Chapter 121: It's no fun to beat you
Holding the phone, Xiao Yong was a little confused.
General Administration of Sports, let yourself go to the national team's training camp?
If you haven't run a single sprint, you can enter the national team?
Xiao Yong has indeed never run a sprint, but his results are there, and his talent is there.
And during this period of time, there have also been various voices on the Internet that hope to get Xiao Yong into the national team training.
It was precisely because of various factors that Xiao Yong received this invitation.
He thought about it briefly and said seriously: "I'm sorry, I don't want to join the national team!" ”
The man on the other side of the phone was silent for a moment and said: "Xiao Yong, you are only 20 years old now, you can already run within ten seconds, train well, you may even challenge Bolt and become a flyer in Asia and even the world, whether it is honor or commercial value, there will be no less!" If you can win the Olympic championship, it will be a glory for the country! ”
Xiao Yong sighed and said: "I'm sorry, I still don't want to join the national team, I like mixed martial arts, I think, no matter what field I am, as long as I make achievements as our Chinese people, I will win glory for the country, and it doesn't have to be limited to the Olympics." ”
There was silence on the other side of the phone, and after a while, he said, "You think about it again, don't waste your talent!" ”
The phone hung up, and Xiao Yong shook his head slightly.
Although winning the Olympic championship is indeed a great temptation for him.
However, he really doesn't like simple boring training sprints.
He still prefers to play against the masters.
And to join the national team, Xiao Yong knows with his ass that there must be a lot of restrictions, and the management is estimated to be not too loose.
Where can it be compared to being at ease on the outside.
What's more, there has never been only one way to win glory for the country.
Xiao Yong knew very well that he was currently running within ten seconds.
But it is not so easy to win the world championship, and with the improvement of people's physical fitness, it is now the norm for Olympic champions to run within ten seconds.
And if Xiao Yong wants to keep every ten seconds and further speed up, he needs a lot of professional training!
Even every 01 second of improvement is extremely difficult.
I don't like it very much, and if he is asked to spend a lot of time and energy practicing, Xiao Yong is unwilling.
declined the invitation, and Xiao Yong didn't think too much about it.
Instead, they entered the system space and began training.
Eddie Alvarez, Xiao Yong will not underestimate him.
After all, he is a former UFC champion, and although he is no longer at his peak, he is also a top five player in the ONE rankings.
It's just that Xiao Yong didn't expect it.
A few days later, Su Feiren actually posted a Weibo in person.
"I sincerely hope that Xiao Yong can join the national team for training, after all, the 100-meter career needs new blood!"
As a man who devotes his entire youth to the 100-meter career, he also wants to have a successor, and now, he is in his thirties.
The 100m is one of the most physical sports, and he inevitably starts to go downhill.
But there are too few people in China who can take the lead.
At this moment, many people ran to Xiao Yong's account to leave messages.
"Xiao Yong, Su Shen personally invited you to the national team."
"That's right, you're so physical, why don't you participate in a sprint?"
"World champions, Olympic champions, isn't it fragrant?"
"That's the glory of the ancestors, maybe the genealogy can be written on a single page."
In the face of countless people's expectations, Xiao Yong finally responded.
He posted a message on his personal social media.
"I love fighting, just like you love sprinting, you sprint for China, won the world championship on behalf of Huaxia, won the gold medal, but the men's mixed martial arts in Huaxia has not won the championship in any of the top events in the world, I believe in myself, I can do this, I also understand that the success of any sport requires a lot of energy, time, I can't win all the honors on behalf of Huaxia, so I just want to do what I love and devote myself to at the moment. Thank you for your understanding. ”
Xiao Yong still chose to refuse.
He doesn't give up what he's passionate about because of other people's expectations.
What's more, some people expect him to sprint to win the championship, but there are also people who expect him to build glory in the field of fighting!
Xiao Yong's answer is still very satisfactory to the public.
Everyone also knows that you can't have both, and no one thinks that Xiao Yong can continue boxing if he goes to sprint training.
To be honest, Xiao Yong's fans are the most loyal and most of his fans.
They have expressed their support!
The filming of the movie is in full swing, and the competition between Xiao Yong and Alvarez is officially finalized, and the venue of the competition is set in Kyoto, China.
Generally speaking, this kind of competition must be held in big cities and core cities, the first is that the venue is easier to find, the second is that there are official training venues, and the surrounding supporting facilities are relatively perfect, and the third and most important thing is that the consumption capacity is strong! Population! Good ticket sales!
Every event needs to be held with great effort and effort, and the final result is nothing more than money.
In this game, Guan Huashan specially arranged five matches for Chinese players!
In order to fill the topic in China!
Thus selling more tickets.
and attract more people to watch the game through the Internet, and the match between Xiao Yong and Alvarez was the main event of the night.
After the match was scheduled and the publicity continued, ONE decided to hold a pre-fight press conference to raise the heat as much as possible.
This time, ONE President Guan Huashan did not preside over the press conference, and the press conference was hosted by Tang Xiao.
Xiao Yong came out of the hotel and went to the press conference!
However, when everyone arrived, the press conference was about to reach the scheduled time, only to find that Alvarez never showed up!
Tang Xiao's face was a little not good-looking.
Alvarez is the main event player, he's not here, what's going to happen with this press conference?
There was no choice but to try to contact Alvarez while waiting.
But at this time, it was found that neither Alvarez nor Alvarez's agent could be contacted at all.
So, Tang Xiao took all the fighters to wait in the passage for nearly twenty minutes.
The reporters waiting for the press conference in front of them were also a little anxious at this time.
Whispering,
"What's going on? Didn't you say that you would hold a press conference at half past one? It's going to be two o'clock. ”
"I don't know, just now the staff said that there is something temporary, let me wait a while, I don't know what it is."
"Hehe, if you don't come out for a long time, it seems that there must be news!"
"How long is it going to take?"
The reporters in the venue were anxious, and Tang Xiao was also anxious.
Seeing that the phone still couldn't get through, she angrily put the phone away.
"Let's go, let's go in!"
So, Tang Xiao entered the press conference hall with nine contestants!
Do it separately, and the media will see what is going on at a glance!
Lack of people!
Alvarez, didn't come!
"Ms. Tang Xiao, may I ask Alvarez, why didn't you attend the press conference?"
"I don't know." Tang Xiao kept his face calm as much as possible, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know where he went, logically he should come now, but he didn't, and I can't contact him." It is precisely because of him that the press conference just now can only be postponed! ”
Tang Xiao didn't bother to cover it up for him.
After a few brief words, Tang Xiao said: "Now let's start the group interview, but you can only interview Xiao Yong first." As for Alvarez, who knows. ”
The last sentence is obviously full of resentment.
Anyway, in today's matter, in her opinion, Alvarez ignored everyone, including her, the head of the Huaxia region.
At this time, a reporter stood up and asked Xiao Yong: "Xiao Yong, what do you think of Alvarez's behavior today!" ”
Ready-made news is right in front of them, where can they let it go?
Xiao Yong raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't know if he did it on purpose or how, but obviously, he is an irresponsible guy." If this kind of person is in my new movie "Wolves - Desperate Realm", he will definitely not live for five minutes! ”
Tang smiled: "??? ”
Reporter on the spot: "??? ”
Netizens who watched the live broadcast: "??? ”
Who asked you about the new movie.
In fact, since Xiao Yong's last press conference at ONE, he openly advertised the brand he endorsed.
Guan Huashan issued a new order, all contestants, prohibiting the introduction of their own endorsement brand advertisements at the press conference, violators will be severely fined.
However, in Xiao Yong's view, this means that endorsement advertisements are not allowed, and it is not said that he is not allowed to promote his own movies.
So how could he, who is burdened with the responsibility of movie promotion, let go of this opportunity?
There was silence at the scene, and another reporter stood up and asked, "Then do you think, can you win the match between you and Alvarez?" ”
"Of course, I have only one goal, which is to be the champion! I don't think there's anyone in ONE Lightweight who is my opponent! ”
Xiao Yong said without hesitation.
This time he didn't add any more movie promotion, after all, it was a fighting press conference, one time was enough, and more would be annoying.
The translator immediately translated Xiao Yong's words into English, after all, there were still many foreign reporters on the scene.
As soon as the translator's voice fell, there was a burst of wild laughter!
"Hahaha!"
Everyone looked along the laughter, only to find that it was Alvarez, who was wearing a suit and walked in with steps that he didn't recognize.
He came to Tang Xiao's place beside him, picked up the microphone, looked at Xiao Yong and exclaimed, "What are you talking about, kid?" I can't beat you? Who am I? I'm a UFC champion, who are you? You're a nobody! Why do you think you can beat me? ”
Xiao Yong tilted his head to look at him and sneered: "Just because I won't be knocked down four times in one game, I will fight like a dog!" ”
Hearing this, Alvarez's face turned pale, Conor McGregor.
It was an eternal pain in his heart.
It was Connor who pulled him off the throne at his most triumphant!
And in one game, with four brutal knockouts, his confidence was completely shattered!
Since then, his game form has been up and down!
has also completely lost its former glory!
The angry Alvarez said angrily: "Hehe, that's just that you haven't met a real master, and the highest-ranked Folayang you met is just a defeated opponent of my men!" You don't even have the qualifications to be on the top stage in the world and face the best masters! ”
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yong was fine, but Tang Xiao, who was sitting in the middle of the two, had an even more ugly face!
It can even be said to be a little gloomy.
She looked at Alvarez with a misguided look.
What did he mean by that? What does it mean that UFC is the world's top stage? One isn't?
Although from an objective point of view, Alvarez is indeed right!
But when is it? ONE's press conference!
You say such things in front of everyone?
However, Alvarez's words actually represent his mentality.
He's never looked down on these ONE fighters, and in his opinion, it's just a place to make money for himself, and if he adjusts well, no one here will be his opponent!
Alvarez's speech is not over, he can't stand being sprayed by Chinese netizens these days.
He gritted his teeth and said: "Boy, believe me, I will destroy you in one round, keep your ridiculous record of the end of one round, and then let you know that Huaxia Kung Fu can only exist in movies, and you, just hurry up and go back to making movies!" I'm going to be merciful enough to buy a movie ticket and see the movie made by you clown, and see how you can make a big deal in the movie and satisfy your poor self-esteem! ”
Facing Alvarez's ridicule, Xiao Yong sneered: "Do you think that even a lost dog like you can beat me?" Whether Huaxia Kung Fu can fight or not, I will tell you with my fists! ”
Alvarez was about to speak, but Tang Xiao picked up the microphone and said, "The next group of players!" ”
She doesn't want to listen to Alvarez anymore!
Next is the speech of the rest of the contestants, but the smell of gunpowder is really not strong compared to these two.
But there is no doubt that Alvarez's deliberate lateness, coupled with those provocative words, ignited the anger of all those who follow the event in the country!
They all ran to Xiao Yong's account to leave messages!
"This guy is really rampant, Xiao Yong, if you can't beat him, I will be black for the rest of my life!"
"The pressure must be given, if you win, my new movie will be made into, and I will contribute a movie ticket to you!"
"As a girl, I can't bear it, as long as you win this Alvarez, I'll take my brother to see your new movie, if my brother doesn't go, I'll beat him up and take it again!"
"Xiao Yong, I was originally your fan, but if you lose, I won't watch your new movie!"
"Wow, Xiao Yong actually has a fan?"
"Capture a fan alive and drag it out to castrate!"
Looking at these pressure monsters, Xiao Yong was speechless for a while!
But I have to say that he also has a fire in his heart!
In the training ground, Zheng Tiequan looked at Xiao Yong, who was conducting actual combat drills, and shouted: "Xiao Yong, what are you doing?" Your style of play is messy, don't use weird moves! ”
That's right, Xiao Yong was training with his opponent at this time, and he began to try to use some strange striking moves!
At least in Zheng Tiequan's eyes.
In his opinion, many moves do not work well.
At Xiao Yong's level, these actions are unnecessary.
Xiao Yong in the iron cage didn't say a word, he was still doing his own thing!
Finally, Zheng Tiequan stopped training!
"Xiao Yong!"
He called Xiao Yong in front of him and frowned, "What are you doing today?" ”
"Just practice some moves!" Xiao Yong said honestly: "I want to see if any of these kung fu I know can be used in the competition ring." ”
To put it bluntly, the effect of any move, the effect of the drill, and the effect of the actual combat is very different.
If Xiao Yong wants to extract the moves that can be used from the kung fu, he needs to make a lot of attempts in actual combat.
to determine what moves are appropriate and when.
And integrate it into its own fighting system, these trainings are not something that can be understood behind closed doors.
To put it bluntly, why are modern fighters strong? Although the number of matches is generally not too much, the actual combat training may have to be fought in thousands.
Those so-called masters, holding kung fu, practicing every day, have never fought once in actual combat, go to fight with others? It's not like you can only punch your face in the end.
Xiao Yong is no exception, and it takes a lot of practice and practice for him to extract these moves and integrate them into his own fighting system.
Listening to Xiao Yong's words, Zheng Tiequan fell into deep thought.
If it weren't for the dragon binding entanglement that Xiao Yong used before, he would definitely be furious!
But sometimes, some unpopular tricks can build an advantage.
"You fight normally first! If you want to try, you can practice two sets of actual combat today, and I will accompany you! ”
"I don't need you, it's no fun to beat you!" Xiao Yong rolled his eyes!
The sparring partner in the system space is Lao Zheng, and he is beating Lao Zheng now, which is holding a handle.
He knows all about any of Lao Zheng's moves
He just wanted to try those moves that he felt were usable, and how effective it was to fight others, so he deliberately practiced them in today's actual combat training.
Zheng Tiequan was furious when he heard this: "Stinky boy, don't you look down on people?" Do you want to live both? ”
"Huh!"
A minute later, Zheng Tiequan was carried to the edge of the field
In the process of Xiao Yong's preparation, the ticket sales channel was also officially opened.
This time, because it is a special event in China, Guan Huashan is ambitious and sets the competition venue at the Bird's Nest 100,000 Stadium!
However, it is said that it is a 100,000-person gymnasium, but the actual capacity is 910,000!
The average ticket price is 1,000 yuan, and the best position in the venue is 8,000 yuan per ticket!
At the beginning of online ticketing, it showed an extremely hot situation.
On the one hand, it is because between Alvarez and Xiao Yong is already full of gunpowder, and it has been fermenting on the Internet for a period of time.
On the other hand, people are very confident in Xiao Yong!
For example, Xiao Yong's style of play is so violent, the technique is all-round, and each game is no more than one round of players, which has never appeared in China before!
Even the official program "Fighting the World" did a special episode of Xiao Yong!
to introduce Xiao Yong's growth experience and technical characteristics.
However, they did not invite Xiao Yong himself, but only conducted an analysis on the side!
"We can see that Xiao Yong was born in wrestling and has won the national youth wrestling championship himself."
"And his striking skills are outstanding!"
"According to the performance of the competition and the evaluation of the players after the race, Xiao Yong's strength is rare among the yellow race, including his explosiveness, as we all know, Xiao Yong's 100-meter performance can even break into the ten-second mark, which shows how terrifying Xiao Yong's physical fitness is!"
The broadcast of Fighting World has made fans and audiences burst with confidence in Xiao Yong!
It is precisely because Xiao Yong feels that there is a high probability of winning that more people are willing to pay money to watch the game on site.
As soon as the tickets went live, the sales speed was very impressive!

It's late again! In the morning, my wife went out to play with the children, and no one told me to get up, so I slept until more than 11 o'clock
