"Wild card fantasy miracle, is it about to repeat itself?"
The headlines in the Los Angeles Times sparked a tsunami of attacks that instantly became the target of public criticism.
If it is ordinary media, I am afraid that the influence is not so strong; if it is Chinese media, others will naturally think that they are cheering for the hope of their own country.
But, the Los Angeles Times?
Is this serious?
Not to mention that Djokovic, Murray, and Federer are all still in the draw, the difficulty for Gao Wen to continue to break through can be imagined; just talking about the entire history, the male player who can accomplish such a feat There is only Ivanisevic, and that Wimbledon champion is the only Grand Slam trophy in Ivanisevic's career, which shows that it is a coincidence.
And Gawain?
Is the Los Angeles Times really not kidding?
It is precisely because of this that the "Los Angeles Times" has become the target of collective encirclement and suppression by major media.
Before the night game of "Djokovic VS Murray" started, the major news media on the social network could not wait to launch an attack, and everyone was analyzing. It's all bad luck, and the dark horse is likely to reveal its true form—
On the one hand, it is because the Big Four dominate the dark horse; on the other hand, because the game has reached the semi-final stage, the Big Four must have adjusted to the best condition, and the breakout of the dark horse must be more difficult.
Moreover, Djokovic and Murray's style of play should both have some advantages over Gao Wen, which further magnifies the gap in strength.
All kinds of analysis from different angles can lead to the same conclusion, that is, the initiative to win is not in Gao Wen's hands.
The overwhelming complaints and ridicules rushed towards the "Los Angeles Times" in this way—
"Is it because of the jersey that Gao Wen is wearing?"
"Have you lost your mind just watching the dark horse perform miracles?"
"Are you sure you read the draw? Do you want to confirm Gao Wen's potential opponent in the next round?"
"Could it be that this article was lying on a typewriter drunk?"
"Haha, here comes the feel-good joke of the year."
Mighty, bustling.
If it is said that Gao Wen defeated Kei Nishikori, which triggered an explosive discussion, then the bold idea of the "Los Angeles Times" directly punctured the hornet's nest.
No one believed that Gao Wen could continue to win, no one.
Reese Bennett browsed the information on the social network, and couldn't help showing a smile, "One second ago, I was lamenting Gao Wen's fifty-five consecutive victories, and everyone was talking about 'who can beat Gao Wen', and the next second The answer came out, 'Big Four', are you sure this is not the standard answer for plagiarizing others? There is nothing new at all."
It's just that Nike and Adidas are different, they have their own plans. valley
Raising his head, Bennett looked at Eric Robinson in front of him, "How about it, what do you think?"
Robinson was busy in Europe, but Gao Wen's performance became more and more exciting. All signs proved that Robinson's original judgment was correct. Nike needed Robinson to truly confirm Gao Wen's potential—
It has nothing to do with the performance of this US Open, but to confirm the possibility of Gao Wen's future.
That is to say, if Gao Wen is just like Ivanisevic, who erupted once and then fell silent, with an element of luck, they will still try to sign the contract, but the amount and treatment will naturally be adjusted; but if Gao Wen can be like Chris Like Tells, after his comeback, he won the Grand Slam championship three times before and after, and his performance was even better than before retiring, so Nike's strategy is completely different.
They needed Robinson's professional advice.
Therefore, Robinson flew back to New York overnight, and then watched the game between Gao Wen and Kei Nishikori on the spot, to see whether Gao Wen continued to grow in the short two months from the US Championship to the US Open—only Robinson could Know Gao Wen's ability and performance two months ago.
"You mean, crossing the threshold of Djokovic or Murray to advance to the final?" Robinson raised his eyebrows. "My opinion is that Gao Wen possesses such ability."
"What?" Bennett was taken aback. Obviously deep down, he didn't expect such an answer. "What I mean is, I'm not surprised by your answer, I'm just surprised by your determination."
Robinson shrugged, "Competitive sports are like this. No one can predict the result in advance unless you go to the game to see it. The only thing we can do is analyze a possibility and a trend. What I want to say is that Gao Wen has Ability has faith and determination, and if Djokovic or Murray exposes an opportunity, Gawain will take it."
Objectively speaking, from the perspective of absolute ability, Gao Wen is still somewhat far away from the Big Four, but competitive sports do not look at absolute strength, but on-the-spot performance and competitive state.
Some players have 100 points in ability, but are not in good condition. They only played 50 points in this game, so even if the opponent is just an ordinary player with 55 points in ability, as long as they play to their full ability, they can win. .
It's that simple.
Bennett thought about it seriously, but noticed something more from Robinson's words, "You are full of confidence in Gawain's future."
This time, Robinson was very sure, "Believe me, if you see the growth and transformation of a player in just two months~www.mtlnovel.com~ and his training attitude and game temperament, you will also Like me, I believe without hesitation that Gao Wen has the possibility to become the number one in the world in the future."
"...Eric, do you know what you're talking about?" Bennett was a little startled.
Why?
Because since Federer reached the top of the world ranking on February 2, 2004, for ten years so far, the "world number one" has not left the name of the Big Four; This is also the origin of the legendary title of "Big Four".
During this period, countless talented teenagers have won the praise of "potential future world No. 1", but no one has been able to break the rule of the Big Four—
What Bennett and Robinson don't know is that even in 2021, this situation still hasn't changed. Even if Murray falls behind due to injuries and the Big Four become Big Three, there are still no players who can break through the blockade.
But now, Robinson thinks that Gao Wen has the ability to break the blockade?
Bennett can't believe his ears because he knows this is their private conversation, Robinson also shoulders the heavy responsibility of how Nike treats Gawain's judging criteria, Robinson is absolutely impossible to make a joke, once a joke is made, it may be millions Dollar value difference.
Of course Robinson knew this, but he still said lightly, "Reese, I can't give you a definite answer, only time can."
Even in the face of Bennett's scare, Robinson still did not change his words.
