Recently, the national table tennis team ended its journey at the WTT Championships and finally won the gold medal in the women's singles, while the men's singles side suffered a total annihilation and did not win a gold medal. Under such circumstances, many fans are naturally very dissatisfied with the performance of national table tennis. On the other hand, this time Lin Yunru won the championship in an unexpected upset and became the biggest winner of this competition.
After the game, Lin Yunru was very happy and smiling all the time, and he probably didn't expect that he could upset so many masters to stand on the top podium and set the best result of his career. For Lin Yunru, this is undoubtedly a very happy night. However, I never expected that after winning the championship this time, Lin Yunru was criticized by many domestic fans because of some controversial behaviors in the post-game interview, and was even scolded on the hot search for a time.
At that time, when Lin Yunru was interviewed by the media after the game, when the reporter asked a question in English, he directly answered in English instead of Chinese. Such behavior has been questioned by some fans, and it is believed that there is a suspicion of admiring foreign countries. Including in many previous games, he basically insisted on answering questions from foreign reporters in English, and many fans were naturally very dissatisfied with his approach. In contrast, Ma Long is awe-inspiring, usually after playing abroad to win the championship, he has always insisted on interviewing in Chinese, and then let the official translator on the scene translate into English, and then speak to the fans in the stadium. In contrast, Ma Long's approach seems to be more liked by fans.
It is precisely because of this controversial behavior that Lin Yunru did not get the blessing of too many domestic fans even if he won the championship.
Of course, to be honest, if you look at it from an objective point of view, some fans are indeed a bit bit sharp about Lin Yunru's English-speaking problem. After all, after Lin Yunru won the championship, he also spoke Chinese in interviews with domestic media, but sometimes he was interviewed by foreign reporters, and it was not surprising that he would speak English for the sake of respect for the other party and for the convenience of other foreign fans. Including many athletes in other fields of the Chinese team who compete abroad, many times they are also interviewed by the media in English, and there is no need to insist on being interviewed in Chinese at any time on any occasion, and there is no need to criticize the players.
Besides, since he came to the mainland to participate in training camps, including competitions, etc., the atmosphere of getting along with other domestic players is very good, and he has always recognized this big family and Chinese culture. Therefore, I hope that some fans will not be angry with other players because the Chinese team lost the championship, which will only annoy others and even provoke disgust, and in the end it will not be beneficial for our national table tennis.
We should take a correct view of the gains and losses of national table tennis, this loss of the championship is that the level of performance is not good, the players are not in good shape, we can send blessings to the opponent in a grand manner.
