Tobias realized that he was only slightly slower by half a beat - no, maybe even less than a quarter of a beat, and things were whizzing by like a tornado.
Then, Gawain has taken control of the situation, so... is Gawain the new Flash?
On the one hand, Tobias is very happy because Gawain is always reassuring and there is no need to worry about unexpected situations or risks of cleaning up the mess.
But on the other hand, Tobias is a little regretful that he has no place for himself, and he is ready to roll up his sleeves and go out to prove himself.
"...Oh, this is an interesting little guy. It seems that tennis is finally a little more interesting."
An English with a thick accent came to my ears, and the aroma of cigars wafted faintly in the air, announcing the host's appearance in advance.
As soon as you turn your head, you can see an elegant and humble face, with a slight smile on the round cheeks. He looks like a children's doctor or a court clerk. He is neatly dressed in a dark gray suit.
The combed hair reveals a meticulous style.
Kind, kind, even kind-hearted.
It’s hard to imagine that this is Jorge Mendes, the top agent who dominates the entire international football world. He has single-handedly built an entire business empire since 2004 and is now the most influential and influential football player in the world.
One of the big guys.
In fact, he is so simple and friendly, just like his next door neighbor. It doesn't feel out of place to say he is the man from the corner shop.
However, Tobias will never judge a book by its appearance——
This is one of the stupidest mistakes in real life.
Tobias clearly knows that from an ordinary player in the C-League to a small owner of a video rental store to the most powerful football agent in the five major European leagues, Mendes' ability to get to where he is today from scratch is definitely not due to
"Kindness" and "kindness".
Just now, Tobias was still wondering whether Mendes would be present in person today. After all, such a trivial matter as shooting an advertisement did not require Mendes to personally take part.
But if Mendes appears, it means that Nike should make big moves.
"Oh? Mr. Mendes also watches tennis?"
"Look, of course, who can say no to Federer and Nadal? Although they lack a little humor in real life, their performance on the court is beyond doubt."
After a pause, Mendes added, "What's more, tennis is different from football and basketball. They are both street sports, but tennis is a noble sport."
Therefore, the last half sentence should be the focus.
If you carefully look at the VIP boxes of the four Grand Slam tennis tournaments, you will find that people from the upper class appear very frequently. Even at Wimbledon, the royal family sends representatives to watch the games every year. Even the Queen has gone to watch the games many times.
, this honor is not available in other competitive sports.
It is precisely because of this that the tennis court is considered a high-end social occasion. Top stars from other sports often appear at the scene to check their faces. Even Sir Alex Ferguson and Roman Abramovich
Big guys like Roman-Abramovich are no exception.
Naturally, for senior agents like Mendes, how could they miss it? A little bit of tennis knowledge/common sense is basic etiquette in social situations.
It's probably no coincidence that Mendes appeared at today's commercial shooting scene.
Tobias added meaningfully, "Golf and equestrian are also noble sports."
"But their market value is not as good as that of tennis, and their global penetration rate lags far behind."
"Ha, it seems that Mr. Mendes has launched an in-depth investigation. Does this mean that you are ready to enter a new field?"
"No, no, no, no, tennis and football are two different things. I like tennis, it is an elegant sport, but my heart always beats for football."
Tobias watched Mendes carefully, and he noticed that Mendes and Gawain had one thing in common:
When they speak, they are always very sincere and persuasive. Their innate charm and courage are quietly hidden in their movements, without any aggression at all, and they can make people unconsciously.
People fall.
Maybe, this is a kind of talent.
Mendes noticed Tobias's gaze, and not only did he not avoid it, but he also took the initiative to meet his gaze and showed a warm smile.
Then, speaking meaningfully, "Gawain, right?"
"This kid reminds me of when I first saw Cristiano. He was small and thin, but his eyes were bright."
"It is a belief. Some people say it is the ambition to win, but I say it is the power of dreams."
The praise given in a social occasion seemed to be meaningful and meaningful.
This reminded Tobias of his first meeting with Gawain. Things were obviously not as simple as they seemed on the surface, and his smile bloomed, "John Tobias."
"Jorge Mendes." Mendes took Tobias's right hand and took out a business card from his pocket.
Football and tennis?
Eight poles have nothing to do with each other.
But who knows?
Competitive sports are all members of the same family, and the gap between different sports is actually not as far away as imagined. No one can be sure what will happen in the future; more importantly, the global business market is highly integrated, and the existence of social networks will further
Breaking down barriers across projects.
From this perspective, Mendes is still better than Tobias.
Tobias humbly asked for advice, understood immediately, and took out his business card from his pocket to complete the exchange.
At the Bernabeu Stadium, the advertising shooting team was all ready. After a brief communication, the shooting started.
The so-called "challenge", of course, cannot be that Gao Wen really challenged Ronaldo through football.
Every other line is like a mountain.
Gao Wen's skills are as good as those of primary school students. He can show off his skills in front of laymen, so there is no need to show off in front of Guan Gong. What's more, this is an advertisement broadcast around the world, which is a shame and will be thrown to Mars.
went.
In the same way, C-Ronaldo is not allowed to play tennis. This top superstar has no interest in coming thousands of miles away to kill someone.
"Challenge" is a misplacement.
When the director announced "shooting", Gao Wen stood in front of the goal, while Ronaldo stood at the front of the penalty area.
Gao Wen held a racket and bounced the tennis ball, while Ronaldo bounced the football. Both of them bounced the ball in their own familiar way and began to compete with each other.
This is pure acrobatics.
C-Ronaldo originally thought he was sure of victory, but he saw that Gao Wen made full use of the racket and body, from the racket frame, racket surface, racket handle, grip and other points, to the top of the head, shoulders, arms, knees and insteps, etc.
Multiple points, and even the most amazing one is to finish the ball with the cheek.
Eye-opening!
C-Ronaldo laughed several times because Gao Wen deliberately issued a "provocation" with exaggerated eyes. Then the tennis ball was smaller than a football and more flexible when flipped. The tricks were endless and dazzling. It was a rare opportunity to catch C-Ronaldo off guard.
