"Coach Li, I was selected! I was selected by the national team!" Feng Zhu said with excitement, his eyes twinkling with light.
Feng Zhu fulfilled the dream of three generations of his family and finally joined the national team.
As a newly-selected player on the national team, Feng Zhu had to stay on Team Two. If he wanted to be a member of Team One, it would require more effort.
Within the national table tennis team, there was a trial of upgrade and downgrade, which was attended by the last several players of Team One and the first several players of Team Two. The trial adopted the round-robin fashion and it was ranked by points.
The players with the most points could stay on Team One if they were already a member of Team One. If they were on Team Two, then they could join Team One.
Players from Team Two with low points would remain on Team Two, while Team One players with low points could actually be demoted.
