Even though he was mentally prepared, Peart couldn't help but clenched his fists when he saw the "grand occasion" of the encirclement and suppression in front of him.
These reporters seem to have forgotten that Gao Wen is only nineteen years old; moreover, he has only entered the professional tour for just half a year. Everything is brand new, strange, fresh, and green. He needs time and experience to slowly settle and polish.
, he needs to face more setbacks, more challenges and more failures.
They need to be more tolerant and caring towards Gawain.
Maybe, the media forgot; maybe, the media didn't forget at all but just didn't care, and they couldn't wait to push Gawain into the whirlpool of controversy.
However, when he turned to look at Gawain, that young and immature face always had a smile, firm and bright, and Peart's chaotic mind calmed down a little.
"... Gao Wen, last year, you led the team to the NCAA championship. Now that you are reliving your old dream, are you determined to win the Davis Cup World Group seat?"
Pressure, pressure, pressure.
Originally, this question was not special or prominent among the chatter, but very unexpectedly, Gao Wen stopped in front of the reporter who asked the question.
Click, click, click… click… click… click…
The bustling sounds calmed down slightly, and the overwhelming flash lights also quieted down, and everyone in the audience paid collective attention.
What's wrong?
Even the reporter was baffled and had no idea what was going on. Wait, could it be that his question accidentally hit something?
The gaze went back and forth between Gawain and the reporter, the flashlights lit up sparsely, and then, a small circle of people around could hear Gawain speak.
"...Russling, rustling...Russling, rustling..."
The entire arrival hall was really too big, and the crowds on the three floors inside and outside were completely swamped, so that Gawain's voice was completely swallowed up by carbon dioxide.
Then, Gawain continued to move forward. Accompanied by Peart and Hamilton, he tore a hole through the crowd like an arrow and walked away. The dense sea of people spread out along the stern of the boat like a boat on the lake.
, and then put it back together again.
Wait, what did Gawain just say?
For a moment, I focused on one thing and lost sight of the other.
Looking at Gawain who was drifting away, and then looking at the reporter who was swallowed up by the crowd, the reporters on the scene all needed to make a choice between lightning and flint.
Finally, a small group of reporters followed Gao Wen and left the airport, while most reporters stayed behind——
The main reason is that reporters are not paparazzi and do not need to follow closely every step of the way. The road chase is completely a fabricated scene in a Hollywood movie; moreover, Gawain's next stop is definitely going to the training ground. This is a known answer.
, they don’t need to worry about not finding the target at all.
then--
"Brother, what on earth did Gawain just say?"
For the thousand and eighth time, people whispered to each other and asked the same question, and the reporters who had just gathered in Gawain's circle became the source of information.
Some people refused to speak mysteriously, while others thought it was harmless and gave the answer directly and generously.
"I didn't lead the team to the NCAA championship."
What?
"Gao Wen said, 'I did not lead the team to the NCAA championship. If you say this, our Bruins team members will be sad.'"
What?
Almost everyone’s first reaction after hearing the answer was full of questions——
That's it?
Just to clarify this sentence, Gawain stopped and explained to the reporter?
Just...that's it?
However, the most ridiculous part is that everyone nodded and answered in the affirmative. Gawain only said this sentence from the beginning to the end.
"By the way, Gao Wen also showed a smile and patted the reporter on the shoulder, 'Remember to recite the basics of news.'"
Ha ha!
Hahaha!
Hamilton endured it again and again, but in the end he couldn't hold it back anymore. He huddled in the corner of the back seat alone, his shoulders shaking violently like chaff.
Simply can not stop.
Even Peart couldn't help but laugh when he recalled the expressions of those reporters.
Some people were dumbfounded, some were stunned, some were shocked, some were confused, some were confused...the strange expressions were really vivid.
Moreover, everyone was in shock because of the unexpectedness, and none of them could react. In the end, they just watched Gawain leave in a daze.
That scene...
I originally thought that the entire exit was blocked and it would take a lot of effort to get out smoothly, but I didn't expect that it would be effortless at all.
Normally, Peart is not a very curious person. He always sticks to his work and devotes himself wholeheartedly to professional matters.
In Peart's view, human wisdom and energy are limited. If you want to achieve something in one thing, you must concentrate and devote 100% without reservation. Only then can you achieve success in a field.
Top, so he has always done this.
But today, Peart also had a rare interest.
"So, Gawain, what is the basic essence of journalism?"
Hamilton also raised his head and looked at Gawain, showing curiosity.
Gao Wen didn't show off and gave the answer directly, "Truth. The basic essence of news is truth."
Pelt:…
Hamilton:…
Why did I feel a little overwhelmed after hearing the answer?
But think about it seriously——
Those reporters probably never dreamed that their professional knowledge would be raided here, and they had all left the campus for many years. Now if they were asked about their professional knowledge, not many of them would be able to remember it, so they were caught off guard by Gawain.
Just think about the picture, it's really beautiful.
Pelt couldn't help but wonder what the structure of Gawain's head was like.
Maybe, Sampras is right, they just need to believe in Gawain. Faced with different situations, Gawain will know how to deal with them.
Involuntarily, my mind calmed down a little again, and I was getting closer and closer to my destination. Instead, I no longer had the nervousness and anxiety I felt when I was on the plane.
Looking out the window, the blue sky and white clouds of New Zealand spread out in front of me. The city is so clean that there is no trace of pollution. It is clear and bright, and the whole vision and mind are broadened.
Then, the dark green lotus-shaped court of the ASB Tennis Center appeared at the end of the horizon——
This stadium was built in the 1980s and is where the ASB Classic Women's Tennis Championships and the Heineken Men's Tennis Open are held every year.
For a long time, the court was played on clay; later, in 2010, the tournament organizing committee secured sponsorship and invested 25 million to renovate and upgrade the court. They chose a hard court that was closer to the times and easier to maintain.
Moreover, it is slightly different from the Australian Open in that the concrete hard court is chosen here, and the material is closer to the US Open.
After completion in 2012, it also has a world-class top tennis venue.
From this perspective, playing in Oakland and warming up for Indian Wells and Miami can be regarded as a small additional gain.
The stadium is getting closer, getting closer, and in the blink of an eye, it is already in front of you.
