Chapter 171: Seeded Player

After returning to the ranch, Shi Lei hugged Laura and lay on the comfortable sofa in the living room, and the two of them stepped on the hairball with their bare feet very unscrupulously, feeling the wonderful touch of the living real fur.

And the hairballs under the feet of the two of them are lying on the ground comfortably, with a cheap expression of enjoyment on their faces, lazily staring at the TV like the male and female hosts.

"Looks like you're having a great time chatting today, is there any good news? Or was it stuffy before? Shi Lei asked Laura with a smile.

"No, I went to see the store and the planning and design together, and I learned a lot of things, and it happened to be used to design new styles, so it wasn't boring at all, but quite novel.

I realized that there are so many things to consider when opening a store, whether it is a store or a person. Laura explained a little coquettishly, she didn't want Shi Lei to leave any mustard in her heart.

"Actually, it's because I didn't see Maggie today, I had a good chat with her, and she has promised that she will come over to help me when the contract ends, but it will be the second half of the year, so she can't help with the preparation of the studio, basically when she comes, the studio will complete the preparations.

But I'm glad I have good girlfriends who can come over and help. Laura still can't hide her excitement.

"yes, that's something to be happy about. Congratulations first, someone has fought side by side with you, of course, you and I will still be your strongest backing. Shi Lei tightened Laura's stairs.

"Well, I know you're the best." Laura smiled and kissed Shi Lei.

A few days later, Shi Lei and Laura in the two-person world returned to their parents' new house again, and the place of the private restaurant had been handed over, and the design drawings had already been done with the joint efforts of my father and Chinese designers. After the designer polished the renderings, it looked very beautiful, and my father immediately made a decision. That's how to decorate.

When Shi Lei and they came, my father had already started the decoration, and my father went to the store every day to see if it was decorated according to his own ideas, as for the quality of the decoration, there was naturally a supervisor to be responsible.

Laura can also go to see occasionally, responsible for the improvement of some details, Shi Lei simply can't intervene when he goes, it is a professional decoration company here that enters, and his father Shi Yi just needs to explain his requirements. Naturally, the workers sent by the company are responsible for the rest of the work.

Most of the time, Laura continues to design her parents' new home, occasionally participating in the renovation process, giving advice, and gaining some experience.

You can also chat with your mother about the dishes, although Laura is not a qualified chef, but she is an authentic foodie, and she knows the tastes of the locals very well, so she can also provide some appropriate advice to her mother. By the way, you can also study how to plate and how to make beautiful recipes with your mother.

And Shi Lei is relatively easy, and he doesn't even have the task of being a driver, and Laura must have a driver's license. Because everyone in Midi uses their driver's license as ID, it is basically a must-have thing for everyone, and my father also took the time to test out the driver's license here.

Shi Lei, who was completely liberated, ran to the Rock Fitness Center by himself. Continue with Master Kane? Liu learned martial arts skills together and sparred with Tony from time to time, but Tony spent most of his time in the gym. Every time Shi Lei came to train, Tony was already here, so Shi Lei inevitably suffered a lot of eyes from his master.

Shi Lei also took the opportunity to inspect the students of the Rock Fitness Center to see if there were any suitable candidates who could be set up as the banner of the rock and represent the rock to compete in major competitions.

After nearly two weeks of careful observation, Shi Lei finally found two seedlings that he felt suitable, from two different venues in the rock.

One is a Brazilian with a funny name, Forest? Freshshrimp, which translates to fresh shrimp (a guest appearance for readers of this book and also a local author), must have been fishermen from his ancestors, otherwise he would not have given such a name.

In addition to the world-famous football and carnival, Brazil is also rich in hot supermodels and the world's top fighters, whether it is UFC or K1, IBF and WBC, or even WWE's fighting ring, Brazilians are active, so this country has exported a lot of well-known fighters to the world fighting stage, and Brazil's fighting level is also first-class in the world, even not inferior to world powers like Midi.

In this regard, on the contrary, the domestic ones are relatively poor, there are very few fighters who have really stepped onto the world stage stage, and the results are not very ideal, of course, the current boxing champion makes people see some hope, but this cannot cover up the shortcomings of the Chinese people in this regard.

Thinking about how many people there are in the country, how many professional athletes there are, and why there are so few world-class martial artists compared to a relatively small country like Brazil, this is something worth reflecting on.

This martial arts enthusiast called "Xian Xiami" practices the traditional European and American fighting skills - boxing, which has been very rapid in Brazil in recent years.

This style can be seen in Brazilian-born MMA fighters, such as the well-known mixed martial arts master Wonderray, nicknamed "The Ape-Man", who likes to rain down dense and deadly punches to break through his opponent's defenses and take them out.

The "fresh shrimp" children's shoes also adhere to such characteristics, the fists are dense, the blow is strong, and the body is also abundant enough, relatively speaking, the slight deficiency is that there is a lack of sufficient targeted professional training, defense and dodging are also lacking, and the key is that Yan zhòng lacks actual combat experience.

After Shi Lei saw the training of fresh shrimp, he was still very satisfied with his appearance, the training was very hard and serious, and the style was very tough, giving people the feeling of daring to fight, of course, it was not a tendon attack, in general, it was a manufacturable material, and it was also one of the candidates recommended by the coach of the boxing gym.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Rock Fitness Center, Shi Lei told the coaches of various martial arts gyms these plans, hoping that they could pay more attention to those competitive fighting enthusiasts, and if they felt that there were people worthy of training to become professional fighters, they could recommend them.

The rocks plan to unearth a bunch of great fighters and send them to the world stage as much as possible, while making a name for themselves on the rocks. It also gives them an opportunity to turn their hobby into a career, which can be said to be an absolute win-win situation.

The income level of fresh shrimp does not seem to be very high, but he still insists on hiring a boxing coach as a personal trainer, which shows that he really likes this sport and absolutely loves boxing.

Of course, this is also because the coach of the rock is really good, such as the coach of the boxing gym, who was a member of the coaching staff of boxing champion Tyson before, and the level is definitely worthy of recognition.

In addition to the Brazilian boxer, Shi Lei has another candidate in mind, and that is what Master Kane said last time. One of the named disciples of his original community, whom he felt would be a pity, was a Chinese American named Allen (the reader of this book).

Alan had just graduated from high school and had already started working outside, in order to save some money for his family, his grades were not good enough, so he simply gave up the opportunity to go to college and started a self-reliant life early.

Alan works at one of the Chinese restaurants around the rocks, he is in charge of the night shift, and he starts working before dinner. So during the day, he also had the opportunity to come and learn boxing with Master Kane.

Judging from the contact between Shi Lei and Allen, this is a down-to-earth and hard-working young man. There are not many bad things that young people in this age group are greedy for, and not only is the martial arts training very hard. I heard that I do my job very seriously, and I often get praise from my boss, and the corresponding salary is gradually increasing.

It was only after he had been working for a while that he continued to come to the Rock to continue his studies with Master Kane. Because he couldn't afford the rocks before.

Shi Lei is very satisfied with Allen's appearance, and his heart is more inclined to Allen, to be honest. For no other reason, just because Alan is his own compatriot.

Shi Lei wants to set up a benchmark like Allen, so that all Midi people realize that the kung fu masters of the Chinese people are not only in movies and literary works, but they will not work in reality.

Of course, this is difficult, it requires a long-term training process, and it is definitely not something that can be achieved overnight, but Shi Lei hopes to at least start doing it now.

In fact, Shi Lei himself is a better choice, with Shi Lei's current fighting skills and physical elements, as long as he is not dragged into the ground grappling by his opponent and exerts his own strength, he can basically easily solve all opponents.

It's just that with Shi Lei's lazy temperament of being afraid of trouble, after the results are really released, there will be more annoying things, Shi Lei is too late to hide Qingjing, how can he run out to find this fun, so looking for Allen, a junior brother, can not only realize his idea of playing the prestige of the countrymen, but also not cause trouble to himself, and can completely change Allen's living state, which can be said to be counted in one fell swoop.

Of course, Tony is actually not bad, but after asking Tony himself's opinion, this idea cannot be implemented, he just loves martial arts, he does not need to go to the ring to prove himself, and on the side of Midi, he can only participate in UFC competitions.

Tony's skills in striking grappling are sufficient, but he doesn't know anything about ground fighting, and with his physique, he can only participate in heavyweight or light heavyweight matches, and the opponents are some professional fighters with high overall skills and rich competition experience, and they will definitely drag Tony into ground fights, and Tony can't guarantee that the fight will end before then.

And for these grappling techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or something, Tony, who has always liked to be straight, has no love at all, and doesn't want to touch these things at all, let alone have to learn these skills by heart.

So all things considered, Tony turned down Tiyì to represent the rocks. Although he actually likes the process of competing with others, even if he has never lost and never won against Shi Lei, he is also happy to learn from Shi Lei.

Although the result every time Tony was abused by Shi Lei, Tony enjoyed the process of fighting and didn't care much about the result, but often discussed each other's gains and losses with Shi Lei.

During this period of investigation, Shi Lei also unexpectedly met an acquaintance on the rock, a person he thought should have appeared on the field. (To be continued......) R1292
