University: I throw my left hand farther than my right hand. I am an undergraduate majoring in international finance at the School of Management of Shanghai Jiaotong University in 2009.

1990, Xu Xin was born in a cadre family in Xuzhou, Jiangsu. Like Yao Yan, Xu Xin was picked up by kindergarten at the age of five. He played table tennis in the characteristic table tennis school for two months, and played while learning in primary school.

Xin Xu is a left-handed general now. Speaking of his left-handed play, there are some funny stories-Xu Xin was left-handed when he was a child. He ate with a spoon in his left hand and was pulled over by his grandmother. He also writes with his right hand. After he started playing table tennis, the teacher tested him and found that his left hand was farther than his right hand, and he was used to playing with his left foot, so he was asked to hold the racket in his left hand.

From grade one to grade four, Xu Xin's academic performance is not bad. Only Sunday afternoon is the rest time every week, and most of my spare time is spent playing table tennis, which has always been the first in Jiangsu Province.

Xu Xin, a senior, entered the self-funded table tennis class of Nanjing Institute of Physical Education, which means that Xu Xin, who is 10, will leave his home in Xuzhou. Luo Yonghong, Xu's mother, recalled: "Every week, his father and I would visit him, and it took four and a half hours by train. Nanjing is very cold in winter, and Xu Xin can bear hardships by washing dishes herself. "

In the self-funded class, Xu Xin has always been the top two, and entered the Jiangsu Provincial Sports School in less than a year. From September 2000 to February 2002, I studied in the provincial sports school. 200 1, Tang zhixian served as the head coach of the second team in Jiangsu province. This experienced coach once coached Olympic champion Chen Qi from 1994 to 1999. Director Tang still remembers seeing Xu Xin for the first time: "Xu Xin is playing ball. He put it short twice in a row, and both of them were beautiful! " I did very well in the stadium without air conditioning.

200165438+February, Tang zhixian came to work in Shanghai. Only the parents of two children agreed to let their children come to Shanghai with Tang Zhixian, namely Xu Xin and Hu Bingtao. Xu's mother said: "The family agreed that Xu Xin would come to Shanghai, mainly because the platform in Shanghai is good for children. Xu Xin's father also specially went to Cao Yanhua Table Tennis School. "

On February 24th, 2002, Xu Xin came to Shanghai, and his registered permanent residence was transferred to Shanghai. His parents visited him in Shanghai once every two weeks at first, and then once every three weeks. It takes seven hours for a one-way train trip.

In Shanghai, Xu Xin suffered a lot. Tang Zhixian recalled: "From 2002 to 2004, there was no air conditioning in the training room, and the indoor temperature was over 40 degrees ... even if you suffered hardships, you could exercise. Xu Xin did very well on the court without air conditioning. Every world champion needs long-term training. Deng Yaping and Wang are both champions of overtime practice. At that time, although Xu Xin was young, he played very firmly. "

Talking about Xu Xin's talent, Director Tang gushed: "The most important thing to be a coach is to select people. It is easy to have a gifted child. Xu Xin has a good hand feel and a good brain, and has his own ideas. Unlike most other children, he doesn't practice fixed-point hitting on the assembly line. His training is very personal. In 2002, the South Division of the National Amateur Sports School stipulated to use positive glue, and Xu Xin used reverse glue straight board, so he had to practice positive glue half a month before the game. He played very well in the game and he was very smart. "

The teacher of Cao Yanhua Table Tennis School described Xu Xin like this: "He is lazy in practicing, he can walk half a step and never takes a step." Instructor Tang defended his lover: "He is a little lazy sometimes, which is often the case with players who feel good." If the judgment is very accurate, there is no need to run unnecessarily. Sometimes he would say,' I did it, but I didn't run'. "

In fact, Xu Xin has long been in the eyes of the national team. In 2003, the national team went to the East for training. A coach of the national team said, "This boy should be able to enter the national team in two years." During the national team training in 2004, another national team coach told Tang Zhixian: "Xu Xin is a world champion and must grow up healthily." It's always awkward to play ball with him.

In February, 2004, Xu Xin was selected for the second national team, and in June, she was promoted to the first team, U 17, and won the national men's singles championship. Xu Xin's coach in the national team is Qin Zhijian from his hometown of Jiangsu. Interestingly, Qin Zhijian is left-handed and straight, and Xu Xin is also left-handed and straight, just a pair of mentoring. Call home in Xuzhou once a week. Xu Xin often tells his parents about Qin Zhijian on the phone: "Qin's guidance is very kind to me and cares about me. That's how we both play."

Although Qin Zhijian said in front of Xu Xin that "this kid has to keep an eye on him all the time" and thought he was a little lazy, he spoke highly of Xu Xin in private: "His left hand is straight and his sides are reversed, which is technically very distinctive. Many players always feel uncomfortable playing with him, so he is still very promising, technically combining the advantages of Wang Hao and Marin. "

Tang said: "When I was a child, Xu Xin's state was not so prominent, and his muscles were very loose. I felt very loose standing there. In fact, his thoughts are not loose, and his temperament in this respect is indeed a bit like Waldner. He often gives his opponent the feeling that it is difficult to beat him because he is inconspicuous. Table tennis is a contest of skill, tactics, psychology, will and physical strength. Xu Xin has a lot of brains to play with and the technology is very practical. "

In the first stage of direct communication, Xu Xin once defeated Shanghai Yige Wang. In this World Table Tennis Championships, he will mix doubles with Guo Yan and become the youngest player in the team. In this regard, Xu Xin said: "I know it is difficult to be the next king now, but this is my goal. I am confident that I will become the main force of the China team in the future. I am currently in the top two! " Xin Xu was in a good mood when he went to Zagreb. Xu's mother said he was "neither nervous nor complacent".

For Xu Xin, the first experience of the World Table Tennis Championships is just an opportunity to exercise. Tang said: "I am also surprised that Xu Xin can participate in international competitions at such a young age. He has a chance to become a world champion in the future. This World Table Tennis Championships is mainly for physical exercise. He participated in fair competition through selection, and the national team also attached great importance to his training. " What worries me most is the "back road"

Today, coach Tang Zhixian leads a table tennis team in Shangnansancun Primary School in Pudong, Shanghai, with half the children from Shanghai and half from other places. Tang Zhixian said: "Parents in Shanghai pay more attention to study, so it is difficult to insist that their children play table tennis. Children in Shanghai practice table tennis, and their parents' determination is not as great as that in other places. "

Both students brought by Tang have made great achievements. In addition to 17-year-old Xu Xin who participated in the World Table Tennis Championships, another student, Hu Bingtao, has also entered the national team. Before joining the national team, Xu Xin and Hu Bingtao were both small stars in Cao Yanhua Table Tennis School.

In fact, only 20% of Cao Yanhua table tennis school's native Shanghai players, which actually reflects the lack of successors of table tennis in Shanghai. Although the coach got various preferential treatments (such as doubling the bonus for training local players in Shanghai and so on). ), there are still not many local seedlings in Shanghai. Every time Cao Ping-pong School meets good young people, it will try to keep them in Shanghai by signing contracts.

In fact, when Xu Xin 12 came to Shanghai, his parents were also worried that he could not fight. After all, "many children won the national children's championship, but they didn't fight in the end." At that time, their parents thought of a good way out for Xu Xin: "After coming to Shanghai, we also let nature take its course. The coaches all say that Xu Xin is the material to play ball. The Woods in Shanghai are small, so he always wants to go there, even if he can't, there will be ten.
