Generally speaking, television broadcasts of tennis are often divided into two types:
One is full cooperation and official broadcasting, which means obtaining the broadcasting rights for the entire event. As for which game to broadcast, it is up to the TV station itself.
This is the cooperation agreement signed between China's CCTV 5 and the Australian Open. This is also one of the Australian Open's comprehensive promotion strategies in the Pan-Pacific region.
One is partial cooperation, choosing to broadcast, purchasing the official broadcast signal of the event, and which game will be broadcast live is determined by the event, which is an international signal.
On the whole, International Signal is a panoramic live broadcast, focusing mainly on the games in the center court, but at the same time, it will take into account all games, update the progress and results of other events in a timely manner, and occasionally insert important scores and exciting rounds of worthy events, comprehensively covering the entire
The excitement of the competition.
If the TV station is going to broadcast a specific game separately and they judge that this game can win more ratings in their own country and region, then they need to purchase the additional broadcast rights for this game separately, replace the international signal, and broadcast the entire game separately.
Live stream this match.
Last year's US Open was a typical example——
CCTV initially only purchased international signals; after Gao Wen was born, they separately purchased Gao Wen's game broadcast rights.
Here, we need to pay attention to one thing: why is Federer said to be the global home court?
Part of the reason is because he travels to different parts of the world to compete, and local fans are always the most supportive of him, and their treatment is comparable to that of the host country or even better than some of the host country players.
Part of the reason is that when his events are broadcast live on TV stations, they are always the most popular, and various countries and regions hope to purchase the broadcast rights of his events individually.
There is no doubt that Roland Garros is no exception; however, this time, the situation may have changed slightly.
Look back to the present moment.
If you put the clues together bit by bit, you can see the clues——
The one Ethan was prepared to teach a lesson... was not Gawain, but Federer.
First, Federer was squeezed into Susan Lenglen.
Secondly, the two men's singles matches will be held in the second match at the same time.
This also means that except for China, Switzerland, Spain and other countries and regions that have purchased separate broadcast signals, most other regions in the world will broadcast the official international signal of the French Open. You can predict with your toes that the international signal should be
Quasi-Philippe-Chatier Stadium.
Of course, externally, Isern’s choice is “impeccable”——
Although the Swiss Derby attracts much attention, Federer's global appeal is unparalleled, and Wawrinka is also a very important member of the "Challenger League".
But since this year, Gao Wen has become the leader of the Challenger League and the new generation of youth storms, completely disrupting the dominance of the Big Four. From world rankings to competition championships to superstar temperament, Gao Wen's overall rise has been unstoppable.
It seems to be the biggest hot spot at the moment.
The meeting of Nadal and Godin in the quarterfinals is a collision that has firmly occupied the top spot of hot topics since the French Open draw was released this year. It can be said that Mars collides with the earth. This event is scheduled to be held at the Philippe Chatier Stadium.
, from every angle, it is impeccable.
From commercial considerations such as ratings and attendance, Ethan is also in an invincible position. This is definitely not an impulsive and reckless decision.
Maybe it's regretful or sad, but Yisern's choice is beyond reproach.
Moreover, Yisern can also show his tolerance and magnanimity, which is in sharp contrast with Gawain's youthfulness and sharpness, showing his sophistication and wisdom, and his ability to stand up to his superiors, instantly reducing Gawain to a "junior"
" position, Yisern firmly occupies the status of senior elder.
one stone two bird.
On the surface, he defused Gawain's frontal attack invisible, repaying evil with kindness, and demonstrated Ethan's crisis public relations capabilities as the event director.
Secretly, he gave Federer a dumb loss. Although it was not a big deal, it could make Federer's team uncomfortable and once again prove his status——
He is the tournament director of the French Open and the Paris Masters. He is also a influential figure in French tennis and even in the world of tennis. He disdains to argue with a young kid like Gao Wen, but this does not mean that he is timid and scared. He can compete with
Federer fights head-on.
Faced with such a situation, Federer may not be able to say much. If he is not careful, it may turn into an attack on Nadal and Gauvin - do you think they are not worthy of Philippe Chatier's treatment? Or is he arrogant?
Does Dadi think Susan Rundgren is not worthy of her position?
With Federer's intelligence, it is absolutely impossible for him to express any opinions.
Isern's move is not only grand, but also smart——
More than just killing two birds with one stone, it was like killing two birds with one stone and turning the situation around easily.
Otherwise, when faced with Federer's accusations and protests, how could Ethan have the confidence to respond with "fuss"? This is his ability.
High, really high!
Wow!
There was an uproar.
The reporters are all old foxes, and all the twists and turns behind the schedule have been sorted out in the blink of an eye.
Admire, sigh, marvel...
More importantly, reporters can also guess that Federer, Wawrinka, Nadal and Gawain, the four parties involved will not make any comments. No matter how reporters attack or provoke, they will not respond directly to the venue arrangement.
This matter should end here——
Even if they wanted to respond, the PR team would stop them.
Originally, the reporters were still waiting for a good show, but in the end, Yisern eliminated the whole incident by downplaying it. So who has the upper hand?
Federer and Gawain?
not necessarily.
After all, Isern only fired a group of security staff and banned a child from entering Roland Garros, without breaking a sweat.
It wasn’t until six months in the future that people realized:
Although Federer and Gao Wen did not have the upper hand, Isern once again proved that old age is still the best; but at the same time, Issern also exposed its weaknesses.
Isern has been in a high position for many years and is used to giving orders in a condescending manner, refusing to admit mistakes and advancing with the times. Therefore, when facing Federer's accusations, instead of reflecting on improving security work, he shirks all responsibilities to the staff and makes Federer suffer.
A dull loss.
But Isern did not realize that the factional enemies within the French Tennis Association were waiting for him to take action. His arrogance became the inducement, and then became an opportunity for the enemies to promote the storm within the French Tennis Association. Waiting for him to react
, everything has been out of control.
So, did Ethan win?
nor.
For Federer and Nadal, and even for Wawrinka, they have been in the professional tennis world for a long time and have experienced similar incidents. They also know clearly that where there are people, there is right and wrong, even within the players' union.
There are also many differences and controversies.
They have become accustomed to it.
But for Gao Wen, this was indeed the first time he saw the power struggle outside of professional tennis matches. He deeply realized that the relationship between the tournament, ATP and players is far from simple as it seems. If you want to become a top superstar or even
It is not enough for an icon to just win championships.
