"but…"
Amidst the well-intentioned laughter of the audience, Gao Wen changed the subject slightly and cut to the really important part.
"If you're trying to give this something more special historical significance, I don't think it's necessary."
"It is true that we are living through the most glorious and special era in men's professional tennis, and four top players have pushed the game to new heights."
"However, before Rafa's rise, people thought that Roger might dominate the professional tennis world for the next decade without finding any opponents."
"Similarly, before the rise of Novak and Andy, it was thought that Roger and Rafa would have a long battle over the greatest player of all time."
"What I mean is that they are great because they are champions, but also because of their hard work and sweat on the road to becoming champions. They face countless challenges and the impact of countless competitions, and still maintain a strong fighting spirit and enterprising will , always progressing and always fighting.”
"So, maybe the world ranking pattern will be changed, but the heart of a champion will never stop beating."
Sincerely, sincerely.
Frankly, frankly.
The eloquent words avoided the focus of the topic, but rose to a higher level, responding to the reporter's focus topic.
"When I was interviewed before, I said more than once that I believe so, I can do it, and other people can do it too."
"I don't think I'm special, I'm just an ordinary guy with dreams and going all out, that's all."
"I believe I am not the first, because before that, Novak and Andy have done it, people think that Roger and Rafa will firmly hold the top two positions in the world, but Novak and Andy Breaking through the shackles, thus forming the era of the Big Four, opening a new chapter in men's tennis."
"Similarly, I also believe that I am not the last one. There are many good players in the professional tour now, older than me, younger than me, they are all working hard in their positions, they still have dreams, they are still Going all out, we are all the same.”
"Maybe, they don't have that much ambition, and they don't expect to win fourteen Grand Slam titles. There is no need for so many, one time is enough, at least they believe that they can enter a Grand Slam final and win a Grand Slam. A Grand Slam title, a dream come true moment, that's all."
"We still dream, we still dare to dream big, that's the best part of competitive sports, isn't it?"
"We all have a champion's heart beating in our chest."
Applause, Thunder!
No one can be an exception.
No matter what the question was, at this moment, all the reporters in the audience could deeply feel the enthusiasm revealed in Gao Wen's understatement.
So sincere and so pure.
But that's still not all.
Then, pull it back again.
"I just said that this is a very complex and very simple topic."
"It's simple because, yes, being No. 1 in the world is a dream, and so is the Sunshine Double. There is no doubt that this should be the dream of countless players."

"I, like other players, give my all on the court and sprint towards the championship, not only because it is our job, but also because it is a dream."
Between the lines, I made a little teasing, "professional player" is actually a job, and they all go all out in their jobs.
The smile on the corner of his mouth rose slightly.
"It's complicated because, obviously, this matter is not up to me alone. I need to challenge my opponent, and at the same time, I need to face the impact of my opponent."
"And, even if the dream comes true, I believe it's just the beginning, not the end — at least, I'll try to pray it's not the end."
Is it the end of "after reaching the top of the world and turning around, announcing his retirement and ending his career at the peak"?
Or is it the kind of ending that "after reaching the top of the world, it disappears like a shooting star in the blink of an eye"?
Or is it the end of "severe injuries and illnesses after reaching the top of the world and sinking into a sea of bitterness"?
But no matter what kind of "end" it is, Gao Wen stated his point of view in such a light and ironic way:
Whether it is the Sunshine Double Crown or the number one in the world, this should be a new starting point, a new prelude, and the second chapter of his career.
Definitely not the end.
The subtext is that there is no need to make a fuss, the career behind is still long, and there are still many challenges waiting.
Wisdom, cleverness.
Confident, low-key.
You can deeply feel the confidence exuded by Gao Wen from the inside out between the lines. His goal is obviously not just to be number one in the world.
However, looking at the problem from the perspective of a higher structure can make people feel Gao Wen's humility and low-key, keeping his feet on the ground and staying awake, and he is not lost at all because of the praises that flock to him and the historical records that are close at hand. There are higher plans for careers.
It has to be said that Gao Wen's handling of such a difficult and hot focus issue could not have been more perfect.
The eloquent words easily dispelled all the sharpness of the attack and gave a positive response.
Laughter and applause, cheers and whistles intertwined in the press conference hall, and the reporters expressed their respect and appreciation to Gao Wen in their own ways.
Perhaps, journalists and public figures are natural public enemies. Under the wave of entertainment to death, journalists always try their best to find faults and try to create explosive points.
But apart from tit-for-tat, they are also partners who help and support each other. The relationship between enemies and friends is not as simple as black and white~www.mtlnovel.com~ just like this time.
Gao Wen deftly resolved the "provocation" from the reporter. Although the reporter didn't get what he wanted, he still produced classic quotations and brought focus in different ways.
A kind of sincere admiration quietly rose, and the cheers of the audience were the best proof.
However-
Not all reporters are so smart. Listening to Gao Wen's taijiquan method going around, his head was directly dizzy. Not only did he not get an answer, but there were more and more question marks, filling his brain and buzzing. There was a loud noise, and it seemed that it might explode on the spot at any time, and then the brains would be all over the floor.

Whoosh!
Immediately, someone raised their hand again, breaking the calm of the scene, ignoring the other journalists who were savoring Gao Wen's words, and asking another question.
"Gao Wen! So... are you confident in winning the Sunshine Double?"
Well, Gao Wen's long speech just now is nothing but nothing, everything returns to zero, and he returns to the starting point——
Of course, looking at it from another angle, it can also be considered that this reporter was not entangled in Gao Wen's words, he was sober in the world, and maintained his principles.
The topic, after going around in circles, returned to the original point.
At the scene, some reporters couldn't hold back, and the corners of their mouths raised, but they couldn't tell whether they were complaining about their colleagues or sympathizing with Gao Wen.
Perhaps, a bit of both?
All in one, everyone's attention was focused on Gao Wen again. Anyway, it should be okay to eat melons and watch a show, right?
Gao Wen: ...
What is this feeling of "a scholar meets a soldier"?
