Reborn Almighty Life

In January 2003, China in the northern hemisphere has entered the coldest season of the year, and every household is already preparing for the upcoming Spring Festival.

For Chinese people, the Spring Festival is the beginning of a new year, and they have to go home to celebrate the New Year no matter what.

Thus, once a year, the world's largest population migration event begins, which is a spectacular event.

Compared with the increasingly strong festive atmosphere in China, Gu Fei's family only had tennis in their days in Melbourne.

The 2003 Australian Open will start at the same time as usual, officially starting on January 13, but the qualifying rounds will be held first.

As a qualifying player, Gu Fei needs to win three games in a row in the qualifying round and win one of the 16 tickets for the main draw before he can appear in the main draw.

In history, no Chinese men's singles player has ever entered the main draw of the four Grand Slams. Gu Fei's appearance at the qualifying round was quite surprising.

You must know that the competition for qualifications for the four Grand Slam qualifying tournaments is also very fierce. Most of the 128 participating players are players before the TOP250, plus some famous players whose rankings have dropped due to injuries. Generally speaking, those who are after the top 300 in the ATP rankings

It is difficult for players to qualify for the qualifying rounds.

Before the start of the Australian Open qualifying tournament, Gu Fei's real-time ATP score was 120 points, ranking 416th, which was far from the invitation standard of the Australian Open Organizing Committee.

However, Gu Fei has a good coach. Becker, who has won the Australian Open twice, has a wide network of contacts. The Australian Open took the initiative to issue a wild card to Gu Fei for the qualifying rounds!

However, when Gu Fei participated in the first qualifying match, the Chinese reporters in the outfield did not notice the situation in the qualifying match. They were busy interviewing the Agassi couple who had just arrived in Melbourne.

Gu Fei's opponent is O'Neal from Australia. This player with the same name as the NBA is not familiar to Gu Fei, and he probably has not made a name for himself in professional tennis.

Gu Fei easily defeated his opponent 3 times 6:2 and won his first victory in a Grand Slam qualifying match. This was also the first time in his career that Gu Fei participated in a best-of-five-set match, and he was not disappointed.

Where to adapt, because winning is quick.

Nearly a thousand Australian spectators at the outfield booed Gu Fei's victory. In their view, this handsome Chinese man was simply a cold robot on the court!

Ignoring the boos on the court, Gu Fei shook hands with the referee, signed to confirm the score, and left the court with his golf bag on his back.

"Eh!" A Chinese girl walked towards him, carrying a golf bag and looking dejected. Many images flashed through Gu Fei's head.

"Zheng Jie!" Gu Fei shouted from a distance.

Gu Fei had a very deep impression on this Sichuan girl who made her Chinese voice heard in the four Grand Slams for the first time. Because when he was in college, it was when Zheng Jie made frequent appearances in the four Grand Slams.

The city's business card has a very high reputation in Chengdu.

It can be said that before the rise of Sister Na, Zheng Jie was the eldest sister of Huaxia Golden Flower!

However, this ‘big sister’ now is not the Sichuan girl who will be very resilient in the future, she is just a little girl who lost in the qualifying round!

"Hello! Who are you?" Zheng Jie's eyes were blank, and the coach next to her, Chen Yuwen, was also curious.

"My name is Gu Fei, and I came from western Guangxi to participate in the qualifying competition!" When he saw a Sichuanese, Gu Fei couldn't help but speak in Sichuan dialect: "I won the competition, what about you?"

Both Chen Yuwen and Zheng Jie were quite surprised, because no one expected to meet a golfer who could speak Sichuan dialect at Melbourne Park. He even won the first round of qualifying after listening to his words.

As soon as Gu Fei finished speaking, he wanted to slap himself in the mouth. In his memory, Zheng Jie participated in the Australian Open for the first time this year. She returned home in the first round of the qualifying round. The look on her face just now was dejected. It was obvious that she had just

Come out after losing the game.

"I lose! I can't win!" Zheng Jie shook her head and said, "We are flying back to China this afternoon. I hope you can continue!"

Zheng Jie entered the top 200 in the WTA rankings this year and qualified for the Australian Open qualifying tournament. Unfortunately, she only made it to the first round.

The cost of traveling abroad was too great, so Zheng Jie and coach Chen Yuwen had no choice but to return to China as soon as possible, continue winter training, and wait until after the Spring Festival to compete again.

"I'd like to lend you some good advice!" Gu Fei tore off a note and wrote his phone number on it, handed it to Zheng Jie, and said, "I usually train at the Binhai Xinzhuang base. Come and have a look when you have time!"

Gu Fei had a good impression of this Sichuan girl who was only three days younger than him. In his previous life, it was because of her and many Jinhua's efforts that Chinese women's tennis had a place in the international tennis world.

Gu Fei communicated with coach Zheng Jie and Chen Yuwen for a while, but they had to say goodbye because they had to catch a flight.

Before leaving, Coach Chen told several media friends about Gu Fei's breakthrough to the first round of qualifying. The media, including Sina Sports, were shocked to realize that there was a Chinese player on the Australian Open men's singles field, and he had already

Got a victory.

In the past two years, the Internet winter has just passed. In order to compete for users, the three major portal websites in China have tried every means to increase content provision. This year's Australian Open is also the beginning of the three major portal websites' comprehensive coverage of the sports event.

Previously, portals and major domestic media had focused on the No. 1 seed, Australian Hare Hewitt, the golden boy combination of Andre Agassi and Graf, as well as Davenport, Serena Williams and other famous players.

When information about Chinese players appeared in the men's and women's singles qualifying matches, these reporters didn't notice it at all.

Now with Chen Yuwen's reminder, domestic reporters responded quickly and immediately obtained Gu Fei's participation information, competition photos, etc. through the organizing committee. Soon the three major portals showed that Gu Fei had qualified for the Australian Open.

The first round of the competition, news that made history.

In addition, Gu Fei’s consecutive winning experiences in Binhai Hope Tournament, Xiangjiang Tour and XN Challenge were also discovered by media reporters with sensitive sense of smell.

For a time, titles like 'China's Golden Boy' were applied to Gu Fei for free, after all, his coach was the famous 'Germany's Golden Boy'.

China's sports news program also included such a piece of news, "Chinese young player Gu Fei won the first round of the Australian Open qualifying tournament and became the first Chinese male player to break into the second round of qualifying."

For a time, Gu Fei truly became famous among domestic tennis fans. Gu Fei appeared in front of the people of the country for the first time by accident.

Gu Fei didn't care about the media attention.

Under Becker's words and deeds, Gu Fei learned to treat media reporters with a normal attitude. After all, the media's ability to adapt to the situation is not something ordinary people can learn.

It is still the stadium, the hotel is connected to the two points, and the interview requests from Chinese reporters have been rejected. Preparing for the game is now the top priority.

The next day, Gu Fei came to the No. 4 venue of the competition to participate in the second round of the qualifying round. He saw several reporters wearing vests with the logos of various media companies on the sidelines, which made him feel very friendly.

Today, it is finally time to show our strength to the people of the country!
