Chapter 294 "Fate"

"An Sheng lived up to expectations, set another record, and successfully entered the third round of the Australian Open! He became the first player in the Chinese men's tennis world to enter the third round of the main draw."

"Every step forward by An Sheng means that our Huaguo men's tennis team has taken a step forward."

"There is no doubt that An Sheng is already the strongest player among Huaguo men's tennis players. His future will be a process of constantly creating records."

"The leader of men's tennis in Huaguo! An Sheng made another great achievement and entered the third round of the Australian Open!"

"..."

For a while, the news that An Sheng had successfully entered the third round of the Australian Open spread overwhelmingly.

The first to act, of course, were the major online media, followed by the CCTV sports channel and the news channel, all of which made special reports on it.

There is no doubt that this has greatly enhanced An Sheng's reputation in Huaguo, and made him a top sports star in Huaguo almost overnight.

But the problem is not without problems. Many media, probably in order to attract the audience, have attached some exaggerated names to Ansheng, such as "the leader of China's tennis world", "the leading figure", "a rare encounter in a century" Tennis Genius", and so on.

This seemed a bit exaggerated, and made many people who didn't know the truth of the matter think that An Sheng had done something earth-shattering.

And An Sheng, who was far away in Melbourne, learned the news through his gossip-loving coach Fortes.

He just laughed it off and didn't pay too much attention to it, because he knew very well that the achievements he had made so far were really insignificant and not worthy of such praise.

Of course, he didn't completely ignore it. Just like Sandy said before, he can dismiss public opinion in his heart, but he can't help but make his own voice.

Even if the public opinion this time seems to be very beneficial to him and has contributed to his reputation, it still has a lot of exaggeration. An Sheng needs to make his voice heard and calm down his fans.

Whether they listen or not is another matter.

On the second day, An Sheng took the time to accept an interview with CCTV reporters. During the interview, he repeatedly emphasized that he has not really reached this level, and it is difficult for him to achieve excellent results in Grand Slam events. , I hope that the fans will treat it calmly.

But what made An Sheng a little upset was that in the news broadcast on the CCTV sports channel that day, his words were not broadcast at all, and all of them were cut out.

On the contrary, some empty words, such as what do you think the fans support, I will continue to work hard and strive for better results, etc., have become the main content of its reports.

Fortunately, An Sheng also made two-handed preparations. In addition to being interviewed by CCTV, he specially recorded a short video and posted it on his Weibo.

In this storm of public opinion, there is actually another issue that everyone is deliberately avoiding, that is, the prediction of An Sheng's next round of competition.

The reason for this is very simple, because in the next round of competition, An Sheng's winning rate is very low!

The key is that his opponent is the No. 2 seed in the 4/1 zone, who is also the No. 2 seed in this Australian Open, and Wawrinka, who is currently ranked No. 2 in the world.

In this way, there is no need to say much, everyone can easily guess that An Sheng's trip to the Australian Open may come to an end here.

And this news is obviously contrary to the news they praised An Sheng, so naturally, the media chose to ignore it.

As for the future, it is not difficult to deal with it. Either deal with it coldly, or simply ignore it. This is the usual method of these irresponsible media.

But having said that, for this match with Wawrinka, An Sheng did not give up, or in other words, he still has a goal that he wants to accomplish.

In fact, needless to say, An Sheng definitely wants to experience for himself the strength of the top ten players in the world today and see what kind of level they have reached.

This point is still very important to him, because it will involve his positioning of himself. He needs to know what level he has reached before he can compete with the top players in the world, instead of aiming too high , nor belittle oneself.

By the way, since his opponent is Wawrinka, who has attracted much attention, Anson's third round of the main match was arranged at Hisense Stadium, one of the main venues.

On January 1, at 20 pm, the match between Anson and Wawrinka officially started.

As soon as the game started, the strength gap between the two players was very obvious.

Facing Wawrinka's serve, An Sheng was reluctant to catch it, but what made him even more irresistible was Wawrinka's first attack.

His physical fitness, pace movement, forehand and backhand skills, etc., are all obviously superior to An Sheng.

More importantly, in terms of mental attributes, that is, in terms of reaction speed, anticipation, and timing, Wawrinka is also stronger than An Sheng.

In fact, this was the first time An Sheng met an opponent who was stronger than him in terms of spiritual attributes after he got the second-stage bonus of spiritual attributes.

And there is no doubt that An Sheng, who was at a disadvantage in all aspects, soon fell into an extremely passive situation, completely suppressed and beaten by Wawrinka, and there was almost no room for resistance.

However, An Sheng did not forget his mission, and he has already completed this game as a high-intensity training game for him.

Therefore, even though he was in an extremely passive situation, he did not give up, but tried his best to exert his full strength. While getting training, he was also testing Wawrinka's strength.

And when the game came to the third set, An Sheng found it very interesting, and afterwards felt very fortunate that a change appeared.

In fact, at this point in the game, there was already no suspense about the outcome of the game.

Probably because of this, and in addition, he may want to save An Sheng a little face, or he may have other ideas. In short, Wawrinka slowed down his offensive.

In this way, An Sheng is given a chance to play. After all, although his hard power is not good enough, which is quite different from Wawrinka, he still has some strength in soft power, especially in prediction and timing. of.

Of course, even at this point, An Sheng is still inferior to Wawrinka.

In the end, Wawrinka easily won with a big score of 3 to 0, and also eliminated Ansheng.

But when the game ended, An Sheng suddenly had a strange feeling and subconsciously turned on the system on his body.

"I actually made a breakthrough like this!"
