Chapter 1078 Fan No. 1
Dimitrov: ???
After hesitating for a moment, he slowly, slowly moved his body to the left, his face appeared from behind Gawain's palm, his eyes widened, and he spread his hands.
No words.
But the point is that no words or explanations are needed. Just like a pantomime, body language is enough to convey the message, and the humorous effect is overwhelming.
Perhaps Dimitrov did not fully understand the situation, and his understanding of reporters was not as thorough as Gao Wen's, but this did not affect it.
Dimitrov still used the most authentic and direct reaction to present the purest and most essential thoughts in his heart. He used his mouth to quietly ask the reporter in front, "What are we doing now?"
Boom! The laughter became even louder.
How can the reporters continue to attack Dimitrov when they see him like this?
Dimitrov was confused, so he sat up straight again, leaned slightly towards Gawain, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"
Gawain was also amused by Dimitrov's expression. He lowered his voice and said seriously, "They suggested that I make a living by my face."
Dimitrov paused for a moment, then immediately reacted. The whole story became clear to him, and he finally understood what was going on.
Dimitrov felt warm in his heart and smiled faintly. He moved closer to Gawain, away from the microphone, and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"I don't mind."
"It's not the first time they say this about me. First they said I was a model player, then they said I was a gigolo who relied on Maria, and then they said I was a vase."
Behind the light words, there are invisible scars.
Dimitrov has been trying to prove himself on the court and has been trying to pursue perfection. In addition to his own reasons, there is also pressure from the outside world.
It is precisely because of this that every defeat hurts Dimitrov more deeply and seriously. Things are never that simple.
Gawain did not comfort Dimitrov, but replied in a low voice.
"They are jealous."
"But the problem is, what can jealousy do? Unless they are reborn, there is nothing they can do."
With just one sentence, Dimitrov burst out laughing.
In front of him, the reporters stretched their necks like groundhogs, crawling out of their holes one by one, casting concerned glances at him: " What are you talking about? Let's listen, too?" Gao Wen shifted his gaze, moved closer to the microphone, and smiled.
"I told Gregor that you were all jealous of him, just like me."
Be open and aboveboard and upright.
Gawain said it directly like this, with such a calm and generous attitude that he brought himself into the context, but he did not say "what are you jealous of", which seemed very meaningful.
Everyone has their own interpretation.
Some reporters averted their eyes guiltily, some showed contempt, and some simply turned a blind eye, but more reporters showed a tacit smile. The trivial rustling sounds surged in the air, relaxed and comfortable, and the whole atmosphere seemed different.
As they looked at each other in bewilderment, a reporter continued to ask questions.
"Gawain, I'm not sure if you've noticed, but this time in Indian Wells, there are a lot of fans who have come all the way here just for you, waiting for you."
"Among them, the most famous is LaWanda. Have you heard of her name?"
Questions about fans? Unusual.
Generally speaking, questions at a press conference are centered around the players, but now, it is somewhat surprising that the main subject of reporters' questions is the fans.
Interestingly, other reporters at the scene also nodded and smiled, and the light and harmonious atmosphere showed that they also agreed with this issue.
What’s even more interesting is that Gawain and Dimitrov, who were “only a step away from being disconnected from the Internet”, both showed clear expressions this time.
"Yes, I've heard of Lawanda. To be exact, we've heard her name in different places."
"Yeah, in the players' restaurant, the training ground, the hotel where they stay, wherever the players gather, I have heard her name more than once."
"Obviously, she's a focal point."
As he spoke, Dimitrov suddenly had an idea, turned his head and looked at Gao Wen, and said excitedly, "By the way, yesterday, when I met Andy in the locker room, he asked me if Lawanda and I took a photo together?"
Gao Wen's eyes widened, not hiding his surprise. The "Andy" here should be Murray. "It seems that we missed a lot of hot spots."
Heard, but only heard, Gao Wen never delved into who this "Lawanda" was, so he looked at the reporter.
Sure enough, the reporter dutifully provided popular science:
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Lawanda is an ordinary fan who lives in California. No one knows which city she lives in or her real age, but there is no doubt that she should be over 40 years old because this is the tenth consecutive year that she has come to Indian Wells to watch the game.
In the past two years, social networks have emerged like a tornado, sweeping the world and completely changing the lifestyle of the younger generation.
Lawanda also kept up with the times. With the help of her two daughters, she registered an account and started her new era of fan career.
Every year, Lawanda comes to Indian Wells to watch the tournament and occasionally goes to Miami.
In Indian Wells, I was online the whole time and watched every match on the center court; at the same time, I waited in the fan zone for a long time just to take pictures with the players.
On her personal social networking account, Lawanda updates her group photos every day; in addition, she also updates those group photos taken in the previous camera era. Each photo truly records the passage of time, and you can see the changes in the stadium and the generations of players.
Every little detail records the memories that Lawanda had in Indian Wells over the past decade, and it is also a mark of the times.
The story up to this point is actually just the record of a veteran tennis fan. It is not a big deal because there are more than one such stories.
Placed in the ocean of online information, it is just a drop of water in the vast ocean.
Not worth mentioning.
The point is that this year's Indian Wells sparked a lot of discussion on social networks, and the topic effect ignited by the "Knight Combination" was an obvious sign.
In this wave, Lawanda's personal account has also attracted a lot of attention, and the number of followers has shown a continuous upward trend, which also encouraged Lawanda.
Lawanda, became more active.
This enthusiastic, friendly and lovely lady has always been a master of connections. She can quickly become familiar with people after just one meeting. Now she is like a fish in water in Indian Wells. She can be seen everywhere. She can say the name of any player and have a good chat with them.
Taking photos and signing autographs came naturally.
In just one week, almost all the players participating in Indian Wells, including those in the qualifying rounds, knew about Lawanda.
“Did you take a picture with Ms. Lawanda?”
This seems to be becoming a new greeting.
