"Hey, Mr. Don King, hello." Philip's phone was connected.

"Hey, Rogge, you can call me Don."

"Mr. Don King, is there anything wrong with you?"

Don Kim was a little annoyed, was this going to be on business with him?

But he had no choice but to say: "Oh, since that's the case, then let's stop saying polite words and go straight to the real thing."

Mr. Philip, you give me Tekken's first forced title defense challenge, and I can make you a lot of money, a lot of money.

Remember, it's you who make a lot of money, yourself. You won't refuse tens of millions of dollars, I'll make you one of the promoters of this boxing match, you don't have to do anything, you don't need to pay a dollar for the most money, I'm responsible for all the investments, and you can get tens of millions of dollars for nothing. ”

"Ten million?"

A trace of disdain flashed in Philip's eyes, in the last Iron Fist boxing challenge, he took one percent of Iron Fist's income, and it was almost 10 million, who is this old thing fooling?

As if sensing that Philip had no interest in his proposal, Don King immediately raised the conditions, and directly doubled, and said: "Two million dollars, as long as you give me the right to promote, I will let you earn two million dollars in a boxing match." ”

Philip was still disdainful in his eyes, and he had no interest in Don King's proposal.

He was certainly interested in making $20 million a game, but only if he couldn't offend Iron Fist, who was not Tyson's idiot, and with Iron Fist's shrewdness and character, he would definitely kick him away.

Iron Fist does not rule out a forced title defense battle with Michael Tyson, but the condition is that Tyson changes his agent first, as for the 20 million US dollars, Bob Arum has promised him to take him into the industry, and he can also profit from it, and it is just and bright, and it does not harm the interests of Iron Fist.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kim, I've already handed over the promotion rights to Mr. Bob Arum, this is the meaning of Iron Fist." Philip said.

"What?"

Tang Jin was furious and shouted: "I am the best promoter in this industry, if you don't cooperate with me, I will make it difficult for you to move an inch in this industry in the future." ”

Philip said coldly: "I think you think too much, Mr. Don King, do you think that Iron Fist is a small role?"

If you prevent Iron Fist from developing in the boxing world, you will not only offend us, but also offend the four major boxing organizations, offend the dozens of world's top brands behind Iron Fist, and also offend those TV broadcasters, those gambling companies all over the world, and the consequences of offending them, what will happen to you, you can think for yourself.

Besides, we are not easy to mess with, Iron Fist has a very high status in the United States, and he knows a lot of barristers, billionaires, and members of Congress, and the president personally invites him to visit the White House, and they even have personal connections, which you can't touch either.

Don't think that you have a very high status in this country, that's just your delusion, I promise, if you dare to provoke us, we will let you not eat and walk around, and you may end up with anything. ”

"You?" Don Kim knot.

"Smack!"

Philip hung up the phone over there.

"Falk oil!"

Tang Jin was so angry that he dropped the phone.

But he really can't have the mind to deal with Zhou Quan and Philip, not to mention the rest, just the dozens of top world-class brands behind the iron fist can make him die in a different way.

……

On the morning of the 8th, the league announced the results of the first-week All-Star vote.

Some media have predicted that Zhou Quan will become the All-Star vote king for the second year in a row, and the results of the first week of voting prove that these media are right.

Zhou received 850,000 votes in his first week, up from 510,000 in the first week of last year.

Jordan had 350,000 votes in the first week, 450,000 votes in the first week of last year, and lost the finals last year, and his popularity dropped a lot, dropping 100,000 votes in a week.

"Iron Fist received a total of 1.95 million votes last year, and it is inevitable to break 2 million this year, and it is very likely to break the 3 million mark, which will be the best proof of the NBA ball market." The Seattle Post.

"No one can deny the popularity of Iron Fist, and the crossover king and world heavyweight title has blessed his popularity too much." New york times.

"If overseas telephone voting is opened, the number of votes of Iron Fist is likely to directly exceed 100 million." Detroit Worker Daily.

……

On the 9th, the SuperSonics defeated the Bucks away from home, with a 28-4 record, and then rushed to Chicago overnight.

The lineup was seriously crippled, and Zhou Quan broke out again, hitting 52 points, 11 assists, 6 steals and 2 blocks, which is the most critical factor for the current superSonics team to win consecutive victories.

"The fifth 50+ of the season, three consecutive 50+ games, Iron Fist is a well-deserved active first." The Seattle Times.

"With an average of 40+ iron fists per game, unlimited attack power, such a person, you can't help but regard him as the first person in active service." Los Angeles Daily News.

As the league's most popular superstar at the moment, Zhou Quan was still sleeping in a hotel in Chicago when the media hype about him was hot.

Next up for the SuperSonics will take on the Bulls back-to-back, with the game being broadcast live across the United States on ABC TV and narrated by Bill Wharton.

He also traveled to Chicago and was interviewed live on Chicago TV News at the airport, highlighting Zhou's recent performances.

"Obviously, whether it's personal reasons or injury problems, Iron Fist is making a run for the scoring title this season.

If successful, he will be only the second person in league history to win both the assist and scoring titles in a single season.

And with SuperSonic's current record and Iron Fist's position in the official MVP rankings, he has a good chance of winning the regular season MVP. And with his defensive performance, he is also very likely to win DPOY again.

I mean, he's very likely to make history this year. ”

"So Beal, do you think Iron Fist has surpassed Michael Jordan to become the first active player in the NBA?" The journalist asked.

Bill Wharton said very directly: "Yes, I think Iron Fist has indeed surpassed Michael Jordan in terms of overall strength, including influence.

Jordan is currently averaging 30.1 points per game, which is great, but Tekken is averaging 40+ points per game. 40+, which has surpassed Jordan's average of 37.1 points per game in his peak season.

Of course, the reason why Iron Fist is so offensive is because the team has a very serious injury, and when the squad recovers, his average points per game stats will definitely drop, and his teammates will share a lot of shots.

But no matter what, I just think he's the first person on active duty. ”

"But now there is a lot of media that believes that the Flyer and Tekken are still competing for the position of the active number one." The reporter said.

Bill Wharton laughed, "Yes, I saw that. But I would say that this kind of argument is likely to be less and less heard in the future, because Tekken is at its peak, and the Flyers are coming down from the top. ”

"Humph!"

Jordan happened to see the news and was very upset with Bill Walton's words.

With the blessing of strong self-confidence and strong competitiveness, he is dissatisfied with Zhou Quan in his heart, not with a hard mouth, he really thinks that he is still stronger than Zhou Quan and more dominant than Zhou Quan.

If Zhou Quan hears Jordan's heart at this time, he will probably tell him, Michael Jordan, it's just your delusion.

Zhou Quan only got up at noon, rested in Miami for two or three days, and had a very good recovery in physical fitness, although he had just beaten the Bucks last night, he slept well last night, his physical fitness has recovered, and he feels very good.

Sleep Dangong did have some progress compared to last year, which improved his sleep quality and made him perform better on the court.

However, the teammates are not very good, they have played five away games in a row, flying in the sky for a long time in a row, they have not slept well, and their physical fitness has begun to have problems.

The previous few important rotation players, although they have reduced their playing time in these two games, have been very consumed before and are now very tired.

In the evening, the supersonic challenged the Bulls back-to-back.

Previously, the Bulls lost to Mosaic again, 26-5, and the SuperSonics were 28-4, so they still ranked first in the SuperSonics league.

Phil Jackson's tactics are very clear, that is, to cover Zhou Quan with all his might, whether it is on the outside or in the paint area, he will carry out multi-person packing, because he knows that the state of the rest of the supersonic will definitely not be good.

Under this extreme bag, the teammates were not in good shape, and it was useless for Zhou Quan to be in good shape, and the supersonic finally lost by 17 points and ended the winning streak.

The Bulls are 27-5 and the SuperSonics are 28-5, and with one more game for the SuperSonics, they are half a win worse than the Bulls, and they are still the first in the league.

Zhou Quan scored 21 points, shooting only 33.3% from the field, the pinch shot was too strong, there were 4 turnovers, and only 8 assists, the Bulls' outside defense was too strong, and many open teammates failed to shoot.

But on the defensive end, he delivered 8 steals in the fourth quarter, and he was in very good shape, stealing Jordan as many as 4 times in the whole game, and only scored 22 points in defense of Jordan, and the shooting rate was only 35.6%, and Jordan made 6 turnovers under the single defense.

After the game, Bill Wharton said with a smile: "One win and one loss, the SuperSonics played like this with a seriously crippled lineup, which is already very telling that the Bulls who have strengthened the center are not as strong as they seem, and it is not so easy for the Bulls to win the championship this year." ”

Partner Lewis Williams said: "The shooting rate of the SuperSonics team is only 38.6%, and the Bulls are 44.4%. ”

"Iron Fist's 8 steals, one in and one out, is 16 shots, enough for the bull to drink a pot." Bill Wharton laughed.

"Haha......"

Williams burst out laughing.

Bill Wharton smiled: "It's a pity, Iron Fist is actually in very good shape tonight, and he actually lost 8 steals." ”

"Phil Jackson played the extreme tactics that the Pistons used to play against Jordan and used it against Iron Fist, and he succeeded," Williams said. I think if we meet in the finals in the future, there's a good chance he'll do it again. ”

With a 28-5 record, the SuperSonics returned to Seattle the next day, ending a two-week road trip.

Zeng Li's life at home is quite fulfilling, half of the time is spent learning English with the teacher, and the rest of the time is spent researching and analyzing the results of street surveys conducted by survey companies.

Zhou Quan plans to open a coffee shop for her, and now Starbucks is developing very well, but the grade is a little lower, Zhou Quan thinks that he can raise the grade and open a very exquisite high-end coffee shop.

There are also many such coffee shops in the United States, which are aimed at the elite and middle class, and if they are doing well, they can also open chain stores.

When he got home in the afternoon, Zhou Quan took Zeng Li, who studied the path of yin and yang cultivation for two hours, and then came to the dock and asked the maid to send dinner there to eat.

"I'm X!"

Sitting in the café, Zhou Quan's mobile phone fell on the transparent glass floor, and when he went to pick it up, he was startled by what was under the glass floor.

"Husband, there's someone in the water!"

Zeng Li, who had just come in, came over to take a look, and was also startled, and took several steps back.

It turned out that under the glass floor, a guy wearing diving equipment was secretly filming with a camera.

"Bastard, get out!"

Zhou Quan yelled at the other party, and thought that the opponent would definitely not hear it, his floor was multi-layered, nine centimeters thick, and pointed outward.

The man politely made an OK gesture and swam out.

"Damn!"

This must be the first time, otherwise the media would have broken the news a long time ago, and Zhou Quan is not worried about the exposure of his private life.

He came outside and shouted at the security guards outside, "Jones, someone is secretly filming underwater, go get him up." ”

"What?"

Jones is very angry, damn paparazzi, isn't this serving his job?

When he ran over, the reporter had already swam to the dock, a white man in his twenties, who had been wrung out of the water by his own hands.

"Damn it, give it to me!"

directly snatched the reporter's camera, pulled out the film and exposed it directly, but the reporter didn't struggle, anyway, he didn't shoot anything, and he was afraid of being beaten, so he was very cooperative.

"Which media's? Tell me it's good for you. Zhou Quan came over and squatted next to him, clenched his fists and asked.

"Iron Fist, don't be impulsive, I, I, I'm a reporter for the Chicago Sports Newspaper."

The reporter was a little frustrated, he was very excited when he thought of this candid shooting method, but he didn't expect to be discovered for the first time.

"What's it called?"

"Path Hans."

"You're a Jordan fan, right?"

"Oh yes."

"Tell me, did Michael Jordan get you here, or his agent, David Falck?" Zhou Quan asked coldly.

"NONO, I'M HERE ON MY OWN, I'M A JOURNALIST, YOU CAN'T ASSOCIATE THIS WITH MICHAEL, IT'S NONE OF HIS BUSINESS." The reporter said hurriedly.

"Sir, these Chicago media must want to hack you, the dock belongs to your private possession and residence, he has violated your privacy in your personal private life, you can hand him over to the police." Jones said.

"NONO, LET ME GO, I PROMISE YOU WON'T COME." Hans shouted hurriedly.

"Call the police."

Zhou Quan dropped a sentence and left.

In the United States, the protection of the privacy of the private life of a sports and entertainment star, celebrity, etc., is very good, and it is definitely illegal to shoot without permission.

This reporter will definitely have to change careers in the future, and if you become a black reporter, the black income will be easily found by the tax bureau.
