    乒乓外交

        冬尽春至,万物复苏,某人我也静极思动,参加了OSU的乒乓球俱乐部,锻炼为主、娱乐为辅。俱乐部规模不大,总计成员50余名,其中有不少“三分钟热度”早已神龙见首不知其踪,常驻的包括教练也就二十来人。然而,令我万万想不到的是,在这区区二十余人的业余俱乐部,居然也是藏龙卧虎,奇人异事不少。
      
        昨天晚上,便有一桩。
     
        昨天是星期天,晚上是每周例行的“教学时间”,俱乐部的特聘教练会给学员一个半小时的现场指导。俱乐部主席事先通知,这一次的教练之一,是一位叫做John Tannehill的老先生。这位老先生,我先前也略有耳闻,据说是美国乒乓球国家队前队员,虽已年高,却风采不减,令人很是景仰,只是某人我加入俱乐部也晚,还不曾得见。
     
        晚上9点,老先生来到,枯瘦,个儿不高,一头白发微卷“撑”在头上,脸上沟壑纵横,眼睛却是炯炯有神,令我想起《笑傲》里深藏不露的莫大先生。教练来了,我以为就要开练,老先生却示意暂停,招呼大家围拢过去,然后掏出一本大相册:“我十天前去了趟中国,去了北京和上海,你们看,这是长城,这是......”老先生劲头不小,我漫不经心的想着,随意的浏览着相册,看到一堆红光满面的人兴高采烈的欢聚一堂,背后有红色大横幅,司空见惯的国内外事活动的场面......等等!我瞄到横幅上的字,最大的几个是“中美乒乓外交35周年”!!!哎呀呀,说起“乒乓外交”,可是我们新中国外交史上的一件大事,小子虽然无知,却也知道当年中美间二十余年的外交冰河,便是由这样一个小小的事件破冰,最终全面解冻的。见我惊讶,一位师弟告诉我,当年到北京上海打友谊赛的美国乒乓球国家队当中,便有Tannehill老先生一员。看着老先生指着照片跟我们介绍:“你们看,这是庄则栋,这是张燮林......”,我不禁感慨,不经意间,居然在这里见到了一段珍贵历史的亲历者和见证人。
     
       教学结束,回到家中,我忍不住用Google搜了搜相关内容。提到“中美乒乓外交35周年”活动和老先生的在http://sports.people.com.cn/GB/22155/22162/49245/4261097.htmlhttp://sports.people.com.cn/GB/22155/22162/4251937.html,文中的约翰·塔(泰)尼赫尔便是我们俱乐部的老先生了,而http://sports.sina.com.cn/o/2005-11-10/22451872950.shtml则给出了”乒乓外交”的来龙去脉。
