"I'm betting on Liu Yan to lose!" a person next to him suddenly walked over and said.

A few people turned their heads and saw that it was Powell, and they didn't know when he was eavesdropping on a few people.

Liu Yan smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Powell is not optimistic about me." ”

The others saw the smell of gunpowder, and Robertson said, "Does Powell like to gamble on boxing too?"

"I've never gambled before, but since Mr. Liu Yan is going to box, I want to go and see it. ”

Liu Yan stared at Powell and said slowly: "Then how much do you want to bet? I want to bet against you." ”

Powell was actually talking fast, deliberately angry with Liu Yan, and didn't really want to bet, and now Liu Yan has an army against him, and he is speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.

Mo Xiaolin knew what Liu Yan meant, and after translating, she added: "Since Mr. Powell is so confident, then he must gamble more, Mr. Liu Yan is ready to bet himself a million." ”

In fact, Liu Yan didn't say how many bets he made, but Mo Xiaolin followed Liu Yan's train of thought and began to squeeze him.

Robertson and David also saw that Powell was narrow-minded, and they were biased towards Liu Yan in their hearts, but Powell was also from Meiguo no matter what he said, so it was difficult for them to say anything.

"One million?" Powell was stunned, he thought that Huaxia's stars were not very rich, even if they bet, they would play with tens of thousands, besides, Meiguo's one million is equivalent to seven or eight million in Huaxia.

But Mo Xiaolin opened his mouth for one million, even local stars can't play like this, and he is a rising star who only became popular last year, even if he can take it out, he can't gamble on it.

"Yes, it's one million, do you dare to bet?" Mo Xiaolin looked at him with a wicked smile.

Robertson and David couldn't hold back a laugh and didn't help Powell play the round, the two deliberately chatted about other things and didn't get involved in Powell's gambling topic.

Powell froze here, gritted his teeth, and said: "Then I will also bet on one million, and the other side wins!"

Although Powell has never been to a boxing match, Thompson's seven gyms are still very famous, and he believes that no matter what, the fighters here will definitely be able to beat Liu Yan!

Mo Xiaolin translated Powell's words to Liu Yan, and Liu Yan said with a smile: "That's decided, Mr. Robertson and Mr. David are listening, we have an old saying in China: If you say a word, it's hard to chase a horse, but you can't regret it!"

Powell stubbornly said: "Don't worry, you will lose, and I will thank you for helping me make this big money." ”

At this time, Liu Yan's mobile phone rang, and he picked it up and saw that it was Thompson's phone.

He handed the phone to Mo Xiaolin, and Mo Xiaolin asked, "Hello, I'm Liu Yan's translator." ”

Thompson asked: "Hehe, you are the beauty who came to the boxing gym with Liu Yan, you help me tell Liu Yan, the time is booked, at eight o'clock tomorrow night, the third main match, the venue is my Hans Street boxing gym, I will send someone to pick you up at the hotel." ”

Mo Xiaolin replied: "Okay, I'll tell him, goodbye!"

Everyone looked at Mo Xiaolin, she learned what Thompson said just now, and Robertson said: "Great, this is a good opportunity for Liu Yan to become famous, if he wins, the next movie will not need to be promoted, it will definitely be a box office hit!"

Powell said coldly: "That's not necessarily, it's a shame to lose!"

Liu Yan was very indifferent, looked at the time, and said: "That's all for today's meal, thank you Mr. Robertson for your hospitality, I'll go back and prepare, and everyone is welcome to watch in the gym tomorrow." ”

David was the most excited, he resolutely supported Liu Yan, laughed and said: "I will also bet tomorrow, bet on Mr. Liu Yan 100,000, no, 200,000!"

Liu Yan nodded in thanks, and then looked at Powell: "Mr. Powell, don't forget your one million bet." ”

"Don't forget your million, bet yourself, and remember to exchange it for our money!" Powell replied unconvinced.

"It's a deal!"

Liu Yan, Mo Xiaolin, Director Zhang, and Mr. Hu returned to the hotel, and in Director Zhang's room, Mr. Hu held a meeting with several people.

"We came to the sand machine this time, mainly for Liu Yan's international development, today Director Zhang and I met with Hollywood investment companies, they are still very confident in Liu Yan, but there is one point, they feel dissatisfied. Hu Sanping said and looked at Liu Yan.

Liu Yan asked, "Mr. Hu, do they have any requirements?"

"Their requirement is that you speak English in the film, which is not easy. Hu Sanping shook his head gently, because he knew that Liu Yan's background was not from a professional class, he had not gone to school, and it was simply impossible to suddenly learn a foreign language.

Seeing that Liu Yan didn't speak, Mo Xiaolin lowered her head, then stood up and said, "Uncle Hu, their request is a bit excessive, aren't all films dubbed?"

Hu Sanping shook his head and said: "This is their tradition here, they all use the original voice of the actors, especially the protagonist." In fact, they put forward this condition, not to embarrass Liu Yan, as an international superstar, he really has to be proficient in English. ”

Liu Yan raised his head and said firmly: "Okay, Mr. Hu, I will try my best to learn English, but I can't guarantee how much I will learn, because I haven't learned anything before." ”

Hu Sanping saw that Liu Yan's attitude was very resolute, and nodded approvingly: "Liu Yan, you have this determination, it's very good, but it's also very difficult, so let's do it, after returning to China, I'll find you a private tutor to teach you English, and start from the spoken language, to ensure that you can master English as soon as possible." ”

Mo Xiaolin said on the side: "What kind of foreign teacher do you invite, just let me teach him!"

Liu Yan hurriedly refused: "Forget it, you are so busy, how can you have time to give me lectures every day." ”

Hu Sanping also smiled: "You, don't make a mess, your spoken language can be understood, it's too inauthentic!"

Mo Xiaolin pouted and sat down, no longer speaking, Liu Yan continued: "Mr. Hu, let's do it, we are going to stay here for a month, from tomorrow, I will learn to speak with Xiaolin, and after returning to China, you can help me find a foreign teacher, so that I can also be considered a little basic." ”

Zhang Yimou said: "Yes, this is good, in fact, in a foreign environment, learning a foreign language is the fastest, and I usually have the opportunity to chat with foreigners." ”

Hu Sanping and Director Zhang also drank a lot of red wine just now, and after finishing speaking, the two went back to their rooms to rest, Mo Xiaolin was still sitting, but she said, "I'm going to sleep too." ”

Liu Yan was not sleepy, hugged her to his lap, and said with a smile: "You can teach me to speak now, I want to learn!"

Mo Xiaolin snorted out laughing and said, "You are quite anxious and motivated, why didn't you study hard when you used to go to school?"

She didn't know that Liu Yan was a child from the countryside, so her words poked Liu Yan's sore spot, Liu Yan sighed and said, "I went to elementary school, and then I didn't study anymore." ”

"Why?" Mo Xiaolin asked puzzled.

"Most of our rural areas were like this, and I didn't study well at that time. But now I regret it, I should have studied hard at the time. Liu Yan recalled the days in the countryside, his face was slightly red, he remembered the days with Xiaohua's childhood sweetheart, at that time, Xiaohua also gave him supplementary lessons, but he couldn't learn well.

"I see, it's okay, it's not too late to learn now, come, I'll teach you three sentences first, you can use it right away, how are you, good morning, bye bye......"

"Bye-bye, I'll change to another one!" Liu Yan pouted.

The two were playing and teaching English at the same time, of course, Mo Xiaolin stayed in Liu Yan's room all night and did not go back.

The next night, Liu Yan was ready, and Chris, the hip-hop man, drove to the hotel and took Liu Yan and Mo Xiaolin to the boxing gym on Hans Street.

Boss Thompson personally led people to the door of the gym to greet Liu Yan, very enthusiastic, stretched out his hands and Liu Yan to shake together, and said loudly: "Mr. Liu Yan, it is really our honor to invite you to participate in the boxing match, let me introduce, this is your opponent today, he just took the initiative to ask to meet you with me, his nickname is Death, come, know me!"

Liu Yan noticed the person standing next to Thompson just now, this person was wearing a gray hoodie, and the pattern on the clothes was a blood-colored Grim Reaper, which looked very scary.

But the most frightening thing is his face, which is hateful in four words, he is a black man, but he has no eyebrows, his eyes are large, like bull's eyes, he doesn't know how to get it on his face, there are no flat places, all are scars or potholes, his nose is crooked, and a piece is missing. The lips are extremely thick and turned outward.

Liu Yan was secretly shocked in his heart, his face did not change, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said, "Hello." ”

The big hand of the Grim Reaper was larger than Liu Yan, the joints on the hand spit out, and the skin was extremely rough, like the bark of a tree, he shook hands with Liu Yan, but did not speak.

Mo Xiaolin was very afraid of this death, so she hid backwards and went around behind Liu Yan, not daring to look at his eyes.

Thompson smiled and said, "Grim Reaper, this guy doesn't like to talk, don't you care, he's the fighter with the highest win rate here, he's never counted, and all of them are won by knockout!

Although he was laughing, Liu Yan saw the cruel taste in his eyes, and he immediately understood that this Thompson had no good intentions, he deliberately stabilized Liu Yan last time, and then dragged on for a day, and found the most powerful boxer to deal with Liu Yan.

The result of this can be said to kill two birds with one stone, not only to defeat the masters of Huaxia, increase the exposure of the gym, but also to make money, his wishful thinking jingled.

Liu Yan had a number in his heart, remained silent, and replied with a smile: "Yes, this is fun, you should pick the strongest to fight me, let's go, take me in!"

Thompson saw that Liu Yan was not flustered at all, a little surprised, and glanced at the subordinates next to him, and they took Liu Yan towards the locker room inside.
