The full name of the World Table Tennis Championships is the World Table Tennis Championships, which is sponsored by the International Table Tennis Federation and the highest-level world table tennis competition sponsored by the International Table Tennis Federation. Every competition is sponsored by the Table Tennis Association authorized by the ITTF, which has a wide influence.
The first world table tennis championship was held in February 1926 in London, England. After so many years of development, the current competition system was formulated at the 46th World Table Tennis Championships on 200 1. After the change, the competition system will be odd-numbered single-game and even-numbered team competition.
This year is an odd year. The World Table Tennis Championships will be held in Houston, and individual competitions will be held. This year's competition will include five events: men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles, women's doubles and mixed doubles.
China hosted the 43rd World Table Tennis Championships in Tianjin since 1995, in Shanghai in 2005 and in Suzhou in 20 15.
The World Table Tennis Championships is one of the top international events, and it is called "the three major table tennis events" together with the World Cup and the Olympic Games.
The World Table Tennis Championships is one of the three major table tennis events, and it is called the World Table Tennis Championships. The three major table tennis competitions include the Olympic Games, the Table Tennis World Cup and the World Table Tennis Championships. Athletes who win singles titles in three competitions are called grand slam champions. Then, what is the bonus of the athletes who won the World Table Tennis Championships?
In fact, the World Table Tennis Championships are similar to the Olympic Games, but belong to the international games. There is no bonus for the first and second place. In other words, ITTF won't give athletes bonuses after winning the championship, but because athletes represent the country and win glory for the country! Therefore, if athletes get good grades, the host country will give them bonuses.
Just like the Olympic Games, the Olympic Organizing Committee will not award medals to all countries, but to each country's own athletes. Athletes who win medals or even gold medals usually get hundreds of thousands of bonuses. The influence of the World Table Tennis Championships is not as good as that of the Olympic Games. The prize money is naturally less, but it will not be too little.
For example, the Japanese Table Tennis Association has prepared bonuses for its own athletes. The prize money of men's and women's singles champion is as high as 6.5438+million yen, while the prize money of men's and women's singles champion is 5 million yen, the runner-up is 2.5 million yen, and the runner-up is 6.5438+0.5 million yen. Among them, the prize of 6,543,800,000 yen for the singles champion is equivalent to about 560,000 yuan, which is also a very expensive reward.
Although our table tennis has not announced specific reward measures, it will not be low. It should be similar to the Olympic bonus. Even if there is no 200,000 yuan, there must be 10- 15000. In fact, bonuses are secondary, and honor is the most important thing! As ZhangJike said, athletes can raise the five-star red flag on the field after winning, which is a sense of honor that other professions can't bring.
And the athletes in our country are all within the system. To put it bluntly, the state pays the athletes. If an athlete wins a place in the World Table Tennis Championships, he can not only get a one-time reward, but also get a performance allowance, which always follows the athletes and accounts for a large proportion of their income.
In other words, as long as table tennis players can get a good ranking in the World Table Tennis Championships, their income will increase in the future, which cannot be calculated in detail. Moreover, not only athletes with medals, but also athletes who can make it into the top 8, 16 also get performance allowances, but not so much.
Some netizens say that Japan gives high rewards, but our country doesn't give enough. But I think for athletes, it is definitely not because of those bonuses that they compete for the championship. People win glory for their country and cannot be measured by money!
1 First of all, whether it is men's singles or women's singles, men's doubles or women's doubles, men and women are mixed. No matter what game it is. No bonus. Do you think it is incredible?
This is all about representing the country, which is a strong sense of honor. Some things are not measured by money. However, when I come back, I think the country will give me some bonuses or rewards. These honors are your contribution to the country, and you can give priority to employment in the future. For example, after some athletes retire, the local sports administrative department is responsible.
In addition, athletes' achievements will be counted as sports allowance, accompanied by athletes, and athletes will be counted in the system. The system is the most stable job. Fighting for the country is easy, and it will be recorded in various books and videos. It would be great to be a cow all your life. Of course, athletes are famous and can't just accept advertisements. But being famous is more convenient than not being famous.
Of course, it does not rule out that the management mode and reward mode will change with the development of society in the future. Some athletes, jumping out of the system, don't mix well, but stability is the most important thing.

The team's first sister, Miki Ito, is confident that she can beat China, and stresses that she is stronger now than at the Olympics.

I hope everyone can go all out and win one more medal at the World Table Tennis Championships. "
Emperor Taishō Miyazaki also announced the Japanese team's World Table Tennis Championships bonus, which is the same as the Olympic bonus.

"The singles champion is 6.5438 million yen, the runner-up is 5 million yen, the third runner-up is 3 million yen, the doubles champion is 5 million yen, the runner-up is 2.5 million yen, and the third runner-up is 6.5438+0.5 million yen."
Miki It? once said in an interview that he would beat all the China players and strive to win the singles and doubles titles in the World Table Tennis Championships. Before going out this time, Miki It? once again emphasized this goal. She said: "I have made full preparations. No matter what happens, I will be very comfortable. I really hope to win every game against China players. This is the goal of this World Table Tennis Championships. I believe that I am stronger than when I participated in the Olympic Games. "

No matter what place you win, there are no prizes, only unique trophies. The champion of the World Table Tennis Championships has the right to keep the trophy until the next year's 65438+February 3 1, after which it will be recycled.
If it can achieve great success in three consecutive championships, ITTF will make a replica equivalent to half of the original trophy and give it to the champion.
However, some countries set their own bonuses, such as Japan, where men's and women's singles champions can get 6.5438+million yen.
