Chapter 1069 1169. Human relations, coercion

Nie Wei's fans and McGregor's fans quarreled with each other, neither of them was convinced, and attracted countless people to take sides. Some supported each side, but overall, there were undoubtedly more people supporting McGregor.

After all, apart from that video and the legend of Nie Wei strangling a wolf to death with one hand, Nie Wei had no other outstanding record. On the contrary, McGregor is now a big celebrity in UFC, a double champion of featherweight and lightweight, and a new generation of fighting king promoted by UFC.

These titles were won by his punches and kicks, so naturally they are more convincing in the eyes of the general public.

Of course, in the eyes of Nie Wei's fans, McGregor's record is not worth mentioning. If you have the ability to break a sandbag for us to see?

These remarks also deeply stimulated McGregor, who loves social networks.

"I'm not an artist, I don't know how to show, I'm just a fighter. If you want to see a show, go find that great director. In his movie, Superman might be defeated, but that's only in the movie. In reality, I only need one punch to make some people understand what real fighting is."

McGregor's words aroused the fighting spirit of his countless fans. Everyone united as one and launched a new round of battle against Nie Wei and Nie Wei's fans.

Nie Wei's fans naturally wouldn't be scared by McGregor, but instead hated him more because of his words.

People with a flamboyant personality like McGregor are like this. Those who love him love him very much, and those who hate him are destined to hate him very much.

At the same time, many of Nie Wei's fans came to Nie Wei's Facebook and Weibo, asking Nie Wei to fight McGregor and shut him up with practical actions.

After all, in a competition like fighting, talking nonsense is useless, and fans can't tell the winner even if they quarrel. Only by fighting with real fists and feet can we know who is the truth.

Just like what Master Ye said in "The Grandmaster" filmed by Sunglasses King, Kung Fu, two words, one vertical and one horizontal, the right one stands, the wrong one falls, and only the one who stands has the right to speak.

However, Nie Wei did not respond to the fans' request.

Nie Wei would not get angry and go to the ring to fight with others because of some irrelevant words. Not to mention winning or losing, just the fact that so many people were worried about it made Nie Wei have no idea in this regard.

During this period, Shu Chang kept an eye on Nie Wei all the time, fearing that Nie Wei would rush to the ring in a fit of passion. For this reason, Shu Chang confiscated Nie Wei's mobile phone and laptop computer, and only allowed Nie Wei to use them for work. He absolutely did not allow Nie Wei to go online to read the news, let alone go to social networking sites.

And the reporters outside who came to apply for interviews every day were also strictly guarded by Shu Chang. The original security team of 12 people in the crew was expanded to 20 people by Shu Chang, which created employment opportunities for some unemployed veterans at home.

She did this to prevent Nie Wei from being provoked by the other party and really agreeing to fight. Nie Wei didn't say anything about this and let the girl do whatever she wanted. In fact, if he wanted to know any information, he really needed to search on the computer and mobile phone. He only needed to give an order and someone would tell him everything he wanted to know.

However, Shu Chang did this, which provided Nie Wei with an environment where he could concentrate on filming movies.

Unfortunately, things did not go as Shu Chang wished. As time passed, McGregor's challenge to Nie Wei did not reduce the heat because of Nie Wei's non-response. On the contrary, McGregor's provocative remarks every day made the whole thing more lively.

In particular, Nie Wei's non-response was seen as a guilty conscience by McGregor and his fans, which further fueled their arrogance.

Nie Wei's fans were very anxious and urged Nie Wei online every day. Many people even began to doubt whether Nie Wei was really afraid. Some radical fans ran to the downstairs of Max Films and held banners hoping that Nie Wei would fight McGregor.

Even the betting companies have opened a handicap to bet on whether Nie Wei will accept the challenge. The odds of accepting the challenge are very high, because even they are not optimistic about Nie Wei going to the ring. After all, Nie Wei is not a professional fighter.

One morning, Cheng Zimo and Nie Wei did morning exercises as usual, but Cheng Zimo seemed a little absent-minded from the beginning, and even Nie Wei's personal guidance made him unable to concentrate.

Half an hour later, Nie Wei frowned at Cheng Zimo and asked him what he was thinking about.

This gave Cheng Zimo a chance to vent. In front of Nie Wei, Cheng Zimo asked directly: "Master, that McGregor yells at us every day, I really can't stand it, otherwise let me go to the ring and fight him for you."

Cheng Zimo has been very upset these days. He sees McGregor's remarks every day. It's not that he can find them, but because these remarks can make the headlines of the news almost every day, he will definitely pay attention to them as long as he goes online.

As McGregor's speech became more and more excessive, Cheng Zimo could no longer hold back his anger.

He was sure that the reason why Nie Wei did not accept the challenge was definitely not because of fear. He had followed Nie Wei in martial arts training over the years, and he knew Nie Wei's actual combat ability best. At least from the beginning to now, the two of them had fought more than a hundred times, but Cheng Zimo had never won once, and he had never even seen the hope of winning.

Every time Cheng Zimo felt that he had made considerable progress, he would challenge Nie Wei, but every time he was beaten black and blue by Nie Wei, he had not yet tested the depth of Nie Wei's strength.

Asking such a powerful person, even if the opponent is a professional fighter, he believes that Nie Wei is so powerful that he is not afraid of any opponent.

Although he could not guess the reason why Nie Wei should not fight, he felt that as Nie Wei's disciple, he had the obligation to protect his master's reputation when he was humiliated.

"Master, why are you laughing? I'm serious. If you agree, I will challenge you immediately!" Cheng Zimo saw that after hearing his request, Nie Wei not only did not answer, but also looked at him straight. Suddenly anxious.

"Looking at your impatience, I naturally have my own reasons for not fighting." Nie Wei said with a smile.

He has actually paid attention to McGregor's speech these days. If McGregor may have been sincere in the first two or three days, then McGregor's increasingly arrogant remarks in recent days are completely deliberately provoking Nie Wei.

The purpose is self-evident, naturally it is to hype yourself up.

You must know that all the fighters in the UFC are masters of hype. They are not only good at fighting, but they are also good at showing off. McGregor, in particular, is one of the best.

When Nie Wei saw McGregor's message calling him a showman, Nie Wei almost laughed out loud.

You must know that UFC is a business alliance. To put it bluntly, every fighter in it is just like an entertainment star. They are commodities and their purpose is to entertain the public.

If there is attention, there will be an audience, and the value of oneself will rise greatly. For example, McGregor deliberately takes the "disregarding relatives" step every time he appears, and provokes his opponents without any bottom line before every game. If he wins, The other party is even more arrogant, all this is just for show.

Nie Wei even guessed that the other party saw that he had provoked him in the past few days, and the heat suddenly increased and became endless. This is just like those public accounts that take advantage of the popularity of celebrities, and he will not care about Nie Wei's true relationship with him. Fake, he just wants to capture Nie Wei's popularity and then increase his own popularity.

"Master, I know you have your reasons, but if this continues, people all over the world will think you are afraid of him."

"And he not only insulted you, Master, but also said that we Chinese people and kung fu are not good. I am really angry."

Cheng Zimo said angrily, with a very sad expression. Nie Wei looked at him and shook his head. He did not reprimand, but just told Cheng Zimo not to act without authorization.

The reason why he didn't reprimand him was because Nie Wei didn't think Cheng Zimo had done anything wrong. Isn't that what a passionate young man should be like? But he was different. He had a wife, parents, and so many corporate employees waiting for him to support him. It was impossible for him to do this. Such a passionate thing.

But sometimes, even if you don't want to, some people will push you forward.

Nie Wei came to the set in the morning, and during the preparations for filming, he suddenly received a call from China. The person who called him surprised him.

"Hello, Grandpa Wu."

"Xiao Nie, how am I doing? How are you? I heard that you are also filming a movie. Is it going well?"

"It's pretty good." Nie Wei's expression was a little strange, because this grandfather Wu had a very special identity. He was a Tongjiquan master living in Cangzhen. Nie Wei had consulted with him for two days when he accompanied Wang Jiawei to collect materials. Tongjiquan, we left each other’s phone numbers at that time.

But to be honest, Nie Wei never thought that the two of them would meet again, and from the tone of Mr. Wu's tone, he felt that he had something to do with her.

Thinking about the favor that Wu Lao Chuanyi had received for two days, Nie Wei felt that as long as he could help, he should help and return the favor.

After a few awkward conversations about family matters, Mr. Wu asked Nie Weiyi something very irrelevant.

"Xiao Nie, I was watching the news recently. There is a fighter in the United States who wants to challenge you. What do you think of that fighter's strength? Can you beat him?"

Nie Wei frowned and realized that this problem was not simple.

After all, Mr. Wu, who was living an ordinary life in China, suddenly started to care about things in the United States, and it was such gossip.

Nie Wei gradually had a guess in his mind, but he was not completely sure yet.

"I've only seen his videos online. He's a very powerful person." Nie Wei thought about it and replied.

McGregor may be arrogant, but his strength cannot be underestimated. Nie Wei must admit this. After all, becoming the double champion of featherweight and lightweight is not just a matter of words.

McGregor is at least more powerful than Cheng Zimo, which is why Nie Wei doesn't let Cheng Zimo act without authorization, because he knows that Cheng Zimo can't win in the ring.

"This fighter's side kicks are very sharp, his steps are also very flexible, he has power and speed, and his lower body is very stable when it should be stable. And I know that he also practices yoga and jiu-jitsu, so he has no shortage of flexibility and joints. He is also proficient in skills." Nie Wei told Mr. Wu some of his analysis of the videos he had watched.

"Then do you think you can beat him?" Mr. Wu asked again.

Nie Wei thought for a while before replying: "Sixty percent."

After all, martial arts is not a superpower, it is just a type of fighting technique. Nie Wei compared the physical fitness and fighting experience of both sides and estimated that he would have a 60% winning rate.

Of course, you have to actually play it on site to know how it really is.

"Sixty percent... Xiao Nie, Grandpa Wu wants to ask you something. You don't have to agree, just listen, okay?" Mr. Wu said suddenly.

Nie Wei's heart moved, knowing that the other party was finally going to reveal his ultimate purpose.

"Mr. Nie." Old Wu even changed his address to a respectful one for Nie Wei, and then said: "I know my request is very abrupt, but for the sake of Chinese Kung Fu, I want to ask you here. If you are sure you can win this fight, then please stand on the ring and win this duel for the reputation of Chinese Kung Fu. I beg you."

Nie Wei was moved. Although he had guessed that what Old Wu was going to say was related to the duel, he did not expect that Old Wu would beg him in this way.

"Old Wu, I... I still need to think about it." Nie Wei wanted to refuse directly, but he couldn't bear it when the words came to his mouth. After all, the 70-year-old man on the other end of the phone begged him with such a humble attitude. Nie Wei refused too decisively, which would be too hurtful.

What made Nie Wei relieved was that Old Wu did not force Nie Wei again, but just agreed to a few words with disappointment and hung up the phone.

Holding the phone, Nie Wei thought about the reason why Wu Lao was on the phone. Did he simply not want to see the other party insulting kung fu, and wanted Nie Wei to vent his anger for him and beat McGregor?

Nie Wei thought it was impossible. Wu Lao was already 70 years old. Even if martial artists were full of vigor and vitality, how could Wu Lao be so impulsive?

Just as Nie Wei was still thinking, the phone in his hand rang again. Looking at the caller ID, Nie Wei's face changed.

"The crew will delay the start of the filming for one hour. Attention, the crew will delay the start of the filming for one hour." Not long after, a girl holding a megaphone shouted to the crew.

Many people pulled her to ask her the reason for the delay, but she couldn't answer clearly, and only said that it was Nie Wei's order.

On the other side, Nie Wei looked at the phone on the table. In just fifteen minutes, he had received three calls, and they were all from the martial arts predecessors who had communicated with him when he was on the "Grandmaster's Road" before.

And they all had the same goal, which was to hope that Nie Wei would fight McGregor.

Nie Wei looked at the phone on the table and had a feeling that if nothing unexpected happened, the phone would continue to ring. Just when he thought of this, the phone on the table rang again.

Nie Wei answered the phone with a wry smile. This was because he had asked the staff to announce the delay.

What Nie Wei didn't know was that at this time in China, all the seniors who called Nie Wei were gathered together.

Thanks to Fantasy Paradise and 0773 for their generous rewards, and thanks to Qiang Love Rong for her generous reward of 2,000.
