On August 9, the Olympic Games officially began, and on this day, there was no Zhang Guan competition.

Athletics doesn't start until a few days later, so Zhang Guan will first appear in tennis on August 10, which is also the opening match of the Olympic tennis event.

"The first round of the men's singles is scheduled for August 10 and August 11, and we know that there will be basketball and track and field competitions later, so we deliberately scheduled your first round of tennis on August 10, which is also the opening match of the Olympic tennis competition. This will give you a day off on August 11. Director Liu on the phone continued: "In the later competitions, we will try to take care of your time in the schedule, this Olympic Games is our home stadium, and the organizers are also our own people, so the competition time is also our own decision." ”

"Thank you Director Liu for your trouble." Zhang Guan said politely.

"Whereever, these are what we should do, but it's you, don't have too much pressure when you play, just play normally. By the way, I still have something to tell you about the opening match of tennis, your opponent in the first round is Lu Yanxun, you must know him, right? Director Liu asked.

"I know, he is a Taiwanese player, although I have not played against him, nor have I communicated with him, but I still know him when we meet." Zhang Guan said.

I only heard Director Liu speak: "In the tennis opening match, it is also of special meaning to let you play against Lu Yanxun, after all, it is the Olympic Games, a rare event in decades, and it is also a grand event for all our Chinese, so we must also reflect that the compatriots on both sides of the strait are one family, have a common bloodline, a common culture, a common connection, and a common vision, and we must show that our blood flows in the blood of the Chinese nation, and what we adhere to spiritually is the soul of the Chinese nation." That's why such a tennis opener was arranged. You should be able to understand that, right? ”

"As soon as you say this, I understand, it turned out to be a release of goodwill to the other side, I originally thought that you wanted me to kill him Lu Yanxun in the first round!" Zhang Guan said with a smile.

"Of course, you have to kill Lu Yanxun, otherwise how can you advance, but while killing Lu Yanxu, you must also reflect our sincerity and friendliness." Director Liu spoke.

"Uh, sincere and friendly? How? Director Liu, don't go around in circles, just say it! Zhang Guan said.

"What we mean is that when you compete, you'd better let someone else, after all, it's a Taiwanese compatriot, and it's not easy to participate in an Olympic Games, give people some face, don't let people lose too ugly......" Director Liu said with some embarrassment.

……

Meanwhile, in the Olympic Village, the leader of the Taipei team's tennis team was in Lu Yanxun's room.

"Your opponent in the first round turned out to be Zhang Guan, which is good news for us. Although Zhang Guan's world ranking is still very high, he has not played tennis for eight months! An athlete who hasn't played in eight months, how much strength does he have left? I'm afraid that the technology has long been rusty. The team leader clenched his fists and said excitedly.

"But Zhang Guan is a Grand Slam champion-level player after all, and it only took one year to win the Grand Slam last year, so his strength is definitely above me!" Lu Yanxun said.

"How can you raise the prestige of others and destroy your own ambition! Zhang Guan did achieve good results, but that only represents the past. Another thing you should note is that Zhang Guan only focused on tennis in the Grand Slam competition, and now in the Olympic Games, in addition to participating in tennis competitions, he also has to participate in several sports competitions in track and field. "The team leader is still full of confidence.

Lu Yanxun shook his head helplessly, this team leader is obviously too naïve, the so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse, such as Federer, Nadal, Djokovic and other world-class players, can not win a set of games in Zhang Guan's hands, how can he defeat Zhang Guan?

The team leader seemed to see Lu Yanxun's lack of confidence, and he then said: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us, as long as we defeat Zhang Guan, you will be our hero in Taiwan, and the meaning behind this is no less than a gold medal!" And we have to tell those local buns in the mainland that we in Taiwan are far more developed than them in tennis! ”

Lu Yanxun sighed helplessly, all "Taiwan heroes" are false, and the last words of the team leader are his true intentions. Although the Olympics are not politically involved, they can also be seen as another arena for wrestling.

In recent years, the mainland's economy has developed rapidly, while Taiwan's economy has stagnated, Taiwan has been surpassed by the mainland, and the original poor relatives have become rich overnight. But he is unwilling to admit the rise of the mainland in his heart, so he hopes to defeat Zhang Guan, a benchmark figure in the mainland sports industry, on the stage of the Olympic Games, and at the same time find a psychological comfort for himself.

……

On August 10, at 10:30 a.m., the opening match of Olympic tennis officially began on the main court of the National Tennis Center.

Zhang Guan is playing at home, of course, he is very popular, and Lu Yanxun, as a player from Taiwan, also received a lot of applause and cheers.

"Audience friends, the next is the opening match of the men's singles tennis event of the Olympic Games, which will be played by Zhang Guan against Lu Yanxun. Lu Yanxun's world ranking is not high, but since the end of last year's year-end Masters, Zhang Guan has not participated in tennis for eight months, and I don't know how Zhang Guan's current game status is, so Lu Yanxun can be regarded as a litmus test! Okay, the players on both sides are ready, the game is about to start, and Lu Yanxun takes the lead in serving! The commentator stopped talking, ready to enjoy the game in silence.

In the first ball, Lu Yanxun used a serve to the net and took the lead in scoring points; Then Lu Yanxun scored a serve, and the score was already 30-0; Immediately after the third ball, after the two held each other for nearly 10 beats, Lu Yanxun used his forehand to get another share, and the score was already 40-0 at this time. Lu Yanxun has already won the game point in the first game.

Zhang Guan then used a maneuver backhand to pull a ball back, and the score became 40-15. Immediately afterwards, Lu Yanxun sent an ace ball and took the lead to win the first game.

On the sidelines, the Taiwanese team leader began to applaud excitedly, as if victory was already in sight.

"I won the first game so easily, I said earlier, Zhang Guan has not participated in the competition for more than eight months, and the original good competitive state is long gone! The current Zhang Guan is no longer the Grand Slam player he used to be, and Lu Yanxun will definitely be able to win today! Let this group of mainland buns know that we are awesome! Lu Lu Yanxun, keep up the good work and break a game! ”

……

On the other side, Zhang Guan took a small half sip of water, and then looked at the scoreboard.

"Well, I have already conceded a game, everyone is Chinese, this can be regarded as worthy of the compatriots on the other side, and it is time to fight seriously." (To be continued.) )
