  "The Chinese players have won a lot against Japan. How did you adjust after the postponement of the Olympics?"

  The Japanese media asked He Bingjiao after the women's singles quarter-finals of the Tokyo Olympics badminton at the Musashino Forest Stadium on the 30th.

In the match, He Bingjiao defeated Japanese star Okuhara Hope 2:1 and advanced to the semi-finals.

  Okuhara hopes is the leading figure in Japan's badminton women's singles. She won the bronze medal in the last Olympic Games and won another championship in the 2017 World Championships, helping the Japanese team to win another world championship gold medal after 40 years.

At the All England Open earlier this year, Okuhara hopes to reach the top again and is a hot candidate for women's singles in the Tokyo Olympics.

  However, it is this kind of big favorite that was picked down by the Chinese teenager who participated in the Olympics for the first time-you know, in the past two people played against each other, He Bingjiao was obviously at a disadvantage with only 2 wins and 8 losses.

  He Bingjiao was indeed at a disadvantage in the first game of the day, and was quickly defeated by 13:21; fortunately, the second game was adjusted, suppressing the opponent throughout the game and regaining the same score of 21:13.

In the deciding game, the two sides fought each other, and the scores rose alternately until He Bingjiao repeatedly succeeded in smashing the ball after 12 draws, and finally won 21:14, reversing and advancing to the semi-finals.

  After the match was resumed, He Bingjiao said that the first game was not handled well enough, and he summarized in time during the break, which relieved a lot of tension.

"The first game is lost, the second game must be calmed down, and the third game has to bite the score, especially after a few smashes are in place, it is very powerful." He Bingjiao also said with a smile, "I can let me later. Killing a few more balls would be even better!"

  With Okuhara's hopes out, the Japanese team, the host with high expectations before the game, has missed the gold medal in all five badminton events-the men's singles top seed Kento Momota broke out of the group stage, and the women's doubles top seed Ayaka Hirota/ Yuki Fukushima was defeated by Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan. In the mixed doubles, Wang Yilyu/Huang Dongping blocked Yudai Watanabe/Arisa Higashino out of the finals. No wonder Japanese reporters would ask He Bingjiao for "the secret of winning." .

  "Although it took five years to prepare for the Olympics, no matter whether it is four, five or six years, the usual training must be done well. I think my teammates and I have done a good job." He Bingjiao said.

  One year after the Olympic Games was postponed, He Bingjiao was transforming herself, from the former "fat jiao" to the visible "lightning bolt".

She lost 16 kilograms of weight, which made her very resistant to the saying that "physical stamina affects skills and tactics". In the day-to-day hard training and reshaping, she tasted the sweetness that she had never experienced.

  In fact, it is not only the Japanese media, but the Korean media are also concerned about the Chinese women's badminton singles.

In the pre-match prediction, South Korean media said that the 19-year-old South Korean genius girl An Xiying is expected to win a card at the Tokyo Olympics, but the premise is "better not run into Chen Yufei."

  In the other quarter-finals of the day, An Xiying still lost to Chen Yufei 0:2.

After the match, Chen Yufei also revealed Guoyu's "Secret of Winning", "We have been training systematically since the epidemic, and our training effect has also been reflected in the Olympics. This shows that our women's singles team has practiced very well."

  Two Olympic women's singles champion Zhang Ning has coached Chen Yufei and He Bingjiao.

In an exclusive interview with a reporter from China News Agency not long ago, Zhang Ning said that as Chen Yufei grew older and had more experience in participating in competitions, she became much more mature and stable than before. She is the favorite to win the women’s singles; and He Bingjiao is much thinner than before, proving her The self-demand is higher and harder than before, and the style of play is very characteristic. If you play stable, you will also play a world.

  In the last Olympic Games, China's badminton women's singles defeated Rio without a win. The outside world expects that the two flowers who participated in the Olympics for the first time can regain the long-awaited glory of women's singles.

Unfortunately, He Bingjiao and Chen Yufei will meet in the semifinals.

As for the next game, both said that they would go all out and leave no regrets.
