Chapter 300: Chinese Power

After saying goodbye to Wang Yanyi, Pan Xiqi and Lu Yanxun returned to their residence together. Although Lu Yanxun has finished all the matches of this US Open, it stands to reason that he should have returned to Taiwan a long time ago. But he saw that Pan Xiqi had no one around him to take care of him, so he couldn't bear it and took the initiative to stay and temporarily act as Pan Xiqi's logistics team, which made Pan Xiqi feel quite moved.

"Xiqi, tomorrow is the men's singles final, and your marathon US Open journey should be over. All three events reached the finals, I really don't know how you carried this small body. I haven't seen you do too much recovery training, don't tell me you're born with a strong backbone. Knocking Pan Xiqi's chest muscles, Lu Yanxun looked Pan Xiqi up and down with monster-like eyes, and asked in surprise.

Of course, Pan Xiqi couldn't directly tell the other party that he had eaten the magic capsule given by the alien dog to ensure that he had enough physical strength, and if he really let Lu Yanxun know about the existence of the alien dog, he wouldn't be scared to the point of insanity. Besides, the alien dog is his biggest secret at this stage, and he didn't even reveal anything to Wang Yan.

"Hey, maybe I'm more resistant to fatigue. No matter how tired the game is, as long as I get a good night's sleep, tomorrow I am guaranteed to come back to life with full blood. Casually reasoning, Pansic replied with a wicked smile on his face.

"Hmph, if you can recover your strength by sleeping, then what do you need a physical trainer to do. Okay, okay, I'm not going to gossip anymore. You'll have to rest tonight, because tomorrow's men's singles final starts at 11 a.m., so you'll have to get up early in the morning to prepare. Seemingly not quite satisfied with Pan Xiqi's answer, Lu Yanxun shook his head and said.

"Eleven? How could it be so early? If I'm not mistaken, the men's singles finals have been played at 4 p.m. US time. In the past, in order to watch the game, I had to set an alarm clock and get up in the middle of the night. Pansichie asked in surprise.

"Hey, it's not because you guys accidentally entered the finals, the U.S. Open Organizing Committee temporarily changed the schedule in order to match the viewing time of mainland audiences. It is said that the coaching team of Natto protested to the organizing committee over this. Lu Yanxun looked at Pan Xiqi with a strange look on his face.

"For me? Don't be kidding, how can I have such a big face. Besides, I think it's better to start at four o'clock. Eleven o'clock was a little early. Pansic found it a little hard to believe what the other party said.

"I didn't believe it before, but since I've read your news on the Internet, I have to believe it. You don't know, your popularity in the mainland now is not too high. When I reached the quarterfinals of Wimbledon, the whole Taiwan was also a sensation. But compared to your current influence in the mainland, it is really far behind. ”

"According to news reports in the mainland, the ratings of your men's singles semi-final alone have set the highest Grand Slam record since Sister Na retired. And these media predict that in the men's singles final, the number of viewers is very likely to exceed the 100 million people when Sister Na won the French Open. In order to allow mainland audiences to have a more suitable viewing time, CCTV went so far as to coordinate with the US Open Organizing Committee and request that the match be brought forward to 11 o'clock. What is even more unexpected is that a proud US Open organizing committee actually agreed. I have to say that the influence of Chinese mainland in the world is really not covered. ”

Speaking of which, Pan Xiqi felt that Lu Yanxun was about to kneel down for CCTV's domineering. Because in Lu Yanxun's view, with Taiwan's little influence, if he entered the final, the US Open organizing committee would never change the schedule for the convenience of Taiwanese audiences.

In fact, this matter is not as easy as Lu Yanxun said. After hearing CCTV's request, the US Open Organizing Committee refused without hesitation. However, the convincing data provided by CCTV subsequently forced the US Open organizing committee to seriously consider the feasibility of doing so.

Like other tournaments, the U.S. Open wants to expand its presence in China. But unlike the other three Grand Slams, the US Open has never been able to find a breakthrough that can catch the attention of Chinese audiences, and its popularity in China has always been tepid.

What they didn't expect was that due to the appearance of Pansiqi, a Chinese late-night men's singles semi-final would be able to attract more than 50 million Chinese viewers. If this number were in the United States, I am afraid that only the Super Bowl could beat it. Thinking about it this way, if the game time is moved to 11 o'clock according to CCTV's requirements, the ratings at that time are unimaginable, at least more than the 100 million viewers of the French Open, there should be no problem.

Thinking of this possibility, an economically minded American agreed. This makes tomorrow's men's singles final the only one in decades that doesn't start at 4pm. As Lu Yanxun said, the growing influence of China's economic development is permeating all corners of the world.

"Well, since it's convenient for domestic audiences, then I naturally don't have any opinions. I just hope that natto they don't blame me, after all, it was because of me that the schedule was adjusted. Panci said apologetically.

"You're still in the mood to take care of natto, so you better think about yourself first. To be honest, after watching so many of your games, I have no doubts about your strength. But it's a pity that you faced natto in the final, and if you were a different person, I think you have a great hope of winning the championship. Lu Yanxun's tone revealed a little regret.

"Oh, so you don't think much of me, do you?" Pansiqi was a little surprised.

"Well, if it's not your first time playing against him, I think it's still very promising. But you've never met him before, not even a similar player, and it's too difficult to beat him. Lu Yanxun shook his head and said.

"I've watched a lot of his games, it's as scary as you say. Hasn't he been upset from time to time in the past two years? Pansiqi asked, a little puzzled.

"It's different, it's different. At least none of the people who won against him were playing against him for the first time. The technical style of natto is not as simple as what you see on TV. If you haven't played against him personally, you won't be able to understand what I mean. When I first met him, I felt like I couldn't play at all. Thinking of that game, Lu Yanxun seemed to have lingering palpitations.

"Natto, are you really that strong? Okay, tomorrow in the finals, let me meet you well! Lu Yanxun's downturn stimulated Pan Xiqi's inner fighting spirit, and now he is faintly looking forward to tomorrow's decisive battle. Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
