"Nie Shouren?"
Zhao Yan was startled, "Hello, what's the matter?"
"Master Zhao, I want to meet and chat with you, is it okay?"
Nie Shouren's title was quite new to Zhao Yan. This was the first time someone called him Master Zhao.
"Can."
Zhao Yan readily agreed.
He was also quite interested in this martial arts master who suddenly appeared.
So the two quickly agreed on a place to meet.
More than thirty minutes later, Zhao Yan met Nie Shouren in a tea room.
The other party's dress at this time was different from that in the gym. He wore a white training uniform and black mille-layer cloth shoes. With his calm and quiet temperament, Zhao Yan felt like he was a man from the Republic of China period. Boxer.
"Master Zhao."
When Nie Shouren saw Zhao Yan entering the house, he quickly stood up and saluted him with clasped fists.
"Ah, Nie... hello, master."
Zhao Yan cupped his fists at the opponent unaccustomedly.
"Please sit down and have some tea."
Nie Shouren signaled to Zhao Yan.
After Zhao Yan sat down and took a sip of tea, Nie Shouren slowly spoke:
“I wonder what Master Zhao’s lineage is?”
"I practice kung fu that is passed down from my family. I learned Bajiquan from my grandfather since I was a child."
"I see, can I ask your grandfather's name?"
"Zhao Xianming."
"Zhao Xianming..."
Nie Shouren was thoughtful.
"Master Nie, have you ever heard of my grandfather?"
Zhao Yan asked curiously.
He actually wanted to know what his grandfather was like when he was young and what kind of stories he had, but unfortunately Zhao Xianming never told him these.
Nie Shouren hesitated for a moment and then said:
"I just heard that many years ago, a Bajiquan master named Zhao once caused a big disturbance in the martial arts community of Cang Province. He was very unhappy with the Zhang family of Cang Province. The two sides almost had to fight to the death. Finally, a senior came forward to stop it.”
"The Zhang family in Cangzhou?"
This is the second time Zhao Yan has heard this name.
Master Yu Youshan had told him before that currently in the country, only the Zhang family in Cang Province has the complete content of the Dragon Yin Iron Cloth Shirt.
The Zhang family in Cang Province is a martial arts family inherited from the Republic of China. Their ancestors have produced champions in martial arts and generals!
Unlike the declining martial arts family like Zhao Yan's own family, the Zhang family in Cangzhou has always been an evergreen tree in the martial arts world.
Just talking about one position can let outsiders understand the status of the Zhang family:
The current chairman of the National Wushu Association and director of the Wushu Sports Management Center of the State Sports General Administration is a member of the Zhang family!
Zhao Yan didn't expect that his grandfather had a grudge against the Zhang family back then.
"It's interesting. After I master my boxing skills, I will go to Zhang's house to help my grandpa regain his place!"
Zhao Yan thought to himself.
He is now a great boxer who can perform "double tactics". He feels that the Zhang family may not be able to find anyone better than him.
Of course, in this day and age, people don't need to be more powerful than him with their fists.
Therefore, in order to regain the ground, Zhao Yan's fists must be powerful enough to a certain extent.
"I studied under Han Dianguo, Teacher Han."
Nie Shouren took the initiative to reveal his inheritance.
This is a name that is well known in the martial arts world and even in many other places!
However, Zhao Yan has never heard of this name, and he knows very little about the martial arts world.
"Master Nie, you invited me here today. What do you want to talk to me about?"
Zhao Yan asked.
He didn't like beating around the bush, so he asked directly.
Nie Shouren smiled slightly:
"Actually, I only have one purpose for participating in this competition, which is to rectify the name of traditional Chinese martial arts! I wonder if this is your purpose, Master Zhao?"
"Forehead......"
Zhao Zhan was doubtful for a moment.
This was indeed his purpose at the beginning, but now his purpose was no longer pure, and he was thinking more about how to complete real-world tasks.
"Even seeking fame and fortune is human nature. As long as Chinese martial arts are used in the process and the spirit of martial arts is promoted, our goals will be the same!"
Nie Shouren continued.
"Over the years, the reputation of Chuanwu has become worse and worse. More and more people feel that Chuanwu cannot be practiced. Many young people even think that the things passed down by their ancestors are fake and those who teach Chuanwu are liars! I I want to change this situation, but my power alone is limited after all, so I would like to invite you, Master Zhao, to join us!"
"What do you want to do by joining?"
"Continue to compete on a higher platform, not just at home, we want to go abroad and let the whole world see the power of Chinese martial arts!"
Nie Shouren's eyes were bright, and his whole body seemed to be ignited, and he spoke impassionedly to Zhao Yan.
Without waiting for Zhao Yan to speak, what he said next surprised Zhao Yan even more:
"I have prepared a lot in advance for this. I have signed a contract with Longxiang Fighting Club, prepared a professional enough publicity team, and have contacted the official team of Jianguo UFC. If everything goes well, I will go there soon. Fight in the UFC! If you are willing to come over, I can ask my team to focus future promotions on you! I can assist you!"
"ah?"
Zhao Yan opened his eyes wide, "Why? You have worked so hard to prepare so much, why do you want to help me?"
He really doesn't understand.
Nie Shouren looked at him and smiled calmly:
"I am thirty-four years old this year, and you are only nineteen. You have a broader future and are more convincing than me. The most important thing is that your personal image is better than mine, and you are more suitable to be a star than me. !”
"Ah this..."
Zhao Yan never expected that this would be the reason, because he was handsome enough...
"Hahaha, don't underestimate this. I have actually studied many cases carefully, and I have truly understood the truth: it is better to fight beautifully than to fight hard!"
Nie Shouren smiled and said, "What we have to do is to better promote Chinese martial arts. The publicity method or business operation may even be more important than our own strength. And you, you are the best I have seen so far. The most suitable publicity target!”
"But... what should you do? You have worked so hard, are you willing to be inferior to others? Don't you want to be the most eye-catching one?"
Zhao Yan looked at Nie Shouren in confusion.
Nie Shouren smiled calmly:
"Of course I really want to, but there is a saying that my teachers and others often say. I have heard it many times, and gradually I am willing to believe in it."
"What words?"
"Success does not have to be mine!"
"..."
At this moment, Zhao Yan felt that Nie Shouren sitting opposite seemed to be glowing!
"So, Master Zhao, are you willing to join us?"
Nie Shouren looked at Zhao Yan sincerely.
"I......"
Zhao Yan opened his mouth, and finally shook his head with a bitter look on his face.
"Sorry, I can't join you."
"why?"
Nie Shouren frowned slightly, "If you have any conditions, you can ask for them, and I will try my best to satisfy you!"
Zhao Yan waved his hand: "It's not a matter of conditions."
He wants to participate in missions in the world of "Gunfire", he wants to enter "Special Forces Elite" to gain experience, and he has to concentrate on practicing martial arts every day... He has too many things to do, and he has no extra time and energy. Go and promote martial arts with Nie Shouren.
Whether it's playing games abroad, running around for promotions, maybe shooting commercials, filming movies, participating in interviews, participating in variety shows, etc... Zhao Yan doesn't have time to do any of these.
He wants to earn his own life, and he wants to move towards transcendence!
From the moment he was chosen by the world of "Gunfire", these were no longer suitable for him.
