962 [The King Behind the Scenes].
Near White Elephant Boxing Stadium---
Pattaya is bordered by the sea and there are also many rivers in the city.
These rivers intertwine to form a vast waterway, like Venice in Italy.
It's just that compared to the elegant moon ferries in Venice, almost all of them are very down-to-earth wooden boats with mechanical motors.
At this moment, Song Zhichao is standing on a motor boat, a subordinate with a tattoo of "Black Tiger" on his arm is squatting at the bow of the boat to steer, and another subordinate with "Qinglong" on his arm is squatting at the stern to protect Song Zhichao.
The boat beetled along the river towards the city center.
Along the way, both sides of the river are Thai-style small bamboo houses, or log cabins.
The corners of these houses are supported by giant logs in the river, and the planks that extend below form natural stalls selling everything from papaya, durian and coconut.
A few naughty children jumped into the river, splashed in waves, and frolicked in the river.
Some naughty ones squatted on the extended deck of their house, took off their pants and shit directly into the river, and the adults shouted at him, saying that it was too stinky and told him to get away, and the naughty children moved their buttocks and pulled them correctly.
Song Zhichao was dressed in white, wearing a white top hat, and holding a red sandalwood civilization staff, standing gracefully on a small wooden boat.
Seeing him, the Thai vendors on the shore shouted at him from time to time, selling their wares.
They are all poor, and they all know who is rich, and they will not let go of every opportunity to do business.
There was a dark-skinned man who was the smartest, he saw Song Zhichao coming towards his stall by boat, he was busy holding a machete, cutting a coconut, then inserting a straw, running to the river, stretching out his hand to Song Zhichao, sneering, giving a thumbs up, and muttering in Thai: "Top quack!"
Song Zhichao stopped the wooden boat, took the coconut and took a sip, feeling very refreshing, and then took out a $10 bill from his arms and handed it over.
The dark-skinned man happily took it, clasped his hands together, and couldn't stop expressing his gratitude.
You know, in this era, 10 US dollars can be exchanged for 260 baht, and a coconut can usually only be sold for 10 baht at most, and dark-skinned men are definitely making a lot of money.
Song Zhichao held the coconut in one hand and bit the straw in his mouth to let the small wooden boat continue to move.
The Thai hawkers who saw him generous shouted at him even more frantically, and some beautiful little girls even twisted their waists, swung their arms, and began to dance--- the kind of very Thai dance, the purpose was to attract Song Zhichao's attention.
Song Zhichao thought it was interesting, so he couldn't help but delay for a while, and of course, he also threw a lot of money out.
Soon, the small wooden boat he was on was full of durian, coconut, mango...... All kinds of fruits, heavy.
The poor Thai street vendors were smiling, holding the dollars given to them by Song Zhichao, and they were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths.
"Buddha bless, kind guest!"
"I hope you come often, honored guest!"
"Uncle, I love you!"
The Thais, who had benefited from the benefits, yelled at Song as he left on the boat.
Song Zhichao let the wooden boat move on.
The Thai attendant at the helm in front was puzzled, grabbed his curly hair, and asked Song Zhichao: "Master, these things are not valuable, but you gave them so many dollars......
Song Zhichao smiled, casually threw away the used coconut in his hand, he dipped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, wiped his hands, and said, "Ah Hu, do you know, what is the easiest thing to buy in this world?"
The attendant named "Ah Hu" stared at him with wide eyes.
Song Zhichao continued: "The happiness and happiness of others--- you only need to pay a small amount of money to make others happy and happy all day, this is the most precious thing!" His chin was slightly raised, and he looked up at the sky in the distance.

Downtown Pattaya, Campari Building---
As one of Pattaya's most well-known commercial buildings, Campari Tower is home to many of the city's largest companies, including tourism companies, export companies, and of course, entertainment companies that contract Muay Thai events.
And among all the competitive entertainment companies, "Hurricane Entertainment" is the largest. It is reported that the entertainment company is in charge of 18 of Pattaya's largest Muay Thai stadiums, which can hold hundreds of events a year and millions of dollars in and out of funds every year.
And the just-concluded White Elephant Boxing Stadium is actually under the umbrella of Hurricane Entertainment.
Now---
In the general manager's office of Hurricane Entertainment, Sha Kun, as the company's executive general manager, is sitting in the boss's chair.
He was thin and thin, his cheeks so thin that his cheekbones were even more high, and his eyes were bright and shining.
In his seat, Sha Kun was biting a cigar in his mouth and looking down at Nachai, who was sitting on his knees.
That's right, it's Nachai.
Nachai, who had just lost the match at the White Elephant Stadium.
Nachai still had the scars on his face after the fight, but there was no trace of anger or remorse on his face, on the contrary, an indescribable calmness.
Next to him, stood a big man in black, who was Sha Kun's subordinate and the head of security of the entertainment company.
Security guards like the man in black are almost all carefully selected by Sha Kun, at least in Nachai's opinion, the other party's strength is by no means below him.
There's no way, there is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger in the Thai Muay Thai world, in fact, those who go to the ring to fight are some hard-working people haha, like the man in black, because of his good skills, he was basically recruited as a bodyguard by a big guy like Sha Kun.
"Nachai, you played very well in this boxing match! I said it on the phone just now, and the boss is very happy!" Sha Kun bit his cigar, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said with a smile to Nachai, who was kneeling on the ground.
Nachai didn't dare to speak.
But he was very curious, a big guy like Sha Kun was already very good, and there was a boss behind him.
As for Nachai's obedient and fake boxing this time, he was also forced to --- who made him want to make more money and marry his beloved woman Ali.
And Hurricane Entertainment owner Sha Kun promised that if he was obedient, even if he lost the boxing match, he would be escorted to the Muay Thai Club in Bangkok.
"Although I have only been in charge of this entertainment company for a short time, I will do what I say, and I will definitely fulfill what I promised you!" As he spoke, he saw Sha Kun open the drawer, took out a wad of dollars, got up from the boss's chair, walked around the desk, and limped to Nachai.
"Bang!" Sha Kun threw the dollar to Nachai and said, "You count, it's 5,000 dollars in total, isn't that right?"
Guess where you dare to really count, and besides, a company as big as others won't care about this money.
Immediately, Nachai put the money in his arms and said, "Don't count, I believe in you, Lord Shakun!"
"Hehe, it's not that you believe me, it's that you believe in our boss to --- and he told me that you have to be honest in doing business!" Sha Kun seemed to admire the boss behind him, and his words were full of respect.
Nachai was even more curious, and he didn't know who the big boss behind this company was.
"Alright, you can go. Remember, you have to keep your mouth shut after receiving the money! If the matter of your fake boxing leaks out, our company will still be open for business, but you ...... It will be torn apart by those angry gamblers!" Sha Kun said with a combination of hard and soft threats.
Nachai folded his hands and saluted, "Yes--- I understand!" After speaking, he stepped back and turned to go out.
……
Nai guessed out the door, reached out and touched the $5,000 in his arms, and felt hard and still there.
So he put his mind at ease, knowing that he wasn't dreaming.
In fact, Nachai was initially reluctant to fight fake boxing, and as a Muay Thai fighter, he has the pride of being a brave man.
But in the face of reality, that pride is vulnerable.
Sighing, Nachai walked forward, and at this moment he noticed that the decoration of this entertainment company was very luxurious, even the corridor was covered with crimson carpet, soft, long, and comfortable to walk on, like stepping on clouds.
The walls around the hallway are also covered with beautiful wallpaper, and there are fighters of all classes signed by the entertainment company.
There are a lot of Nachai who know him, because they are all his idols, they are all famous in Pattaya, and then they are packaged by the hurricane company and sent to Bangkok and Chiang Mai, and eventually become the most popular Muay Thai fighter in Thailand and even internationally.
Nachai hopes that one day his own portrait will be hung on this wall, and he will be able to make his way out of Pattaya and into Bangkok.
Just when Nachai was thinking nonsense, he scolded, as if he was blocking someone else's way, or almost hit someone.
At the same time, an arm with a black tiger reached over and tried to grab him and push him aside.
Nachai didn't care, he was the best Muay Thai fighter in Pattaya, and as soon as his shoulder slipped, he wanted to remove the hand that was grabbing his shoulder, but before he could do it, the hand had already grabbed his collarbone at the shoulder like lightning, and with a force, he forcibly threw Nachai out of a position.
Nachai was horrified.
He never expected that the other party's skills would be so fast and sharp, and he was powerless to resist.
That's when ---
"Ah Hu, don't be rude!"
As he spoke, the black tiger man who was hostile to Nachai just now dodged away, and a man in white appeared from behind him.
The man in white was dressed as a gentleman, carrying a civilized stick and wearing a white top hat, and at this moment a handsome face under the top hat was looking at Nachai with a smile and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't hurt you, did I?"
"Uh, no. After Nachai finished speaking, he couldn't help but blush.
I'm a boxer, and I'm being asked like this.
"That's good!" After the man in white finished speaking, he turned his head and blamed the black tiger man and said, "Ah Hu, you are too impulsive. ”
The black tiger man seemed to be very afraid of the man in white, and bowed his head and said nothing.
Behind the man in white, there was still a person standing, who said loudly at this moment: "Master, Ah Hu is also to protect you--- this person almost bumped into you just now, please forgive him for the sake of Ah Hu's loyalty." ”
The man in white glanced at the other party, then turned his face to Ah Hu and said, "For Ah Long's sake of interceding for you, it's good to do it yourself!"
Ah Hu glanced gratefully at his partner Ah Long.
Aaron nodded at him.
Nai guessed that the reason why he was almost scratched by the other party was because he almost hit the man in white.
Is he so honorable?
Is it more honorable than the king of Thailand?
Nachai was full of slander, and just wanted to say a few words, but saw that the man in white ignored him anymore and left with two of his subordinates.
Nachai: "......"
I couldn't help but mutter: "The shelf is so big!"
