"Malone's ball, I'm not too afraid of him, he's not a big threat to me, the only thing I'll lose to him is that I can't beat him."
"Is Fang Bo colorblind?" No, how can Fang Bo be colorblind? ”
"How to marry Fang Bo?" Forget it, I think don't want to marry, I will regret it when I marry. ”
"Where can I be seen?" Dream! ”
These witty and humorous words came from the mouth of Chen Xuan, the "comedian" of national table tennis. For Chen Xuan, many people may not be familiar with it, but in the history of the Chinese table tennis team, Chen Xuan can be regarded as a stroke of great color, without him, only because his story is really twists and turns, different.
1. Three in and two out of the national team
Chen Xuan's story, starting from the beginning of 1999, the first time into the national second team, that year Chen Xuan was 16 years old, it was the spirited young man, the result was not long after entering the national team, in a team game because of the loss, Chen Xuan angrily dropped the racket, only 18 days was returned to the provincial team by the coach.
After reviewing his mistakes, in April 2000, Chen Xuan once again entered the national second team, and this time, Chen Xuan still could not stay too long, and after half a year of entering the national team, Chen Xuan was returned to the provincial team again because he did not return at night.
In a short period of time, he was returned by the national team twice in a row, Chen Xuan was very hit, after returning to the provincial team this time, he seemed to have changed into a person, he used to be naughty and greedy, and now he is practicing hard every day, and his efforts have soon been rewarded. In the 2002 Table Tennis Super League, Chen Xuan defeated athletes such as Kong Linghui, Liu Guozheng and Qin Zhijian, and with his excellent performance, in November 2002, Chen Xuan was recruited by Liu Guoliang to the national first team, and he was also the first person liu Guoliang to recruit into the national team after retiring as a coach.
2. Chen Xuan/Ma Lin's Athens Olympic Men's Doubles Gold Medal Road
More than half a year after entering the national team, Chen Xuan was favored by Coach Wu Jingping, and he and Liu Guoliang proposed that they wanted to bring Chen Xuan over and pair up with Marlene in doubles. The doubles duo of Chen And Ma Lin soon came together and soon made a name for themselves in various competitions, with Chen Xuan/Ma Lin winning the Men's Doubles Championships at the Korea Open in September 2003 and the ITTF Tour gold medal in December 2003.
Chen Xuan and Ma Lin have paired up for a short time, they have such excellent results, it can be said that it is quite powerful, but even so, in the early stage of the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, the combination of Chen Xuan / Ma Lin was almost impossible to participate in the Olympic Games, when the Chinese team had Wang Liqin / Yan Sen (Sydney Olympic men's doubles champion) in front of the Chinese team, and then there was Wang Hao / Kong Linghui, and the Olympic Games stipulated that each country could only report two pairs of doubles players, and Chen Xuan / Ma Lin, who had just been paired for a year, did not have any advantages.
But at this time, an accident changed the situation at that time, in the early days of the Athens Olympic Games, Yan Sen due to a car accident with a crushing fracture of his right hand, the national table tennis team entered a dilemma, on the one hand, Yan Sen's right hand was injured, and on the other hand, it was a combination that had only been partnered for more than a year. Until the day before the registration deadline for the Athens Olympic Games, the national table tennis leaders finally made a decision after consultation and let the two pairs play a game.
On that day, under the gaze of several leaders and coaches of the national table tennis team, the two pairs engaged in a fierce fight, and in the end, Chen Xuan/Ma Lin won 4:2. At the end of the game, no matter whether they won or lost, they all couldn't help but shed tears. Liu Guoliang later said in an interview that he could not help but cry at that time. He said that Yan Sen had a crushing fracture of his right hand at that time, but he still practiced desperately, and he also performed very well in the game of the day. They lost the game, and for Yan Sen, maybe his career as an athlete was over.
When we were eating together, Yan Sen said to Chen Xuan, with our hopes, we must win the gold medal back. In this way, the combination of Chen Xuan/ Ma Lin got the ticket to the Olympic Games and embarked on the Athens Olympic Journey with the expectations of his teammates.
In the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, Wang Hao / Kong Linghui was out of the cold, the hopes of the Chinese table tennis men's doubles were all pressed on Chen Xuan / Ma Lin's body, Chen Xuan, who participated in the Olympic Games for the first time, performed well, in the strong hands like clouds, and Marlene reached the final together, winning the men's doubles gold medal, which is also the only gold medal in Chinese men's table tennis at the Athens Olympic Games.
3. The first person to raise pigs in national table tennis - Chen Xuan
At that time, Chen Xuan became famous in a battle, because of his domineering and fierce playing, he was called "Killing God" by fans, and Chen Xuan was really popular among thousands of fans, and he was once named the title of "Face Value" of the national table tennis men's team. However, in the hearts of the majority of fans, the most impressive thing is probably not Chen Xuan's sword eyebrow star, nor Chen Xuan's title of "killing god", but should be Chen Xuan's pig raising incident.
In 2006, when Chen Xuan participated in the table tennis Asian Cup in Japan, he lost to Wang Hao in the men's singles final, and Chen Xuan, who lost the ball, lost his emotions, threw the racket on the ground on the spot, and kicked a chair on the side of the field, and when he walked out of the stadium, he still cursed and grinned, which made many spectators very dissatisfied with him, which also caused a very bad impact.
The national table tennis team quickly punished Chen Xuan, ordering him to immediately apologize to the people of the whole country, and sentenced him to stay in the team for half a year, fines and other punishments, in addition, there is another punishment, that is, sent to poor rural areas to farm for a week to temper his mind. There, Chen Xuan not only had to go to the fields to do farm work, but also had to feed the pigs and do other work. This caused a big sensation at the time, after all, the Olympic champion raised pigs, everyone saw it for the first time, and even CCTV went to make a documentary at that time.
Even if he was punished to feed the pigs to farm, Chen Xuan did not change his true character as a comedian, and some villagers asked him: "Why are you here?" Chen Xuan was serious: "I have come here to study." The villagers were surprised: "You came here to study?" Chen Xuan continued a serious flicker: "My family has opened an acre of land, I want to learn from you, I also planted some myself." ”
4. The new life of "killing god" Chen Xuan, from daily sunbathing to daily sunbathing of his daughter
Chen Xuan's comedian nature is not only reflected in his speech, but also in his actions, Liu Guoliang once said: "Once Chen Xuan used to play well, when he was queuing for comments, he stood in the first row and pulled his neck to watch. Once you can't play well, immediately stand in the second row and hide behind your head so that you can't see. If Chen Xuan loses the ball, he doesn't even go to the canteen, if he wins, where I play, where he hangs out, one will be in front of me and one will be behind me, I don't have to ask Chen Xuan if he wins or loses, you can see it as soon as you eat. ”
Chen Xuan's violent temper is only in the arena, he is witty and humorous in life, and he gets along very well with his teammates. After Chen Xuan retired in 2014, he returned to his hometown as the coach of the men's table tennis team in Jiangsu Province. At the age of 36, Chen Xuan was recalled by Liu Guoliang to work as a coach in the national team, and is now Xu Xin's head coach, and the two have changed from former teammates to current mentors and apprentices. When Xu Xin participated in the competition, Chen Xuan stood on the sidelines and gently encouraged, appearing more nervous than Xu Xin.
Today's Chen Xuan also has his own happy small family, before the birth of his daughter, Chen Xuan's social account can often see Xu Xin's figure, after the birth of his daughter, his social account is basking in his daughter's daily life. Netizens joked: "So, love will shift, right?" ”
