At 10 p.m. Beijing time on September 10, it stands to reason that it was a very ordinary Sunday night. However, in the new CCTV building in Beijing's CBD, there is one department that is still brightly lit, and all the staff are in a state of extreme excitement.

In another hour, the men's singles final of the 2017 US Open tennis tournament, which has been highly anticipated by Chinese fans, will officially begin. In previous years, this tournament did not receive much attention due to the lackluster performance of Chinese tennis players. In addition, after the game entered the quarterfinals, almost all of them were held in Beijing late at night, so the ratings can be said to be very bleak.

This year, however, everything has changed. Due to the emergence of Pansiqi, coupled with the successive hot topics related to him, the popularity of this year's US Open in China has been unprecedentedly high, and the ratings have also been rising. Judging from all indications, the tennis popularity brought by Pan Xiqi has even surpassed the peak of Sister Na's two Grand Slams that year, pushing Chinese tennis to a new height.

It is precisely for this reason that CCTV has been extremely tough on the US Open organizing committee to adjust the time of the final to make it more in line with the viewing habits of Chinese audiences. The game was moved to 11 p.m., and although it was still not prime time in China, the positive effects were quickly apparent.

"Director Wang, it's 10:20 p.m., and there are still 40 minutes before the official start of the game, but the number of real-time viewers of the show has exceeded 100 million. And that's not even counting those who tune in through online media. I can't imagine what kind of staggering numbers the ratings will reach when the game officially starts. Xiao Liu, who is responsible for detecting real-time ratings data on the sports channel, reported to Wang Tao, the director of the sports channel, extremely excitedly.

"Hehe, now it's just a documentary about Pansiqi, and it's already reached this level, it seems that our big bet this time can be regarded as the right bet. You must know that this time I coordinated the final time with the US Open Organizing Committee, but I came forward to greet the big leaders of the station, otherwise, we would not have the ability to rely on our sports channel alone. Thinking of the huge ratings success that was about to be harvested, Wang Tao was proud and secretly relieved in his heart.

"Director Wang, in this year without the Olympics and the World Cup, this is probably the highest rating of our station this year. I have to say that Pansic is really our lucky general. Xiao Liu was also full of joy.

"Hehe, the numbers are far from the limit now. After waiting for the guests to come on the stage for a while, you will give me specific ratings data. I believe that the appearance of this person will definitely drive the ratings to rise further. Wang Tao instructed confidently.

The time soon came to 10:30, and after the half-hour Pan Xiqi personal documentary ended, CCTV Sports Channel officially entered the live broadcast time of the final. In the luxurious studio of the new CCTV building, Tong Kexin, a senior tennis commentator, is introducing the special commentators of the game to the audience in front of the TV with extremely excited emotions.

"Audience friends, in half an hour, the men's singles final between my country's player Pan Xiqi and the world's top seed natto will start as scheduled. Today, we are very honored to have Sister Na, a superstar from China and the first Asian player in history to win a Grand Slam singles title, as the guest commentator for this match. I believe that Sister Yi Na has made outstanding contributions to Chinese tennis, and no one is more suitable than her to verify this moment worthy of history with us! ”

After a series of passionate introductions, the TV camera turned to Tong Kexin's side, and a familiar figure that countless Chinese tennis fans will never forget appeared in the TV screen. This person is the famous Chinese tennis player who has been announced to be on the auction for three years and has also become the mother of two children - Sister Na!

"Sister Na, welcome to you. If I'm not mistaken, this is probably your first time on TV as a guest commentator at a tennis match. Don't know what made you want to make this decision? Tong Kexin asked.

"Of course, I want to thank CCTV for giving me this opportunity. CCTV has invited me a few times before, but I always feel that I am not good at commentary, and I am afraid that I will not meet the requirements of being on TV. But this time, I didn't want to miss such an important moment, so I came. Sister Na replied solemnly.

"Oh, Sister Lian Na also thinks that this final is of such great significance? You know that you've played four Grand Slam finals, so there's nothing big about it that makes you nervous, right? Tong Kexin asked with some surprise.

"This time it's different. At that time, I won the French Open and the Australian Open, in fact, after many years of preparation, I have reached that level, it is a matter of course. But Pansiqi was able to perform now without any warning, which has to be admired. In particular, his temper is very good to my taste, and I think he told reporters a few rounds before the tournament that he wanted to win the championship or something. Not every athlete can have such a rhetoric. Sister Na explained the reason why she went out of the mountain unexpectedly.

Sister Na's words made the audience in front of the TV suddenly remember that in the first two rounds of the US Open, Pan Xiqi, who threw out the boast of winning the championship, is not the current national idol who is wildly sought after by fans across the country, but more like an arrogant person who is despised by everyone. In just ten days, the public's attitude towards Pansiqi has undergone earth-shaking changes, which makes people sigh at the cruelty and reality of the sports world.

In fact, Pan Xiqi's incident also had a deep touch on Sister Na. She remembers more than a decade ago, when she was just a young player under 20 years old, she was interviewed by reporters and told her dream of breaking into the top 10 in the world. At the level of Chinese tennis at the time, such a goal was not much more realistic than Pancic's declaration of victory.

The young Sister Na was also doubted and ridiculed from all sides, but she firmly believed that as long as she trained hard, she would one day achieve her dream. In the end, she not only came to the second place in the world rankings, but also won two Grand Slam titles in history, far exceeding her original vow, and even slapped those who looked down on her in the face. It can be said that Sister Na herself is a classic case of ** silk counterattack.

Because of this, Sister Na actually has a feeling of sympathy for Pan Xiqi, who is about to play. Of course, Tong Kexin, who was on the side, should not be able to understand Sister Na's complicated feelings when she was touched by the past at this time.

Sure enough, as predicted by director Wang Tao, due to the appearance of Sister Na, the ratings of the show soared again, and the number of viewers at this time had exceeded 150 million. On the U.S. side, Pansiqi, who was already ready, stood in the players' tunnel, waiting for the call of the staff with natto behind him. It can be said that the ultimate battle of men's singles, which has attracted much attention all over the world, is about to start! Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
