Chapter 347: The One Who Is Hiding His Strength


    Trantor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio


    Dai Li heard that Anshan Wang was a powerful athlete, without direct feelings. Now, he was finally aware of the strength of Anshan Wang, one of top ping-pong yers in the world.


    "I can’t believe that Anshan Wang didn’t show his real ability!" Looking at Yaozu Li across the table, full of confidence in his heart, Dai Li knew that he was stronger than Yaozu Li, although only the first set was finished.


    "Not bad for an athlete," Dai Li was a little excited.


    Beating his rival and winning a contest is really a pleasant thing, which is why Dai Li was feeling good. On the contrary, frequent failure can be annoying.


    Therefore, Yaozu Li couldn’t be in a good mood, because no man would be happy after losing contests. What’s worse is having a failure to a coach instead of a professional athlete, which would be a terrible experience.


    "This man is as good as any world-ss professional athlete. In Singapore, a person with his ability can y in the Olympic games! He is just a coach, so how can he be so good at the game?! Is this the real strength of China, a Ping-pong power?"


    Yaozu Li was terribly upset. He was initially proud of his ping-pong skills, and knew he could strive to be a world-ss athlete after taking efforts. However, he found the harsh reality that he couldn’t even beat a coach, which began to raise his thoughts of giving up his professional career.


    People now looked at Dai Li in a strange way. At first, no one knew Yaozu Li’s real identity. Later, the audience felt sorry for Dai Li, after they knew the truth. But, in the first set, Yaozu Li couldn’t fight back at all, which was a big surprise for everyone. Although Yunan Xiao once imagined that Dai Li would win, she never thought it would be so easy.


    "I know that ping-pong is our national sport, and that our national team is excellent, but I never thought that a coach could beat up a Singapore professional athlete!"


    "When we see ping-pong contests on TV, we actually cannot feel the huge gap between Chinese athletes and foreign athletes, by which I was also shocked."


    "Mr. Li is really good. No wonder he dared topete with Yaozu Li. Of course he is excellent."


    Most of the audience supported Dai Li, because most of them came from Dingtian Club, so the sense of collective honorbined them into an integrated cheering squad, as they were not willing to see the failure of Dai Li. The only one who couldn’t ept the reality was Lefeng Gu.


    "Why? Why did he lose? He is a professional athlete in Singapore. Why?"


    Lefeng Gu invited Yaozu Li, a professional athlete in Singapore, and he intended to keep it a secret, trying to humiliate Dai Li after his failure.


    Yet, in the end, it was Lefeng Gu who became the one who was humiliated.


    How can it be? My n was perfect! The problem is that Yaozu Li is too weak to beat a coach. A good idea is wasted.


    At the moment, furious Lefeng Gu stared at Yaozu Li. In fact, it was difficult for him to realize his own mistakes. In his view, all responsibilities should be shouldered on Yaozu Li.


    In fact, Yaozu Li wasn’t so bad, even though he was beaten by Anshan Wang, who didn’t show his true strength. The reason for such a huge gap in the first set was mainly due to his mental state.


    Before this time, Yaozu Li thought it would be very easy for him to win this contest, because Dai Li was just a coach. Maybe he was good at ying, but he could surely never beat a professional athlete. His taking the enemy lightly was the main reason for his crushing defeat.


    There are a great deal of examples of just this same folly in numerous sports contests. When the strong confront the weak, it is easy for the strong to take his rival lightly. Therefore, a weaker man in this kind of mental state would not only lose the game, but also lose his confidence.


    When Yaozu Li walked into the stadium, he was in such a mental state. Basic requirements for professional athletes, such as careful observation, calm analysis, and reasonable solutions, were forgotten. Obviously, it wasn’t so difficult to beat an athlete without possessing these abilities.


    Yunan Xiao was very d, and she never thought of this great surprise that Dai Li would bring her.


    "I didn’t know he was such a great ping-pong yer!" Yunan Xiao looked at Dai Li, the man struggling for the game, in an admirable way. Suddenly, she was attracted by his unique characteristics, and she couldn’t help looking at him.


    In the studios of the hotel, three bosses got the official score reported to them from the contest scene.


    In the next two sets, it was the same as the first set. The contest hadn’t finished yet though, but the end was already determined. Losing his calmness, Jianshe Gu couldn’t disguise his anger anymore, a fact which the other two easily noticed.


    An ignoramus son made Jianshe Gu feel very helpless. But what he could do was limited, because of his spoiling his son. In most cases, he just ignored his son’s ridiculous behaviors, such as his buying sports car and a yacht, gambling, and pursuing starlets, all of which Jianshe Gu could bear, thanks to his huge amounts of wealth. But this time, he crossed the line.


    The IPO of Dingtian football club had been designed to raise at least $10 billion, with billions of dors of interest behind each point of equity allocation. Jianshe Gu didn’t agree with the equity allocation n proposed by Dingtian, because he wanted to gain more benefits.


    But that Lefeng Gu should bet on equity allocation, all for his resentment, and then lose the bet, which was not only an economical loss, but also affected strategic decision-making of Jinsui Group, was unthinkable! From the perspective of a negative view, he dared to bet on equity allocation solution of Dingtian today, so it’s hard to say whether he would recklessly bet on the whole Jinsui Group tomorrow!


    "Such a loser!" he almost exploded with anger.


    "Mr. Gu, take it easy, as it costs time to educate our kids," said Dingtian Xiao, a face filled with a smile, an air ofcency.


    "God bless me, if I can survive these horrible things done by my stupid son. If that loser could just behave himself like your daughter, I could retire now and have a rest!" said Jianshe Gu.


    "Each family has its own problems," he sighed. "My girl has a strong character. However, a girl must marry ad when she grows up. Being a housewife is good enough. I introduced several goodds to her, each good-looking, good families, and good careers. But she rejected all of them. I am so worried about that!"


    "I heard that the coach Dai Li is the boyfriend of your daughter..." he stopped unconsciously, because he realized something.


    Isn’t it so strange that Yunan Xiao chose the sports coach, among so many excellent youngds? Why would he be willing to be a coach, when he possessed such ability? It can’t make sense at all. Isn’t it a trick they yed, just to fool my stupid son?
