Chapter 673: Nonsense? Hidden Clumsiness! (Please Subscribe)

Before the start of the city competition, Wanbao Video specially opened a new section on the website for live broadcast and replay of the "Wanbao Cup" tennis series events.

At the same time, Jiangchuan TV Station also broadcasts live broadcasts or videos of the games during non-prime time periods.

But it's a pity...

Although the previous rounds of games were broadcast live, the number of viewers was not large. Most of the viewers were fresh and would not watch for too long.

This is also normal.

After all, no one can understand serious professional tennis matches and are not very interested in them, let alone the even worse tennis matches for middle school students.

But that was a non-popular game.

Thanks to the increasing popularity of the animation "Prince of Tennis", many schools that were not well-known have become well-known to thousands of netizens after the animation was broadcast.

Therefore, they have become an "Internet celebrity" school by leveraging the popularity of animation, attracting much attention.

In ordinary schools, people may not be interested. But if it is a well-known school like Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School and Lele Middle School, many people will watch the game.

When it comes to the city finals, the opponents are "star" schools like Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School and Jiangchuan No. 2 Middle School, so the competition must be very exciting.

Take webcasting as an example.

In the live broadcast room opened by Wanbao Video website, more than 157,000 viewers are watching the live broadcast of the finals, and the number continues to increase.

Wanbao official, in order to better hype this "Jiangchuan Derby" battle, built momentum on major forums and social platforms two days in advance to encourage everyone to guess the final winner.

One thing is unexpected.

Even though Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School is a super dark horse, even though Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School is the school where the protagonist of the animation "Prince of Tennis" goes, even though Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School has talented players like Shen Chao...

But the vast majority of netizens, including pure passers-by, all think that the winner of this Jiangchuan Derby will be Jiangchuan No. 2 Middle School, which has stronger overall strength.

"why?"

Some netizens from other places didn’t know much about the situation of these two schools. When they saw that the second guess on the betting page was almost overwhelming, they asked with confusion.

Jiangchuan netizens quickly explained.

They said that although Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School defeated Yulin Middle School this time and reached the finals of the city's competition, the runner-up was already at the top.

It’s hard to win the championship!

It is undeniable that Shen Chao, the current deputy director of the Tennis Department of Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School, is a bug-level player whose strength is much higher than the average. However, no matter how strong he is, he can only win one game.

Doubles is an absolute disadvantage.

In previous games, Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School exposed this problem. Compared with doubles in other schools, Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School is indeed less interesting.

They are very strong in isolation, anyone has to admit that...

But if it doesn't work in doubles, it won't work. After all, skills can be improved out of thin air, but tacit understanding and coordination require years of training. There is no shortcut.

Why is Jiangchuan No. 2 Middle School so strong?

On the one hand, their number one doubles player turned out to be an extremely rare twin brother. Needless to say, the twins have a tacit understanding.

On the other hand, the No. 2 doubles team is also a junior high school team that has worked together for at least two years and participated in more than 100 games together.

Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School may not be able to win either of these two doubles matches, which is directly equivalent to giving up.

"Be optimistic!"

"If you can't do doubles, don't you still have singles? As long as you win all three singles games, the game will still be won in one."

Ma Kui, who accompanied Mr. Gu to watch the game and was responsible for awarding the runner-up prize, consoled him.

Hearing this, Gu Miao shook her head.

What Ma Kui said is indeed true. Even if he loses all the doubles, as long as he wins all the singles, Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School will still have a chance of winning.

But the problem is...

Among the singles list of Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School, only Shen Chao can secure a point. As for the remaining Feng Ge and Shi Chenglin, neither of them can be said to be a sure winner.

This game is difficult!

…

The court hosting this "Jiangchuan Derby" is the No. 1 tennis court of Jiangchuan Municipal Gymnasium.

The time came to ten o'clock.

There is no so-called speech from the leader, and there is no so-called pre-game performance. When the referee is in place, the game officially begins.

The first game is doubles one.

Jiangchuan No. 2 Middle School sent out their proud twin brothers and easily won the first game.

Next up is a double on two.

Gu Miao, who was still sleepy and thought that this game was probably a loss, suddenly became energetic when she saw Feng Ge wearing the blue and white glory uniform of No. 1 Middle School entering the court.

"Wait a minute!"

"This person... I remember he is the director of the tennis department of Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School. His name is Feng Ge, right?" Gu Miao asked.

"Yes! It's him!"

Ma Kui took out the list of players in his hand, glanced at it and said: "He is a minister and a singles player in No. 1 Middle School. Why did he go to play doubles?"

"How would I know?"

Temporarily changing the formation and letting the original singles players play doubles, is this the special arrangement made by Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School for No. 2 Middle School?

What a nonsense!

Doubles requires more tacit understanding and cooperation. Isn't it sheer nonsense to let a player who is accustomed to singles play doubles?

Is there such a plot in the animation?

Stop it!

The animation is for plot needs, so the troops are often arranged like this, but in real games, singles and doubles cannot be rotated so easily.

"Who is the coach of No. 1 Middle School? How dare he arrange it like this? It would be better to give up and give the championship to No. 2 Middle School!"

"Coach? No!"

Ma Kui said with a smile: "As far as I know, the Tennis Department of No. 1 Middle School does not have a coach, and the training plan is formulated by their deputy director Shen Chao."

Classmate Shen Chao? !

Gu Miao, who was already quite angry, frowned instantly after learning that Shen Chao was actually the acting coach of No. 1 Middle School.

"What happened?"

"Shen Chao is a kid in the first grade of junior high school. What kind of training does he know? How does he know how to arrange troops? He..."

Before he finished speaking, the situation on the field suddenly changed.

The combination that Gu Miao didn't like and thought was a fool suddenly showed off its power and defeated the golden doubles combination of No. 2 Middle School, even leading the score by a small margin.

Gu Miao: "..."

seriously?

Who is Fengge's partner? Why do they have such a good rapport? Playing so well? Nothing like a makeshift tag team?

Is it a secret weapon?

Gu Miao, who felt that something was fishy, ​​still couldn't believe it until the end of the game when No. 1 Middle School defeated No. 2 Middle School with a score of 6:4 and won the Doubles No. 2 match.

All right!

What was even more incredible was yet to come. When Shi Chenglin, who was playing three singles, came on the court and displayed the so-called "two-knife style" on the court, beating his opponent to shame, Gu Miao was also stunned.

This guy is left-handed?

He's left-handed! As a result, I have been returning the ball with my right hand in the previous games. Is this the most classic clumsiness in the animated "Prince of Tennis"?

broken!

Everyone seems to have underestimated the strength of Jiangchuan No. 1 Middle School. Judging from this, they are fully qualified to compete for the East China Championship, and even the final national championship...
