Chapter 2066: The Authority of Discourse



A thought is like a spark, which can start a huge storm in the mind like a prairie fire in the blink of an eye.

Calveley looked at Gawain with eyes full of surprise, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow."

This was not the first time that Calveley understood Gawain's wisdom. Nike's internal emphasis and recognition of Gawain was not that simple. But until now, Calveley realized that he still did not appreciate Gawain's true ability.

Perhaps, ATP, Nike, and everyone else still underestimated Gao Wen.

So, how should I describe my thoughts at this moment?

"Wow," Calveley exclaimed again.

Instead, Gao Wen smiled modestly and said, "My idea is just an idealized concept. It may be difficult to implement it in practice."

"What I mean is that if you make people aware that this is a party, naturally, some people will raise their hands and ask to participate."

On paper, Gao Wen can be boastful, but he also knows his own weight. If he really puts it into practice, he may be exposed immediately.

But to Calveley, that's not a problem.

At least, Gao Wen proposed a concept and an inspiration that is indeed better than ATP's existing plan. It is not only feasible, but also more effective.

When he looked at Gawain again, Calveley's expression was somewhat playful. He looked at Gawain carefully, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

"Wait, Gawain, what about you?"

Tonight, Calveley came to extend the invitation, hoping that Gao Wen would cooperate with ATP, and this young player born in 1995 would become the spokesperson of the youth storm and leverage the entire market; but after going around in circles, Gao Wen has completely distanced himself from the matter and has become a behind-the-scenes role.

This is a bit tricky.

Gao Wen immediately understood what Calveley meant, and a smile flashed in his eyes. "If you need me, I am still willing to cooperate with you in the activities."

“In fact, there are many ways for young players to get involved.”

"Let's assume that the entry requirement for the ATP Finals is under 21 years old. But is it possible that even if you are still under 21 years old, you are already ranked in the top eight in the world and qualified to participate in the ATP Finals?"

Calveley laughed outright, "Like you."

Gao Wen spread his hands, "For example, I will definitely choose the ATP Finals. When the New Generation Finals is over, I can participate in it. I won't cause any trouble for myself. There is no need to hold an exhibition match. But if they don't mind, I can go and present the championship trophy?"

Calveley understood immediately and laughed heartily.

While other youngsters of similar age are competing for the New Generation Year-End Finals championship, Gao Wen has already served as the presenter of the championship trophy.

So, what would those young people think? "Or, the New Generation Year-End Finals could be held in advance, and the final champion would have the opportunity to watch the finals at the O2 Arena in London, or even have the opportunity to be selected from the eight contestants of the Year-End Finals to play an exhibition match with each other."

"In other words, the champion of the New Generation Year-End Finals can get a wild card for any tournament in the host country. If it is a 250-point tournament or a 500-point tournament, it is a main tournament wild card; if it is a Masters or Grand Slam, it is a qualifying tournament wild card."

"Or else, let's change the competition system and choose the champion mode instead of the group stage."

Calveley was stunned. “Huh?”

Then, Calveley saw Gawain's excited expression.

"When the eight qualified players are announced, we can ask the eight players who is confident that they can become the champion."

"Two champions will be selected and divided into two groups."

"Of course, the new generation is likely to be full of confidence. If more than two players express their willingness to become the champion, then a draw will be held. If there is only one player who expresses his willingness to become the champion, then the other player will be decided by drawing lots from the remaining players."

"In short, two champions, two teams."

“Then, the focus is on the latter.”

"In addition to the two champions, the other six players can choose their own groups to see who is willing to join which group. Next, it will not be a one-by-one match, but a round-robin match. The champion will be responsible for defending the ring, and the challengers will appear one by one. The order of appearance is also drawn by lot, and it all depends on luck, until the last survivor is decided in the group and advances to the finals."

"Here, the two groups may not be evenly divided. One group may have five people, and the other group may have only one person. But it doesn't matter. The group with one person will directly advance to the finals, and the other group will have four people challenging the champion in a round-robin battle."

"So, here, it all depends on strategy. How to choose a group is also a tactic."

"Finally, the survivors from the two groups will compete in the finals for the championship."

"So, what's the point?"

"If you are the champion, once you successfully defend the title, the prize money will be doubled; if you win, the prize money will be doubled again. But if you are not the champion, the prize money will remain the same."

Tobias: ...

Calveley: ...

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This is the second time.

Calveley turned to look at Tobias, eyes full of surprise and disbelief. "Wow, where on earth did this guy come from?"

Time and again, Calveley felt Gawain's aura, the leadership charm that radiated from the inside out was truly extraordinary.

If before tonight, ATP regarded Koeman as a role model, a representative and an image, trying to use Koeman's influence to complete the promotion layout; then after tonight, Calvelli believes that they should change their strategy. No matter what ATP thinks, at least Nike needs to adjust its plan.

Perhaps, there is more to Gawain than this, and there are many more rich treasures waiting to be unearthed in him.

Perhaps, they should consider Gao Wen as a strategic partner.

Without waiting for Tobias to answer, Calvery looked back at Gawain.

In fact, he knew that this was just an idea, and how feasible it was was not yet clear, as it would definitely need to be discussed later; but what he was curious about now was how many more ideas Gawain could come up with if he continued brainstorming.

"It's not fair. You should know that tennis is not basketball. One match after another is difficult even for you, Roger or Rafa."

"Two singles matches in one day is the limit. In the craziest situation, you can add a doubles match. If you don't complete the match in one day, but for two or three consecutive days, it's actually the same. Your opponent will be well rested while you play continuously. Although the prize money is generous, it is still beyond imagination."

In the clash of ideas, Calveley immediately grasped the key point and did not fall into the blueprint drawn by Gawain and lose his mind.

Gao Wen was not surprised either.

Even Calveley, a "bystander", could see it, let alone Gao Wen, a professional player. Gao Wen smiled and said, "Hey, I said, I'm just an ordinary player. You shouldn't throw these technical problems to me."

Calveley watched Gawain's calmness and composure, and immediately realized that -

It's not that Gawain couldn't give an answer, but he saw through Calveley's strategy of continuing to test him. Calveley just tried to control the situation of the conversation, but in the blink of an eye, he was controlled by Gawain again.

Awesome, really awesome.
