Chapter 266: Celebrity Wild Card (Supplement 5)

Snooker Huaxia Open Hou Muyun naturally knows, this is one of the eight snooker professional ranking tournaments determined by the World Professional Snooker Association, when I was in college, I liked to play snooker and watched related competitions, and I also knew many of the world's top snooker athletes in these competitions.

For wild card players, Hou Muyun also knows that Ding Hui won the first ranking tournament championship with the wild card of the China Open.

As for this celebrity wild card, it was really the first time he had heard of it, and he had never heard of snooker having stars in the entertainment industry crossover to participate in the competition.

After listening to Liang Wen's explanation, I finally understood, it turned out that this star wild card has only emerged in recent years, and the purpose is to promote snooker, in other words, it is really the influence of snooker's competition has been declining in recent years - and it is relatively a niche sport.

Although in the past ten years, the rapid development of snooker in China has become a bright performance of snooker, but it has declined in recent years.

So in recent years, some people have proposed to invite celebrities, especially superstars, to participate in the competition to increase influence, at first it was an experiment in some low-level events, and found that the effect was really good, and then slowly increased the level, and this year is the first time that the eight ranking tournaments have introduced this "system".

In the previous ranking tournaments that have ended, they have also achieved quite good results, and this time the Huaxia Open will naturally continue to be used.

As for what kind of celebrities are invited to participate in cross-border competitions, there are two principles, one is to have a certain snooker foundation and the higher the technology, the better, and the other is to have a certain influence and the higher the popularity, the better.

Ding Hui said very bluntly: "Among Chinese celebrities, there are many good golf players, but there are really not many good snookers." As far as we know, there are only a dozen of them who can play snooker, but except for Nie Pan, Zhang Weikang, former national football players Xu Liang and Hong Lei, almost all of them are fakes. Liang Wen and I both have the right to recommend, and there are not many celebrities who can recommend, to be honest, the two of us originally wanted to recommend Lao Nie, and we also mentioned it to Lao Nie, but Lao Nie was obviously not very interested. And this time to record the show, the two of us feel that you are very suitable. ”

Nie Pan was on the side and said, "Monkey, I think Lao Ding is right, you are very suitable, and more suitable than me." Then he smiled and said, "Moreover, you have game experience and good mental quality." ”

Hou Muyun was speechless: "How can I have any competition experience!"

Nie Pan said: "Last time, one person swept the Neon Brain King team, and that was not experience. ”

Hou Muyun was even more speechless: "Can it be the same game?"

Nie Pan laughed and said, "I think it's about the same." During the recording process just now, I found out that your skills are very good, and you are obviously hiding your strength. God knows if a pervert like you really has the level of a top snooker athlete, maybe, there will be another one-person sweeping drama. ”

Hou Muyun rolled his eyes.

After they laughed, Ding Hui said to Hou Muyun: "Boss Hou, the celebrity wild card of this China Open can be regarded as a contribution to the promotion of snooker." And, if you don't go, we really can't find a better person to go. To put it mildly, this is also a face project of our country's snooker sport, and the celebrity wild cards in the previous stops have performed very well, and there must be something to see in our country, right?"

Hou Muyun smiled and asked, "You just think I'm hiding my strength?"

Ding Hui and Liang Wen nodded: "We still have this bit of eyesight." ”

Hou Muyun thought for a moment and said, "Since you all said so, what else can I say." I just don't know if you two recommend it?"

Ding Hui said with a smile: "If it's someone else, it's hard to say, but if you or Nie Pan, it's nine out of ten." The fame, influence and image of the two of you, there is no reason for the Taiwan Federation to refuse. ”

Hou Muyun smiled bitterly: "Lao Ding, you don't have to speak with such a conscience, right? You want to say that Lao Nie's image is good, I believe it, but if you say that my image is good, I don't even believe in myself." My image is inseparable from the sassy/wave/cheap/pit. ”

Ding Hui was stunned for a moment and quipped: "The image I am talking about is purely referring to appearance." ”

Hou Muyun laughed: "Then if you want to say that, then I must be handsome!"

Nie Pan held his forehead.

In fact, Ding Hui and Liang Wen feel that Hou Muyun's image is not all Sao/Lang/Cheap/pit, at least the neon brain duel that Nie Pan said and the Chinese culture that Hou Muyun loved in the live broadcast are very suitable for representing Chinese celebrities in the China Open.

In addition, Hou Muyun's comics and novels have created miracles in neon and North America respectively, which can be regarded as the light of the Chinese.

There are many sports stars who can win glory for Huaxia abroad, but there are not many stars in the entertainment industry.

Hou Muyun is definitely one!

When he first drew out the "Snooker Skill Card", Hou Muyun really didn't think about using this skill card to participate in the competition, at most he took it out to show off during the live broadcast. After all, it is a competition that requires a lot of time savings and energy precipitation, and it is not easy to participate in snooker competitions, just to get a professional athlete, it takes a lot of time, and this is one of the most fundamental reasons why I never thought about participating in the competition, there is no time!

It's just that how can you think of getting such an invitation to participate in the recording program for the promotion of "Xuanyuan Sword Master", which does not need to be qualified as a professional athlete first, but can participate directly, and directly participate in the world's top events!

Hou Muyun thought about such an opportunity and felt that he should not miss it.

It must be the most important thing to brush up points with this, and secondly, even if it is a play, and the time before and after this event is not much, even if it is from the first round to the final, it will take up to 6 days.

Of course, whether you can make it to the finals or whether you can be brushed out in the first round depends on how powerful the SR-level cards are.

And if he really got a celebrity wild card, Hou Muyun's urine would naturally not be clumsy in such a game.

"Since you agreed, then you can stop hiding it, let's go find a place to play a few games. ”

"Done. ”

Hou Muyun, Nie Pan, Ding Hui, and Liang Wen went to a snooker club.

The next day, Hou Muyun and Nie Pan left Hangzhou and went to Xiamen to participate in the recording of "Running Man".

On the plane, Nie Pan sat with Hou Muyun.

"Lao Nie, why have you been looking at me strangely since you got on the plane?"

"I said monkey, are you still human, and last night was so brave!"

"I said Lao Nie, although Xiao Honghua and Huo Zunshang are both married, but you still have Tang Yu! You make me very embarrassed like this, after all, I am also a master person. ”

"I said snooker!"

"Finger this, scare me!"
