Chapter 402: I want to add a project

A few days later, the busy Xia Jiuli finally figured out his head and arranged the first match of the World Fighting Championship.

The players on both sides of the competition are still quite well-known, one is Li Gang, who has played the final with Yi Dun before, and the other is the Olympic champion Nunez.

A sanda fighter and a wrestler were placed in the same match, and it was the most talked-about heavyweight event.

When he knew that Yi Yang Company was about to hold the World Fighting Championship, Li Gang was already thinking about it, and he didn't go for the 10 million US dollars, because he knew that with Yi Dun here, no one could take the 10 million US dollars.

His real goal is to earn appearance fees and match bonuses, according to the reward rules announced by Xia Jiuli before, as long as he can play a game, he can get at least two or three hundred thousand yuan, this is still a case of losing the game, if he can win, then the bonus will definitely be more.

After signing up, Li Gang was delighted to find that he had directly become the opener of the World Fighting Championship.

This made him grateful to Yi Dun, such an opportunity is not something anyone can get, you must know that among the players who signed up, Li Gang is actually not outstanding, and there are more people than him who are qualified to play this opening match.

In this opening game, Yi Yang Company gave Li Gang an appearance fee of 200,000 yuan, which is quite generous, but compared to his opponent Nunez, it must be inferior.

Cuban player Nunez, as an Olympic gold medalist, does not know how much higher than Li Gang's rank and forced qualification, and the appearance fee is 500,000 yuan.

500,000 yuan doesn't seem like much, but it's actually good for Nunez, the commercial value of wrestlers is not particularly high, and Nunez is quite satisfied with such an income.

Moreover, if you win the match, there is an additional 500,000 yuan in prize money, which if you can get it, you will directly earn more than 100,000 US dollars in one match, and most martial artists will not get such an income.

In the end, the match ended smoothly in the eyes of the audience, Li Gang failed to win the game, but he was not vulnerable in front of the Olympic gold medalist, and the fight on the court went back and forth.

The successful conclusion of the opening match can be regarded as a good start for the World Fighting Championship, and then Xia Jiuli only needs to follow this rhythm step by step, create more topics and gimmicks, and sooner or later the World Fighting Championship will become more and more popular.

Creating buzz and gimmicks is extremely important for commercial events.

For example, the two sides sprayed each other before the game, which is quite a good gimmick that can attract the attention of the audience, and Xia Jiuli can be said to be a human-level existence in this regard.

After seeing the success of this competition, Yi Dun is not very concerned about it, and the only thing he needs to do now is wait for the annual champion to challenge him.

He now admires more and more for his wise decision to make a profit by playing only one game a year.

Fast forward to August, and it won't be long before Eden will compete in this year's World Athletics Championships.

At the World Athletics Championships, Eden is ready to register for a lot of events in preparation for next year's London Olympics.

"Yi Dun, you really have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, I was thinking about having someone contact you yesterday, but you came to the door by yourself today." Director Xu of the track and field center couldn't help but smile when he saw Yi Dun in front of him.

"Director Xu, look at what you said, this track and field training center is also half of my home, and now that the things at hand are over, I must come back to take a look." Yi Dun said cheekily.

Director Xu smiled wryly, he hadn't seen Yi Dun for half a year, and he was embarrassed to say that this was half of his home.

"Yi Dun, I have seen that you have been doing a lot of things in the martial arts circle recently, and I am still worried that you will not be willing to come to track and field after you taste the sweetness."

"Now it seems that you still have a conscience and have not given up on us."

Director Xu does have such worries, knowing that the ability to attract gold in martial arts is actually much higher than that of track and field, he is very worried that Yi Dun will make a lot of money in the martial arts circle, and then give up track and field.

Athletics is too time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the top athletes may not earn as much as a fighting competition after a busy year.

However, looking at Yi Dun's situation, Director Xu breathed a sigh of relief, Yi Dun didn't seem to have the idea of giving up track and field, otherwise, he wouldn't have come to him at this point in time.

"Director Xu, you don't know me too much when you say this, to be honest, I can give up any project, but I can't give up track and field, how many gold medals is this?"

"If my national team fails to win the first place in the medal table because I gave up track and field, or even the second place, then I will really become a sinner, and I will not have the face to see people in the future." Yi Dun laughed.

This is what he said in his heart, he can give up anything, but the gold medals in track and field cannot be given up.

I am now engaged in track and field, not only for my own future, but also for the country, once I lose more than ten track and field gold medals, it is difficult to imagine what will happen next.

With these more than ten gold medals, the Chinese national team can compete with the United States in the gold medal table, and if there are more than ten gold medals, it will be difficult to compete with the American team.

Even losing to Russia, a sports powerhouse, in the gold medal table, is not out of the question.

If this really happens, then Yi Dunke will really become a sinner, he doesn't want this to happen, so no matter what, this track and field can't be left behind.

Director Xu listened to Yi Dun's words and nodded with great satisfaction, Yi Dun had such an awareness, he was still very happy.

"Okay, Yi Dun, just saying this to you, it means that we didn't misread you at the beginning."

"Let's talk about it, what is your purpose in coming to Beijing this time? It can't be just for the World Championships, right?"

Yi Dun scratched his head and laughed, "There is indeed something, or I won't bother Director Xu." ”

"That's right, I'm going to sign up for more events at this World Championships."

These words directly startled Director Xu, sign up for more projects? Eden doesn't feel like he has enough projects?

Today, Eden has an outrageous number of athletics events in his hands.

Javelin, discus, shot put, hammer throw, decathlon, 800 meters, 1,500 meters, 3,000 meters steeplechase, 5,000 meters, 10,000 meters, marathon, this is already eleven events, Yi Dun still wants to continue to add?!

Athletics can be broadly divided into four categories, namely walking, running, jumping and throwing.

Now there is no doubt that Yi Dun has no room for further improvement in throwing, and the four major throwing events are all Yi Dun's world, or the kind of world that no one can shake.

And running, according to the distance can be divided into three kinds, that is, short distance, middle distance and long distance, now Yi Dun has mastered the middle distance and long distance, which is also Yi Dun can not be shaken.

Director Xu knew very well that Yi Dun could not participate in the sprint event, so if Yi Dun added the event, it would be added to the two major events of walking and jumping.

If you jump, it is also unlikely, Director Xu still knows Yi Dun's jumping ability very well, unless Yi Dun was taken away by aliens for transformation during this time, Director Xu does not think that Yi Dun can achieve any good results in the jumping event.

The only thing left is to take this big item.

Director Xu reluctantly asked, "Yi Dun, if I'm not mistaken, do you want to add race walking?" ”

Yi Dun's face was happy, "Those who know me, Director Xu, I haven't even opened my mouth yet, Director Xu already knows." ”

"At the last World Championships, I told everyone that I would sign up for race walking at this World Championships, but Director Xu, don't worry, I will definitely not engage in privileges, and I will definitely participate in the World Championships trials when the time comes, and I will qualify for the race walking event with my own strength." Yi Dun patted his chest and said.

Race walking is not quite the same as other athletics events in which Eden participates.

Yi Dun's current track and field events are all events in which Chinese male athletes have not achieved much, and many of them are not even qualified, so as long as Yi Dun wants to participate, as long as the results meet the standards, there is no question of qualifying for the trials, after all, he is the only one who is qualified for the competition, and there is nothing else to select.

But the current race walking event is different, the strength of domestic men's race walkers is still quite strong, and they won two medals in the last World Championships.

In this case, if Yi Dun wants to participate, then a player who was originally qualified to participate will inevitably be disqualified, so Yi Dun said what he just said, to participate in the selection competition, everything is based on strength.

"Of course, you have to participate in the tryouts, but have you decided which project to sign up for? There are two events in the men's race walk, one is 20 km and the other is 50 km. ”

"I suggest that you don't participate in the 50km race, which is too much physical consumption and can easily affect your performance in other races." Director Xu suggested.

Yi Dun shook his head, "Director Xu, there's no need, I'm quite confident in my physical fitness." ”

"I'm going to sign up for both of these events and try to come back with two more gold medals this time."

Director Xu was a little speechless, if there was no conflict in the schedule, Yi Dun would be amazing at the World Championships, a total of thirteen events were registered, and he might be able to win thirteen gold medals in the end!

Thirteen gold medals in the World Championships, like women's marathon runner Bai Xue, can win a gold medal in the World Championships, even if it is a glorious ancestor, Yi Dun can actually win thirteen gold medals!

Director Xu didn't know if Yi Dun could win the championship in the two race walking events, but in his opinion, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Yi Dun is completely a strong line, since he wants to participate, the chance of winning the championship must be more than ninety percent.
