Chapter 159 Grand Concept (Subscription Request)

"Brother Feng, you've really screwed me over this time!"

As soon as Wu Feng returned to Shanghai Street, he was stopped by Guan Zaisen, who was limping and had a bruised face.

This guy was shameless. He almost hugged Wu Feng's thigh and cried bitterly, wailing about his misfortune. From time to time, he would stick out his bruised head and shake it.

It was as if all the serious blow he suffered was Wu Feng's fault.

Are you kidding me? Wu Feng doesn't want to be blackmailed.

"Brother Sen, that's enough!"

Wu Feng subconsciously took a few steps back and said unhappily, "It's just some superficial injuries. Don't act like you're going to die. Isn't that bad luck?"

As he said that, he turned around and ordered his close subordinate: "Go, get some ointment and oil for Brother Sen!"

Turning back to Guan Zaisen, he said, "This is a wonderful contraption developed by the old Chinese doctor I hired at great expense. It's very effective in removing blood stasis, loosening tendons and moistening bones!"

"Then I'm not welcome!"

Guan Zaisen was indeed not polite and took the goodies handed over by Wu Feng's subordinates.

There were a few small porcelain bottles, without any labels, but he knew what they were used for.

In fact, although he met He Yong from Dongxing, it was impossible for the other party to kill him.

Not to mention that the players themselves have protective gear, and since it is a live TV broadcast, they must hold back when necessary.

That's why Wu Feng said that although Guan Zaisen's injuries looked serious, most of them were just superficial injuries.

"Brother Feng, you dragged me into the Unlimited Fighting Tournament, but why did you arrange for me to face off against He Yong from Dongxing so early? Isn't that a waste of effort?"

Only then did Guan Zaisen regain his composure and said gloomily, "That guy's punches and kicks were really too powerful!"

He is a veteran in the industry, how could he not know the tricks behind arranging the contestants?

"There's no other way. The show needs a little excitement during the preliminaries!"

Wu Feng smiled and said, "It just so happens that you are the Liansheng Red Stick, and He Yong is the Dongxing Red Stick. Isn't this a hot topic? I believe the audience will love to watch it after knowing your identities!"

"Isn't this embarrassing for me?"

Guan Zaisen said depressedly: "My boss is so angry!"

"Who told you not to work out regularly?"

Wu Feng was not willing to tolerate this and sneered, "Before it was Kele, and now it's He Yong. Brother Sen, you didn't last long. Do you want me to help you increase the intensity of your training?"

"No need for this!"

Guan Zaisen shuddered with fear, as he had witnessed the intensity of Wu Feng's training.

If Wu Feng asked him to follow, wouldn't he be ruined?
"By the way, there's more than just you, Brother Sen, fighting with a red stick against Lian Sheng!"

Wu Feng said with a smile: "Big D from Tsuen Wan is still very capable. Didn't he pass the preliminaries easily?"

"There are also Oura Hei and Yu Toubiao, both of whom are top-notch red stick players like Lian Sheng. It's a pity that we couldn't invite them this time. Otherwise, you and Lian Sheng would still have strong players who could make it to the quarterfinals or even the semifinals!"

"Brother Feng, do you really look down on my strength?"

The more Guan Zai Sen listened, the darker his face grew, and his expression became more depressed. He said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "After all, I also helped contribute to the ratings. Even if I don't have any credit, I still worked hard!"

"Why, do you want any benefits?"

Wu Feng smiled and asked, "Tell me, what do you think, Brother Sen?"

"Brother Feng, please don't be angry when I tell you this!"

Guan Zaisen had taken precautions beforehand, so he said carefully, "My boss, Long Gen, wants to open an overseas market!"

:"no!"

Wu Feng flatly rejected it, saying in a cold tone, "At least in the first three sessions, no large foreign players will be allowed!"

At this point, his eyes were as cold as a knife, and he said sternly: "If you find anyone, I will kill them all. No mercy!"

Guan Zaisen was startled and waved his hands hurriedly, "The boss hasn't started yet. Didn't he ask me to come over and ask Brother Feng's opinion?"

"It better be so!"

Wu Feng's tone remained stern: "The Unlimited Fighting Tournament has just started. If there is any outside interference at this time, it will easily destroy the popularity that has been hard-earned, or even directly destroy the market!"

"Let me tell you, Boss Long Gen, once his popularity and heat have stabilized after three sessions, he can open an external market. I won't stop him!"

Just kidding, once the outside odds appear in the first competition, those high-quality players will easily be affected.

Anything could happen, even completely ending the game.

Once the audience notices the problem, they will not be polite to the organizers of the competition and will immediately abandon the competition.

Of course, simply blocking is not going to work!
Profits are attractive, and opening an overseas market is like picking up money!
Of course, this part of the profit comes from snatching food from the Hongxing gambling hall in Macau Island.

But people are greedy and Hong Kong people particularly like traffic jams, so it’s okay for ordinary citizens.

However, there are those who like to take shortcuts and want to get rich overnight. They are definitely not satisfied with the low odds offered by the Hongxing Ao Island gambling hall.

According to Wu Feng, no matter what player's odds, the payout would never exceed 1 to 1. This deprived many gamblers of the chance to "make a fortune," leading to the emergence of external betting platforms, which were impossible to gamble on.

Wu Feng understood this, and I think Guanzaisen’s boss Long Gen also understood this.

But Wu Feng had different ideas. He needed enough time to cultivate the market.

He has a lot of peripheral businesses to do around "Unlimited Fighting Tournament".

The simplest way is to sell the players' combat effectiveness posters. At least during the competition, the sales of star players' combat effectiveness posters will definitely not be low.

You can also tailor a complete set of sportswear, shoes, hats, and equipment, as well as Q-version dolls, based on the star player's appearance, figure, and temperament.

There are many such things in later generations, such as sportswear printed with portraits or names of celebrity players.

There are also sports shoes and socks named after star players, as well as small accessories such as wristbands and headbands.

Wu Feng has greater ambitions and his ideas are more imaginative.

He also wants to find a screenwriter to create a comic called "Ong-Bak" based on the star players of the competition.

You can use a single star player as the protagonist of the story, or you can use "Unlimited Fighting Tournament" as a link to bring together all the star players.

Is there an inexplicable sense of familiarity?
That’s right, it’s about creating a comic or even a novel series based on the model of “Street Fighter” and “The King of Fighters” in the future.

Finally, an arcade fighting game named "Ong-Bak" was launched!

At this time, the first "Street Fighter" game had already come out, but unfortunately the production was too crude and it was not popular in the market, which means it failed.

It was not until the 1990s when the second part of Street Fighter came out that this classic arcade game became completely popular. Wu Feng wanted to take advantage of the time difference.

It just so happens that the "Ong-Bak" game is set in the "Unlimited Fighting Tournament" and each star player has his or her own fighting style, and with just a slight adaptation, they can become one of the fighting players in the game.

The first Ong-Bak game didn't require any gas or anything like that. As long as the fighting was realistic and the visual clarity reached a certain level, it would definitely be a hit.

By then, those star players will be able to easily earn millions of Hong Kong dollars just by relying on the share of image rights.

If Wu Feng's plan can be completed in full, or even just 70 to 80 percent, it will be enough to make the "Unlimited Fighting Tournament" the most popular sports event in Hong Kong Island every year.

Star players will have very generous incomes and there is no need for them to get involved in external betting to make money.

As long as the star player is kept stable, it doesn’t matter whether the other contestants participate in the external market or not!
Because ordinary players have average strength and fame, they can't cause much trouble at all.

Having said that, if a contestant really has confidence in himself, it is even less likely that he would bring a stain upon himself so early on.

At that time, some clubs or gangs might as well train a star player. By then, they would probably be able to earn more, and it would be legitimate money.

Wu Feng naturally would not tell others about these considerations!
Who knows, by the end of the third competition, the "Unlimited Fighting Tournament" may have become a huge business worth hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Who knows what the situation will be like by then?
Guan Zaisen had no idea that Wu Feng had thought so much in such a short time. He heaved a long sigh of relief and said lightly, "Brother Feng, as long as you have an accurate answer, it's fine. I'm afraid that you won't have any answer at all!"

"Don't worry, I know what's going on!"

Wu Feng said unhappily, "Given the nature of Hong Kong people, how can they completely close the loophole?"

Guan Zaisen chuckled, probably thinking the same thing in his heart.

"Okay, okay, if you have nothing else to do, just get out of here!"

Wu Feng waved his hands with a look of disgust, and said unhappily: "Looking at your bruised and swollen pig face, I don't think I can even eat. Stop being an eyesore here!"

Guan Zaisen immediately looked sad, waved his hand and ran away in shame.

I don’t know whether He Yong of Dongxing did it on purpose, but in any case, Guan Zaisen’s appearance at this time really affects the appearance, and it might scare children when he goes out at night.

However, Guan Zaisen's test also reminded Wu Feng.

He immediately called Jiang Tiansheng and asked him to help pass the message to other first-class societies.

The first three editions of the "Unlimited Fighting Tournament" must not be played with external players, otherwise the Hongxing side will definitely not tolerate it.

This is related to the stable income of the community in Macau Island Gambling Hall, and Jiang Tiansheng cannot ignore it!

Even the other leaders of the society would not allow the interests belonging to the society to be taken away by other societies.

By then, it is estimated that a war between the clubs will really begin, which is not an exaggeration at all.

Even a fool knows that as long as the popularity of the "Unlimited Fighting Tournament" continues, even if it is only the first session, the revenue of the Hongxing Ao Island Casino will be at least tens of millions.

It is certainly not as good as football, but it is a new source of income developed by our brothers.

Aren’t the people who benefited in the end the top leaders of the society?
Soon, Long Gen, the leader of the Mong Kok Hall with Lian Sheng, obtained the accurate information that Guan Zaisen had found out.

"Hey, I didn't expect Wu Feng to be so understanding. It won't be too late to deal with it next year!"

Long Gen chuckled and was going to give Wu Feng this face, mainly because he didn't want to make trouble.

He and his boss Guan Zaisen live a comfortable life and don't want any troubles to happen around them.

Wu Feng is the God of Wealth in their eyes, so naturally they would not offend him easily.

In order to avoid trouble, he even called his uncle in the society and the hall master with whom he had a good relationship to convey Wu Feng's intentions.

In short, the point is: Wu Feng is indebted to He Liansheng, and we must give him face within a reasonable range, so everyone should not make trouble.
