Text Volume 3 The Strange Path_Chapter 888 Qingzhu

Norbert's meaning, Zhou Qing's side also quickly got the news.

After a brief discussion with the agent, the two parties arranged the meeting place in a Chinese restaurant called Liu Ji in Chinatown.

Chinatown, as the name suggests, was once the most crowded place for Chinese people to gather in other places, second only to San Francisco.

Nowadays, not only Chinese people, but also many immigrants from Asia live in the area, forming a unique culture.

The car couldn't drive near the central square, so Zhou Qing and Jiang Anqi walked there.

Jiang Anqi was familiar with everything here, and kept introducing Zhou Qing along the way.

Zhou Qing seemed to have returned to the coast fifteen or sixteen years ago in a trance.

The first time I was in Chinatown, I felt a much more intuitive historical atmosphere than in China, probably because I was in a foreign land.

In about ten minutes, the two arrived at the door of a restaurant that looked like a Hong Kong restaurant in a movie.

It is different from the Westernized, modern restaurants in Marina and Kyoto. The tables and chairs in this restaurant are very plain, the color is antique, and the whole environment is full of an indescribable sense of comfort.

Lots of people in the restaurant.

Most of them are Asian, and few are white or black.

At a table in the far corner, two people sat across from each other.

A short, stocky, curly-haired, Filipino man. The other has a muscular build, deep eyes, a standard M Chinese face, and bare arms with dense tattoos, thick and powerful.

Zhou Qing had seen Norbert's photo in advance and recognized it at a glance.

He recognized people, and so did many of the diners in the restaurant.

Zhou Qing has not been a star in China in recent years, but it is undeniable that the reason why he is so well-known is precisely because of the two movies he cooperated with Chen Jianxiang.

In the second Golden Age, Zhou Qing won the highest award for representing film martial arts performance, the Jintong Award.

Although he didn't receive it, he is indeed one of the few martial arts actors in China who has won this award.

followed by a series of events, and the reputation has long covered the entire Chinese circle.

Jiang Anqi felt that all eyes were on Zhou Qing, and she was honored, and her smile was a little brighter.

Several people tentatively stepped forward and asked in Mandarin, or in stiff and awkward Mandarin. Several female guests, as if excited, stepped forward to ask for a group photo.

Zhou Qing was stunned.

He is also because he is in a foreign country and ignores his sensitive identity.

Coping, Norbert strode over and took the initiative to extend his hand.

Norbert is about 1.9 meters tall, slightly taller than Zhou Qing, but not too obvious. The palms are wide and calloused, and they are very powerful.

Zhou Qing kindly stopped more people who came forward to say hello, and sat down with Norbert, as for the non-stop candid photography behind him, he didn't bother to care.

His English is upper-middle among the Chinese, but he is too lame in front of pure Americans like Norbert. Fortunately, it is intermittent, and Jiang Anqi is not needed to translate.

This in itself is progress, he taught himself IELTS in China, and what is lacking is actual communication. So in the few days he came to the United States, his understanding of English changed every day.

Without directly talking about the friendly match, Norbert first mentioned Luqua as a person.

Zhou Qing simply talked about Lu Kui's special drug design Yang Mu and his hands and feet on the wrist guard during the game.

Norbert's brows immediately twisted: "He is a villain himself, and in the ring of the National Olympic Games, he has repeatedly attacked places prohibited by the competition order...... If I had been given another chance, I would have taught him a lesson. ”

When he first came into contact, Zhou Qing felt that Norbert was the kind of person with a very obvious personality, hearty, straightforward, and easy to make people feel good.

For about twenty minutes, the topic of conversation between several people was much more casual.

Norbert attached great importance to the game and considered: "Mr. Zhou, someone wants to pay five million dollars to sponsor this friendly match between the two of us, but the condition is that it must be in the public ring in Los Angeles, and it will be broadcast live......

Zhou Qing was noncommittal, the so-called public ring was nothing more than taking place in Norbert's boxing ring.

In this way, the benefits for Norbert are obvious, and it is also an excellent way to advertise his boxing ring.

Jiang Anqi said: "Mr. Norbert, what can we get......

Zhou Qing was indifferent, waiting for Norbert to respond.

Norbert was not embarrassed, smiled, and showed his white teeth: "Miss Jiang, the friendly match is also a charity boxing match, and the sponsorship fund of five million will be donated to the charity of the United Nations in the name of me and Mr. Zhou." ”

Zhou Qing stopped Jiang Anqi and continued, nodding with a smile: "It's okay, I accept Mr. Norbert's arrangement." ”

He came here to make friends, as for whether Norbert will use this boxing match to gain benefits, there is no need to think, this is inevitable.

However, this is also the result of Zhou Qingyao. In the case of Norbert's profit, he will owe him a favor, and after the game, he asks for something simple, presumably Norbert will not refuse.

Next, we talked about some rules and details of the game.

It is to fight according to the rules of mixed martial arts, gloves, protective gear, and referees. Best-of-three.

Eating and chatting, there was a sudden commotion in the direction of the door.

It was five or six young men with strange hairstyles who walked in, and the first woman was about twenty-six or seventeen years old, with short hair, a neutral appearance, a vest on her upper body, and a pair of torn denim pants.

The figure is tall and straight, and the bust is wrapped in a vest, which is tight and moving.

At first glance, it is easy to associate the word handsome.

is indeed handsome, whether it is from a male or female point of view, she is actually very good-looking. And that special temperament makes her have characteristics and recognition both in men's and women's clothing.

These are not the most eye-catching, the most striking thing is that each of them has a specially shaped tattoo on their right arm, one by one, very much like a bamboo, and vaguely snake-shaped.

It looks like a venomous snake with a bamboo body.

Jiang Anqi said in a low voice: "The ...... of the Green Bamboo Gang in Chinatown"

Zhou Qing raised his eyebrows, he was no stranger to the Qingzhu Gang, a big gang that often existed on TV.

I once thought that this gang was a thing of the past, and I didn't expect to meet it in Chinatown.

Gangsters should have been most prevalent at that node in the eighties and nineties, and in today's era, when someone mentions gangs in front of Zhou Qing, he feels particularly unreal.

After all, Qin Haishan's Green Tiger Gang has disintegrated under domestic pressure. It's amazing that a gang like the Qingzhu Gang, which crosses nationalities, can still exist.

Jiang Anqi explained in Chinese: "President Zhou, the Qingzhu Gang is the maintainer of order in Chinatown. The black methods of the early years are basically no longer used now. So on the table, the Qingzhu Gang is now a legitimate businessman, but no one knows what they will do behind the scenes...... It is also a means of survival. ”

Zhou Qing nodded, not wanting to pay too much attention to it, because it had nothing to do with him directly.

Just as he turned around and was about to continue talking to Norbert, he was lightly kicked in the leg by Jiang Anqi.

At the same time, he heard the stray footsteps behind him.

It was those people from the Qingzhu Gang who came to him inexplicably.
