This is the moment when a chopper says to herself: "My coach put my career on a wrong track and now I am paying the price for that".
Even if you took the long pips benefits (heavy backspin, dead balls, wobble effect, etc) while you were competing against amateurs/beginners/intermediate/advanced players when you have reached this pro level where the people know how to play against long pips and they have the proper technique and physical training you are in trouble since you depend on the spin received from them.
In this example, more than playing against a pro player, the German player is playing against a pro player with short pips on the backhand side so she is doomed because she is looking for a ball with heavy topspin but guess what? That ball will never come since the ball from those short pips does not have a lot of topspin instead it is going more straight forward - you can check the disappointment on the German player face since she realizes that she cannot do anything against that spin.
Since there is not enough topspin, the ball will just float over the table because the long pips do not receive enough topspin to revert it into backspin and make the ball go down.
The smashes you were talking about are prepared by Ito before they were executed; it is not a smash against a heavy backspin ball as it happens when a long pips player is playing against a normal inverted rubber.
It is something like this: ball received from Ying Han, return the ball to Ying Han`s backhand (long pips) with short pips so you can generate less topspin on the ball, push back from Ying Han with less backspin since there was not a lot of topspin on the previous ball, the ball will not go down on the table because there is not enough topspin to reverse it so the ball will jump too high, smash performed by Ito on a high ball with less backspin - more like a dead ball.
Same behavior here:

Check out this video for a game between long pips and normal inverted rubber.
After all it is still inverted rubber and this is why you are doomed against short pips.
