In addition to not having to work during school, he worked eight hours a day on holidays, 400 yuan a day, and when he was busy, he had to work overtime at night. Half of them were spent on the road. He will be seen in many bar streets in Shenzhen, such as: OCT Bar Street, Window of the World Bar Street, CocoPark Bar Street, Fifth Avenue Bar Street, Shekou Bar Street...... But no one cared about him. In the city of sex and the city, he is as humble as an ant, and he drives this dilapidated Jiefang light truck around the tangled highways of Shenzhen, like a tired camel running in the steel jungle.

Just as he was immersed in the nostalgia of the past, the freight elevator door cracked open. The pale-faced bar maître d'être came out with a few waiters and a cart. The foreman said hello to him, counted the crates of beer, signed the delivery note, then pressed the freight elevator and walked in. Tang Long followed the bar foreman and took the freight elevator to the True Color Bar on the fourth floor.

The walls on both sides of the corridor at the entrance of the True Color Bar are plastered with photos of celebrities who have sung here or visited the True Color Bar, silently narrating the excellent tradition of the bar's original music culture, and the most legendary resident singer is undoubtedly Chen Chusheng, who stepped onto the dazzling stage of Happy Boys in 2007 and won the national championship, becoming famous in one fell swoop. The foreman had disappeared into the bar, and Tang Long was still standing in front of Chen Chusheng's photo for a long time, looking at this incomparably beautiful entertainment star.

The sad melody of the song "Has Anyone Told You" sung by Chen Chusheng vaguely sounded in his ears, and he remembered the two lyrics of the song: In the city that never sleeps without seeing snow, I hear some people cheering and some people crying......

The bar was empty, with only a few waiters bowing their heads to clean up, and although the exhaust fan was turned on and the air was circulating, you could still smell the unique smell of smoke, alcohol, disinfectant, and air freshener.

He came to the bar and handed the delivery list to Manager Hu who had a smooth back to sign. After Manager Hu signed, he took the list signed by Manager Hu, took the elevator, came to the parking lot, and drove a light truck to deliver goods to two bars on CocoPark Bar Street.

CocoPark is a well-known commercial shopping center in Shenzhen, close to the International Convention and Exhibition Center and Ping An International Financial Center, China's second tallest Ping An Financial Building is like a monument erected by the carnival capital, towering into the clouds, standing proudly, it has become the new pride of Shenzhen people, making the former Shenzhen landmark - the old Longzhong Diwang Building eclipsed in front of it. In addition to Shekou Bar Street, CocoPark Bar Street is a night club where foreigners tend to appear, and when the night is like a black dance skirt, there are always many Chinese beauties in the major bars here, with scantily clad clothes, long hair and shawls, bright faces, and red lips like blood. The long, thick and silky hair that flows from the top of their heads shows the unique and charming oriental style to the foreign men who are stimulated by alcohol and have an ever-increasing adrenaline. At one or two o'clock in the morning, it is the time when the cups are staggered and the fierce battle is in full swing, and people are dancing, or sitting, or cheering, or crying, or drinking, or drinking...... Outside the bustling bar street, the golden-lit road is becoming scarce, most of the shops are closed, and only the dazzling advertisements glitter in the misty night like giant fireflies.

After delivering drinks from two bars on CocoPark Bar Street, Tang Long drove home along Shennan Avenue when his phone rang as he drove to the vicinity of Fuyi Community Park on Shennan Middle Road. He looked down at the mobile phone fixed to the bracket at the air outlet of the air conditioner, which was a call from Fang Feiyun, a classmate and roommate at Shenzhen University, so he clicked the answer button.

"Tang Long, I'm guessing the train bar, let's get together! There's a white-collar fight tonight. Zhang Jun shouted excitedly on the other end of the phone.

"I'm driving and I'm on my way home."

"It's okay, don't force you to drink, come over quickly!"

Fang Feiyun is his roommate and the only friend he has at Shenzhen University. There are four people living in their dormitory, except for Fang Feiyun, the other two roommates, one is called Lin Zhengdong and the other is called Fang Chengze, except for Tang Long, all three of them are Shenzhen natives. They are often absent from the dorm and either go home or go out on dates with their girlfriends. When Lin Zhengdong and Fang Chengze were in the dormitory, they were basically busy playing "Glory of Kings" all night, and they slept during the day. Tang Long, Fang Feiyun's communication with them was only limited to daily politeness, and then when the two of them were playing games in the middle of the night and screaming excitedly, they couldn't bear to beg them to be quiet, so as not to affect him and Fang Feiyun's sleep.

Fang Feiyun's family is wealthy and cheerful, and he has a very beautiful girlfriend named Li Fei'er, who is a student in the English Department of the Foreign Chinese College at the same level as them. Tang Long and Fang Feiyun have one thing in common, that is, they both have a martial arts dream, and they both like to watch martial arts fighting competitions.

After Tang Long hung up the phone, he didn't hesitate for a moment, immediately changed his route, drove to the Fifth Avenue Bar Street in Nigang West, and walked straight to guess the train after parking the car.

Trainspotting is a large train-themed punk bar that is very famous in the bar industry in Shenzhen, not far from Shenzhen University. The wall at the entrance to the bar is covered with decorative railroad rails, blue-brown sleepers and rusty steel rails, depicting the simple and hard lines of an iron fence, and on the top of the door stand three train wheels, which are inlaid with three large characters - Trainguessing, these three large characters are cut by electric welding on the ochre-yellow crumpled iron sheet, combined with the train wheels, like the face of a robot as rough and cold, it is easy to recall the famous punk movie "Trainspotting" shot in Edinburgh, England.

The hall in the bar is huge, more than 600 square meters, which can accommodate several hundred people. In the middle of the wall and ceiling hall there is a large square lifting stage, scattered around the stage, some booths are placed near the corners, and across the hall, there are lounges and VIP rooms.

Walking into the bar, the most shocking thing is not the huge space, but the large and small layers of gears, wheels, punk vapor lamps and various mechanical devices hanging on the walls of the bar, plus the robots that constantly turn their eyes standing quietly in the corners of the four walls, under the dim light of the punk vapor lamps, the whole bar is like a magical world ruled by machines. The large bar is designed to be a train ready to depart on the tracks, the locomotive still emits wisps of white steam from time to time, and the wine cabinet behind the bar is filled with a variety of imported spirits, beers, and red wines. The clock on the bar counter is also designed to be a gear that keeps running, and the second is like a ferryman in the river of time, constantly cruising in this round river, without stopping for a moment.

This bar is famous not only because of its punk culture, but also because it hosts white-collar fighting matches every night. The people who came to participate in the competition were all amateurs in the city's kickboxing, both men and women, and each of them had different identities, including company executives, factory workers, lawyers, police officers, teachers, and college students...... Of course, there are also some rookie fighters who have just started training and haven't been able to fight. Everyone comes to the competition in a different mood and for different purposes. Some people are looking for vents, some are trying to experience the charm of free fighting, some are trying to break through themselves, some are coming here to fight because they have conflicts with others, some people are here to accumulate experience in free fighting, and some people are simply enjoying this kind of violent behavior.

People who come here to participate in the free fighting competition, most of them are influenced by martial arts novels and television, and have a martial arts dream since childhood, walking the rivers and lakes, happy and revenge, under the oppression of reality, they are getting farther and farther away from their dreams, but they are not willing to be broken dreams and go with the flow, so they choose to come here to be a real chivalrous man, temporarily free from the cage of reality, and enjoy the fun given by dreams and original intentions.

For real professional fighters, this kind of fighting match that is not even a level 3 tournament is not a fight, it is not in the stream, the appearance fee is very low, and they disdain to participate in such a match. But for these fighters who come to the bar in search of their lost dreams, this little ring in the bar is their altar and faith.

A bar is an undercurrent of turbulent rivers and lakes; A ring, as if the only lifeboat on the rivers and lakes, this lifeboat has only one seat, and can only carry one guest across the other side at a time. If you want to go to the other side, you must use all your strength, fight with all your might, and keep fighting, otherwise you will be drowned by the rising waves, and no one will have mercy on the weak overboard. The law of the jungle, the survival of the fittest, and the beastly nature hidden in a hidden corner of the human body are vividly released in this narrow space and displayed in front of the world at a glance.

After someone wins the game, he looks up to the sky and howls; Someone was unfortunately defeated, crying bitterly - the reality is still so cruel, although he is lucky, but the bubble of his dream is still punctured by his opponent, he falls from the sky to the ground, and becomes the insulted party in reality, and in the bar, many people send boos and ridicule to the losing side with bad intentions - everything in the ring is always so cruel and evil. People will always look up to the only winner, applause and heartfelt cheers, and they will always only give them, but never look down on the scarred heart of the loser, to feel their pain, this is the cruelty of free fighting, but it is also the charm.
