3538 how is Vivian going to compete?
ford turned around. ” what’s the matter? why are you making a fuss? ”
” it’s … it’s miss Vivian, ” the staff member said, panting. ” something happened. ”
“what?”
ford’s expression changed.
the few of them rushed to the backstage of the arena.
in the waiting room, H university’s tennis team coach’s face was livid, and his voice was filled with anger.
“damn it, what’s going on? how do you manage the competition? there were so many staff members here, but did no one notice that someone had sneaked into the lounge? now that something like this has happened, how is Vivian supposed to compete?”
the staff member lowered his head in guilt and apologized repeatedly.
“i don’t need you to apologize now. i just want you to come up with a solution!” the coach said angrily.
seeing this, rufford quickly walked in. ” mr. coach, please don’t be anxious. what exactly happened? ”
“let me do the talking.” mu weiwei, who had been sitting on the sofa all this while, suddenly stood up and walked toward him. ” mr. ford, i left the lounge and went to the washroom just now. i was gone for about five minutes. when i came back, i realized that my racket had become like this … ”
as mu weiwei spoke, she pointed to the right corner.
ford turned to look and immediately frowned.
the tennis racket on the ground had been broken in the middle by a pair of pliers. the net had been completely broken, and it had fallen apart. it could not be used at all.
“this … this … how could this happen?” ford was also furious. ” are there no staff nearby? how could they let random people in to cause trouble? where are the surveillance cameras? have you checked the surveillance cameras?”
the staff member lowered his head and said in a trembling voice, ” i’m sorry, mr. ford. it’s … it’s our negligence. but the surveillance cameras … we can’t check them now. there’s no one in the surveillance room, and it’s locked.”
ford frowned when he heard that.
the stadium for the competition was rented by the organizing committee at the last minute. after all, it wasn’t their own place and they couldn’t force their way in.
just as he was feeling conflicted, an assistant ran in and reminded him that the match was about to start.
ford became anxious. he quickly turned to mu weiwei and said,”miss Vivian, it’s definitely the organizing committee’s fault for what happened today. i apologize to you on behalf of the organizing committee. however, there’s still half an hour left before the competition starts. you should go for the competition first. if there’s anything else, we’ll talk after the competition. i promise you that i’ll give you a satisfactory explanation.”
before mu weiwei could say anything, the coach could not help but protest,”mr. ford, are you kidding me?” Vivian’s racket has been destroyed, how is she going to compete?”
“i’ll get someone to get miss Vivian a spare racket …” ford said.
“are you joking?” the coach was even angrier when he heard this. ” you’re a professional too. don’t you know how important a racket is to a player’s performance? every time the shooting changed, the players had to go through several weeks of training to adapt. there’s only half an hour left until the finals, and you’re telling Vivian to change her shoot now?”
ford’s forehead was dripping with cold sweat.
he naturally knew that his coach was right.
different tennis rackets, even if they were of the same brand and model, would have slightly different weights, elasticity, and other aspects.
moreover, many professional players would adjust the racket’s parameters according to their own needs.
how could it be the same when the racket was changed at the last minute?
