After signing the contract, Xiao Yong looked at Tang Xiao and asked curiously: "When can I play in the game?"
He couldn't wait any longer.
Although ONE Championship is not as good as UFC in terms of overall level, it is also the number one MMA event in Asia.
Tang Xiao smiled and said: "It depends on the company's follow-up arrangements and whether anyone is willing to accept your competition. The contract we signed is a non-differentiated contract. You must first determine your competition level! Should you still participate in the lightweight class?
"
The level divisions of ONE Championship and UFC are different, and the weighing mode is also different.
In ONE Championship, there is no such model as dehydration before the competition. They will monitor the weight of the players within eight weeks before the competition, and perform weight testing every day during the competition week.
At the same time, dehydration and weight loss are not allowed, intravenous rehydration is prohibited, and urine water content tests must be passed. Players basically compete at their daily weight.
Weight categories are also divided differently.
Take the lightweight class as an example. The UFC lightweight class is 66-70 kilograms, of which 70 kilograms is the upper limit, which means that the weight cannot exceed 70 kilograms when weighing.
Of course, almost no player will compete with a weight of 70 kilograms. It is normal for anyone to be more than ten kilograms taller. They will lose weight before the game to control their weight on the weigh-in day.
But the lightweight category of ONE Championship is 70kg-77.1kg!
In other words, ONE's lightweight players must weigh more than 150 kilograms on a daily basis!
Xiao Yong nodded and said: "Let's participate in the lightweight competition!"
This was something he and Zheng Tiequan had discussed a long time ago. To compete in the ONE lightweight category, Xiao Yong, who currently weighs 148 pounds, still needs to gain weight.
At the very least, I need to gain another six pounds!
Fighters are all like this, and their weight must be as high as possible.
However, gaining weight is not just about eating fat and then being done with it. It requires scientific training to increase muscle!
Tang Xiao saw this and said with a smile: "Okay, after we go back, we will find a suitable match to arrange! You can also get to know the lightweight players yourself and contact them privately. If someone agrees, we will be more
It’s easier.”
Playing games is actually very difficult to arrange.
Especially newcomers, even if they enter the ONE Championship.
Every event and every weight class is ranked.
The higher the ranking, the stronger the player and the higher the appearance fee.
Everyone wants to fight higher-ranked opponents and newcomers. If you win, you won’t make any money, but if you lose, you will lose blood!
Of course, sometimes, no matter who you are, you have to play some games you don't want to play.
For example, if you can't contact a higher-ranked opponent, and you're short of money, it's not impossible to have a fight.
After all, money doesn't hurt.
Take Xiao Yong as an example, his guaranteed appearance fee is US$10,000!
This price may not seem high, but this is the price if you lose, and it is not the price if you win.
The specific amount depends on the on-site arrangements of the event organizer.
It may directly rise to 35,000 US dollars, which is possible. After winning, you may also receive bonuses such as bonuses.
For most ONE fighters, winning a match can lead to a comfortable period of time without any problems!
Therefore, whether it is a ONE fighter or a UFC fighter, the competition contract is signed on a per-game basis.
If you fight well and win, you will have a chance!
For Xiao Yong, if he wins all three games, he will definitely get a contract extension.
Two wins and one loss, if the opponent is of good quality and Xiao Yong performs well on the field, there is a high probability that he will get a contract extension.
With one win and two losses, the probability of getting a contract extension is relatively low.
After all, the opponent you fight at the beginning won't be too strong. If you can't win, it means your potential is limited.
We need to refer to some off-site factors, such as whether it has commercial value, and so on.
If you lose all three battles, then go home.
After coming out of the hotel, Xiao Yong and Zheng Tiequan returned to school.
After returning to school, Xiao Yong posted an audio on his social platform.
The audio was the recording when Liu Jinfeng went to find Xiao Yong. Xiao Yong happened to be playing with his mobile phone at the time, so he started recording directly!
The audio is not long, only a few sentences, but it quickly attracted people's attention after it was released!
"I am Liu Jinlong's sister and also his manager. My name is Liu Jinfeng. I want to talk to you!"
"If you lose to Golden Dragon in the next game, we will give you an extra five hundred thousand!"
"Xiao Yong, let me tell you now, if you give up this game, we will give you 800,000, and we will introduce other games to you later."
"If you really don't know how to praise me, I guarantee you that after this competition, not many domestic competitions will use you!"
Arrogant words, dirty deals.
Anyone who listens to it will feel uncomfortable.
The two characters Xiao Yong replied with were particularly refreshing.
After the audio was released, Xiao Yong wrote in the caption: "I don't know if I will be wanted in other events, but let me announce something. I have officially joined ONE Championship. The date of the competition has not yet been decided, but someone will definitely want me. I hope
Please support me in the future!”
No one expected that Xiao Yong would suddenly reveal such a big thing!
"Is it so profitable to do fake boxing? I don't remember that the winner of this competition doesn't even get 800,000 yuan in prize money."
"If you are famous enough, you can take on business activities!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's really amazing, so that's how it is."
"You are worthy of being the pillar of the world, awesome!"
Once the audio of Xiao Yong being bribed to perform fake punches was exposed, it immediately caused an uproar.
At this time, another audience member revealed the reason why Zheng Tiequan had a conflict with the referee during Xiao Yong's game that day.
"I was sitting on the sidelines that day. The amount of Vaseline smeared on Xiao Yong's face was much less than in the first game. Then his coach was not happy and started arguing with the referee. I could see clearly that Liu Jinlong on the opposite side had a face.
The picture above shows a thick layer!”
"At the time, I didn't understand why the coach was so excited. Later, when I went home and checked, I found out what was going on..."
In this Internet age, information spreads extremely fast.
After it spread, it immediately caused netizens to dig deeper.
Some details are starting to be noticed too!
"Look at Liu Jinlong's previous games, he always appeared last, but in this game, he was the first to appear."
"And if you look at it again, when he kicked Chen Ji, his kick was completely weak and weak!"
"Yes, there was only five minutes between Xiao Yong's second game and his third game! But if you look at the game three days later, there was a full half-hour gap!"
"It's such nonsense. It's clear that the program team and Liu Jinlong are targeting Xiao Yong together!"
"But it's useless. Strength is strength! Xiao Yong still won, and he won easily."
"Look at Xiao Yong's last game, the fight was obviously higher than the previous two. I didn't know why at the time, but looking at it now, it turns out he was afraid of being hit in the face!"
Angry netizens rushed to the program's official website to leave messages of abuse.
In competitive sports, fraud is the biggest disgusting thing!
However, among them, there are also a few people with incorrect views who criticize Xiao Yong on the Internet!
"Haha, let me tell you, he just doesn't understand the world. Why don't you accept the money well? If he goes to fight in the ONE Championship, he may not be able to achieve results! Besides, he has participated in this game, so he has to be a little grateful.
You really want to expose the black stuff like this, have you considered the program team?"
This guy's remarks immediately aroused backlash.
"When did innocence become a sin? It's because there are too many frauds, so many capable players are unwilling to play in domestic competitions!"
"No, everyone is cheating, and when they go out for a fight, they are beaten into pieces. How fun is that?"
"Xiao Yong participated in the competition, boxing based on his own ability, and was targeted. Why should he be grateful to the show crew? It's like you work for a boss, and the boss bullies you, deducts your salary, and makes you work overtime without pay, and you still have to pay the boss
Kneel down and kowtow?"
"This man has been kneeling for too long."
After Xiao Yong posted it, he didn't read it any more. He was free to comment on the right and wrong.
He began to study wholeheartedly.
But just before the final exam, news came out!
Liu Jinlong announced his retirement amidst the abuse from netizens. The Jianghu Style program team was criticized by name, made corrections, and temporarily stopped broadcasting.
In fact, Xiao Yong felt very complicated after hearing the news.
In fact, he also knows that the domestic fighting environment is not good, but if the general environment is not good, he still has to worry about doing events.
Engaging in some crooked ways will only make the entire industry worse and worse.
In the end, it even broke!
Like a certain foot!
Is the money good? Of course it is!
But it would be terrible to throw away the most basic bottom line and focus on money.
After the exam, the school will be on holiday.
Xiao Yong is also going to Kyoto to prepare for shooting with the team.
The day before they parted, Xiao Yong transformed into a beer man and had a great night of fun with Yang Lele at the Unlimited Wine Barrel E.
This is actually rare for Xiao Yong.
Overall, he is quite self-disciplined.
But after all, we have to separate, and it is inevitable to be reluctant to part.
The next day, Xiao Yong put Yang Lele and Han Jiayi into the car respectively and arrived at the airport.
Bai Yiyi was already waiting there and said with a smile: "This time I go to Kyoto, the company will let me follow..."
Gao Tianmei still wanted Bai Yiyi to seize the opportunity to get in touch with these big names.
After all, for their profession, connections are sometimes even more important than strength.
Even if they can't make friends in the end, it can still be regarded as a kind of training for Bai Yiyi.
It's still the familiar first class cabin...
When they arrived in Kyoto, the crew sent a car directly to pick them up and took them to a hotel near the film and television base.
Here, Xiao Yong met director Liu Changhe.
"Xiao Xiao, our team has arranged two rooms for you and your agent. You can go and see if you are used to it. We will start shooting the day after tomorrow. How are you preparing for your scene?
?”
"No problem! Don't worry, director." Xiao Yong said seriously.
He felt that during this period he was still working very hard to memorize lines, read scripts, and figure out the characters.
In addition, with his angry acting skills, Xiao Yong is still very confident.
However...on the first day of filming, something went wrong!
Xiao Yong dressed up in ancient costume, flying fish suit, and embroidered spring knife!
The appearance and temperament are very eye-catching!
Liu Changhe was very satisfied.
But when I shot the first scene, I shot more than a dozen scenes in a row, but it still failed.
Finally, Xiao Yong was called to his eyes by Liu Changhe, and he sighed: "Xiao Yong, your lines are good, your performance is pretty good, and your expressions are pretty good, but I have some problems with your body!"
Xiao Yong was stunned and asked in confusion: "Physical problem? What does it mean?"
Liu Changhe thought for a while and said: "You know Huaqiang? The actor who played Huaqiang back then, no matter whether he walked, lit cigarettes, looked at people, talked or chatted, his every action was very close to the character. You are now
I have a very awkward feeling. This character is the commander of Jin Yiwei, and he can be regarded as a powerful one. Your current body movements always feel a bit inconsistent. You must pay attention to this character. There are internal contradictions. He is fierce and rises from the bottom.
The character, in the end, has all the power. You have to figure out his movements from the body movements. In this way, I won’t shoot your scene for today. You can read the script carefully and think about it again!"
After all, Xiao Yong has never really acted in film and television, and the scenes he filmed before were all ordinary people.
Never encountered such a problem.
Liu Changhe also knew very well that this was the disadvantage of using amateurs.
Many things are indeed not as professional as those of actors with a professional background.
He can only hope that Xiao Yong can understand it as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be much more troublesome to shoot. He may have to explain each action in detail and have Xiao Yong practice it repeatedly.
Xiao Yong had no choice but to come to the side. Bai Yiyi had been watching Xiao Yong's shooting. When she saw him coming, she quickly smiled and reassured: "It's okay, let's think about it again! It will definitely be okay."
Xiao Yong frowned and looked at the others acting.
Sometimes one shot is taken, and sometimes one shot needs to be shot many times.
After watching for a while, Xiao Yong was also there, trying to change and adjust his walking posture.
This character climbs up from the bottom and eventually reaches a high position.
Judging from the whole play, he is a stubborn, suspicious and ruthless character.
But after mastering the actual power of the Jin Yiwei, he becomes a powerful minister with power over the government and the public!
As the number one boss and villain of this show, the setting is like this.
Then, you have to walk away from the feeling of being like a dragon and a tiger.
Xiao Yong tried his best to find some powerful ministers and officials who had been played by outstanding actors from his memories.
Thinking about their appearance, I started to imitate and train.
In fact, it is normal for newcomers to imitate this thing. To put it bluntly, you don’t know how to do it yourself. If you don’t imitate, do you still want to start a sect?
Xiao Yong wore a Feiyu suit and carried an embroidered spring knife. He and Bai Yiyi found a deserted place and started practicing.
Bai Yiyi used her mobile phone to help him take pictures and pointed out some shortcomings at the same time.
Xiao Yong watched the video again, and then practiced slowly according to his shortcomings.
Gradually, Xiao Yong also added some of his own understanding, such as, never leaving the knife...
Because this character is suspicious and cruel, and may even draw a knife to kill at any time.
I have to say that Xiao Yong himself is still somewhat savvy.
After a day of practice, every move was completely different.
Xiao Yong tried his best to cut down on some of his usual small movements. As a result, the character appeared to be extremely capable!
Xiao Yong gradually became addicted to this feeling of merging with the character.
In the past, he mainly understood acting as simply controlling facial expressions, but now he discovered that the actor itself is actually a whole, including movements, which must be synchronized with expressions.
Body movements are very important!
Just like when it comes to thugs in suits, that one in the movie is a complete interpretation of body movements.
But it left a very deep impression.
Including many impressive characters, all with excellent physical performance effects!
Even that night, in the dream space, Xiao Yong deliberately set aside another two hours to practice.
The effect is naturally there.
When filming took place the next day, Xiao Yong's body movements were completely recognized by Liu Changhe.
He is also very satisfied with Xiao Yong's attitude!
When you are a director, it is actually not scary if your actors' acting skills are not up to standard and you encounter shooting problems. What is scary is that you still don't correct them when you encounter problems.
No matter what is said here, it will fall on deaf ears over there.
Then, when filming the audition scene again, Xiao Yong gave everyone a big surprise!
On the set, Brother Jie looked at Xiao Yong and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous for a moment. Just act as you did during the audition that day. There will be absolutely no problem! Let me tell you, I didn't come from a professional background. When I was acting, I took over 100 pictures in one scene."
Many times, it’s no big deal!”
This is the first scene between the two of them.
He has been in the industry for many years and knows very well that young actors sometimes lose control of their expressions when they are nervous.
So he still comforted Xiao Yong enthusiastically.
Xiao Yong nodded, took a deep breath, and stood up!
"start!"
Following Liu Changhe's order, Xiao Yong slowly turned around.
Wearing the Feiyu suit, Xiao Yong's power is much stronger than on the day of the audition!
His right hand was always on the knife handle!
The moment his face is reflected in the camera.
Liu Changhe was shocked!
At this time, Xiao Yong's feeling of anger was clearly conveyed to his heart.
I'm obviously much better than when I first acted!
If it was above the standard on the day of the audition, it is amazing today!
Obviously that fierce face didn't seem to have changed much, but it just let everyone know that he was very angry!
Micro expression management!
This can only be felt by some veteran actors!
Liu Changhe never expected that Xiao Yong could do so well.
And compared to that day, Xiao Yong's acting skills are obviously more layered!
Brother Jie, who plays opposite Xiao Yong, was instantly brought into emotion.
A good actor can lead the other person in the play.
The sharpness and anger in Xiao Yong's eyes made Brother Jie clearly feel that he was being targeted by a wild beast.
He lowered his head unconsciously!
At this time, the camera showed Xiao Yong's hand holding the knife.
Very stable!
But very hard!
The slightly white fingertips mean that Xiao Yong may draw the knife at any time!
"Today I will explain to you that Hai Rui must die. I will only give you three days. If you can bring him back, I will forget about it. If you can't, I will definitely kill your whole family!"
"You love your daughter very much, right? You love your wife very much, right? Then go and bring Hai Rui's heads back, otherwise, their heads will be hung on the city wall!"
The entire set was filled with Xiao Yong's sinister voice.
Everyone held their breath. Xiao Yong's acting skills in this section were to completely bring the character into the role, and the anger felt by his subordinates' disobedience was vividly expressed. As for the final order, he must use the power in his hands to suppress his subordinates.
It's against your conscience!
