Match Point: Chapter 1784 Revisit
In fact, for Chinese reporters, this year's US Open is another test.
Originally, Huaxia Media was ready to prepare a large team according to their respective plans, and went to New York for the first on-site report.
Not only CCTV, but also five local TV stations, as for print media and online media, there are countless, breaking the highest scale in history.
However, Gao Wen's sudden injury not only disrupted Gao Wen's plan, but also disrupted the plans of the media.
An "uncertain future" immediately made various media hesitate. The main reason is that once Gao Wen's injury cannot be recovered in time, and he is finally forced to miss the defending tour, the value of their reporting on the spot in New York will no longer be Existence, pay and harvest are not proportional.
So, what should they do?
After hesitation and hesitation, CCTV finally showed courage—
According to the original plan of the original team and the original plan, visas and hotels have been booked, and they are not going to back down.
After all, this is the first time that Gao Wen has set foot on the Grand Slam stage as the defending champion.
After all, last year they did not expect a surprise, this year there is no reason to get cold feet.
After all, after going through the tests of Roland Garros and Wimbledon, their confidence and expectation in Gao Wen has gradually become a kind of belief.
After all, this is where the dream begins.
CCTV, after all, is still CCTV, this magnanimity and arrogance are extraordinary.
Although two local TV stations eventually canceled the trip, it is unbelievable to say that there are more than 300 people from China's official and unofficial interview teams. This is the statistics of the two TV stations' cancellation of the trip. than the Olympics.
The difference is that the Olympics has more than two dozen different sports and hundreds of athletes; the US Open, however, has only one and barely double-digit players, including qualifiers.
The scale is obvious.
There is no doubt that this is the first time in history.
At this time, one could feel from all angles that Gao Wen's influence in the Chinese mainland and even in the whole of Asia had indeed climbed to a new peak.
In contrast, it is the neon media team.
Kei Nishikori, like Gao Wen, withdrew from the competition in Cincinnati due to injuries. In addition, Kei Nishikori's overall performance this season was far below expectations. Points need to be guarded, and he is also facing a fork in the road.
Neon also dispatched more than 50 reporters. In addition to paying attention to Kei Nishikori, their attention was also focused on Gao Wen.
Also as Asian players, after experiencing the glory of Flushing last year, Gao Wen and Kei Nishikori are also looking forward to repeating the miracle again this year.
More importantly, the Asian media are more than ever looking forward to Gao Wen being the number one in the world and filling the gap in professional tennis. In the doubles field, Asian players have already accomplished such feats, but in the singles field, both men and women Players have never been able to fill this void.
But now, if the suspense of ATP's year-end world No. 1 is to continue, then Gao Wen must perform well in New York, which is a necessary condition.
So, when Gao Wen announced his arrival in New York, other Asian reporters, including Nihong, applauded one after another. One or two couldn't hold back their excitement and joy. Even compared with the fans and netizens, the noise in the media center was overwhelming. Favorably.
Really amazing!
Perhaps, this is another charm of competitive sports, breaking through the boundaries of race, culture, country and nation, and truly focusing on human challenges.
Yujia couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
Coming head-on, Yujia saw two familiar faces with smiles in full bloom.
"Ms. Zhan, Mr. Hu."
At this time, Zhan Jun was also in good spirits on happy occasions, and gave Yujia a hug, "We also saw the news just now, it's good to be here, it's good to be here."
A full year ago, Zhan Jun and Hu Litao witnessed a miracle here, and a year passed in a blink of an eye, and CCTV was also eager to bring some good luck, so it sent two old partners to revisit the old place again, preparing to witness another journey and another scene Fight and look forward to a happy ending.
However, the mood and mentality have been completely different.
Hu Litao barely kept calm, but the movement of swallowing saliva still revealed the turbulent mood, and the adrenaline was crazily secreted and burned.
"The next step is to look at the draw."
"Last year's draw was terrible, and I hope to get a good one this year."
Although Zhan Jun didn't speak, he understood what Hu Litao meant.
No one knew about Gao Wen's recovery. After all, the timeline was too tight, and the strained abdominal muscles still needed time to recuperate.
Therefore, Gao Wen needs time to slowly regain his feel and state, which also means that the draw will play an important role—
If Gao Wen encountered the seed killer in the first week of the competition and released all his energy recklessly at the beginning, the situation might be very difficult.
But if Gao Wen does not encounter too strong opponents in the early stage and gives Gao Wen enough time to adjust and improve, then the second week of the competition will be completely different.
Entering the second year of his career, compared with the past four Grand Slams in the past year, Gao Wen needs a little bit of luck in signing more than ever.
Zhan Jun can feel the confusion in Hu Litao's short words, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com In fact, they were all in the same mood. He let out a long breath and said half-jokingly, "I have already experienced the **** draw in Melbourne Park. I think any draw should be eclipsed."
The atmosphere became relaxed again.
They should trust Gao Wen, not because Gao Wen can always write miracles, but because Gao Wen will go all out at any time and under any circumstances.
The lottery live broadcast is about to begin—
There were rustlings and chattering, and it was obvious that the atmosphere in the entire press conference hall and media center had settled down but began to become slightly tense.
Countless sightlines, bustling, all gathered on the TV screen.
Then!
Gao Wen in a suit and leather shoes and Serena Williams in a bright red dress came on stage carrying championship trophies respectively.
Ah, how did they forget that, except for Wimbledon, the draws for the three Grand Slams were all done by the defending champion himself.
In other words, their luck will determine their pick.
The U.S. Open is the youngest and most trendy of the four Grand Slams. They also tried to draw lots for the men’s singles by the defending champion of the women’s singles, and draw lots for the women’s singles by the defending champion of the men’s singles, but later realized that such a gimmick was not enough Stimulation, so I went back to the mode of "controlling my own destiny".
At this moment, watching the scene of Gao Wen appearing with the championship trophy, the sense of reality after a year has passed quickly from the soles of the feet to the top of the head like an electric current.
Now, fate is in Gao Wen's own hands, let's see what draw he draws for himself.
So, is this a good thing, or a bad thing?
