143 The Trap That Moves People
Listening to Zhou Wenqiang's story, Jin Yong gradually became immersed in happiness.
From the suspicion at the beginning to the inexplicable touch, if it weren't for the telephone line, Jin Yong would probably be unable to suppress the enthusiasm that was about to burst out. He would have held Zhou Wenqiang's hand tightly. 'Brother, fate!'
Jin Yong, who is still a young fox, is still easily impressed, especially when he saw Zhou Wenqiang, who was "full of naughty" from this "bet agreement", he even blushed a little, feeling that he was too bullying?
Zhou Sheng, when facing a field that you are not familiar with, you are too lazy, which will inevitably lead to your miserable defeat!
Let’s take a look at the content of this agreement! Jin Yong squinted his eyes and couldn’t help laughing out many times...
Zhou Wenqiang will invest 15,000 Hong Kong dollars, but he only needs to invest 3,000 yuan. Within three months of the initial establishment of the newspaper, he will decide everything!
Two months later, it will be decided depending on the result of the bet. The winning party will receive 60% of the shares, while the losing party will receive 40% of the shares. The losing party must sign a "excluding competition clause" to ensure that the shares are not allowed to be reselled within ten years and leave the newspaper.
Although you can leave in ten years, you still need to ensure that you are not allowed to engage in any job in the same industry within five years. That is to say, the loser will bet on the next fifteen years!
When he first saw the content of the agreement, Jin Yong felt a little disgusted because according to this clause, if he loses, he will have to "work" for Zhou Wenqiang for at least ten years.
But when he saw the content of the betting, Jin Yong knew that his worries were completely unnecessary. As expected, he guessed that no matter how powerful Zhou Wenqiang was, he was just in the world and in the newspaper circle... Sorry, Zhou Sheng, you are really just a primary school student.
What does it mean that the average daily sales of newspapers must not be less than 5,000 copies within three months of betting? And within three months, the daily sales of newspapers must reach the top ten in Hong Kong newspaper sales more than three times. Only when I win the daily sales championship can someone win?
Zhou Sheng, do you think it is very difficult to do these things?
It seems that this is true on the surface. Now there are many Hong Kong Island tabloids who can exceed 3,000 daily sales. If they want to enter the top ten daily sales, they will be simply an unsuccessful task? But that's just for those ordinary tabloids!
My name is Cha Liangyong!
Either I don’t do it, just make up my mind to make a newspaper? From the beginning, I will take the lead in the big newspaper route!
Daily sales of 5,000? As long as you study the situation of the Hong Kong newspaper industry over the past year, you will know that? The sales of 5,000 half a year ago may be considered excellent. Today, for a big newspaper, this is just a basic operation!
I don’t even have to throw out the powerful tool of novel serialization, so I can increase the average daily sales of newspapers to more than 5,000 in one month? As for the top ten daily sales three times? If I can’t achieve this goal within three months? Check if someone will never make a newspaper!
Jin Yong was full of confidence in his first martial arts novel that he had conceived for many days. He believed that once this new martial arts novel that swept away the old martial arts literature and sluggish plots and other "bad habits" were published, it would definitely cause a sensation. Just a Japanese champion? It was simply his favorite!
This is the confidence of a generation of martial arts masters? In Jin Yong's opinion, this so-called "betting agreement" is completely something that Zhou Wenqiang, an outsider, took it for granted, and it was like it was tailor-made for him.
According to this betting agreement, Zhou Wenqiang was a sucker and gave him a newspaper in vain.
If you still hesitate in the face of such a betting agreement, Jin Yong would even doubt his IQ.
"Zhou Sheng? Although this betting agreement has too high requirements for me, it actually requires an average daily sales of 5,000 copies. I have to reach the top ten daily sales of all newspapers in Hong Kong Island three times. I will win the daily sales championship. It seems to be unfair to me? But who made me and Zhou Sheng get along? Even if I suffer a little loss, I agree."
Jin Yong sighed and said, "There is no way... What if I really lose? I'll be Zhou Sheng's worker."
Zhou Wenqiang smiled and said, "I knew Mr. Cha would agree? As Mr. Cha said, we are destined to do so."
"So this way, Mr. Cha. After I passed the 'Daoshan' challenge for my senior brother Ip Man, we went to the law firm to ask a lawyer to witness it and signed this bet agreement. Others such as newspaper articles and equity agreements are also asked to handle the most professionals."
"After signing the agreement, my investment will come as soon as possible. Before this, Mr. Cha can start to prepare all the matters of establishing a newspaper. You are an expert in this regard, so I don't have to worry about it. By the way, Mr. Cha, what name should we set for this newspaper?"
Jin Yong said without thinking: "It's called "Ming Pao". It has the meaning of enlightenment and enlightenment, and it also has the meaning of the world being dark and I am the only one who is clear. What do Zhou Sheng thinks?"
Obviously, this is a name he had thought of long ago.
Zhou Wenqiang smiled and said, "The name is good, it's it!"
"Okay! Zhou Sheng, leave everything to me, so let me know!"
Jin Yong on the other side of the phone flew and waved his fists hard in the air.
At this moment, he felt full of strength in his body, because from today on, he would work hard for the newspaper of "his own"!
As for Zhou Wenqiang... Jin Yong never thought that he would lose. He would not lose to an outsider. Even if this outsider is a tiger, the king of hell, the lord of the city, and when he reaches the newspaper industry, he will lose to him Cha Liangyong!
After finishing the call with Jin Yong, Zhou Wenqiang immediately called Beiwang Company, and the one who answered the call was lard.
At present, Beiwang Company has expanded its recruitment of many clerks, but Zhou Wenqiang has not found a suitable secretary yet. He can only call the general manager's office if he has something to do. After being transferred to the island in Leiluo, he was even more responsible and could find him at almost any time.
"Ayou, I need a typist, who requires fast typing speed and low error rate. Also, I will help me buy a state-of-the-art typewriter and get it done as soon as possible."
"Okay boss, I'll do it right now!"
The lard put down the phone and was a little confused.
What does the boss do if he wants a typist and a typewriter for no reason? It seems that the current business of Beiwang Company does not need a typist, right?
Forget it, no matter what he is. We will do whatever the boss explains. This is the value of the existence of a small person like me!
"Old Jin is so confident that he only relies on the book "The Book and Sword of Revenge". This book is one of the representative works of the new martial arts, but it is also popular because of the 'No Heroes'. It is not difficult to defeat it."
"The difficulty lies in which book should I choose to fight against "Book and Sword"? You can't be too careless, nor do you want to kill a chicken with a ox knife. It's very hard..."
If Jin Yong knew that Zhou Wenqiang's biggest trouble was that there were too many good books in his head, he would probably vomit three liters of blood.
With Zhou Wenqiang's current master-level novel writing ability, he can definitely present these sensational masterpieces exactly, and even add icing on the cake and sublimate it. How can I fight this?
***
When dealing with literati like Jin Yong, you must use better works to conquer him, and when dealing with these warriors from the Hong Kong and Kowloons, there is nothing else, but the true meaning is revealed in your fists.
Zhou Wenqiang's "war post" was released, and the Hong Kong and Kowloon National Arts Association was all outraged from Hong Zhennan.
Wing Chun is so rampant!
If I follow Ip Man's approach, I will first ask Wu Zhong, Baihemen, to contact the Hong Kong Kowloon Sword Association, and then Hong Zhennan will take the lead in convening the heads of various sects. The martial arts hall master set up the "Daoshan" to invite Ip Man. This is considered to be the Ip Man worshipping the mountain hall. The National Sword Association is the main one, and Ip Man is the guest.
But by Zhou Wenqiang's initiative, he became the leader of various sects. That was not a mountain hall, but a mountain gate and a play, which turned him into Zhou Wenqiang's turn!
The difference is big!
Moreover, Zhou Wenqiang took the initiative to challenge the "weak" side, and the martial arts world in Hong Kong and Kowloon must follow the story, otherwise everyone will be embarrassed and will not have to make a living in Hong Kong and Kowloon in the future. Not to mention opening a martial arts club, changing careers and being a bodyguard will be questioned by the employer.
It's unbearable!
Zhou Wenqiang was simply poking a hornet's nest.
So on the day of challenging "Blade Mountain", the first floor of the largest "Huachuntang" restaurant on Danan Street was directly booked by the National Shu Association. In addition to the Hongquan, Bagua, Dasheng Pigua, Xing Accident that originally appeared in the movie, Tai Chi, Mantis, Cai Lifo, Wuzhi, Niujiao, Qinrou and other dozens of sects. Basically, the martial arts sects on Danan Street have arrived, and some boxing species distributed in various districts of Hong Kong and Kowloon also came to participate in this grand event.
The mood of various Chinese martial arts masters is very complicated.
They are also considered people from the martial arts world. Of course, they have heard of Zhou Wenqiang's reputation. They are not only big bosses, but also new stars. They have achieved Sha Zhan at a young age. They have also eliminated several gangsters in succession as soon as they debuted. Even the Jiulong City Walled City was dealt with by him. Their fierce methods are eye-catching.
You said you are your servant, isn’t it good for the boss? Why did you learn Wing Chun if you have nothing to do? And you even became Ip Man’s junior brother?
But Wing Chun is still a small boxing class that has just arrived in Hong Kong. She is a sect that is deeply discriminated against by them. She has not even passed the "Daoshan" challenge and is currently not qualified to officially open a building in Hong Kong!
In their opinion, Zhou Wenqiang's attempt to do this is like crossing the boundaries and making trouble for nothing.
However, the name of a person and the shadow of a tree, Zhou Wenqiang walked into the 'Huachun Hall' and rushed to the dozen or so leaders present and clasped their fists: "Everyone, Wing Chun Zhou Wenqiang, come and experience it today!" Everyone still stood up and bowed.
This is not to give Wing Chun face, it really makes me unable to afford to offend the police, especially Zhou Wenqiang, who has a rank and can summon more than a dozen guns at any time.
Martial arts always rely on kung fu to distinguish between the top and bottom of the world, and then talk about how to be a human being and how prestige is. Now the two masters of the Hong Kong and Kowloon Master Hong Zhennan and Bai He master Wu Zhong, who serve as chief and vice presidents respectively. The two are only one-line away from the peak masters like Gong Er in terms of kung fu.
Hong Zhennan is the president, and he first spoke: "Haha, after taking the post, I realized that Wing Chun Zhou Wenqiang was Zhou Shazhan, who was so powerful that Hong Kong and Jiujiang River, and Boss Zhou, but Hong was very surprised, when did Zhou Shazhan join Wing Chun?"
"Don't get me wrong. Hong said that joining Wing Chun is just a recent incident, but his true identity is a policeman. Wing Chun is going to establish a museum on Hong Kong Island to challenge the 'Daoshan'. Why didn't Ip Man come?"
The masters of various sects nodded and followed, "That's right, how can you make your junior brother stand up?" Are you all Wing Chun the masters? What a joke!"
The national martial arts world is also the ancient "martial arts world", with greater rules than the sky.
Disciples can set up a pole for the elderly master at critical moments, but it is insurmountable between the masters and brothers.
That is to say, the master is old and his atmosphere is declining, so he can let his disciples come forward to deal with various challenges. After all, boxing is afraid of being strong, so there is no reason to let the white-haired master take action.
But if all the senior brothers are there, then the senior brother should come forward, unless you are the junior brother of the head!
Hong Zhennan knew that Zhou Wenqiang was not easy to mess with. The key was that he had an official position. Who would like to provoke such "eagle claw grandson" for no reason?
He also knew that Zhou Wenqiang had just joined Wing Chun and came to challenge "Daoshan". He was probably because of his ulterior motives, so he deliberately froze Zhou Wenqiang, gave him a soft nail, and finally forced Ip Man to show up.
"Haha, President Hong's words are unreasonable! Since I entered the 'Hua Chun Hall' today, I am no longer a messenger, but just a member of Wing Chun! As for my senior brother Ip Man... President Hong asked knowingly, right?"
"Who doesn't know how many months my senior brother has only arrived in Hong Kong? When he was in Foshan, he was persecuted by the Neon Army. He was hungry every day and had to do heavy work. Later, he competed with the Neon General Miura. Although he won, he was shot by the Neon Army!"
"So far, my senior brother's body has not recovered. Gunshot injuries often occur. Is it fair for him to challenge "Daoshan". "Does President Hong think this is fair?"
"Or, even if the anti-Japanese heroes like my senior brother have not recovered, they will risk their failure to challenge them, so that they can defeat him easily and make him unable to even eat?"
Hong Zhennan was stunned and didn't know how to refute it for a moment.
He didn't expect that Ip Man was still a hero in anti-Japanese war, so it was difficult to deal with. Which one of the people present hated the Neon Kingdom? Ip Man had taken over the national justice.
Sure enough, the masters of all sects nodded secretly. If I was really shot by Neon Devils and his injuries were not healed, then Zhou Wenqiang would not have violated the rules if he appeared on behalf of his senior brother.
Seeing this, Wu Zhong smiled and said, "President Hong, I blame me for not explaining it in advance. When I was discussing with Ye Wen and I closed the door that day, I found that although he was skillful in boxing, he had uneven breaths. Later, I also conducted an investigation. What Zhou Shazhan said was indeed correct. It was true that I was injured in the fight against the Japanese and had gunshot wounds."
Hong Zhennan glanced at him and nodded, "Since that's the case, Hong has nothing to say. Master Zhou, please come to the stage!"
"According to the rules of 'Daoshan', Master Zhou must stand on the table and accept challenges from various factions one by one, insisting that a stick of incense should not fall under the stage, or knock the other party down within that time, even if you pass the test, otherwise, it will be a failure of the challenge."
"Master Zhou, do you have any objection?"
Since he admitted that Zhou Wenqiang was qualified to represent Wing Chun, he no longer called Zhou Shazhan or Boss Zhou, but instead called him Master Zhou, meaning that from now on, everything will follow the rules of the national martial arts world.
“No objection.”
