Lai Jiemin pointed out in an interview, "We lack to observe the matches (style of play) of this new Chinese pair (Jiang Zhenbang and Huang Dongping), and there are only two matches here (All England). So, she said, "We have to be ready and use the strengths and weaknesses of this combination based on our previous experience with them [and different partners]." ”

China's world's top two mixed doubles pairs swapped partners at the All England Championships, with Chiang Chun-pong and Huang Dongping knocking out Singapore's Hsu Yong-kai and Kim Yu-kai in straight games, as well as Chinese Taipei's Loh Ming-che and Hong En-tsei in straight games.

In the 2025 All England Open mixed doubles 1/8 finals, Jiang Zhenbang/Huang Dongping 2-0 (21-13, 21-17) Lu Mingzhe/Hong Enci advanced to the top 8.

Lai Jiemin also said, "Huang Dongping is an all-round player, she can dominate any position on the court. It's hard to score easily against her, so we have to be patient. The 29-year-old Huang Dongping, who previously won the mixed doubles gold medal at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics with Wang Yilyu, has also won the mixed doubles world No. 1 title with two different partners (Wang Yilyu and Feng Yanzhe).

Wu Xun and Lai Jiemin only spent 25 minutes in the mixed doubles second round on the 13th, and swept the Scottish pair Dunn and McPherson 21-9, 21-10 to qualify. "It was a very smooth match for us, we got off to a good start in the first game and maintained a solid performance in the second game. ”
