Chapter 523
The two rounds in the morning have all been played, with Hong Kong's Yang Qingnong advancing and the other three players all from Singapore.
This made the Singaporean audience excited, but compared to the layman audience, the morale of the Singaporean martial arts community did not seem to be high.
If you think about it, it is understandable that the number of people from Hong Kong who come to Singapore to compete is only one-tenth or even one percent, but Singapore is almost overwhelmed, and even Cui Chengping, Tang Anrui, Chen Xizhen and many other martial arts masters who are not open have been invited by Nie Rongfei, president of the Singapore Guoshu Association, to compete, but in the end they failed to wipe out all the Hong Kong players outside the quarterfinals, but let one of them advance to the semi-finals, which is really a bit embarrassing.
Huo Dongjun was eliminated, which also means that all of Hong Yihai's projects in this competition are over, after lunch, Huo Dongjun did not stay to continue to watch the semi-finals of the gymnasium, but took Hong Yihai's people back to the hotel.
It was not back to the hotel where Li Jianqing and others stayed, but back to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel where Huo Dongjun stayed himself.
Waiting for the temporary butler Alfred to withdraw, Huo Dongjun sat on the sofa in the living room and looked at Ma Jiu, Da Chun, Lin Sandi, and Huo Dongjun's seven junior brothers who didn't even remember their names clearly.
No one knew what Huo Dongjun was thinking, and he didn't even speak casually, but sat in his seat, playing with the corners of his clothes with both hands, waiting for Huo Dongjun to speak.
After being silent for five minutes, Huo Dongjun looked at the seven junior disciples and said:
"I have had a lot of brothers, when the master's martial arts hall opened in Fumei Street, received about a dozen disciples who learned boxing with him, but then the master was defeated by Liu Zhansheng because of lameness, driven out of Wong Tai Sin Fumei Street, those apprentices were all dispersed, and then the master moved Hong Yihai to Dakan Village, and received six or seven teenagers from Dakan Village to teach boxing, but because of Xi Rong's illness, the senior brother and I were deceived into going to the Kowloon Walled City to boxing, and those guys also ran away, and now the master is bent on returning to his hometown to retire and hand over the martial arts hall to me, although the seven of you have not formally apprenticed, but everyone knows each other, there is always some affection, I have something to say now, even if you wait for me to finish scolding meIt's better to hit me than to embarrass me at the end. โ
One of the seven people named Yuan Zhiwei waited for Huo Dongjun to finish saying this and asked, "Brother Jun, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, are you afraid that we will run away if there is something going on in the martial arts hall before we learn?"
Huo Dongjun did not deny it, and nodded to Yuan Zhiwei: " You all know what happened two days ago, I quarreled with Qiu Jianping to start, this matter will not be so simple to be covered up by both sides, it will definitely be so troubled to tear your face, this competition is over, after returning to Hong Kong, I am afraid that the martial arts hall will not be quiet, and I am afraid that it is impossible to practice boxing as safely as before, so I advise you, if you don't want to get involved in these things, it is better to say it now, and after returning to Hong Kong, you will go to the martial arts hall to learn kung fu, so as not to be entangled in your heart, now you are a gentleman, and the brotherhood is still there, even if you no longer eat at the same table, you will be friends when you meet in the future, but if you are full of promises now, and only retreat and avoid when the incident happens, it is a villain, Although you don't have a formal apprenticeship, you don't need to abolish your kung fu according to the rules, but I am the owner of the Hongyihai Pavilion, and I should be beaten when I see a traitor. โ
In fact, Huo Dongjun has a good impression of these seven junior brothers, worship under his master, although the talent is not high, the martial arts are so-so, but the character is not bad, know how to look at people's eyes, know that Li Jianqing has a bad temper to be cautious, the harmony between the brothers and sisters, Hong Yihai Martial Arts Hall has always been small, but the atmosphere has always been lively, and Lele, these seven junior brothers account for a lot of factors.
After all, there are not many people who can stand the temper of their own master and have to endure the freaks of Crazy Jiu.
But Huo Dongjun felt that he had to say these words, because when he was in Dakan Village, Chen Zhiwei and Li Zhihong's junior disciples looked good on the surface, but when something really happened to the martial arts hall, they did not hesitate to leave Hong Yihai one by one.
No one is sure that there will be such an existence among these seven people now.
After listening to Huo Dongjun's words, the seven people, including Yuan Zhiwei, were a little silent, they all worshiped under the door of Hong Yihai Li Jianqing after Huo Dongjun and Mad Jiu won the gossip dragon head Qing at the Lion King Conference.
When he first apprenticed, he wanted to become a master like Huo Dongjun and Mad Jiu, smiling proudly on the cloud pile, but when he came to Hong Yihai to prepare to apprentice, this Master Li Jianqing gave everyone a slap in the face, which is also the reason why there were dozens of people who came to apprentice, and in the end there were only seven left.
If it is another martial arts hall and someone comes to apprentice, the master must encourage the apprentice to work hard and will definitely succeed, but Hong Yihai's Li Jianqing is telling the truth, and the first time he talks when he meets is:
"If you want to be like the two of them, win the lion dance championship, it's too late for you to practice martial arts, it's okay to practice boxing to keep fit, become a master, if you can persist for thirty or fifty years, maybe you can still have a relationship with the word master. โ
Anyone who hears this kind of words will be discouraged, so Yuan Zhiwei remembered that after listening to Li Jianqing's words, the dozens of people who came to Hong Yihai to learn boxing suddenly left more than half of them, and only seven people including himself remained.
The days that followed were spent in the morning and evening when they came to practice boxing, the seven people didn't know each other, but then because they had to practice martial arts together, so the feelings accumulated little by little, for them, Li Jianqing was not a good master, because most of Li Jianqing would let Da Chun take them to play routines, and rarely talked about martial arts for them.
They also know that without a formal apprenticeship, it is impossible to get Li Jianqing's personal teaching, they have heard from Da Chun's mouth how Li Jianqing taught those formal apprentices, in addition to Cai Li Buddha's own kung fu, there are also allusions to the origin of various sects, trick characteristics, quotations, medical skills, drum skills, lion and dragon dances and even classics of Chinese culture, etc., Liao Zhizong, Luo Zhiming, Huo Zhijun are all taught by Li Jianqing with such intentions.
However, although there is no good master, but they have a very good brother, that is Da Chun, Da Chun has a simple personality and is kind to others, these seven junior brothers, six of them have average family backgrounds, they are all rushing over to practice martial arts in the morning and evening while going to work, and the purpose of learning martial arts is also very simple, that is, I hope to learn some dragon and lion dances, and when some merchants invite Hong Yihai to dance dragons and lions, they can go out of the lion to earn some extra money, and dominate the rivers and lakes For them, it is better to be more down-to-earth than a few hundred Hong Kong dollars, so Da Chun never urges them to pay tuition, Huo Dongjun is often absent, Da Chun is equivalent to the senior brother of the martial arts hall, and urging other junior disciples to pay tuition on time is what he should do, but Da Chun has not done it once, if at the end of each month, if there is a junior brother who does not pay the tuition that day, he will not take the initiative to ask, but pay the money out of his own pocket and hand it over to Li Jianqing, and when the junior brother remembers to give the money to Da Chun the next day, Da Chun will not accept it again, and he tells them to leave the money to their families.
The breakfast martial arts hall will prepare, and no money will be charged for dinner, and the martial arts hall will also prepare them, and they will also not charge money for dinner, it is what Li Jianqing eats, what they eat.
Later, after Huo Dongjun came back, he arranged a part-time job for them, Dongyi Film Company made movies, and they were the first choice when they needed martial arts, and it was not a problem to pocket a few hundred Hong Kong dollars a day.
"Brother Jun, we haven't officially visited the teacher, you are the owner of the pavilion, and we will not be qualified to call you senior brother in the future, but as long as you don't drive me away, Hong Yihai has something to do, I will definitely not take half a step back. One of the seven was the first to speak.
As soon as he spoke, the others immediately chimed in.
"You have to think about it, there may be a lot of people who come to the gym to make trouble, and there is a possibility of injury. Huo Dongjun continued.
Yuan Zhiwei had already said: "Since you are still afraid of getting hurt when you practice boxing, as long as others don't come to Hong Yihai to make trouble, we will definitely not go out to make trouble, but if someone comes to Hong Yihai to kick the gym, then we must also fight hard with him." โ
Huo Dongjun nodded with relief.
After the others were quiet, he said slowly: "You don't need to do anything, as long as you come to fight on time every day as before, someone will come to make trouble, there is Da Chun in the martial arts hall, there is me, and Brother Jun." โ
"Brother Jiu, what you said I was like waste wood. Yuan Zhiwei and Mad Jiu were slightly more familiar than the others, and said with a smile.
"After two hours of horse walking, the ghost cries wolf, are you waiting for me to praise you?" said Crazy Jiu who reached out and knocked Yuan Zhiwei's head.
Huo Dongjun said: "After I return to Hong Kong to send my master, I will leave for a few days, during this time I am away, the affairs of the martial arts hall are all decided by the third sister, what the third sister says, can you do it?"
"Yes. Several of them reassured.
"I said at the beginning that sooner or later, I would let Hong Kong know that there is a martial arts hall named Hong Yihai. Huo Dongjun said to the few people in front of him: "You are the same, sooner or later someone will remember your name, believe me." โ
Lei Zhenhuan to carry forward Chinese martial arts, the most important step is to promote Chinese martial arts as a regular competition in Asia for the Asian Games, Hong Kong now does not have a special college martial arts major, it is conceivable that at the beginning of the next Asian Games, Hong Kong to participate in the Asian Games martial arts players, must be the young disciples of each martial arts hall to participate, their own seven junior disciples may not be high, but the performance of the routine is enough, as long as you work hard, the routine is beautiful, let Lei Zhenhuan take one or two of them to see the Asian Games is not impossibleใ
But these words can't be said to the people in front of him now, after Huo Dongjun finished speaking, he asked Da Chun to take a few people to go to the spa, and the cost was recorded on his bill.
The only people left in the room were Mad Jiu and Lin Sandi, who looked at a collection in the living room, which was the British sculptor Gormley's "Flat Tone", six notes of various sizes molded from metal, placed in the corner of the living room sofa.
Gently touching the note, Lu Jiu said to Huo Dongjun: "Brother Jun, what if I lose?"
