Chapter 340 K Martial Arts Hall Forms a Fighting Hall
Oakley is optimistic about Ben because he sees his qualities, his iron-blooded style, and his tenacious willpower. But when it comes to his strength and potential, well, he can't make any big claims.
"Well, let me tell Colangelo that you can just bring someone over for a trial training, and that's it." Wang Tiejun said at this time.
"That's great! Thank you, old K!" Oakley said excitedly.
This is the recommendation of Old K, and the Suns management should consider it. He feels that Ben has a chance of joining the Suns.
But he didn’t know that last time the Suns wanted to give Lao Wang a face and keep Ma Jian, but he refused. So this time if Big Ben doesn’t satisfy the management, the management won’t keep Ma Jian just because it was Lao Wang’s recommendation.
human.
On the 15th, Wang Tiejun’s coordination training was completed and he reached the ceiling of level 91.
This level of coordination is actually pretty good for a giant with a height of 216 centimeters and a tonnage of 130 kilograms.
On this day, Oakley personally came to Phoenix with his big book.
Old K introduced them to the trial training, and Colangelo Jr. personally received the two of them and arranged the trial training.
I took a physical test first, and there was nothing surprising. Even with a wingspan of 218 centimeters, for an insider, the overall height is still at a serious disadvantage.
Next, a round of offensive and defensive tests was arranged, but there were still no highlights.
After all the tests were completed, a trainer said to Colangelo: "Sir, he has no offensive skills. He has no back-up skills, no facing the basket, and no shooting. Apart from the second attack, he will do nothing on the offensive end.
, he doesn’t even have offensive awareness.
Of course, my performance on the defensive end is better, but I still lack defensive skills and defensive awareness. My rebounding ability is okay, but not enough, and my blocking skills still need to be honed."
After talking for a long time, there was nothing nice to say anyway. After hearing this, Oakley's face became darker and Ben became more depressed.
Oakley thought for a while and felt that something needed to be done, otherwise they would have to leave the next moment.
After coughing twice, he stood up and said to Colangelo: "Mr. Colangelo, the last time Ben and Old K met was on the day of the draft. He thought it was a pity that Ben was not selected.
things."
Colangelo Jr. shrugged. Is there any point in a polite word? If Old K wanted Ben Wallace to stay, with his character, he would definitely speak directly, not just an opportunity for a trial.
What he thought was good, Lao Wang didn't know Ben Wallace at all, let alone understand him, how could he randomly ask the team to give him a contract?
He can't take care of his own K-Martial Arts Gym and Fengshen Street. How can he have the energy to interfere with the team's management affairs?
Oakley made amends again and said with some excitement: "Mr. Colangelo is a very hard-working person and he never gives up, just like old K.
Why are the Suns unwilling to give him a chance, just like they gave old K a chance? He won't let you down. A non-guaranteed contract is fine, or a ten-day short contract is fine. If it doesn't work, give him a chance.
A pre-season contract is fine too!”
When little Colangelo heard Old K's name, his heart moved. When his father brought Old K back from Chinatown in New York, he couldn't understand it, even if he was only given a contract as a trainer.
But the result was completely unimaginable to him at the time. Old K gave the Suns and their family an incredibly huge return, an investment of one, a return of one hundred.
He looked at Ben Wallace and thought about the fact that K's athletic talent was not favored by others at the beginning, but in the end he improved his athletic quality through hard training. Will this undrafted player also have a gorgeous transformation?
The possibility is too small. There is only one old K in this world, and there should not be a second one.
However, the Suns now have a lot of vacancies, why not stay and take a look? Anyway, the team definitely needs a few fringe players to fill in the gaps.
Father discovered Lao K. If this undrafted player can make a name for himself in the future, it will become a good story for their father and son.
Thinking of this, he decided to come down and said to Oakley: "Well, Oakley, there are still two games in the summer league. I will give him a summer league contract first. If his performance is decent, I will let him continue to play in the season."
It’s a pre-game, and I’ll make a decision based on my performance later.”
"marvelous!"
Oakley said happily.
A smile appeared on Da Ben's black iron face, as if he was crying.
"Does he want to play the fifth position? His height is too short. I think he can try the fourth position. The height disadvantage will not be so obvious." Colangelo Jr. said.
With a monster like Old K, he really couldn't stand it. His own center was so short, so he didn't want Ben to play the fifth position at all.
"okok, he can play at positions 4 and 5." Oakley said quickly.
Next, Ben Wallace signed a summer league contract, which also paid, but was not high. Then the two immediately rushed to Los Angeles, where the summer leagues of several Western Conference teams were held.
The current league does not have a unified summer league. Instead, several teams join together to do their own thing.
"Ben, you are getting closer and closer to the NBA. If you have the opportunity, you must work hard, work hard, work hard, just like Old K, to firmly grasp this opportunity."
As soon as he left the Suns headquarters, Oakley kept urging him.
"I know, Charles, I will try my best." Nodding heavily, Ben said in a deep voice.
This afternoon, CAA suddenly announced that Michael Ovitz, one of the company's five founders and the company's current president, officially resigned from all positions at CAA.
At the same time, the company announced that Vice President Jim Maloney will serve as President of CAA.
An hour later, Disney, one of the Hollywood giants, announced that it had hired Michael Ovitz as president of the company.
This news caused a stir in Hollywood, but it quickly disappeared and did not inspire much change.
caa's unique operating model allowed the company to stabilize quickly and fully reflected caa's corporate culture, which is that the company can operate normally without anyone else.
This incident also did not affect Wang Tiejun. Hawksman specifically contacted him to inform him of the news.
…
On the evening of August 16, Lao Wang suddenly received a call from Liu Changjiang in Los Angeles.
"Brother, those people have spent a lot of money on bail. Our lawyers have collected some evidence and are preparing to submit it to the prosecutor's office. But just now they sent lawyers over and wanted to settle with us. They are willing to pay one million US dollars. Please don't send them to us."
The evidence is submitted, what do you think we should do?"
"Yangjiang, it is illegal to collect money privately in the United States. The tax bureau alone can send you to jail for tax evasion. I can't get away with it either. Didn't the lawyer tell you?" He said angrily.
"Ah? The lawyer wasn't here just now. I thought this matter would never come to light, so I didn't notify him." Liu Changjiang was dumbfounded and suddenly cursed: "Damn sticks, they want to trick us?"
"You're not stupid enough!"
He cursed again and said: "Remember, don't get carried away by a small amount of money. If you have any questions, contact a lawyer in time. Also, let our lawyers continue to investigate them and don't be polite to them."
"I know, brother." Liu Changjiang said quickly.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Tiejun suddenly thought of a question. There will definitely be more door-to-door kick-offs in the future. If someone sends a challenge in advance according to the rules, the martial arts gym will have to accept it.
Wang Tielong's cousins are capable of actual combat, but their kind of actual combat is different from the actual combat in a martial arts school, and there will be trouble if someone loses their life.
Others can do street fighting, but they are very good at tortoise boxing, including himself. If they are restricted according to certain rules, they will suffer a lot.
After all, Chuanwu's special moves are usually vicious and life-threatening moves. Limiting those moves is tantamount to tying up his hands and feet.
Chuanwu is divided into routines and Sanshou. Today's Sanda is the Sanshou created by Chuanwu. It can also be practiced in the ring, but few of his brothers have practiced Sanda.
However, he is not afraid of those who compete in other martial arts gyms, because if you want to compete in his gym, you have to follow his rules. His rules are no rules, street fighting style.
Because he has practiced martial arts for a few days, he also pays close attention to fighting in the United States and understands some situations.
In the United States, fighting is divided into four categories: boxing, kickboxing, wrestling, and mixed martial arts.
Regardless of boxing or wrestling, it is not closely related to the scope of k-martial arts. Free fighting and mixed martial arts can be considered.
Fighting is mainly Muay Thai and kickboxing, that is, standing fighting, while mixed martial arts, also known as mma sports, means fighting without rules, including standing and ground fighting.
He knew that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was introduced to the United States in 1993, and the Brazilian Gracie family, known as the world's number one fighting family, entered the United States. Art David and Gracie founded UFC. The first UFC competition was held that year. Now UFC is in
The influence of the United States is also growing.
After thinking about it, he decided to let K Martial Arts Hall hire a group of the best MMA trainers and free fighting trainers to train a group of fighting masters and then participate in various fighting events.
K martial arts gym must not only develop high-end customers, but also develop in many aspects. Otherwise, it will become a pure traditional Chinese medicine gym, which will not meet the requirements of a martial arts gym.
Then he called and informed Liu Changjiang, told him the decision, and asked him to inform Wang Tielong and Wang Tieshu, asking the three of them to first select 30 of the brothers with the best physical fitness, not too old, and then
Hire the best trainers to train them. After training for a year and a half, arrange for them to play in competitions.
On the 20th, Yu Feihong’s parents came to the capital.
The two went to pick them up at the airport. After settling in the hotel, they were picked up at the Capital Hotel. Da Ya and Er Ya also arrived with Wang Aiguo and his wife, and the two families formally met.
The atmosphere was still very harmonious. Daya and Yu’s father were alumni of Tsinghua University. Yu’s father had a lively conversation and talked about some things that happened in Tsinghua.
The parents of both parties have made an agreement together not to talk about it this year, but to get married at this time next year and can't delay it any longer.
Yu's mother wanted to get the two of them married now. After all, if someone died, everyone would be unhappy, but Feihong was reluctant. Her film and television company had just been established and she didn't have any extra energy.
It just so happened that the medicinal herbs that King Tiejun had ordered to brew had already been prepared. He ordered a few pairs to be brought over, and he also got three free-range chickens from the suburbs to prepare for the final pickling.
The main ingredient of this kind of medicinal diet must be free-range chickens that are more than one year old, and then marinated with some of the medicinal herbs in the formula. The cooking time is one day, and it can be cooked one day later. It needs to be cooked in a good earthen pot with a slow fire for a day and a night.
Only then can it be achieved.
It was getting dark, and Sister Liu asked while killing the chicken: "Son, are these the medicinal recipes you collected? One hundred thousand prescriptions, can you go to heaven if you eat them?"
"Of course not."
He quickly shook his head and said, "It's definitely not poisonous."
"Ha ha……"
Wang Aiguo, who was helping next to him, laughed.
Sister Liu glared at Wang Tiejun angrily and said, "Let's try it ourselves first. It tastes good. Then we invite Feihong's parents to try it at home."
Lao Wang nodded and said: "I definitely want to invite you, but what about the taste? This is a medicated diet, and its nourishing effect is the first. I'm afraid the taste is not that good."
"What nourishing effect can it have?" Wang Aiguo asked with interest.
"Immortal." Wang Tiejun said confidently.
Wang Aiguo and Liu Damei both rolled their eyes at him at the same time. This thing can lead to immortality. What kind of elixir could the First Emperor send Xu Fu to find?
The next night, the Wang family began to cook medicinal food in the prepared earthen pots. The three pots were placed in a row and burned with charcoal.
After two or three hours of simmering, the medicinal aroma overflowed from the kitchen to the entire villa.
At first, the family was not used to the smell, but it didn't take long for them to like the smell.
On the evening of the 22nd, the Wang family invited Yu's father and mother to visit and taste the medicinal food.
Not to mention the efficacy of this medicinal diet, the taste is really nothing to say. Eight people ate all three chickens. After killing them, there were more than three kilograms of chickens. Wang Tiejun ate one and a half chickens alone, and the other seven
After eating one and a half, not even a drop of soup was left.
When my father and mother returned to Hangzhou the next day, Wang Tiejun and Yu Feihong asked them to take away some medicinal materials for medicated meals and medicated baths, and told them to use them once a day, which was good for their health.
At the end of the month, Gao Feng came to the capital to report on his work. The procedures for the pharmaceutical company had been completed and the basic personnel were in place. It would take another month to build the factory.
Wang Tiejun asked him to hire employees quickly and conduct some training.
The systematic prescription has requirements for the brewing of each medicinal material. The medicinal materials used in the United States now are bought and brewed by oneself. The same is true in China.
Time entered September, and on the 3rd, K Times Real Estate Company announced an investment plan to build a sports center with an investment of up to 100 million US dollars on Fengshen Street.
The center will include a world-class basketball stadium that can accommodate nearly 20,000 people, a five-star hotel with a construction area of 100,000 square meters, a swimming pool, a national fitness center, a tennis court and many other ancillary supporting buildings. The company
A tender for the rules design of the sports center will be held publicly on September 15th.
This news caused a sensation, because Wang Tiejun's influence quickly spread to the United States and the World Health Organization.
In the early 1980s, the White Swan Hotel was built with funds raised by Mr. Huo from Xiangcheng, with a construction area of more than 90,000 square meters and a cost of about 180 million yuan. It was the first five-star hotel in China.
This time, the investment in this sports center reached more than 800 million yuan. Even after more than ten years, this is still a considerable investment.
After the news was announced, all the powerful architectural design schools in the country immediately began to inquire about the news and prepare to participate in the planning and design bidding, as well as abroad.
Wang Tiejun's planning requirements for the sports center are to reflect Chinese culture and not to be blindly Westernized. This is also a requirement based on the results of the last discussion with several departments.
This requirement is most beneficial to domestic design institutes.
Bai Changsheng formed a team of experts to check this bidding meeting and will also participate in the review of works in the future.
On the 13th, the new semester arrived. Erya left the capital and returned to Chang'an, while Daya also returned to Tsinghua University.
The 15th will arrive soon, and a large-scale bidding will be held as scheduled.
There are 22 domestic individual teams and units participating, and 17 foreign companies, for a total of 39 companies participating in the bidding.
Finally, after evaluation by a team of experts, Wang Tiejun decided on a team from the National Institute of Architectural Design whose rules and concepts satisfied him the most.
By the end of September, the summer camp officially closed, and one hundred and one children returned to their respective families. Before leaving, each child was given ten pairs of sneakers and two jerseys.
Dayao gave him ten pairs of sneakers of his own, plus what this guy had saved during this period, he took away fifteen pairs of sneakers when he left.
In the past month and a half, through observation and the preliminary files established by scouts, he had a certain understanding of these children.
Among them, there are only a dozen or so that are worth cultivating, that is, those with the best talents, but no one knows how many will be trained in the end.
The training environment, coaching team, willpower, injuries, family reasons, etc., and even accidents like the ones he encountered before, will all be factors that hinder their growth.
When these dozen of the best children left, they also took away a training plan for the coming year and an invitation letter to next year's summer camp.
The training plan was drawn up by Wang Tiejun based on the opinions of several trainers. After so many systematic trainings, his physical fitness training and center basketball skills training have reached a very high level. This seems to be his
A talent that is even higher than those of those American trainers.
In these more than a dozen training plans, he is the main focus on physical fitness training, he is also the main focus on center technical training, and the training of other positions is mainly based on those trainers.
As long as these children train according to the plan within the next year, they will make great progress.
In this summer camp, there is a talented center prospect, Dayao, who is also very attentive to Dayao's training plan.
A lot of thought has been spent on physical fitness training, especially strength training, as well as center technical training.
On the closing day of the camp, Liu Yumin also attended. After seeing off the children, he talked with Wang Tiejun about his medicated bath and medicated oil massage.
Last time Wang Tiejun said that he would only charge the cost of medicinal materials and basic labor costs. Taken together, the cost of a pair of medicines is about 40 yuan. If an athlete consumes two pairs of traditional Chinese medicines every day, that is 80 yuan, which is about 80 yuan a month.
Two thousand four hundred yuan.
The combined cost of the men's and women's basketball teams is more than 100,000 yuan a month. The national team can train for a few months at most, and the annual expenses will not exceed 1 million.
To be honest, at this cost price, Lao Wang set the price based on his own conscience. He didn't make a dime, and he might even have to pay extra.
But this expenditure is still too large for the current national team. It is higher than the salary of athletes. The sabbatical committee cannot come up with it, and the team has not approved it.
The ball company's statement is very simple. The basketball department has approved it for you. Do you want other sports?
However, Liu Yumin took part of the limited funds from the Basketball Department and wanted to buy some medicated oil from Wang Tiejun to use for the athletes of the men's and women's basketball teams who have more injuries, so that medicated baths would not be needed.
Too luxurious.
She brought all the money.
"fifty thousand?"
Looking at the five piles of RMB that Liu Yumin placed in front of him, Lao Wang was a little stunned.
For him a few years ago, 50,000 yuan was a very big sum, which forced him to go to the United States to work illegally, but now 50,000 yuan is really insignificant to him.
In fact, it is hard for him to imagine what kind of economic environment it is like to earn only a few thousand yuan a year in China, while the brothers who followed him out can also earn hundreds of thousands of yuan a year.
