Chapter 38: The Magical Iron Plate Bridge (Chinese New Year's Eve Second Update)

Wang Lei was annoyed, originally thought that Michael Nunn's coach was Angel Dundee, who had coached Ali and Leonard, and his playing style must be similar to Ali and Leonard, and he was a skilled fighter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info didn't expect this guy to be from the Holyfield genre, and his style of play is as cunning and shameless as Holyfield.

Even more odious is the referee.

I don't know if there is a bias against Wang Lei's Chinese identity, the referee turned a blind eye to Michael Nunn's repeated hugging and putting Wang Lei on his head, and even did not award Michael Nunn a foul when Michael Nunn hit Wang Lei's eyebrow with an obvious headbutt.

The referee was indifferent, but many viewers in the audience couldn't stand it anymore and booed.

Michael Nunn's cheekiness is obviously the same as that of Holyfield, ignoring the boos from the audience, still running around, and using the tactics of hugging and overhead as soon as Wang Lei catches up, and occasionally adding headbutts. There was even a time when the punch was too low, if Wang Lei hadn't reacted quickly, he would have hit the crotch with a punch.

It was the first time Wang Lei had encountered a sinister and cunning opponent like Michael Nunn, and he was over in a single round without paying attention.

Seeing Michael Nunn return to the blue position with his head held high as if he had won, Wang Lei was a little angry.

After returning to his red position, while Ou Yangming was taking off Wang Lei's tooth tray and rinsing his mouth, Sadler reminded: "Wang, you have to calm down. That guy is no match for you at all, so he wants to provoke you with despicable tactics and make you lose your mind, and you must not let him succeed! ”

Wang Lei nodded: "Don't worry, Sadler, I won't lose my mind!" ”

Sadler said: "Very good, his style of play is not uncrackable, you have to use distance control tactics, don't always think about hitting him hard in close quarters, use jabs to control his distance, don't let him hug you at close range." Your jab is so strong that you can still knock him out, you know? ”

"I see!"

"Understand, then go on and show that guy the power of your heavy jab!"

……

The second round begins.

was reminded by Sadler that Wang Lei had regained his composure, but on the surface he was murderous and enraged.

Michael Nunn was fooled, making a defiant and mocking expression at Wang Lei, and then suddenly punched.

"Bang"!

Wang Lei seized the opportunity and returned with a jab that landed a solid blow to Michael Nunn's face.

Michael Nunn was beaten to a stumbling ground and nearly fell to the ground.

Seeing Wang Lei's second punch coming again, Michael Nunn was shocked, simply fell to the ground, and then pretended to inadvertently hit Wang Lei's knee with his shoulder, and at the same time stretched out his fist gloves to hug Wang Lei's ankle.

This is already an obvious technical action of wrestling and stumbling, and if ordinary people are made by him like this, there is a chance that they will lose their balance and fall, but Wang Lei's standing kung fu in the past year and a half is not practiced in vain, and his knees are just slightly bent, and he stands firmly.

Michael Nunn failed to trip Wang Lei, and seeing that Wang Lei's fist was about to smash from top to bottom, he simply rolled on the spot, not only avoiding Wang Lei's punch, but also distanced himself from Wang Lei.

It's just that his shameless foul behavior once again caused the audience to boo, and the referee couldn't turn a blind eye anymore. He stepped forward to warn Michael Nunn and deducted another point before the game resumed.

Michael Nunn was probably embarrassed by the embarrassment just now, and after the game started again, he actually took the initiative to attack Wang Lei uncharacteristically.

Wang Lei's response was also a bit abnormal, he actually didn't attack.

Not only did he not attack, but he also lowered his arms and relied on the constant shaking of his upper body to dodge Michael Nunn's attacks.

The reason why Wang Lei did this was because he was afraid that he would scare Michael Nunn away if he attacked, and the battle would turn into a running and chasing battle again, so he decided not to attack and fish slowly.

He's extremely nimble, with excellent flexibility at the waist, and with his concentration and quick reflexes, none of Michael Nunn's barrage jab strikes hit him.

After five consecutive misses, Wang Lei made a hippie smiley gesture and leaned his face closer to Michael Nunn to taunt him.

Seeing this, Michael Nunn couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and his punches became bigger.

It's just that it's still missing, missing, missing!

After another three missed punches, Michael Nunn involuntarily stepped forward, almost standing in front of Wang Lei, and threw a powerful swing punch.

Wang Lei made a move that made the audience feel unbelievable.

His feet did not move, but his body leaned back sharply, his upper body parallel to the ground, and his knees bent back to ninety degrees. Michael Nunn's powerful hook fell short.

This kind of "iron bridge" action, which can only be seen in Xiangjiang's kung fu movies a few years earlier, naturally caused the audience to exclaim, and Michael Nunn was also stunned.

Before Michael Nunn came back to his senses, Wang Lei's body bounced up like a spring.

At the same time, his left hook grazed the ground, flying from the bottom to the top towards Michael Nunn's chin.

"Bang" hits the target.

Michael Nunn was smashed and his head was thrown up, and his mind froze instantly.

Wang Lei's second hook is here again.

It was a right flat hook that made a perfect arc and slammed into the left cheek of Michael Nunn.

Michael Nunn was beaten and his feet flew off the ground.

Although he only flew half a meter away, he fell so hard that the ring seemed to tremble.

The referee felt bad and simply stepped forward to block Wang Lei and prevent him from continuing to attack Michael Nunn.

After driving Wang Lei outside the halfline, the referee ran to look at Michael Nunn who was lying on the ground motionless, but found that Michael Nunn's eyes were rolling and he was unconscious, so he quickly gave up counting the seconds, announced the end of the game, and asked the doctor to come to the stage to save people.

By this point, the second round had just passed a minute and a half.

……

Wang's second professional bout ended with a stun of his opponent Michael Nunn in less than two rounds.

Afterwards, what the audience talked about the most was not Michael Nunn's shameless performance and the referee's inaction, but the "iron bridge" that Wang Lei used before the result Michael Nunn.

The "Iron Plate Bridge", where the knees are bent at 90 degrees and the upper body is almost parallel to the ground, was screenshotted by media reporters from the video of the scene, and the pictures of Wang Lei's boxing and cunquan kung fu performed before the game were published in newspapers or TV news.

So overnight, all the boxing fans in the United States knew about Wang Lei and knew that he really knew "kung fu".

Wang Lei's popularity suddenly exploded a lot again, and he was almost on par with the new heavyweight boxing champion Tyson.

Bob Arum was so happy that he not only doubled the appearance fee for Wang Lei's third professional boxing match, but also reselected a higher-ranked opponent for Wang Lei's fourth fight, and directly increased Wang Lei's appearance fee for the fourth fight to $50,000.

In Wang Lei's fifth match, Arum tried to schedule April 6 next year for Wang Lei to prepare for the comeback battle between Shuge Ray Leonard and Marvin Hagler.

Arum intends to use the appeal of Leonard's fight with Hagler to get more fans to know Wang Lei and take Wang Lei's popularity to the next level.

It's just that what Arum didn't expect was that Wang Lei only worked in Los Angeles for two or three days, and his popularity soared, not just one floor, but more than a dozen floors, making almost everyone in the United States know about it.

The effect was not the boxing match between Wang Lei and Michael Nunn, nor the big words Wang Lei said in an interview before the match, but a horror movie that was officially released after Wang Lei's match.

The horror film "Midnight Bell," written by Wang Lei, starring Zhou Yuqiang, and invested and produced by Columbia Pictures' crown prince Chand Cohen, premiered at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood at 9 p.m. that night.

With Chand Cohen's father, Jack Cohen, one of the owners of Columbia Pictures, appearing, this horror movie, which is basically starless and directed by obscurity, has more than a thousand people to cheer.

Most of them had to come for the sake of Jack Cohen's face.

No one is optimistic about this horror movie, which is said to be invested by the prince of Columbia Pictures to please the heroine of the film, and most people even see the film as a comedy.

As a result, before the movie was over, more than 90% of the audience was scared half to death, screaming and screaming, and even three ultra-timid and high blood pressure viewers were so frightened that they fell into a coma on the spot and were sent to the hospital.

Among the three stunned viewers was the film's producer and investor, Chand Cohen.

As a result, Wang Lei, as a screenwriter, became popular.

Who made this "Midnight Bell" have no stars, and the director is unknown, the only one who can hype is Wang Lei, who won the Best Screenplay Award at the Sundance Film Festival with a "The Night the Comet Comed" a year ago.

And at the beginning of the movie, the name of the screenwriter "Boxing King Lei" was also made into big subtitles, so that all the audience could see it clearly, while the director's name was too small to see.

Therefore, after the end of the movie, in addition to the heroine Zhou Yuqiang and the female ghost who crawled out of the TV, the most impressive person is the screenwriter "Boxing King Lei".

The media reporters who watched "Midnight Bell" at the Chinese Theater that night all reported in the press the next day: This is the most terrifying and scary movie they have ever seen, and there is no one!
