Match point

Chapter 440
In professional sports, the most taboo thing is pretending to understand, and the relationship between parents and children, parents and coaches, parents and agents is also full of crises.

Many parents firmly believe that they are the most professional and considerate. They tend to intervene in the work of coaches or agents and interfere with their children’s judgment and decision. player's future.

In 2017, Wu Yibing, a Chinese teenager, was born. He won the singles and doubles doubles in the youth group of the US Open. The first Grand Slam junior champion, and then became the world's No. [-] junior with the championship.

The news of Wu Yibing's victory was successfully published on CCTV News, becoming the second tennis player after Li Na to be reported by CCTV News in prime time.

There is no doubt that this is a rising star of tomorrow, who is very hopeful to change the sluggish situation of Chinese men's tennis.

In 2018, Wu Yibing officially entered the professional tennis world, and then signed with IMG Brokerage Company in June, and immediately signed a contract with the famous coach Sven-Groeneveld (Sven-Groeneveld) through Eisenbud's matchmaking——

This coach once directed Federer in his youth, and later directed Sharapova, Ivanovic, Wozniacki and so on.

Under the direction of Groeneveld, Wu Yibing has achieved some achievements, such as the runner-up in the Asian Games; but the overall performance has also fluctuated significantly, and the impact of changing technical movements can be seen, but this is a necessary process for growth , Just like when Zhang Depei just took over Kei Nishikori.

However, less than five months after Groeneveld directed Wu Yibing, he announced the end of this partnership.

At the beginning, Groneveld said euphemistically, "He needs a coach who is more consistent with his mother's views." Later, he gradually learned that Wu Yibing's mother has been interfering in the coach's work, and repeatedly believes that the coach's daily training is too much. Said, overtly disrupting the coach's training plan, and even raised objections to the modification of some technical movements——

Wu Yibing always listens to his mother, which also makes it impossible for Groneweld's coaching work to continue.

later?

Less than four months later, Wu Yibing bid farewell to the arena due to injury, and came back after more than a year. Although he achieved some good results in China's domestic tour, he has no record of participation in ATP-level events. After going around in circles, I still couldn't get out.

At least not until 2021.

In fact, like Wu Yibing, there are countless geniuses whose future has been affected by the interference of their parents, and not only in tennis, but also in other fields.

Fortunately, Gao Hongli and Jiang Yanyun had clear minds.

It's not that they interfered with Gao Wen's training, but that when something happened, they knew that they could trust their manager, and they didn't bother Gao Wen rashly without any verification, and told Gao Wen about these trivial things outside the court, and scattered them. Gawain's attention, this is very important.

After getting Tobias' affirmative answer, Jiang Yanyun relaxed a little and let out a long breath.

Seeing Jiang Yanyun's relieved look, Tobias laughed, "Don't worry, as long as you don't sign any agreement in black and white, then everything will be fine."

Jiang Yanyun was also amused, "Don't sign any document that you haven't read carefully, isn't this basic common sense?"

Tobias nodded affirmatively, "If I'm not wrong, the couple didn't have any malicious intentions. They should be representatives of Adidas, and they came here specially to win you over. The exhibition in Brooklyn today was co-organized by Adidas."

That's it!

"Adidas has been trying to open up the situation through fashion, trying to make sports fashionable and environmentally friendly, and then become a part of popular culture. They really have a lot of activities in this area. If you are interested, you can go to participate. No need Worry."

Not only did Tobias not panic, but he became happier because Adidas made a move——

Before the start of the semi-finals, the relationship between Gao Hongli and Jiang Yanyun was established. If there is no mistake, the couple will also attend the semi-finals, and then create a chance encounter with Gao Hongli and Jiang Yanyun to further narrow the relationship.

Jiang Yanyun didn't quite understand, "But, what do they hope to achieve through us? I thought they would insert a check and ask us to persuade Gao Wen to sign the contract."

Is it so straightforward?
Tobias laughed happily, "A big company like Adidas will not be so simple and rude. They will first establish an emotional link, then understand your preferences, and take your preferences into consideration when submitting a cooperation plan." , to create a tailor-made plan for Gao Wen, and finally match it with a number that we cannot refuse, this is the correct way to compete."

Adidas knows that if they start spending money purely with Nike, it is estimated that both sides will lose, so they need more reasonable and sensible means.

Obviously, Gao Wen's interpersonal relationship is very simple so far. One side should be the coaching team of the Bruins team, and the other side is Gao Wen's parents. Therefore, if Adidas wants to enter Gao Wen's life circle, it is nothing more than choosing a breakthrough between the two .

But no matter what the specifics are, this also means that Gao Wen's weight with Adidas has risen to a new level. Anyway, Adidas was not so active and did not spend so much time in fighting for Bouchard in May this year.

Jiang Yanyun slightly raised his chin, "So you're saying that it doesn't matter if we go to those activities?"

"Yes, enjoy yourself, if they give you any gifts, you can accept them calmly." Tobias encouraged, "Just tell me after you accept it, at least let me understand what happened." Then he Check out what can be done.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yanyun and Gao Hongli exchanged glances, and then both shook their heads.

"I still won't go." Jiang Yanyun said, "Gao Wen's competition is more important."

"As for which brand to sign, I'll leave it to you, and we won't interfere with your profession." Gao Hongli added.

Tobias looked at the couple who had reached a consensus in front of him, and he was able to read their minds immediately. They were considering Gao Wen wholeheartedly.

With such a solid backing, Gao Wen will be able to fight hard in the arena, which is undoubtedly an important condition for Gao Wen to achieve excellent results.

"Don't worry, leave everything to me. I'm trying my best to get a big contract for Gao Wen." Tobias said in a relaxed tone, revealing a sense of confidence from the inside out.

Soon, Tobias realized that everything was moving in the wildest and craziest direction. To be precise, everything was moving in Gawain's favor——

But at the same time, it also means that the pressure continues to rise.
