My name is Gao Wen, a tennis player currently studying at UCLA, playing for the Bruins, and currently competing in this year's US Open.
I sincerely extend an invitation, hoping that you can come to watch my game and make my mother's dream come true.
…
My sincere thanks again.
Yours, Gawain."
After his upset victory over Isner in the first round, Gao Wen personally wrote an invitation letter and conveyed it to Agassi through Tobias. He sincerely hoped that Agassi could come to watch the game, but the real reason was that
Jiang Yanyun’s dream.
In the invitation letter, Gao Wen mentioned his mother's love for tennis during his childhood, and his choice of tennis among many sports. Everything came from the influence of Agassi. Until now, many years after Agassi retired, his mother's favorite
The tennis players haven't changed either.
This time, Jiang Yanyun was able to come to New York to watch the U.S. Tennis Open and sit in the Arthur Ashe Stadium to watch a match up close. This has fulfilled Jiang Yanyun's dream, but unfortunately, this dream did not come true.
Complete, but still missing the most important part of the soul.
So Gawain sent out an invitation letter.
According to the original plan, Gao Wen hoped that Agassi could come to watch his second round match, because for Gao Wen, he did not set long-term goals, but worked hard game by game and then looked at the results.
No matter what, he never thought that he would be able to reach the top 16 stage.
The invitation was passed to Agassi through Tobias, but it was obvious that Agassi could not agree to the invitation of a random stranger to watch the game. He also had his own plans and considerations, and he appeared in the stands and in the stadium.
Player box, these are two different things——
Especially when there is Sampras in the player box.
Agassi doesn't want the media to make random assumptions.
Unexpectedly, Gao Wen sang a triumphant song all the way, and in the blink of an eye it was already the second week, and then Sampras also personally called to invite Agassi.
After careful consideration, Agassi agreed to the request.
Looking at the cameras aimed at him, Agassi felt a little regretful. He felt that he should have been tricked by Sampras. But when he turned to look at Jiang Yanyun sitting next to him, Agassi smiled again. Maybe this was also true.
Not a bad thing.
At this time, Jiang Yanyun was not as free and cheerful as usual.
Gao Hongli remembered that the last time he saw Sampras, Jiang Yanyun was generous and entertained the guests enthusiastically. But what happened when he saw Agassi today? He could feel the restraint, straight spine and
His dignified demeanor makes him look like another person.
"What's going on with you? Be natural." Gao Hongli muttered against Jiang Yanyun's ear.
Jiang Yanyun secretly glanced at Gao Hongli and issued a warning with his eyes, but in fact his expression and movements did not change. He turned to look at the court and showed a shy smile, "Mr. Agassi, what do you think of today's game?
"
Seeing Jiang Yanyun's posture, Gao Hongli was both amused and speechless. He looked up to the sky and sighed: What the hell is this?
"Please call me Andre." Agassi also stumbled a bit when speaking, even a little shy, "Obviously this will be a difficult game, but we still need to see the state after the game starts to know the details.
Peter should know the situation better than I do."
Sampras joked slowly and leisurely, "But Ms. Jiang should want to listen to Andre's explanation more, right?"
Idols and superstars are different after all.
There is no doubt that Sampras is a legendary superstar, but Jiang Yanyun can still remain calm and collected in the face of such a dazzling superstar, just like when he saw a movie shooting location. The novelty is novel, but many of them are the same.
It feels like Alice in Wonderland.
But Agassi is different. He is an idol. He is everything he once dreamed of, liked, and expected. He is a perfect incarnation, as if it should not exist in real life at all. Now it is like dragging Jiang Yanyun directly into the movie, his own
Dreams all evolve into reality.
Subconsciously, the emotions of tension and happiness, panic and joy were intertwined, and they stiffened uncontrollably.
It has nothing to do with age, it is the same at any time and any place when facing idols.
Normally, Jiang Yanyun would have laughed gracefully when faced with Sampras's joke, but not now. He only had one idea in his mind, which was to show the most perfect side of himself and distance himself slightly——
Idols are meant to be admired, not approached.
Many times, getting too close can lead to disillusionment.
In fact, Jiang Yanyun's restraint was precisely to keep a distance, and Agassi, who was not good at speaking, also became restrained.
Sampras's face looked like a crowd watching a good show, and he was very happy; but the air pressure around Gao Hongli seemed to be a little lower, and his eyebrows looked a little serious.
The atmosphere is very weird.
So much so that Tobias, who arrived late, raised countless questions: Did he miss anything exciting?
Naturally, Sampras would not pierce the window paper, otherwise it would not be fun, so he took Tobias and changed the subject.
"How's it going? Is everything arranged?"
The reason why Tobias was late was because this game really attracted countless attention, including Nike, Adidas, Fila, Crocodile and many other brands, all of which sent representatives to watch the game. Obviously they also wanted to get close
Look at Gao Wen's performance, especially his playing temperament on the field.
This is a good thing.
Moreover, when Sampras and Agassi both appeared in the player's box, not only the media, but also these brands must pay more attention to the topic effect. The blessing aura of the two heavyweight superstars is absolutely extraordinary, so much so that Louis Armstrong
The atmosphere of the stadium has also undergone subtle changes.
From all aspects, this game is very important. The outcome is the first to bear the brunt, but the idol temperament and leadership temperament shown by Gao Wen in the game are equally important. After all, Grand Slam champions are rare, but Federer and Nadal are like this.
A global icon is even more rare.
Compared with the result of victory or defeat, Tobias hopes that Gawain can show the bloody spirit and tenacity of fighting head-on.
Tobias would not worry about this, because he was impressed by Gawain's characteristics at first, and eventually became Gawain's agent. In just two months, he followed Gawain's growth.
After working hard, Tobias was full of confidence——
Even facing Wawrinka, Tobias believes that Gawain can make a show and let the world see the shining qualities in him.
However, Tobias' estimate of the difficulty was still slightly low. After the game started, the entire process deviated slightly from his imagination.
