Chapter 512 Zhang Yiyang's Enemy

Zhang Yifan smiled sweetly and said, "You all want to register, I will register too."

In fact, she didn't have this idea. Although she loved tennis, due to her own limitations, she knew that she could not embark on a professional path, and even her brother's semi-professional path was not realistic.

However, if even Du Xinghe wants to register as a professional golfer, it would be nice for her to join in the fun. Anyway, the person in charge of the Internet Association in Fuwan has a good relationship with her family, which can provide them with great convenience for registration.

If she becomes a professional golfer, even if she doesn't play singles, it will be quite interesting to play professional mixed doubles matches with Du Xinghe. With Du Xinghe's strength, coupled with her tactics and scheduling, they can easily achieve results in the mixed doubles field.

Du Xinghe was a little moved by the Zhang brothers and sisters. Registering professional players does not suffer much loss for him. Even if he becomes a superstar in the music industry in the future, such an experience will not be criticized by the media. Even if he achieves certain results in the tennis world, it will add to his halo for fans to worship.

The most important thing is that he really wants to feel the stimulation of fighting against high-level players. Anyone who has such strong physical conditions will want to challenge a higher level.

After thinking about it, Du Xinghe said to Zhang Yiyang: "What materials do you need to provide for registration?"

When Zhang Yifan saw that Du Xinghe actually agreed, he said happily: "You don't have to worry about this. Mr. Du, just let my brother do it. As long as we can win the mixed doubles championship in this Youth Cup, you will definitely be able to register!"

Zhang Yiyang smiled and said, "Actually, you should apply for a men's singles again. With your strength, Mr. Du, winning the men's singles championship is easy."

What Zhang Yiyang said is true. He has been the men's singles champion of the two Fuwan Youth Cups. Du Xinghe tortured him, to put it bluntly, just like to abuse his grandson. With such strength, let alone the Fuwan Youth Cup, Du Xinghe can easily win the championship even in the national youth amateur competition. Du Xinghe's strength is completely professional. And he is also a very high-level professional player level.

Zhang Yifan sighed and said, "It's true. Unfortunately, the registration has been over now and the schedule has been arranged. It would be great if Mr. Du signed up for the Youth Cup men's singles competition earlier. If he wins the championship, he will have more sufficient conditions to register for a professional player."

Zhang Yiyang's eyes suddenly lit up. He said to Zhang Yifan: "The registration for the Fuwan Championship has not yet ended. Otherwise... let's get a wild card for Mr. Du and let him directly participate in the men's singles qualifiers of the championship?"

Zhang Yifan moved the sports drink he was drinking away from his mouth, raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhang Yiyang. He asked: "Hasn't all 16 wild cards been issued? How can I get wild cards?"

Zhang Yiyang said loudly: "It's been sent after the sending, but there must be wild card players who will not participate in the competition. Let the organizing committee ask, see who is injured or something, and give up the wild card qualification, so let the organizing committee send another one again."

Seeing that the Zhang brothers and sisters were talking on their own, Du Xinghe couldn't even get into the mouth, so he couldn't help saying, "No need to be so troublesome..."

Du Xinghe was only halfway through his speech, and was immediately interrupted by Zhang Yiyang and said, "No trouble, Mr. Du, if you want to participate in the Fuwan Championship, you will definitely make a big splash!"

Zheng Sai, who was practicing football at the adjacent field next to him, happened to walk to the side field area, only seven or eight meters away from Zhang Yiyang and the others. He heard Zhang Yiyang's loud voice. When he looked here, he saw Zhang Yiyang and Zhang Yifan urging Du Xinghe to participate in the competition. Zheng Sai showed an unhappy and disdainful expression and walked away coldly.

For the Zhang brothers and sisters, professional players like Zheng Sai have heard of them before they came to participate in the Fuwan Championship. After all, these professional players are not separate individuals. In the Chinese tennis circle, there are factions among professional players. Basically, every professional player has some friends and brothers around them.

Zheng Sai has a junior brother, who is also led by Liu Wangsong, the old man who is currently training Zheng Sai. The junior brother is Lu Heng, and Zheng Sai is a fellow He-Nan villager. He has only transferred to a professional player at the beginning of this year.

Because of the low professional points, Lu Heng was not qualified to directly sign up for the Fuwan Championship at the Atp250 level. However, their coach Liu Wangsong applied for a wild card for Lu Heng, and also applied for wild card for Zheng Sai's other two junior brothers who had just changed to professional players, with a total of three.

Wild cards for tournaments like this are not something that anyone can apply for. After all, there are only so many wild cards, far fewer than those who are not qualified to participate. Therefore, there is a principle for the organizing committee to issue wild cards, which is to exchange interests.

This year's Fuwan Championship will be issued a total of 16 wild cards, of which 6 of which are assigned to China National Netball Association. The Internet Association and the Internet Association will cooperate with the Internet Association to issue wild cards to foreign players. Of course, this is not a white-haired one. Countries that accept wild cards will also be given the same number of wild cards to Chinese players when holding the corresponding level of championship.

In addition to the 6 wild cards given to the Netcom Association, there are 10 wild cards that were decided by the regional tennis association and the organizing committee. These wild cards are not necessarily issued to domestic players.

If there are outstanding players abroad, the organizing committee will also issue wild cards to them. Moreover, such wild cards do not need to participate in the qualifying competition and directly enter the main competition.

This kind of distribution targets are concentrated on the kind of tennis big names. They were recovering from injuries for one or two years and had not participated in professional competitions, so they did not have enough points and were not qualified to participate. For such stars with great viewing guarantees and appeal, the organizing committee will not only issue wild cards, but also provide the other party with corresponding appearance fees. Just like those players ranked in the top fifteen in the world will receive the appearance fees when participating in many low-level competitions. They not only come to the competition, but also perform.

Unfortunately, this year's Fuwan Championship did not invite such superstars. I have contacted several agents of such stars before, but they all declined the Fuwan Championship under the pretext of recuperation. This also shows that the influence of the Fuwan Championship is actually very small, and they are not interested in running over to compete from afar.

The 10 wild cards issued by the Fuwan Network Association Conference this time can only be issued to domestic players.

Of course, this kind of distribution is also subject to conditions, and it does not mean that anyone who applies will give it.

For those who have achieved results in China, but may have been in the past year due to recovery or other reasons for participating in the competition for fewer competitions and insufficient points, the organizing committee will also give priority to contacting players. For their methods, wild cards are also wild cards for the main competition and do not need to participate in the qualifying round.

(The professional tennis points in this plane are calculated based on weekly, that is, the total number of points in the past 52 weeks to rank the world rankings. There will be changes every week. If you have not participated in the past 52 weeks, the players' points will be cleared and you will not be eligible to participate in some championships.)

This year, two veterans have obtained such wild cards. However, these two wild cards in the main competition are not included in the 10 qualifying wild cards.

The recipients of the qualifying competition wild card are usually newcomers who have only changed their careers for a short time and have not enough points, but they have more potential.

Especially for newcomers recommended by the brokerage team of a relatively big brand in the tennis world, the organizing committee will give priority to issuing wild cards. Of course, the conditions for this distribution are that those big-name players from the economic team will also come to participate. If the big-name players do not participate, only newcomers will be sent to participate, and the organizing committee of the Fu Championship will not give face to those teams. They will definitely not be able to do wild cards.

This time, when Zheng Sai’s coach Liu Wangsong applied for wild cards for Lu Heng and two other newcomers, the exchange condition was that Zheng Sai came to participate.

Although Zheng Sai is only ranked sixth in China and is not yet considered the top player, as the most popular tennis star in China, Zheng Sai is definitely a guarantee of ratings.

He is the second Chinese to win the Grand Slam youth group in the Central Open, the first Chinese to win the Grand Slam youth group in the Australian Open, and has also achieved good results in other Grand Slam youth groups, so he has always been known as the future star of China's tennis.

Liu Wangsong exchanged Zheng Sai for three play-off wild cards. Although he was a bit of a big talk, after all, the most players in front of Zheng Sai were only exchanged for two qualifying wild cards for his junior brothers. However, after all, Zheng Sai's popularity is here, and it is not too much to ask for three.

In fact, it is very inappropriate to hold the Fortune Championship at this time. Because the French Open starts at the end of May or June every year. At the beginning of May, most top players and aspiring players will participate in clay court championships similar to French Open venues to adapt to clay court games. Few people play plastic hard court games this season.

The Fu Championship was held at this time, because there are nearly 10 competitions with the same venue specifications in China. It is impossible for all such plastic hard field competitions to be concentrated before the Central Open, and give players the practice to adapt to the venue.

After one year of distribution, there will be a competition for this type of plastic venue every month.

The Atp250 level of the Fortune Championship is not very high, and it cannot be held in September before the opening of the Central Committee, so it can only be held before the five-minute month stuck in the French Open.

You should know that some lower-level Atp100 or Atp50 tournaments even overlap with the Grand Slam competition time, such competitions will not attract high-level players to participate.

Championships like the Fortune Championship that do not overlap with the Grand Slam time have the opportunity to attract some top players, such as those who are very bad at clay court games and cannot get good results on clay courts, will choose to participate in other types of venue competitions.

However, China's top players are quite suitable for clay court games, so the only top five men's singles players in China are Zhang Di, the leader and third-ranked Wu Tailong, who is ranked in this Fu Championship. The other players' plans are to go to Europe to participate in the dirt competition, and there is no schedule for the Fu Championship.

Zhang Di is a local from Fuwan. He made his official career in the Fu Championships. He has a deep complex about Fu Championships.

In the past seven years, Zhang Di has participated in the Welfare Championships six times and won three times. This can be said to be his blessing. So even if he wants to prepare for a more important clay competition, he usually will not miss this event that has special significance to him. What's more, the organizing committee will provide him with a generous appearance fee in recent years, including the championship bonus and appearance fee, and the total value is higher than entering the French Open's top 16. How could he miss such a rich game?

Like Zhang Di, Wu Taelong also likes to participate in the Football Championship because he is nearly two meters tall and is the same as Zhang Yiyang. He is a super heavy-bolt serve player. In the clay court, he has almost no room for performance. He is usually eliminated early after playing one or two rounds, so he never attaches importance to the French Open, and even if he pays attention, it is meaningless. He sometimes doesn't even participate in French Open competitions. He doesn't participate in other clay court games. He is a player who specializes in grassland and hard courts.

Wu Tailong also received the appearance fee when he came to participate in the Fu Championships. Even though he was only 35th in the world, his reputation as "the third brother in China (the third in China)" is still very famous, and his violent style is very popular with the audience and is also guaranteed to watch. Therefore, the organizing committee has to give him the appearance fee to ensure that he can make the event in the Fu Championships.

This year, the remaining Chinese contestants are Zheng Sai, who ranked the highest in China. However, the organizing committee did not provide Zheng Sai with the appearance fee. Because when the organizing committee contacted Zheng Sai to participate at the beginning of the year, he was rejected by Zheng Sai's team.

Zheng Sai was originally going to prepare for the clay season and went to Europe to participate in clay courts. At that time, he signed up for the Atp250 clay championship to be held in Naples, Italy in the same period this May, but he received a notice two months ago. There was a chaos in Naples. The safety of the event was a problem. This year's Naples Championship was cancelled by the International Network.

Zheng Sai had no match to play, so he reconsidered the Fuwan Championship. At that time, Liu Wangsong saw that there were not many famous domestic players in this Fu's Championship, and Zheng Sai was considered a witty figure in this competition. Then he "opened his mouth" and asked the organizing committee to give them three qualifying wild cards.

Taking into account Zheng Sai's influence and the waived appearance fee to participate, the organizing committee agreed to Liu Wangsong's request and decided to issue qualifying wild cards to Zheng Sai's three junior brothers. At that time, these three wild cards happened to be the last three wild cards that had not been issued yet, so they all agreed to Liu Wangsong.

Less than a week after the organizing committee made this decision, Zhang Yiyang was "unbearable" and had the idea of ​​participating in a professional competition. His family is the largest sponsor of the Fu Championship. He wants to participate. How could the organizing committee give him wild card without exception? However, after all the wild cards have been issued, it is impossible to get a wild card out of thin air, so the organizing committee could only take back one wild card from the players who have issued the wild card.

After some choice, the organizing committee took back one of the three wild cards sent to Liu Wangsong and transferred them to Zhang Yiyang. The one that was taken back was from Zheng Sai's fellow villager and junior brother Lu Heng.

Zhang Yiyang didn't know the inside story about this matter. He didn't know that his wild card was taken back from someone else, because in order to please him, the eldest son of the Zhang family, the officials of the organizing committee said that there was a wild card left, so they sent it to him.

He also emphasized that this is the last wild card. It was said that Zhang Yiyang was lucky and that if he was a few days later, there would be no wild card. But in fact, he was reminding Zhang Yiyang not to ask the organizing committee for wild card anymore, because the organizing committee really didn't want to do such offending things.

Zhang Yiyang has a straightforward and simple personality, so he naturally doesn't know what the organizing committee means, because every year he watches the competition, he will find that some qualifying players give up the competition. He thinks that those qualifying players are also wild card players. But in fact, most of the qualifying players who give up the competition do not need wild card to participate, but their points have reached the standard for participating in the qualifying competition. He signed up before, but later he was temporarily injured or had other plans, so he gave up the competition.

Those who really use wild cards to enter the qualifying round are all newcomers who cherish this kind of opportunity to participate. Few of them take the initiative to give up the round. Even if they suffer minor injuries, they will stick to the round to gain valuable experience.

It is conceivable how disappointed a newcomer starts to obtain a wild card and then loses his qualification for a wild card.

Liu Wangsong was a coach who cherished his apprentice very much. He was furious about Lu Heng's wild card being taken back and almost made a big fuss in the organizing committee.

The organizing committee knew that it was ashamed of this matter. Integrity is the foundation of the society in this plane. The organizing committee first agreed to Liu Wangsong, and then went back on his word. This is of course a big mistake. If this matter is exposed by the media, the reputation of the Fu Championship may be stinking. Therefore, the organizing committee apologized to Liu Wangsong and Lu Heng in a sincere way.

In addition, the organizing committee promised to issue Lu Heng a wild card to directly participate in the main competition next year, and to provide Liu Wangsong's tennis team with three wild cards for the qualification competition next year, regardless of whether Zheng Sai participates next year.

This dispelled Liu Wangsong's anger.

Later, Liu Wangsong and the organizing committee went to Zhengzhou to apologize to him and asked why the organizing committee went back on their word.

The official had no choice but to tell me about Zhang Yiyang, the eldest son of the Zhang family, wanted a wild card. The official of the organizing committee knew the background of the Zhang family in Fuwan.

Although it is not the most orthodox lineage of the Zhang royal family, the Zhang family in Fuwan is also one of the five ranks of the Zhang family, and its status in the south is second only to that of the Zhang royal family itself.

How could the organizing committee offend such a prominent young man?

Not to mention the organizing committee of the Fu Championship, even the Fuwan Internet Association and even the China Internet Association have to sell this young master for a face.

Who made the China Internet Association itself a foundation of Zhang He Yaping, the mother of the country?

After Liu Wangsong learned this fact, he finally felt relieved. He understood and understood the difficulties of the organizing committee and accepted the apology from the organizing committee.

Originally, after Lu Heng was regained his wild card qualification, as Lu Heng's good brother, Zheng Sai was so angry that he wanted to withdraw from the competition "due to injury". Later, Liu Wangsong persuaded Zheng Sai to persuade Zheng Sai to compete seriously. After all, this competition has 250 points, and the championship has a prize of 500,000, and the runner-up has 250,000, which is quite generous.

Besides, Zhang Di came to participate in the competition this time. In Liu Wangsong's view, Zheng Sai should use this precious opportunity to challenge Zhang Di's leader's authority. Even if he still has a high probability of not be able to beat Zhang Di, he still has to try to narrow the gap with Zhang Di.

Zheng Sai and Zhang Di had a two-time encounter before, and Zhang Di won easily 2:0. In one of the second sets of one game, Zhang Di also gave Zheng Sai an egg and swept 6:0.

But that was more than a year ago. At that time, Zheng Sai's world ranking was still above 200. He was considered a pretty young newcomer and had just changed from a youth group to a career.

After the past year of hard work, Zheng Sai, who has won two Atp100-level championships and three Atp50-level championships, has matured much psychologically and technically. In this competition, he has the opportunity to face the number one player in China Men's Network again. The opportunity is quite rare, so he naturally has to cherish such opportunities.

Zheng Sai was later decided to prepare for this competition seriously by Liu Wangsong, but he was still very upset about Lu Heng.

The one he wanted to meet most in this game must be Zhang Di, but the second thing he wanted to meet was the child of the aristocratic family named Zhang Yiyang who had won the Lu Heng wild card. He wanted to abuse this disciple on the court to let him know that tennis is based on strength, not his family background!

Not only Zheng Sai has this idea, but his other two junior brothers Ma Chao and Hao Jinjie who have obtained the qualifying competition wild card are also determined to avenge Lu Heng. They actually have a better chance to meet Zhang Yiyang because they have to play in three rounds of qualifying competitions.

According to the schedule of the Fortune Championship qualifiers, 16 wild card qualifiers and 16 selected qualifiers will draw lots to face off one by one, and then two rounds will be held according to the division. In the end, only four of the qualifiers can enter the main competition. This selection is cruel.

If Ma Chao and Hao Jinjie can advance to the first round of the qualifying round, they will have a chance to meet Zhang Yiyang.

If Zheng Sai wants to meet Zhang Yiyang, the chances are actually very slim.

I came to Blue Moon Bay to practice football early. When I went to the management office level, Zheng Sai saw Zhang Yiyang's name from the whiteboard of the public venue arrangement! Zhang Yiyang was training in the 9th field next to him!

Zheng Sai was angry when he saw this arrangement. Later, after coming to the stadium, he glanced at the scene a few times during the practice. At first, he thought Du Xinghe was Zhang Yiyang because Du Xinghe's level was obviously higher than that of the other players. However, in the eyes of professional players like Zheng Sai, many of Du Xinghe's technical movements are very amateur, but the balls he played are very lethal and belongs to an amateur talented player.

If such a person wins Lu Heng's wild card, Zheng Sai will be relieved, because the opponent's football skills are indeed very special, and there is no need for Lu Heng to be inferior.

But later Zheng Sai discovered that the big black man who was beaten by Du Xinghe was Zhang Yiyang, which made Zheng Sai angry! He was so damn good at participating in the Atp250 level championship, isn’t it just a funny thing? It’s probably not enough to let him participate in the Atp50 level!

At that time, Zheng Sai wanted to find Zhang Yiyang to argue and asked Zhang Yiyang to give up his qualifications, but was stopped by Liu Wangsong. (To be continued...)
Chapter completed!
