Chapter 1177: down to earth

In fact, Gao Wen can fully understand Graf's earnestness—

From the birth of the US Open, to the reversal of the Australian Open, to the youngest record of the "Sunshine Double Crown", this journey has been really smooth.

Although there have been some troughs and twists and turns, on the whole, it has always maintained an upward curve, continuously writing history, and continuously challenging the limits.

In a blink of an eye, from an unknown person to the third in the world, even the topic of "becoming the number one in the world" has created overwhelming noise, and life has been turned upside down while still in a dizzy state, surrounded by spotlights, bustling voices Continued to roar and bombard wildly.

Become famous overnight, become famous overnight, the subversion of life, the impact of daily life, the encirclement of popularity bubble, everything may make people lose themselves.

Look at Kyrgios, look at Zverev Jr., look at Yanowitz, all of them are no exception. To the gimmicky and cruelty of the world, and then, the mentality is out of balance.

Gao Wen, even more so.

actually-

If this was not Gao Wen's second life, he might have been dizzy long ago, unable to find his way in the dazzling Vanity Fair.

Maybe!

Therefore, Gao Wen 100% understood Graf's worries.

Entering the clay court season, this is a completely different surface, and it is a completely unfamiliar surface for Gao Wen. He has grown up as a hard-court player throughout his career, but now he needs to change his habits, awareness, understanding, etc., and even Change the way you play.

This is not easy, not only is it not easy, it can be said to be full of challenges, because it requires Gao Wen to be down-to-earth and learn from scratch.

However, does Gao Wen have such patience and courage?

Especially the media has been fanning the flames all the time:

Whether it was the hard-court grand slam in the spring season in the first half of the year, or the world rankings were pressing against the two giants, the media's bluffing and bluffing never stopped:

"In the clay court season, Gao Wen is still competitive?"

"Will Gao Wen be able to accomplish such a feat to be number one in the world?"

"Entering the clay court season, where will Gao Wen's challenge and impact on the Big Four go?"

"From the analysis of playing style and style, it is clear that Gao Wen is more suitable for clay."

"For the first time in his career on clay, will Gao Wen continue his strong performance?"

"How high will this 19-year-old player reach in making history?"

"Perhaps, the favorite to win the French Open should add another alternate?"

and so on and so forth.

Little by little, the expectations were heated up, and the pressure on Gao Wen was continuously increased. All the praises, all the attention, all the expectations were poured down layer by layer.

"Praise and kill" is always the most handy method for the news media and will never fail. It only needs to send all the praises in a simple and rude manner.

This is like a stepfather/stepmother, "How to destroy the original child and maintain a perfect and kind image", "Praise and kill" is the perfect answer, they just need to keep encouraging the original child to "be yourself" and do what you want without restraint Do anything, that's enough—

Those teenagers, they will destroy themselves, they don't even need to do it themselves.

The most brilliant and most cunning aspect of the "boosting" strategy lies in:

No one can refuse praise and praise.

Even veterans who have been on the battlefield for many years, surrounded by these praises and attention day and night, will have an illusion that they are standing on top of the world, and then the pressure will be overwhelming without knowing it, even if they are physically After hundreds of battles, the pressure is the same when stepping on the Grand Slam final stage again.

Not to mention these fledgling teenagers?

It doesn't take much, a little imbalance can break the good first quarter, a little setback and things will be different.

So, surrounded by the hustle and bustle of the media, after reaching the top of the "Sunshine Double Crown", can Gao Wen really calm down?

Thinking about it seriously, less than 24 hours ago, Gao Wen had just won the Miami Masters championship. When he turned around, he needed to stand on the clay court, like a child who just learned tennis, and was required to start from scratch, from foot to foot Observe and start training from the basics of returning the ball and so on.

It's really not easy.

Gao Wen could fully understand Graf's prudence, care, worry and concern.

However, in Gao Wen's view, this is not a difficult task.

Because he was a human being in two lifetimes, and because he was a reporter, Gao Wen had long been mentally prepared for these situations; moreover, there was a system on his side.

The existence of the system reminds Gao Wen all the time that he must keep his feet on the ground. There are mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people. He is far from reaching his peak—

The most surprising thing is that from Indian Wells to Miami, the growth potential has not stopped growing as expected.

Originally, from Melbourne to Doha, and then to Indian Wells, the entire pace of growth was gradually slowing down, getting slower and slower, so Gao Wen thought that the bottleneck was coming, and finally the growth potential value would stay at 99.9%. No more growth, waiting for the clay court season to usher in a breakthrough.

However, it didn't—

In Indian Wells, in the first game against Rublev, the growth potential value successfully exceeded 99.9%, which was full again.

It seems that during the entire Australian Open period, although the growth rate of the growth potential value was slow, it continued to increase, and finally broke through the full value.

This time, Gao Wen directly superimposed on the physical attributes, which also means that the three basic attributes have all entered the 90 mark, ready for the clay court competition:

Because the physical test of the clay court season will be unprecedented, rising to a whole new level.

In Miami, after the final against Djokovic, it was unexpectedly discovered that the mental attributes had naturally increased a bit, from 93 to 94.

From the Australian Open final to the Miami final, in the two finals, Gao Wen's mental toughness and adaptability have indeed been improved to a higher level.

Currently, the attributes are:

Physical attributes, 90.

technical attributes, 90.

Spiritual properties, 94.

hidden attributes, 78.

So, what does this mean?

In Gao Wen's view, it is not complicated, and even very intuitive.

Originally, Gao Wen thought that he had reached a bottleneck~www.mtlnovel.com~ just like the end of all NCAA competitions last year, reaching his highest level at this stage.

However, this is not the case. There is still a long way to go before the bottleneck. Even if it is a hard court, there is still room for improvement, which is not enough to be complacent.

The system, undoubtedly calm and objective, gave Gao Wen a clear reminder—

Even if he won consecutive championships at the Australian Open, Indian Wells and Miami, he still has room for improvement, and his potential has not been tapped to the fullest.

It is conceivable that the next clay court season and grass court season will inevitably be more severe challenges.

This is more clear and intuitive than a thousand and ten thousand praises from the news media.

No need for words, Gao Wen naturally became humble, and faced new challenges in a down-to-earth manner.
