Chapter 129: Another Victory

Atlantic City is a declining city, with fewer than a dozen casinos still in operation today, most of which use boxing, beauty pageants, UFC and other events as an important means of replenishing blood.

After the game, it was obvious that there were far fewer people at the Baileys.

In order to wait for the army to go to London together, Zhou Zhen couldn't leave for the time being, and went to the casino to play for a while at night.

In addition to slot machines, the favorite of gamblers here is Texas Hold'em, Zhou Zhen pecked each other with a group of rookies, and won two hundred dollars.

When he was proud, the phone rang, it was the phone of the third uncle Zhou Youguo. "Third uncle."

The third uncle's crying voice came from the other side of the phone. "Xiao Zhen, your grandfather is gone......"

Grandpa Zhou Zhen's health is not very good, but Zhou Zhen didn't expect to leave so soon.

He also saw it once during the Chinese New Year, and it was quite good at the time.

When I asked, I found out that there was another reason.

Zhou Zhen's second uncle was smart since he was a child, with good grades in school, and he worked in government agencies after graduating from secondary school in the eighties.

He got married in the first year of work, and in the second year, he added his eldest grandson Zhou Yuandong to Zhou Zhen's grandparents.

At that time, Zhou Zhen and his father were still fishing, just married, and life was tight.

The old couple liked the second child since they were children, and later liked the eldest grandson, and the second grandson Zhou Jindong was also very popular with the old couple.

On the contrary, Zhou Zhi, who was born two years later, Zhou Zhen, who was born eight years later, and Zhou Xuan, who was born nine years later, are the same as other people's children in their eyes.

They are partial, which creates a lot of family conflicts.

Especially Zhou Zhen's mother Xu Gui'e has a straight personality, and there is no room for sand in her eyes, and the relationship with the old couple cannot be said to be the same as water and fire, and she is also disgusted by both looks.

Zhou Zhen's second uncle also knew that he was at a loss, and he said in his early years that he would give the second old man a pension.

The village was demolished at that time, and the old couple didn't want a house, so they bought a house for each of their two grandsons, and gave the rest to Zhou Zhen's second uncle.

Zhou Zhen's family and the third uncle's family didn't get a cent.

But unfortunately, Zhou Zhen's second aunt died of a cerebral hemorrhage in her early forties.

Second Uncle Zhou Zhen found another young one, but he was a short-tempered one, and he couldn't eat in the same pot as the old two.

At first, I endured it for a few years, but then the trouble was incompatible, and Zhou Zhen's second uncle had no choice but to send the old couple to Zhou Zhen's house.

Even so, the old couple still favored the two eldest grandsons, anyway, they were similar to outsiders to Zhou Zhen.

In the past, they were given some pocket money, but they didn't spend it, and they also subsidized it to their two eldest grandchildren.

Later, Zhou Zhen's parents didn't give a penny, anyway, they just ate and drank well, and hired a nanny to take care of them.

During the Chinese New Year, Zhou Zhen's family spent time in the United States, and the old couple went to their eldest grandson's house for the New Year.

Of course, Zhou Yuandong has nothing to say, the house he lives in was bought by the old couple, his grandparents kissed him, and he also kissed his grandparents.

But the old couple is used to big fish and meat in Zhou Zhen's house, and Zhou Yuandong's wife can endure these two ancestors for half a month, a month, but she can't endure it for a year.

After fifteen, the meaning of the words is to let the old couple go back to live. They occupied a bedroom, and the nanny occupied Zhou Yuandong's study, and the family's life was greatly affected.

But Grandpa Zhou Zhen thought that his granddaughter-in-law drove him away, and called his grandson back to comment.

Zhou Yuandong also said that Zhou Zhen's house is big, and there is a vegetable garden at home, so they live more comfortably.

The old man thought that the eldest grandson also disliked him, so he left angrily, and as soon as he went out, he turned his back on him.

Sent to the hospital, his grandfather did not come to the rescue, and his grandmother also went in.

Zhou Zhen has a cold relationship with his two cousins, mainly due to jealousy.

They are all grandchildren, why is there such a big difference?

After understanding the situation, Zhou Zhen immediately asked Meng Lei to book a ticket for him.

No matter how close it is, it's also my grandparents.

I just sent my parents away at noon, and I'm afraid they're still in Los Angeles now, and now I'm going to go back with them.

Before he got on the plane, he received a call from his parents, and they went back first, while Wang Yuejun changed the ticket and waited for Zhou Zhen to go home together.

Huo Ya didn't have anything to say here, he knew Zhou Zhen's strength best, and knew that Zhou Zhen only needed to show half of his strength to be able to beat invincible opponents all over the world in the light heavyweight division.

Others need to train, they need to stay in shape, but he doesn't.

As long as he arrives in London a day early and attends the re-examination, it will be fine.

Zhou Zhen took a red-eye flight from Philadelphia to Los Angeles alone to meet Wang Yuejun.

took Wang Yuejun to rest in his rented house for a day, and got on the plane back to Green Island that afternoon.

As soon as he got off the plane, Zhou Xuan, who came to pick him up, told him that his grandmother had followed him because of excessive grief.

After getting the news, Zhou Zhen was a little disappointed, and he still wanted to come back and give his grandmother a rejuvenation pill, but now he doesn't need it.

Wang Yuejun already knew that Zhou Zhen had little affection for her grandparents, and she loved the house and Wu at most, and there was no grief.

When I heard the news, I was touched. "I really envy such a love ......"

Zhou Zhen's house has already set up a mourning hall, and most of the women who are idle at home in Banshan Kiln Village, as well as the men who have not gone to sea, have also come to help.

The family is big, no matter what you do, you can do it beautifully, at least the scene is very large.

There are only two people who are not beautiful, Zhou Zhen's second uncle and cousin Zhou Yuandong, as the parties, were beaten to death by Zhou Zhen's father and third uncle.

Although the two people did not break their arms and legs, they also had blue noses and swollen faces, and knelt next to the two coffins to welcome the guests.

All the cremation is required on the Green Island, and the burial is also in the cemetery, but the custom is still to put the coffin.

As for the wives of both of them, they were not allowed to return to the village.

His second uncle's new aunt may not care about this, but Zhou Yuandong's wife has always regarded herself as the eldest granddaughter-in-law, and this time I am afraid it will not be comfortable.

Zhou Jindong is also a lot more honest, and he has been busy in the past few days, and he doesn't dare to slack off.

In good conscience, his second uncle, including his two cousins, is not a person without conscience, and each has its own difficulties.

But they took advantage of it, and finally lost the old couple to Zhou Zhen and his father, which is still a little unauthentic.

This accident was purely caused by them.

In the past, they didn't return to the village much, but after that, I am afraid that they will gradually drift away.

The grandparents died less than two days in a row, and they stopped for nine days together and were buried on the 27th.

On the day of the burial, Wang Yuejun also persuaded her parents to wear linen and filial piety in the name of her granddaughter-in-law.

Anyway, Zhou Zhen's heart was very moved.

After burying his grandparents, Zhou Zhen was ready to rest for a day and then went to London.

But before I got up the next day, people from the Municipal Propaganda Department came to visit.

They had just learned from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs two days ago that Zhou Zhen had become the image ambassador of the Austrian Tourist Board, and this time they had to cooperate with the Austrian official visit to China.

Originally, he was supposed to come to the door two days ago, but the funeral at his home was delayed until today.

Zhou Zhen didn't have time to say goodbye to Wang Yuejun, so he was taken on the plane to the capital by the group.

At the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Zhou Zhen stayed for three days, received training in diplomatic etiquette, and obtained a diplomatic manual before being allowed to leave for London.

If it weren't for the start of the race in London, he would have been training for at least a week.

Even so, he needs to come back for training after the London game.

The organizers of the super welterweight championship in London are Hoya and Maximilian, who is the promoter of the famous Kazakh fighter Golovkin.

Golovkin is now IBF's super welterweight champion, having drawn with Alvarez in a unified bout last September.

(This game is September '18, so don't take it seriously...... )

Zhou Zhen arrived in London on the 30th, underwent a medical examination on the same day, and the next day the competition was held at the O2 Arena in London.

Built for the millennium, this multi-purpose stadium is the world's most advanced indoor stadium and has the world's most advanced sound system to host a variety of concerts.

Zhou Zhen's opponent this time is a German named Balloch, who is tall and skinny, and his strength is his speed and pace.

If you face other people, this is an advantage, but in the face of Zhou Zhen, it is not an advantage at all.

In this game, as soon as Zhou Zhen appeared, he caused cheers from the audience, and he was no longer a transparent person.

His nickname "Spider-Man" also spread to London, and his flamboyant Typhoon also attracted fans.

And he lived up to expectations, showing a gorgeous boxing technique that made ordinary people dizzy, which caused cheers from the audience.

Balloch's pace is flexible, and his battle with Zhou Zhen is much more exciting than his fight against Suarez.

The two of them went back and forth on stage, and the gorgeous aesthetics of violence aroused cheers from the audience.

In the third round, Zhou Zhen made a slight effort and knocked out Balloch with one punch.

After the victory, Zhou Zhen also gave interviews to the media in the United Kingdom and other European countries, making his name more than just a fan of boxing.

In particular, his status as a Hollywood movie star has increased his attention.

The Facebook page that CAA helped him set up has added a lot of fans overnight, and most of them are women.

It is worth mentioning that the domestic Weibo, because of the victory in the two games and Xiaoliang's efforts to start publicity, the fans exceeded 10 million.

Many domestic media have commented on Zhou Zhen, this is the real little fresh meat.

Just as during the World Cup in Russia, Mbappe was sought after by the media, and Zhou Zhen, who is considered masculine, is more worthy of pursuit than most mother-in-law little fresh meat.

And this also attracted the targeting of a well-known team of small fresh meat, which was noisy in the domestic media.

Meng Lei is no longer busy by herself now, and Xiaoliang Studio has temporarily added two temporary assistants to her, who are responsible for managing fans.

When Zhou Zhen returned from London this time, there were already more fans at the airport to pick him up.

Zhou Zhen actually doesn't like this set, he wants to have his own life.

So for several days in a row, he has been in front of reporters and calling for rational star chasing on social media.

However, his appeal was not only useless, but increased a lot of popularity.

The domestic media's pursuit of him mainly stems from the fact that he is different from those little fresh meat who rely on twisting his ass and occupying traffic by topics.

And this kind of pursuit just made him more and more concerned.

At this time, Zhou Zhen really realized that he had become famous.

(This chapter is sealed, not in good condition, not well written.) )
