If you want a default value, you only need init the value with a init value.

<select [(ngModel)]="select" (ngModelChange)="onChangeGoods($event)" [compareWith]="compareFn">
    <option value="" disabled>Choose a state</option>
    <option [ngValue]="{ sortBy: 'price', sortOrder: 'asc' }">A</option>
    <option [ngValue]="{ sortBy: 'price', sortOrder: 'desc' }">B</option>
    <option [ngValue]="{ sortBy: 'rating', sortOrder: 'desc' }">C</option>
</select>

ts

export class AppComponent {
    name = 'Angular ' + VERSION.major;
    select = { sortBy: 'price', sortOrder: 'asc' };
    onChangeGoods(optionsValue: any) {}
    compareFn(c1: any, c2: any): boolean {
        return c1 && c2  ? c1.sortBy === c2.sortBy && c1.sortOrder === c2.sortOrder  : c1 === c2;
    }
}

You can see I init the prop named select with a default value. Notice the compareFn function, your value is a object, so you should write a compare function and bind it to your select.

[compareWith]="compareFn"
