Chapter 127 Cooperate in fighting against counterfeiting? [Thanks to 1夜愁凉1, 闲云卜 for the reward]
Is there any other investment in the world that is so easy and has such high returns?
But after the excitement, Ma Yaowei's heart was filled with regret again.
After returning home tonight, he must borrow 20 yuan, even if he has to write an IOU to his father.
Otherwise, if you miss this wave, you will regret it for the rest of your life.
Different from Ma Yaowei's excitement, Hong Yubao's expression suddenly turned a little ugly.
This result was indeed beyond his expectations.
This stuntman, who used to rely on connections to get into the crew to play a minor role, turned out to be such a hidden talent?
Yu Wenle smiled awkwardly, with a hint of annoyance on his face.
loss!
He didn't expect that Basong, who was favored by so many people, would be so weak. If he had known earlier, he would have followed Zhang Baizhi and bought a bet on Waiwei.
I picked up millions for free.
Although he is quite popular now, he still belongs to the exploited lower-middle class.
You have to take on at least a few endorsements to earn that much.
At the scene, in addition to Zhang Baizhi, Sun Yaowei and others, there were also some audience members who bet on Du Sheng to be an upset and cheered excitedly.
Most of them bought it outside, and many of them were from the Fude Boxing Gym, just to give it a try.
Although several people from Fude Boxing Gym were eliminated by Du Sheng and his companion, they definitely know how powerful Du Sheng is better than outsiders.
As for others, perhaps they did not have high expectations for Du Sheng and just wanted to buy an upset for fun.
Hong Kong people like good luck very much, and seeking prosperity is more important than anything else.
If you try hard, a bicycle can be turned into a motorcycle.
"Come on, that handsome guy from the mainland. I'll continue to support you in the next game!"
"It really is the 'ghost sniper'. Even the favorite was killed by the sniper."
"We won so easily, it looks like we have a chance to advance to the finals."
Unlike the audience who were excited, cursing, or indignant, the contestant seats were surprisingly quiet.
Or rather, a little silent.
Young Master Li's eyes lit up as he looked at Zheng Zetao who came to help:
"Is this the martial arts master you mentioned?"
Zheng Zetao looked somewhat pleased, he must have won a lot, but he said with a hint of regret:
"Impressive, isn't it? Unfortunately, he is so focused on filming that he only participates in fighting for fun."
The young master of the Li family listened thoughtfully and said:
"If he is really that capable and can fight his way through, sponsorship and investment will be easy to come by."
Among Hong Kong's prominent families, three "Lee families" are more famous.
The first is the Li Chaoren family, the second is Li Zhaoji of Sun Hung Kai Properties, and the third is the Li Shipeng family, which represents the largest Chinese bank in Hong Kong.
And he is from the third Li family, and his overall wealth is no less than that of Zheng Zetao's family.
If Du Sheng really represents some mainland organization to join the war, he can try to win him over to pave the way for future development in the mainland.
On the other side, Hong Tianzhao, who was watching Basong being carried down, had a gloomy expression on his face.
To be honest, Hong Tianzhao really didn't understand how Basong lost.
His master Zhou Bili had sparred with Basong several times before and knew very well how sharp the opponent's fists were. He was afraid that a wooden board more than ten millimeters thick could be punched through with one punch.
But what did he just see!
Basong's uppercuts and flying knees hit Du Sheng's arms and thighs hard, but the latter felt like he was tickled and didn't even shake, let alone feel any pain.
No wonder the audience felt it was a fake fight.
But Basong participated in "Legend of Wulin" this time to make money, why should he be let off?
Not to mention that Hong Tianzhao couldn't understand, even Sato Yoshihiro, one of the top three favorites and known as the "kickboxing maniac", couldn't help but frowned.
However, his strength and experience are much greater than Hong Tianzhao's, and it can be seen that Basong has tried his best.
He even realized that he and others had underestimated Du Sheng.
The opponent's explosive power and defensive capabilities are extraordinary.
Basong's punch has a force of at least 400 pounds. Even if it is cushioned by the gloves, it is still nearly pounds. If he is hit, he will also feel pain.
"Could it be that this guy is like Tyson, with a natural ability to withstand blows?"
To be able to do this, either the nerves have low pain sensitivity or the muscles have high strength and density.
But no matter which one it is, it is not easy to master.
Take Tyson for example. He had been fighting since he was a child, and had been attacked by swords, sticks and clubs. Later, he underwent seven years of devilish combat training, which strengthened his muscle density and eliminated local pain.
What surprised Sato Yoshihiro the most was that Du Sheng also had good explosive power.
One punch weighs over 6 or 7 pounds?
What a ridiculous concept!
Boxers who have undergone strength training can usually weigh 100 to pounds, and there are also many boxers who can weigh over pounds, but their weight is over kilograms.
How much does Du Sheng weigh?
This clearly goes against scientific common sense.
Moreover, there are many factors that influence a boxing match, so it is impossible to burst out with all your strength.
It's quite good to be able to perform 70% to 80% of what you usually train.
One can imagine how terrifying Du Sheng's real punching power is.
Sato Yoshihiro asked himself, would he be able to reach the same level when he was the other person's age?
The answer is no.
For a moment, many contestants became cautious and began to take it seriously.
This guy is not a scoundrel at all, he is clearly pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger.
I'm about to become a piglet!
Du Sheng would not pay attention to the speculation of outsiders. After all, he had no intention of hiding his incompetence. He just didn't have the opportunity to go on stage before.
After he finished answering the organizer's interview questions, he was pulled over by Liu Dehua, Zhang Baizhi and others.
"Asheng, congratulations, you have a chance to make the finals!"
Liu Dehua was all smiles and clasped his fists in congratulations.
Although he was optimistic about Du Sheng and had seen his abilities with his own eyes.
But the other party's performance today still amazed him.
Looking at this situation, let alone becoming a real kung fu star, I'm afraid he has a chance to win the championship.
By then, popularity and net worth will be completely different!
"Brother Hua, you are too kind. There are still a few games to go. It's too early."
Du Sheng smiled calmly and greeted Mrs. Xiang who came over.
"Keep it up, there is a lot to be done."
Although Mrs. Xiang was somewhat emotional, she gave a rare word of encouragement. The entertainment industry has always been a circle of intertwined personal connections and complicated relationships.
Without strong support, it would be very difficult to stand out.
Although this young man had just arrived in Hong Kong, he established relationships with Du Qifeng, Ju Jueliang, Liu Dehua and others with his extraordinary abilities and opportunities.
He has already made a name for himself today, and his future achievements will definitely be extraordinary.
Her words undoubtedly gave enough face to Liu Dehua and Zhang Baizhi.
"Come on, I believe you can do it!~"
Zhang Baizhi spoke with joy, her beautiful eyes lingering on the man.
But the media were taking pictures, so she didn't say much, just winked.
Du Sheng understood it at a glance.
I have to do some tutoring again tonight.
"Ah Sheng, it turns out you really weren't joking before."
Sun Yaowei smiled bitterly and said with a hint of exaggeration:
"Good man! With such a powerful punch on me, you must have knelt down and begged me not to die."
"Haha~"
The few of them exchanged pleasantries and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
However, Mrs. Xiang was a prominent figure in Hong Kong with friends all over the world, so she was called away soon.
Although Zhang Baizhi was reluctant, she had no choice but to go with them.
Sun Yaowei still had to prepare for the concert, so he said goodbye and left.
Liu Dehua was also a busy man. Before leaving, he suddenly remembered something and said:
“Infernal Affairs is almost finished filming and is expected to be released on May 1st.
If the box office is good, we will start preparing for the second part, and you will probably have a role in it."
As a film supervisor and producer, he had planned many things in advance.
This is a preventive measure to avoid accidents.
In addition, as Hong Kong films are declining, its development focus will shift to the mainland in the future.
This aspect of the relationship must be handled well.
Based on Du Sheng's current development momentum, he will definitely shine in the mainland in the future.
There is a saying that goes, "It is better to help someone in need than to add icing on the cake."
"Brother Hua, as long as you open your mouth, I'll be there whenever you call."
Du Sheng naturally knew all this, and he thanked him with some kindness and agreed immediately.
"Infernal Affairs 2" was a great success at the box office and in good reputation, and the young version of Liu Jianming was one of the protagonists, so he certainly wouldn't miss it.
Liu Dehua had just left and Du Sheng was also preparing to go back.
Unexpectedly, Hong Xibao actually walked towards him.
"Chat for a few minutes?"
Du Sheng was slightly stunned, but did not say much and followed the other party into the reception hall.
Seeing this, Ma Yaowei knew that Hong Xibao had something to discuss with Du Sheng alone, so he tactfully stayed outside.
He gave Du Sheng a reassuring look, as if telling him:
"This place is sponsored by the Zheng family, nothing will go wrong."
After entering a side room, Hong Yubao looked at Du Sheng and said directly:
"The Basong you defeated today was invited by me through my connections."
In fact, this statement still has some reservations.
There are several retired boxers like Basong, the difference is their strength.
When Du Sheng heard this, he immediately understood Hong Yubao's intention.
As a father, how could he not know his son's strength?
If Hong Tianzhao were allowed to fend for himself, he would have to burn incense to thank the gods if he could make it into the top 32.
Hong Yubao was unwilling to accept this, so he thought of an unconventional plan.
Use money and connections to clear obstacles for his son.
Unfortunately, the plan was aborted before it could be implemented.
"Oh? So what?"
Du Sheng looked at Hong Yubao with a smile, waiting for his next words.
Hong Yubao did not beat around the bush and said, as if hinting at something:
“I have to admit, I really underestimated you in the past.
For the sake of our past good cooperation, how about doing me a favor? "
Du Sheng vaguely guessed what the other party would say next, and said without comment:
"If you have something to say, just say it."
He didn't even call him Brother Bao anymore, for fear that the other party would take advantage of him.
Good cooperation?
The reason why he was able to enter "Special Police Flying Dragon" last time was because he used favors and paid a sum of money, which gave him the opportunity to replace the unlucky guy who was originally scheduled to play the role.
In addition, the crew was filming a drug-busting scene in a rural area, so it was impossible to hire someone from outside for a small supporting role.
It is inevitable to find stuntmen, martial arts stand-ins, and extras to replace them.
"It's simple, help my son get to the finals!"
Hong Yubao didn't mind Du Sheng's address, but paid attention to the changes in his expression:
"Of course, I won't let you help me for nothing. Film contracts, endorsements, and money can all be discussed."
Du Sheng smiled slightly, not surprised by this.
In the eyes of most people, there is no problem that cannot be solved with power and money.
Although he currently has certain assets, he does not have enough cash on hand.
Plus, the film contract proposed by the other party was indeed attractive to him.
