"I just heard someone mention it some time ago, but I don't know much about it. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The three of them ate and drank, and Paul gave a detailed introduction to the game. Liang Bin has introduced the competition system before, and there is nothing surprising. After listening to Paul's introduction, Luo Xiaolong has a deeper understanding of this competition.
Immortal fighting originally originated from the underground black boxing competition, due to the illegal nature of the black boxing competition, coupled with the chaos of the organization, the complexity of personnel and many other reasons, some people of insight who like to fight without armor and basically no rules like black boxing created a competition, this competition was named "tough guy fighting" At first, it was only held in a small area, but with the scientific organization of the event and the reasonable distribution of the prize system, coupled with the gradual improvement of the logistics and medical support institutions, it attracted more and more high-level players to join, and also attracted more and more spectators to watch, under the virtuous circle, the cost of sponsorship has also risen.
At the same time as the event entered the rapid development, it was suppressed and smeared by some competitors such as boxing, judo, taekwondo and other associations, and at the same time, there were some disagreements between the main organizers of the event, and finally the "tough guy fight" was separated into several competitions, the most influential is called the global mixed martial arts competition, which is mainly held in the United States, but also in Europe, Held in South America and Asia, spectators can buy tickets to watch on-site or pay for broadcast signals to watch remotely, the level of blood in this game is relatively low, players are generally injured by abrasions, tears or bruises and other soft injuries, as well as small injuries to fingers, toes and face, serious injuries are rare, and death is even more difficult.
As the saying goes, it's not a big deal to watch the excitement, and there are always some heavy-tasting audiences who like to see the blood flying wildly and even the death of the contestant on the spot.
There are many rules in mixed martial arts competitions, fighters need to wear thin gloves with open fingers, and the division and round system are adopted, and the winning and losing methods are mainly based on calculating the effective parts of the opponent hit by the player.
The rules of tough guy fighting are completely different, two fighters fight in the ring without weight, time, and without any protective gear or gloves, and there are only three rules: no eye insertion, crotch punching, and biting with teeth, all other skills can be used, and the fight must be fought until one side admits defeat or completely loses the ability to resist (maliciously killing opponents is strictly prohibited).
Based on this rule, most of the players in the tough guy fighting game are either dead or injured, before the internal split, there are still enough players to compete, after the split, there is a shortage of players in this side of the game, once a player dies or is injured, it is easy to make the next round of the game go to waste, the game can not be played, naturally there is no audience to watch, and there is no income, under the vicious circle, the tough guy fight is about to stop.
At this time, an unknown medical institution came out and proposed the intention of acquisition, and the organizer who had successfully transformed into "civilized fighting" (heavy audience language) had no intention of operating, and the two sides hit it off, and the tough guy fighting was spun off and transferred to this medical institution. In fact, the transfer is mainly for players who have been suspended due to injury, and other aspects are basically free, because the treatment and living expenses for those players who are injured are also a large expense.
After the medical institution bought it, it changed the name of the competition to immortal fighting, and invested heavily to attract fighters who participated in "civilized fighting" to come and compete. There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and the renamed undead fighting continues to attract loyal hardcore audiences to watch, in many "civilized fights" In the eyes of the organizing committee of the competition, the undead fighting competition became more and more popular for a long time, so that the people who were waiting to see it close down shattered their glasses, and what made these people feel even more incredible was that those players who were covered in injuries like a piece of stinky shit before actually returned to the ring alive, and some of them had their arms or legs crippled for several years, and they actually returned to the same as before.
Since then, the reputation of this previously unheard of medical institution has spread rapidly around the world, and after more than a decade of development, (male) dignitaries and wealthy people from all corners of the world, as well as world-renowned sports institutions such as Olympic Games, FIFA, NBA and other world-renowned sports institutions, have established important partnerships with this medical institution called ND.
Since the establishment of the global medical network, the holding system of immortal fighting has also been reformed, from the previous annual to every four years, and the selection method of the players has also kept pace with the times, from the previous forced poaching in various fighting sports, to today's players in various competition regions take the initiative to sign up to participate, if it were not for the fact that various countries explicitly prohibit immortal fighting in all media (the competition is too bloody), it is estimated that ND can also make a text message to support the audience's favorite player.
In order to limit the number of participants, ND has set up a registration threshold for contestants: 1. Men only, between the ages of 18 and 45; 2. Healthy health (AIDS patients, heart patients, people with drug abuse experience and others are not allowed to register); 3. Each registered contestant needs to pay a registration fee of 10,000 US dollars.
For example, this edition requires participants to lift a barbell weighing 80 kilograms without any assistance, and jumps on a platform with a height of 1 meter without weights, allowing a running distance of 1 meter.
After screening and successful registration, after each round of competition, ND will provide a full body examination, and the injured and sick will receive free treatment, as long as they do not die on the spot, they can basically be completely cured. The top 10 finishers will receive at least $10,000 for each opponent they eliminate, the top 10 finishers in the continent will receive an additional $500,000 in prize money, and the top 10 finishers in the world will receive at least $1 million in prize money in addition to the previous prizes, with the first prize being $50 million. The top 30 players in the final ranking of each competition can receive a free treatment card, and within one year from the date of issuance, anyone (male only) can enjoy free medical treatment in ND with the authorization of the treatment card and the original card owner.
If the player confirms that there is no injury or illness after the end of the competition, the ND will no longer provide free services, and if the player needs to receive treatment services from ND within one year, he can enjoy a 10% discount, and will no longer enjoy the discount after one year.
The paid treatment services provided by ND are very expensive, and there are basically no projects less than 10,000 US dollars, so the people who seek treatment are basically politicians or business tycoons from various countries, as well as outstanding people in various industries, such as football, basketball superstars and other rich people, and ordinary people will not go to ND unless they have to. However, the reason why ND is eaten in all countries around the world, in addition to the miraculous level of treatment, there is also the chivalrous spirit of traditional Chinese martial artists, ND cooperates with the International Disabled Persons' Federation, every year tens of thousands of disabled people around the world get free treatment, and a large proportion of disabled people can get rid of disability and return to normal life.
