Chapter 172 Are you short of money? (1 more)
Tang Xinyi, who originally wanted to test Lin Shu's level of strength, now had a look of embarrassment on her pretty face, and didn't know how to speak for a while.
Can you not be embarrassed? !
Thinking about just now when she was brazenly trying to challenge someone, Lin Shu declined, and she asked him if he was afraid. Tang Xinyi wished she could find a crevice in the ground, her cheeks were burning hot, she was so ashamed!
Lin Shu looked at her, "Director Tang, if you're okay, I'll leave first!"
"Don't go, I really have something to do with you!" Tang Xinyi hurriedly stopped him, not caring about the embarrassment of being overestimated just now, she explained what she wanted to do with Lin Shu:
"It's like this, there is a competition tomorrow, and I want to invite you to help participate."
Contest?
Lin Shu was stunned, "What competition?"
"It's the World Youth Fighting Tournament held every three years." Seeing Lin Shu frowning as if she hadn't heard of it before, Tang Xinyi added: "It's not a regular event, it's a non-governmental event. These four Asian countries jointly hold the event every three years, and this year it happens to be held in the East China Sea of China!"
Lin Shu hummed, and asked strangely, "You want to ask me to help you play the game?"
"Yes!" Tang Xinyi nodded, "The competition stipulates that each country should send 3 people, but our Master Dai got injured a few days ago and couldn't play, so I thought of you."
After listening, Lin Shu thought for a while, and said frankly: "To be honest, I am not very interested in this kind of competition. Moreover, I am not a taekwondo practitioner, and my kung fu is not suitable for this kind of competition!"
"It's not about taekwondo, and there are no restrictions on the types of boxing." Tang Xinyi hurriedly explained.
Lin Shu shook his head, "There's no need to look for me, Donghai City is so big, can't you find a few boxing masters?"
Tang Xinyi also shook her head and said, "I really can't find it!"
Lin Shudun felt strange, and looked at her suspiciously. In the huge Donghai City, it is impossible to find a few fighters in a private competition, right? It's not the Asian Championships, it's a world-class competition!
"Maybe you don't know much about this competition? You thought it was just a fighting competition held by ordinary people?" Tang Xinyi looked at him.
Lin Shu hummed, but said nothing.
"Actually, this is not the case. The reason why this competition is non-governmental is because its rules are very cruel and the fights are bloody, so it cannot be declared!" Tang Xinyi introduced to Lin Shu: "This competition not only does not limit the types of boxing, but also It's also unrestricted fighting. The contestants who come to participate in the competition must have at least a second-degree black belt in their country! Moreover, they are often well-known local black boxing champions. The reason is that the prize money for this competition is too high. Which country wins, can get a grand prize of 3 million US dollars!"
Three million U.S. dollars, converted into RMB, is more than eighteen million!
Lin Shu was slightly taken aback, this...what a big deal!
It's no wonder that experts from various countries will come to join the battle. However, thinking of the special identities of himself and Tang Xinyi, Lin Shu couldn't help frowning and said:
"Director Tang, the prize money is quite a lot, but it seems inappropriate for the two of us to participate in the competition?"
After all, they are active personnel. It is said that it does not comply with the regulations to participate in this kind of competition with the nature of underground black boxing!
Tang Xinyi nodded: "Indeed, but this year's competition, I can't do it if I don't participate. Not only do I have to participate, but... I also have to win!"
Lin Shu said: "Are you short of money?"
"no!"
Tang Xinyi smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry I forgot to tell you clearly. Before this year's competition, Huaxia had been at the bottom for three full seasons. This year, Dongying and Country H even let out words about our bragging about Huaxia Kung Fu, but So, let us stop pretending to be orthodox in martial arts, their taekwondo and karate are the orthodoxy of martial arts!"
Lin Shu narrowed his eyes when he heard the words: "Chinese Kungfu is nothing more than that, they are the orthodox? How dare they say it!"
"It's more than that." Tang Xinyi said: "Although this kind of competition is not a large-scale competition, they have saved the videos from previous competitions and publicized it in the world media, making many overseas Chinese feel aggrieved and lose confidence. "
"well!"
Speaking of this, Tang Xinyi sighed, and then said: "You also know that now that the martial arts are on the decline, there are very few real masters of the martial arts. They may become the guest ministers of some big families, or hide in the city or hide among the people. Almost no one participated in this kind of competition! Those who can come to participate in the competition, they have the strength, but those from Dongpu, H country, and T country are all masters... So, we have not won for nine years!"
Lin Shu listened carefully. In fact, he could understand what Tang Xinyi meant.
The status quo of Chinese martial arts is indeed the case.
Since the war that year, there has been a serious discontinuity in traditional martial arts. The real kung fu of many schools is on the verge of being lost. In China, there are very few people who really understand martial arts. Also affected by some documents, martial arts are far from being advanced. spread so widely in the last century.
Aside from talking about it, let’s take Taijiquan as an example. What is known to the public at present can no longer be called boxing. It is closer to aerobics. It gives people the feeling that it is slow, soft and weak, and has no lethality at all.
But Lin Shu, who is proficient in ancient Taijiquan, understands that this is not the case at all!
True Taijiquan, like ancient Bajiquan, is a very powerful and real killing technique!
slow?
Slow down! It's only now that it has evolved into Tai Chi aerobics, which gives people a feeling of old lady embroidery. In fact, ancient Tai Chi can also kill people in an instant!
This is a very serious fault.
If Taijiquan is really so unbearable, why is there the phrase "Taiji in literature secures the world, and Baji in martial arts shakes the universe"?
If Taijiquan is really that bad, it won't be compared with Bajiquan!
"Ding! Detect the host's current environment and trigger a new task: participate in the 'World Youth Fighting Competition', beat Japanese pirates hard, and show our country's prestige. Reward: A treasure chest of lost ancient martial arts skills at random!"
"Note: The task is not mandatory!"
At this moment, a mechanical, three-dimensional metal prompt came from his ear, and Lin Shu was slightly taken aback. Lost ancient martial arts skills? This is a good thing!
Moreover, the eight words of beating Japanese pirates and praising our country sound very domineering. Didn’t I see that this system is still a cynical youth? ! However, it suits Lin Shu's taste.
So Lin Shu took over the task, looked at Tang Xinyi, and nodded: "Okay, I agree! But Director Tang, I don't know if I should say something."
"What?" Tang Xinyi asked.
"You said you didn't practice Huaxia Wushu, what kind of Taekwondo did you practice!? What's the point of practicing taekwondo! " Lin Shu complained.
