Chapter 142: Las Vegas, an American casino
The KA show is the pinnacle of Cirque du Soleil's more than 30 years of experience, and the visual effects of the whole show are breathtaking, with the cornices walking on the 90-degree rotating screen and the life skipping rope on the wire ring are classics.
The high-tech stage built with a huge amount of money can rotate arbitrarily in the air, turn horizontally into a flowing desert, turn vertically to take Lingbo microstep, sea storms, sky, icebergs, forests and other scenes appear in turn, with lighting, sound effects, the scene effect is not too good! Each seat has a horn that plays music, and it's like the mobile IMAX of the theater world.
"Liu Liu, do you want to go out for a cigarette together?" Chen Chumo asked in a low voice.
"I'm okay, if I can withstand it, I won't go." Liu Liu's eyes stared at the performance on the stage and said without blinking.
Compared with cigarettes, it is obvious that the KA show is more attractive to the current Liu Liu. Besides, it's hard to make an appointment with Li Zijun, how can you easily let go of the opportunity for intimate contact?
Damn, this Liu Liu's usual look quite clever, but I didn't expect my IQ to drop to negative today, and I didn't even hear the meaning of my words. Alas, that's it, the hero is sad to pass the beauty pass, so let's go out alone.
Yang Ming and his gang were also very fascinated by drama, and they didn't notice Chen Chumo's actions at all, so no one went out with Chen Chumo.
In fact, Chen Chumo didn't really want to go out to smoke, but wanted to go to the gambling hall to play a few games. I am an unemployed homeless person and earn some pocket money.
There are only a few thousand dollars left in her trouser pocket, Xiao Xiao is now her prospective girlfriend, why should she buy her a few gifts. Moreover, she has always regarded herself as a local tyrant, the gift cannot be too cold, and she will continue to stay in Las Vegas for the next few days, this money is not enough to spend, so Chen Chumo thought of this way to make a fortune.
Aomen Chen Chumo had been to Zhou Tingting's sister and brother once before when he was in Hong Kong, and he felt shocked enough, and he didn't want to compare with Las Vegas in the deep desert of the southern United States. Walking around the hotel, there are thousands of slot machines in one hall, plus a variety of gaming tables, and the casinos in Huaxia Aomen are not so many together.
What's the best thing to do? Chen Chumo hesitated about the many gambling games, and none of them had a full chance of winning. Well, let's try your luck first, and play whichever one is lucky.
After playing poker and slot machines, Chen Chumo lost half of it, and his heart hurt so much that he wanted to cry without tears. Can't lose anymore, there's only such a little money left, if you lose it all, you will lose face in front of Xiao Xiao, Chen Chumo decided to play all in on the 21 poker card once!
"Hey buddy, why are you here? I looked behind you a few times and thought I was wrong? A broad palm slapped on Chen Chumo's shoulder.
Nima is really unlucky, I don't know that when gambling, everyone is taboo to pat themselves on the shoulder? Who, I don't know anyone with an English accent in the United States!
Turning around, a dark face came into view, fierce and vicious, with a familiar scar on his forehead, Chen Chumo recognized this strong guy at a glance.
"Thomas, how did you end up here, what a coincidence!" Chen Chumo got up and high-fived the man behind him and greeted him.
"Why am I not here, this is where I eat all year round, Huaxia Aomen only passes once in a while!" Thomas said as he fisted.
is an opponent on the field, and a friend off the field, although they have fought to the death on the field, but after all, there is no personal grudge between the two. For the Chinese man in front of him, Thomas was still very convinced, not only resisted a few punches from himself, but also himself. You must know that so far, Thomas has only lost two of his 53 underground boxing careers, one of which was lost to Chen Chumo, and the only time he was knocked out was due to Chen Chumo!
"Oh, I almost forgot about your profession!" Chen Chumo smiled awkwardly.
"I said why did Daniel come to Las Vegas and not go to the ring to take a look, it's too boring to play dozens of cards here, right? Let's go, I'll take you in, and the minimum bet in it is $10,000, which is much more fun than here. Thomas couldn't help but say, pulling Chen Chumo and walking to the infield.
Damn, $10,000 minimum? Lao Tzu is now worth more than 2,000 US dollars, how to play? can't let Thomas know his embarrassment, Chen Chumo is bitter!
After a while, Thomas took his VIP membership card through several heavily guarded gates and led Chen Chumo to a boxing ring. A 30-square-meter standard boxing ring was set up in the middle of the arena, surrounded by thousands of seats, and the decoration was gorgeous and decent, much better than that of the Aomen. There were a few people sitting in the seats, as if waiting for the next boxing match to begin.
"It's the best ring in the country, and it's where a lot of big fights are held, and it's going to be broadcast live to the world!" Thomas introduced the venue like a master, and Chen Chumo listened to it with relish.
"Hey, Thomas, when did you become a bustard, look at your posture to retire as a fighter agent! However, your vision is not very good, and I don't think this skinny Oriental has any potential to tap. A voice came from not far away.
Hearing the sound, a 1.90-year-old black tall man with a few small minions was walking towards Chen Chumo and them.
"That guy's name is Taylor, and I've played him twice, and we've won and lost. He lost to me on points at the beginning of last year, and he has always been haunted by that defeat, thinking that I had bribed the referee with the organizers to let him lose, so he has been looking for an opportunity to have another peak showdown with me! Thomas whispered more Chen Chumo.
Taylor is also a black man, very athletic, looks a little younger than Thomas, and his unruly anger is not inferior to Thomas, and his strength should not be under Thomas.
"Taylor is three years younger than me, has better physical strength and flexibility than me, and if I had to fight again, honestly, even if I have more experience than him, I wouldn't be confident that I can beat him again." Thomas continued.
"If you don't want to fight, don't fight, anyway, you don't lack money now, there's no need to risk your life and fight him again." Chen Chumo said.
"It's not that easy in boxing. If you don't accept other people's challenges, then you are admitting it, and not only will the appearance fee not go up, but you will also be scolded by many fans. Although we are underground fighters, we also have dignity, and we cannot be questioned and tarnished by others in the face of fame and fortune. Now that Taylor and I are regarded as two of the best in boxing in the United States, we will fight each other until one of us concedes or is killed! Thomas said with a smile, as if he had already seen everything in the ring.
"Since there is a battle sooner or later, why does he provoke you but don't meet it, you are of equal strength, you don't need to be afraid of him at all!" Chen Chumo said.
"Appearance fee, appearance fee, do you understand? I'm waiting for the organizers to give me an increase in my appearance fee, and now they are only giving me $6 million, which is really sorry for my current position in the boxing world. In my heart, since it's a peak showdown, why should I start with $10 million! Thomas said. Don't look at Thomas's five big and three rough, his mind is not bad!
Damn, $10 million! A game has 12 rounds, a game is 3 minutes, and it is only 36 minutes to play 12 rounds, so you can earn 280,000 US dollars in 1 minute! Uh, my goodness, that's so much better than playing slots.
The $10 million appearance fee is nothing, and four years later, in 2015, the current ring will host the Pacquiao vs. Mayweather Champion of the Century. Asian boxing champion Pacquiao's appearance fee reached 100 million US dollars, earning an average of 2.8 million US dollars a minute, and the super money printing machine could not print so fast. And the opponent world boxing champion Mayweather has twice as much appearance fee as him, up to $180 million! Such a way of making money is unimaginable to ordinary people, and it has to make people sigh that American business has made people miserable.
"What did Thomas mutter? Explain the aftermath so early? No, I haven't submitted my application to the contest with you yet! Taylor came over to Thomas and laughed.
"You're thinking too much, Taylor. I'm inviting this friend to come and watch me play with you at that time, so that he can see the appearance of a tall 1.9 man kneeling down and calling his mother, hehehe. Thomas pumped his lips and didn't show weakness at all.
"I think you better don't do it, who doesn't know the ugly thing you were knocked out by the Huaxia kid in Huaxia at the end of last year. You can't even figure out a Chinese kid, and you still want to see me laugh, Thomas, you seem to have your brain broken. It's not difficult for me to hold a press conference for you, there are few people here today, save you enough face, as long as you call me a father now, and admit that your strength is under me from now on, I will no longer make an appointment with you, what do you think? Taylor scoffed.
"Hey, Thomas, this works. In this way, not only will you save enough face for the fans, but you can also continue to cheat the appearance fee in the boxing world. The little minion on the side sneered.
"Wait, one day I'll accept your invitation when I'm unhappy, and I hope I don't beat me out of when the time comes. My friend and I are here to see boxing today, so please get out of the way. Thomas said.
"Yo, when did Thomas change his taste? The brain was broken, and it won't even break the balls below, but today I didn't bring a beautiful woman, but a little white face with fine skin and tender meat. Taylor scoffed again. His purpose is simple, that is, to try his best to arouse Thomas's disgust with himself and agree to the match between the two as soon as possible.
"No, my taste has always been the same, and I always want to press you under me. So, Taylor, are you satisfied? But for now, please go away and don't get in the way of me and my friends watching the game. Thomas said.
