Chapter 262: Hidden and Wise
The grand event of the domestic boxing world held in Dongyue City ended, which was aimed at celebrating Wang Hao's victory in the World Boxing Championship, bringing together boxing people from all over the country and establishing Wang Hao's status in the domestic boxing world.
Wang Hao has become a leader in the domestic boxing industry, and the domestic boxing community regards Wang Hao as a benchmark and example of Chinese boxing.
After finishing these trivial matters, Wang Hao rested at home for a short time, and then left for Beijing to train in preparation for the Friendship Games to be held for the 17 th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States.
The Atlanta Olympics in the United States will soon start after the China-US Friendship Games, so Wang Hao will be very busy for more than half a year, and will basically spend all his time on training.
But before that, Wang Hao still has a very important thing to do, that is, to go to Huang Yueying's house and meet Huang Yueying's father Huang Jianguo.
Wang Hao knew that Huang Jianguo, as a domestic sportswear tycoon, would have high requirements for his future son-in-law, so Wang Hao did not have high expectations for seeing Huang Jianguo this time, at least Huang Jianguo did not express clear opposition to the relationship between the two.
Huang Yueying told Wang Hao not to worry too much, Huang Yueying said that although Huang Jianguo's requirements are relatively high, because he is more resolute, Huang Jianguo should not be too embarrassed by Wang Hao.
Wang Hao naturally understands this very well, but Wang Hao still hopes to rely on his ability to gain Huang Jianguo's recognition, otherwise it will still be a big problem in the long run.
Huang Yueying said that Huang Jianguo likes high-grade liquor, especially recently he has fallen in love with vodka, and drinks it almost every day, which makes Wang Hao have a clear idea of what gift to bring to meet Huang Jianguo.
When Wang Hao participated in the World Junior Boxing Championships two years ago, he participated in a training camp in Kiev, Ukraine, and fought with the Ukrainian national second team.
At that time, the initiator of the competition was a fighter of the second Ukrainian national team and the son of a well-known wine merchant in the Soviet Union.
The most expensive Soviet Union Red Vodka, Snow Tree Vodka, and Crown Vodka are all luxury goods for ordinary families, among which Crown Vodka is exclusively supplied by Soviet leaders, and it is rare for ordinary people to see it, but for this wine merchant's son, it is not a big deal.
In order to attract the fighters of the Ukrainian national second team and the Chinese fighters to participate in the match, the son of the wine merchant at that time took out three cases of crown vodka as a reward, and these three cases of crown vodka are all vintages, two cases of 1980 and one case of 1972.
Taking out these rewards can be regarded as taking out the bottom of the box for the wine merchant's son, but the crown vodka of the vintage is definitely a rare luxury for ordinary people in the Soviet Union, and even for ordinary dignitaries.
And Wang Hao, who won the competition in the end, successfully won these three cases of vintage crown vodka.
Wang Hao was going to take a box of 1980 crown vodka to see Huang Jianguo.
On the outskirts of Beijing, a private villa that can be said to be a magnificent building, Wang Hao drove his own Audi 100 and drove Huang Yueying in, and today is the day when Wang Hao came to see Huang Jianguo.
Wang Hao didn't come early, he arrived at Huang Jianguo's villa when it was almost dinner time.
Huang Jianguo and Wang Hao's chats were basically held at the dinner table, although there were only three people, but the full-time chef of the Huang family still cooked more than a dozen dishes covering the five cuisines of Shandong, Yue, Guangdong, Sichuan, and Yang to entertain Wang Hao.
The dishes are sumptuous, but this is also a common meal for the Huang family.
Huang Jianguo has always admired Wang Hao himself, because Wang Hao is the champion of the World Youth Boxing Championship and the champion of the World Boxing Championship after all, so he is an outstanding talent.
But appreciating is appreciating, and being a son-in-law is another matter.
In fact, in Huang Jianguo's psychology, the most desired son-in-law candidate is definitely not an excellent boxer, but a rich son who is also a successful businessman, which is a suitable marriage for Huang Jianguo.
Therefore, Huang Jianguo is actually mainly dissatisfied with Wang Hao's family background and the boxer's "money".
However, with Uncle Li following Huang Yueying to Wang Hao's house, Huang Jianguo learned that the situation of Wang Hao's family was actually much better than he thought before, coupled with Huang Yueying's repeated advice to Huang Jianguo, Huang Jianguo was actually very polite to Wang Hao today, and did not embarrass Wang Hao, but just chatted about some issues he cared about like a family life.
Huang Jianguo was very surprised by the gift Wang Hao brought, that is, a box of crown vodka from 1980.
Huang Jianguo likes to drink vodka very much recently, although he knows that Crown Vodka is the best brand of vodka, but for this kind of expensive vodka that is only for the leaders of the former Soviet Union, Huang Jianguo has put a lot of effort into getting a few bottles.
There is only one vintage of the vintage, which is the 1985 Crown Vodka.
Therefore, Huang Jianguo was very surprised that Wang Hao brought a whole box, six bottles, and a 1980 crown fort plus.
Huang Jianguo's own assets are hundreds of millions, he is rich, he has a wide range of contacts, and he can't get the crown vodka of the year, Huang Jianguo definitely doesn't believe that Wang Hao has this ability.
Huang Jianguo thinks that Wang Hao knows that he likes vodka, so he votes for his favorite, but the wine is basically a fake wine, although Huang Jianguo knows that Wang Hao will definitely not deliberately bring fake wine to see him, but obviously because he doesn't know the goods, he bought fake wine, you must know that crown vodka is definitely a priceless existence in China.
Huang Jianguo chatted with Wang Hao casually.
"When I was a child, I actually lived a harder life than most of the children now, and my family was very poor, but I entered the factory at the age of eighteen, became an apprentice in half a year, and became the youngest master in the factory at the age of twenty, and I contracted the factory at the age of twenty-five, and turned losses into profits after two years, and sales exceeded 100 million yuan after five years."
Huang Jianguo proudly told the story of his career from a poor boy.
And he told Wang Hao to highlight how young and promising he is, especially in terms of his ability to make money, and it also implied a reminder to Wang Hao.
Wang Hao listened to Huang Jianguo's narration, smiled politely and nodded, but didn't say anything.
In Wang Hao's view, Huang Jianguo is indeed a rare and self-made successful person, which is indeed remarkable, but Wang Hao does not feel that he will be worse than Huang Jianguo.
Even in terms of the ability to make money, Huang Jianguo only went to the factory to work as a small worker at the age of eighteen, and Wang Hao now has a professional boxer contract with an annual salary of one million, at a similar age, Wang Hao's income is thousands of times more than Huang Jianguo's.
And for his future, Wang Hao doesn't think it will be worse than the current Huang Jianguo, if Wang Hao becomes the hegemon of the world's professional boxing middleweight according to his goal, he will have at least tens of millions of dollars in income for a fight.
This does not include advertising revenue from endorsements and the like.
However, for these, Wang Hao naturally will not say it.
"Dad! Brother Wang Hao now has a contract with a European professional boxing club with an annual salary of 200,000 US dollars! What Wang Hao didn't say, Huang Yueying helped to tell it.
Hearing this information, Huang Jianguo was also stunned, he always thought that as an athlete there is not much "money", although when he is active, if there are achievements, he will be glorious, but after retiring, he is generally a coach or physical education teacher, and the money he earns may not be enough to treat his own injuries.
However, hearing that boxers can sign professional contracts and earn an annual salary of $200,000, Huang Jianguo thought that he was still penniless at Wang Hao's age, and his views on Wang Hao or some prejudices also changed.
After having dinner at Huang Yueying's house and chatting for a while, Wang Hao also left, the whole process of meeting was quite pleasant, Huang Jianguo neither objected to Wang Hao and Huang Yueying's matter, nor did he agree.
After Wang Hao left, Huang Jianguo had nothing to do, and opened the wine brought by Wang Hao, he decided that Wang Hao had bought fake wine, and wanted to see if it was a second pot head.
He loves high-grade liquor, and Huang Jianguo's ability to taste wine is also very strong.
Pulling out a bottle from the six bottles of Crown vodka, Huang Jianguo poured a small cup and tasted it carefully.
"This wine turned out to be real!" The moment he tasted the wine, Huang Jianguo was also stunned, "This kid is actually hidden!" “
After meeting Huang Jianguo, the main things for Wang Hao have been busy recently, although the meeting with Huang Jianguo was not very pleasant, but Huang Jianguo at least did not object to Wang Hao and Huang Yueying's affairs, which was enough for Wang Hao.
Wang Hao immediately devoted all his energy to the preparations for the China-US Friendship Games and next year's Olympic Games.
Of course, the preparation for the Olympic Games is the key, Wang Hao is determined to win the gold medal in the Olympic Games, and with such a strong opponent as Hernandez participating, it is not easy for Wang Hao to win the championship.
For the 64-kilogram boxing match of the Sino-US Friendship Games, Wang Hao is also making preparations, but only slightly adjusted in the Olympic Games preparation plan, for Wang Hao, the Olympic Games are the highlight, and the Sino-US Friendship Games is just a small episode.
In the process of establishing diplomatic relations between China and the United States, table tennis has made a contribution, so since the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, the table tennis games have been held at the beginning of each year, and it has been carried out for more than ten years.
However, because table tennis is not a strong sport in the United States, the American team will lose every time, so the table tennis competition to celebrate the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States has become the Sino-US Friendship Games.
With the addition of this sport, Americans will naturally choose their own dominant sport, with basketball last year and boxing this year.
The United States is a boxing powerhouse, but also the holy land of professional boxing, for the sport of boxing, the United States can be said to be the emergence of outstanding talents in an endless stream.
In this competition, China and the United States negotiated five classes to compete, according to the weight classes and rules of amateur competition, covering the heavyweight class above 86 kg, the super welterweight class from 67 to 70 kg, the welterweight class from 64 to 67 kg, the ultra lightweight class from 60 to 64 kg, and the bantamweight class from 50 to 53 kg.
All five levels of boxers in China are from the Chinese national boxing team, and Wang Hao naturally represents the 64kg class, which is also the only competition level that the Chinese team is sure to win this time.
Bian Fang predicts that if Wang Hao had not represented in the 64kg class, the Chinese boxing team would likely have lost 0-5 at the China-US Friendship Games.
With Wang Hao participating, although the overall boxing match will still lose, but it will not lose so ugly, according to normal estimates, the Chinese table tennis team should also beat the American team a bald head, so if Wang Hao wins this key boxing match, from the two sports as a whole, the Chinese team will win.
While the Chinese national boxing team is busy selecting boxers and preparing for training, the US National Boxing Association is also busy selecting boxers for this China-US Friendship Games.
For the National Boxing Association, there are naturally a lot of boxers that can be used, but in order to be able to win the game without mistakes and win the game without fail, the National Boxing Association of the United States also tries to select the best amateur boxers in China to participate in the competition.
In a boxing training gym in Virginia, USA, many boxers are training hard, when a tall, middle-aged white man, who is an official of the National Boxing Association of the United States, is in charge of the boxer selection for the Sino-US Friendship Games.
One of the best amateur boxers in the 64kg class in the United States, Jill. Watters trains at the gym, which is what the U.S. official came to do.
Jill. Wagjes, a former All-American Golden Glove champion and bronze medalist in the 64kg class at the just-concluded World Boxing Championships, is undoubtedly the best fighter in the 64kg category at the China-US Friendship Games. Wagjes' shot, in the eyes of officials of the National Boxing Association, is undoubtedly foolproof, it is just a matter of how he wins the fight.
In Jill. Under the guidance of Coach Watters, the officers of the National Boxing Association of the United States quickly found a handsome boxer with short blond hair who was training hard. Vajes.
Met Jill. After briefly explaining the background of the fight and the purpose of the fight, the official of the National Boxing Association said: "Jill. Mr. Watters, we solemnly invite you to participate in the 64 kg competition of the China-US Friendship Games. ”
Jill. Varjes nodded, he already knew that there was a good reward for this competition, and at that time, Jill . Varjes didn't have any other games.
Jill. Without thinking much about it, Varjes said, "No problem, I'll participate!" ”
The official of the National Boxing Association nodded, and things went as smoothly as he imagined, and he said, "Thank you, Jill. Mr. Varjes accepts the invitation to the contest and we'll see you in January! ”
After saying that, the officer was ready to leave, but when he walked a few steps away, he was about to go into training again. A sharp figure of a Chinese boxer came to his mind, and he was invincible and invincible on the stage of the World Boxing Championships. Varjes was also knocked out by him and lost the match.
Jill. Varjes asked aloud: "What is the name of the Chinese boxer who competes in the 64kg class?" ”
The official of the National Boxing Association of the United States turned around, he had already received the list of Chinese participants, and indeed remembered the names of several fighters who participated, and he said: "The person who participated in the 64 kg competition should be called Wang Hao!" ”
Hearing the name, Jill. Varjes' body was shocked, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I won't participate in this competition, you can ask for another master!" ”
