When you do everything to the extreme

Chapter 57 57. Spread across the entire network, shocking popularity! Wardy's ultimate means of stopping Wang Xiao!
All domestic media, including entertainment media, want to interview Wang Xiao.

But so far, most people have not been able to contact Wang Xiao at all, and those who contacted him through the Shanghai Athletics Association were also called back.

Only Liang Bing got the opportunity to interview Wang Xiao.

and so!
As soon as her recording was released, it caused an uproar among her fellow journalists.

Originally, this was the only exclusive interview with Wang Xiao!

And Wang Xiao’s golden sentences in the interview were even more explosive.

"This bet is no joke!"

"I just want to show everyone that I can not only make it into the top ten, I can also win the championship."

"A game that is sure to win is not a gamble."

"I'm here to win the championship. If I don't win, I'm a failure."

"You can send out what I said right away..."

Each sentence was filled with confidence and domineering tone, which shocked many media reporters.

They have been journalists for many years. What kind of people have they not seen?
However, like Liang Bing, this was the first time they had seen an athlete so confident in the media before the game.

This is no longer confidence, it can be said to be arrogance.

"Bingbing, you got some big news this time! That's awesome! Thanks for sharing! I'll post it right away, and I'll be sure to credit the source."

"Wow, Bingbing's connections are amazing! She even managed to get an exclusive interview with Wang Xiao, and it's such a sensational one, too! Amazing!"

“This wave of traffic is going to explode.”

"I'll share it right away. Thanks Bingbing for sharing..."

……

Liang Bing didn't say anything else, but quickly sent it to his editor-in-chief, asking him to publish it immediately and not be slower than others.

Seeing the excitement of her colleagues in the group, Liang Bing took a deep breath and whispered, "Wang Xiao, I'll help you take a gamble! Now, send it to as many media outlets as possible and maximize the influence. If you really win the championship in the end, you will soar to the sky."

Before this, Wang Xiao had no reputation in the country or the world.

It was only after winning the championship in Shanghai that they gained some fame and were hyped up by the media, with foreign media also leading the charge.

However, its popularity is still not high.

Because Wang Xiao has never appeared on camera, has never been interviewed by the media, and was not trained within the system, so everyone just reported it briefly and it was over.

This time, Wang Xiao has his own traffic, and the content of this exclusive interview is indeed explosive.

The heat will absolutely explode.

really.

Not a moment later.

Zhang Jun had just gotten off the bus and found his spot at the finish line, waiting to watch Wang Xiao's final sprint, when he heard Sun Li hurriedly say, "Director Zhang, check the news! Liang Bing released the pre-race interview with Master Wang, and every media outlet online is reposting it, instantly becoming the number one trending search!"

Zhang Jun was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed slightly. He said in a deep voice, "What is Liang Bing doing? Why didn't you discuss such an important matter with us?"

The talent and strength displayed by Wang Xiao at this time made Zhang Jun mentally prepared. As long as Wang Xiao could finally make it into the top five, he would spare no effort to keep Wang Xiao qualified to participate in future competitions. With more training and development, Wang Xiao would definitely have a chance to compete for the world championship.

But now that Liang Bing has released the interview ahead of time, things are no longer under his control.

It can be said that every word Wang Xiao said in the interview was golden, and he left himself no way out.

If Wang Xiao fails to win the championship, no one will be able to save him, not even the Athletics Administration Center.

As soon as Zhang Jun opened his phone, he saw the first headline of the popular news push was explosive - Wang Xiao: A game that is sure to win is not a gamble!
The headlines of reports in other media also quoted Wang Xiao's words.

"If you don't win, you fail!"

"He's betting, I'm not betting!"

Wait for the explosive title.

Sun Hong, Sun Li and others watched it and went in to play Wang Xiao's recording with great interest.

Although, they were all present at the time of the interview.

but……

At this time, they were also intrigued by the media headlines and couldn't help but play it and listen to it. After listening to it, they still felt it was awesome and very enjoyable.

This shows that many other passers-by will definitely listen to this interview recording.

It would be strange if this popularity didn't top the trending searches.

Many media and audiences at the scene also lowered their heads to look at their phones at this time. Obviously, they were all overwhelmed by this sudden blockbuster news. They clicked to watch and then started discussing it enthusiastically.

"Fuck, so confident, saying something like this before the game?"

"Is it real? Could it be synthetic? This is too crazy."

"To be frank, I think it's better to be low-key and humble."

"If we don't win the championship, wouldn't that be a huge slap in our face?"

"Haha, grandstanding! Look at his current ranking. Although he's up to sixth, it's still only sixth. It's still very difficult for him to win the championship."

"He just sped up for a bit. He'll be lucky to have the stamina to maintain his current ranking in the next few kilometers. He even wants to win? Haha..."

"I support Wang Xiao. Even if he can only finish sixth, he'll still be the fastest among all the Chinese half-marathon runners. At least he's surpassed Xiao Rizi."

……

Most of the audience were sarcastic. After all, Wang Xiao's words were too confident and too strong. In the eyes of most people, they were a bit pretentious, so naturally they would not tolerate him.

Who on the Internet wants to see others showing off? Unless they are really awesome, few people will tolerate such show-offs.

However, there are also many people who support Wang Xiao.

after all.

Wang Xiao is the fastest runner among all the Chinese athletes participating in this competition, and has surpassed the Japanese athlete Morita Hiroshi.

Xie Lei, Zhang Dongxuan and others behind are still struggling outside the top ten, and the possibility of them breaking into the top ten is very slim.

It would be amazing if Wang Xiao could maintain his current sixth place ranking and run to the finish line.

but……

Who made Wang Xiao say in the recording that not winning the championship is a failure?

At this time.

The host shouted again, "Here they come! After Wang Xiao passed Morita Hiro, he stabilized his pace and is now finally accelerating. He's about to pass Warddy, who's in fifth place. Warddy saw him and looked shocked."

"Hahaha, you never thought that Wang Xiao would catch up with us again!"

"Then Wardy suddenly accelerated. He didn't want Wang Xiao to overtake him."

"We know that there is a bet between the two of them. Player Wardy will definitely not let himself lose to Wang Xiao, and the two players accelerated at the same time to compete. This is an extremely rare scene in full and half marathon competitions around the world." The host's loud commentary once again shifted most people's attention from media reports back to the live competition.

Most of the Chinese audiences became excited. No matter how arrogant and pretentious Wang Xiao spoke, he was still a Chinese athlete after all, and at this moment, he was also the fastest Chinese athlete. They had to support him.

"Wang Xiao, come on!"

"Wang Xiao, come on!"

"Wang Xiao, come on..."

……

Li Bowen, who was in the crowd, also raised his hand and cheered loudly, saying proudly to the man and woman beside him, "See? That's my master from Shanghai, Wang Xiao! He's going to win the championship."

The two young people, a man and a woman, smiled politely, then looked at the figure on the big screen curiously, without joining in the cheers.

The young woman smiled and asked, "Is this Wang Xiao, the descendant of the Wang family's Liuhe clan?"

The young man nodded. "Yes, I heard that his martial arts school is so poor that it can't pay the rent. He can only participate in competitions to compete for the championship prize money to pay the rent!"

After hearing this, Li Bowen hurriedly said, "Hey, don't talk nonsense. The martial arts school can't pay the rent. It has nothing to do with my master's strength. It's because no one knows his stuff!"

The two did not refute, but just nodded and acknowledged Li Bowen's words.

They also know that it is difficult for traditional martial arts gyms to survive in the market now.

If it operates like other fighting clubs and fitness clubs, it would be normal for a traditional martial arts boxing gym to be unable to pay the rent.

Other large traditional martial arts schools take a different path. They do not target the majority of ordinary people, but rely on fame and reputation to attract high-end customers.

For example, Li Chenyou, who was accepted by the Shanghai Li family, contributed hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue to the Li family, which is more than the income of many fighting clubs.

Not to mention, later on, Li Chenyou taught martial arts privately and was labeled a traitor by the Li family, and he had to pay Li family 1 billion in compensation!

And there must be more than one disciple like Li Chenyou in the Li family.

Therefore, those large traditional martial arts schools are not short of money at all. They open martial arts schools just to have a martial arts school sign outside for everyone to see, rather than to recruit ordinary members to earn membership fees of one or two thousand yuan a year.

……

On the track five kilometers away from the finish line.

Yang Xiaoyu was still riding her bicycle slowly beside him, most of her attention still focused on Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao was still running seriously on the track and had already been running parallel to Wardy for dozens of meters.

Wardy gritted his teeth and persevered. Together, the two of them had already surpassed the fourth-placed athlete and were approaching the third-placed athlete!

"Shet!"

Wardy cursed in his heart, but did not dare to say a word, for fear that he would lose his temper as soon as he opened his mouth, disrupting his breathing and running rhythm, and then he would be quickly overtaken by Wang Xiao and would be completely unable to catch up.

He had no idea how Wang Xiao broke through the blockade of seven or eight people. He didn't see Wang Xiao appear until Wang Xiao was about to overtake him.

When Wang Xiao wanted to overtake him, he used all his strength to maintain and keep up with Wang Xiao's speed. He must not be overtaken by Wang Xiao!

woohoo hoo...

Wang Xiao's breathing remained steady and rhythmic.

However, Woody's breathing was as heavy as pulling a bellows.

The sudden acceleration caused Wardy's physical strength to be rapidly depleted and disrupted his rhythm.

However, he had to persevere, so he consumed more physical energy.

The two of them maintained this speed, ran a distance of 100 meters together, and slowly overtook the third person.

Now the two are almost tied for third place. There are only two people ahead of them, Paka in first and Sales in second, and the distance between them is only a dozen meters!

Wardy glared at Wang Xiao fiercely, gritted his teeth and continued to persevere, staring intently at Paka and Sells in front of him, hoping that the two would speed up now and not let Wang Xiao overtake.

But Wang Xiao didn't look at Wang Xiao, still maintaining the rhythm, slowly approaching Paka and Sales in front.

Now there are only four kilometers to the finish line.

In Wang Xiao's mind, now is the time to decide the winner.

Whirring whirring……

"Long-distance running experience +1."

"Long-distance running experience +1."

"Long-distance running experience +1."

……

"Bounce Kick Experience Points +1."

……

"Liuhequan experience points +."

Following Wang Xiao's breathing and steps, the information on the panel never stopped.

A large amount of long-distance running experience points appear, a small amount of kick-bouncing experience points appear, and even fewer Liuhequan experience points appear.

Paka and Sells in front had obviously noticed Wang Xiao chasing after them.

So, the two of them really did as Wardy thought, and began to accelerate slowly, not wanting to be overtaken by Wang Xiao in the last few kilometers.

but……

Seeing that the two men had accelerated, Wang Xiao slowly increased the strength of his kicks, made his steps a little bigger, and increased his speed a little more, slowly approaching Paka and Sales again.

Wardy, who was following Wang Xiao, couldn't hold on any longer. He couldn't speed up anymore, otherwise his physical strength might be quickly consumed, and he would not be able to finish the run and would be left behind by Wang Xiao.

However, he could not bear to watch Wang Xiao overtake Paka and Sales in the final few kilometers of the sprint.

If Wang Xiao really won the championship, he couldn't imagine what would happen to him.

and so!
Wodi's eyes flashed with viciousness, he gritted his teeth, and suddenly his body burst out with the last of his physical strength, and he directly crashed into Wang Xiao who was one meter away.

Since he couldn't outrun Wang Xiao, Wardy used his last resort. Just like the previous bet, he once again used his career to stop Wang Xiao's career.

The onlookers on both sides of the road exclaimed in surprise.

The host at the finish line also shouted again: "What happened to Wardy? Why did he fall down suddenly? He was about to hit Wang Xiao. Did he do it on purpose?"

In a hurry, the host directly stated his guess.

Generally speaking, the host will not make malicious guesses about the athletes, as that is not conducive to promoting the spirit of sports.

But at this time, everyone could guess that Wardy must have deliberately bumped into Wang Xiao to prevent Wang Xiao from surpassing Paka and Sales to win the championship.

All the spectators gathered at the finish line suddenly became quiet, staring at the scene with wide eyes.

If Wang Xiao was knocked to the ground by Wardy at this time, he would have no hope of winning the championship.
