39 Brutal format
Tiefutu didn't communicate much with Qi Lin, the two didn't like each other, and in fact, they couldn't communicate together at all.
However, Lin Qi is quite interested in Tiefutu.
"I almost signed for Iron Floating last year." Lin Qi suddenly spoke.
Qi Lin was a little surprised.
Lin Qi smiled: "Don't underestimate him too much, in fact, throughout last season, Tiefutu's performance was no worse than Zhao Qingkong, and even in the finals, he once suppressed Zhao Qingkong." It was only at the last moment that Zhao Qingkong didn't know why he suddenly beat the chicken blood, and Tiefutu was finally defeated. Many martial arts seniors are very optimistic about Tiefutu, and his inheritance is also good. ”
"I can see it, he should be an outer disciple of Shaolin Temple, and his body protection skills should be very good." Qi Lin nodded.
Although he is confident, he is not really above the top.
"If he had won the title last year, I would have signed him. But if he loses, once a young man fails, it's easy to fall down, so I'm going to look at him for another season. ”
Lin Qi's plan was normal, Qi Lin was just a strange thing: "What are you talking to me about this?" It's not going to let me release water when I meet him, right? ”
Lin Qi glanced at Qi Lin, "I want to tell you that Tiefutu is not a person who talks about it. I surveyed him, and this man has many shortcomings, but he is conceited and rarely lies. ”
"So what? I've always been clean and clean. Qi Lin shrugged his shoulders and didn't pay attention to it at all.
Lin Qi mentioned it casually, and soon, the two of them came to their respective seats under the guidance of the waiter.
They didn't wait too long.
Half an hour later, Yang Wudi, the director of the General Administration of Martial Arts, came to the rostrum surrounded by everyone.
Seeing that Yang was invincible, Qi Lin's back was all the way, and the whole person became a lot more energetic.
This is a super master who has basically locked in the top ten of the Martial Arts Hall of Fame.
When he was in office, Yang Wudi basically completed the grand slam of his martial arts career, and he won the championship as the absolute main force and even the captain of the Chinese Super League, the AFC Champions League, and the World Cup.
After retiring, he started working as a professional coach and won three more cups as a coach, the first person in the world.
In terms of martial arts achievements alone, Yang Wushu is not unprecedented.
But when it comes to overall achievements, Yang Wudi is definitely worthy of his name.
Since Yang's invincibility, the competition in the Chinese Super League has become increasingly fierce, but the external record of the Chinese national team and Chinese Super League clubs is much worse.
The country may also look faceless, a year ago, after the director of the General Administration of Martial Arts reached the age of office, the elder group solicited opinions from all walks of life, and finally invited Yang Wudi out of the mountain to serve as the director of the General Administration of Martial Arts.
Yang Wudi resigned twice and finally took office.
Last season, it was a no-brainer.
But this is the second year since he took office, and it's time for him to start his own transformation.
A lot of people are waiting, including Qi Lin.
"Sister Qi, with Yang Invincible's level, he will actually come to the scene in person, it's too face-saving, right?" Qi Lin asked in a low voice.
The director of the General Administration of Martial Arts, who is the minister of defense, is a real ministerial-level boss.
Yang Wushu originally had a transcendent position in the martial arts circle of the Celestial Empire, and after he became the director of the General Administration of Martial Arts, he naturally went one step further and was a real powerful person.
There are too many levels between him and college students.
Lin Qi's eyes also flashed, a little surprised, but she knew Yang Wudi better, and she also knew the recent situation.
Based on all aspects of intelligence, Lin Qi guessed: "Yang Wushu is a martial artist, which is completely different from the previous director of the General Bureau. He will be more down-to-earth and more powerful than ever. I'm afraid that this reform will be bigger than I expected, so be mentally prepared. ”
Lin Qi guessed the point.
Yang Wudi is really completely different from the style of the previous General Bureau.
Although it was broadcast live by CCTV, Yang Wudi spoke quite frankly:
"Ladies and gentlemen, Yang is a martial artist, so he doesn't say too much about the scene, and I believe you don't like to listen to those long speeches. I'll cut a long story short, but please listen carefully. ”
"Elder Meng took a fancy to me and asked me to be the director of this Martial Arts Bureau. I spent a year researching and getting acquainted with the situation. Now, it's time for me to make some changes. ”
"The impact of the Chinese Super League is too great, and I have to do some experiments in advance, so I fancy the University Martial Arts League. This year's University Martial Arts League is different from the past, and there will be a lot of new regulations. I have only one goal: to make the game more intense, more exciting, and more people to watch. Here are a few new rules to announce:
First: martial arts competition, three wins in five games, and the time limit for each game is 30 minutes. In 30 minutes, no winner or loser will be held, and an undefended battle will be conducted. The meaning of an undefended war is that the two sides of the war have attacked each other with all their might, and the other side cannot resist, but can only make a hard connection. If you don't understand the rules, go to see the penalty shootouts in football before.
Second: The rookie king of this year's college martial arts league is not selected from the champion team, but by the number of heads. As long as you have the strength, even if your team is weak, the General Administration will not turn a blind eye. ”
For these two points, Lin Qi had already given Qi Lin a preventive shot, so Qi Lin was not surprised.
Although the scene is already boiling.
The attitude of the General Administration of Martial Arts is too obvious, from now on, the attacking martial artists will be supported from all sides, and the defensive martial artists are destined to prove themselves through stronger strength.
But this is not the highlight of Yang Wuving's words.
"Third: This season's University Martial Arts League will use the World Cup format."
"What?"
"World Cup format?"
"Did I hear me wrong?"
When Yang Wuyi's voice fell, the General Administration building was completely boiling.
Almost all of them couldn't sit still, including Qi Lin.
Qi Lin turned his head to look at Lin Qi and found that Lin Qi was just as shocked.
He confirmed that he had heard correctly.
However, Yang Wushu is too crazy.
In the past, the University Martial Arts League followed the AFC Champions League system, with 32 participating teams, divided into 8 groups, each group of 4 teams, each team will play home and away with the other three opponents in the same group, and finally two teams will stand out and advance to the first round of knockouts.
In the knockout stage, from the round of 16 to the semi-finals, each team will play two home and away matches against their opponents in each round. In the round of 16, the winners and runners-up of each group will not meet, although this rule is no longer valid after reaching the quarter-finals.
It is only in the final that a winner-or-lose format will be used.
But in the World Cup format, there is only one game in all competitions.
There were 48 games in the group stage, 8 games in the 1/8 finals, 4 games in the 1/4 finals, two games in the semifinals, one match for the third and fourth places, and one final for the champion and runner-up.
This requires the participating teams to not lose a single game.
If you lose one, it is very likely that you will never recover.
There are fewer games, but the schedule is twice as brutal as before.
Qi Lin was shocked, this kind of win-win match is indeed more attractive to spectators and sponsors, but the requirements for martial artists are too high.
But he also quickly reacted, the more he came out of such a cruel format, the more it showed the strength of the winner.
For the truly strong, no regulation should be an excuse for their failure.
