In recent years, Japanese women's table tennis has continuously introduced so-called genius girls born in the 2000s. Miwa Harimoto, who is only 10 years old, has also begun to appear in youth competitions, but Chinese women's table tennis does not lack talent.

Japanese women’s table tennis has continuously introduced so-called post-00s genius girls in recent years. Miwa Harimoto, who is only 10 years old, has also begun to appear in youth competitions, but Chinese women’s table tennis does not lack talent. The 14-year-old female table tennis flower Chen Yi rose to prominence in 2018. She has won four women's singles championships this year and is the little devil in the U15 age group.

Chen Yi is a player trained by the China Table Tennis Academy. She was born in 2004 and came to the China Table Tennis Academy in 2013. She has always been at the top level in her age group nationwide. Chen Yi won the National Youth Competition (Southern Division) singles championship in 2016. In 2017, he won the fifth place in the singles of the National Youth Championship.

In 2018, this little flower will bloom to its fullest. She won the women's singles championship at the Czech Youth Open, Italian Youth Open, Thailand Youth Open and Hong Kong Youth Open, as well as the team championship.

Today's women's table tennis is facing a confrontation between China and Japan. Especially in youth competitions, Japan vigorously cultivates young players, which has had a huge impact on China's reserve force. Fortunately, the rise of Chen Yi enabled the Chinese women's table tennis to defeat the Japanese women's table tennis in the U15 age group. In the Hong Kong competition, Chen Yi swept Japanese youngster Akae Natsuki 3-0 in the final to win the championship. In previous games, Chijiang Xiaxing defeated two Chinese teenagers, Li Yuqi and Yang Yiyun. However, Chen Yi held on to the last hurdle.

Chen Yi played against Zhang Benmei in the women's team competition in July this year, and she won 3-0. Chen Yi seems to be the nemesis of Japanese genius girls. 14-year-old Chen Yi is a fierce player and already has a domineering attitude about her. She has won four championships in one year, making her like a little devil.

Chen Yi, who has successfully entered the second team of the National Table Tennis Team, will usher in a bigger stage. She will train and compete with more high-level teammates, which will help promote her faster progress. Chen Yi is too young to participate in the Tokyo Olympics. But after the Tokyo Olympics, Ding Ning and Liu Shiwen may retire, which means that the Chinese women's table tennis team will undergo a round of rotation. Chen Yi will sprint for and for the 2024 Paris Olympics.

China's current talent reserve for women's table tennis is good. Olympic champions Ding Ning and Liu Shiwen are experienced. Zhu Yuling and Chen Meng of the Mesozoic generation are making progress, and the new generation has emerged. Wang Manyu, Sun Yingsha, Chen Xingtong, He Zhuojia and others. In the second women's table tennis team, there are also Shi Xunyao, Chen Yi and other young players. The echelon construction is very good.

The Japanese women's table tennis team shouted the so-called slogan of winning the Olympic gold medal in 2020, but it is basically impossible for them to achieve their goal. With the rise of the little devil Chen Yi, the Japanese women's table tennis team will not have a chance at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
