"Of course I remember, he opened a martial arts club, what the hell is he doing?" Liu Yan hated that Thompson very much in his heart, he was interested in interests, and he did things by unscrupulous means, if it weren't for Liu Yan's high kung fu, he might have died in Meiguo last time.

"Thompson approached me yesterday and said that there had been a drop in attendance at the fight club recently and that he was going to find a way to increase the heat. He had the idea of holding a fighting match between Huaxia and Meiguo, which would not only allow more masters to show up, but also attract more people to the club to watch. ”

Hearing this, Liu Yan couldn't help but smile and shook his head, some people are indeed flexible, and they really have a set of going off the rails, this Thompson is like this, enough to toss.

Seeing that Liu Yan didn't speak, the Grim Reaper thought that Liu Yan didn't want to pay attention to Thompson, so he continued: "Mr. Liu, if you find it boring, then forget it, I will refuse him......"

"Wait, Death, you make me think. Liu Yan's last trip to Meiguo was generally quite pleasant, and after he left, he also had an impulse in his heart, that is, he wanted to find the top masters of Meiguo and learn from each other.

However, he just thought about it, the time was not ripe at all, and the relationship between Huaxia and Meiguo has always been very sensitive, and there are not many people-to-people exchanges, and with Liu Yan's status, it is not enough to take on the heavy responsibility of communication.

However, Thompson can be said to be an old fritter in Meiguo, he is the owner of a fighting club himself, and he deals with all kinds of forces in the three sects and nine streams, if he takes the lead, it can really promote martial arts exchanges between the two countries.

"Death, what exactly did Thompson say, can you tell me about it?"

The Grim Reaper seemed to be interested in Liu Yan's tone, so he told him what Thompson had said to him, and after Liu Yan heard it, he put forward three conditions.

"Death, you convey it to Thompson for me, I can promise this martial arts exchange competition, but I have three conditions. ”

The Grim Reaper was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Okay, you say, I'll convey it." ”

"The first condition: the place where the match is played cannot be held in his club.

The second condition: the referee must be from a country other than Huaxia and Meiguo.

The third condition: it can only be broadcast live by the official media of Huaxia and Meiguo, that is, it must not be broadcast by other media. ”

Liu Yan's three conditions are actually reasonable requirements, if it weren't for Thompson, he wouldn't have said it so early.

But Thompson is an old fox, and when dealing with him, he must say ugly things in front of him, otherwise he may end up in his way.

The Grim Reaper smiled, "Okay, I'll tell him what you said, as long as you're willing to agree, you're off to a good start." ”

After hanging up the phone, Liu Yan sat down and thought for a while, this time the martial arts exchange with Mei Guo is different from the competition between the two countries, there is not so much feud between the two countries, so the atmosphere of the competition must be friendly, and Huaxia is going with a learning attitude.

Before the appearance of cultivators, Mei Guo was the leader in the world in ordinary people's fighting competitions, and Huaxia started very late, and no one was even able to stand on Mei Guo's fighting ring to achieve results.

So Liu Yan decided that this competition would be held in two parts, and the cultivators and ordinary people would be divided into two groups, so that it could not only promote the fighting level of ordinary people in Huaxia, but also compare the gap between the cultivators of the two countries.

He was thinking about it, when another call came in, and he saw that it was still a number from Mei Guolai, but it was not Death's, an unfamiliar number.

He pressed the answer button, and Thompson's exaggerated and enthusiastic voice came from the other end of the phone: "Oh, is it Mr. Liu Yan? We haven't seen each other for a long time, and I heard the Grim Reaper say that you agreed to play with us?"

"It turned out to be Mr. Thompson, I didn't promise to play with you, it was the Huaxia team and the Meiguo team to play, can you organize it?" Liu Yan didn't want to be used by Thompson, but wanted to use Thompson.

"No problem, with my connections in the sand shaker, it's still easy to organize a competition!"

"Did Death convey my meaning to you? ”

"He told me that I can meet your conditions, but I also have two conditions, and I want to talk to you. "Thompson, old fox, won't be easily controlled.

"You say. ”

"All the box office income from this competition belongs to me, and in addition, all the players, including the players from Huaxia, I can meet them separately to talk about the signing, and you are not allowed to stop them. "Thompson is a visionary move, and the reason why he built a bridge to organize this tournament is actually for his own fighting club, and if he can recruit a few Chinese fighters to compete in the club, it will definitely attract a large number of spectators.

Liu Yan pondered for a moment and replied, "Yes, but I want you to sign a formal contract with the Huaxia players to ensure their income and safety." ”

"That's for sure, my club has regular contracts, and those fighters are my employees, how could I hurt them?

Liu Yan was not so stupid, and said seriously: "Don't forget, the Grim Reaper is my good friend, how did you trap the Grim Reaper in the first place, don't think I don't know!"

Thompson smiled wryly and argued: "Mr. Liu Yan, you can't say that, but he begged me to sign the contract at the beginning, and I didn't force him!"

"You're taking advantage of the fire to rob! Pure black-hearted businessman, what else do you have to say? Let me tell you, after this competition, the contract of the Huaxia player must pass through my hand, and if I don't agree, no one is allowed to sign with you!" Liu Yan calculated that Thompson urgently needed this competition, so he didn't bargain with him at all, and made a decision directly according to his own ideas.

Thompson was helpless, he didn't dare to fight against Liu Yan, in case this matter was messed up, his loss would be too great, and Liu Yan would have nothing to lose.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, since you've agreed, I'm going to start preparing, do you have any other requirements?" Thompson hoped that the sooner the game, the better.

"There are no other requirements, just those three conditions, as long as they are met. ”

"Okay, you must be satisfied, you can rest assured!" Thompson agreed.

Liu Yan firmly grasped the initiative of this competition in his own hands, and then he didn't have to worry about it, he only needed to select a few Chinese players and lead him to Meiguo to compete.

As for which player will stay in Meiguo, Liu Yan will follow his personal wishes at that time, if he really wants to stay in Meiguo to make money, Liu Yan will help him find a reliable club and sign a contract, of course, that's a story later.

After the project of the shopping mall won the bid, Liu Yan basically didn't have to worry about it, and the rest was the time for Mr. Wan to show his talents, and this big project was enough for the entire company to work for several months.

Thompson's efficiency was really fast, and within a week, he told Liu Yan that the preparations for the game were ready.

According to Liu Yan's conditions, he rented a gymnasium as a competition venue, which did not belong to his club.

Second, he invited several international referees from Europe as members of the referee team for this competition, which can basically ensure the fairness of the game.

The third condition, he took the initiative to lobby the largest sports media in Meiguo, T NT TV, to broadcast the game live, which is the most influential TV station, and Chinese audiences who like to watch basketball NBA are familiar with T NT.

Liu Yan saw that Thompson's work efficiency was really high, and he also began to operate, first he asked Director Lu to come forward and help him do two things.

First of all, let Director Lu say hello to CCTV in the capital, this martial arts competition between the two countries, Huaxia's CCTV will do the exclusive live broadcast of Huaxia, what is needed is this kind of authority.

In addition, Liu Yan also asked Director Lu to help check the information of those referees, he wanted to ensure the fairness of this game, in case Thompson secretly cheated and found a few fake referees to favor Mei Guo, then he would suffer a big loss.

Director Lu agreed to Liu Yan's request one by one, in fact, what Liu Yan did was also to help Director Lu complete his work, and it stands to reason that the national sports department should communicate with each other, discuss, and finally determine the game between the two sides.

But these jobs have been done by Liu Yan and Thompson, Director Lu naturally can't stand idly by, he also has to fulfill his responsibilities as a sports official, and Liu Yan has always been appreciated by Director Lu, and the two can be regarded as mutually fulfilling.

Liu Yan was not idle in the next few days, he was discussing the rules of the game with Thompson, and finally decided that the team competition would continue to use a best-of-five system, with six rounds in each game and three minutes in each round.

The list of players made Liu Yan spend a lot of brains, although he wanted to win this competition, it was also one of his purposes to train more newcomers, so he thought about it and decided not to send Old Man Liao Feng, but would take him as a coaching staff.

Liao Feng was injured by Kawaguchi last time, although he has basically recovered now, but after all, he is old, and it will take time to fully recover.

The list of players is related to Ning, Wu Bo, Sui Dongliang, Shi Kuan, and several masters of the Houtian Realm in the martial arts hall as alternates.

When Liu Yan announced the news in the martial arts hall, the students were all excited, for ordinary people, especially martial arts practitioners, they are always the most enthusiastic about the competition between countries, such as the Olympic Games every four years, which is the strongest period of national cohesion.

The selected students in the list were even more excited, but they were also very worried, worried that if they didn't play well, they would lose face to the country, Liu Yan saw the change in mood from their faces, so he encouraged them.

"As the saying goes, raising soldiers for a thousand days, using soldiers for a while, we have trained for so long, and now is the time when the motherland needs us. But don't carry the burden on your back, don't take the results of the game too seriously, just give full play to what you usually train and do your best, after all, this is just a game, not a real war!"

After listening to Liu Yan's words, the students' mood calmed down a little, and then they asked a lot of questions, because most of them had never been abroad, let alone Meiguo.
