Even though Wimbledon hadn't even started yet, Gawain was already in love with Wimbledon—
There is a sense of ritual.
From clothing preparation to court etiquette, from event preparation to competition progress, the procedures hidden in the details can deeply feel the weight of history, and every move carries the thickness of the foundation.
Although the rules and framework restrict hands and feet, it is annoying in many cases, but at the same time, it also conveys a sense of ritual, which reminds Gawain of his childhood. Going to the tennis court is a An entertainment, a ritual, a desirable existence.
Just like on the first day of the first grade of elementary school, I neatly prepared my books, pencil case, homework book, school bag and school uniform, checked, sorted, and confirmed over and over again. Brings a sense of sanctity, full of happiness and longing.
Later, when I grew up slowly, the sense of mystery gradually disappeared, the sense of sacredness no longer existed, and the sense of ritual became a kind of shackle.
However, occasionally reminiscing about the anticipation and excitement on the eve of the first day of school, and being so excited that I couldn't sleep, it is a memory that can never be reproduced.
Now, the same is true for Wimbledon.
Perhaps, after participating in Wimbledon for the second and third time, Gao Wen will also start to get tired of the framework of these ceremonies, but that is all for the future. Happiness, eager anticipation swelled and overflowed in the chest.
This sense of pure anticipation was not even felt when I participated in the US Open for the first time last year.
Today is Friday, before Wimbledon officially starts, there are still three full days of countdown, and the official Wimbledon event will conduct a regional draw.
Although the draw ceremony of the Australian Open is also broadcast live on TV and the Internet around the world, they are still not as good as Wimbledon in terms of tradition and ceremony.
Even if it is just a draw ceremony, Wimbledon is held as a formal dinner, and all those who go to the draw must wear formal attire—
In the past, the requirements were stricter. Men’s suits and women’s evening dresses were standard, and they were not allowed to enter the venue without a tie; now it is much looser, allowing T-shirts or jeans to enter the venue, but the jacket must have a collar, and shorts or slippers cannot be worn. If you are too exaggerated, you can enter the field.
In addition, the draw ceremony itself also has a formal process, which not only shows respect for the defending champion who is in charge of the draw, but also blows the horn of the new year's event, and everything shows a sense of ceremony.
The prelude to a feast was slowly unfolding right in front of your eyes.
It is precisely because of this that although Gao Wen is not going to the lottery ceremony today, he still feels ready to go when he goes to the practice field.
Through the door panel, you can feel the hot air outside—
Click, click, click, click, click, click... click... click... click...
From weak to strong, and then from strong to weak.
As soon as you hear it, you know that those paparazzi are always ready. No matter who goes out, they press the shutter reflexively. After realizing that they are not the target person, the shutter sound will gradually weaken, but they still continue to press a few more times professionally. The fast and slow sound can feel the change of atmosphere.
And then.
Click... click click... click click click click click click...
— buzz buzz.
The door of the villa was pushed open again, and it was Gawain who appeared behind Pelt.
The shutter sound hesitated for a moment, and then an astonishing burst of energy erupted, and the mighty silver light curtain poured down like a waterfall. In an instant, the whole world was immersed in a bright halo, and even the lines of buildings and trees were blurred. It has also disappeared, all hidden in the halo.
Time, temporarily stopped; space, temporarily frozen.
Thousands of eyes were all rushing towards Gao Wen, and the sound of shutters and flashing lights intertwined, playing a symphony, and the whole world broke into a roar.
Agassi and Pelt passed by in a hurry, and the paparazzi and reporters in front of them took it for granted that Gawain should be the same, so they rushed forward one by one, and the bustling questions were all intertwined, making it impossible to hear Clearly, there is only a buzzing sound.
As a result, it was not.
Gao Wen stopped in his tracks, smiling, and looked at the crowd generously, accepting the treatment of taking pictures, and showing extra patience.
Slowly, everyone at the scene came to their senses, and after realizing that Gao Wen was not planning to leave, it seemed that there was no need to continue to frantically press the shutter.
So, what is the situation now?
The imaginary scene should be Gao Wen running away with his head in his arms, and the reporters are chasing after him. The game of chasing each other will chase around Wimbledon for a while, and finally he is interrupted and intercepted by the vicious security guards at the entrance of the training ground. Gao Wen hid in the training ground in embarrassment and enjoyed a moment of peace.
Then, the paparazzi and reporters continued to wait at the gate of the training ground, waiting for the next wave of chase games.
but now?
Even the British paparazzi, who have experienced many battles, have a brief freeze: This reaction is wrong.
In the next second, you can see Gao Wen showing a smile and raising his right hand—
heh.
The reporters standing at the forefront took a small half step back, but unfortunately they were unable to retreat due to the crowd, but they could still see the wind blowing the wheat waves back, and there were some stampedes in the bustling crowd. Someone shouted "my shoes", and the sound of panic was a bit funny.
Such a strong reaction also made Gao Wen startled, he was slightly stunned, and then the smile on the corner of his mouth rose greatly, and became even brighter.
"Good morning."
Gao Wen said.
It turned out to be a greeting, but after the reporters realized Gao Wen's real purpose, one or two of them blushed a little, and the panicked situation just now became more and more embarrassing.
But why?
Why did Gao Wen stop to greet the reporters? Is it going to hold a press conference at the entrance of the villa? What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?
After looking at each other briefly, a reporter finally couldn't bear it anymore and raised his voice to ask, "Gao Wen, is there really nothing between you and Jennifer Lawrence?"
Opportunities are opportunities, and the reporters don't care about Gao Wen's calculations. Now that Gao Wen has stopped, they will never miss it.
"No." He was straightforward and upright.
"Do you think your early exit from the Queen's Club Cup has something to do with the scandal?"
"No."
"Do you think Jennifer's presence at the game affected you?"
"No~www.mtlnovel.com~ Are you sure you don't?"
"Sure."
"Really?"
"real."
Although the questions were one after another, aggressive, and constantly testing Gao Wen's bottom line, the smile on the corner of Gao Wen's mouth was always slightly raised, and the answers that were like a spring breeze dispelled all the attacks lightly. harmonious.
There seems to be something wrong with this picture, right?
But all of a sudden, the reporters couldn't think carefully, one or two wanted to seize the opportunity firmly, and all the attacks rushed towards Gao Wen.
Don't miss this opportunity, never miss it again, this should be the only thought in the minds of the reporters.
