At the post-match press conference, keen reporters did not miss this incident and asked questions without hurting Ferrer and Tomic.
"Gawain, Gregor, the attendance of your doubles match in Indian Wells was very good. It topped the box office for two consecutive days, even surpassing the match between Roger and Rafa at the Center Court, and also surpassing yourselves.
singles match, which is obviously a beautiful sight."
"The same goes for today's game."
"When the game just started, Court No. 2 was almost full, even more than the first round. There is no doubt that this is the most popular event today, but after the game, the audience left."
"It seems that they came here specially for you. You have received a lot of love in the desert. Do you have any special feelings about this?"
This is a thorny issue. If you are not careful, you may step on innocent Ferrer and Tomic, and may also attack the fans of the Big Four.
Dimitrov smiled and subconsciously turned to look at Gawain. As a result, he saw Gawain looking over, with an expression of shirk of responsibility on his face.
Dimitrov was very surprised. His eyes widened and he muttered in a low voice, "Shouldn't you be the one to answer this? What do you think I'm going to do?"
Even so, the smile in his eyes was flowing out, and he was obviously joking.
Gawain's face was innocent, just like Bambi. He turned to look at the reporter and spread his hands.
"They obviously came here for Gregor, you shouldn't ask me."
"My personal irresponsible guess is that they may have thought that Gregor signed up for mixed doubles this time, but when they came over and saw that it was men's doubles, they didn't seem to hate me that much, so they stayed..."
Mixed doubles?
Wait, what does this mean?
All the reporters in the audience were dumbfounded. Did Gao Wen just make fun of Dimitrov and Sharapova?
Journalists don't dare. It's not that they haven't tried it, but that they have tried it countless times but failed so many times that they have given up.
Now, Gawain picked up a metaphor at random and hit Dimitrov's weakness in secret. Is this really good? Will Sharapova not explode?
Before he finished speaking, Dimitrov hugged his head and exclaimed, "Gawain!"
Only Gawain is so bold——
Which pot should not be opened?
Others don't know that Dimitrov and Sharapova's relationship has been on a cold war lately, but doesn't Gao Wen still know?
As a result, Gawain just made fun of the two of them.
Dimitrov thought he would be angry, sad or depressed. In fact, he was not. The most important thing was Gawain's tone. His easy ridicule easily made the atmosphere cheerful. His light tone was full of jokes and complaints.
Even Dimitrov wanted to laugh a little.
The problem is, it’s not appropriate to laugh out loud now, right?
Dimitrov didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
But what can he do with Gawain?
Dimitrov looked at the sky with a look of despair, his soul was out of his body, and he looked like a mummy.
Gawain also seemed to realize that his joke was "a little bit dangerous". He tightened the corners of his mouth, smiled into his eyes, and changed the subject.
"I think my high school classmates and college classmates should have mobilized all the relatives and friends they can contact, and everyone is trying to make me feel the warmth of my hometown."
"In fact, besides my real hometown, California can really be regarded as my second home, and I spend a lot of time here."
"Maybe I don't have a global home court, but now it seems that I have a second home court."
"Okay, okay, they all came here to see me. Gregor is my foil, my exclusive caddy, and the Indian Wells Tennis Garden is my Melbourne Park. How about it, do you feel a little more real now?"
Are you feeling scared? Have you started to tremble?"
As he talked, Gawain began to let himself go. The more he spoke, the more exaggerated and outrageous he became, taking all the credit and halo on himself.
However, the lifelike expression is really funny.
"Look! I am the King of the Indian Wells Tennis Garden! Uh, wait, King of the Garden, why does this sound weird? There should be no ambiguity, right?"
Gawain supported his chin and fell into deep thought. With an annoyed expression on his face, he began to examine himself.
Ha ha!
The whole audience burst into laughter.
Even Dimitrov was no exception. He was unable to continue in his mummy state and immediately broke down, almost choking on his own saliva.
It turned out that the reporters were indeed ready to make a move——
What does such an outstanding and strong attendance rate mean? Does it mean that Gao Wen is fully challenging the dominance of the Big Four?
After all, this is a treatment that Wawrinka cannot enjoy for the time being, but Gao Wen's commercial value is shining brightly, from Nike's global layout, to Gao Wen's own Chinese background, to the comprehensive pursuit of tennis professionals, Gao Wen
The market appeal is indeed rising.
China is the most important market in the world. Everyone knows this. Different competitive sports have the same goal, which is to win the favor of the Chinese audience and carve up a big cake with strawberries and cream. This is also
An important strategy for global layout.
Tennis is naturally no exception, which is why Gao Wen has become the darling of the market.
but!
In just half a year, they witnessed Gao Wen's overwhelming popularity sweeping the world. It was so fast and so fierce that it was really shocking.
Let's imagine--
In the first-round match between Federer and Nadal on the center court, the attendance rate was not higher than that of the doubles match on the second court. This is indeed rare.
Even amazing!
Throughout the 2015 season, "Big Four VS Challengers" has been a hot topic throughout. Reporters have never given up looking for opportunities to sow discord and fan flames; now, offensive weapons are directly thrust into their hands, how could they miss it?
There is absolutely no reason.
The headline makers already have several candidates in mind:
"Gao Wen overthrew Federer and Nadal, and the new king ascended the throne!"
"Gao Wen's heat wave swept Indian Wells, and Federer also avoided three points."
And so on and so forth.
If it's a little more intense, you can learn from Ser Young's words from back then, "The old king is dead, and the new king has ascended the throne." This light sentence is enough to turn the entire tennis market upside down. It is easy to predict the bloody storm of social networks and ignite this.
The reporters who are keeping the lights on can just watch the show.
One and two are gearing up and eager to try. After Melbourne, reporters are ready for a new battle, the second round of "Gaowen VS Media".
However, Gawain was able to use his self-defeating skills to stifle all subsequent attacks one step ahead of time. Even if the reporter forced a question, Gawain could still respond with sarcasm.
The joy and relaxation in the entire press conference room made it deeply felt that the reporters had missed the best opportunity to attack.
In the blink of an eye, the topic of Sharapova came up but it was gone, and the topic of provoking the Big Four came up but it was gone.
Looking at Gawain who looked as innocent as Bambi in front of him, the reporter felt helpless.
