In the early morning of January 18, Beijing time, Tianjin setter Yao Di, who had just joined the Italian Scandicci Women's Volleyball Club, made her debut, helping the team win 3-1 against the Zagreb youth team in the 1/8 final of the Europa League. Yao Di is currently teammates with Zhu Ting. At the beginning of 2023, a number of Chinese women's volleyball players have embarked on the road to stay in the ocean. However, with Zhu Ting as a benchmark before, fans were not very satisfied with the performance of other players who stayed abroad. The author believes that we cannot simply compare strength, but still look at the girls going out with a tolerant attitude.
Beijing main attack Jin Ye and Guangdong Ying Chen Peiyan joined the Indonesian Women's Volleyball League Jakarta BIN Club successively, starting the first time of her career in the ocean. In recent years, the Indonesian league has developed rapidly, and players such as Wang Yimei, the core of the Chinese women's volleyball team, Zhang Lei, and Xi Xi, the main player of the national youth team, have all worked hard in the Indonesian league. Chinese women's volleyball players have a gap compared with top players in Europe and the United States, and choosing Asian leagues to exercise is also a way to do so.
The 26-year-old Jin Ye is 1.87 meters tall and won the best receiver at the 2017 Asian Championships. After Cai Bin became the head coach of the Chinese women's volleyball team during the Paris Olympic cycle, he entrusted Jin Ye with a heavy responsibility. In the absence of Zhu Ting and Zhang Changning due to injury, Jin Ye once became the main attack of the team, but her performance in the National League and the World Championship was not satisfactory, and the main position was gradually replaced by Wang Yunbi. Jin Ye, who is controversial in the national team, is eager to play abroad to prove his strength.
Jin Ye's height gives her a certain advantage in attacking and blocking the net, but her low success rate in her debut attack has also attracted harsh criticism from Chinese fans. Some fans said that Zhu Ting, who is also a national player, and Jin Ye, who is healthy, have polarized performances. Jin Ye scored 13 points in her debut, including 44 deductions and 12 turnovers and 7 mistakes, with an offensive success rate of only 27% and an efficiency of only 11%.
Originally, Jin Ye and Zhu Ting were not players of the same grade, so they could not be compared simply with data. On the one hand, coming to a new environment, whether it is competition or life, there is a process of adjustment and adaptation. In addition, for Jin Ye, blindly eating opponents hard by virtue of her height, and the lack of changes in the landing point and line selection are aspects she wants to improve. Because the Indonesian player's back-row defense is very characteristic of Asian teams, the next three starts very quickly, and if you want to improve the smash shooting percentage, you need the main attacker to play smarter.
23-year-old Chen Peiyan is 1.95 meters tall and was once hailed by fans as the most potential "star of hope" in the Chinese women's volleyball team, as early as Lang Ping's coaching of the Chinese women's volleyball team, Chen Peiyan has been selected for the national team many times, but has always been relatively marginal. Even during Cai Bin's tenure, she was dispensable. The reason is that the offensive speed is slow, and the next three technical skills are her weaknesses. Choosing to play in foreign leagues can improve ability, and if she performs well, Chen Peiyan is expected to enter Cai Bin's vision again.
Chen Peiyan played well in her debut against Indonesian Oil Club, scoring a game-high 30 points, 5 of 54 dunks and 5 turnovers, with a success rate of more than 60%. Liuyang's success will build Chen Peiyan's self-confidence. As for some fans sighing, "She is Agnu from Indonesia!" It was too early to say, and I still hoped that she could find her status in a foreign country.
"Liuyang" allows the girls of the Chinese women's volleyball team to go out and see, broaden their horizons, increase their competition experience, and hone their psychological quality. Taking advantage of the time difference between domestic and foreign leagues to play abroad can also help them better stay competitive. Looking forward to the Paris Olympic Games, the Chinese women's volleyball team is in need of new strength, and the marginal players of these national teams take the initiative to step out of their comfort zone, which can not only improve themselves, but also benefit the long-term development of the Chinese women's volleyball team.
