Chapter 577

history! history! history!

In fact, history has been written since the moment when Gao Wen turned out to reach the top of the US Open and ranked among the top 20 in the world with championship points:

To put it simply, Gao Wen is not only the first male player in China's history to rank among the top 100 in the world, but also reached the top 20 in one go. This also means that every step of Gao Wen's next step will inevitably create In history, he is the pioneer who opened up a new era.

Eyes, as long as you follow Gao Wen, you can witness history all the time.

Facts, everyone knows, but at the moment when history is actually written, it is still difficult to restrain one's excitement and excitement, and then repeat the "record" over and over again like a fool, participate in it in this way, and become a witness of history , as if it has become a part of history.

as if at this moment—

Gao Wen became the first Chinese male player to be seeded in the Masters; even looking at the whole of Asia and Asians, he is also one of the fourth players, leaving another mark on the milestone of writing history. The glorious journey has just begun, and you should not miss:

It is precisely because of this that the social network is boiling again, because of the excitement of witnessing history at close range, and because of the excitement of experiencing history personally, all the bustling eyes are all focused on the Shanghai Masters, detonating a frenzy of grabbing tickets , rushed directly to the hot search list.

Then, the historical moment appeared again, and the Shanghai Masters sold out the tickets for the first time ever!

In China, the most popular competitive sports are still football and basketball, etc. After all, the mass base of tennis is still weak. After ten years of promotion and publicity, it is still in the stage of continuous climbing. Naturally, the performance of the box office market is also slightly inferior.

Even for the star-studded Shanghai Masters, the attendance rate has never exceeded 60% so far, so the attendance rate of the Imperial City Open last week in Gaowen has exceeded 50%, which is already a very gratifying box office statistic. Demonstrate Gao Wen's hot appeal at the moment.

Coming to Shanghai, the attendance rate went even further. Thanks to the historical moment when Gao Wen was ranked as the seed for the first time, the major news media made a lot of publicity, and then the moment to witness history came. Gao Wen's first round competition All the tickets were sold out, marking the first time for the Shanghai Masters.

Sure enough, the box office still needs to rely on stars!

The most dumbfounding thing is that the box office sales exploded so suddenly and fiercely that the scalpers didn’t even have time to collect the tickets, and only after all the tickets were sold out did they belatedly realize Gao Wen’s appeal , beat his chest and missed an opportunity.

Therefore, scalpers have to start thinking about a serious question:

Should now be the time to start stocking up on tickets for the second round of Kovan?

This is not the first time scalpers have done business in the Shanghai Masters, but the problem is that the tennis market is really lacking in cultivation. Even top superstars like Federer and Nadal always have more than enough tickets for their matches; Cold elimination, the tickets hoarded by the scalpers will be smashed in their hands, and they will not be able to send them out.

So, what now?

"To be, or not to be, that is the question."

For scalpers, what they are facing now is such a difficult choice.

However, the people who eat melons do not have such troubles. Their psychology of buying tickets is not so much that they really like tennis, but rather that they support their fellow young players. They look forward to being a witness to history and looking forward to more miracles that Gao Wen can create. , looking forward to being able to keep up with the trend of the times.

That's all.

So, the first round of singles tickets sold out?

It doesn't matter, have you forgotten that there are doubles tickets!

Moreover, the ticket price for doubles matches is much lower than that for singles matches. For passers-by who don’t know much about tennis and just want to watch Gao Wen up close, the doubles tickets are much more economical and inexpensive. Then, Gao Wen Tickets for the first round of doubles competition ushered in another round of panic buying.

By the time the scalpers reacted, the rush to buy had calmed down. Although the tickets for the doubles match were not sold out, the enthusiastic audience had basically sold out, and the remaining tickets were gone. There was too much market, and the scalpers beat their chests and wailed I missed 100 million.

Outside the arena, there was a lot of hustle and bustle, and this "Gao Wen craze" continued to rise.

On the field, Gao Wen didn't realize it, completely cut off all the hustle and bustle outside the field, and focused on the training field wholeheartedly. From recovery training to physical training to basic training, all training focused on the body, without strength or technique. , Simple training keeps people focused.

It's like returning to the time when I just started learning tennis.

When I was young, I always had a kind of urgency and desire. I wanted to run even when I was still walking. I hated the boring basic training all day long. The idea of ​​going on the court to start a confrontation.

After growing up, I re-examined the repeated basic training, only to find that this is the foundation of everything, the simplest but most important, the simplest and most relaxing link, and then I slowly regained the fun of basic training, indulged in it, and my mentality also changed. Follow along with ease.

Especially after experiencing great ups and downs, strong winds and waves, the basic training has awakened the original intention, and the boring training has become interesting.

Of course, Lu Qian is not alone.

In addition to batting partner and doubles partner Tim, Raonic and Dimitrov also joined the ranks of daily training. Several young people gathered together for group training to relax their tense mood a little. Let the training jump out of the repetition as much as possible, which also adds a lot of fun to the training.

Just two days~lightnovelpub.net~ is not enough for Gao Wen to return to the track and get back to the state immediately, but getting rid of distracting thoughts and focusing on training does make impetuousness and anxiety settle down, and he returns to his familiar daily routine Among them, life has become regular again, which is also very important for professional players.

In a blink of an eye, game day arrived.

For similar reasons, like Gao Wen, there are quite a few players signing up for singles and doubles. In addition to Gao Wen's first-round opponent L-Mayer at the Imperial Capital Open last week, Cilic, Agut, and Filipino can also be seen. Liciano - Lopez and others, so the schedule is a test.

The organizers have also spent a lot of thought. After careful consideration, Dimitrov played against Istomin of Uzbekistan as the opening match for the singles match; for the doubles match, the combination of Gao Wen and Tim took the lead. The new generation of popular players joined hands to detonate the focus of attention on the first match day.

When Gawain and Tim were about to go on stage in the player tunnel of the No. 2 court, Tim was stunned when he saw the tip of the iceberg of the audience inadvertently:

"Are we sure we didn't go to the wrong course?"

The third update.
