Chapter 34: The First Martial Arts Association in the World
Back in Xiangjiang, Ip Man, Hong Zhennan and others made a small reception banquet for Gu Fei.
The people invited to the banquet were all people from the martial arts world, and these people had more or less heard of Gu Fei's deeds in Singapore, understood Gu Fei's strength, and gave Gu Fei a toast and paid money one by one.
After that, Gu Fei's life returned to peace, and most of the time, he went back to exchange some experiences with those martial artists. It's just that Gu Fei's realm is even higher than Ip Man, and these martial artists can give him very little help.
Gu Fei and Ip Man Hong Zhennan have fought each other, and the two of them need to join forces to draw with Gu Fei.
The only thing that gave Gu Fei a little headache was that Hong Zhennan's daughter Hong Xiulan fell in love with him, but he was a traverser, and Hong Xiulan was Hong Zhennan's daughter, Gu Fei couldn't do anything to others and then pat his ass and leave, he could only choose to avoid the other party.
As for Zhang Yongcheng's cancer, Gu Fei found an opportunity to panic with Ip Man and said that he had met an old Chinese medicine doctor when he was traveling, and the old Chinese medicine doctor had studied cancer for many years and could see that people prone to cancer had studied some of it, and found that Zhang Yongcheng belonged to a physique that was prone to cancer, so he asked Ip Man to take Zhang Yongcheng for a check-up every six months.
Ip Man didn't believe it very much, he only felt that Gu Fei was worried about his master's body, and Gu Fei was also for their good, so Ip Man simply promised that in the future, his husband and wife would go to have a comprehensive physical examination every six months, so as not to let Gu Fei, a disciple, worry.
It was so easy, and the assistant reminded Gu Fei that the side task of "saving Zhang Yongcheng" was completed.
Gu Fei couldn't believe it, this was too simple, right?
The side quests were completed, and Gu Fei practiced martial arts for three months with peace of mind, but he was still stuck outside the gate of Huajin and couldn't take this step.
After a few deliberations, Gu Fei decided to advance the "No. 1 Martial Arts Association in the World", a Ip Man world with low force value, and he didn't want to waste too much time.
He has been in the world of Ip Man for four whole years, he is twenty-six years old, he doesn't know when he will be able to enter the world of life extension, compared to the point where he is not very clear about the role of the task, he cares more about lifespan, he doesn't want to die of old age after a few worlds.
decided to do it, Gu Fei first announced his identity to the outside world, and then sold various copyrights of his novels in exchange for money (permanent sale), on the other hand, he negotiated with the British and Hong Kong Governors, and persuaded the Xiangjiang martial arts community.
A world-class fighting event is not something that can be initiated by one person, Gu Fei initiated it in the name of the entire Xiangjiang martial arts community.
Gu Fei spent more than a month on all aspects of communication, and this was still the time when he held the titles of "Martial Arts Grandmaster", "King of Magic", "Defeating the World Boxing Champion", "Spokesperson of the Xiangjiang Martial Arts World", plus a lot of money to establish relationships.
Gu Fei sold everything he could sell for money, and even borrowed 1.5 million pounds from the bank, with a total of 3.5 million pounds of available funds in his hands, which was barely enough.
(Note: In the 50s of the last century, 1 pound ≈ 2.8 US dollars, the purchasing power of 1 US dollar at that time≈ now 9 US dollars purchasing power, now 1 US dollar≈ now 6.8 RMB, then 1 million pounds ≈ now 170 million RMB)
In a capitalist society, money can make ghosts grind, and less than ten years after the end of World War II, the world economy is still in a quagmire, and the Hong Kong Governor has no reason not to agree to this kind of competition that can stimulate the economy.
Half a month later, the "No. 1 Martial Arts Association in the World" officially entered the preparatory stage......
The most intriguing thing is the £1,000,000 first-place prize, which can drive anyone crazy!
On the other hand, under the money offensive, the Guinness Book of World Records was selected as the "world's most combat-ready human being", although this strongest will have to be added a year later.
But it's also extremely attractive, there are people who don't care about money, and there are really few people who don't care about fame! Not to mention that this is the first person in human history to be called the strongest!
Who doesn't want to go down in history?

……
On June 1, 1954, the world's major newspapers unanimously publicized the "World's No. 1 Martial Arts Association", and the World's No. 1 Martial Arts Association officially entered the global registration stage.
The news is constantly spreading, whether it is for fame or profit, countless martial arts masters who think they are strong have signed up, and even many war-torn countries have signed up.
But there are very few successful registrations, because Gu Fei has come up with a limitation, you must be able to break a 4 cm conventional wooden board with one blow to be eligible for the competition!
Like taekwondo performances in later generations, the thickness of the wooden board is only 1 cm, you know, every time the thickness is doubled, the difficulty will even increase several times!
On the real earth, there is no one who can penetrate a 4-centimeter plank, Gu Fei has tested it, and this requires a destructive power that is extremely close to the air explosion fist to break it.
The opening ceremony of the world's first martial arts meeting is scheduled for October 7th, and four months is enough time for masters from all over the world to gather.
Time passes day by day, the world's first martial arts club continues to attract the attention of the world, from time to time there are news reports that a master is going to compete, the world's heavyweight boxing champions, various fighting champions, black boxing champions from all over the world, special forces from various countries, and even what claims to be martial saints, living Buddhas and other bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods, have declared that they will win the title of the world's first......
In this overwhelming heated discussion, the world's first martial arts conference has been hailed as a great competition that shows the true physical fitness and real fighting of human beings in history.
There are even extremists clamoring: "The world's first martial arts meeting will be a conference to distinguish the advantages and disadvantages of human races, and whoever wins the first race is the best race in the world." ”
The world's major casinos and gaming companies have opened special gambling projects for this world's first martial arts meeting......
As the martial arts club became more and more famous, a month later, the British and Hong Kong Governors couldn't help but intervene, these are all political achievements, just like the Olympics, which official doesn't want to hold such a world event in his jurisdiction.
Gu Fei was naturally happy to see it, he understood that it was inconvenient to rely on many things from private institutions alone, so he decisively let the British and Hong Kong Governors intervene, and he could also use the government's prestige and funds......
Since then, the world's first martial arts club has also become a martial arts event jointly organized by the British and Hong Kong Governors and the Hong Kong martial arts community.
In the last seven days of the competition, the best players from all over the world have gathered in Hong Kong to stay in several well-known hotels in Hong Kong, with the presence of the British Governor of Hong Kong, and this is a good opportunity to make a name for themselves in the world, and these hotels are free of charge for the contestants and their escorts.
Ye Man looked at a list of contestants and said with emotion: "This martial arts meeting can really be described as a world swing, dragons and snakes rise together, and the heroes compete for the deer, whether it is a hero, a reckless, a dragon or a snake, they all gather together to compete for the title of the first in the world, Ah Fei, are you sure?" ”
Gu Fei didn't answer, but looked at the information of these players, the assistant was still the same, saying that he was not the number one in the world and that he would continue to work hard, as for how many people could beat him, the assistant would not say anything.
Half a year after returning to Xiangjiang, his strength has long been stuck in a bottleneck, and he still can't touch the step of turning his strength into a half-year precipitation.
He understood that it was difficult, and Ip Man had been stuck for five or six years from the peak of dark energy to the transformation of strength.
Seeing that Gu Fei didn't speak, Ye Man patted Gu Fei on the shoulder and said, "Don't force everything, although I don't understand why you want to be the number one in the world so much, but no one can really be the first in the world, we all grow old one day......"
