Reborn Almighty Life

After the second round of the US Open, only Gu Fei was left as a single Chinese men's player. Even the men's doubles team was completely wiped out, which looked a little desolate.

The Chinese media are also lamenting that the Chinese sports world is in a state of ups and downs, and even tennis cannot escape this fate.

Even though the three biggest superstars in Chinese sports are all male athletes, in the entire Chinese sports world, the performance of women's events is much better than that of men's events, especially in the Olympic Games.

Since the Chinese Sports Delegation returned to the modern Olympic Games in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, women's athletes have won a total of 97 gold medals (including mixed doubles), while men's athletes have only won 61 gold medals (including mixed doubles). The ratio between the two sides is almost

It’s a disparity ratio of 5:3!

In addition to outperforming men in the Olympic Games, China's female athletes also lead the Chinese men's basketball team in the three major sports of football, tennis and volleyball. In China, the saying that women can hold up half the sky is not just talk.

Although Gu Fei is invincible in the world of tennis, there are a lot of outstanding female tennis players emerging in China in recent years. Needless to say, Zheng Jie has achieved more brilliant achievements than in her previous life, and Li Na, Zhang Shuai and others are growing at a faster rate.

Faster than in previous lives.

Just when Gu Fei was the only one left to fight on the men's side, four Chinese women's players broke into the top 32 of the US Open women's singles competition and became a force that cannot be ignored in the women's tennis world.

Zheng Jie's opponent in the third round was Makarova from the Russian Girls Corps. The defending champion, who was the first to appear, easily defeated her opponent with a score of 6:0/6:2 in one hour and fifteen minutes and successfully advanced to the top 16.

Throughout the game, the Russian had no chance, which was in sharp contrast to her victory over Japanese player Ai Sugiyama in the second round.

In the past two years, Zheng Jie's progress has been very obvious. Her skills have become a shadow of those of Graf in the past, and her tenacious will and unremitting running have given her the ability to persevere to the end when facing any opponent.

confidence.

Many players have a headache when facing Zheng Jie, because once they are unable to kill Zheng Jie in the first three shots and the game enters a stalemate, the balance of the game will gradually tilt towards Zheng Jie.

This is the case for Makarova in this game. If her three-point ax is unable to defeat Zheng Jie, Zheng Jie will slowly eat away at her advantage and eventually give up the victory!

The victorious Zheng Jie also raised her hands high to celebrate her 31st consecutive victory in the Grand Slam event. She has only 4 games left before her annual Grand Slam!

Graf was smiling in the stands. After all, he had trained an outstanding disciple, which is something to be proud of for any retired tennis star.

Generally speaking, there are many jobs that athletes can engage in after retirement. Working in politics, business, or becoming an entertainment star can make the superstars live a very comfortable life. However, for the vast majority of athletes, the most common occupation after retirement is

Coaches, after all, this is the field they are most familiar with.

As the queen of tennis, Graf married the tennis king Andre Agassi after her retirement. The topic continued, and even if she was not in the world, the popularity was still very high.

According to rough estimates by the media, Graf's annual income will not be less than US$2 million even after she retires, and the huge net worth she has earned can bring her huge increases in value every year.

Therefore, after retiring, Graf will not worry about livelihood. From time to time, she and her husband Agassi show off their love in front of the media, accept media interviews, and participate in various activities, which is enough to live a life that the world's top rich man can enjoy.

everything.

However, since accepting the invitation of his old friend Becker to serve as Zheng Jie's coach at the Gu Fei Tennis School in China three years ago, Graf suddenly discovered that Zheng Jie is a girl full of talent.

In this way, Graf has single-handedly brought Zheng Jie from an ordinary tennis player to the queen she is today. Needless to say, Graf feels proud in her heart.

…………

Zheng Jie performed perfectly in the game, and Li Na in the second half was not far behind. She swept all the opponents in front of her three times 2:0 and successfully advanced to the top 16, echoing Zheng Jie.

Compared with Zheng Jie's defensive and counterattack style, Li Na's technical characteristics are more radical, her playing style is wild, and her sharp serve and net look particularly good on hard courts.

Although Zheng Jie's record is better than Li Na's, Li Na's popularity and attention in China are not weak due to her playing style and fiery personality, and she is favored by advertising sponsors.

This time, she easily broke into the top 16 of the US Open women's singles. Chinese sports media also have high hopes for Li Na, believing that she has the opportunity to break Zheng Jie's monopoly on Grand Slam championships.

…………

Yan Zi used to be Zheng Jie's doubles partner. She and Zheng Jie had the last laugh at the 2004 Athens Olympics, winning China's first gold medal in tennis.

In that summer, although the brilliance of Liu Yuyang, Gu Fei and the women's volleyball team somewhat eclipsed Zheng Jieyanzi's gold medal, their starting point in the tennis world was not low.

It's a pity that since 2005, Zheng Jie seemed to have a new idea in singles, her performance improved by leaps and bounds, and she gradually couldn't care about doubles competition.

Yan Zi gradually shifted her energy to singles competition, but her talent was average and she had never achieved better results in the past few years. The French Open quarterfinals became her ceiling.

This time, after two rounds of hard battle, Yan Zi broke into the top 32 of the US Open women's singles, but her opponent in the third round was Serena Williams, and she lost 0:2 cleanly.

The defeat of Huaxia Jinhua made the Chinese media and fans lament collectively, but no one was too surprised. After all, winning generals are rare on the field, and not every Chinese athlete can be an undefeated king. In addition, Yan Zi’s opponent Xiao

Williams has been in good form recently. She won two WTA Tour championships in the North American hard court season, gradually regaining her strength as one of the top tennis players in the past few years. Yan Zi's defeat is also reasonable.

The Chinese media is naturally very wary of Serena Williams, because after she breaks out of her quarter, she will compete with the winner of Li Na's quarter for a spot in the finals, and it will be China Golden Flower.

's close enemy.

As Serena Williams recovers, everyone is sweating for Li Na and Zheng Jie!

…………

Yan Zi's defeat was reasonable, but Zhang Shuai's performance in this US Open sent the Chinese media and fans into a collective carnival.

In the past few years, Gu Fei and Zheng Jie have become one brother and one sister in the international tennis world. The two players can be said to have swept the tennis world and are invincible. Victory has become commonplace for the Chinese media and fans.

Therefore, whether Gu Fei casually set a record of 122 consecutive Grand Slam wins at the US Open or Zheng Jie successfully won her fifth consecutive Grand Slam trophy, they have been unable to arouse the enthusiasm of Chinese fans.

Because the fans have become a little numb to victory. It is not news that Gu Fei and Zheng Jie win, but losing is news.

On the other hand, after the young player Zhang Shuai won the women's singles championship in the US Open youth group, she made great progress in the adult group, winning three games in a row and successfully advancing to the top 16, which made the Chinese media collectively climax!

Compared with old faces such as Zheng Jie, the younger and more energetic Zhang Shuai clearly represents the future of Chinese women's tennis players, and her performance in this US Open is even more amazing, whether it is explosive serve, flexible

His movement and skillful skills in front of the net all give people a hint of Gu Fei.

In fact, 18-year-old Zhang Shuai entered the Gu Fei Tennis School as one of the first batch of students in the summer of 2004. He trained with Gu Fei for a lot of time, and his technical characteristics unknowingly adopted Gu Fei's style.

Gu Fei also knew that the masculine skills of female tennis players would be a feature of the future, so he consciously cultivated them. He never thought that Zhang Shuai's talent was quite good and that he would be able to master it in a few years.

Since Zhang Shuai participated as a wild card, the opponents she encountered in the US Open were not ordinary. However, this girl did not restrain herself because of the reputation of her opponents. On the contrary, she was full of firepower and performed extremely well.

In the first round, Zhang Shuai's opponent was Hantuchova, the No. 9 seed in the tournament. However, Zhang Shuai was not afraid of tigers as a newborn, and he broke Hantuchova's serve from the very beginning, which laid a good foundation for the whole game.

In the end, Zhang Shuai eliminated the No. 9 seed with a score of 2:0, breaking the first big upset of this US Open. More and more world-class media finally paid attention to this heroic Chinese girl!

In the second round, Zhang Shuai's performance was even better, because her opponent was an unseeded player, Kostanic from Croatia, whose strength was slightly worse than Hantuchova. It was still the familiar 2:0, Zhang Shuai even ranked second

Successfully deliver eggs to your opponent, and you will be awesome!

Zhang Shuai's opponent in the third round is Kirilenko from Russia. This female tennis player with the same name as the NBA star is one of the members of the Russian beautiful girl tennis corps that has emerged in recent years. In recent years, Russian women's tennis has developed rapidly.

, dozens of Russian female players, including Kournikova, Safina, and Sharapova, rank among the top 100 in the world all year round. Russia ranks first in terms of participation ratio in Grand Slam events!

Therefore, encountering Russian players in competitions is nothing more than normal.

After a fierce fight, Zhang Shuai still defeated his opponent with a score of 2:0. Although every set reached a tiebreaker, Zhang Shuai still had the last laugh.

Zhang Shuai's three consecutive victories made the Chinese media celebrate collectively, thinking that this was a victory for the 'Gu Fei Tennis School'. The more players from the Gu Fei Tennis School began to emerge in the international arena, it made both fans and capital realize that

Tennis schools are well-established.

In fact, economic interests are undoubtedly the most effective and intuitive driving force for any matter.

In recent years, because Gu Fei has driven the development of China's tennis industry, and the profits from events including Binhai Masters Cup, China Open and other events, more and more investment institutions and companies have paid attention to the tennis industry. And the rapid development of Gu Fei's tennis school

, the outstanding performance of online school students has also made tennis training schools spring up in China like bamboo shoots in the future, and more and more parents are willing to send their children to learn tennis.

Although the cost of learning tennis is high, it cannot support China's large population and the number of wealthy families. Once parents discover that learning tennis may bring greater benefits, the motivation to invest will be much greater.

For example, if Gu Fei, Zheng Jie and others win the four Grand Slam tournaments, they will receive million-dollar bonuses, and they can also earn huge income from filming commercials every year. How can they not make Chinese parents tempted?

Previously, Chinese audiences only saw some European and American tennis stars earning millions or even tens of millions of dollars a year, and they always felt that they were far away from them, so they had no idea of ​​letting their children learn tennis.

Nowadays, when Chinese compatriots become the top figures in the world tennis pyramid, the minds of the Chinese people are also alive.

The same principle is also extremely popular in the field of football. Gu Fei's great success at Manchester United has turned football players who were once a bit notorious in the country into a hot commodity. More and more Chinese parents are opposed to their children playing football.

The thought is no longer so strong.

Especially after the Riyue Island Football Base launched a nationwide fair selection campaign, more and more talented football teenagers saw hope, and the mass foundation of football suddenly became more solid.

When a sport becomes more popular, a virtuous cycle is formed, and industrial development naturally gets on the right track.

…………

The first three rounds of the US Open singles competition are over. Naturally, some are happy and some are worried. However, the media and fans are not interested in focusing on the losers. Everyone is discussing the upcoming quarter-finals. This

At that time, the US Open was getting better.

Many media outlets that had not participated in US Open coverage before have also sent reporters to New York. After all, the influence of the US Open is not limited to the tennis field.

Because of Gu Fei, whenever he participates in a competition, not only the sports media, but also the financial media, entertainment media and fashion circles are paying close attention, especially after Gu Fei has achieved brilliant results on both battlefields, 1

+1 is much greater than 2!

Recently, Anta Sports, endorsed by Gu Fei, has become a sudden leader in the American sporting goods market. The nearly 20 directly-operated stores in New York and other major cities are almost selling like crazy. Consumers are queuing up as soon as they open the door. The Chinese brand

It is quickly conquering American consumers with its high quality and low price.

Compared with the high prices of Nike and Adidas, Anta's prices are only a little more than half of those of its competitors, but there is not much difference in quality. Consumers will naturally choose to vote with their feet.

In addition, Gu Fei also played an important role in it. Today, Gu Fei has grown into an international superstar and has huge influence among teenagers.

The hot sales of ANTA Sports have also attracted great attention from the financial media. After all, after this battle, the brand value of ANTA Sports has skyrocketed in just a few days. Gu Fei's performance on the US Open is even more miraculous!
