Return to 2002: Freestyle Superstar

Chapter 482: Love in Miami (4K)

With the arduous task of winning the "Sunshine Double Crown" for the second time, Chen Ran once again arrived in Miami, a well-known coastal city in the eastern United States.

In terms of population, Miami only has a population of 60, which may not even be as good as a third-tier city in China. However, because of its important status in finance, commerce, media, entertainment, art and international trade, it still deserves to be an international city. city.

For Chen Ran, the top tennis events held in other regions besides China may only be in Miami, where he has half a home court advantage.

After all, the operating rights of this event have been acquired by Chen Ran's agency IMG, so he will definitely receive preferential treatment in the lottery.

Therefore, Chen Ran, who just won the Indian Wells championship, is still hailed as the biggest favorite.

In terms of points, Chen Ran is currently the only one in the tennis world.

The perfect performance in the first three months of 2005 also proved his previous words.

As long as he wants, he can regain the world's first place at any time.

So he doesn't care about rankings.

"Oh my god, are you really going to be beaten into a ping pong ball by this Chinese guy?"

"Before Chen Ran, several giant American players such as Agassi and Sampras jointly dominated the tennis world."

"But as professional tennis enters Chen Ran's era, his dominance alone is even greater than that of all American players."

"Now, he is on his way to an unprecedented second Sunshine Double, and we must stop him."

Both foreign media and sports fans around the world feel that men's professional tennis must never become a one-man show for Chen Ran.

However, Chen Ran was not affected at all and continued his fiery state.

Just like he had withdrawn from the Indian Wells Masters, Chen Ran, who had a bye in the first round, showed his strong suppressive power from the second round. He still swept all the players 2-0 and lived up to expectations to reach the finals.

Along the way, the only challenge he encountered was the semifinal match against Wawrinka.

In the two sets, both sides played for 12 rounds, and Chen Ran finally won with two 7-5 difficulties.

It is precisely because of this duel that Wawrinka's popularity has reached a higher level. He is already known as a player on the next level just below Chen Ran, and one of the few who can challenge him.

At this moment, Chen Ran is only one step away from winning the "Sunshine Double Crown" for the second time.

The other semi-final is a duel between Federer and the Spanish genius Nadal.

People were expecting the "Chen Fei Showdown" to be staged again, recreating the soul-stirring scene of the "Indian Wells Final".

However, the tenacious Spanish matador will not easily let everyone's expectations come true.

After three hours of hard-fought battle, Nadal, trailing 0-1, won two sets in a row, completing a shocking comeback.

and many more!

Does this scene sound familiar?

Chen Ran also staged this scene in the Indian Wells final half a month ago.

What happened to the Swiss King?

Was it because Chen Ran had caused a shadow in his heart?

Now facing Nadal, who is the same age as Chen Ran, a similar reversal script is happening again.

But this is not the clay court that the Spanish genius is best at!
"Roger, are you afraid of losing to Chen Ran again, so you deliberately lost to Nadal in the semifinals?" The American media, which has always been acrimonious, took the opportunity to ridicule the opponent, "The gap between you is constantly widening. "

In comparison, today's Roddick is not even laughed at by the US media, because this guy's competitiveness has become worse and worse recently, and he is even ranked among the top 5 in the world.

In the United States, where professional sports are highly developed and there are many sports superstars, a local tennis player who is not even ranked in the top five is not worth paying attention to.

They would rather pay attention to the "Chen-Fei Showdown", which is the main theme of today's professional tennis.

Now, with Nadal's rapid rise, he has received more attention than Roddick.

The players born in the 80s have not yet established a firm foothold in the tennis world, but the players born in the 85s seem to have begun to seize power in an all-round way.

There is not much time left for players born in the 80s. You must know that players born in the 90s will also rise in a few years.

However, with Federer's upset loss to Nadal in the semifinals, many people also believed that Chen Ran's "three consecutive championships" would be without any suspense.

At the same time, the semi-finals of the WTA event also came to an end.

Russian beauty Sharapova failed to continue her good luck in Indian Wells and ended up in the semifinals.

But fortunately, Sharapova still maintained her No. 1 ranking in the WTA.

Before she left Miami, she invited Chen Ran to dinner, hoping to have a little get-together.

The two once won the mixed doubles championship at Wimbledon together, and thus formed a deep "friendship."

At the same time, Sharapova should be regarded as the most famous foreign female athlete in China, so she has also received many endorsement contracts from China.

Whether this is related to Chen Ran or not is a matter of opinion.

But why did this somewhat willful Russian girl choose to invite herself on the eve of the final?

Don't you know there will be a fierce battle tomorrow?

Wouldn’t you wait a few more days?
"Perhaps Maria thinks it's easy to beat Nadal?"

The head-to-head record between Chen Ran and Nadal is not a complete victory, but on the hard courts, Chen Ran did not lose, and his winning advantage was very obvious.

"Well, why don't we just have a party and have a meal? It won't take much time."

"It's no big deal."

"Go early and come back early."

Chen Ran and Sharapova have had dinner together not once or twice, so they are no strangers to this.

So, he went to the appointment in a suit and tie.

However, he has always been cautious, and he was very careful when going out and did not attract any media attention.

……

"Chen, have you ever considered buying a house in Miami?"

When Chen Ran and Sharapova had dinner together and they were having a great conversation, the latter suddenly asked.

Buying a house in Miami?
Indeed, there are many non-American sports stars who like to buy houses in Miami, especially many tennis players who obviously like to buy houses here.

This city is known as "God's waiting room" because of its warm climate, developed economy, and abundant entertainment facilities, making it very livable.

In addition, this city is very clean and tidy, and was rated as the cleanest city in the beautiful country by Forbes magazine.

Other beautiful big cities in the country, such as New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, etc., are economically developed, but overall, the city streets are dirty and messy, and sanitation problems are serious. Relatively speaking, Miami is much cleaner.

"I haven't considered this issue for the time being." Chen Ran replied frankly, "Because I don't spend much time in this city a year. Of course, it is indeed very attractive."

He currently has no intention of purchasing real estate overseas.

It's not that Chen Ran has never considered buying a house overseas, but his first choice would be Melbourne, Australia, or a Swiss town at the foot of the Alps. He has never considered buying a house in Canada or a beautiful country.

Canada is too cold, and as a beautiful country, there are too many immigrants and there are too many immigrants. Even on the way just now, he saw a lot of homeless people.

What's more, people in beautiful countries have the freedom to hold guns, and this situation is getting more and more intense every year. People from many countries in the Americas can enter beautiful countries through various routes, but it is not safe at all.

This is not like Australia, which is surrounded by sea and is like a giant island isolated from the world.

Of course, Chen Ran did not disclose this to Sharapova, but talked about another point: "Maria, I have only purchased real estate in a few major cities in China. If it is overseas..."

Looking at the beauty's moving eyes, he mentally complained: Of course, the first thing is to rule out Russia.

However, Chen Ran just muttered these words in his heart, and it was absolutely impossible for him to say them out.

"I've been to Switzerland to play games, and the Alps are beautiful... I want to buy a house there and use it as my vacation spot overseas."

Sharapova's charming eyes suddenly lit up and she smiled sweetly: "In a small town under the Alps, this is definitely a very romantic place."

The Swiss Open that Chen Ran participated in was in the small town of Gstaad.

Although there are not many people and the scale is not large, it is the best resort in the world and a high-end health resort favored by countless rich people. There are even castle-style five-star hotels built on the hills.

Sharapova also heard this.

I didn’t expect Chen Ran to be so good at choosing a place.

"Chen, next time I pass by Switzerland, will you invite me?" Sharapova blinked and asked expectantly.

The big Russian girl is really straightforward.

"Of course..." Chen Ran smiled slightly, "But I haven't bought a house in Switzerland yet. It's too early."

"What I want is a promise from you."

"Of course I can promise it." Chen Ran said.

Sharapova became happy then, and then slowly put the fork into her red lips, seeming to be thinking about something.

After a while, she suddenly raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "You invited me to your future new home in Switzerland, then don't you want to come and visit my new home in Miami?"

Wait, when did I invite you? It seems like you took the initiative to come.

But Chen Ran knew one thing very well, what was the truth about talking to women.

"Of course I have." Chen Ran said out of nowhere, "How big is your new home?"

"It's more than 600 square meters, with a swimming pool and an indoor tennis court. It cost me more than 200 million US dollars!" Facing Chen Ran, Sharapova said in detail, without even the slightest thought of keeping it secret. .

"How about it, do you want to visit?"

Seeing that Chen Ran's reaction was a little slow, the beautiful Russian girl asked again.

"Is it far from here?"

"Not far, very close."

Then, Sharapova whispered an address, which was the address of her new home.

When Chen Ran heard this, he laughed in his heart.

I really asked too much.

A rich woman like Sharapova will definitely choose to buy real estate in the top wealthy areas of Miami.

Where are the top wealthy areas in Miami?

This is an artificial island, embraced by the blue sea and surrounded by lush vegetation, like a maritime wonderland, and there are many private yachts along the winding island line.

If you want to go out to sea, you can always pay someone to drive a yacht out to sea.

Especially for some rich people, if you want to avoid being ruined by the police for your "good deeds", you can spend money to hire some beautiful women to accompany you on a yacht to go to sea.

On the sea, no matter what transactions you make with beauties, even if it is group sports, no one can control it.

Later, the wealthy people in China also mastered the essence of it. They took the beauties out to sea on yachts, and the location was chosen in the famous Sanya, Hainan.

Let’s get back to business…

Chen Ran and Sharapova took a special car and quietly arrived at her new home in Miami.

This artificial island is full of greenery, beautiful environment, and very quiet.

This is a sea view villa, not far away is the blue and turbulent sea.

"Chen, look..." Sharapova opened her hands, "This is my new home, isn't it beautiful?"

"Well, beautiful!"

It is indeed a top-notch villa that I spent more than 200 million US dollars to buy. Each apartment has its own unique style and elegance, and the lighting is also very good, so you can enjoy the warm sunshine of Miami.

The leisure area also creates a scene of "sea water, beach, and sunbathing", not to mention the own swimming pool with deck chairs, which is very comfortable and lazy.

"As expected of America, a country with vast land and sparsely populated areas."

"Miami is a huge city with only 60 people."

"Such a villa, if placed in China's Yanjing or Magic City, would cost more than 200 million US dollars, at least to million US dollars."

Chen Ran thought for a while and said.

"Is it that exaggerated?" Sharapova was a little unbelievable.

"Yes, there is a lot of money there." Chen Ran said.

Sharapova seemed to have thought of something, and under the warm lights of the villa, the atmosphere became a little ambiguous.

"Chen, you know, I just turned eighteen and I'm an adult."

Sharapova said with some anticipation.

"Um...Actually, I'm not much older than you, I can be considered just an adult." Chen Ran replied.

Sharapova pointed to the swimming pool not far away and smiled sweetly: "I want to swim, please accompany me."

"Um..." Chen Ran took a deep breath and said in a strange way, "Okay."

Is it really just swimming?
The two of them got into the water one after another.

At first they swam separately.

But gradually, the two bodies got closer and closer...

Chen Ran even felt the beautiful Russian girl's breathing becoming more rapid.

Soon, he felt a pair of white but strong arms begin to wrap around him tightly.

This begins...

and many more!

Why in the water!
Well, it’s in the water, I haven’t tried it in a swimming pool yet?
There is another game tomorrow, the final against Nadal?
I don’t care anymore!
……

PS: Everyone knew before that they would definitely push Sharapova, but no matter what, they had to wait until the other person reached adulthood, otherwise the protagonist would be stained.
