"System, redeem a quality and skill resource integration card." He quickly decided and started redeeming it immediately.
There are 2,000 points each, and now there are only 2,300 points left.
"Redeemed."
"I want to integrate...make a plan."
He secretly thought in his mind, choose one of the two, first choose the rebounding skill. This is more suitable to be combined with the back-up skill. If you have points next season, you can improve your throwing. Throwing is a skill facing the basket.
"Start integrating."
Soon, the integration was completed, and the system integrated all his relevant technical resources, ending low post shooting, low post pace, rebounding and other techniques, and even combined shooting techniques to form a new rebounding technology.
His hitting has become his second exclusive skill after the hook, reaching level 95.
At the same time, his low-post close-range attack has been improved from level 90 to level 91, and his most important offensive attack at the basket has been improved from level 98 to level 99. His dominance under the basket has further improved and is almost reaching level 100.
In addition, the improvement in rebounding has allowed his mid-range attack to increase from level 73 to level 80 in one go.
"Holy shit, can my shot be shot outside the paint?"
He was a little surprised, but the 80-level rebounding really made him take shots outside the paint area, and he was not willing to do so. The hit rate was too low, so he had no choice but to go in and score the ball.
When the time comes, he will consider taking action in those positions.
"System, why can't I break 100 points in the game?" He was a little annoyed because the goal was not achieved.
"Host, any offensive technique is related to basic physical qualities such as balance ability. When you perform technical movements, stability and continuity will be affected. This is determined by talent." The system explained.
He is just complaining, not that he cannot understand. This is already good. Now two skills have reached level 95, and his low-post offensive ability and dominance at the basket have been enhanced.
His plan to break through to 100 failed, and he can only hope that the plum blossom pile footwork will help him achieve breakthroughs in the future.
He doesn't plan to use the remaining 2,300 points for the time being, in case he needs to redeem a training card or something, or use it when practicing plum blossom piles, so as not to run out of points again.
At this time, his domestic mobile phone suddenly received an international long-distance call.
When a foreign caller called his domestic mobile phone, he thought it was Hawksman or the Suns contacting him, but he didn't recognize the number, which was a bit strange.
"Hello, I'm Lao K, who are you?"
"Old K, it's me, Cheng Long."
"Hey, Brother Cheng, how come you have my domestic mobile phone number?" he asked in surprise.
"I got it from CAA. You know I signed CAA. By the way, old K, are you in the capital now?"
"Yes, I just came back from Japan today. Are you still in the United States?"
"No, I returned to Xiangcheng today and am still at the airport."
"How's it going? Is the box office good?"
"Ha ha……"
When it came to the box office, Cheng Long became excited and shouted: "The box office in the first week came out, 12 million, haha, no more rush."
"Congratulations, it should be no problem if the box office in the red zone reaches 40 million." Lao Wang made an estimate based on the first week's box office.
"The number at New Line is probably the same, haha!" Cheng Long laughed.
"Brother Cheng, it seems that you are going to be famous in Hollywood. No, you are already famous." Lao Wang said with a smile.
"Not yet. When I am half as popular as you in the United States, I will be satisfied. You see, you are not even in the United States, but the media over there are still getting news about you. If you go to Japan, a bunch of American reporters will follow you.
In the past, when I returned to Xiangcheng, there was no one there." Cheng Long said enviously.
"Haha, isn't this just your beginning? If you make a few more blockbusters, you will definitely become famous in Hollywood." Lao Wang said with a smile.
"I hope I hope."
When Cheng Long said this, he suddenly asked: "Old K, didn't you say that when you return to China, you will preside over the opening of your Fengshen Street? I'll come over to join in the fun."
"Then why are you so embarrassed?"
He was really embarrassed to ask Cheng Long to come, because he attended the premiere of the red zone, and CAA received a million US dollars in appearance fees from the distributor New Line Cinema. If Cheng Long came, he would definitely have to pay for the air ticket.
"Yes, yes. Didn't I talk to Miss Yu last time? The Family Class is cooperating with K Martial Arts School to set up a martial arts company in Hollywood. We just have a good time to talk about it this time." Cheng Long said with a smile.
"Okay, I won't be polite. It opens at nine o'clock the day after tomorrow. You book your flight and let me know the time. I will pick you up at the airport."
Since everyone is talking about this, I definitely can't refuse. At most, I can just return the favor in the future.
"Okay, I'll invite a few friends over tomorrow and call you again," Cheng Long said.
The two hung up the phone, Lao Wang continued to think about his affairs, and Cheng Long started to make appointments.
The Red Zone is considered a success. With a production fee of 8 million US dollars, the box office in Hollywood alone can reach at least more than 30 million US dollars. With the global box office, it is estimated to reach 90 million US dollars. If you are lucky, it may exceed 100 million US dollars.
, with investment and box office ratio reaching 1:10, he will definitely become an instant hit in Hollywood this time.
Next, he plans to go all out to enter Hollywood. The market in Xiangcheng will be temporarily left to Li Lianjie and Zhou Xingxing.
These two guys have become quite powerful in the past few years. Zhou Xingxing started to work hard in 1992, and then Li Lianjie's Once Upon a Time series. His few movies in the past two years have been somewhat unbearable.
But this time in the United States, he truly experienced the influence of a sports superstar. Especially the opening of the K-Martial Arts Gym in Los Angeles greatly stimulated him, so he hopes to continue to be good friends with K.
Since I am going to support him this time, I must invite a few big names to go there, otherwise I will not be able to stand out in front of Lao K at all, which will be very embarrassing.
"Brother Bao, are you free tomorrow?"
Speaking of personal relationships, of course it was the Seven Little Fortunes. He hung up the phone to Hong Jinbao.
"What do you want to talk about first? I'll know if I'm free or not." Hong Jinbao said without any politeness.
"Does Lao K know?" he asked.
"14k, are they causing trouble for you?" Hong Jinbao reacted immediately and his head started to hurt.
Cheng Long was startled, and quickly said: "No, it's Lao K, the United States, no, it's the Mainland, eh, he's a basketball player in the United States, nicknamed Lao K. He's from the Mainland, he's very famous in the United States, and he's very influential.
Da, he will open in a street in the capital tomorrow. I will go over to attend the opening ceremony. Brother Bao, please collect the heads for me."
"Basketball player? A street?"
Hong Jinbao was confused and had no idea what Cheng Long was talking about.
"Oh, Brother Bao, let's put it this way, I will invite him to appear at my premiere in Hollywood, and the appearance fee will be one million US dollars." Cheng Long shouted.
"What?"
Hong Jinbao was originally lying on the sofa watching TV, but this time he jumped up, frightening his sons and wives.
Cheng Long said a few more words, and Hong Jinbao finally understood what was going on, and said in surprise: "I didn't expect a basketball player to be so capable? He's no worse than those in Europe who play football. By the way,
Aaron, if you give him a million dollars, how much will he give you this time? What about me, how much will he give me?"
Cheng Long's old face turned red. I took the initiative to come over to support you. Why are you asking me for money? Will raising money hurt our feelings?
He immediately changed the subject and explained: "That's right, he has a martial arts gym in the United States called K Martial Arts Gym. Let me tell you, Brother Bao, you didn't see his show. Last time the Los Angeles branch opened
, half of Hollywood’s top stars came, hundreds of wealthy businessmen came, and a group of Korean martial artists who opened a martial arts gym in Los Angeles wanted to kick his gym, but he asked the police to arrest him, and they haven’t been released yet.”
"So sharp?" Hong Jinbao said in surprise.
"He brought hundreds of brothers from his hometown of Cangzhou to the United States. All members of the same family are martial arts masters, and there are also a group of brothers who have fought in the war. I heard that they are still transferring people. I can't see thousands of people. He
The martial arts gym cannot be opened in the United States." Cheng Long shouted.
"A family has hundreds of brothers? A martial arts school needs thousands of martial arts masters?" Hong Jinbao couldn't help but gasped.
No matter how Cheng Long explained the status and influence of the American super sports superstar, he could not understand it because he had no understanding of it at all. However, the huge scale of the K-Martial Arts Gym gave him a great shock.
It's just that he didn't know that most of the martial arts masters in K martial arts gym were working as masseurs, not martial arts masters, and Cheng Long didn't make it clear.
But this is enough. If you have the opportunity to make friends with such a person, of course you will go, but he joked: "Aaron, there is no appearance fee, so you have to pay for the carriage and horse fees, right?"
"What's mine is mine."
Cheng Long secured Hong Jinbao and made an appointment with Yuan Biao. Yuan Biao was very talkative and agreed directly.
After thinking about it, he made an appointment with Mei Yanfang, who was going to the United States with him this time. Mei Yanfang agreed without any hesitation.
Suddenly he thought of Lao Wang's girlfriend Yu Feihong. This time he was really planning to have a good talk with her and open a martial arts agency in Hollywood together. While chatting, he remembered that Yu Feihong said that she had filmed Liu Furong's movie.
.
"Brother Cheng Long, why are you calling me when you have time? I haven't congratulated you yet. I wish you a box office of over 100 million in Hollywood and become a big success."
The call was quickly connected, and Liu Furong's voice sounded, sounding very tired.
"Hua Zai, how are you doing lately?" Cheng Long asked.
Although they are both superstars in Hong Kong's film industry, it is actually not easy for them to meet. It has been almost two years since he met Liu Furong.
"Hey, Brother Cheng Long, I'm okay, okay, thank you for your concern," Hua Zai said quickly.
"That's it. Are you free tomorrow? Do me a favor and go to the capital." Cheng Long said.
"Is that so? No problem. When will we leave?" Wa Jai was a little embarrassed, but he only hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Now he only gets a small salary every month, and all the income is used to pay off debts. In order to pay off debts, he is filming several movies at the same time. He is exhausted and has just returned home from a night show.
According to Cheng Long, this job was a favor, and there was definitely no money for it. Asking him to stop the show and go to the capital would waste at least a day, but he couldn't refuse, and it was rare for Cheng Long to ask him for help.
At this time, Cheng Long said again: "Do you remember Yu Feihong, the one who made your movie the year before last? The events in the capital this time are related to her."
"Remember, remember."
"Does her boyfriend, Mr. K, know?"
"Old K? I don't know about this. Is he a star from the Mainland?"
"No, Lao K is a superstar over there in the United States."
Andy was startled and asked quickly: "American?"
"No, a mainlander who plays basketball."
"No, brother, aren't you talking about American superstars?"
"Yes, a superstar basketball player."
Cheng Long explained it again and took the K martial arts gym out to talk about it. Only then did Wa Tsai understand a little bit and agreed.
However, like Hong Jinbao, he still didn't quite understand why Cheng Long wanted to make friends with a basketball player, because he didn't understand the status of a super sports star in the United States. But like Hong Jinbao, he was shocked by the K-Martial Arts Hall.
It’s huge. I don’t know that the K-Martial Arts Hall now is more like a traditional Chinese medicine hall.
After making an appointment with Andy, Cheng Long continued to make phone calls to make appointments.
He still has a great reputation. As long as he finds someone, he will basically not shirk it, unless he really can't spare the time and can't get away.
However, not everyone gave him face. When he invited Zhou Yunfa on one of the two weeks, he was rejected.
It wasn't that he refused directly. Zhou Yunfa was quite polite. After a few simple greetings, he transferred the call to his agent before he could finish his words. Then the agent put forward a lot of conditions and so on.
Appearance fee, five-star hotel, etc.
Cheng Long didn't hesitate, forget it, and then invited a few more people, such as Li Min and Wang Fei.
The film circle in Xiangcheng is actually very small, and the news that Cheng Long invited a bunch of big names to the capital soon spread throughout the circle.
"tomorrow?"
Li Lianjie also got the news.
In 1992, his manager was shot dead. After being stimulated, he decided to make a golden chicken that lays eggs. Those people wanted the golden eggs he laid and would not hurt his egg-laying chicken, so he established the company in 1993.
Zhengdong Film Company, renamed Li Yangzhong, produced several films such as Fang Shiyu and Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng. They were considered successful and are now considered popular in Hong Kong and Asia.
He and Cheng Long are now two kings who have not met each other. They have not cooperated yet, but they still attach great importance to each other's actions. This time, Cheng Long's red zone was sold well in the United States, which also gave him a great stimulus.
The last time he went to the United States and opened a martial arts gym in Los Angeles, it was not to attack Hollywood, but to escape to the United States after being frustrated in Xiangcheng. Now, under the stimulation of Cheng Long, he also started to have a career in Hollywood.
thought.
"NBA superstar old K, K martial arts gym? Fengshen Street?"
His information came from Mei Yanfang. The two filmed a movie called "Letter to Dad" late last year and it was released in March this year. There is some connection between them.
After Mei Yanfang agreed to Cheng Long, she called him because he was from the capital and asked him if he would go, thus letting him get the news.
He is different from Hong Jinbao and Andy Lau because he has lived in Los Angeles on and off for a period of time and understands what the NBA is.
During his time in the United States, the Lakers' showtime period was coming to an end, but the status of several big Lakers stars in Los Angeles, such as Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and others, was very influential.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a number one person in our mainland. It's amazing!"
He is an athlete himself and has visited many countries abroad many times since he was a child. He did not expect that such an athlete with huge influence in the United States would appear in China, and he was very surprised.
He knew about Fengshen Street, a small street near Sanlitun, but he didn't expect it to be bought by a private person. He decided to go and have a look, it would be better if he could get to know Lao K.
…
The next day, on the morning of the 11th, Wang Tiejun received a call from Cheng Long, informing him of the time and number of people.
He was a little surprised because there were many people here. In addition to Cheng Long himself, there were also Andy Lau, Mei Yanfang, Yuan Biao, Hong Jinbao, Li Ming, etc., more than ten very big-name stars in Hong Kong.
They arrived at three o'clock in the afternoon and had a treat with the Y District Government at noon. There was no conflict in time. He quickly arranged the pick-up arrangements and the hotel arrangements.
At noon, Chaoyang District treated Wang Tiejun to a treat. It was also arranged at the Capital Hotel, and all the main leaders were present.
After lunch, Wang Tiejun and Yu Feihong took an arranged travel minibus to the airport to pick them up.
"Old K, where are you going?"
He was followed by a group of Chinese and foreign reporters at all times. When he was leaving, some reporters asked.
He didn't hide anything and told the story before getting in the car.
There was no reaction from foreign reporters. When the domestic reporters heard that so many celebrities were coming to Hong Kong, they became excited and quickly found a way to follow them to the airport.
When he appeared at the airport, he was immediately greeted by another round of onlookers. Everyone looked at him as if he was a stranger.
Cheng Long took the lead. As soon as he came out of the exit, he saw the giant Wang Tiejun. He quickly waved and shouted: "Old K."
"Brother Cheng." Lao Wang waved and greeted.
"This is Lao K?"
"How tall and strong is he?"
Looking up at Wang Tiejun, Hua Zai, Hong Jinbao and the others' eyes widened.
Cheng Long was about to make an introduction, but before he could say a few words, a large group of people surrounded their group of celebrities, and they were extremely enthusiastic.
After finally leaving the airport and getting on the minibus, Lao Wang had the opportunity to get to know Andy and others.
But it's a pity that he doesn't have a favorite Princess Xian. He has always wanted to see what Princess Xian looks like up close, without a hat.
"Hello Feihong, long time no see. Let's work together again if we have a chance."
"Brother Hua, how are you doing lately?"
"Hey, I'm fine. By the way, just call me Hua Zi. You don't have to call me so old, haha!"
Andy and Yu Feihong also knew each other and started chatting.
She observed that Andy looked very tired and had dark circles under his eyes that could not be covered by makeup. This was caused by the heavy workload, which meant that the king's debt had not been paid yet.
As we chatted, it was natural that we talked about Wang Tiejun.
"Feihong, your boyfriend is very capable. He has a martial arts gym with thousands of martial artists."
Hua Zai glanced at Wang Tiejun who was talking to Cheng Long in front of him, gave a thumbs up and whispered.
Yu Feihong was startled and suddenly laughed. After laughing, he explained: "Actually, it's not like that. His martial arts gym mainly provides services related to traditional Chinese medicine, such as medicated baths, medicated oil massage, acupuncture, etc. The martial arts business is not
There is no large-scale promotion.”
"So that's it!" Hua Zai then realized that he had thought wrong.
"That's a traditional Chinese medicine clinic, but a traditional Chinese medicine clinic with thousands of people is also very impressive."
Hong Jinbao next to him also understood. He really thought it was a martial arts gym with thousands of martial arts masters, but it turned out to be a traditional Chinese medicine clinic.
Wang Tiejun, who was in front of me, turned around and explained: "Now I mainly provide services related to traditional Chinese medicine, because this is more profitable. I will also increase the promotion of martial arts in the future. I am a little overwhelmed at the moment."
"Brother Bao, Hua Tsai, don't underestimate Lao K's martial arts gym. He makes tens of millions of dollars a year!" Cheng Long gave a thumbs up in envy.
"Ten million dollars?" Everyone in the car stared wide-eyed.
"No, no, now the three branches combined, customers, and so many brothers follow me, I can't make much money." Lao Wang said modestly.
"Don't listen to him, customer, even if you don't consume anything in a year, the membership fee alone will cost 30,000 US dollars. How much does it cost to have more than a thousand members a year? It's too easy to collect membership fees." Cheng Long laughed.
road.
"More than 40 million US dollars in membership fees?" Andy and other celebrities were dumbfounded.
"There aren't many left. I have hundreds of brothers who are extremely busy. One brother has to pay them at least six to seventy thousand dollars a year. That's tens of millions of dollars for a few hundred brothers. The tens of millions of membership fees collected may even
They can't even pay their wages." Lao Wang shook his head and said with a smile.
Cheng Long smiled and said, "Nowadays, those stars in Hollywood are not of high quality if they don't have a dedicated K-Martial Arts massage therapist."
Having said this, he added: "All the brands he endorses now are big international brands, either top or first-tier, twenty or thirty brands. This is his brand. And they are global endorsements."
"Wow!"
At this time, all the celebrities exclaimed. They also have international brands, but they are only regional endorsements, and the quantity and quality are not comparable.
"Have you heard of it before?" Li Min asked Wang Fei as they sat together.
Wang Fei shook his head and whispered: "I don't watch basketball."
Li Min thought for a while and said nothing again.
After chatting along the way, Lao and Wang became familiar with these celebrities from Xiangcheng.
Just after sending these celebrities to the arranged hotel, they received a call from home saying that guests were visiting.
"Li Lianjie?"
He was a little confused, what did this martial arts superstar want to do with him?
