Chief Player of Film and Television World

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jin looked in the direction of her finger and saw two familiar figures.

One of them, a tall and thin man wearing a floral shirt and a pair of sunglasses covering his face, looked like Zhang Yang no matter how he looked.

As for the tall, fat man next to him who was wearing a baseball cap, a T-shirt, a small jacket, cropped pants and small sandals, even if he turned into ashes, he could still recognize him as Charlotte or Wang Duoyu.

Of course, if the opponent is Wang Duoyu, then the person next to him must not be Zhang Yang but Zhuang Qiang.

Xia Luo and Zhang Yang were looking around, as if looking for someone. After a while, they also found Zhang Jin and Qiu Ya in the crowd, who were looking at them.

The four people stared at each other.

Charlotte was a little embarrassed for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses.

"Qiu Ya, Zhang Jin! What a coincidence that I meet you here! The world is really small, haha!"

Zhang Jin and Qiu Ya looked at each other and saw the unconcealable smiles in each other's eyes.

"Yes, what a coincidence!" Qiu Ya said with a smile.

Zhang Jin was not so polite, and directly exposed Xia Luo's embarrassing cover-up: "Stop pretending, they are all here to see Ma Dongmei compete, is it a coincidence!"

"Don't talk nonsense, we are here to cheer for the Olympic team! Isn't that right, Zhang Yang?" Charlotte signaled with her eyes.

Zhang Yang nodded knowingly: "That's right, we are here to watch the Chinese Olympic team play. Come on, national football team!"

"Are you sure?" Zhang Jin looked at the two of them strangely.

"Of course!" the two said in unison, arms around each other, very confident!

Zhang Jin couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Then you will be disappointed, because the Chinese Olympic team did not make it to the Olympics at all. If you want to watch the Chinese Olympic team's games, I'm afraid you have to go back to China. Oh, no, the Chinese Olympic team was directly disbanded.

, then you don’t have to watch it.”

This is so fucking embarrassing!

Charlotte and Zhang Yang looked at each other.

"Why didn't you warn me earlier? Don't you think I'm embarrassed enough?"

"Brother, I didn't know you would suddenly mention the matter of the National Olympic Team. Besides, I didn't expect the National Football Team to not make it to the Olympics!"

"You don't have to think about it. You can guess it with your buttocks. The national football team will definitely not be able to enter the Olympics! Can they play? They definitely can't. You don't know if they don't have the ability!"

Xia Luo was furious and gave Zhang Yang a lecture with General Fan's famous sayings.

"Hey, I understand, brother." Zhang Yang could only nod in agreement, but he was muttering in his mind that the national football team had also entered the World Cup in the past two years, so how could he say he was incapable.

At this time, Qiu Ya raised her hand and glanced at her watch, and quickly interrupted them: "Stop chatting, hurry up, Dongmei's game is about to start, and you won't be able to enter the venue any later."

"Then let's go there quickly." Zhang Jin said.

Qiu Ya looked at Xia Luo and Zhang Yang: "Have you bought tickets? It's definitely too late to rush over now to buy tickets!"

Zhang Yang nodded quickly and said: "I bought it. We just bought the scalper tickets. We originally wanted the scalper to take us to the competition venue, but there were too many people and we lost them in a blink of an eye. Fortunately you are here, otherwise we would still have

I really don’t know what to do.”

Seeing that he was about to reveal all the details of the situation between the two of them, Charlotte quickly pushed Zhang Yang and interrupted him: "That's all nonsense, what about scalpers? We are asking foreigners for directions."

"Ask for directions? After searching for a long time, you still can't find a foreigner who knows the way? I don't think you guys are chatting with anyone."

"You said we can handle a few people with our English, but Athens seems to speak Greek, so we have to find a few foreigners who seem to know English to ask for directions?" Charlotte explained forcefully.

Zhang Jin said: "You are a big star, so why don't you go out without an agent? You don't even need a translator?"

Charlotte said: "I ran out secretly to take a vacation for myself, and I brought someone with me and asked for a translator, so I couldn't expose myself? Besides, have you ever heard of a saying that calls for a trip that just goes away?

"

"Then you might as well say that the world is so big and I want to see it." Zhang Jin teased casually.

Charlotte looked at him in surprise: "What you said is very full of future literary and artistic sentiments!"

While talking, the four of them arrived at the venue for the Olympic tennis competition. After showing their tickets, they entered the venue together.

There were not many spectators present, and the attendance rate was at least 80%. This is where tennis is relatively developed and popular in Europe and the United States.

But what is surprising is that at this game, we actually saw the faces of many of our own people.

After asking, I found out that in yesterday's tennis women's doubles final, the Chinese women's team Li Ting and Sun Tiantian relied on their own efforts and never gave up. They went all the way and defeated one pair of super-big names. The mythical version.

Won the championship!

This extraordinary honor aroused the enthusiasm of the people at the Olympic Games and the people of the motherland thousands of miles away!

So when they learned that there were female players from the national team competing in today's quarter-finals, they all called their friends to come and cheer!

"It's great that so many people came to cheer for Dongmei!" Qiu Ya said happily.

"Are there many? There are only about a hundred people. There are many people in the district!" Charlotte said deliberately.

Qiu Ya defended Ma Dongmei and said, "As you said, if you come to Athens for a concert, there will only be a hundred people coming."

The four of them came to their seats and sat down. Xia Luo and Zhang Yang happened to be on the left hand side of the front row of Zhang Jin and Qiu Ya.

"Fate!" Charlotte turned around and winked at Qiu Ya.

"Hey, Charlotte, do you know who Dongmei's opponent is today?" Qiu Ya asked.

"I don't know." Charlotte turned and asked Zhang Yang, "Who is Ma Dongmei's opponent in this match?"

Zhang Yang replied: "Brother, my opponent this time is Ai Sugiyama."

"Sugiyama Ai? The name sounds like a little Japan, right?" Charlotte said, "Then Ma Dongmei will win for sure. She has liked to fight Japanese since she was a child, and she is very energetic!"

"You know this as well?"

"Can I not know? She asked me to pretend to be a Japanese every time she replied! I am so handsome, but she said I looked like a traitor translator! It was all the fault of Bald Chen and Zhu Zhengqi. If it hadn't been for them

After performing in that Spring Festival Gala skit, could I have experienced this?" Charlotte couldn't help but get angry when she mentioned this incident.

Poof! All three people present burst out laughing!

"The Protagonist and Supporting Actors" from the 1990 Spring Festival Gala is indeed a classic sketch, it is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!

Zhang Yang suddenly said: "Brother, look, Ma Dongmei is out!"

Charlotte raised her eyes and said, "This Ma Dongmei just plays tennis. Why is she wearing such a short skirt? She's not afraid of being exposed!"

"Brother, that's an outer skirt worn with sports shorts."

"How can I not know about this? I was just talking casually!" Charlotte glared at him angrily.

Qiu Ya took advantage of the fact that the game hadn't started yet, put her hands around her mouth to form a trumpet and shouted loudly: "Hi! Dongmei, Dongmei! We are here, and Charlotte is here too!"

Being brought along like this by Qiu Ya, Xia Luo was a little helpless and couldn't say anything.

Ma Dongmei, who was discussing with the coaching staff, turned her head and looked towards them, smiled and waved.

"Ma Dongmei! Come on! We are all optimistic about you!"

Zhang Yang stood up and waved his hands, and when Xia Luo wasn't paying attention, he pointed at him crazily to signal to Ma Dongmei.

"Sit down! What are you talking about? It's not embarrassing!" Charlotte turned to one side, not forgetting Ma Dongmei's side and raising her hand to pull Zhang Yang to his seat.

Ma Dongmei felt a little surprised and happy when she saw Charlotte sitting in the audience. She didn't expect that Charlotte actually came to watch her game.

"... Dear viewers in front of the TV, hello everyone! TV5 brings you the live broadcast of the quarter-finals of the women's singles tennis event at the Athens Olympics. I am the on-site commentator Ning Xin, and this person next to me is my partner

, Guidance He, former national tennis coach, Guidance He, would like to say hello to everyone."

"Hello, audience friends!"

"Okay, Director He, before the game starts, let's give the audience a brief introduction to today's game..."

Xihong City, a certain employee compound, in Xia Luo's old house.

A group of grandparents from the neighborhood sat in front of the large color screen TV in the living room. The people sitting in the middle seat were none other than Charlotte's mother and Dongmei's mother.

"Just right, just right! The game hasn't started yet, come on, come on, eat the fruit, it's just been washed!"

"That's right, eat the fruit and chat while you eat. If you have anything you don't understand later, you can ask me and I will answer it for you."

Charlotte's mother and Dongmei's mother laughed and said while passing out fruits.

While Ning Xin and Director He were giving a brief introduction to the game, the camera panned around the scene and suddenly paused. Charlotte's big face with squinting eyes looking down at the court suddenly appeared on the TV screen.

"Ouch!" The adults and aunts in the living room said in unison.

Xia Luo's mother was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "I said, how could this kid not watch Dongmei's game? Good guy, he actually flew directly to the scene without taking his mother with me, hum!"

"Don't be angry, don't be angry! When Charlotte comes home, you can teach him a lesson. Let's just watch the game now!" Dongmei's mother quickly comforted her.

"That's right, it's important to watch the game. I'm here just for Dongmei today!"

"Our national team won the women's doubles tennis championship yesterday. In today's women's singles competition, Dongmei can't lag behind!"

"Yes, yes! Everyone hopes that Dongmei can bring glory to our country!"

Dongmei's mother raised her hand and assured everyone: "Don't worry, I can't guarantee that Dongmei will win the championship, but I guarantee that she will try her best. I dare say that there is no better women's singles player in domestic tennis than Dongmei.

Dongmei has been tested in the international majors, yes, Grand Slam competitions for several consecutive years. WTA knows it, right? It is also the world ranking. Dongmei ranked 46th last year. She is amazing!

"

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded in praise.

Ranked 46 in the world, really good!

"Dongmei's level is much better than that of the national football team!" an uncle exclaimed.

There was a burst of praise in the living room soon, but it soon shifted to discussing Ma Dongmei's marriage and having children.

A discussion about a tennis match came from the TV, as if it was the background music for this group of people chatting.

"...Okay, after the brief introduction just now, we all know that this time our opponent Ai Sugiyama defeated my country's Zheng Jie, Ukraine's Perebinis and Croatia's Sprem in the first three rounds. The three players are not weak."

"Yes, except for injuries, the players who can be selected to participate in the Olympic Games and compete for the country will not be weak. You look like Serena Williams of the United States. She is amazing. How many Grand Slams did she win last year?

Champion, ranked fourth in the world, but when he faced French star Pierce in the third round, he still lost to him."

"Yes, that's right. So the game is about whoever performs better on the spot will win. There is a gap in strength, but it doesn't have such a big impact. So, Director He, do you think Ma Dongmei can win this game?

"

"I am personally very optimistic about Ma Dongmei. I have watched her previous games and have known about her before. As the highest-ranked female player in the domestic WTA, she has comprehensive skills, tenacious playing style, is good at defense, and is good at fighting.

The fast-break Ai Sugiyama can be said to have two opposite styles, and I am still looking forward to this game between the two of them."

"Listening to what you said, their struggle is like a spear and a shield. I believe it will be very exciting."

Not long after, the game officially started.

"Okay, let's start the game. In the first game of the first set, Ai Sugiyama will serve. What method will she use?"

Ma Dongmei's attention was focused on her opponent. Perhaps it was because Charlotte came to watch her play for the first time, which made her feel a little nervous. The palms of her hands holding the racket could not help but sweat.

Distractions that rarely appeared during competitions came to her mind one after another, making it difficult for her to fully concentrate!

"What on earth am I thinking about? I should be..."

Bang!

The sound of a racket hitting a tennis ball immediately interrupted Ma Dongmei's thoughts. When she came to her senses, the tennis ball had flown over the net and landed next to her!

Although there was a moment of confusion, fortunately the ball speed was not very fast. Ma Dongmei's muscle memory developed over many years allowed her body to step to the side before her head commanded, and hit the ball back with her backhand!

"Oops! Ma Dongmei seems to be a little distracted, and the ball is a little floaty in return. Sugiyama Ai is going to the net to volley. This is her favorite way to score fast breaks!" Coach He in the commentary box was a little surprised, "I was distracted during the game, this is really

It shouldn’t be!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Sugiyama Ai successfully volleyed and scored the first point!

"Perhaps it is the first time for Ma Dongmei to enter the quarterfinals of the Olympic Games. Player Ma Dongmei may be under a lot of psychological pressure." Ning Xin said at the side.

"It's not impossible. Grand Slam and Olympic competitions are different. One is personal honor and the other is national honor. Most people will have psychological pressure. After all, they shoulder the expectations of the people across the country." Director He nodded.

Because of her low-level mistakes, she lost one share, which made Ma Dongmei very upset and blamed herself. She originally wanted to show herself well in front of Charlotte, but this was not going to work!

No matter how big the world is, I have seen it. I have participated in Wimbledon, Australian Open, French Open, and US Open. It is not my first time to enter the quarterfinals of a world-class competition, so there is nothing to be nervous about!

Get serious, Ma Dongmei! You can do it!

Before serving in the second game, Ma Dongmei mentally cheered herself up!
