Traitor! Japanese table tennis Zhang Benzhihe said: I am not Chinese, after winning the championship, thank You for Japan's cultivation

In the recent men's singles final of the WTT Budapest Championships, Japanese teenager Zhang Benzhihe, born in 2003, reversed and defeated China's Lin Gaoyuan!

Zhang Benzhihe broke the championship drought and thanked the people around him after winning the championship.

"Thanks to the support of the Japanese team and my family, I was able to get back on my feet.

It's not just my own strength, but with everyone's help, I've been able to get to where I am today. ”

According to Japanese media reports, Zhang Benzhi and tearfully accepted the interview.

He believes that it's not just because he doesn't give up that he'll gain something.

The match was a blessing and he thanked the Staff of the Japanese team and their families for their support.

Many Chinese fans don't like this young man named Zhang Benzhihe.

Zhang Benzhi and pre-game always like to talk big, and always shout to beat the Chinese team every time they play!

Coupled with Zhang Benzhihe's special status, many Chinese fans do not like him at all, and some even call him a traitor, a traitor and so on.

What kind of person is Zhang Benzhihe?

Why was he able to reverse and beat Lin Gaoyuan in the final?

Remember that at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, when Lang Ping led the American women's volleyball team to defeat the Chinese women's volleyball team, there was a lot of criticism in China, denouncing Lang Ping as a traitor to the women's volleyball team.

But it is undeniable that it is precisely because Lang Ping brought out such a powerful opponent as the American team that the Chinese women's volleyball team rose to the challenge, faced the enemy squarely, and defeated the enemy.

Today, the biggest enemy of Chinese table tennis is Japan.

And Zhang Benzhihe is the representative of the Japanese teenagers after 00.

Speaking of Zhang Benzhihe, many Chinese fans do not buy it.

After all, this table tennis prodigy with ancestral roots in Sichuan, China, has repeatedly spoken out in front of the media, and even arrogantly said that he wanted to defeat chinese male table tennis.

So when Zhang Benzhihe came to China to participate in the game, many fans even had difficulty hiding their anger and reprimanded him for forgetting his roots.

Zhang Benzhihe, the father's name is Zhang Benyu, and the mother's name is Zhang Benling (formerly known as Zhang Yu and Zhang Ling, respectively).

They were all table tennis players from the Chinese Sichuan team.

Zhang Benzhihe has a younger sister named Zhang Meihe, who also changed his name to Zhang Benmeihe.

Both parents are table tennis players and have good strength.

His mother even entered the national team in her glory days and was a teammate with Deng Yaping.

However, as we all know, China's table tennis masters are like clouds and can be produced, but there are very few places to represent China in international competitions every time.

Chinese players want to represent the Chinese team, and they must compete with Chinese players for a long time, select the strong among the strong, and select the best of the best.

So it will be easier for Chinese players to beat foreign players.

As a child, Zhang Benzhihe had already shown his talent and received attention from the Japan Table Tennis Association.

Zhang Benzhihe began to pick up the racket to practice at the age of two.

With the blessing of talent and hard work, he gradually became famous.

However, he never considered himself a genius, but considered himself the worst of the three main forces in Japan.

When Zhang Benzhihe loses the game, he will not be discouraged, but will quickly pick up his mood and prepare to win back next time.

Like he said "I have a lot of games I don't want to lose and I wish I could try to forget these annoying things."

However, the scene of losing can be forgotten, and the feeling of unwillingness must be remembered.

If this reluctance is tied to a strong desire to 'win next time,' we can actively face the trough. ”

Zhang Benzhihe was born and raised in Japan, and his talent for table tennis is particularly prominent.

In order to become a professional player, Zhang Benzhihe offered to become a Japanese citizen in 2014, and then his sister and father changed their nationality, and his mother changed her nationality after a gap of five years.

Zhang Benzhihe's naturalization in the first few years can be described as smooth sailing, and he has repeatedly achieved good results on the field. He also defeated the national table tennis Grand Slam player Zhang Jike.

Japanese netizens gave him a hot review, calling him a "hero".

Zhang Benzhihe's mother, Zhang Ling, said in an interview with Japanese media that it was Zhang Benzhihe who offered to join the Japanese nationality and participate in the Japanese professional league.

Zhang Ling's first reaction was to categorically refuse, but after a fierce ideological struggle, she finally agreed to Zhang Benzhihe's request.

Zhang Ling also said in the interview that although her son chose to naturalize in Japan, she did not want her son to forget the roots of his heart.

So when naming his son, he added the word "Ben" to remind him that he had Chinese blood.

So Zhang Benzhihe's sister Zhang Benmeihe, the word "Ben" in her name, is also a reminder that she does not forget the meaning of the root?

Although her son became a Japanese citizen, in an interview, Ms. Zhang said she was still a Chinese national.

This is to prove to the outside world that they are actually patriotic.

However, in 2019, the name of Zhang Benzhihe's sister Zhang Benmeihe appeared in the table tennis competition list announced by the Japan Table Tennis Association.

Zhang Benmeihe's mother, Zhang Ling, was also on the list of accompanying people, but at this time, Zhang Ling's name was changed to Zhang Benling.

Before the Hungarian Open, Zhang Benzhihe lost successively and was in a worrying state.

Without national table tennis, Zhang Benzhihe won the Hungarian Open in the end.

After winning this gold medal, Zhang Benzhihe was very happy.

He gave the championship flower to his mother, Zhang Ling, and took a photo with her.

Zhang Ling also smiled and faced the camera.

Many fans are also very concerned about Zhang Ling's current situation, because she is the only member of the Zhang family who has not previously joined the Japanese nationality.

However, Zhang Ling has silently changed her name to "Zhang Benling", which means that she has become a Japanese citizen.

In other words, all four members of her family have changed their surnames to "Zhang Ben".

In an interview after a game, Zhang Benzhihe answered questions in Japanese, which disappointed many Chinese fans, believing that he was a traitor to Chinese table tennis.

His father couldn't resist answering the question.

Because he settled in Japan to do table tennis related work, in the case of his son's excellent table tennis talent, he decided to let him continue to learn table tennis skills.

However, due to japanese regulations at that time, if you are not Japanese, there is a limit to the number of matches.

In order not to affect Zhang Benzhihe, but also for the future of his son, Zhang Yu considered for a long time before deciding to change his son's nationality to Japanese nationality.

After listening to his father Zhang Yu's explanation, he seemed to understand the reason for Zhang Benzhi and changing his nationality.

For the sustainable development of Zhang Benzhihe, Zhang Benyu has also consulted with Japanese table tennis and must personally give Zhang Benzhihe lessons every week.

In the finals, Zhang Benzhi and his parents were there to cheer him on.

Zhang Benzhihe also bluntly said in an interview that this was a great encouragement to him.

Behind his success, his parents' efforts were absolute.

Speaking of future goals, Zhang Benzhihe said he wanted to win the gold medal at the Olympic Games.

In the past, everyone may think that he was too arrogant, but now it seems that Zhang Benzhihe does have such strength.

Although most people cannot accept Zhang Benzhi and the family's behavior, Liu Guoliang still reveals his helplessness.

He feels that Zhang Benzhihe cannot enter the national team in China, and his parents are both table tennis players, and he definitely hopes that his children can develop well.

Not being in the national team means he will never win the championship.

Joining Japan, a country whose table tennis strength is not very strong, allows him to quickly become the main force of the country, even the top table tennis player.

I have to say that Liu's opinion is very convincing.

At the same time, he also believes that the state should vigorously promote professional table tennis leagues, which can effectively avoid the loss of sports talents.

What do you think of this statement?
