Walking to the door of the gym, the three of them stopped, and Zhang Peng took the lead in speaking: "Brother Dong, I'm sorry, I was impulsive just now, and I said that you want to join the club without your consent." ”

"It's okay, I can understand how you felt at the time. Qi Dong smiled and said.

Seeing that Qi Dong was not angry, Zhang Peng also breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "Brother Dong, seriously, there are many benefits to joining our association, especially for a powerful person like you. ”

"Oh? Hearing Zhang Peng say that joining the club would be beneficial, Qi Dong immediately became interested.

"For example, if you have a professional coach to guide you through wrist training, you can go abroad to participate in international wrist wrestling competitions, you can travel around the world to taste food, hey, there are so many benefits anyway, I can't say it all at once. Zhang Peng said with a little excitement.

"Really, it's all free, and every member has such treatment?" Qi Dong asked with some disbelief after hearing this.

"Hehe, I've heard that for a while, they can introduce us to girlfriends for free. At this time, Ding Song on the side couldn't help but interject, and then a yearning look appeared on his face.

"Go, go and go, Ding Song, don't be foolish, Brother Dong seems to be a person who lacks a girlfriend?" Zhang Peng glanced at Ding Song angrily, and then turned back to Qi Dong and said, "Brother Dong, what I just said is true, it really doesn't cost money, but some membership points will be deducted." ”

"Membership points?" Qi Dong asked with some confusion.

"Well, Brother Dong, you should have heard it just now, that frustrated man wants to deduct ten points from me and Ding Song, and that's what he said. Zhang Peng said quite angrily, the frustration in his mouth should be the vice president Chen Ping, obviously he is still a little worried about what happened just now.

After a pause, Zhang Peng continued: "There are many ways to get this membership point, and the easiest way is to participate in the activities in the meeting, and you can add 10 points every time you participate.

During the event, you will add some points if you win an opponent once, and five points will be deducted if you lose, and you can challenge other members, of course, others can also reject your challenge.

Most members earn points through these two methods, but there are some other ways, but the difficulty is higher.

For example, if you participate in a wrist-wrestling competition in the city, you can get extra points for your ranking, and I think you can get 100 points for first place. Provincial competitions, national competitions, and even international competitions add even more points.

But for players of average quality like us, don't think about it. Hehe, Brother Dong, you can try it, with your strength and professional training, it is really possible to get a good ranking. ”

Qi Dong kept nodding his head while listening, thinking that this rule was quite fair, but he was still a little puzzled, and asked again: "Then what if others see that you are strong and do not accept your challenge?"

"Oh, I didn't make it clear. During the event, everyone's first five challenges cannot be rejected, and the higher the ranking of the opponent you challenge, the more points will be added, but only five points will be deducted if you lose, this is to encourage members to have the courage to challenge others who are better than themselves. Zhang Peng immediately replied, "In this way, members will carefully choose their first five opponents to challenge, anyway, Ding Song and I rarely take risks, and most of them choose people who are equal to their own strength." Of course, there are also some people who are eager for quick success and challenge highly-ranked members in order to get a large number of points at once, but there are very few who succeed. ”

"Ranking, what is this ranking based on?" Qi Dong asked again.

"It's ranked according to the points, because the number of points can roughly reflect the strength of the person. Zhang Peng replied, "This ranking will be updated once after each event and will be published on the association's website. The last time I watched it, the first in line was our president, who already had more than 5,000 points, and he didn't know how to use them. ”

"Do you mean that Chen Ping just now?" Qi Dong said with some uncertainty.

"Alas, of course not, how can that frustrated man be so powerful!" Zhang Peng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Chen Ping is just our vice president, he can only achieve this position because he provides a place for activities, and his popularity is not bad, he can't rank in the top fifty in terms of strength alone!"

"Oh, that's right. Qi Dong nodded, and then said with a slight smile, "Then what are you and Ding Song in the first place?"

"Hehe, Brother Dong, don't laugh at us, Ding Song and I only have more than 800 points, and we still rely on the diligence of participating in the event, even then we can't rank in the top 300. Zhang Peng scratched his head embarrassedly, and Ding Song on the side was also embarrassed.

"Are there so many people? I see there are only thirty or forty people in this gym!" Qi Dong became more and more confused the more he listened.

"Haha, Brother Dong, you don't think that our association is so good!" Zhang Peng responded with a smile, "Shanghai Port City is so big, how can it be possible to get together for every event." Weekly events like today's are generally conducted by geographical divisions, with each district having a vice president to preside over it. If you count the members of the entire Shanghai Port City, there are five or six hundred people. ”

Qi Dong nodded suddenly, thinking that this is reasonable, if there are only so many people in this gym, then this wrist strength association is too small.

"Brother Dong, what do you think, do you want to join our Wrist Strength Association?" Zhang Peng asked with a smile, "There are so many benefits, it's a pity not to take them." ”

Qi Dong thought about it carefully after hearing this, Zhang Peng was right, the benefits of joining the club are indeed a little, but I just don't know if there are any harms, thinking about it like this, he asked again: "Ah Peng, you just said so many benefits, I am really quite impressed when I hear it, but since members can enjoy so many rights, there should also be some obligations, right?"

"Well, if you have to say that you have to pay your dues once a year. Zhang Peng put away his smile and said, "After all, it takes funds to hold activities and distribute benefits in the club, except for the support of those few financiers, the rest are shared among the members." There are no other obligations. ”

"Oh, how much do you have to pay the membership dues? If I join now, will I have to pay the membership dues for the whole year?" Qi Dong was not surprised by Zhang Peng's words, but whether it was cost-effective or not, he had to think about it carefully.

"The annual membership fee is 1,000 yuan, and if the time of joining is less than 180 days before the end of the year, then you only need to pay half a year's membership fee, and if it is exceeded, you will have to pay the membership fee for the whole year. Zhang Peng replied, "Brother Dong, a thousand a year is really not much, converted to less than a hundred yuan per month, with your strength, the value of the points you can get will definitely far exceed the membership fee." By the way, if you don't need those benefits, then these points can be exchanged for RMB. ”

"Ah, can it be directly exchanged for money?" Hearing Zhang Peng's last sentence, Qi Dong was really taken aback, to be honest, he didn't have much interest in the benefits that Zhang Peng said before, but if he could convert points into money, it would be completely different.

"Well, yes, it's just a little bit uneconomical, the exchange ratio is only one to one, and it's better to exchange points for some benefits. Zhang Peng nodded and replied, "Ding Song and I have already planned to go on a trip to Europe together when we both have accumulated two thousand points." ”

"Alas, two thousand points, I don't know when it will be!" Ding Song on the side sighed and said.

"Don't worry, as long as we participate in every event and pick some confident opponents, we should be able to save in half a year. Zhang Peng patted Ding Song's shoulder and comforted.

At this moment, Qi Dong has already thought about it, and the membership fee of 1,000 a year is really not a small amount for him. However, he still has 3,000 yuan in the marathon prize money in his hand, which he has not spent much so far, and now he can use it, and thinking of his increasing appetite, he should indeed make plans for the future.

Thinking of this, Qi Dong no longer hesitated, and said to Zhang Peng and Ding Song: "I decided to join!"
