Match Point: Chapter 689 Can\'t stop the car
Chapter 690
"...How does it feel to reach the final of the Masters for the first time in your career?"
"If you add the challenge, this is your sixth final this season, and you have only lost one game so far. So what do you expect for tomorrow's final?"
"This season's finals win rate reached 80%, ranking first among all ATP players. Do you have any special secrets?"
"Is it a pity to have made it to the final in Paris, only to miss out on the ticket to London?"
"Do you think the final in New York feels different from the final in Paris? If so, what is the difference?"
"...Valencia and Paris entered the finals back to back and showed a good competitive state. According to the calculation of points, if you also participated in the previous week's game in Valencia and won the championship, then now you can enter the year-end finals. For Do you regret the decision to rest and adjust for a week?"
One two... ten twenty...
Questions, one after another, couldn't stop at all. At the post-match press conference, Gao Wen, the winner, undoubtedly became the absolute focus of attention again:
All kinds of tidbits on and off the court have generated countless possibilities due to the scuffle situation throughout the 2014 season. Just throwing a question at will can detonate the attention.
As I said before, a victory can change the whole situation; and when this victory comes from Gao Wen, there will be more topics.
Then, the most amazing scene appeared:
After answering a series of questions, Gao Wen was thirsty, so he opened the mineral water and took a sip of water. As a result, all the reporters in the audience stared at Gao Wen eagerly.
Those scorching gazes were like parents watching a one-year-old baby drinking water from a bottle, eyes full of concern and worry.
puff.
Gawain almost spit out a sip of water.
"Although I know that I have a mission, in fact, you don't have to cooperate like this."
As he said that, Gao Wen raised the mineral water bottle in his hand, and deliberately exposed the trademark, and inadvertently made another advertisement for the mineral water—
Seeing this scene, the owner of Evian Mineral Water showed a satisfied smile again.
The reporters at the scene couldn't help laughing, some expressed helplessness, some chuckled, and some exchanged glances with their colleagues and sighed.
Then, Gao Wen added another sentence.
"When I am drinking water, you can continue to ask questions. Drinking water will not affect my hearing, just like you speak French. If I don't understand it, I don't understand it."
It was a joke, but there was no response from the reporters, because Gao Wen's voice just fell, and there was a clatter, and the arms raised high in the audience were like birch forests.
"Can you tell us in detail the reason behind choosing to rest and adjust for a week? Even if you know that you still have the qualifications to compete for the year-end finals, why do you still make such an adjustment?"
"After returning from rest and adjustments, what goals have you set for the Valencia and Paris games? Do you expect to be able to reach the final for two consecutive weeks?"
"Did you make any special adjustments against your good friend in this game?"
"In the game, you should celebrate the score that should be screamed. You still insist on yourself, and you don't seem to worry about Milos. Aren't you worried about affecting the friendship between the two parties?"
"Now, players born after 1990 are taking the lead. Do you think the era of grabbing power has really come?"
Focus, one after another, and there are many questions that Gao Wen did not expect at all, and some people even asked Gao Wen how he thinks about the overall chaos in the tennis world this year—
Not only the ATP, but the WTA has also entered the stage of full-scale melee. The dominance of Serena Williams and Sharapova has loosened, and the opportunities of other players have increased significantly.
So, does this mean that the wave of regime change has arrived?
Regarding this, Gao Wen said dumbfoundedly:
Are you sure you're asking the right people? I'm just a young guy who's been playing professional tennis for less than six months, are you sure that's the right thing to do?
Looking at Gao Wen's expression of "the baby doesn't understand anything", the reporters' intention to use Gao Wen to provoke conflicts between the two generations of players failed.
But this still didn't affect the enthusiasm of the reporters. Questions were still pouring out, so that Gao Wen was worried about whether Raonic's post-match press conference would be empty.
"You are friends off the court, but you are opponents on the court. Will the relationship between winning and losing affect your friendship?"
"What's your vision for the next game?"
"Djokovic and Kei Nishikori, if you could choose, which opponent would you prefer to face?"
"May I ask, what is the difference between the situation in Paris and New York? What special preparations will you make for the next game?"
"Later, are you going to watch the second semi-final?"
"Yesterday, you and Milos watched the match between Novak and Andy. Are you scouting potential opponents in the final?"
"Which player do you think you will face in the final with a better chance of winning?"
"If you can win the championship in Paris, will you feel the regret and loss of missing London more and more?"
The next, the next, and the next... It's endless, and the problem seems to have no end in sight.
buzz buzz.
The entire press conference hall seemed to be filled with 100,000 bees, and each bee was working hard without being lazy, and the continuous sound continued to roll over the eardrums. Over time, tinnitus followed like a shadow, and the whole world Everything is spinning.
Even though Gao Wen had seen many big scenes so far this year, he was still frightened by the turbulent upsurge in Paris.
The entire press conference hall was crowded to the brim? This is not unusual, just a basic operation.
What's really amazing is that the questioning session lasted a full thirty-five minutes and it still didn't end.
As usual, a 20-minute press conference can already be described as "long"~www.mtlnovel.com~ The general post-match press conference is about ten minutes, and occasionally lasts to fifteen minutes. The questions that can be raised in a game are very limited, and in a game, there are games that are updated every day, and there is a question time after each game. Where does so much focus come from?
However, "time of day" refers to the chaos and turmoil throughout 2014; "location" refers to the fact that Paris is the last race before heading to London;
All the factors collided together to achieve such a grand occasion—
For tennis journalists, the Paris Masters is basically equivalent to celebrating the New Year ahead of schedule.
Although it is said that London two weeks later will be the final show of the year, but purely in terms of focus, topics, gimmicks, etc., it is very difficult for London to compare with Paris. The only focus should be Djokovic and Federer's world number one. One battle.
It is precisely because of this that the reporters showed unimaginable enthusiasm in Paris, and the frenzy of the post-match press conference could hardly stop the car.
"The firecrackers say goodbye to the old year, and the guests and friends are full of smiles."
This way of expression sounds absurd, but it fits perfectly when you think about it carefully.
