Tennis: He's so obedient!

Chapter 63 The Trophy Left in the Tennis Club (Please Read On)

I entered a private room in the school cafeteria.

To be honest, Jiang Hong had spent five years in this school in both of his lives, but he had never been to this place before!
The principal was sitting in the private room. He smiled when he saw Jiang Hong.

"Xiao Jiang, I didn't expect you to achieve results so quickly. You're truly a young hero!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hong humbly replied, "We were lucky this time; no players with particularly high rankings participated!"

Upon hearing this, the principal shook his head: "Xiao Jiang, that's not being honest. I've heard that the athlete you're playing against in the finals is even stronger than our national team's main players!"

To be honest, Jiang Hong's achievements were a pleasant surprise for the principal.

"This is a celebration banquet for you. Although it may not be as high-class as a big hotel, it still has some unique features!" The principal pushed the menu in front of Jiang Hong.

After some initial refusals, the principal immediately ordered the kitchen to serve the dishes!
In no time, the table was full of dishes!

Qin Jian poured himself a glass of wine and raised it.

"Xiao Jiang, I wish you the same great results in your future competitions as you have this time!"

Jiang Hong poured himself a drink, saying, "Thank you for Director Qin's kind words."

"Xiao Jiang, you're an adult now, it's time to have a drink!" Qin Jian said, seeing Jiang Hong's beverage.

Jiang Hong remained calm. "I'm sorry, Director Qin, but as an athlete, I can't drink alcohol!"

Before Qin Jian could say anything, the principal immediately interrupted him.

"Alright, Xiao Jiang is right to be strict with himself. His future is limitless!"

"Alright, let's have a drink!"

After the principal spoke, Qin Jian naturally couldn't say anything.

After eating!
"Xiao Jiang, is there anything else you need? If there's anything the school can do to help, we definitely won't refuse!" the principal said with a smile.

Jiang Hong hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's like this, I started my tennis journey in our school's tennis club, so I want to leave the trophy from this competition in the tennis club!"

Upon hearing this, the principal's eyes lit up instantly.

After all, staying in the tennis club is the same as staying in school, right?

Frankly speaking, the school has already given Jiang Hong so much sponsorship, it's practically the most they could give him.

Therefore, it's practically impossible to offer Jiang Hong any further professional assistance.

Whether in his past life or now, Jiang Hong started playing tennis in a tennis club.

Besides, he believed that this 25K championship trophy wouldn't be a very big trophy for him.

Besides, they've already received so much money, so exchanging it for a trophy isn't a big deal.

The principal looked at Jiang Hong and nodded. This child is really sentimental!

With a wave of his hand, he immediately said, "Little Jiang, don't worry, I'll arrange a showroom for the tennis club later!"

……

"Hmm? He doesn't look much different from before!" Shen Xiaoyu circled around Jiang Hong twice, rubbing her chin as she muttered.

When Su Cheng found out about Jiang Hong's flight, she called him in the afternoon and summoned him to the playground.

They said they wanted to supervise him and prevent him from slacking off in training after winning the championship.

When Shen Xiaoyu heard that Jiang Hong was going to training, she begged and pleaded with Su Cheng to come and join in the fun.

Jiang Hong rolled his eyes. "Hey Shen Xiaoyu, even though I know I'm handsome, I'll still feel embarrassed if you keep staring at me like that?"

Snapped!
Shen Xiaoyu suddenly clapped her hands and said in surprise.

"I know what's different about you; your skin is a bit special!"

Although Shen Xiaoyu wanted to say a few more jokes, Su Cheng grabbed her by the back of the collar and pulled her away.

"Alright, stop causing trouble here. Jiang Hong still needs to train!"

Shen Xiaoyu then stuck out her tongue and quieted down. Because it was too late, Jiang Hong only conducted some simple training.

By the time we finished the serving practice, it was already getting dark.

[800/800]

"Okay, it's over!"

Jiang Hong let out a breath and put down his racket.

Shen Xiaoyu, who was standing to the side, yawned, and her eyes lit up immediately when she heard this.

"It's finally over, so boring!"

To be honest, most of the training content is very boring, and not many people will watch it seriously!
Su Cheng ignored Shen Xiaoyu, walked up to Jiang Hong, coughed, and then said.

"Jiang Hong, it's like this, I have to go back for a couple of days, so I won't be able to train you!"

Although Su Cheng really didn't want to go back, he had no choice but to go back. If Jiang Hong found someone else to train him, there was nothing he could do!

"Oh, you're coming back to school after the semester starts?" Jiang Hong didn't think too much about it, since it's normal to go home after the final exams.

Su Cheng immediately waved her hand, "No, I'll go back for about two or three days, then I'll come out to do a summer job!"

Jiang Hong frowned and said doubtfully, "Your salary as my caddie isn't low either."

“But I need to go back for a few days, and your training these past two days…” Su Cheng shook her head, though she didn’t finish her sentence, the meaning was already clear.

Jiang Hong shrugged and said with a smile, "I also need to go home for a couple of days, and then I'll go back to school for training in two or three days!"

Su Cheng instantly felt a huge weight lifted off her shoulders!
When Jiang Hong returned to the dormitory, it was already empty.

He knew in advance that his roommates had already gone home.

Li Hua's family cut off his living expenses after his exams, forcing him to go home early.

Before leaving, he asked Jiang Hong to send the championship photo to the group so he could post it on his social media to show off.

Jiang Hong turned on his computer and began working on his career plan for the year.

The next step, needless to say, is the ATP 75K Challenger Tournament to be held in Wuhan on July 23.

Besides earning points, this Challenger tournament also serves as a prelude to the China Open, so the champion of this Challenger tournament will receive a wildcard entry to the main draw of the Open.

As for the wildcards that the China Open itself prepared for domestic players, Jiang Hong had no illusions.

After all, he is still a free agent outside the system.

Even if there are wildcards, they are given to national team players and players within the system first.

A wildcard entry for the qualifying rounds is possible, but Jiang Hong won't pin his hopes on anyone else.

Challenger tournaments may also feature warm-up matches featuring players of tour level.

If Jiang Hong fails to win the Wuhan Challenger and still wants to participate in the China Open, then...

At that point, the only option left is to go abroad to participate in challenge and hope tournaments to rack up points.

It's important to know that even for qualifying rounds of ATP 250 tournaments, you need to be ranked in the top 250 of the ATP rankings!

Jiang Hong had to make plans early!
First, we can rule out Europe and America, since they are too far away and the cost of competing there would be too high. If we don't perform well in a particular match, we might lose money. Even if we achieve our desired results without any surprises, we would only barely break even.

As a free agent, Jiang Hong cannot ignore these factors!

Therefore, if Jiang Hong wants to score points, the most suitable place is Asia.

Japan and South Korea are relatively developed, so they have more professional tennis tournaments.

If he starts racking up points, Jiang Hong will have to transform into a high-stakes player and play at a high intensity.

If all goes well, Jiang Hong should be able to climb enough in the rankings before the China Open starts!
