Billiards: A Showbiz Debut, Sweeping the Snooker World

Reborn in 2012, the snooker world was thriving. The 1975 generation of greats were in their prime, the Five Tigers of the 1980s were making their mark, and Selby was beginning the first year of his reign over the sport.

But before that reign could even begin, Wang Hao, a young player from the East, burst onto the scene!

In his first year as a pro, Wang Hao won Snooker's Best Newcomer award and climbed the rankings. In his second year, he won six titles, completed the Triple Crown, and secured the world No. 1 spot. In his third year, no one in the world could match him!

The Fire Extinguisher, the man even more accurate than the most accurate man in the world, the Wizard's lifelong nemesis, the ultimate supervillain...

Fans gave Wang Hao countless nicknames, each one earned through his performance on the table.

The Wizard: "I don't understand. How can anyone be even more consistent than me?"

The Golden Left Hand: "I admit Wang Hao is just as accurate as I am. The young players today are formidable!"

The Rocket: "I can say for certain that Wang Hao is a monster. I'm glad I discovered him. The sport needs young players like him."

Many years later, a reporter from the East interviewed Wang Hao and asked, "How have you managed to dominate the sport for so many years?"
