Old Ni Xialian and Little Sun Yingsha, a table tennis duel spanning 37 years, I am addicted to watching! What kind of Olympic arena is this, it is clearly a realistic version of the "Ping Pong" movie! It's just that the script seems to be a little off from expectations - it should have been a scene where a veteran performs a stunt and a young man almost overturns, but it has become a "violent destruction" show for a little girl.
Not to mention the result of this game, the age difference alone is enough to make people's jaws drop. 37 years old, friends! What does this mean? It means that when Sun Yingsha was still a toddler, Ni Xialian was already dominating the international arena. When Sun Yingsha was still scratching her ears and cheeks for elementary school math problems, Ni Xialian may have been thinking about retirement. This is simply a "generation-skipping" PK!
But then again, the 61-year-old Ni Xialian's ability to stand on the Olympic stage is already a remarkable achievement. Think about it, at this age, most people may be doing Tai Chi slowly in the park, but Ni Xialian is still winning glory for the country. The spirit of this "evergreen tree in table tennis" is worth learning from all of us.
Let's talk about Sun Yingsha, this post-00s girl really doesn't talk about martial arts! swept the predecessors 4-0 and scored 11-1, which was simply a "violent aesthetics" on the field. However, this also reflects the strength of the new generation of national table tennis. It seems that the "generation gap" of our national table tennis is not ordinarily deep!
But, let's not forget, this game is about much more than just winning or losing. It is a confrontation between two generations of table tennis players, a collision of experience and vitality, and the inheritance of sportsmanship. Ni Xialian told us with her persistence: as long as you love it, age is never a problem. And Sun Yingsha proved with her performance that the new generation is taking over the baton and is ready.
At the end of the day, this game taught us a vivid life lesson. It tells us that no matter how old or young you are, as long as you have a dream, you should be brave enough to chase it; At the same time, we have to learn to respect our opponents and everyone who is still fighting on the field.
Finally, I can't help but ask: in the face of such a showdown that spans nearly 40 years, do you also feel the magic of time? Are you also impressed by this never-say-die sportsmanship? Perhaps, this is what the Olympic Games are all about – it is not only a sporting event, but also a stage for us to think about life and strive for excellence.
