Match point

Before winning and losing, keep objective, there is no need to shirk responsibility or shift the focus, and face the facts calmly, this is Gao Wen's consistent game philosophy.

As far as today's duel is concerned, Troicki was indeed the side that played better in the first set, and he deserved the victory, but it doesn't mean that Gao Wen will surrender.

"...For me, I need to insist on myself, continue to put pressure on Victor through the bottom line, and get the game back to the pattern I am familiar with."

"I think the opening stage of the second set is very important."

"In Victor's serve game, I put pressure on the net with the ball and a forehand back to win, which proved that my choice at the tactical level was correct."

"Although I couldn't break serve in that game, God, Victor's next three serves were completely unsolvable, and I felt the true meaning of the grass again..."

Haha!

Watching Gao Wen spread his hands and complain helplessly on his face, his cadenced words brought the reporters back to the game vividly, and it seemed that Gao Wen had two consecutive break points in his hand again, but Troyki used three consecutive high-quality serve points. The moment to turn the situation around and win the situation——

Laughter, constantly.

"But this game is still very important. It gave me inspiration and confidence. I continued to insist on myself and finally got the reward at the end of the second set."

"Personally, this game is very valuable. In the first three rounds, I faced three players with different styles, and felt the texture and style of the grass in an all-round way. Although I still need some time, I started slowly. Enjoy the grass game."

"Pete still has some complaints about my tactical choice on the grass, but I think we are on the right path and it will be very helpful for me in the follow-up games."

After the complaint was over, Sampras was hit by an arrow in the knee. Before the reporter had time to react, Gao Wen paused and looked at the reporter who asked the question just now with confusion, drawing the attention of the audience.

"Wait, what's the other question?"

——Laughed out loud!
Not because of the content of Gao Wen's words, but because of the rhythm and tone of the entire conversation, the reporters present could feel Gao Wen's ease and humor, and the atmosphere became cheerful.

The reporter who asked the question hastily raised his right hand high and swung it left and right like a windshield wiper, "It's all right, I've got the answer I wanted."

"Huh..." Gao Wen breathed out lightly, "I hope it's not the kind of self-interpretation."

Haha, hahaha.

The laughter at the scene couldn't stop, even if Gao Wen was complaining about the reporter—telling stories by looking at pictures, distorting, distorting, and slandering, isn't this a common way for reporters to fabricate news?
Although the reporters themselves were complained about, they still had to admit that Gao Wen's complaints were light and humorous, so they didn't feel offended at all. Instead, they admired Gao Wen's wit, and burst into laughter. This is a kind of charm .

Immediately afterwards, the expected question appeared——

"...The first round is over. Zverev Jr., Coric and you three young players have entered the second round hand in hand. This year's Wimbledon is also expected to be high. It is generally believed that you may write a new history. Join hands Made it to the third round; but ended up going back to the familiar routine."

"You, still only you, as a representative of the new generation born after 1995, advanced to the third round, and advanced to the fourth round today, what do you think about this?"

In the youth storm sweeping the entire tennis world, the younger generation of male and female players has attracted much attention. For competitive sports, the youth storm is the guarantee for a long-term exciting sport, so media reporters pay attention to these young players all the time. Human germination and growth.

Once upon a time, Wimbledon was the most suitable stage for youth storms to release energy among the four grand slams, but time has changed, and now it has become a nightmare for young people.

Gao Wen raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

"I think we should all have some patience."

"I was lucky. When I participated in the big event for the first time in New York last year, there was almost no spotlight. Although people discussed the rise of Bouchard and Halep, the media attention was not surging. No expectation, no pressure. , I was able to focus on my game."

"However, in just one year, many things have changed. The entire environment, public opinion, and atmosphere have completely changed the feeling."

"In my opinion, we should have some patience."

"Roger didn't become the king of the ball overnight, and Rafa didn't excel at all surfaces in one season, including Novak, Andy, etc. It's so sad that young players didn't join hands to advance to the third place in Wimbledon. Instead of writing history in rounds, it is better to praise the performance of young people who advanced to the second round for the first time in a Grand Slam."

Only Gao Wen knew that he was not a real 19-year-old boy.

For young people, growth requires a process. The quantitative changes before the qualitative changes are long but necessary.

Journalists, however, took a different view.

Reporter, "We understand that young people need time. We have been patient and sincere enough to keep sending praises, but in the end it is only their arrogance and arrogance that grow."

Gao Wen, "Then, whose fault is this?"

reporter:……

Gao Wen, "I think this is not the fault of young people. Of course, it cannot simply be said to be the fault of the media. This is an environmental problem in the entire Internet age. The pace is getting faster and faster, information is getting more and more fragmented, praise and attacks Intertwined, true and false are difficult to distinguish, people are getting more and more anxious and more radical."

"Under such an environment, the growth of young people is full of more and more uncertain factors. Instead of condemning the arrogance of young people, it is better for us adults to think about what is wrong with society and how we should modify it. Create a good living environment for the younger and younger generations."

"Perhaps, we are standing at a fork in the road of an era, facing numerous challenges, and everyone shoulders their own weight."

"so."

"I just ask everyone to have some patience, don't accuse them of living up to expectations because of one loss, and don't think that the era has turned over because of one victory and one championship."

The audience was silent.

The reporters stared at Gao Wen, their bright and calm eyes bravely looked at the audience, and their eyes met, and they welcomed all the scrutiny with dignity.

Who would have thought that the original purpose of an ordinary topic should be to provoke competition between Gao Wen and the younger generation. The two players, Zverev Jr. and Coric, had met and played against Gao Wen, and they also had An unpleasant experience, the reporters thought that Gao Wen would make trouble.

However, Gao Wen did not, not only did not, but also raised the whole issue to a higher level, bringing deeper thinking.

Shock, like ripples, gently enveloping——

Suddenly, someone had a flash of inspiration. How could they have forgotten that Gao Wen is a top student at UCLA, and he has always had excellent grades during school. If he hadn't turned into professional tennis and continued his studies, Gao Wen should have graduated with excellent grades, right? .

So, what's next, what should we do next?
