The Chinese Table Tennis Association announced the list of representatives for the Paris Olympics on the 14th, and the women's singles representatives, who had been entangled until the end, caused controversy. Among the women's singles players, world No. 1 Sun Yingsha and Tokyo Olympic gold medalist Chen Meng were selected in the singles squad for the Paris Olympics. Wang Manyu, who competed with Chen Meng for the last singles spot, became an important member of the women's team competition.

Wang Manyu won the World Championships and was recognized as a Japanese table tennis killer, once ahead of Chen Meng in the Olympic women's singles trials. However, after the national table tennis women's team narrowly defeated Japan in the team final of the World Table Tennis Championships in Busan in February, it suddenly introduced the Olympic selection system of "deducting points if you lose to foreign associations". As a result, in the last leg of the 2024 WTT Grand Slam Saudi Arabia in the final leg of the selection tournament, Wang Manyu lost to the Indian monster player Batra in the women's singles round.

Zhang Xuefeng just wants to fight for Wang Manyu, and said that it doesn't matter if you don't go to the Olympics in singles, I invite you to come to our company to endorse.

Wang Manyu's fans strongly protested the "theft of Olympic tickets" online, and caused an uproar, with Zhang Xuefeng, an expert in the field of education, expressing support for Wang on Weibo. According to domestic media reports, Zhang Xuefeng posted: "Wang Manyu is his hometown, he is the pride of Qiqihar, he has played the key points in key games, without the strength of his fellow countrymen to turn the tide, there would have been no so-called national table tennis hegemon!" This is his favorite female athlete, and he likes Wang Manyu, not only because Wang Manyu is his hometown, but more importantly, Wang Manyu can really stand up and bear it at critical moments. It doesn't matter if you can play singles or not, but sooner or later, please ask you to be the spokesperson of our company. ”

Zhang Xuefeng spoke out at this time and was questioned about taking advantage of marketing and consumption of national table tennis.

As soon as Zhang Xuefeng said this, he immediately appeared on the Weibo hot search list. Although there were also voices praising Zhang Xuefeng, some people criticized that "this is just using table tennis to create a topic", and Zhang Xuefeng subsequently deleted the post. After that, he once again told other social networking sites that the final result of the selection was unfair, and announced that no matter what the result was, Wang Manyu would be given 1 million yuan as a bonus.

Japanese media also paid attention to the progress of the matter, and said, "Although Wang Manyu will only participate in the team event at the Paris Olympics, with the support of fans, she will undoubtedly become a difficult opponent for the Japanese women's table tennis team." ”
