"Oh my God!" Sharapova covered her mouth in surprise. She saw her name written on the sign and seemed to realize something.
Zhang Guan took Sharapova and walked in. Sharapova looked around. The store was filled with candies, all kinds of candies.
At this moment, Sharapova was completely stunned. Her mind could no longer think normally, and her heart was filled with indescribable tension and joy.
Zhang Guan's voice sounded from behind her: "I still remember you saying that it would be great if you could have such a store. If you had such a store, you would sell candies, red, green, Blue, yellow... strips, circles, squares... all kinds of candies, all filled with them!"
After Zhang Guan finished speaking, he hugged Sharapova from behind and continued: "Now you have such a store. This is an early birthday gift for you."
Zhang Guan's words finally confirmed Sharapova's thoughts.
"He still remembers what I said. It's been so long. He still remembers what I said..." Sharapova herself could hardly remember what she said at that time, but Zhang Guan kept thinking about it and bought it. Come down here and pack the candy.
The next moment, tears of joy could not stop rolling down from the corners of Sarah's eyes.
"Thank you." Sharapova said with a slight choke: "You idiot, didn't you realize that I just said a joke?"
"Is this a joke? In my opinion, this is the wish of a beautiful woman!" Zhang Guan leaned into Sharapova's ear and continued: "What you want is not a joke, I will Help you realize..."
"No, I can't have it!" Sharapova shook her head: "This is too expensive. I know that land is very expensive in Hong Kong, and the rent in this place should be very expensive. I can't afford the rent."
"You don't have to pay rent, I've already bought it here! This whole store belongs to you." Zhang Guan continued: "Don't you always want a candy store? You just take advantage of this opportunity to build your own brand. How about just selling candy?”
Sharapova hesitated. As Zhang Guan said, she really wanted a candy store of her own. It was her childhood dream.
Sharapova nodded silently, and then continued: "That's what I borrowed from you. I will pay it back to you when I make money!"
"You don't have to pay it back, I'm not short of money!" Zhang Guan kissed her cheek gently: "I think it's better to pay with my body?"
…
Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Federer is sitting on the computer in the hotel, with a trophy in the shape of a sailboat beside him, which is the trophy of the Dubai Championship.
The level of competition in the Dubai Championship is not high, and the venue is in Asia. It should not be very attractive, but the Emiratis are rich and are willing to spend appearance fees, so both Federer and Nadal came to participate in this competition. , Federer also won the final championship, but Nadal was unlucky. In the quarter-finals, he was eliminated by the Russian Youzhny who was in good condition. Youzhny even reached the final and was ultimately defeated by Federer.
Although he won the Dubai Championship, Federer was not happy. Except for playing Djokovic in the quarter-finals, Federer did not encounter any decent opponents at all. Nadal was eliminated early, which made Federer found the game increasingly boring.
"I originally thought that Zhang Guan would participate in the competition in Asia. I really want to play against Zhang Guan again!" Federer couldn't help but search for Zhang Guan's information on his computer.
"Zhang Guan gave Sharapova a candy store?" Federer clicked on the news. In addition to the store, there was also a picture of Zhang Guan and Sharapova taken by reporters on a sweet trip.
Federer suddenly thought of the sandstorm he encountered in Dubai two days ago and felt even more depressed.
"I played hard in Dubai and suffered a sandstorm. Zhang Guan is so good, he is flirting with girls!"
…
Soon after, Sharapova left China and returned to the United States to recover from her injuries. She was also preparing for the Pacific Life Insurance Cup and Sony Ericsson Cup. Zhang Guan rushed to the capital to prepare for participating in campus promotion activities organized by the tennis center.
Due to the meeting, vehicle control in the capital is stricter than usual at this time. Certain vehicles are not even allowed to enter certain areas during certain times. Although Zhang Guan is not qualified to participate in the meeting, he can swipe his face, and Zhang Guan's face swiping is more effective than many people who are qualified to participate, so there is no need to worry about the obstruction of passage.
At this time, a proposal regarding athletes' freedom to develop commercial value attracted widespread media attention. Subsequently, many previous news were dug up again by media people. For example, when Yao went to the NBA, he directly asked for 50% of his income; for example, the little prince of diving was kicked out of the national team; even the prince of gymnastics retired that year. Later, the story of establishing his own brand was also reproduced by the media.
Can athletes independently develop their own business value? Some people support it, and some people oppose it. Many media, including celebrities, have had in-depth discussions around this issue, and the success stories of Yao's team and the championship team have been used as examples by many supporters.
However, various sports associations do not want the media to dwell on this issue. As vested interests, they certainly hope that this issue will never come to public attention. However, since it had become a proposal and was submitted to the meeting, even if they wanted to cover it up, there was nothing they could do.
At this time, a rumor appeared on the Internet, claiming that the fundamental reason why Zhang Guan was suspended was because the Tianjin Management Center was dissatisfied with the commercial value of Zhang Guan's independent operation by the championship team, and hoped to force Zhang Guan to hand over the commercial value development rights. The article also specifically highlighted the coaching change at the Field Management Center at the end of last year, pointing the finger directly at Director Qu.
However, at this time, everyone is concerned about the meeting, and there will be no discordant voices in the media, so there is no media to specifically dig into this kind of not very positive thing. But the lack of media reports does not mean that rumors will not circulate. Especially in the Internet age, the speed of information circulation is very fast.
…
Director Qu sat in the office, his expression completely distorted by anger. Facing the overwhelming discussion among netizens, Director Qu found that he had no way to fight back. He could only sit there and sulk.
"Make a statement to defend yourself?" Director Qu immediately rejected the idea. This matter is still in the rumor stage, and media reporters did not conduct interviews or reports on it because of the need for harmony in the meeting. If he took the initiative to issue a statement at this time, there is a high probability that he will be regarded as a shameless person. One hundred taels, this is asking for trouble.
Moreover, some people questioned a few days ago that Zhang Guan was playing in the Australian Open to win glory for the country, but the Tianjin Management Center was holding back. If he took the initiative to bring up the suspension at this time, it would not mean giving the media a chance to expose these shady players. history.
"It's such a bad year!" Director Qu sighed sadly.
…
At the same time, a latest public opinion monitoring report has appeared in the hands of the relevant leaders of the General Administration.
"The Farm Management Center wants to take back Zhang Guan's commercial value development rights, so it banned Zhang Guan? These netizens have really rich imaginations..." He was suddenly startled when he thought of this, and then frowned thoughtfully. brow. He turned on the computer, searched for some things, and had some associations in his mind.
"This kind of thing is not impossible. However, it is not smart at all to directly ban the competition." He shook his head silently: "I remember that the director of the Tian Management Center was named Qu, and he used to be Tian. The vice-president of the association, it seems that this comrade is still lacking in ability and may not be able to lead this team well."
