In the history of the Asian Games, almost all the dramatic stories are concentrated in this Hangzhou Asian Games. This time, the country that plays an important role is none other than our "old friend" - Japan.
The scene of a Japanese table tennis player, ranked fourth in the world, being defeated by an Iranian player outside the world ranking 200 is embarrassing. However, the drama is not limited to the playing field, its impact has spread to social media and people's lives.
The drama of this story lies in the fact that it has been described by netizens as such a vivid metaphor that it has attracted widespread attention. Even disciplined national team athletes can't suppress their laughter, which can't be ignored.
Let's dig deeper and find out how the Iranian media reported their "complete victory" in this competition, and how the Japanese side saw this incident as their "shame" and went down in history.
However, unexpectedly, the drama was staged at the opening ceremony of the Hangzhou Asian Games. The athletes' entry session is usually full of passion and unity, but this time, it brought an unusual scene.
At that time, the Japanese delegation resolutely took a step forward after hearing the command on the radio. Silence hung over the audience, perhaps because the audience was already too tired of cheering for other countries. However, when the Chinese team entered the stadium, the entire stadium immediately erupted into cheers and excitement, which was simply full of people.
This moment is a cause for concern, as the performance of the Japanese team is likely influenced by this atmosphere, and this match is so important that it will determine whether they can reach the quarterfinals of the men's table tennis team.
In this competition, we witnessed a fierce duel between "Japanese prodigy" Zhang Benzhi and Iran's Alamien, as well as athlete Ma Long from China. Mr. Malone happened to lose a game in the game, which sparked cheers from the global network, and even Chinese fans applauded. However, the most shocking thing is yet to come.
The Iranian player, sitting at the table next to Mallon, suddenly jumped up with excitement and started running, and even his coach jumped into the room and hugged him tightly. At the same time, Jang Benjiwa appears in the picture, his appearance looks very funny, his head is held in his hands, his waist is also bent, and if people who are not aware of his appearance may mistakenly think that he is looking for teeth on the ground. The athletes of the national team couldn't help but laugh when they saw this scene.
In the end, Malone suddenly realized the fact that Tomokazu Chang suffered a terrible defeat in the tournament, which led to the eventual elimination of the Japanese team. However, how can this scene make all the fans in the room laugh? Even when Fukuhara Ai was beaten to tears by Zhang Yining, everyone did not show such a strong reaction.
Behind this incident, there is a deeper social background. China's pressure and sanctions against Japan have made Japan feel pressure, even to the point of being "beaten to tears". Fukuhara loves this Japanese athlete, and everyone will definitely not feel strange when they mention it. However, I believe you all remember the scene when she was beaten to tears by the "Great Devil" Zhang Yining. Ai Fukuhara burst into tears on the spot due to the fiasco, and was full of grief. She also couldn't help choking in the following interview. However, this scene made Fukuhara Ai herself feel very embarrassed, and the athletes and fans next to him not only did not laugh, but also showed deep sympathy.
However, when it comes to Chang Benzhihe, people's attitudes are completely different. Perhaps this is due to Chang's previous behavior and his "special status". Although Chang is now Japanese, he has Chinese blood in his blood. He is indeed from Sichuan, not only his parents are Chinese, but he is also a table tennis player. Regrettably, however, Tomokazu Chang's parents traveled to Japan early in search of development opportunities.
When Tomokazu Chang was interviewed after the game, he spoke both Japanese and Chinese, and this situation also occurred. Netizens even joked: "Once Chang Motochiwa wins the match, he will speak in Japanese; If you lose the game, you will switch to Chinese. "However, the funniest thing is yet to come.
As one of the most heart-wrenching athletes in this Asian Games, Zhang Benzhihe has repeatedly lost in the competition, and has been called synonymous with "shame" by netizens around the world. It should be understood that Iran's previous strength in table tennis was not outstanding and could not occupy a place on the world table tennis stage. The last time they won a medal was 65 years ago. Although Chang has "admitted guilt", he is convinced that other factors have influenced him, which led to this result.
Iranian fans were cheering from the sidelines. Although Tomokazu Zhang told the truth, Japanese netizens did not believe his views. Now, there are rumors on the Internet that he has been "viciously spoken and fiercely criticized" by the Japanese. Even Japanese table tennis player Hayabusa Mizutani publicly commented on the Internet: "Iran's defeat of Japan is really incredible." ”
It can be seen that the attitude of the Japanese media towards Changmoto Tomokazu is not friendly. However, when we turn to the Iranian side, it can be said that the whole country is celebrating. Some people smile, others frown. Iran has a striking feature at this Olympic Games. On the podium, athletes from all countries are in teams of five, except for Iran, which has only three lone athletes.
However, these three warriors tenaciously broke through one obstacle after another and eventually managed to escape the predicament. When the medal was awarded, they felt excited and nervous. In the ensuing group photo session, they couldn't help but shed tears and kept reminding their partners to look at the camera. They won glory for the country and won glory!
At that time, a man from Iran shouted in a fluent Chinese in the crowd: "Let Iran refuel, let China refuel." Iranian netizens cheered and blessed not only on the Internet, but also on their official website. They are all transmitting happy moods. Imagine that Zhang Benzhihe must be like a knife in his heart.
In the military, victories and defeats are frequent occurrences. I hope that Zhang Benzhihe can maintain an optimistic attitude. Final summary For thousands of years, victory or defeat in the arena often hangs in the balance. Chang's defeat in this tournament may have been due to his underestimation of his opponent, or because he was originally a player who performed well against strong opponents and was relatively weak against weak teams. After experiencing this "lesson", I believe that Zhang Benzhihe will surely exercise greater strength. He has a lot of potential for the future.
In any case, the dramatic story of this Asian Games has left a deep mark on the history of sports and has also sparked different views and discussions. What are everyone's different views on Japan's "defeat" this time? The outcome of this match is a mixture of factors, whether it is Chang's special identity or the unexpected victory of the Iranian team, which makes the story even more colorful. I hope we can learn from this and cherish the spirit of competitive sports and the joys and sorrows brought about by international sporting events.
