Match Point: Chapter 431 Sincerity 10 feet

Harnett knew that at this stage, everyone was standing still, and no one would easily show their hole cards. Presumably Tobias would not rush to make a choice. Anyway, Gao Wen had already entered the top four, so it would be okay to wait and see. If Gao Wen really If you can..., then...

They need patience, but also courage.

Correct market assessment and positioning can help them seize the upper hand in this battle for Gao Wen, and they cannot act too hastily.

But Harnett also knew that it was very stupid for them to just sit there and wait for the news. It was impossible to do nothing, and more importantly, what did they need to do?

really.

Less than five minutes after Gao Wen won the match point, Adidas immediately held a small meeting with senior and mid-level leaders. They needed to sort out information and organize strategies. Perhaps Gao Wen was the key to regaining their competitiveness in the entire tennis market. —

It's not just the Chinese market.

Now Harnett finally understands why Tobias did not directly sign with Nike, but took the initiative to approach them and provide them with a chance.

Adidas missed once, but it is absolutely not allowed to miss the second time.

After deliberation, the senior leaders then asked Harnett to talk to Tobias on the spot, trying to see Tobias' attitude and tone.

When the call was connected, Gao Wen's post-match press conference was in progress. One of them was at the scene, and the other watched the live broadcast on the TV screen.

"... What are your thoughts on the upcoming semi-finals, where you might face Djokovic or Murray?"

"Sorry, I'm not sure I should be discussing this right now, obviously my brain hasn't left this game today, I'm on strike, I'm not sure what nonsense I'm going to say, and wake up tomorrow morning and see the headlines Question marks all over the head: Did I say that?”

Watching Gao Wen's vivid and humorous speech, the sound of laughter from all the reporters came from the audience, and the press conference was like a talk show.

The grand occasion of the No. 1 press conference hall can be seen through the TV screen. At this time, the entire space is crowded, not only the seats are all filled, but also the reporters standing happily on both sides can be seen, and the figures in the screen are already crowded. Every corner of the field of vision seems to overflow at any time.

Such a grand occasion, even in 2009 when del Potro defeated Nadal and Federer in consecutive upsets to win the championship, it was not so exaggerated.

However, facing such a turbulent crowd, Gao Wen remained calm and unhurried, showing a different style from the competition.

To be honest, even the post-match press conferences of Federer or Serena Williams were not so lively. What is certain is that Gao Wen has indeed shown a star demeanor, and his angular, sunny and youthful personal image has already added too many points up.

Then Harnett heard Tobias's relaxed voice on the other end of the phone, "David, I'm working."

"I know, but I believe that Gao Wen can handle the press conference. It would be difficult for all those reporters to break through his blockade, so you can take a break." Harnett joked lightly, still maintaining own calmness—

But I have to say that the mental positions of the two people are completely different.

Tobias chuckled, "David, you didn't make a special call just to praise Gao Wen, did you?"

"Why not?" Harnett said naturally, "I just called to congratulate Gao Wen."

"Oh, thank you." Tobias obviously didn't believe it.

Harnett said very seriously, "John, to be honest, I hope Gao Wen can win this game. After all, if Kei Nishikori wins, it has nothing to do with us. He is obviously tied to Uniqlo for life, but Gao Wen Wen is different, he still has endless possibilities."

This is true, absolutely true.

Tobias pursed the corners of his lips lightly, laughter rolled in his chest, and then nodded in agreement, he believed that Harnett was telling the truth, "Thank you, I also believe that Gawain has endless possibilities."

"John, can I go to the training ground to watch Gao Wen's training tomorrow? You know, I also hope to have a close contact with this miracle-creating teenager." Harnett released a friendly signal calmly.

In fact, they all know the real purpose behind these calls and actions, but the important thing is not to hide the purpose, but the way of execution.

Adidas believes that they need to show sincerity, and they can't act too hastily, they must approach slowly step by step.

How could Tobias refuse, "Of course there is no problem. I will send Gao Wen's training time and venue location later."

"How do you feel now?" Harnett still probed a little bit. He and Tobias still have a good friendship. "Honestly, John, did you really expect that?"

"Of course not." Tobias replied very simply, "I did see some characteristics and potential in Gao Wen, but you and I both know that there are too many uncertainties in competitive sports. Seeing the superstar of tomorrow, he must be talking nonsense."

In fact, Tobias told Harnett similar words last time, but Harnett didn't believe it at the time because he knew that Tobias' words were correct at this moment.

"What did you see?" Harnett finally listened, though it was too late.

Tobias showed a smile ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ belief. "

"David, I see belief. You can see it from his game, from his conversation, from his handling of things, etc., and this is the most special part of his game temperament."

Harnett knew, it was metaphysics—

The so-called talents and characteristics of a player, sometimes they succeed, are the keys to success; Then for others it does nothing.

It is precisely because there are too many uncertain factors in competitive sports that it is difficult to say clearly in a few words whether the talent can be realized and what height it can reach.

But Harnett couldn't help but think of the last point of today's game between Gao Wen and Kei Nishikori. Perhaps, faith is a real temperament.

"As for this grand slam, everything was achieved by Gao Wen himself, and it has nothing to do with me." Tobias remained sober and did not pretend to be Bole, "David, you should take a look at Gao Wen's training. , you will know that many things are indeed accidental, but there is often an inevitability hidden behind the accidental."

Harnett agrees, "I can't wait to get to the training ground tomorrow."

The two exchanged a few more simple greetings, and Harnett accepted it as soon as he saw it, without saying anything more, "Congratulations to Gao Wen again, today's game is really exciting."

When I hung up the phone, Gawain was talking on the TV screen, but Harnett didn't speak, and joined the ranks of the entire conference room watching the screen.
