Chapter 500 Sorry to stop, Olympic bronze medal

Two days later, Ma Dongmei faced Amelie Mauresmo in the women's singles semi-final of the Olympic tennis.

Facing this old opponent and the former defeated opponent, Ma Dongmei has a great advantage in mentality, and after the headwind against Ai Sugiyama, her spirit and game experience have been greatly improved.

Ma Dongmei, who has transformed from a bottom-line player to a comprehensive player, meets Mauresmo, a comprehensive player. She plans to continue the matchup with the way she defeated her opponent last time.

Mauresmo's strength should not be underestimated. So far, she is ranked second in the WTA world, only a few points behind Serena Williams.

Serena Williams has already been eliminated in the third round of the Olympic Games, and Mauresmo, who has successfully entered the semi-finals, has already completed the overtake in terms of points regardless of whether he can reach the final. After the Olympic Games, he will definitely reach the top No. [-] in the WTA world.

And so far this year, as the female player with the most singles wins, she has also proved her strength and good condition.

At the beginning of the game, Mauresmo gave Ma Dongmei a big blow!

Not only did she steadily win her serve in two consecutive rounds, but she also successfully broke serve in two consecutive rounds. A wave of 4-0 crushing made Ma Dongmei and everyone else see her fiery state.

Ma Dongmei was also very helpless when she was beaten, she played well, but the opponent played better than herself!
I have the psychological advantage of winning the opponent before, but the opponent also has strong self-confidence based on strength and state.

When the status is the same, what the players compete for is personal strength and on-the-spot performance.

And Ma Dongmei also found that the opponent seems to have overcome the previous frizzy and aggressive personality. While retaining a very aggressive style of play, it also stabilized the defense and no longer pursued a half-ball attack. It became more difficult to deal with. .

I am making progress, and my opponent is not standing still.

6-1, the first set ended completely after Ma Dongmei pulled back a round.

The first set only lasted 7 rounds, and it took 10 minutes. Taking into account the time wasted by switching venues, the average round was less than 4 minutes. Although it was a medium game, for Ma Dongmei's competition, almost one round was the least He also needs to play seven to eight minutes. In the match against Ai Sugiyama, each game in the second half took even more than 8 minutes.

Such a short game time can only show that Ma Dongmei and the opponent are relatively weaker. Unfortunately, today the weaker side is Ma Dongmei.

In the second set, after discussing with the coaching staff, Ma Dongmei decided to continue to use the method of slowing down the pace of the game, waiting for the opponent to make a mistake and find a way to score.

However, this style of play is relatively passive, and it is easy to be suppressed and affected when meeting a master. If the opponent makes no mistakes, and you can only passively follow the rhythm of the opponent, it is difficult to win the game.

This is also the reason why Ma Dongmei has never reached the final of any event. Her active offensive ability is too weak to create scoring opportunities by herself, so she needs to change and become an all-around player.

Although Ma Dongmei tried her best, she couldn't prevent Mauresmo from winning the second set, and the score was fixed at 8-6.

This time, no miracles.

Losing the game, not only Ma Dongmei felt frustrated and lost, but the commentator, the audience and the audience in front of the TV all felt very regretful!
"Although Ma Dongmei failed to defeat her opponent and unfortunately stopped in the semi-finals of the Olympic tennis women's singles, her indomitable fighting spirit along the way is still worthy of our encouragement and pride. After the women's doubles broke through historic results, the women's singles also broke through. Historic achievement!"

"I believe that after four years, the 28-year-old Ma Dongmei, who is at the peak of her career, will definitely bring you more exciting games and better results in the Beijing Olympic Games!"

"Tomorrow, there will be a bronze medal competition. The opponent Ma Dongmei will challenge is Myskina from Russia. You are welcome to watch on time. Then today's game will be explained here for everyone, and the camera will follow the special reporter. Interview Ma Dongmei."

In the stands, Charlotte turned to Zhang Jin and Qiu Ya and said, "Let's go, the competition is over, so there's no point in keeping it. Let's see if Ma Dongmei can win a medal for our country."

"Well, we can't get in touch with Dongmei anyway, so let's go back first and come back tomorrow."

The next day, at the same venue and at the same time, the bronze medal battle officially started.

This time, facing the player from Russia, Ma Dongmei was at a disadvantage in terms of strength and physical fitness, and because of the huge consumption against Mauresmo the day before, the whole game was extremely thrilling, and the strength of both sides was evenly matched.

However, because Myskina played three sets against Haining, and each set consisted of more than eleven innings, her physical consumption was greater than that of Ma Dongmei.

最终，马冬梅三盘比分为7-5、6-4、6-2，以微弱的优势拿下了对手。

"Congratulations, Chinese player Ma Dongmei, won the bronze medal in the women's tennis singles at the Athens Olympic Games, creating a new historical achievement for our country in the Olympic Games! The athletes of our national tennis team, under the circumstances that everyone is not optimistic about, overcame obstacles and marched forward bravely , has achieved impressive and brilliant achievements!"

"This is inseparable from the hard work of the athletes, this cannot be separated from the professional guidance of the coaches, and this cannot be separated from the leadership..."

The game is over, and the Chinese audience in the stands are full of excitement!
"Let's go, the competition is finally over, let's go meet Dongmei together." Qiu Ya suggested after finishing her excitement.

"Let's go, brother, it's rare that one of our old classmates has an Olympic medalist, no matter what, we have to be happy!"

"Of course I have to go. I have half the credit for Ma Dongmei getting this medal! But now is not the time, there are too many reporters, and my identity is more sensitive. If it is exposed to the reporters and there is another scandal, my image will not be good. Has it all collapsed!" said Charlotte.

"It's not that serious. Ma Dongmei is also an Olympic bronze medalist after all, and she also created a national tennis Olympic singles record. This status is no worse than you, a singer star. You are on equal footing, and as an old classmate, you can still hype it. Not only is there no harm, It can also gain a lot of popularity." Zhang Jin said.

"Really?" Charlotte was dubious.

"Of course it is true. The reputation of an Olympic medalist in society is definitely more respected than you, a singer and star. Especially in the eyes of the older generation, an Olympic medalist is much better than a singer. If you can talk to Ma Dongmei Building a good relationship can attract middle-aged and elderly audiences to become fans more than going to the Spring Festival Gala." Zhang Jin said.

Charlotte thought for a while, nodded and said: "What you said seems to make sense. My mother often said that although I am a big star, few neighbors really care about it. What they care about is that I make a lot of money. His high-level status is not as good as that of the civil servant who was admitted by Wang Erdan, the daughter of Uncle Wang’s family next door, and my mother was so depressed that she didn’t sleep well for several nights.”

At this time, Zhang Yang suddenly said: "Hey, the reporter over there seems to have finished the interview, brother, let's take this opportunity to hurry over, Dongmei will be leaving sooner or later!"

"Go, go, hurry over!" Charlotte hurriedly urged, and took the lead to walk over there.

After Ma Dongmei was interviewed by the reporter, the national team leader came over to her and said, "Little Ma, congratulations on winning the third place. You not only won a medal for the country, but also won honor for yourself."

"Thank you, Team Leader Hu!" Ma Dongmei said, "It's a pity that I didn't make it to the final. Originally, this medal should have been a silver or gold medal. It's all because I didn't work hard enough."

"Don't say such things. It will not be good to be heard by foreign media reporters. You are also participating in the Olympics for the first time. People will not criticize you too much. With this experience, you will continue to work hard when you go back and strive for the next time. Bring back a gold medal!"

"Okay, Team Leader Hu, I will definitely work harder."

"By the way, the reporter from CCTV greeted me and wanted to do an exclusive post-match interview for you. I'll start after I get back to the hotel. Is there any problem with you? Are you tired? Do you want to take a break and accept the interview? "

"No problem. I'm tired, but I'm used to it. Since CCTV reporters are here for an exclusive interview, don't keep them waiting."

"That's great. I'm going to reply to the CCTV reporter right now. Xiaoma, you guys go back to the hotel first." Team Leader Hu finished speaking, took out his phone and walked to the side.

When Ma Dongmei and the coaching staff walked out of the tennis court, Zhang Jin and others just rushed over from the side.

"Dongmei, Dongmei! Look here!" Qiuya smiled and waved.

Ma Dongmei turned her head and saw the four of them, she was slightly taken aback: "Qiu Ya, Zhang Jin, Zhang Yang...Charlotte? Why are you here too?"

"Why, can't I come? Don't forget that if I didn't draw..." Charlotte was interrupted before she could finish speaking.

An accompanying staff member looked at him in surprise and shouted, "Charlotte! You are really Charlotte! Superstar Charlotte!"

After being called out by the other party, not only the National Nets team, but also some domestic audiences around who hadn't left yet spotted Charlotte.

"I didn't expect to meet Charlotte here!"

"Great, Charlotte, can you give me an autograph, I like your songs very much, I'm your fan!"

"Who is this Charlotte? Which star?"

"No way, brother, are you pretending to be stupid or do you really not use the Internet or watch TV? Charlotte, a big singer, has been to the Spring Festival Gala several times and sang many well-known pop songs. In recent years, the most popular singer star in the three places across the Taiwan Strait , you don't know?"

"I don't know, isn't it strange? I only listen to Liu Tianwang and Zhang Tianwang's songs. The old songs are more enjoyable and charming. The current popular songs are all rubbish!"

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you, it's no wonder you can't find a girlfriend when you're single!"

Zhang Jin and Qiu Ya were quickly pushed aside by the fans. Zhang Yang quickly spread his arms to protect them, and shouted: "Don't squeeze, everyone, don't squeeze, those who want to sign are lined up, come one by one, there is a chance Brother, tell me something, without bodyguards, I really can't stop these enthusiastic fans by myself!"

With a smile on her face, Charlotte said to her fans: "I understand everyone's feelings, I can feel your enthusiasm, and thank you for your love! I am also very happy to meet you in this foreign country. Meeting is fate, autographs and group photos are fine, please come one by one, okay, don’t let foreigners underestimate our quality.”

As soon as he spoke, the scene became much quieter and more stable.

At this time, it is still useful for celebrities to speak, unlike the later fan circles, where celebrities belong to celebrities, fans control fans' actions, it is easy to cut and cut, and fans' behaviors should not be promoted to idols.

Seeing this posture, the team of the National Nets team left first with the others. They will be interviewed later, so there is no delay in time.

Ma Dongmei only chatted with Zhang Jin and Qiu Ya for a while, and then went back to the hotel with the National Nets team.

Charlotte, who was surrounded by fans, naturally also saw Ma Dongmei's departure, but he had no choice but to continue to sign autographs and take photos with fans with a smile on his face.

Fortunately, there were not many fans at the scene. After dealing with more than a dozen people, Charlotte was finally able to escape.

"Charlotte, Ma Dongmei has left." Zhang Jin said.

"I saw it, she ran quite fast, but no matter where she ran, I got half of the credit for the medal!" Charlotte put on her hat and sunglasses again, so as not to be recognized again later, "Ma Dongmei didn't say anything Time to meet and have a meal and chat?"

"I asked. She has finished the competition now and has her own free time. Anyway, there are still seven or eight days before the end of the Olympic Games, and there is plenty of time to get together." Qiu Ya said.

Charlotte looked at the two and asked, "Are you planning to stay until the end of the Olympics?"

"Yes, we came here to watch the Olympics. Why, didn't you come to watch the Olympics?" Qiuya said.

Zhang Jin teased: "He came to see the Olympics, he just came to see Ma Dongmei!"

"Don't talk nonsense, of course I came to see the Olympics, and Ma Dongmei just stopped by to see it." Charlotte quickly retorted.

Qiu Ya smiled and said, "No matter what, Dongmei should be able to make an appointment tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Charlotte, if you are not in a hurry to go back to China, it's just in time for some of our old classmates to visit Athens together."

Zhang Jin echoed, "That's a good idea. I'll make a phone call and call Yuan Hua. A group of old classmates haven't had a party for many years. Let's take advantage of the Olympics to get together."

"I think it's okay! You can contact all the old classmates who can be contacted. As long as he can come, I will cover all the food, lodging and travel expenses. It will be regarded as compensation for not having time to hold class reunions for so many years!" Charlotte waved his hand. , the tone is very bold.

"That's right, bro, shall we go back to the hotel and make a phone call?" Zhang Yang asked eagerly.

"No hurry, let's go eat first." After Charlotte finished speaking, she quickly added, "I'm going to eat pasta and pizza today."

Qiu Ya tentatively said, "Why don't I recommend another pasta and pizza restaurant today?"

When Charlotte and Zhang Yang heard the words, their faces changed drastically, and they quickly refused.

They don't want to have another encounter like yesterday, the smell of dirty rags is enough!

Zhang Jin and Qiu Ya looked at each other and smiled. It seemed that what happened yesterday left a deep impression on Charlotte.
