Chapter 311 Here Comes the Live Broadcast
"Congratulations! Congratulations to Wang Qiang! In this way, our young player Wang Qiang defeated his opponent and advanced to the second round. The final two sets were '6:2' and '6:0'. His performance was very good."

There was thunderous applause. Both Zhan Jun and Hu Litao were a little excited. On the one hand, it was because Wang Qiang successfully advanced, and on the other hand, because the neat score allowed the game to end as soon as possible. This is undoubtedly a win-win situation.

"Next, let's switch the signal back to Arthur Ashe Stadium."

Hu Litao said calmly, but he could feel his joy and excitement by moving his sitting position a little in the live broadcast room——

Today is the second day of the Grand Slam tournament. They did not directly enter the live broadcast seats above the Arthur Ashe Stadium, but broadcast the game live in the official media center of the US Open, so that they can freely switch between different signals, panorama Showcasing every aspect of the Grand Slam.

The only regret is that I couldn't feel the atmosphere at the scene.

Then, the international signal cut in, and they saw the situation on the field like tens of thousands of spectators all over the world. When the signal was cut in, it was the interval between innings. A sense of reality came to my face——

History really happened.

Zhan Jun and Hu Litao exchanged glances in a hurry, and then they could find the joy and excitement in each other's eyes, and they had already entered the state without adjustment.

"Friends of the audience, friends of the audience, good evening."

In the domestic time zone, it is already one o'clock in the morning.

"What we are broadcasting live for you now is a matchup in the first round of the 2014 US Open. The young player from my country, Gao Wen, challenged the NO.13 seed, John Isner from the United States."

"Gao Wen is currently studying at the University of California, Los Angeles. After winning the NCAA National Championship this year, he got a wild card, which allowed him to appear in the Grand Slam for the first time. In fact, this is the first time that Gao Wen has stood in the professional On the field above the level of the Challenger League."

"However, his first official game has already made history, becoming the first Chinese male player ever to stand on the center court of the Four Grand Slams."

buzzing.

buzzing.

Zhan Jun is in charge of introducing the background of the whole story, and he can't help but feel excited when he talks.

At the same time, Gu Xiao, who was waiting hard in front of the TV, has gone crazy.

When typing on the computer keyboard with both hands, the fingertips were trembling uncontrollably.

"CCTV broadcast Gao Wen's game, sure enough!"

Ever since Gao Wen became the national champion, Gu Xiao, Qiao Wangsheng, Jiang Yanqing and others in the post bar have been chattering excitedly and paying attention to Gao Wen's North American season all the way.

Although the level of the Challenger League is still too low after all, there are gradually more and more posts discussing Gao Wen in the post bar - they even know more clearly than the official that Gao Wen made history and became the champion of the Challenger League, and a small team appeared, Began to carry Gao Wen's news diligently.

Then, step by step, a group of Gawain fans gathered in twos and threes across the country.

It's a pity that there is almost no international broadcast signal for the Challenger League, and fans have no choice but to watch Gao Wen's game, so all expectations are gathered towards the US Open——

They are about to witness the world-renowned Grand Slam!
After the "Gao Wen VS Isner" match came out, Qiao Wangsheng asserted that Gao Wen had the opportunity to enter the three major stadiums, and maybe even the center court. Naturally, the possibility of CCTV's live broadcast was increasing.

Even Qiao Wangsheng was so excited that he couldn't contain himself, because he was finally going to watch Gao Wen's game for the first time.

"International signals, friends, just need to find a platform for international signals."

Amongst the hustle and bustle of posts asking for live broadcast links, Gu Xiao quickly posted a post, calling on more fans to join them.

Immediately afterwards, Qiao Wangsheng updated a post.

"Five sets, the signal has just come in, Wang Qiang's game is over."

Gurgling.

Gurgling.

Some people strongly doubt that after Li Na's absence from the U.S. Open, it is really unexpected that any player can get the treatment on the center court in the first round.

Some people didn't know why, and thought it was just an ordinary game like Zhang Shuai or Wang Qiang, and didn't pay much attention to it.

Some people turned the channel inadvertently, stopped when they saw tennis balls, and made a surprised voice, "It's actually a five-star red flag? I don't seem to recognize it."

But thinking about it seriously, it seems that Huaxia men's tennis players don't have any impression at all, and there is no difference if another one pops up at this time.

With the rustling of the ground, CCTV can see that the ratings are slowly rising at a speed visible to the naked eye, and more and more eyes are focused on the Arthur Ashe Stadium. Even in the early hours of the morning, you can still see the vitality.

"...In the latest world ranking, Gao Wen is temporarily ranked 193, while Isner is 15. For Gao Wen, this is a competition that must go all out."

"Currently, the two players are still maintaining a balance of power, each retaining their serve. Gao Wen, who served first, leads '3:2'."

"Next is Isner's serve."

"On the field, it's Isner in the white jersey, and Gawain in the dark blue, oh, Gawain is wearing the UCLA school uniform, which is obviously a unique choice. .”

Although there is no sponsorship, players can freely choose jerseys. Nike and Adidas are still the two leaders in the global market. However, there are also a small number of players who deliberately wear jerseys without any brand logos in order to seek sponsorship. The subtext is to wait for brands to sponsor .

When the female player Halep participated in the Australian Open in 2018, she did not have a jersey sponsor. She still found a Taobao store through the introduction of Huaxia players, designed and ordered the jersey herself, and wore this jersey to participate in the Australian Open. into the final.

It was not until Nike and Halep signed a cooperation agreement that Halep's plight of no sponsorship ended.

Tobias obviously thought the same way, he didn't want Gawain to wear any jersey with branded labels, so Gawain chose the school team uniform, he was used to it anyway.

Unintentionally, this turned out to be a beautiful sight. When Gao Wen stepped onto the field again, someone in the spectator stands was waving his right hand vigorously and shouting loudly.

"Go, Brown Bear! Go!"

The shouts reverberated in the stadium, causing good-natured laughter, and even Isner laughed—

Isner is from the University of Georgia. Although he has graduated for many years, he still feels very friendly when he meets alumni occasionally. At this time, seeing Gao Wen appearing on the stage in the uniform of the university team, he can't help remembering it.

Gao Wen was also very generous, pointing to the "UCLA" logo on his left chest, and motioned in the direction of the source of the sound, immediately eliciting a lively "boo hoo hoo" sound, and the atmosphere of the game was a little more relaxed.

But the laughter was short-lived. Turning around, the two players had already reached the bottom line, ready to enter the seventh game of the first set.
