Forgot that you are Japanese? Zhang Benzhihe blurted out the Chinese of the interview, panicked and hurriedly changed his words
Hangzhou Asian Games table tennis competition, Chinese men's table tennis and women's table tennis, won the team championship without suspense. I thought that the Japanese men's table tennis would bring a certain threat to the Chinese team, after all, they have the world's fourth superstar Zhang Benzhihe. Unexpectedly, the Japanese team lost to Iran in the quarterfinals, and was swept out. After the game, Tomokazu Changmoto, who is the leader of the team, was also criticized by the Japanese media.

The Japanese media directly criticized Zhang Motochi and dragged his feet, because as a single, he lost to an Iranian player outside the world ranking 200, putting the team in a disadvantageous situation and increasing the pressure on the teammates behind. Sure enough, Hayasuke Togami and Maharu Yoshimura, who were originally superior, also lost to their respective opponents one after another. In three games, all lost 2-3, you can imagine how bad the Japanese men's team's ability to withstand pressure in this battle is.
In fact, the reason why the Japanese media scolded Tomokazu Chang Moto, in addition to the loss of the team competition, there is another important reason. That is, Zhang seems to have forgotten that he is Japanese, and in several interviews with the Chinese media, he answered in a Chinese way, so that when facing the Japanese media, he still blurted out Chinese, and then realized his mistake and rushed to change his words in a panic. In the eyes of the Japanese media, Zhang Benzhihe's subconscious approach cannot be forgiven, because it has been committed many times.
In fact, talking about Chinese in interviews has become a habit for Chang Benzhihe. After all, he and his parents were originally Chinese, and their ancestry was in Sichuan Province, China. At that time, Zhang Benzhihe's father Zhang Yu and mother Zhang Ling were still members of the Chinese table tennis team. However, due to the fierce competition within Guoping, Zhang Yu and his wife chose to go to Japan to develop, and settled in Japan, giving birth to Zhang Benzhi and brothers and sisters.
Later, Zhang Yu decided to become a Japanese citizen and changed his name to Zhang Benyu, while letting his son and daughter also change their nationality. As for his wife Zhang Ling, he retained his Chinese nationality, until last year, Zhang Ling also joined the Japanese nationality and changed his name to Zhang Benling.
In this way, it is not surprising that Zhang Benzhihe can speak fluently Chinese After a World Cup match a few years ago, Zhang Benzhihe blurted out Chinese, and then panicked and quickly changed his words. It is worth mentioning that the Chinese host who asked the question at that time, and there was a Japanese translator next to it, which is equivalent to Zhang Benzhihe actually fully understood the reporter's words, but due to the process, he listened to the Japanese translation again, and the first sentence he said was "I think today's competition..." I have to say that this scene is too embarrassing!
In fact, Zhang Benzhihe likes to talk about Chinese, which is not pleasing to most Chinese fans. Some fans even believe that Zhang Benzhihe only speaks Chinese when he loses the game, and speaks Japanese when he wins, which is the sympathy of Chinese fans. You know, Zhang Benzhihe bluntly said in front of the camera more than once that the goal is to defeat the Chinese team, but he blurted out that this move Chinese now not only annoys Chinese fans, but even the Japanese media is angry.
