Seeing that Liu Lili didn't reply much, Shen Yixian didn't care and continued to say to her with a smile:
"I saw that in the second half of the game, you seemed to have changed the way you shot the shot, right?"
Speaking of this, Liu Lili suddenly opened her eyes wide, as if she had discovered some great secret.
Seeing Liu Lili's reaction, Shen Yixian understood clearly and did not ask any more questions. He just smiled and patted Liu Lili on the shoulder and said:
"Okay, okay, don't worry, I'm just asking casually. Prepare well for the next game, don't let me down."
After that, Shen Yixian trotted away again.
When Zhao Shiyan first saw Shen Yixian running to say hello to Liu Lili, he stopped thinking about hugging Lili to celebrate, and instead ran to talk to Ling Zhi first.
After Shen Yixian left, Zhao Shiyan walked up to Liu Lili. He wanted to celebrate a little with her, but seeing that Lili's face looked wrong, he asked worriedly:
"Lili, what's wrong? Did Sister Shen say anything to you?"
Lili still shook her head gently and did not reply.
Although Zhao Shiyan was a little worried, Lili was not good at talking after all, so he didn't ask further. If he had anything to say, it would be better to wait until the game was over.
After the two teams took a brief rest, the finals soon began.
Zhao Shiyan looked at Sister Shen opposite and smiled at them. For a moment, he seemed to have forgotten that Shen Yixian was their opponent.
However, as Shen Yixian put away the smile on his face and replaced it with a serious look, Zhao Shiyan came to his senses and quickly got himself into competition mode.
However, I don’t know why, in this final of 21 games with 11 wins, Liu Lili was unable to enter the state.
It's not that she played poorly, it's just that compared to her performance in the semi-finals, her state in this final dropped a lot.
Zhao Shiyan on the side was slightly anxious, but the game was going very fast and the two of them were not allowed to have too many verbal exchanges, so Zhao Shiyan only occasionally asked Lili if she was okay, and after receiving a reply from her shaking her head, he stopped talking. Ask more.
Ordinary viewers may not necessarily know Shen Yixian's identity, but Lingzhi knows that facing Shen Yixian, the former women's nine-ball national champion, it will be difficult to win without exceeding his level of performance.
Although I don’t know why Liu Lili suddenly broke out in the semi-finals and then stalled, Ling Zhi will not criticize the two girls too much because he knows very well that it is normal for the players to be in different states every game.
This is especially true in snooker matches, and there are many examples in live broadcasts in previous years.
There are players who beat high-ranked players in the first game, but will no longer play in the next game.
It's not uncommon for players to score a perfect score of 147 in one game and then lose several games in a row.
So during the break between games, Ling Zhi also took the opportunity to whisper to Zhao Shiyan, comfort her and tell her not to be too anxious.
After Zhao Shiyan calmed down and stabilized his mentality, he helped his side win a few games, but it was still difficult to restore the decline.
In the end, the two lost the final 6:11.
Looking at the scene of Shen Yixian celebrating with his male teammates, Zhao Shiyan shook his head regretfully.
However, Lili standing aside seemed to be even more depressed than him. Zhao Shiyan couldn't bear it and was about to go over to comfort his good sister when he saw Shen Yixian walking through the crowd and talking to them with a smile:
"You guys played well, but it's a pity today. It's still early, can I buy you a cup of coffee?"
After saying that, Shen Yixian looked at Ling Zhi and Li Mengyao, turned around and said:
"Of course, your friends can come too. I have something important to tell you."
…
Shan Hai Cafe.
After everyone sat down here, they waited for Shen Yixian's arrival.
Since Shen Yixian won the championship, she still had a lot of things to deal with later on, so she asked everyone to go to a nearby coffee shop to wait for her for a while. She would be there soon.
Liu Lili was still the same, and Shi Yan would always ignore her when talking to her. He would simply shake his head, and it wasn't clear whether he didn't know how to answer or didn't want to answer.
Seeing that Zhao Shiyan couldn't talk to Lili, he started chatting enthusiastically with Mengyao next to him. The two of them were not as depressed as Lili. After all, being able to reach the finals and win the runner-up place was already a big achievement for this trip. Expected.
Ling Zhi was leaning on his head alone, thinking about something:
"What are Shen Yixian going to say when he comes over this time? Is it possible to simply comfort the two girls? No, if you want to comfort, can't you finish everything in the ball room?"
"Having said that, Shen Yixian's participation in the competition itself seems a bit strange. Although nominally all citizens can participate, but if she, a former women's nine-ball national champion, comes to participate, doesn't it mean that she will push other people to the ground and rub them? "
Ling Zhi frowned, feeling like he had no clue.
He silently took a sip of coffee. The heat of the coffee made him swallow it quickly with a "squeak" sound, and he felt a little uncomfortable with the bitter taste.
At this moment, Shen Yixian walked into the coffee shop and caught his eye.
I saw the women's champion sitting generously opposite Zhao Shiyan, smiling and saying:
"You guys have been waiting for a long time! Wow, is this the coffee you ordered for me? Then I'm welcome."
After that, Shen Yixian poured a large gulp of coffee into his mouth before Ling Zhi and Zhao Shiyan could speak.
"hiss!……"
Shen Yixian hurriedly put the coffee on the table, fanned his mouth with both hands, and kept coughing on the ground next to him, attracting the attention of the surrounding guests.
Zhao Shiyan patted Shen Yixian on the back and asked worriedly:
"Um, Sister Shen, are you okay? Oh, you drank too fast just now. You should drink the coffee in small sips."
Shen Yixian gradually recovered, she straightened up, held Zhao Shiyan's hand, and said with a smile:
"Haha, you're right. I talked on the phone for a long time in the ball room, and I felt like I was dying of thirst! I just came in and saw an extra cup of coffee on your table. I drank it without thinking, haha …”
Seeing Shen Yixian's appearance, Li Mengyao next to Ling Zhi smiled and left her seat, and thoughtfully refilled Shen Yixian's cup of coffee.
"Thank you, girl, you are..."
"Hello, my name is Li Mengyao, please give me some advice."
"Yeah, yeah, hello, hello."
As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up the cup of coffee that Li Mengyao had just picked up for her and took a cautious sip. She found that the refill Mengyao had given her was warm coffee, so she was overjoyed and poured all the coffee into her mouth again. The one on the opposite side Mengyao couldn't help but chuckle at Shen Yixian's childish behavior, stood up again, and helped Shen Yixian get a cup of coffee.
Shen Yixian turned his head, glanced at Li Mengyao's back sheepishly, then straightened his expression, and said to Zhao Shiyan and Liu Lili:
"I'm sorry to make you laugh. I actually have two purposes for coming here this time."
"The first purpose is to apologize to you."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Zhao Shiyan was taken aback. She quickly waved her hands and said:
"Well, no, no, no, are you apologizing for defeating us in the final? In fact, it's not necessary. Victory and defeat are common things in military affairs. Winning and losing are normal. We..."
"Haha, it's not what you think, Shi Yan."
Shen Yixian quickly interrupted Zhao Shiyan's speech, put a hand on Zhao Shiyan's shoulder, and said with a familiar look on his face:
"Actually, before the game, I said some words to Lili that I shouldn't have said. I could tell that she was affected by these words. This kind of behavior that disturbs the opponent's mentality is actually a taboo in the game. I am I apologize to you for this matter."
Hearing this, Liu Lili broke the silence and said without any emotion:
"It's just my immaturity. I can't blame others."
Shen Yixian looked at her as if she was seeing herself back then. She gradually put away her playful look and began to explain seriously:
"Actually, I can see that your left-hand shot should be good at using the speed of the rod to control force, right, but you always force yourself to use the length of the rod to control force. I don't know why you do this."
"But speaking of which, I see the shadow of a person in the way you hit the golf club. I would like to take the liberty of asking, do you usually have a coach?"
"Yes, Lili's coach is coach Xu Qing."
Shen Yixian looked like he suddenly realized:
"Oh! No wonder, it turned out to be Coach Xu. During the previous training in Pingcheng, she also suggested that I use the length of the pull rod to control the force, saying that this can enhance the stability of the rod release and improve the accuracy of the position."
"I listened to her at that time. After changing the way I shot the club, I was really on the verge of death. I couldn't even play ball anymore. In the end, I cried, made a fuss, and hanged myself. Only then did Director Xu allow me to continue to control the ball with club speed. .”
"Oh, what a pity. If I had listened to Xu's guidance back then, maybe I could have won the world championship. I really regret it..."
Shen Yixian looked so heartbroken that the four people on the side didn't know what to say to comfort her.
At this moment, Shen Yixian came back to his senses and continued:
"I am not saying this for anything else, I just want to tell Lili that the best way to release the club is not just the length of the drawbar. Moreover, I rarely see left-handed players who have control over the length of the drawbar, so you should insist on comparing it yourself. good."
"And didn't you do a good job in the semifinals? There's no need to force yourself to change your shot."
Ling Zhi agrees with this point. If Shen Yixian made a special trip to remind Lili about this matter, then he really has to thank her. Because this sentence may be worth thousands of meaningless trainings for Lili.
"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you. In order to express my apology, I discussed it with my teammates."
"We have unanimously decided to give the two of you the participation spot in next year's Pengcheng Nine-Ball Professional Tour."
