Chapter 47: Shigeru Oshima
According to Coach Wu, they arranged for me to play an exhibition match tomorrow with Shigeru Oshima, a rookie fighter, out of multiple considerations.
First of all, Sino-Japanese relations have been tense in recent years, and there has been strong anti-Japanese sentiment among the people. If you organize a boxing duel between China and Japan at this time, it will definitely attract the attention of many people.
And my identity as a former Chinese special forces soldier is bound to push the attention of this boxing match to a new peak.
Secondly, according to the relevant departmental requirements, the fight match between China and Japan must ensure that the Chinese player finally wins before it can be approved.
It was easier to find someone like Shigeru Oshima who was very different from me in all aspects, and it was easier to get the relevant approval.
The most important point is that although Shigeru Oshima is not very good at fighting, he is a veteran who has participated in dozens of exhibition matches, and is especially good at various styles of playing in the face slapping routine.
It is precisely because of this that they let Shigeru Oshima, a rookie in fighting, partner with me, a rookie in the exhibition match! This can be regarded as a kind of complementary advantages between rookies.
After some contact, I feel that Shigeru Oshima is quite real, and his experience is quite interesting.
According to his own words, his previous dream was to become an actor, and he also applied for Tokyo University of the Arts many times, but in the end he failed to be admitted for various reasons.
Shigeru Oshima said that he came to China to study because he was largely inspired by Japanese actors such as Koji Yano, Kanjun Yoneoka, and Kenichi Miura.
Shigeru Oshima also wanted to be like them, come to China to be a professional devil, and then realize his dream of becoming an actor.
It's a pity that the heavens don't fulfill people's wishes.
Shigeru Oshima, a young Japanese man with great enthusiasm for his acting career, stayed in China for three years for his ideals.
As a result, he was about to graduate from college, and he didn't realize his dream. Now let alone being an actor, he has not had the opportunity to be a group performer a few times.
The reason for this is that the image of Shigeru Oshima is too delicate, which is completely inconsistent with the fierce and vicious temperament of Japanese devils.
Of course, he didn't have no chances.
After his unremitting efforts, there was really a crew of an anti-Japanese drama who extended an olive branch to him.
It's just that character...... Hehe, it's a reverse string, the crew asked him to play a Japanese shemale geisha!
Although Shigeru Oshima has hit a wall in the film and television industry, some things are like second-hand roses singing in "Scum":
The east is not bright, the west is bright, and I am sad when the sun is exhausted; I am not busy the night before and busy the night after, after dreaming of gold, I dream of yellow sorghum......
Shigeru Oshima himself didn't expect that because of the few opportunities to be a group performer, he actually met a martial arts instructor, and then became a boxer in a combat exhibition match under his guidance.
After that, with years of self-taught acting skills, coupled with the dedication of the Japanese, he quickly gained a foothold in the Bo Ring and finally fulfilled his dream of being an actor on another stage.
After chatting with Coach Wu and Shigeru Oshima, we started the afternoon training.
Since the next day was a pretending to be forced to punch the face and knock out, we didn't have many feints to train in the afternoon.
And compared to Shigeru Oshima, who rolls his eyes and pulls out after falling to the ground, I have less training. I just need to control the force of my punches and do my best not to get hurt by Shigeru Oshima.
Due to the poor lack of movement, it only took a little more than an hour for Shigeru Oshima and I to cooperate very well.
We even elevated the one-punch knockout to the point where I knocked Shigeru Oshima into the ring with one punch and he fell to the ground unconscious.
After the feint practice, I got out of the ring with ease, and I felt that this kind of exhibition match was not difficult.
But the next work made me realize that things are not so simple!
In Coach Wu's words: feints are just hors d'oeuvres. The real problem of the exhibition match, and the most testing of acting skills, is actually the provocation between the fighters before the start of the competition......
