Later in the day, the Chinese world champions, along with other members of the delegation dispatched by the China Soong Ching Ling Foundation, visited with Japanese friends the stadium where the 1971 championships were held, as well as the Ping-pong Diplomacy Memorial Wall set up in 2017 to commemorate that episode of history.
Yasuko Sugimoto, a Japanese player who also took part in the 1971 championships, brought with her a photo taken 10 years ago of her and Liang Geliang as token of their friendship.
"I hope we can meet again when we are in our nineties," Liang, who is now in his late 60s, said enthusiastically to Sugimoto.
