Tennis: He's so obedient!

Chapter 127 ATP Rankings Rise, Black Stones Transform into White Stones (Please Subscribe)
After the dinner, Jiang Hong returned to his room.

First, I considered what I had gained from this China Open.

The China Open champion receives 175 ranking points and a prize of $6.92.

Jiang Hong's total score is 287.

I opened the ATP official website and saw that my current ranking had reached 154.

Tomorrow is the day the ATP website updates its rankings, and I don't know if my ranking will change.

After all, the points earned this week in the previous year will be deducted a year later.

Therefore, for many players, if they have accumulated a lot of points in a certain period of the previous year, the pressure to maintain those points in the following year will be immense.

It is common for a company to be ranked at the top a week ago, only to drop by more than ten places a week later.

Furthermore, with Jiang Hong currently ranked 154, it's not impossible for her to skip the qualifying rounds and qualify for the Australian Open main draw if she participates in a few more tournaments before the Australian Open.

However, the higher you go in the rankings, the more difficult it becomes. For example, Jiang Hong is currently 129 points behind 101st place. Even if Jiang Hong wins another runner-up title at the China Open, she still won't be able to catch up, and that's assuming her opponent doesn't score any points.

If you're ranked low, 100 points can easily put you one or two hundred places ahead.

Although it was already evening, Jiang Hong was still in good spirits and didn't feel sleepy at all.

Then I turned on my computer, since I hadn't uploaded the group photo with my fellow forum members today yet!
As soon as the computer was turned on, a news article popped up in a corner.

Jiang Hongyong wins ATP Tour title, making history for Chinese tennis!

In the past, Jiang Hong had always hated these pop-up ads, but this time he found them a little more agreeable.

Jiang Hong opened his browser and logged into Tieba, only to find that the red dots on his profile had exceeded the limit.

Looks like my private messages have exploded!
Jiang Hong glanced at it briefly.

Good heavens, a photo of a scantily clad female bodhisattva, a long-treasured mysterious code, and an unidentified creature that wants to have Jiang Hong's baby...

Jiang Hong's lips twitched. Sure enough, things were much more unrestrained at the beginning of the century!

If this happened more than a decade or two later, the account would probably have been banned hundreds of times already.

When Jiang Hong tried to search for tennis forums, he found that the search bar was filled with entries related to him.

The most popular post after entering the forum.

[A promise made in the open: Jiang Hong will run naked if he wins the China Open! (Images) (Images)]

Jiang Hong clicked on it and saw a nude photo with the face and key parts blurred.

Judging from the background, it appears to be in a dimly lit place.

It turns out the other party had made a sarcastic comment under Jiang Hong's original post.

After Jiang Hong won the championship, other netizens immediately rushed over to criticize him.

This netizen was also impressed by Jiang Hong's performance in this match.

The chicken feet are removed, and the black pieces transform into white pieces.

And that very night, he went straight to fulfill his promise, finding an empty alleyway to make his promise to run naked.

There were also many comments from netizens watching the spectacle.

"You little lord, how dare you provoke God Jiang! You've been punished by the gods now. You'd better convert to the Jiang Clan as soon as possible!"

"Laughing at the joke, not at the person, OP is a real man!"

"Wow, they really are streaking! I thought they were just joking!"

Jiang Hong silently gave the poster a thumbs up. This world is sorely lacking in honest people like him!
The second hot post was also about Jiang Hong.

It turns out that the person who managed to snag the racket that Jiang Hong threw was showing off in the post.

This sparked envy and jealousy among netizens. Putting aside the value of the racket itself, Jiang Hong's autograph alone is enough to make people's hearts flutter.

Someone even offered 10,000 yuan to sell it to the poster, but the poster ultimately refused. [China Open Finals, a lucky victory! Please rate this post, fellow forum members! (Jiang Hong raising the trophy) (Group photo with forum members)]

Greatness needs no words, it must be fully expressed!

"Little Jiang, you're so handsome, are you crazy?!"

"Little Jiang, my Little Jiang, hehehe..."

"I was there, and it was so amazing! I've decided to pick up my tennis hobby again after a three-year hiatus!"

"I fell in love with tennis because of Xiao Jiang, he's so inspiring!"

"Little Jiang, Little Jiang, you've already won the China Open, when are you going to become number one in Asia?!"

Jiang Hong has seen many people say that he made them pick up their rackets again or that he has come to love tennis because of him.

He felt a sense of fulfilling accomplishment.

The joy that others experience from liking what they love is difficult to describe simply.

As for the Grand Slam, that's his future goal.

As time went on, Jiang Hong felt increasingly tired. The fatigue that had been suppressed by the excitement of the competition erupted like a volcano!
Jiang Hong collapsed onto the bed and quickly lost consciousness.

……

"we are the champion!"

The next day, the People's Daily actually cut out a segment and used it for Jiang Hong's match.
The photo also included one of Jiang Hong holding the trophy and beaming with pride as he won the championship in a stadium with tens of thousands of people.

"This is a historic breakthrough for Chinese tennis, and it also marks the vigorous development of my country's sports industry..."

Many people who don't care about sports learned about Jiang Hong's name for the first time.

In addition, the morning news also reported that Jiang Hong had won the championship.

Although not as prominent as the evening news, the influence of morning news should not be underestimated.

The program dedicated half a minute to reporting on the match, featuring the full video of Jiang Hong's final goal in the game against Gonzalez.

Sports Weekly even used Jiang Hong as the cover of this issue, which was then distributed to newsstands all over the country.

Unlike the People's Daily, which chose a photo of Jiang Hong holding the trophy, Sports Weekly chose a photo of Jiang Hong taking a step and volleying during the match, leaping into the air and swinging his racket.

He exudes an aura of dominance and confidence!

It has to be said that the product's appearance is very important; this issue saw a small sales surge.

Many girls bought "Sports Weekly" after seeing Jiang Hong's cover and cut out the cover to use as postcards!
The cover also had a short title.

"Hope Tournament, Challenge Tournament, Tournament, what surprise will Jiang Hong bring us next?"

This question has sparked countless thoughts among tennis enthusiasts.

The Grand Slam is just too far away. As of now, the Grand Slam quarterfinals are like an insurmountable barrier in front of all Asian players.

So far, the best result for both Srichaphan and Lee Hyung-taek is the round of 16!
The only quarterfinal appearance was achieved by Japan's Shuzo Matsuoka at Wimbledon in 1995, where Matsuoka was eliminated after facing Pete Sampras in the quarterfinals.

Although the Gold Series is indeed of a higher level than the China Open, Chinese fans have already set their sights on something even higher.

Perhaps Jiang Hong will have the chance to touch the Masters trophy during his professional career!
In fact, no Asian player has won the Masters title until 2025.

His best result was runner-up, which was Kei Nishikori's second place finish.

In addition to offline print newspapers, Jiang Hong also used online portals as a source of traffic.

It's safe to say that the hottest word during this period is "Jiang Hong".

This has led to a lot of resentment among celebrities who have recently released movies or albums.

Why do you, an athlete, need so much attention?
