Chapter 510: Humor

Click. Click, click, click.

Flashes of light poured down like a torrential rain, and then the sound of shutter clicks like thunder could be heard surging throughout the Arthur Ashe Stadium. Cheers, whistles, and screams rose and fell, as if a sea of ​​fire was pouring down from the sky to the ground.

Gawain was surrounded by light and shadows, and joy and happiness suddenly exploded in his chest. His mind went blank. He had thousands of thoughts running through his mind, but he couldn't find a suitable way to express them. He subconsciously let out a long breath, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Hey, I'm Gawain as Mr. Hargit said. In case someone just turned on the TV and doesn't understand what's going on, I need to introduce myself again: Gawain, 18 years old, 193 cm, weight, uh, I haven't weighed myself for a while, so I'm not sure..."

Hahaha.

Is this a personal introduction at a dating event? Or is this the first round of a beauty pageant?

The entire Arthur Ashe Stadium burst into laughter. Who could have thought that Gawain's championship speech would be so light and humorous, just like a talk show. Thunderous applause mixed with whistles and cheers surged throughout the stadium, and the originally boring award ceremony became interesting.

Gawain shrugged lightly and said jokingly, "Believe me, this is very, very necessary."

"If someone had told me two weeks ago, 'Hey, Gao Wen, believe it or not, you can win the US Open!' I would have thought he was crazy."

Hahaha.

Laughter surged again, especially when seeing Gawain rolling his eyes, the audience in front of them were already laughing.

"I am an ordinary child. I started to learn tennis because my mother liked Andre Agassi. Then I fell in love with tennis because I watched the games between Agassi and Sampras. Then I became a child with dreams. I ran towards my dreams a little bit clumsily and stubbornly."

"I dream of meeting Agassi and Sampras in person one day. I want to thank them for lighting up my world and letting me feel the magic of tennis."

Roar, roar, roar! The whole audience burst into applause towards Sampras and Agassi. Now people could finally understand why these two top superstars appeared in Gowen's player box, and not just came to watch the game as spectators. The boiling heat wave spread again.

Sampras and Agassi, the two old friends, exchanged glances and then both smiled.

"I dreamed that one day I would be able to walk onto Arthur Ashe Stadium and play under the watchful eyes of my father and mother, and use my running to carve out a niche for myself."

The five-star red flag fluttered wildly, surrounding Gao Wen's player box. Gao Hongli and Jiang Yanyun looked at the splendor and color before them with deep emotion. At the beginning, they regretted missing the moment when Gao Wen became the national champion, but they did not expect to get such compensation.

In a trance, Jiang Yanyun recalled the memories of watching the US Open finals at home. Little Gao Wen was like a meat ball, huddled beside her with his chin supported, quietly burying a seed of his dream, which then took root and sprouted, and in the blink of an eye had grown into a towering tree.

"I dream that one day I will be able to hold up a Grand Slam championship with my own hands, and then I will use practical actions to encourage everyone who is witnessing this moment: Please believe in dreams, please dream boldly. The reason why dreams are beautiful is not because they are unreal and unattainable, but because on the road to pursuing dreams, we will grow and transform little by little, use our own hands to open up our own lives, and then one day we will grow into the best version of ourselves."

Having said this, Gawain paused for a moment, and just quietly took in the huge crowds of people in front of him, using his eyes to record the magnificence and grandeur of this magnificent picture, and then the light deep in his eyes became bright and shining.

"At this moment, I am standing here, feeling my heart beating, basking in the light of my dream becoming reality, everything has become reality."

Boom boom boom! The whole stadium burst into applause and cheers. You can see all the spectators standing up, including the Croatian fans who were leaving the stadium one after another. They all stopped, their eyes filled with loss and sadness, but they couldn't help but feel excited by Gawain's words.

"For today's match, I need to thank and pay tribute to Marin Cilic. Thank you for still fighting and struggling. Thank you for proving that the most wonderful and moving thing about competitive sports is the belief of never giving up. Thank you for standing on this court and completing this wonderful match with me."

Cilic, standing not far behind Gawain, had a myriad of thoughts in his mind that suddenly surged up, and the emotions that he had been suppressing for so long finally burst through.

Unable to help himself, his eyes became slightly red, and Cilic wiped his cheeks in embarrassment to hide his emotions, and then applauded Gawain.

Clap, clap, the applause spread out in a mighty manner, and the Croatian fans finally put aside their prejudices and joined the applause of all the fans in the stadium.

The whole audience was thundering.

Gawain's eyes were slightly warm, but were soon drowned by the blossoming happiness and joy. He raised his voice amid the roar of the stadium and continued speaking. His passionate emotions gradually grew, and the surge and turmoil that was continuously released plunged the Arthur Ashe Stadium into a frenzy.

“Who knows? Maybe one day in the future, you will be standing here telling your story to the world and realizing your dream.”

"If that day really comes, I hope you can continue to pass on this belief and courage, so that more people dare to dream and pursue, and then confidently tell others that the kid named Gao Wen who realized all the wildest and most brilliant dreams at the US Open in 2014 was just the first, not the only one."

"Thanks."

Boom! Boom boom boom! The whole place exploded.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The thunderous applause and cheers merged into one.

As an individual sport, the championship speeches in tennis are often more personal and simple, thanking the opponents, the team, the audience, the fans, and the event organizers. That's about it. Even players who are good at speaking like Federer and Serena Williams find it difficult to come up with something flowery.

but!

Today, Gawain successfully moved everyone with a personal yet not-so-personal speech. It was about tennis, about fighting spirit, about dreams, and about every ordinary Don Quixote who still dared to dream. Gawain easily ignited the enthusiasm of the audience.

Boom boom boom! The gorgeous and intense sunset glow began to burn, reflecting on the bright faces of people who were excited, moved and touched. The applause and cheers connected all the audience present. The vast momentum broke the constraints of the screen and infected every audience member who was watching the scene.

Oops.

Someone shouted, and then one after another, they became one continuous shout.
