Chapter 925: Great Satisfaction
Seljan, Seljan again, the haunting Seljan, the Seljan who is unwilling to be lonely.
Even the fathers of the Williams sisters and Wozniacki didn't have that much drama.
In the post-match press conference where Gawain made history, Serjan once again became the key word, and strictly speaking, this was not that surprising.
Anyway, it’s not the first time, and it probably won’t be the last.
So, what about Gawain?
"Excuse me, may I ask, what did he say? To be honest, I have no memory of it."
A casual response caused a burst of low laughter at the scene.
Obviously, there is really nothing worth caring about Seljan to Gawain.
It doesn't matter.
But the problem was that Gawain's expression was so sincere and genuine, without any sarcasm at all, that the Serbian reporter couldn't say anything to Gawain.
Frustrated.
So, what should he do? "Serjan said, you are no match for Djokovic, Djokovic is the best player in the world, he can beat you easily."
In fact, there are many others.
For example, Serjan thinks Gawain is a clown who deliberately provokes Djokovic just to gain traffic.
And so on and so forth.
But how could a Serbian journalist expose Serjan's shortcomings? Therefore, other offensive words were omitted, and this is enough.
Gao Wen raised his chin slightly, revealing an expression of sudden enlightenment, "If he wants to play a game with me, I welcome him anytime."
"...What?" The poor reporter obviously didn't react and was caught off guard. Why did Gawain always play by his own rules?
Gawain was very patient and had no intention of mocking the other party. "I mean, we have to decide the winner through competition, right? If he is ready, we can always go to the training ground for a match. Or does he think that Rod Laver Arena is more suitable for his specifications?"
"Well... but this is more difficult."
Gao Wen held his chin with his hand and made an expression of serious thinking. He seemed to be very focused and engaged.
"I should communicate this with the organizer. I think my weight may not be enough, and I still need to rely on Mr. Djokovic's name. Then, the venue will be handed over to him. When he is ready, he can just notify me."
Polite, sincere, and serious.
It's like we're talking about business.
But the more serious Gawain is, the more obvious the absurdity of the whole scene becomes, like an Italian comedy.
"...Serjan was talking about Novak, not himself. I think you misunderstood..." The poor reporter finally understood what Gawain meant. He was challenging Serjan, so he quickly explained.
However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gawain.
"I think you are the one who misunderstood. Since the player who will play against Stan in the semi-final tomorrow is Novak, please pay attention to Novak's remarks, okay?"
"As for the other big mouths, please don't waste everyone's time, okay? Please don't act like the Virgin Mary who is honored by her son."
Phew.
The attack was so powerful that it caused a surge of excitement and rejoicing at the scene, but the reporters still controlled themselves and did not disrupt the atmosphere.
The reporter: …
"But..." But, Serjan is Djokovic's father!
Gawain used his interrupt skill again, "So, did Novak say anything?"
"……No."
Gao Wen spread his hands and showed a big smile, as if he was not surprised at all. "Novak has always been like this, with the heart and bearing of a champion."
A tall hat was put on Djokovic's head.
The reporter: …
There was a brief silence in the press conference room, and the air was surging.
Yu Jia almost couldn't control himself. If he wasn't worried about further exacerbating the conflict and putting Gao Wen on the spot, he would have wanted to applaud Gao Wen: Well done!
People have always paid too much attention to Serjan because he is Djokovic's father.
But since Djokovic ignored Serjan's remarks and kept letting it go, why should other players understand those nonsense remarks again and again?
He responded and cared about her every time. Did Seljan really think he was a nobody?
certainly.
If Gawain had gone all out and shown his brilliance, then he and Djokovic would have been at odds with each other; but Gawain shifted the focus, openly praising and secretly criticizing, completely ignoring Serjan, and ignoring Serjan by praising Djokovic. This handling of the matter has to be said to be brilliant.
It can be imagined that the expressions of Djokovic and his son, who were frustrated but had to swallow their anger, must have been very interesting.
But I don’t know whether this father and son are finally willing to communicate properly behind closed doors.
Imagine Djokovic's reaction, and then imagine Serjan's reaction...
At the scene, the air was surging.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The reporters could hardly contain their excitement and joy as they looked at each other in bewilderment. It had to be said that this scene was truly wonderful.
At this moment——
"good!"
A reporter couldn't help but cheer for Gao Wen.
Who! Isn't this adding fuel to the fire? Djokovic's supporters should have sharpened their knives to attack Gao Wen, and they might even fight him on the spot.
Was this Gao Wen's friend or foe? But the person concerned quickly shut up, so that when the busy eyes of the entire press conference room reflexively searched for the source of the sound, they could not immediately find the person who made the sound. There was only a rustling commotion, and everyone was suspected.
The air is slightly condensed.
No one expected the development of things to go off track, including Gawain.
Gao Wen also realized at the first moment that things were getting out of control. He was about to say a few words to control the situation, but he didn't expect that he was still a step too slow.
Then——
"Ignore that bullshit."
"Good job."
"One hundred percent correct."
“That’s right.”
"Next question."
The sounds came one after another, coming from different directions and corners. For a moment, it seemed that the whole room was echoing.
In such an unexpected and wonderful way, the crisis was resolved for the reporter and momentum was created for Gao Wen, and the situation was quietly reversed.
Yu Jia looked around in astonishment, unable to believe his eyes. This subsequent development was obviously something none of them had expected.
It seems that the atmosphere on the scene is tilting towards Gao Wen.
The reporters stood behind Gawain not because they liked or supported Gawain, or were willing to oppose Djokovic, but more because they couldn't stand Serjan's dragging him down.
Over the years, Serjan has been stirring up trouble everywhere. Some reporters just watched the show, some reporters just stood by and watched coldly, and some reporters were repulsed: partly because Federer and Nadal have established their reputation and prestige in the entire tennis field through words and deeds, and have indeed won the respect of countless reporters, so it is inevitable to be biased.
But that’s not all.
Another important reason is that tennis has always been considered a gentleman's sport.
And Serjan's behavior was far from gentlemanly.
