This is not only a clear violation of the rules of the game, but also involves the disrespect of the opponent Wang Yidi. This unexpected event suddenly added some puzzling factors to the originally glorious game.
The cost of non-compliance

Chen Xingtong's mobile phone behavior is not only illegal, but also disrespectful to the entire competition environment. Such behavior not only aroused doubts from the outside world, but also caused her to be severely sanctioned within the national table tennis, which is undoubtedly worse for her who is preparing for the Paris Olympics.
The pressure to be selected for the Olympics
Chen Xingtong is 26 years old and has yet to participate in the Olympics in her table tennis career. At a time when competition is heating up for the Paris Olympics' selection list, her infractions could make the coaching staff even more critical of her. Missing out on the tournament in Nagoya means she won't be able to add to her stakes with a win, which will be a challenge for the upcoming Olympic selections.
Choices that determine future prospects

On the international stage, every move represents the image of the entire country, and this mistake may affect the reputation of her future and the entire national table tennis team. As the Paris Olympics approached, she faced not only fierce competition from her opponents, but also a crossroads in her own career.
Chen Xingtong's behavior in this competition makes people can't help but ask: Will she be able to successfully enter the Paris Olympic list? Will this violation of the law become a stumbling block in her career? How will the national table tennis coaching staff deal with this unexpected situation? Under the halo, every choice of an athlete may affect his future, and Chen Xingtong's choice this time is destined to arouse more attention and discussion.
