Through the two holes on the mask, Ye Lingshuang stared into Coach Zhou's eyes.
"Tell me the truth, what is your relationship with the organizer?"
Coach Zhou didn’t hide anything.
"Actually, the entire building belongs to the organizer. I am one of the hired fitness coaches. I also serve as a middleman, or Bole. I find boxers like you and am responsible for bringing them to the venue. Of course, the prerequisites are The boxers volunteer. The organizer will give me a bonus based on the number of times the boxer participates in the competition. For example, you can give me 1,000 for one participation, and I will be your waiter throughout the whole process."
Ye Lingshuang lowered her lips. Of course, Coach Zhou couldn't see the smile under her mask.
"It's quite hard, and it's not as much as the money I make from a boxing match."
Coach Zhou nodded.
"That's true. To tell you the truth, I have participated in competitions, won a few, and made some money, but there are too many masters here. Later, I lost more and won less, and was gradually eliminated, so I started my career. Fitness instructor, part-time job as Bo Le.”
Ye Lingshuang felt that Coach Zhou told her everything, basically didn't hide anything, and seemed like an honest person.
"Do you know who the boss is behind the scenes?"
Coach Zhou shook his head.
"I have been here for three years. Except for the six people guarding the door, I have never seen anyone else in the boxing ring face to face, and no one has communicated with me. The boss behind the scenes is too mysterious and I don't know it at all. But you Don’t worry, the people here are very honest, and the money that belongs to you will not be less. There has never been any conflict over money, at least I have never seen it.”
"Then how many people can you introduce in one day here?"
When Ye Lingshuang asked this, she was actually asking Coach Zhou in disguise how much money he could earn in a day.
Coach Zhou smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"How many people are you introducing in a day? It's hard for me to meet one in ten and a half months. The last boxer I brought was probably two months ago. I haven't seen him for a long time, so he probably doesn't come anymore."
It seems that Coach Zhou does not earn much in this regard.
"Do you want to place a bet?"
Coach Zhou shook his head again.
"Why? Can't you see winning or losing from your perspective?"
Coach Zhou continued to explain.
"Whether you win here actually doesn't just depend on your strength, but on the betting situation. Whoever the backstage lets you win will win."
Ye Lingshuang became even more puzzled.
"Then you brought me to the boxing ring. How do you know that I can win when I get on stage?"
"You are a novice. Your opponent doesn't know you well, and the backstage doesn't know you either. There will be surprises. They like this ending. According to what I just taught you, you don't have to fight consecutively. There is no problem in winning five games. I also I'll take advantage of you and earn him 5,000 yuan tonight."
Ye Lingshuang, who was hiding behind the mask, smiled again. This Coach Zhou was not very ambitious or greedy. After playing five games, she would get a bonus of 410,000 yuan if she won them all, while Coach Zhou could only get 5,000 yuan.
Ye Lingshuang felt that this was unfair. After all, Coach Zhou could be considered her temporary manager.
"Is this good? If I win the bonus, no matter how much it is, we will share it equally."
Coach Zhou shook his head and rejected her.
"I can't break the rules here. You deserve the bonus, and I deserve the introduction fee. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to stay here for three years."
The more he behaved like this, the more curious Ye Lingshuang became and decided to drag Coach Zhou into the water.
"Then will you bet for me?"
Coach Zhou did not answer immediately. After a few seconds of silence, he said:
"I won't bet on ordinary boxers, but I will bet on you because you have the strength. However, I can't bet on every fight. The backstage is not allowed. Even if I bet, I don't bet much. ,G."
"Then how much will you bet? How many games can you bet?"
"10,000. I will bet on the first and second rounds. If you win these two rounds, I can get 100,000."
Five times the odds is already high.
Ye Lingshuang was a little moved.
"Can I place a bet?"
"cannot."
"Why?"
"You are a boxer and you are not allowed to place bets backstage."
"Then can you place a bet for me? In your name."
Coach Zhou remained silent for even longer.
"The maximum bet is 100,000 at a time, and you can only bet two rounds. If you bet more, you will lose."
"Why should I lose? I have no problem beating these boxers I just saw."
Coach Zhou shook his head.
"This is capital operation. If you bet too much and you win consecutive games, more people will bet on you to win, and the organizers will lose money. They will notify us that you must lose, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
"How much trouble?"
Ye Lingshuang didn't believe this evil.
"I don't know what the specific trouble is. You may be unable to leave this room, and you won't be able to take away the money you win."
After a moment of silence, Coach Zhou said again:
"I have not personally experienced this situation, I have only heard about it. Anyway, as far as I know, no one has dared to break this rule in the past three years."
"Then we will follow their rules. I will transfer 200,000 to you, and you will be responsible for betting on the first and second rounds. I will be responsible for boxing. Each game will last more than 10 minutes. I work hard to win. It's hard to say in advance. Okay, go on stage and box, and the winnings will be mine. If you win money after placing a bet, we will split it equally. I can’t let you work with me in vain."
Coach Zhou didn't seem to understand what Ye Lingshuang meant.
"What? You want to split your betting winnings with me?"
Ye Lingshuang nodded.
"If you cooperate, I won't let you lead me to this dark world. Maybe I won't come next time. It's not a good place after all. Now that I'm here, let's not come in vain."
Coach Zhou finally nodded.
"Okay, maybe I'll be here for the last time today."
"Why?"
There may be many difficulties hidden in Coach Zhou’s words.
"Because I saw your strength and helping you place bets is actually cheating."
"Cheating?"
Ye Lingshuang sneered.
"Aren't they cheating? Unless they don't allow you to bet, we can't count it as cheating if we allow you to bet."
Coach Zhou was silent again.
At this time, there were three more fights in the ring.
Although the audience was very noisy, Ye Lingshuang could not tell which game was more exciting than the one he saw first.
After deciding to play, let Coach Zhou line him up.
Coach Zhou took out a remote control, pressed a few buttons, and arranged a random one for Ye Lingshuang.
Ye Lingshuang transferred 200,000 to Coach Zhou as a spare on the spot.
After watching another game, it was Ye Lingshuang's turn.
Interestingly, Ye Lingshuang's opponent is also a female boxer, number 32.
The other person is about the same height as her, weighs 160 pounds, and is obviously stronger than her.
According to the requirements of the competition, the two people interacted with the audience on stage for three minutes, which was actually to give the audience time to place bets.
The radio was introducing the achievements of two people.
Ye Lingshuang is a newbie and has no record to speak of. Boxer No. 32 has won 2 out of 3 fights.
Coach Zhou followed the previous two people's plan and placed a bet of 100,000 on Ye Lingshuang.
Game start.
Ye Lingshuang started to perform.
Following Coach Zhou's instructions, he staggered on stage, narrowly dodged, and even deliberately received a punch from the opponent, but his dodge was just right, and the opponent's punch just happened to hit him, and he just lost his strength. The audience in the audience could also hear the sound of fists hitting flesh.
Boxer No. 32 becomes more courageous as he fights.
Her punches come out fast, and Ye Lingshuang dodges quickly. Her punches come out slowly, and Ye Lingshuang dodges slowly.
Ye Lingshuang didn't always appear to be beaten, and would occasionally fight back. She just used her strength just right and hit the opponent with her fist, just like a punch from an ordinary person, without causing any harm to the opponent.
This kind of fighting effect is extremely exciting in the eyes of the audience. The two women jumped up and down on the stage and fought fiercely. The audience was excited and cheered for them.
From the perspective of boxer No. 32, Ye Lingshuang's strength is not as good as hers at all, but not much inferior to her. She is a strong opponent. She is very confident that she can defeat Ye Lingshuang.
And Ye Lingshuang needed the other party to have such confidence, otherwise she would not be able to continue performing.
There was an electronic timing watch hanging on the east side of the arena. Ye Lingshuang glanced at it and saw that ten minutes had passed.
She suddenly took a step forward and hit her opponent's left shoulder with a straight punch. Wherever her fist landed, she picked the right place to hit. There weren't many places on a woman's body that she hit, so she had to choose the right spot, as she was very worried about causing serious damage to the opponent. harm.
Although she can treat the opponent, she can't be so obvious in this arena, so she should try to avoid it as much as possible.
Boxer No. 32 did not dodge the punch and was suddenly hit to the ground.
Ye Lingshuang clasped her hands in a defensive posture, as if waiting for the opponent to get up before fighting again.
The referee started counting the seconds.
Boxer No. 32 still did not stand up after all.
Ye Lingshuang won.
Coach Zhou was particularly excited in the audience.
He did not run to the ring to greet Ye Lingshuang, but always sat in his seat.
Ye Lingshuang won the competition, which did not cause a sensation in the audience. She won too hard and the audience was a little tired.
In fact, because she is a novice, very few people bet on her ability to win, and most people are betting on boxer No. 32.
So after this scene, there were only a few cheering people on the field, but most people were in vain.
Coach Zhou knew in his heart that the boss behind the scenes made a profit this time.
Ye Lingshuang stepped off the stage to take a rest, and a staff member threw her a white towel and a bottle of mineral water.
Others, no one paid attention to her.
Silently returned to his original seat and sat with Coach Zhou.
"pretty!"
Coach Zhou tilted his head slightly and said two words in a low voice.
Ye Lingshuang nodded slightly, wiped her sweat and drank water naturally, then sat on a chair to rest.
Coach Zhou signed up Ye Lingshuang again, filled out a random form, and waited for the next game.
15 minutes later, it was Ye Lingshuang's turn to play again.
Her opponent was boxer No. 44, a man who was 1.8 meters tall and weighed 170 pounds. His body was covered with tendons. He was wearing a black mask and his face could not be seen.
But the aura he stood on the stage was extraordinary, much more aura than the female boxer in the last match.
Ye Lingshuang was obviously much weaker than him, and she also showed a cautious look.
From the beginning, she dodged left and right, trying her best to dodge the opponent's attacks. In the eyes of the audience, she looked like she was powerless. Every punch she dodged was regarded as a fluke.
After the opponent punched ten times, Ye Lingshuang would probably return one punch. Because of his long arms, this punch could only hit the opponent's arm. The key was that it was not very powerful and could not cause any harm to the opponent.
Boxer No. 44 is really good at boxing and kicking. He is very powerful. If it weren't for Ye Lingshuang's flexible body, every punch would hit her.
Little did he know that Ye Lingshuang's embarrassment was to confuse him, the audience, and the people behind the scenes who were controlling the situation.
Ye Lingshuang deliberately pretended to be out of breath in order to perform realistically this time.
Boxer No. 44 always thought that his next punch could determine the outcome. But during the fight, he realized that the punch that hit Ye Lingshuang was already at the end of its strength and had no power at all.
Ye Lingshuang seemed to trip over herself and fell down. Boxer No. 44 felt that an opportunity had come and took the opportunity to add a punch, hoping to knock her down and end the fight.
Coach Zhou in the audience was shocked. He was really worried that Ye Lingshuang would lose this game.
