At 12 o'clock in the evening, the clock struck, which also represented the arrival of 12 years.

Because New Year's Day is not a traditional program in China, many people are very casual on this day, not at all like the Spring Festival, which makes it lively.

But after Li's father and mother became prosperous, after becoming the richest man on the Forbes list of China, the work became more and more busy, and Li Cai himself also ran all over the world and had to play tennis matches, so generally only during the New Year's holidays, the Li family of three can get together.

Although when they were together, they were all chatting about family life, watching the New Year's Day party on TV, which was very monotonous.

The Li family of three, who was watching TV, suddenly remembered something for Dad Li.

"Son, do you plan to play tennis for the rest of your life?"

After Li's father's career became bigger and bigger, he naturally wanted to train Li Cai to become the successor of the group, even if Li Cai had made such great achievements in tennis and Go.

At the beginning, Li Cai was no longer participating in the Go competition, although Dad Li didn't say anything, but he was still very happy in his heart, but he didn't expect Li Cai to play tennis instead, although he was already the first in China and even Asia, but in Dad Li's opinion, so hard work, exhaustion and hard work, made himself injured, and when he was old, it was easy to fall into the root of the disease.

Li's father, who already dotes on Li Cai, naturally doesn't want to see Li Cai like this, even if Li Cai doesn't do anything, he can be a loser with peace of mind, just like in Go, holding a competition by himself, and only participating in one competition a year, it will be much better, anyway, 50 million a year, this money can be taken out by himself, not to mention that Li Cai will win, basically it can be said that he should not pay.

Regarding Li's father's question, Li Cai naturally knew his thoughts.

Li Cai himself has thought about it, and after winning the Golden Slam this year, he announced his retirement, and the next ability of the system should also be able to open.

So, Li Cai replied very succinctly: "After winning the Golden Slam this year, I plan to retire." ”

When Dad Li heard this, his face was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately became happy.

However, Dad Li has been in real estate for so many years, and he has naturally developed the ability to not change his face.

So, Dad Li's face didn't change at all, but pretended to be very casual and asked: "Then what are you going to do after you retire, go to a university to get a diploma, or start a business?"

Dad Li naturally knows that he learns everything quickly and never forgets it, and he is also very talented in business, so it can be said that he doesn't have to worry about it at all.

On the side, Mama Li was naturally very happy when she heard that Li Cai was planning to retire from tennis this year, every time she saw that she was so tired, and sometimes she was injured, and she looked scarred, Mama Li felt distressed and wanted Li Cai to give up and stop playing.

Therefore, after Li Cai made it clear that he would retire this year, he naturally said to Li's father: "What do you care about the child, after so many years of hard work, let him do nothing, just spend money and enjoy life." ”

Dad Li was naturally unhappy, he was thinking about his son, why couldn't he ask the management.

So, Li's father and Li's mother began to argue.

Li Cai shrugged, thinking that he was really thinking too much about the argument between Li's father and Li's mother. And it's just that after a few years of changes, Li's father and Li's mother have reversed, originally Li's mother wanted to go to school by herself, but now it has become Li's father who wants to go to school by herself.

I have to say that time and environment can really change a person!

Li Cai didn't know what to do, especially with the system, so naturally he couldn't pack tickets.

So, Li Cai said: "I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it when the time comes, anyway, this year is still but just started." ”

Li's father and Li's mother argued for a while, and heard Li Cai say this.

After thinking about it, it is true, 12 years have just come, and no one can say what will happen in the future, so there is no need to argue now. And Li is a very protagonist child, and he may not necessarily listen to their opinions and arrange his life.

After this controversy, the three members of the Li family fell silent again, quietly watching the New Year's Day party on the TV, and just like that, they spent the day on New Year's Day.

……

Melbourne, Australia.

Australia is a country surrounded by the sea and is the only country in the world that covers an entire continent. Because Australia is located in the southern hemisphere, although the time difference is only 2-3 hours from China, the season is completely opposite.

In January, it is still winter in Huaguo, and the climate is very cold, but in January in Australia, it is already summer, and people only need to wear short sleeves, and they don't need to wear thick down jackets at all, which is the perfect competition season for Li Cai, a person who is afraid of the cold.

Melbourne is the second largest city in Australia and the capital of Victoria, a world-famous tourist city, and has been rated as the world's most livable city for many years, and is a world-famous international metropolis.

Li Cai has come to Melbourne two days in advance, firstly, to adapt to the change of weather, and secondly, he is afraid that he will not adapt to the water and soil, which will cause physical discomfort and affect the Australian Open competition.

Although the Australian Open is the first Grand Slam tournament to be held each year, it is also the youngest Grand Slam of the four Grand Slam tournaments.

The Australian Open Organizing Committee also announced the list of all 128 players in the men's group of the Australian Open, there are many familiar names in the list, but for the arrangement of seeded players, the distribution of seeded players at the Australian Open is the No. 1 seed player Djokovic, the No. 2 seed player Li Cai, the No. 3 seed player Nadal, and the No. 4 seed player Federer, these names are familiar to tennis fans and audiences。

Because the top seeds are the favorites to win the championship, although Li Cai is the second seed, many people are still optimistic about Djokovic, after all, Djokovic was the Australian Open champion last year, and many people hope that Djokovic can defend his title.

However, the top four seeded players are all in four regions and will not be in the same area, so as not to meet too early, resulting in no highlights in the semifinals and finals, and the ratings are not guaranteed, so as long as the top four seeded players are not eliminated, they will only meet in the semifinals, as for Li Cai and Djokovic, they will not be able to meet until the final. After being squeezed into the world No. 5, Murray did not enjoy this special zone, and could only be placed in the same group as Djokovic, and it is estimated that he will stop in the quarterfinals and cannot enter the semifinals.

Among the seeded players in Li Cai's group, there is only one Berdych in the top 10 in the world, and there are no powerful characters among the rest of the seeded players, and there are no tennis masters that Li Cai has heard of in later generations.

On January 16, the start time of the Australian Open.

The Australian Open is played at Melbourne Park in Melbourne.

One of the unique features of the Centre Court at the Australian Open is that it has a movable roof that can be used in case of rain or heat, while only the Australian Open and Wimbledon can be played indoors in the four Grand Slam tournaments.

Wimbledon has an indoor venue, and Li can still understand it, after all, it can be said that it is the rainy season in the United Kingdom, and the Australian Open is a hot summer day, so there is no need to build it.

Regarding Li Cai's question, Coach Zhang smiled and began to explain Li Cai's popular science.

"Because Australia was once a British colony, even if it became independent later, it is still one of the countries of the British Commonwealth, and it is still inextricably linked with the United Kingdom. So it's no surprise that both the Australian Open and Wimbledon courts can play indoors. ”

Li Cai listened to Coach Zhang's explanation and suddenly realized.

Soon, Li Cai also ushered in his first match of the Australian Open, and his opponent was called Kuznetsov, who was a newcomer to the Australian Open for the first time.
