In this room, the reporters tried to contain Gawain but failed. No matter how they arranged and cut it, it would be difficult to create a flower, which was depressing.
On that side, the reporters who failed to intercept rushed to another stadium, preparing to put all their bets on another "exploding point".
Two hours later, Zverev Jr. came on the stage to face his second-round opponent.
I don’t know whether it is due to his own condition or the pressure brought by the attention off the court, but Zverev’s game is still somewhat stumbling.
In the first set, the two sides were very tight, and Zverev only relied on one break of serve to win "6:4".
However, in the second set, Zverev was not able to show his dominance as expected. The game was still very anxious. Amidst breaks and counter-breaks, Zverev struggled all the way to "6:6" and entered the tie-break.
Subsequently, while saving set points and wasting break points, both opponents got some opportunities and missed some. The final score was fixed at "12:10", and it was Zverev who won with his deeper strength.
No matter what, victory is victory after all, and it is a victory in straight sets. Successfully advancing to the next round is the most important, but such a process and score are not what people expected at all.
Because Binghamton is only at the challenge level, and because there is so much expectation and attention on Zverev, everyone expects his performance to be stronger and more exciting. However, in the first and second rounds,
The overall performance has fluctuated significantly, which is inevitably disappointing:
"The favorite to win the championship, that's it?"
You can tell by thinking about it with your knees that after the game, the reporters will never let Zverev go easily.
This is also true. Zverev was so crowded by more than 30 reporters that he could hardly walk. The surging crowd blocked Zverev's path. The dense crowd of people was really breathtaking. Even if he didn't want to be interviewed, he couldn't move.
There is absolutely no escape.
Buzz buzz.
Buzz!
It's like a hundred thousand flies are lingering in your ears, it's annoying but you can't get rid of it.
"How is your condition today?", "How would you rate your own game?", "Is it because of the time difference and weather that your condition is not at its best?", "How do you evaluate today's opponents?", "Do you think you are in the best position?"
Can you adjust to the best in the following games?", "Are you satisfied with your performance?"...
Deja vu.
The same venue, the same characters, the same questions, the scenes from yesterday and today were copied and pasted like this, and the reporters still showed no mercy to little Zverev.
"Sasha, Gao also advanced successfully today. You two players are advancing hand in hand. If we keep this momentum, it is very likely that we will face each other in the finals. What do you think of Gao's performance?"
Going hand in hand?
Keeping pace?
The reporters actually juxtaposed little Zverev with that unknown person. Just the wording and tone of the questions made people feel upset.
Zverev replied angrily, "I don't know, I'm just focusing on my own game and I haven't watched other players' games for the time being."
This answer has suppressed a lot of negative emotions and avoided being angered by reporters as much as possible.
But the reporters could feel Zverev's depression, so they continued to fan the flames.
"Sasha, you are still not at your best, but Gao's hand is getting hotter and hotter. If you two play against each other, are you still confident of winning the championship?"
Zverev Jr.:???
What is this about forcibly creating conflicts?
Because the agent did not say hello in advance, little Zverev had no idea about the Internet craze, and he had no idea what his words meant. He just felt inexplicably, why are these people holding on to an unknown person? Is his father a big shot?
Can't it?
Zverev's irritability surged in his chest, "No, I don't think he can be a threat."
He hit back with a direct retort, with a hint of disgust in his eyes, but the turbid air in his chest still could not be vented. Looking at the eagerly expectant eyes of the reporters in front of him, he said viciously:
"Who is he? I don't know him!"
boom!
Again!
That offensive sentence appears again!
Then little Zverev pushed aside the surging crowd of reporters and prepared to break through.
But how could reporters be willing to let go of their prey so easily? They followed little Zverev step by step. Not only did they not feel annoyed or regretful, but they also rushed forward with great interest, like a shark smelling the smell of blood.
Biting little Zverev's flesh and blood, he kept tearing.
"Sasha, Gao said he would let you remember his name!"
The words are the same, but the differences in context, tone, and intonation can convey completely different attitudes. The reporter in front of him looked at little Zverev with a strong sense of provocation, mixed with the heat of the sun.
He rushed over and hit the bridge of his nose as hard as a punch.
Full of strength.
After little Zverev tried to break away from the circle of reporters and failed, a harsh sound came over him. Then he turned his head and almost hit the reporter's microphone. He felt a round and hard thing moving towards him relentlessly.
His heart almost jumped out of his mouth when he stuffed it into his mouth, and he looked at the reporter who asked the question angrily.
"Then let him try."
The voice emerged from deep in the throat, with a slightly hoarse roar, like a demon showing its claws and striking back mercilessly.
More importantly, Zverev burst out with a powerful force from the inside out and pushed reporters to break out of a passage. As a result, the reporters were too crowded and his balance was severely damaged.
When you step back, if you lose your footing, you will fall to the ground like dominoes.
Zverev hesitated for a moment, but finally rushed out, striding away, leaving a chaos behind him.
Hula la.
Hula la.
The scene was a mess.
"Zverev, feeling the severe challenge from Gao, became angry and had a serious physical conflict with reporters."
You can feel the reporter’s maliciousness just from the news headlines.
In fact, little Zverev's irritability is not directly related to Gao Wen, but the reporters deliberately connected it in this way, as if little Zverev and Gao Wen had just completed a boxing match, and then exaggerated the injuries suffered by reporters at the scene, creating
The illusion of blood flowing into a river, and the thrilling keywords instantly detonated the Internet.
The reporters then attached a large number of photos of the messy scene, like a typhoon passing through. Although they did not say it explicitly, the invisible connections inside and outside the words hinted that all this was caused by little Zverev, which can be called
shocking.
Compared with yesterday, today is a step further. All the attack firepower is tilted towards Zverev. Amidst the bombardment, netizens have no mercy. The overwhelming complaints and curses are like a flood.
It burst out and swallowed little Zverev in an instant.
