The story of ZhangJike's struggle for his ideal.

ZhangJike's father, Zhang Chuanming, who was unyielding since childhood, is a senior professional table tennis coach in the island city. Interestingly, Zhang Chuanming didn't want ZhangJike to follow in his father's footsteps at first. He had a soft spot for football. He originally wanted to train his son to be a football player. The reason why he named his son Jike was because "White Wizard" Jike was his favorite star. However, in 1993, China's men's soccer team lost to Yemeni team in the World Cup qualifier, and once again failed to "rush out of Asia and go to the world", which made Zhang Chuanming extremely disappointed. Therefore, he changed the original intention of letting ZhangJike join the pitch. Because he inherited his father's sports genes, gifted ZhangJike couldn't put it down the first time he picked up a table tennis bat. At that time, Zhang Chuanming set up a table tennis table at home and taught ZhangJike to play whenever he had time. In 1995, when ZhangJike, 7 years old, came to Qingdao No.2 Stadium to receive professional training under the enlightenment coach Shen Penghua, although his backhand skill was still immature, his forehand skill was already in good shape. In Shen Penghua's view, ZhangJike's achievements today are the inevitable result of sweat. Whenever he sets foot on the training ground, ZhangJike will have no distractions and practice the ball meticulously, unlike some children who take the opportunity to be lazy when the coach is absent. Once, Shen Penghua accidentally pointed out that ZhangJike has the weakness of "the left and right swing speed is not fast enough". The speaker had no intention, but the listener had a heart. That afternoon, ZhangJike specially found a small player to serve himself and practiced the left and right swing speed. After practice, he found Shen Penghua: "Coach, do you think I am fast now?" This detail impressed Shen Penghua. Never admit defeat is also the key for ZhangJike to reach the top of the world. Different from other small players and big players, ZhangJike never thinks losing to big players is a normal phenomenon, but will fully learn from the failure and make up the gap in time. It is with the strength of this newborn calf that he is not afraid of tigers that ZhangJike turned the stumbling blocks on his growth path into stepping stones and gradually stood out among his peers. In 23, ZhangJike won the men's singles championship in the World Youth Championship and was promoted to the national first team. The prodigal son never changes his money. Since ancient times, heroes have become teenagers. When he was only 15 years old, he joined the national first team and lived with idols such as Kong Linghui. At that time, ZhangJike was so high-spirited that he even became arrogant. However, heroes have suffered a lot since ancient times. In 24, ZhangJike paid a heavy price for his youth, because he violated the team discipline and was returned to the Shandong team. Although deeply hit, ZhangJike didn't give up on himself, but quickly pulled himself together. Because he knows that as long as he turns over a new leaf, he will be able to knock on the door of the national team again with excellent results. During that time, in addition to practicing three times a day, ZhangJike lived in seclusion. Even when he went out, he often wore a baseball cap, not wanting others to recognize him. What worries Yin Xiao, the head coach, is that ZhangJike was taciturn at that time, as if he would be mad at any time. One day, in order to help his disciples completely release their depressed feelings, Yin Xiao suddenly drove ZhangJike to the back of the training hall, removed dozens of porcelain plates from the car and demanded ZhangJike in an commanding tone: "Give me all these plates!" Seeing that ZhangJike, who was confused, hesitated, Yin Xiao took the opportunity to guide the situation: "You must completely break with your former self. If you are determined, you will break them all at once!" After ZhangJike smashed the plates one by one, Yin Xiao didn't finish the calculation. He took him to the back hill to smash the plates for several days until ZhangJike got out of the shadow completely.
