Chinese martial arts! Grandmaster

Chapter 110: Admit defeat! Admit defeat!

Four p.m.

Chen Jie rushed back to Hengyang from South China and was busy visiting the warehouse of an abandoned chemical plant in the suburbs.

After seeing the high walls of the chemical plant and the surrounding rivers.

Chen Jie was very satisfied with the warehouse of this chemical plant.

The chemical plant is very large, with several large warehouses in the middle.

Originally, Chen Jie was worried that chemicals were stored here and were corrosive.

If that's the case, then there's no point in renting.

The things he wanted to store were all extremely precious items.

Including furniture made of rosewood and ebony, as well as many large jade and jadeite ornaments.

If it is corroded by chemicals, the loss will be huge.

However, after learning more about it, I found out that the chemical plant produces organic resins.

That is, it is a secondary processing plant of petrochemical industry, and many materials are refined in the petrochemical plant.

Therefore,
There are no corrosive raw materials inside the chemical plant.

It’s just that due to environmental protection requirements, this place is close to the river and we are afraid that it will affect the living environment, so we have to move away.

After observing the surrounding environment, Chen Jie immediately decided to rent this place.

Relatively speaking, the monthly rent is not cheap.

The entire chemical plant covers an area of about 10,000 square meters, and the monthly rent is about 100,000 yuan.

Therefore,
The rent for a year is 120 million.

In addition, four security guards will be arranged to guard the place 30 hours a day, which costs about yuan a year.

So, the total cost is about 150 million per year.

Just when Chen Jie was busy renting a warehouse.

Inside the elite martial arts gym, Gong Li is calling a meeting of all participating students for the final mobilization.

In front of him was a thick stack of information.

It is clear,
He has done a lot of homework in the past two days, hoping that the Hengyang branch can achieve excellent results in this city martial arts selection competition.

of course,

Most of the information was compiled by other coaches in the martial arts school.

He has been analyzing the offensive and defensive characteristics of all the participating boxers these past two days.

"Tomorrow is the opening of the city's martial arts trials. I won't say anything else!"

"For this year's Hengyang Martial Arts Trials, the headquarters has set a goal for us to win the top three. With our current overall strength, it is very challenging."

"Next, we will analyze in detail the masters of the major martial arts schools in Hengyang. You need to pay special attention to them."

"Based on the city and provincial martial arts ranking competitions in recent years, I have selected nine outstanding masters. If you encounter them during the draw, be very careful."

"Several of them are the favorites to win this city's martial arts trials. Everyone must understand their fighting styles clearly."

"Know yourself and your enemy, and you will win every battle! We won't fight a battle we are not sure of. If we want to achieve excellent results, we must understand our opponent——!"

"—"

From the scale of this year's HY City Martial Arts Selection Competition, we can see that martial arts are very popular here.

There were thirty-two martial arts schools of all sizes participating in the competition across the city.

That's right,

This is after screening by the Municipal Martial Arts Association, and there are 32 martial arts gyms of a certain scale.

Each martial arts school has four places to participate, and a total of 128 boxers will participate.

However, the prize money for the final selection was very disappointing.

Champion: 5 yuan; Runner-up: 2 yuan; Third place: 1 yuan;

4th place: 5 yuan;

5th to 8th place: 2 yuan;

Since this is not a commercial boxing match, but a martial arts selection competition held by the Municipal Martial Arts Association, the prize money is pitifully small.

of course,

There are definitely benefits. As long as you can make it into the top eight in the city, you will be included in the list of the Municipal Martial Arts Association and have the opportunity to directly represent the Municipal Martial Arts Association in the provincial selection competition.

In other words, if you want to win the honor, you must reach the quarterfinals.

In the past, the comprehensive strength of the Elite Branch would definitely be ranked among the top three.

Moreover, the heavyweight player Fang Qiang is a well-known "heavy artilleryman" in the Hengyang martial arts world!
but,

It will be extremely difficult for Fang Qiang to get into the top three in this city martial arts selection competition.

"First of all, we need to be careful of Yingjie Martial Arts School. They have several heavyweight boxers who have won prizes in the provincial Sanda fighting competition."

"Fang Qiang, Zhang Tao, Wang Xilie, Li Bin, when you face the boxers from Yingjie Martial Arts School, you need to use this fighting style—!"

for the rest of the time,

Gong Li constantly analyzes the style characteristics of boxers from major martial arts gyms in HY City.

have to say,

Gong Li's professional level is indeed very high, and he can always accurately analyze the opponent's weaknesses.

"Several of the boxers from Yingjie Martial Arts School are very strong, and there are several other boxers who need special attention. There is no need for us to waste our energy in the group stage!"

"Remember, the group stage of this city martial arts selection competition adopts a points system, not an elimination system."

"This is very important. That is to say, when you are able to advance and encounter an opponent you cannot defeat, choose to admit defeat!"

"Our goal is to reach the top three, and we must conserve our strength in the group stage."

"This is not a sign of cowardice, but a tactic!"

"Fang Qiang, you are ranked first in the heavyweight category of the Hengyang branch. You have a heavy burden on your shoulders. Your performance is crucial to whether we can achieve excellent results!"

Fang Qiang took a deep breath and looked up at Gong Li.

then,

He looked around and didn't see Chen Jie.

He knew that Chen Jie had taken a leave of absence, and wondered whether Chen Jie would show up at the sports center tomorrow.

at this time,

Fang Qiang wanted to say something but stopped himself. After thinking about it, he didn't know how to say it and could only sigh.

If it were in the past, he might have been proud of being able to fight as the 'chief boxer' of the Hengyang branch.

but,

There are so many masters in this Hengyang martial arts selection competition. How easy is it to make it to the semi-finals?
Gong Li entrusted him with the important task of achieving good results, and he really felt overwhelmed.

What exactly happened?
Why was Chen Jie's qualification to participate in the competition suddenly cancelled?
Wasn't everything fine the past two days?

With Chen Jie, the real 'chief boxer' fighting, why is there a need for him to take the lead?

Choose to give up! ?
I really don’t know what Coach Gong is thinking?
We are all martial artists, and even if we are knocked down in the ring, we will never admit defeat!
This is the tactical thinking of elite martial arts schools and the highest concept of the path of martial arts.

And now, Gong Li actually asked others to adopt the tactical strategy of surrender.

It has to be said that in order to help everyone achieve good results, Gong Li went against everyone's long-held martial arts ideas.

It even goes against the belief of "never give up" that the elite martial arts school has always instilled in everyone.

As a result,
The four boxers felt very confused.

"This isn't called giving in, this is called a tactic!"

As a boxer, if you want to defeat your opponent, you have to rely on your perseverance, belief, tenacity and strength!

Rather than relying on any tactics!
However, Coach Gong Li is, after all, a "meritorious coach" sent by the headquarters, and he is also the team leader.

Fang Qiang and the other three boxers could only complain in their hearts.

Although Fang Qiang and others had trained at the headquarters for a period of time, they did not know Coach Gong Li's personality.

He didn't know if he would be retaliated against if he refuted the other party?

If I stand up to refute Coach Gong and he holds a grudge against me, my life will be difficult in the future.

Chen Jie is the 'chief boxer' of the Hengyang branch, but he was kicked out of the competition list!

No one knows what happened in between!
The four boxers could only listen to Gong Li's tactical explanation in silence, and no one dared to speak out in rebuttal.

The person who is most uneasy is Li Bin!

Originally, he was not qualified to compete in this city's martial arts trials, but now, Coach Gong kicked Chen Jie out of the list of participants and added him in.

For a while,
Li Bin is under tremendous pressure.

It seemed as if he had squeezed Chen Jie out.

The four boxers listened to Gong Li's commentary and nodded continuously, but in fact they all had their own thoughts in their hearts.

Gong Li analyzed various tactical plays eloquently.

at this time,

He saw that Fang Qiang and others were listening humbly and nodding continuously, and he felt very satisfied.

but,

When he looked up and didn't see Chen Jie.

this moment,
Gong Li couldn't help but snort in his heart.

Humph, it’s better if the ‘people with connections’ don’t come, so as to avoid making myself uncomfortable.

He didn't even attend the tactical arrangement meeting. I really don't understand Wang Chuxiong. Why would he let him participate in the competition?
Outrageous!

If the management of the Hengyang branch is not rectified, it will really be at the bottom.

If it weren't for the need to save face for Wang Chuxiong, the branch museum owner, Gong Li wouldn't even want to give Chen Jie the substitute spot.

How can a welterweight boxer be qualified to participate in an 'undiscriminatory' martial arts selection competition?
If it was a 'heavyweight match', it would be understandable to let him fight.

Nowadays, there is no "weight class"-indiscriminate fighting, and heavyweights have an absolute advantage.

Gong Li wanted to find out the relationship between Chen Jie and Wang Chuxiong several times.

To be honest, he even suspected that there was any relationship between Wang Chuxiong and Chen Jie.

Otherwise, there is no reason to allow a welterweight student to compete.

in fact,

In terms of the concept of Sanda fighting, Gong Li is indeed experienced, there is no doubt about that. His tactical arrangements, his "surrender" strategy in the group stage, and even his analysis of the characteristics of each martial arts school, etc.

All of this is crucial to whether the Hengyang branch can achieve excellent results.

Just like Fang Qiang, the No. 1 heavyweight player, if he encounters several top-ranked players in the group stage and chooses to "surrender", it will not affect his promotion.

but,

If we fight to the death with our opponents in the group stage.

Then,

Even if you can advance to the final round, it will be difficult to go further, let alone reach the final semi-finals.

The 128 participating boxers were divided into eight groups, with sixteen people in each group.

If you make it to the top four in the group stage, you will advance to the round of 32.

Therefore,
In the group stage, just make sure you can qualify. If you meet a master, don't fight to the death to avoid injury.

Although the strategy of 'surrendering' is different from the 'must win' philosophy of the elite martial arts school.

However, this is a key tactic to achieve good results.

"Tomorrow is the opening time of the Hengyang Martial Arts Trials. The specific grouping will be announced ten minutes before the opening ceremony."

"The goal given to us by headquarters is to get into the top three!"

"Fang Qiang, Wang Xilie, Zhang Tao, Li Bin, you all have to rest well tonight and conserve your energy. You must ensure that you are in the best condition for the battle tomorrow."

"Also, although grades are important, I'm more concerned about everyone's safety and not getting hurt!"

"Although our elite branch has a substitute spot, I don't want to use the substitute, understand?"

"—"

Ten minutes later.

Gong Li summarized his meeting:

"Okay, today's meeting ends here. I only have one request!"

"Top three! If you can make it to the top three, headquarters will give you generous rewards."

"And I'll have the opportunity to represent the headquarters and compete in the National Sanda Championship!"

in fact,

If it were in the past, with the comprehensive strength of the Hengyang branch, it would not be too difficult to make it into the top three.

But now the situation is completely different.

If we rank the individual boxers from major martial arts schools in Hengyang based on their comprehensive strength.

Fang Qiang, the top-ranked heavyweight boxer in the elite branch, can barely rank in the top five among all Hengyang heavyweight boxers!
Therefore,
If Fang Qiang wants to get into the top three, it’s not that he has no chance at all, but it depends on luck.

of course,

It is extremely difficult to reach the finals.

-

The next morning at 8:30!

The Hengyang Martial Arts Selection Competition officially opens.

All the students and disciples of the Elite Martial Arts School, led by team leader Gong Li and owner Wang Chuxiong, went to the sports center of Hengyang University Town.

Zhang Changming, Xu Dachi and other members of the coaching team all went together.

All students of the Elite Martial Arts School wore the same uniform with four big characters "Elite Martial Arts School" on it!
awesomeness!

When taking a group photo in front of the sports center gate, the four participating boxers stood in the C position, with team leader Gong Li in the middle.

Unfortunately, Chen Jie still didn't show up.

He, the substitute player, seemed to have been forgotten.

Early this morning, Wang Chuxiong called Chen Jie several times.

However, Chen Jie was busy in the morning handling the leasing procedures for the chemical plant and signing a contract with the security company.

I definitely don't have time to attend in the morning.

"well--!"

After hearing this, Wang Chuxiong could only sigh.

For some reason, Chen Jie was not at the scene, and he always felt uneasy.

It would be a joke if all four boxers from the Elite Martial Arts School were eliminated in the group stage.

At the opening ceremony,
The city leader delivered a speech that lasted for half an hour.

Then, next, the leader of the city martial arts association started chattering non-stop.

When everyone was about to doze off, the opening ceremony finally ended.

Ten o'clock in the morning!

The Hengyang martial arts trials officially begin.

The draw ceremony for the group stage has begun.

To ensure fairness, the draw will be made ten minutes before the match begins.

An electronic random draw will be used and the match list will be announced immediately.

There are eight groups, each with sixteen people, and they only need to rank in the top four in the points ranking to advance to the final round.

That is,

You must rank in the top four in your group to have a chance to advance.

The opening match was between a boxer from Yingjie Martial Arts School and a boxer from another martial arts school in Hengyang.

Both of them are heavyweight masters, but there is a big gap in their strength.

Thirty-five seconds, the opening battle is over!

This boxer from Yingjie Martial Arts School was soon remembered by everyone.

Wang Hao!

This boxing match allowed everyone to witness the strength of Yingjie Martial Arts School.

Next comes the second game, the third game, the fourth game——!
Inside the sports center, four boxing rings are fighting at the same time!
Fang Qiang from the Elite Martial Arts School had pretty good luck. In the first round of the group stage, he easily knocked out his opponent in less than a minute, thus getting off to a good start in the Elite branch.

Next,
Perhaps because Fang Qiang brought a good omen, the other three participating boxers had very good luck and all won the first round of the group stage.

After seeing this scene, Gong Li breathed a sigh of relief.

If they continue to fight like this, the four boxers from the Elite Martial Arts School will have a chance to advance to the final round of 32.

but,

I didn't have time to be happy yet.

In the second round, the four boxers from the Elite Martial Arts School encountered a strong challenge.

Fang Qiang VS Feng Gang from Yingjie Martial Arts School!
The opponent is too strong, give up!
Under Gong Li's tactical guidance, Fang Qiang chose to admit defeat.

To be honest, with Fang Qiang's overall combat power, he would not necessarily lose to Feng Gang if he fought head-on!
The strength of the two is equally matched!
Even in the comprehensive strength ranking of HY City, Fang Qiang is far ahead of Feng Gang.

but,

At Gong Li's request, in order to preserve his strength, Fang Qiang finally admitted defeat!

Once "giving up" becomes the core of tactics, it can easily spread and become a habit.

Wang Xilie encountered the same situation as Fang Qiang. His opponent was very strong. If he fought hard, even if he could win, it would be a miserable victory.

Therefore,
Wang Xilie admitted defeat, Zhang Tao admitted defeat, Li Bin admitted defeat——!
In the second round of four boxing matches, no one expected that the four boxers from the Elite Martial Arts School would all choose to admit defeat.

have to say,

As a boxer, once you have the thought of "giving up", your condition will plummet and you will lose your fighting spirit.

Until the sixth round!

The first day of boxing in the group stage is over.

None of the four boxers from the Elite Martial Arts School ranked among the top five in their respective groups!

When Wang Chuxiong saw the results of the first day of the group stage, he was furious.

If a martial artist loses the belief in victory and the tenacious fighting spirit, then there is no point in practicing martial arts. He might as well be a deliveryman!
Admit defeat! Admit defeat, damn!
Wang Chuxiong was so angry that he went home without even saying hello.

Zhang Changming, as the deputy gym leader, was also so angry that his face turned blue, and he almost had a big quarrel with Gong Li in the sports center.

This is the 'tactical' arrangement! ?

In fact, Gong Li was also very anxious.

He never expected that his luck in the group draw would be so bad.

The four boxers from the elite branch were all assigned to the 'death group'!
What is the 'Group of Death'?
When the team is not strong enough and it is difficult to advance, it is the 'group of death'.

For the truly strong ones, there is never any 'group of death'.

Tomorrow's group match is crucial and we must not give up again.

otherwise,

They will all be eliminated!
If all four boxers from the elite martial arts school were eliminated in the group stage.

Then,

Whether it is Gong Li, Wang Chuxiong or Zhang Changming, they will all become the laughing stock of the Elite Martial Arts School and feel ashamed.

Chen Jie rented a warehouse and went to "Lao He Gold and Silver Jewelry Store" to find He Xiaoyuan.

With 50,000 silver dollars at once, He Xiaoyuan was short of money and needed Chen Jie to invest.

When he got home, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

After washing up, he shook his head after seeing the results of the elite martial arts school.

Surrender tactics?

Why would such a tactic be adopted?
There is no hope for the elite martial arts school!

The situation is hopeless. Even if we try to fight tomorrow, I'm afraid it will be too late to turn the tide.

Elite Martial Arts School is located in HY City and is considered an old martial arts school.

Chen Jie chose to train in an elite martial arts school because he valued its foundation and comprehensive strength.

In this Hengyang Martial Arts Selection, if all four participating boxers from the Elite Martial Arts School are eliminated in the group stage.

Then,

Many students who practiced martial arts in Hengyang’s major martial arts schools and university towns were absolutely amazed.
