Chapter 333: My Cup of Wine, You Have to Drink It If You Don't Want It!

Arsenal's final game in January will be an FA Cup fourth-round away game against Yorkshire, and a win would be another winning month, even if they actually played two games against Hereford United.

But Chinese are paying more attention to the news of boxing these days, and Qin Jian's first professional fight in the IBF is about to start in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

Qin Jian has always been the most low-key of Chinese sports superstars, he has not been involved in commercial activities as frequently as Wu Jie, Lin Yaodong, and Chen Haonan, and even in the entertainment industry, he is more low-key than the low-key Shen Lang in this regard.

In addition to concentrating on boxing itself, Qin Jian only published a full-length Xianxia called "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" after the Olympics, which has recently caused a lot of repercussions in the Chinese-speaking circle and has sold very well.

But if it weren't for his status as an Olympic champion, although this book is cleverly conceived and the theme is novel, it is difficult to cause a huge response now because the writing is not brilliant.

Of course, in terms of writing, for Qin Jian, who is actually controlled by AI, he is actually high if he wants to be high, and low if he wants to be low, and the reason why he is not brilliant is mainly to match his age.

At this time, Qin Jian had just turned 19 years old, his height stopped at 190cm, his arm span was 200cm, and his weight increased to 185 pounds after the Olympics, which was just in the range of "sub-heavyweight".

Qin Jian's current age is difficult to quickly increase his weight to the level of the heavyweight, and the weight of the sub-heavyweight class in the eighties was limited to 190 pounds, not 200 pounds later, that is, between 175 pounds and 190 pounds belong to the range of "sub-heavyweight", which is converted into kilograms of 79 kg to 86 kg.

This weight is very suitable for Qin Jian at this stage, and he does not plan to quickly rise to the heavyweight class, but to unify the sub-heavyweight class first.

Qin Jian's goal is to win the IBF welterweight championship belt within this year, and next year he will strive to get the WBA and WBC welterweight championship belts and become a truly "undisputed" welterweight champion before choosing to gain weight and enter the heavyweight division.

After last year's Olympic Games, Qin Jian's fame in the world boxing world is not small, especially his potential has reached the level of world attention.

This naturally attracted the close attention of the three major boxing organizations, and they received invitations from the three major boxing organizations almost at the same time.

And those promoters, brokers, and brokerage companies who are well-known in the field of professional boxing naturally also heard the news, hoping to sign this Chinese genius with unlimited money.

Of course, Qin Jian would not let his fat water outflow, and he chose a boxing agent hired by MSM in the North American branch.

This man is only a little well-known in the professional boxing field in North America, and MSM's development in North America is only in its infancy.

But it is precisely in this way that Qin Jian's fame is used to make the North American branch bigger, and even if MSM is just starting out in North America, it is all elite soldiers who have been transferred from the headquarters, and they can grow rapidly in North America with only time and enough outstanding sports stars.

MSM has a big advantage in this regard, and they have been planning since last year, not only signing Tyson and Lewis in the boxing world. He also formed a league of failures in the basketball world, that is, the future team of Jordan, Olajuwon, Ewing, Barkley, Mullin, and Stockton.

Also included are future All-Star Bo Jackson, a future All-Star in both Major League Baseball and Major League Rugby, and future Hockey legend Gretzky.

These people are enough to make MSM a force to be reckoned with in the North American sports world in the near future, and the current signature stars promoted by the company are naturally Qin Jian, Tyson, Jordan, Bo Jackson, and Gretzky.

Today is Qin Jian's first appearance in the professional world, and this is a welterweight match affiliated with the IBF, or International Boxing Federation.

Qin Jian chose the three major professional boxing organizations for a long time, and finally decided to accept the invitation of the IBF.

The three major boxing organizations now, the oldest is the WBA, the Chinese name is the "World Boxing Association", but in fact this is just a pure North American boxing organization with a "world" title, or the United States boxing organization.

Until now, the WBA has been the world's largest, most financially charged, and most talented professional boxing group, but it is no longer dominated by Americans.

The grievances and hatreds of these three boxing organizations are actually very similar to the plot of Xiaoao Jianghu, and he seriously suspects that the inspiration for the merger of the Wuyue Sword Sect came from this.

In 1963, in order to further expand its global influence, the WBA finally established the WBC, also known as the "World Boxing Council", through a series of negotiations with the European Boxing Federation, the British Boxing Management Committee, Latin American Boxing, and the Oriental Boxing Federation.

This drama should be most familiar to Chinese, that is, they want to take the opportunity to swallow up boxing organizations all over the world, because the world's professional boxing is mainly the United States.

The financial capacity that the WBA can mobilize and the number of fighters it has are not comparable to other countries, so its position within the WBC is beyond everyone else, which is essentially no different from the merger of the Wuyue Sword Faction, which will actually make the Songshan faction dominant.

In fact, it is true that when the WBC was established, it actually gave the states of the United States the same voting rights as other countries, which is of course a disguised annexation.

The WBA quickly turned the WBC into a hall of words, much to the displeasure of the other member countries.

But Americans may not know that there is a saying that "where there is oppression, there is resistance"!

The WBC was dominated by the WBA for a long time, and since the WBA itself called itself the "World Boxing Association", a large number of boxing associations from various countries that joined the WBC also joined the WBA.

Americans did not know what this meant, and by 1974, the new Latin American, European, and Asian powers had secretly joined forces to take advantage of the contradictions between the American states and elected presidents other than the Americans and Canadians.

This is a bit of a dove occupying the magpie's nest, after the Americans and Canada were squeezed out of the center of power, they have never been able to get involved in the post of president of the WBA, which is really a classic case of losing the wife and losing the nest.

Since then, the WBC has become the United Nations in the field of boxing, and the WBA, a boxing organization originally dominated by American forces, has actually become a small United Nations.

But the embarrassment is that the strongest Americans have been squeezed out of the center of power, and of course they are not willing to accept their own organization, but let outsiders empty it.

However, they created the rules themselves, and finally in 1983, after Robert Lee failed to run for the WBA presidency on behalf of the United States, he angrily withdrew from the group with his original American foundation and established the so-called IBF with the purest North American blood.

This picture is very familiar to Wu Jie's eyes, that is, the Americans withdrew too late, and the United Nations in the two major and small boxing fields of WBC and WBA have already gained a firm foothold in the United States.

After the separation of the IBF founded by the Americans, it must also pay attention to the foreign players who come to the United States to participate in the competition, and Qin Jian is one of the most favored new stars of the IBF.

Generally speaking, a rookie like him who has just obtained a professional boxing license, without the help of an excellent promoter or agency, it is not easy to even get the opportunity to fight.

But Qin Jian has an Olympic gold medal as a signboard, and he is an unprecedented Chinese, the key is that he is a new star that IBF has spent a lot of money to pull, so not only does the competition not need to worry, IBF itself is building and promoting Qin Jian's signboard that may become golden.

IBF did pay a lot of price to recruit Qin Jian, first of all, his debut appearance fee was about the same as that of some well-known fighters, and the live broadcast on the day of the game was also a prime-time national live broadcast in the United States, and half a month before the game, he began to hype up this big battle featuring the Chinese Olympic champion.

In terms of opponents, the IBF has also been carefully selected, and finally arranged for German fighter Marvin Wagner, who is also a newcomer but has already won four consecutive victories in the IBF.

The match was held at the "Taj Mahal" casino in Atlantic City, and Qin Jian's match was scheduled for 8:30 p.m., which was considered the prime time of all the games of the day, which shows that the IBF really values him.

American fans and betting dogs are also interested in the first Chinese fighter to enter the American professional boxing scene, and although most people are not coming to see him today, the nearly 10,000 spectators in front of the Qin Jian and Malvern bout are also looking forward to the fight, and the sales of spinach should not be underestimated.

However, when the commentators of American TV introduced the two international players from outside North America, especially Qin Jian, who debuted as an Olympic champion, there was still some condescending arrogance in his words.

In China, CCTV Sports Channel sent a special film crew to shoot and report on the spot, and also bought the live broadcast rights of IBF at a low price.

This is also one of the reasons why Qin Jian chose IBF, the three major event organizations offered him a high price, but the newly independent IBF is eager to expand its global influence, so it gives the most preferential treatment in broadcasting, especially the Chinese side gives a half-sell and half-free price, hoping to quickly open up this new market.

This choice will certainly pay off in the future, even if the number of domestic TV in China is still only about 3 million, but if you count the listeners who listen to the radio, the attention is not ordinarily high.

But whether it is the Americans who are curious about Qin Jian, or the Chinese who are extremely looking forward to Qin Jian, after the start of the first round, everyone quickly became confused!

"What, it's over when it just starts?"

"What kind of game is this, and it's over in two sentences?"

"That's a KO? Isn't it twelve rounds? ”

This will be the most painful for the Chinese audience, because the Chinese commentators have not had time to introduce the contestants from both sides, and there is only one person standing on the stage at the other end.

The reaction of the Americans was similar, and the audience was stunned, poking at it in amazement like half a piece of wood.

American TV was also introducing the players on both sides, and at this moment the commentators opened their mouths and couldn't speak for a long time, and after a while, they shook their heads and exclaimed: "God, isn't this true?" ”

Of course this is true, Qin Jian has already returned to the edge of the ring with a cold face, and is asking the assistants to take off their equipment.

This game is completely over, and the whole process took less than ten seconds, a real second kill!

The German, who was unashamed before the game and said that he would bury Qin Jian here in three rounds and end Qin Jian's pathetic short career, could end his career in just five games at this moment.

Marven would have collapsed in the ring like a corpse, let alone standing up again, and even barely opening his eyes was already dazed, which was already a characteristic of loss of consciousness.

At this time, the TV stations that broadcast the game hurriedly replayed the KO footage that many viewers in front of the TV did not see clearly, and everyone saw how Malvin was beaten so badly!

I saw that as soon as the bell rang, after the game started, Qin Jian didn't even test it, just like a fierce tiger out of the gate, he attacked it with a very aggressive fighting posture.

Such a reckless style of play, Qin Jian has used it in the Olympic Games.

But no one thought that he would dare to attack in such a way that he didn't treat his opponent as a human being in the professional arena.

Marven's height is only 183cm, and his arm span is only 182cm, but the two have similar weights, as well as the obvious difference in height and arm span, even pseudo-boxing fans know that Qin Jian should use a control style of play, and Malven must have an advantage in close combat.

Therefore, Marven was surprised, but he was still happy to start a close-range fight with Qin Jian.

And this is the reason why he was killed in seconds, Qin Jian's footsteps and dodging ability are obviously stronger than Marven by more than one grade.

He dodged two hooks in quick succession as he approached, and then knocked out Malvern with a quick combination of punches.

However, judging from the slow-motion replay, Qin Jian actually hit Marven with two punches, because when his third punch was thrown, the latter had already fallen to one side, and at this time he had actually regained his strength.

But these two punches were enough to shock Malven on the spot, because judging from the slow-motion replay, Qin Jian's first punch hit Malven in the ribs.

Being knocked out in a boxing match is basically a heavy blow to the brain, but it is also possible to be knocked out if a heavy blow is given to the ribs, because Qin Jian hits the liver and spleen of the ribs, and a heavy blow here can cause a sudden disruption of the hemodynamic process, resulting in fainting.

Marven felt black when he received this punch, but after all, he was a professional boxer, and his ability to resist strikes still had a certain foundation, and he did not faint.

But Qin Jian's second punch came too quickly, and at this time, Malvin, who produced a short hard stun, was completely destroyed in his defensive posture, not only did his jaw rise too high in the severe pain, but his fists also lost their defensive position.

To put it bluntly, the head is lifted up, so that the two fists are too far down, and the fragile jaw and neck are exposed.

At this time, Qin Jian hit Malven on the left side of the neck with an oblique uppercut, which is known as one of the dead points in the Chinese martial arts, once it suffers a heavy blow, it will reflexively cause a temporary disorder of cerebral blood circulation, that is, the cerebral blood supply is insufficient, resulting in coma shock.

After Marven was hit by this punch, he was already unconscious before he could fall.

Seeing this, Qin Jian also withdrew the third punch he struck, and this punch he was originally about to attack his jaw with an uppercut.

If this punch is also hit, then Malvin will not only have his jaw shattered, but he will be GG Smecta on the spot.

But even so, Malvin had no protection when he lost his orientation and fell to the ground, which was equivalent to another hard blow to the brain, which was actually no less than being hit by a heavy punch.

Malvin, who collapsed to the ground at this moment, was pale and almost completely unconscious, and barely raised his eyelids after half a minute, but he still could not really regain consciousness until a minute later, unable to respond to the referee and medical staff.

This situation is not a simple concussion, so before the victory is announced, Malvern was carried on a shockproof warm stretcher to the ambulance parked at the door and immediately sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.

At this meeting, the front row was very peaceful, and the audience was just applauding lightly and trying their best to maintain an elegant posture.

But there were already scolding voices from the audience in the back row, and of course there were very undignified shouts.

Boxing matches in the U.S. are also interesting in terms of spectator atmosphere, and the people who sit in the front row to watch the fight are often celebrities, and everyone attends in formal attire, men's suits, women's evening wear, and a gentleman's and lady's style.

Most of these people are able to control their emotions, so when televised, these well-dressed styles create a calm, elegant atmosphere in the ring.

And it is not forbidden to shout, foul language, or vent your emotions without restraint, but it generally does not appear in the front row, otherwise it will attract the eyes of other audiences.

At this time, if you give the camera to the back, you will find that those viewers are not so sven in terms of dress, and many people's faces are demonic tyranny and madness, holding spinach and shouting, shouting, and swearing!

At this time, just look at who is cheering and who is cursing, and you can know who has won and who has lost!

At this time, there were obviously more spectators booing at the scene, some of them were insulting Qin Jian, but more people were cursing Malven who was carried away, because he was the culprit who caused them to lose money.

This is the biggest charm of boxing, in addition to watching the bodies of the fighters in the ring suffer great "enjoyment" and "satisfaction", the greater excitement is actually the spinach behind every boxing match.

The sports industry in the United States is unprecedentedly developed, but it is the spinach industry that is really driving the driver, and boxing is the one with the highest total amount of money in all sports betting items.

In this era, in a boxing title fight, the two fighters in the ring can already get up to tens of millions of dollars in appearance fees, but the betting amount behind the fight is often hundreds of millions of dollars.

Qin Jian's appearance fee today is not low, although it is only the first battle of his career, he can also get an appearance fee of 5,000 US dollars after winning.

This price sounds like a very low price, but as long as you think about Zou Shiming, who was originally on the plane thirty years later, and the appearance fee for a game is only 5,500 US dollars, you can know that Qin Jian's debut in the eighties is really ridiculously high.

At this time, in the Indian-style luxury venue, Qin Jian, who didn't seem to even sweat a few drops and didn't even hurt his heel hair, was being raised by the referee to announce the victory with his right hand raised amid applause, but his next actions made the audience very puzzled.

I saw that he poured out the cup of "Qin wine" before the game, and after pouring it on the edge of the ring in a memorial posture, the audience at the scene couldn't understand what it meant?

But the Chinese audience, the Japanese audience, and many viewers in the Han culture circle in front of the TV laughed, this is Qin Jian's exclusive celebration action!

However, what they didn't notice was that this glass of Xifeng wine was no longer the brand it used in the Olympics.

Qin Jian didn't really don't do business, he had actually bought two breweries in China, one was a beer brewery and the other was a liquor brewery.

But this is just the beginning, and he plans to set up wineries in Ningxia and Xinjiang, and in the future, build several wineries across the country.

Qin Jian had long planned to enter the liquor industry, but he didn't just plan to do the business of liquor, beer, and wine.

He also plans to sponsor domestic students to Japan and Scotland to learn about traditional whisky and new whisky brewing techniques.

This is the intention to include whisky and brandy in the future production range, as for whether it can be sold, it depends on whether the publicity can keep up.

But this happens to be the least worrying link, at least in China and Asia, as long as they take the lead in helping Qin Jian wave the flag and shout, plus he himself gives the opponent a warm wine sacrifice every game, then it will be difficult to think of a big sale.

The prospect of China's liquor industry is not small, as a country with a wine culture, as long as you refer to Moutai, which will become the pillar of Guizhou's economy in the future, you can know how profitable this industry will be after it grows bigger.

Qin Jian's appetite is even greater, he not only wants to make the liquor to the scale of the original plane Moutai, but also to make beer, wine, whiskey, and brandy the largest in the country, including both luxury products and high-volume products, and even buy the largest distillery in the United States like Japan's Suntory, and sell Chinese whiskey to the United States.

This time, facing the first professional match of his career, he took the first batch of Qin wine just brewed by his "Qin Dynasty Liquor Industry" and let it be sprinkled on American soil.

In the future, he will continue to pay tribute to every opponent with various products brewed in his own distillery, which is the most hardcore promotion in the world.
