Jinling Evening News (Reporter Tian Yuanpu) After last year's Suzhou World Table Tennis Championships, Ma Long, who won the men's singles championship for the first time and Ding Ning, who successfully defended the women's singles championship, were invited to attend a fan meeting, and more than a hundred "Dragon Fruits" and "Dingdang" had close contact with their idols. During the event, Ma Long once joked that he and Ding Ning had been "married" for three years.
A year later, when "wife" Ding Ning won his first Olympic women's singles championship the next day, "husband" Ma Long also stood on the highest podium for the men's singles in the Olympic table tennis team. Coincidentally, both of them completed the Grand Slam after defeating the defending champion of the London Olympics. They can be said to be "woman" singing "husband".
is just one piece away from Olympic gold medal. Malone got what he wanted.
28-year-old Malone is currently at his peak. He will be 32 years old in the Tokyo Olympics four years later. His own injuries and the impact of young juniors are two major problems for him. Therefore, this year's Rio Olympics is the best and last chance for Malone. At the same time, he is also his first and only chance. In the semi-finals, Ma Long and Zhang Jike met in the final. Facing the "Tibetan Mastiff" born in the same year as him, the Dragon Team won 4:0 and finally got what they wanted.
In 2007, the 19-year-old Malone won the first Open singles championship in his personal career. However, in the subsequent 2007 World Table Tennis Championships in Zagreb, he failed to seize the opportunity and missed the Beijing Olympics; before the London Olympics, Ma Long's condition fluctuated and his absolute main position was replaced by Zhang Jike. In the men's team submitted the first roster (single and team competition) to the ITTF, he was also unnamed, and the two registered players were Zhang Jike and Wang Hao.
, Malone, who was unwilling to miss the Olympics again, created a miracle of 51 consecutive victories and sweeping 8 singles championships within half a year before the 2012 London Olympics. He finally got the third admission ticket, qualified for the London Olympic team, and finally stood on the highest podium with the team. After 2012, with the retirement of the "three horses" Wang Liqin, Ma Lin and Wang Hao, Ma Long gradually became the new core of the team.
Previously, Ma Long was a "professional champion" who was a champion of the men's singles champion of the World Table Tennis Championships, World Cup, Finals, Asian Games, Asian Championships, Asian Cup and National Games. The championship title surpassed the predecessors Liu Guoliang, Kong Linghui and Zhang Jike, and the heaviest Olympic gold medal. Yesterday in Rio, Malone, who was at his peak, finally became a "Super Grand Slam" player.
For more than ten years, who is the real destiny girl?
Malone looked very calm after getting the last point, and he couldn't see much excitement after winning the championship. After that, he made heart-shaped gestures with both hands. This celebration method was obviously designed long ago. Netizens speculated about what the deep meaning of this gesture had. Ma Long's response to this was "I feel satisfied. The efforts and persistence over the years are still worth it."
However, netizens did not believe Ma Long's explanation and began to dig deep into who Ma Long's "heart" was given to. Japanese table tennis women's team, Kasumi Ishikawa, 23 years old, fell in love with Ma Long as early as 7 years ago. She once said, "If I can mix doubles, I will choose Ma Long." At the same time, Xu Xiaoyuan, the "No. 1 Beauty" of the Korean Table Tennis Team, is also one of Ma Long's fans.
Malone won the gold medal, and the fan group of famous singer Jolin Tsai posted on Weibo to congratulate this little "fan". Jolin Tsai reposted this Weibo post and added a sentence "It's so touching! Congratulations to Ah Long! Be proud of you." Ma Long has always been a fan of Jolin Tsai. In May this year, he also went to see Jolin Tsai's Beijing concert and took photos with him. At that time, Ma Long posted on Weibo and @Jolin Tsai: "I have loved it for 13 years. Today is another sleepless night. I am so excited! I can no longer speak anymore and omit it here! It's worth it, come on." At the same time, he also posted photos and tickets from the concert. Jolin Tsai also interacted with Ma Long: "Thank you for your gift! I hope you have a good time."
Some netizens also revealed that Ma Long's girlfriend is a Nanjing girl named Xia Lu. The two established a romantic relationship in early 2015 and have been in a long-distance relationship. Who is Ma Long’s true destiny? Time will give the answer.
Olympic cool review
Are you so cute by this pair of "CPs"
Malone and Zhang Jike entered the finals, and no one of them won the gold medal in the outside world will be surprised. "Jike and I grew up together, and have been opponents and brothers for so many years." Ma Long's praise comes from the heart. Zhang Jike's achievements in recent years have been the best in the Chinese team. Ma Long regards his brothers as role models and is also the greatest motivation to motivate himself to continue moving forward.
10-year teammates, Ma Long and Zhang Jike's friendship in the same year reminds people of Liu Guoliang and Kong Linghui back then. Also yesterday, a group of photos of Zhang Jike and Ma Long became popular on Weibo. In the picture, the two of them lifted up their sportswear to see each other's abdominal muscles, and they looked very happy. Netizens’ comments on this are “I remembered that when I was in kindergarten, I looked at each other’s navels with my friends.”
How good is Ma Long and Zhang Jike’s personal relationship? When Zhang Jike was asked who would choose if he chose someone to go to the deserted island together, he said the word "Ma Long" without hesitation. How about it, have you been so cute? When preparing for the Olympics in China, the two were so good that they could change their shoes (each of each wearing one of the other's hole shoes) and eat cake together; when they arrived in Rio, the couple worked together to repair the shower curtains in the Olympic Village room. On the field, the two teamed up to win many men's doubles championships, including the Asian Games, and then took selfies together on the podium...
Perhaps, the "good opponents" and "good brothers" used to being used to in the sports circle are no longer enough to completely summarize Ma Long and Zhang Jike. It is most appropriate to describe them as popular "CPs" in the entertainment industry.
