The 2017 China Open tennis tournament will be held on September 30 at the National Tennis Center in Beijing, although there is still more than half a month before the start of the tournament, but due to the unexpected joining of local rising star Pan Xiqi, the China Open, which has a history of more than 10 years, has encountered an unexpected problem in ticket sales.

For Pansiqi's airborne landing at the China Open, the organizers of the China Open tournament have spared no effort in publicity. Not only in the traditional television and radio media, but also in the network media, the presiding committee has also carried out an overwhelming all-round promotion. Of course, Pansizi, as the biggest selling point, has his avatar occupying almost half of the promotional poster, and even the current football king natto has been squeezed far aside.

Although some natto fans have complained about this, for most Chinese people, such an arrangement seems to be taken for granted. Who made Pansiqi a national player after all, and who did not support him. Besides, the surprise and excitement that Pancich brought to the people of the country at the US Open has not yet dissipated, and now that he is fighting at home, it is natural that countless fans will come to the scene to help him.

As a result, the originally higher-level China Open women's event was suddenly stolen a lot of limelight by Pan Xiqi alone, and not too many people paid attention to it. However, for the fact that the women's event, which should be the main event, was snubbed by the public, the China Open Organizing Committee not only did not worry, but accepted it happily. Because they were pleasantly surprised to find that half a month before the official start of the China Open, the tickets for the main stadium on all the match days of the China Open were sold out unprecedentedly.

Such a situation has never occurred in previous China Open competitions. After all, the mass base of tennis in China is still relatively weak, and the people have not yet developed the habit of paying for tickets to watch the game on the spot. Although it is a top-level event, even at the most popular time in previous years, the overall attendance rate of the main stadium was barely seven or eight percent. There are very few games that can actually fill the stadium except for the final.

Judging by this year's ticket sales, Centre Court will be full from the first day of the tournament. This kind of box office sales can almost be regarded as a miracle in the tour other than the Grand Slam.

For the tournament committee, this is definitely a great thing. Because of such a huge number of ticket-buying fans, it indicates that this China Open is likely to be an unprecedented success. But it also brought them a small happiness trouble.

As a tennis tournament, China Tennis naturally has a large number of sponsors. It is also the strong support of these gold owners and fathers that has enabled the China Open to become the tournament with the highest prize money in the same level for many years. Therefore, according to the usual practice, the organizing committee will set aside a large number of tickets for these sponsors, which is usually a free ticket.

In previous years, when ticket sales were average, the number of free tickets had little impact on the box office. But this year, when ticket sales have been tight several times, how many free tickets should be set aside has become a headache for the organizing committee.

What makes them even more embarrassed is that sponsors, who didn't care much about free tickets in the past, have uncharacteristically asked for more free tickets this year. This can completely make the main committee dumbfounded, after all, the requirements of the fathers of the gold owners still need to be taken seriously, and they can't be offended at will. But according to the current situation, all the tickets that were originally planned have been sold out, and the calls for China Network to increase ticket sales are becoming more and more surging, where do they get the extra tickets to give to sponsors?

Of course, for the problem of the China Tennis Organizing Committee, Pan Xiqi, as the initiator, will naturally not worry about it. During this time, he was not idle, while actively contacting the coaches and rehabilitation therapists introduced by Sister Na, while conducting low-intensity recovery training in the Beijing team to prepare for the next China Open.

Among the coaches introduced by Sister Na, several of them do have a certain reputation in the tennis world, and they are also very happy to coach Pansic. But after a long phone call, Pansic was depressed to find that it was really not easy to form a suitable coaching group.

Through the experience of this US Open, Pan Xiqi realized that what he needed most was a top physical trainer to improve his physical fitness in an all-round way. After all, in the long schedule of the US Open, if it weren't for the magic capsule body, with his current physical condition, he would not have been able to survive a long time. In terms of game skills and tactics, he doesn't need the intervention of the coach, the coach only needs to collect the opponent's intelligence for him before the game and do some targeted preparation work.

But after talking about it for a while, he found that these coaches did not quite meet his requirements. And several physical trainers are only second-rate in the tennis world, far from the top level required by Pansiqi.

"It seems that Sister Na is right, the top coaching resources are in the hands of a large company like IMG, and it may be difficult to build a team with individual ability." Pansiqi thought to himself. However, in this case, I am afraid that the signing of the IMG contract will have to be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

Since he couldn't form a team in a short period of time, Pan Xiqi planned to continue training with the Beijing team. And until he finds the right coach, he plans to still let Coach Zheng guide his daily training. And this time in the China Open, Pan Xiqi may have to face the dilemma of competing alone like before. But fortunately, this time it was a competition in Beijing, and everything was familiar with the road, so it would not cause too much trouble to Pancic. At that time, there is really something that can't be withdrawn, so it's a big deal to let Lin Teng, this kid, be an assistant temporarily.

After the U.S. Open, except for an exclusive interview with CCTV, Pan Xiqi did not accept interviews with other media. Faced with a mountain of interview requests every day, Pan Xiqi refused with only one that did not want to affect the preparation of the Chinese Open. At the U.S. Open, these media fell into the face, and he still can't forget it to this day. Although the media almost all have a kneeling attitude towards him now, he still does not intend to reconcile with these hateful media so easily.

Director Xu also once advised Pan Xiqi to pay attention to improving the relationship with the media. But after persuading him a few times, seeing that Pansichie's attitude was extremely resolute, he didn't say anything more. But what people didn't expect was that in the face of Pansiqi's almost arrogant attitude, these usually high-spirited news media lost their temper at all this time, not only did they not become dissatisfied with Pansiqi, but they became more and more aroused to interview Pansiqi, and constantly tried to contact Pansiqi in various ways.

It can only be said that this is a realistic and cruel society. When you are just a fledgling nobody, it seems that anyone can step on your head at will; And when you really become famous, these people immediately change their faces and hold you high above their heads. Regarding the sharp contrast between the two before and after, Pansiqi only has one feeling at this time, that is, it feels great to be famous!
