Chapter 346 Iron Shirt Performance

At this time, Charles Buckle and the other two had already announced that Kung Fu King He Zhongqiu would soon perform a piece of hard Qigong.

“What is hard qigong?”

"I don't know, but Wolverine will definitely not let us down."

"Yes, I'm sure it will be wonderful."

The fans didn't know what hard qigong was and started to speculate.

"Clap clap clap..."

"Wolverine……"

"Kung Fu King..."

He Zhongqiu came to the scene again, and Madison Square Garden immediately burst into loud applause and cheers.

At this time, Loshua Daley got three wooden sticks as thick as wrists and six baseball bats.

"Oh, I see. Wolverine is going to show off his iron shirt."

"God, is he going to hit himself with a baseball bat this big?"

After seeing this, many fans were reminded of the video of He Zhongqiu practicing iron shirt with a wooden man, which was shot by Zhang Heli and others.

"I know what Wolverine wants to do, and I'll be the first to do it this time."

Arnold was the first to rush up, grabbed a baseball bat, and laughed.

"I'm second." Tom Cruise also grabbed a club.

Jordan is the third one, baseball is his favorite sport.

Dwayne Johnson only grabbed a wooden stick, but he didn't complain. If he was a second later, he would have lost it.

"Give it to me, Rashid, and I'll buy you some candy tomorrow."

"Go away, this is mine."

O'Neal didn't grab the stick, but Rasheed Wallace got it and the two started fighting over it.

David Stern took one look and immediately said, "Players, step down. This is not your show. Let the guests take over."

O'Neal was not convinced, but since the president had spoken, there was nothing he could do.

Rasheed Wallace had no choice but to give up. A thin girl and a short girl next to him immediately rushed up and started fighting for it.

"Hey, I got it first."

Taylor Swift stared at Scarlett Johansson who was snatching the stick from her and said angrily.

"Who are you?" Scarlett Johansson said disdainfully.

"I'm a singer, my name is Taylor Swift." Swift said her name loudly.

"Never heard of it." Scarlett Johansson sneered.

"What are you robbing? Do you want to hit me so much?" He Zhongqiu came over and asked.

"Uh, forget it, I don't want it." Scarlett Johansson quickly let go of her hand.

"I don't want it either."

Swift threw the stick on the ground and said excitedly: “Wolverine, my name is Taylor Swift and I’m your fan.

I wrote a song for you called Legend of Wolverine, it’s really good, I want to make a single out of it, and I want your permission…”

Before she finished her words, He Zhongqiu left after saying "sorry", which made her so angry that she muttered, "Wolverine, I'm going to write another song for you, and the name is, Wolverine, who are you?"

"Damn it, who took my stick?"

She wanted to pick up the stick she had just thrown, but found that it had disappeared.

"Wolverine, we're ready." Arnold shouted, waving the baseball bat in his hand.

"Do you want to beat me so badly?"

He Zhongqiu looked at the nine guys holding wooden baseball bats, all of them with excited looks on their faces, and his eyes couldn't help but twitch.

Of these nine guys, except Jordan, the other eight are all Hollywood's first-line or top stars, including Arnold, Stallone, Johnson, Statham, Tom Cruise and so on.

"Wait a moment."

He began to circulate his energy and blood, and inside his clothes, his body quickly swelled up, becoming one size larger.

The Iron Shirt is actually the internal Vajra technique. Those who have not received the true internal teachings are practicing the external hard Qigong, which trains the muscles, bones and skin externally. Those who have received the true teachings are practicing the internal Vajra technique, which not only trains the muscles, bones and skin externally, but also trains the breath internally.

Now his Iron Shirt is about to be completed. He is only twenty points away from three thousand proficiency points. He can definitely be promoted within a month.

Buckley came up and asked, "Wolverine, what is hard qigong?"

He said casually: "Oh, it's just like practicing Muay Thai, which makes the bones experience repeated fractures and fractures, and then they will become harder after repeated healing.

For example, when a tree is injured, it will form scars, and those scars are the hardest parts of the tree. The same is true for hard qigong. "

"Oh!"

Barkley seemed to understand and nodded repeatedly.

"Can I practice hard qigong?" Kenny Smith asked.

"Everyone can do it. If you break your bones ten times, your bones will become as hard as mine," said He Zhongqiu.

Kenny Smith's face twitched, and he said hurriedly, "Forget it then."

He Zhongqiu took off his tight T-shirt, and Kenny Smith quickly took it over.

"Shit! Wolverine, you seem to have grown a size bigger? Even your neck has gotten bigger." Magic Johnson cursed.

"Don't make a fuss. It's because my muscles have expanded," said He Zhongqiu.

"Haha..." The three commentators laughed.

"Can you please stop talking so much? My hands are sore." Arnold had been holding up the stick for a long time and now urged.

He Zhongqiu shouted: "Except for the eyes, genitals, temples, neck, back of the head, toes and other places, the rest are up to you."

Then he took a horse stance, stretched out his arms and shouted, "Come on!"

"I come!"

Arnold walked to the left side of He Zhongqiu.

"Snapped!"

He didn't dare to use his full strength for fear of hurting He Zhongqiu, so he hit He Zhongqiu on the back with a baseball bat neither too hard nor too lightly.

"Arnold, haven't you eaten? Come on, break the thing in your hand." He Zhongqiu urged.

"Arnold, Wolverine said you were weak," Barkley yelled.

"Am I really here?"

Arnold shouted, glaring at Buckley.

"Come on!" He Zhongqiu shouted. "OK!"

Arnold also shouted, raised the baseball bat, and hit it hard.

"Oh!"

The club bounced straight up with a heavy hitting sound.

"Oh!"

New York fans screamed in surprise, and everyone could see that Arnold did not hold back in this blow.

"You ok?" Arnold stared at He Zhongqiu and asked.

"Come again, you're the ones to come." He Zhongqiu roared.

Next, a shocking group fight began.

“I want to participate too!”

Barkley felt itchy, what a pity that such a good opportunity to beat Wolverine was wasted!

In fact, Arnold and the others did not really use their full strength. They did not dare to do so because they were really afraid of hurting He Zhongqiu. They did not dare to hit the vital parts and only hit the parts with more flesh.

But despite this, three sticks and bats were broken.

Nine people fought like that and even killed a cow, so the scene was still very shocking.

However, the one who was being beaten was not tired, but the nine who were beating him were extremely tired. After two minutes of beating, everyone stopped.

"Clap clap clap..."

"Kung Fu King! Kung Fu King..."

Madison Square Garden was filled with thunderous applause and the loud cheers of countless fans.

"Wolverine, are you hurt? Let me take a look."

"Wow, Wolverine, you look injured. Let me check you out."

After the group of big stars who had beaten people went down, a group of excited female stars ran up and started to touch He Zhongqiu in public.

He Zhongqiu's hands were no match for more than a dozen hands, and he felt really embarrassed to be touched again and again by these women.

In the Internet age, after the emergence of platforms such as blogs and forums, the authority of mainstream media still exists, but its influence has actually begun to decline, and people have more ways to obtain information.

Before the All-Star Game began, this video of a hard qigong performance starring He Zhongqiu and assisted by Jordan and eight Hollywood big-name stars had spread across the Internet and became popular around the world in the shortest time.

Within a few hours, all the popularity and attention he had lost in the past few days returned.

The next day, sales of many brands endorsed by He Zhongqiu skyrocketed.

Especially his brand of sneakers, the sales of size 20 soared by 475%, and many specialty stores were sold out.

"The King of Iron Shirt."

"The King of Hard Qigong."

"The King of Kung Fu."

Many names are known throughout the world.

"I don't need the titles of King He and Super Wolverine at all."

On the evening of the 20th, in a lounge at Madison Square Garden, He Zhongqiu spoke to everyone.

Tonight, he will fight against Asashoryu, the current 68th Yokozuna of Japan, using MMA rules.

Madison Square Garden is now packed, and the scene is even bigger than yesterday's All-Star Game. Not only are there a large number of Hollywood stars, but also a large number of Japanese stars and wealthy people.

His company also participated in the operation of this competition, and this was also the first time that Frank Zhang participated in the operation of a MAA fighting event.

The American Mid-Autumn Sports and Culture Company mobilized US$8000 million, Pride mobilized US$6000 million, and the operating funds reached 1.4 million yuan to jointly operate this event.

He Zhongqiu's appearance fee was as high as 5000 million, so it can be said that most of his investment was directly recovered.

Asashoryu's appearance fee was 200 million US dollars, the prize pool was 5000 million, He Zhongqiu's appearance fee, venue fees, publicity fees, etc., all the expenses added up to a total of 1.3 million US dollars, and the 1.4 million operating funds were basically used up.

ESPN paid $7000 million for the television rights to the game, and this income made the operator profitable.

ESPN made the assessment based on the 200 million PPV sales of He Zhongqiu's last fight with Choi Hong-man. This time the fight is in New York, so the PPV sales should not be less than 200 million.

Other sources of income include copyright fees from large and small TV stations, in-venue advertising fees, sponsorship negotiations, box office revenue, etc.

The average ticket price was $1750, with the highest front-row ticket costing $6.5, and the box office reached $3675 million.

3000 tickets have been booked in Japan alone. Tickets for this game are so hard to come by that the black market price has increased tenfold.

Frank Zhang had just rushed back from China to host this game. He didn't even have a chance to adjust to the jet lag and his eyes were red.

"Boss, the revenue from this game has been basically calculated." He said excitedly.

"Tell me about it." He Zhongqiu said.

Frank Zhang said excitedly: “ESPN’s 7000 million, 238 TV stations around the world bought the copyright, a total of 1.25 million US dollars, and a box office of 3675 million.

These three revenues add up to more than 2.3 million, and when combined with other revenues, these revenues will exceed 3.1 million US dollars.

You account for 45% of PPV revenue. Although half of this revenue is included in the company's calculation, we do not include it in the calculation. "

"That means the total revenue is 3.1 million US dollars, right? How much can we earn?" He Zhongqiu asked.

"After deducting the cost of 1.35 million, the gross profit is 1.75 million US dollars. The company holds 57.1% and can share 7800 million in gross profit."

Frank Zhang added: "Boss, if you win, it will be $1 million + 45% of the total PPV revenue share.

If we only count the 200 million PPV sales, your and the company's total revenue will be at least $2.78 million, and $2.5 million after tax will be no problem."

"good."

He Zhongqiu nodded and reminded him, "In the future, the company will have to participate in the operation of my boxing matches. The money can't be earned by others."

Frank Zhang nodded excitedly and said, "I haven't done it before, I didn't know it would be so profitable. No wonder Pride Loans also want to do it."

However, He Zhongqiu was worried about one thing. After he became invincible, no one would be willing to fight him because there would be no suspense and no one would be willing to pay to watch.

The boxing championship match with Dake was quite difficult to discuss because Dake was unwilling to fight him. So far, they have only discussed the general idea and have not signed the contract yet.

If WBO hadn't forced Klopp to fight in a world boxing championship match, Klopp, who had no confidence in winning, would not even be willing to negotiate.

Dmitriyevich is currently considered the strongest man in the world heavyweight boxing world, which means that he may have very few boxing matches in the future, or even no matches at all.

Frank Zhang also considered this issue, so he hopes to expand his business in the Hollywood and NBA agent business.

There were two warm-up matches before the main event, which sold for a total of $5 million.

The first match is a super featherweight points match between Pacquiao and Velascaci.

The second match is a junior middleweight championship belt battle, with Mayweather challenging WBC junior middleweight world champion Arturo Gatti.

In the end, Pacquiao won by TKO in the sixth round, and then Mayweather defeated his opponent by RTD in the sixth round to win the championship belt.

Next, it was almost half past nine and the main race began.
