Match point

Chapter 414: Sleepless Night
"...Of course Novak..."

"...Serena's performance..."

"...Ah! High! Definitely high!"

Amidst the wind, fragmented fragments of words were intertwined, and everyone was chattering about the upcoming quarter-finals today.

Crowded!

But it was precisely because of these noises that in order to be able to hear the words clearly, Gu Xiao paid more attention and looked at the man in front of him seriously.

"...He stood on the court and fought, while we stood behind him and waved the flag. No matter what storms and difficulties we face, we will accompany him to face them together! We hope to express some modest strength and let him know that he is Definitely not fighting alone."

Just a few words, but you can really feel the enthusiasm from the heart, so that Gu Xiao's heart is also beating hotly.

Follow the man's open arms towards the back and forget, and then you can see strange and lovely faces. After a rough estimate, there are only more than 100 people. It is only a small handful in the wide space of Arthur Ashe Stadium. I am afraid it is difficult to cause any stormy waves.

However, they did not fear or shrink back. On the contrary, each face was filled with happiness and passion, blooming brilliantly under the golden sun.

Someone is trying to draw a wolf head pattern on the cheek, because this is the most impactful image that Gawain has left for the fans so far, but this is obviously not an easy job, and there are people nearby to dissuade him, otherwise it would be more convenient to paint the national flag pattern Suitable.

Some people are talking about the last match between Gao Wen and Wawrinka. There were many thrilling and critical moments, and many shots that seemed to have no chance could be turned into miracles in Gao Wen's hands. Memories are always exciting.

Someone is sharing an interesting story about taking a photo with Gao Wen at the training ground yesterday. From close contact, one can know that Gao Wen is an approachable, funny and humorous character. Crowing.

One, another, and another.

Compared with the number of people, what is more important is the kindness and familiarity of like-minded people.

Because I like the freedom and joy of being connected to each other because of liking the same sport and watching the same game, sharing the most familiar language and memory with each other, and then quietly uniting together, that feeling. This is the source of the heartbeat disorder.

Gu Xiao was still a little cautious, but he couldn't help but want to share.

"I know that feeling."

"Above the US Championship, I witnessed the moment when Gao Wen won the championship, as if I followed him to complete the battle."

The eyes of the man in front of him lit up immediately, and he became excited, "You actually watched the National Championship game live?"

After getting an affirmative answer, the man immediately turned to greet him in Mandarin.

"Come here quickly, here is a fan from Gao Wen University!"

Hula la.

In an instant, all the fans swarmed over and surrounded Gu Xiao in a blink of an eye. Excited faces and pairs of excited gazes turned towards Gu Xiao with curiosity and expectation, which made Gu Xiao stiffen, and did not Know how to respond.

The man seemed to notice it, and laughed heartily.

"Sorry, please forgive everyone's excitement. We really know too little about Gao Wen. Now everyone really hopes to know more about him."

"Ah, I forgot to introduce myself, I am Wang Dalei."

The name, which is in Chinese, is very prominent in a series of English.

Gu Xiao paused, and then said in long-lost Chinese, "I am Gu Xiao."

boom!
Everyone immediately felt a sense of intimacy, and the sense of distance disappeared immediately, and chattering questions roared down towards Gu Xiao like the Milky Way descending three thousand feet.

Fans, gathered one after another, the Arthur Ashe Stadium is condensing a force from the mysterious East, and the same blood connects everyone.

Today's games at Arthur Ashe Stadium went very fast, with both the first and second games ending earlier than expected, with an upset that saw Makarova knock out Azaren in straight sets Card, the whole game took only a little over an hour, which caused a lot of exclamation.

The organizing committee has taken this possibility into consideration, and the schedule is slightly different from the first week. The start time of the second match is no earlier than [-]:[-], and the start time of the third match is no earlier than [-]:[-]. The audience flow was manipulated, so the second game was cleared after the early end, and it was idle for nearly an hour.

For fans, waiting is always suffering; but for TV broadcasts and participating players, it is a good thing, because the whole preparation work becomes much easier and simpler if the game can start on time.

Before the start of the third game at Arthur Ashe Stadium, the second game at Louis Armstrong Stadium was an upset. The women's doubles eighth seed Zheng Jie team fought hard in three sets and was eliminated by the unseeded Date Kiko. Strong, in today's "Asian Showdown", Neon will win first.

So, what about the second "Asian Showdown"?

Last night, Qiao Wangsheng went to bed early, forced himself to lie on the bed and close his eyes before nine o'clock, then set the alarm clock, and got up on time at [-]:[-], just to watch the game at three o'clock.

Turn on the central five sets, turn on the computer at the same time, open the homepage of the social network, and you can find that the keyword "Gaowen VS Kei Nishikori is about to start" is on the hot search again, and you can see thousands of fans without words Like Qiao Wangsheng, they were all waiting for the start of the game.

Although it was three o'clock in the morning, the east side of Asia on the other side of the Pacific was awake all night.

It's not just the Central Five, online live broadcast, and social networks. Netizens soon discovered that the Neon audience was just like them. They got up in the middle of the night to pay attention to the game. The attention of the Tennis Open has never been higher.

From the ratings, the number of people online, the search volume, discussion posts, etc., you can clearly feel the rising heat wave. This is destined to be a sleepless night.

Then, the live broadcast finally started.

Qiao Wangsheng rubbed his eyes that were not yet fully opened, holding the freshly brewed strong tea, he was ready to enter the "battle", and then two players entered the field on the screen, and Gao Wen took the lead. , Kei Nishikori then entered the field, and the Arthur Ashe Stadium erupted with unbelievable cheers.

The cameras were aimed at the stands, and Qiao Wangsheng could see the brightly waving five-star red flag at a glance, and it was not just a national flag, but surrounded by a high-raised flag, there was a bustling crowd of small national flags beside it, like a sparkling ocean generally.

Gu Xiao.

Qiao Wangsheng saw Gu Xiao who was shouting and waving his fists in the crowd, and he was a little slow to match the photo with the picture in front of him. The sense of reality and intimacy broke through the TV screen, and he was slightly taken aback. A smile bloomed involuntarily at the corner of his mouth.
