Chapter 1139 Who is lying
? Zverev dropped a bombshell at the post-match press conference, which immediately attracted all-round attention on social networks.
Meanwhile, Gawain's post-match press conference was a little late, and he appeared thirty minutes after Zverev's interview was finished.
There is no doubt that Gao Wen was asked relevant questions immediately, without even any transition. This was obviously much more exciting than a "6:0" or "6:2" game; even if the reporters had already made a judgment in their hearts, it still did not affect their confrontation with the parties involved and ignited more sparks.
"So, how did I do it?"
Gao Wen was not angry or furious, nor was he panicked or anxious. Instead, he smiled and looked at the reporter who was asking the question.
The reporter was slightly stunned and explained it again.
Then, Gao Wen stood up, walked back to the interview table from the entrance, pulled out the hem of his sports jacket, and pulled it down as far as possible, vividly reflecting the spirit of hip-hop.
Ha ha!
Just seeing Gao Wen's action, the reporters at the scene couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Then, Gawain imitated it vividly:
His knees seemed to have springs in them, and his body bounced up and down to the non-existent rhythm. He dragged his toes and swayed in a hip-hop spirit, and it looked like he was about to start rapping.
He shrugged his shoulders and finally came to the interview table. He raised his right hand, made a "love and peace" gesture, stuck out his tongue, and made a strange shout, "YA, Yaaaaaaaa..." The ending sound needed to be dragged out, very long.
Ha ha!
The whole audience burst into laughter.
Even without Gao Wen's response, the absurdity of the whole scene was already overflowing. The scene was really too funny.
Gao Wen sat down again and his voice came through the microphone.
"It would be a shame if that's all."
"If you really want to show off, you should do it right, full of swag, then rap on the spot, then do a cool floor move, support yourself with one hand on the ground, make a victory 'V' with your legs, and then end with a move like this, and then exit in style."
As he spoke, Gao Wen grabbed the microphone on the table, raised it slightly, and then released his palm.
Mic-Drop.
Indeed, full of attitude.
Ha ha!
The laughter could not be stopped at all, and some reporters even whistled and cheered together, making the press conference room very lively.
Just as Gao Wen said, either do nothing or do the whole thing. This half-hearted provocation poses no threat at all.
Although Gao Wen did not directly answer the question after it was asked, his attitude was clear and the reporters all knew the answer in their minds.
However, reporters should still ask for formal confirmation; relying solely on a joke is not formal enough.
"Gawain, so, you didn't do those things? Are you saying that all of Sasha's accusations are lies?"
"Yes."
This time, Gao Wen did not joke around anymore, but gave a very formal response.
"I definitely didn't do those things. But I can kind of understand what Sasha meant by those accusations."
Huh? Wait?
What does Gawain mean by this? Did Gawain really provoke Zverev? Without the need for reporters to ask, Gawain himself gave the answer.
"During the handshake after the game, I shook Sasha's right hand, looked him in the eyes and told him I was looking forward to the next fight."
I see!
The subtext is: During the handshake after the game, Zverev's perfunctory and rude behavior led to Gawain's first provocation.
Gawain admitted that he rubbed salt into Zverev's wounds with his words, which made Zverev angry and he fabricated locker room lies in an attempt to discredit Gawain.
Gawain, still frank.
"I'm serious."
“I know I’m still a rookie on the tour and I still have a lot to prove and a lot of challenges to complete. I’m always ready to fight and look forward to playing more against different players, especially the new generation of players who are my age.”
"I'm ready for this."
Confident and calm.
Sincere and straightforward.
Compared with Zverev Jr., the difference is obvious.
Although Gawain admitted that he took the initiative to provoke Zverev during the handshake, the point is that that scene was witnessed by thousands of people.
They all knew that it was Zverev who was rude first, and that Gawain's behavior and words were understandable.
Of course, it’s lonely at the top.
Coming to Gao Wen’s current position, along with the increase in supporters, the number of opponents is also increasing, and those black fans can always find reasons to hate.
Especially Djokovic's fans, obviously no one would like a player who defeated their idol four times. That is an irreconcilable feud.

Even though Gawain is polite, his series of actions will inevitably cause controversy, and Zverev's accusations will also have a group of supporters.
But this is inevitable in the Internet age. It is conceivable that the controversy and pressure on Gao Wen will continue to rise.
However, everyone has a scale in their hearts, and the truth about who is right and who is wrong between Gawaddin and Zverev is in the hearts of the people.
Then, a reporter followed up Gao Wen's words and asked questions.
"During the handshake after the game, Sasha did not show enough respect, but you did not choose to ignore it, but pointed it out and responded. Why is that?"
Tennis matches are often full of sparks, conflicts and clashes, and it is not uncommon for both sides to look at each other with disgust during the post-match handshake.
In other words, Gawain could have chosen to ignore Zverev's rudeness, but he didn't.
Gao Wen smiled and nodded in affirmative response.
"Because I am also an ordinary person."
"Everyone was saying this match was different, different, different; and Sasha was a really strong opponent, and my attitude and emotions changed as well."
"I care about this game, but I also care about my opponent Sasha."
"In the game, I gave my all and left nothing to chance in the next round; so after the game, I think we can show the most basic respect for each other."
"Obviously not everyone feels the same way, but I don't regret doing it and would do it again."
He is humble and polite, sincere and frank, yet at the same time, sharp and firm in his stance.
Gao Wen knows what he is facing and what he will face soon. These words will definitely make those haters explode, but does he care? No, he doesn't care.
After saying this, Gao Wen showed a big smile to the reporters.
"Excuse me, do you have any other questions?"
The reporters looked at each other in bewilderment, but they still had to admit that Gao Wen's handling of the situation was perfect and it couldn't have been better.
So, Zverev and Gao Wen each have their own opinions. Who should they believe?
Who is lying?
The answer seemed to have surfaced. No words were needed; it could be felt from the look in his eyes.
But the point is, do journalists choose sides? No.
How could the journalists choose a side? Of course they would continue to fan the flames.
"The post-95s civil war, the flames of war extend from the stadium to outside the stadium!"
