Chapter 50: Race and Weighing
In fact, Li Jun can also directly ask Chang Zhiyang to arrange his people, but since the other party has already arranged Wu Li's schedule, Li Jun feels that the other party may not agree to mention too many conditions, and even if he agrees, it is estimated that he will be upset, which will affect the final result, so Li Jun came to find Lin Dongsen, who is also a sponsor, and asked Lin Dongsen to ask Chang Zhiyang There is a high probability that Chang Zhiyang will not be far away.
In this way, he not only sniped Wu Li, but also took advantage of the situation to enhance the reputation of his people, and after Liu Yuanbo left, Li Jun took over the boxing gym by himself, and then made this person the signboard of the boxing gym to re-enhance the reputation of the boxing gym, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Li Jun left Star Entertainment satisfied, and then waited for the results of the game.
......
At three o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, Qi City TV Station expedited the 'face-to-face' program recorded by Wu Li and others, and sent a sample to Wu Li for him to help publicize, and the broadcast time of the program was 9 o'clock that night, and the network broadcast it was broadcast simultaneously.
In order to publicize, Wu Li first recorded a short video of himself talking on the show with his mobile phone, posted it on Moyin, and then started the live broadcast in advance, calling on everyone to watch the show with him in the live broadcast room at that time.
At eight o'clock in the evening, under the dual role of spending money to play the list and spending money to promote, 'can you play in the end' has become the first topic on the magic sound hot list, and the first one you click on is the video released by Wu Li.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Qishi TV broadcast 'face-to-face' on time, and the corresponding website also refreshed the latest program.
Wu Li was in the live broadcast room, pointing the camera at the TV, and there were more than 50,000 people in the live broadcast room at this time.
At 9:23, the rating of 'face-to-face' reached a gratifying 1.7, which ranked first in the variety show of Qishi TV in 2019 and third among all programs!
And the number of views of 'Face to Face' on the Internet has also exceeded 100,000, which has just been refreshed for less than 30 minutes, and the average number of views in the previous entire season was only more than 300,000.
"Go and report to the director, this Wu Li, we have to invite him to record alone again no matter what!"
Sun Zhenglei, the director of the 'face-to-face' program group, said to his assistant that if he didn't seize the opportunity, the director would have worked in vain for so many years.
At 9:40, the episode of "Face to Face" ended, and at the same time, the topic of "Can Chuanwu fight" was on the hot search, ranking fifth.
That night, the highest number of online people in Wu Li's live broadcast room was 120,000, more than when he and Ren Donglai broadcast the game live, and the number of fans increased by more than 3 million overnight, which was better than the publicity effect of the previous week, and Wu Li's fans on the magic sound reached more than 11 million, officially becoming a big Internet celebrity of tens of millions.
Early the next morning, the topic of 'whether Chuanwu can fight in the end' became the first hot search on Weibo.
Wu Li, Liu Yuanbo, Pinyi Company and Qi City TV Station, no one expected that the publicity effect would be so good this time.
In fact, it is mainly because of the special feelings of the Chinese people for Chuanwu, no matter how they scold, at least most people still hope that Chuanwu can be "hard" once.
This time, what Wu Li said on the show was actually very objective, and explained the reason why Chuanwu is declining now, and the clip of him making Han Yuanfei and Lu Ping speechless makes people feel funny and very relieved at the same time, especially the hypothetical about the World Fighting Competition at the end, which makes him fascinated, so this interview is popular, and the discussion about whether Chuanwu can fight is also popular on the Internet:
"Well said, the essence of martial arts is weapon fighting, and there is more ability than weapon fighting!"
"A bunch of fools, it's the 21st century, martial arts have been developed for so many years, do you think that modern martial arts have no equipment training?
"Tut, Chinese civilization for 5,000 years, no country has more ancient war history than us, after so many years of development, in terms of skills, it has long been the peak; the human body can do so many movements, and there are so many vital points on the human body, and your science and technology will develop for another 100 years, unless you come up with three heads and six arms, what more flowers can you use to fight than in ancient times?
"It's really funny, Chuanwu can't beat it with his bare hands, and he starts to talk about things with weapons, and when he can't fight with weapons, can you still find something to say, and the posture is good?"
"Why can't Chuanwu beat with his bare hands, doesn't Sanda count?"
"That is, Sanda, the classic martial arts school is just not good!"
"Aren't those grandmasters in the Republic of China strong? It's just that now that the inheritance has been broken, you trolls are stepping on the things of your ancestors to find a sense of superiority. ”
......
In short, as long as this kind of thing starts, there is anything to say, and the two groups of people can reply to me one sentence, and they can quarrel until the earth is desolate, and no one can convince anyone.
But in any case, Wu Li is on fire, the Extreme Martial Arts Conference is on fire, and netizens are paying very much attention to this game, especially Wu Li, who thinks he is the representative of Chuanwu.
His supporters are eager for him to knock out his opponents and slap them in the face, while those who hate him are waiting with a magnifying glass to spray as soon as he has a little bit of bad performance on the court.
Pinyi Company, the chairman's office, and subordinates are reporting their achievements to Chang Zhiyang.
"Mr. Chang, now our game has gained a lot of attention, it can be said that half of the success has been achieved, and many of these people are because of Wu Li, you said before that you specially arranged Wu Li's schedule, do you want to change it now? If Wu Li is eliminated very early, I am afraid that there will not be so many people paying attention to it by then. ”
Chang Zhiyang listened to his subordinates' suggestions, frowned and thought, he didn't expect that a talk show could lead to such an effect, it was indeed an unexpected joy, but the new question was how to arrange it for Wu Li.
He had promised Li Jun before to arrange Wu Li's opponent in the early stage to be stronger, and now it seems that once Wu Li loses early, there is indeed the problem raised by his subordinates: many people may not watch the game.
Chang Zhiyang held this competition mainly to satisfy his own wishes at the beginning, he didn't think about making money, and he was even ready to lose money.
When Li Jun and Lin Dongsen offered to sponsor them, Chang Zhiyang was very happy, and some people paid for their dreams! So as long as the demands made by the two of them were not excessive, he was also willing to give face.
However, now that there are suddenly more people paying attention to the game, Chang Zhiyang's businessman side has the upper hand, why not make money if you have money?
"Li Jun and Lin Dongsen have found me successively, although they are not asking for the same thing, but the purpose is actually the same, that is, to step on Wu Li; ”
Subordinates should be confidants, so Chang Zhiyang directly said his thoughts," The requirements of the two still have to be met, after all, they have already agreed, but Wu Li can't be eliminated so early, in this way, Wu Li's opponent in the group stage is still stronger, but there is no need to be too deliberate, didn't you say before that he was specially drawn to a five-person group, this is not necessary, it's still a four-person group; ”
"Okay, I'll arrange it. The subordinate nodded and went straight out.
Chang Zhiyang looked at the information about Wu Li in his hand and muttered: "It's really interesting, a college student, you can let the CEOs of two companies take such special care, and you can be regarded as capable." ”
....
On December 13, the day before the start of the Extreme Martial Arts Competition, all the contestants went to the designated place of the competition to weigh themselves.
Formal fighting matches are divided into heavyweights, after all, real fighting is not like novels and movies, it is not a heavyweight fight between two people, and the gap is often very large.
Wu Li's usual weight is almost 73 kilograms, the lightweight class that signed up, the lightweight class that Han Yuanfei and Lu Ping both signed up, in addition, the eight seeded players advertised by the tournament, there is also a lightweight person who also signed up;
The number of people who came to the lightweight area to weigh in this extreme martial arts conference was the largest in the audience, because everyone knew before the game that there were Han Yuanfei and Lu Ping in the lightweight division, and this group must be the focus of the audience's attention, so many fighters will deliberately control their weight to sign up for the lightweight division.
Generally speaking, fighters want their actual weight to be heavier than their body weight at the time of weighing, and it is best to be able to lower a weight class to participate in the competition, so many fighters will go through a brutal weight loss process before weighing, and immediately after weighing, they will become big stomachs, and some people can gain more than a dozen pounds in a day.
Wu Li did not do this, maybe in order to play other heavyweight matches in the future, he will deliberately control his weight, but for the time being, he is still more suitable for his current weight.
"Wu Li. The weighing staff called Wu Li's name.
Liu Yuanbo also came with him, Wu Li handed over the mobile phone to Liu Yuanbo, and then walked over wearing a pair of black shorts.
That's right, during this weighing process, Wu Li also started the live broadcast, and he is very popular now, so he must seize the opportunity to increase the value of fans.
After the weighing is completed, the draw will be made, and the competition will be divided into two stages: the group stage and the knockout stage, and the list of the group stage will be drawn today.
The lightweight competition has a total of 67 participants, and will be divided into 16 groups, each group of 4 people, but there will be three groups of 5 people, who will play the group round-robin first, win one game and get 1 point, lose one game 0 points, and finally the person with the highest points will qualify from the group.
"Group C, Wu Li. ”
On the stage, the lottery personnel read Wu Li's name.
