For the rising star of national table tennis, Kuo Man, although she was eliminated in this game, as the hopeful star of the national table tennis women's team, she still received the focus of training by the coaching staff.
However, what makes people angry is that many Chinese audiences on the field are cheering for Tian Zhixi, but there are not many voices cheering for Kuo Man, indeed, Kuo Man has caused a lot of controversy because of her arrogance, including calling Sun Yingsha "that woman", and commenting on the controversy that Ma Long is old, but she is Chinese after all, representing the national table tennis.
As for Tian Zhixi, she does have a high emotional intelligence and is very good at currying favor with Chinese fans on social media, but don't forget, she is no longer from Hebei, and she and our Sasha are not fellow countrymen, she is an authentic Korean.
Tian Zhixi, formerly known as Tian Minwei, the name Tian Zhixi is translated to adapt to Korean culture, and now she is a Chinese-Korean female table tennis player, Tian Zhixi was born in Langfang City, Hebei Province, China in 1992, and was once a player of the second national table tennis team, but she was unwilling to be a sparring partner for the main force of national table tennis like He Zhuojia, and officially chose to join the Korean nationality in January 2011, thus starting the career of a Korean table tennis player.
Although there are many immature places, she has also contributed to the national table tennis, and has also partnered with Lin Shidong to win the mixed doubles of the World Table Tennis Championships, while Tian Zhixi is to win the qualification for the Paris Olympics.
Therefore, it was difficult enough for Kuaiman to beat Tian Zhixi, and some of our viewers are still supporting Tian Zhixi, which is really chilling.
