Chapter 719: All Eyes Are on You
"Beer, ready."
"BBQ, ready."
"Computer and network cable are ready."
"My heart is ready, too."
"Very good, everything is ready."
“Ahhhh!”
Jiang Yanqing sat in front of the computer with his hands on his chest. Even though several hours had passed, he still couldn't calm down from his excitement.
Not only is it not calm, it is becoming more and more turbulent.
Gao Wen is about to enter the year-end finals? Asian showdown? Newcomer showdown? US Open quarterfinal replay? Playing as a substitute but still retaining hope of qualifying? Everything makes the moment before my eyes glow with a rosy glow. Just imagining it makes me tremble uncontrollably.
Then, Jiang Yanqing posted a photo in the group. It was his computer desk, and everything was ready.
"I am ready to fight alongside Gawain."
"+1."
"+1."
…
"+10086."
Swipe, swipe, swipe. Information is flooding the screen like crazy.
Obviously, there are definitely more than one or two fans like Jiang Yanqing who are so excited that their hearts are paralyzed.
This time, it happened too suddenly, and the fans had no time to organize an event. Moreover, today is Thursday, a weekday, and many fans have to go to work tomorrow and have no way to get together. So, everyone gathered online to watch the game together.
The sense of ritual can always make people feel more enthusiastic.
It's not just the fans. CCTV5, studio.
"Sorry, please let me go. Sorry, sorry..."
Tong Kexin walked all the way like a tornado, and disappeared at the end of the corridor in a blink of an eye. Then he finally arrived at the live broadcast room, hurriedly walked towards the live broadcast platform, and nodded to his partner.
"Sorry, I was delayed for a while due to a temporary meeting to discuss the relevant situation."
CCTV will naturally not miss the ATP year-end finals and will broadcast every game live. This year, the person in charge of the live broadcast is the veteran commentator Tong Kexin.
An unexpected situation occurred and the entire commentary structure and plan needed to be adjusted. What's more, the substitute was Gao Wen, so the entire program team was mobilized.
From top to bottom, in front of and behind the scenes, everything started to operate according to the predetermined plan at the first opportunity. However, even with all the preparations made, the urgency of time still resulted in a chaotic scene with people coming and going as fast as the wind. For a live broadcast program, every second counts.
Fortunately, Tong Kexin no longer needed to do the stand-up commentary himself, and a partner was temporarily sent over: Xu Yang.
On professional sports channels, every sporting event has a relatively fixed commentary partner. Although it is not 100% accurate, habitual partners often have a better understanding of each other.
Among them, Hu Litao and Zhan Jun have partnered up many times, and they jointly commented on the US Open this year; Tong Kexin is more often partnered with Xu Yang, and the cooperation between the two has a kind of crosstalk effect, with Xu Yang playing the supporting role and Tong Kexin playing the funny role.
Tong Kexin’s “childish words and expressions” are also well-known on social networks.
Originally, this year's year-end finals would have been Tong Kexin's stand-up comedy, but now with Gao Wen's appearance, the treatment and significance are different, and the entire standard has been immediately raised.
Xu Yang's personality seemed calm and reserved. "Don't worry, the information always needs to be prepared. I am also reading Gao Wen's data in Paris last week."
"How is it? Is there anything that makes a big splash? Otherwise, you can't win the championship." Tong Kexin hurriedly took his seat.
But these words seemed a little... strange.
Xu Yang was no longer surprised and answered in his usual tone, "The forehand performance was really good. The performance in Paris was even better than in New York."
"Then I hope he can copy and paste it in London." Tong Kexin said as if it was a matter of course.
Xu Yang wanted to explain that the relationship between the game status and the technical structure is not so simple to copy and paste, but he swallowed the words that came to his lips, "Today's game is worth looking forward to."
"Yes, yes." Tong Kexin's voice was very cheerful.
In just a few hours, the entire Chinese continent was in an uproar. The year-end finals, which had already caused a lot of discussion, became even more of a hot topic.
Even popular actors and idol singers began to repost the message, saying one by one that they were watching the game and were extremely nervous.
At the same time, the O2 Stadium also ushered in the climax of the five full match days -
It was because of Gawain, but it wasn’t entirely because of Gawain.
To be precise, it should be said that it is because they are looking forward to fresh blood, exciting games, and some excitement on the stage of the year-end finals.
Most importantly, as the new US Open champion, Gao Wen is definitely the hottest topic. This super star who emerged this season has attracted countless attention as if he has three heads and six arms. However, for the majority of fans, they have heard of his name but have never watched his game. Now they can finally appreciate it up close, so naturally no one wants to miss it.
Whether it's a mule or a horse, it always has to come out for a walk.
As a result, all 20,000 tickets for the O2 Arena were sold out; at the same time, countless spectators were still gathered in front of the big screen outside the stadium.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The flow never stops.
There are huge crowds of people.
It’s because of curiosity and also because of anticipation.
The air began to burn quietly.
The Sky TV director was switching the camera lenses, capturing one, two, three of the gorgeous guest lineup in the audience stands.
"...Agassi showed up. This is not surprising. In Flushing Meadows, Agassi accompanied Gao Wen all the way to the top. But today, the 'Queen of Tennis' Graf also showed up. The couple should be looking forward to today's game."
"David Beckham shows up and he should be next to Romeo."
"Oh, is that... Eden Hazard? Yes, yes, that's the Belgian winger who wears the No. 10 jersey for Chelsea this season. Chelsea just beat Liverpool 2-1 last week. Chelsea didn't play for two weeks, but I didn't expect him to come to the O2 Stadium to watch the game."
"Wait, is that the current 007 Daniel Craig? Wow, apparently we're not the only ones paying attention to this showdown today."
The eyes of the whole world, not just the Chinese mainland, all gathered towards the O2 Stadium, and then, the electronic drum beats sounded:
Boom boom boom.
Dong, dong, dong! Dimitrov, who was sitting in the Gao Wen player box, felt his heart tighten, even more nervous than when he was on the court, and looked towards the entrance of the player tunnel.
"Louder, Henry, louder!"
Shouts were heard in the tavern, but Plan did not turn her head, her eyes still fixed on the TV screen. This was her first time watching a live broadcast of a professional match, and she thought she would be calm, but as the volume gradually turned up, her heart began to beat faster.
Boom boom boom.
Like the beating of drums, my hands clenched into fists involuntarily.
"Shh!"
"Here he comes, Gawain comes!"
"Our girl knight has appeared!"
Wow! All the guests and bartenders in the tavern raised their arms and shouted loudly, and the sound of ghosts and wolves howling in the bath made Plan very unfamiliar.
But...it didn't seem to be annoying. She also felt her heart surge. Then, she could see on the TV screen: Gawain appeared!
