Chapter 749 Marathon Competition
When Zhong Mo saw these words, he was slightly startled and said in surprise: "They won't let me participate in the marathon, right? Isn't it true that only those with Xiangjiang household registration can participate in your competition?"
Lin Meng'e shook her head and said in denial: "Brother Zhong Mo, if it was a marathon ten years ago, it is true that only people from Xiangjiang could participate. But later, in order to expand its influence, the Xiangjiang Sports Association relaxed all restrictions, whether it was people from Xiangjiang or from the mainland. People, or people from other countries, are eligible to participate!”
"The prize money has also been greatly increased. In the past, the championship prize was 100,000 Chinese national currency, but after the restrictions were lifted, the championship prize money became 100,000 U.S. dollars, which also attracted more and more foreign sports fans to participate!"
"Wait, are they crazy this time?"
She looked at her phone and said in shock, "The prize money for the champion of this year's marathon is as high as half a million US dollars, which is more than three million Chinese national currency, which is more than 30 times the previous amount, while the runner-up's bonus is one hundred thousand US dollars." , the second place is $50,000!”
"so much?"
All the girls were also shocked by this number.
In competitions like this where everyone participates, the prize money is usually very small, and the emphasis is on participation. The champion in an ordinary city can only get tens of thousands of Chinese national currency to survive. It is good for a first-tier city to get more than a hundred thousand Chinese national currency. For example, Xiangjiang directly gave the champion half a million US dollars this time. Even in the whole world, except for the big dogs, country, which is rare in other countries.
"A half-million dollar bonus? Full restrictions lifted?"
Zhong Mo thought about these keywords carefully and seemed to understand something.
"I may know why Fu Luo is looking for me!"
"Oh? Brother Zhong Mo, is it because you want to participate in the competition?"
Apart from this incident, Lin Meng'e could not think of any other possibility.
"That's right, I'm probably invited to participate in this marathon!"
Zhong Mo nodded lightly and said, "If my guess is correct, in the marathon competitions that you have held in Xiangjiang in the past ten years, most of the locals have been reduced to foils. In the end, the championship, runner-up, and third runner-up were all taken away by foreigners, right?"
"That's right!"
Lin Meng'e nodded, "The physique of Oriental people is indeed not as good as that of foreigners. Even if we train hard for several years, we still can't surpass them. Therefore, there are some dissatisfied voices on the Internet, saying that the Xiangjiang Sports Association spends money to kneel and lick foreigners and worship foreigners. Some people even suggested banning foreigners from participating in marathons, etc., which caused quite a stir!”
"Oh? Does Uncle Fu want Brother Zhong Mo to win the championship and severely suppress the arrogance of those foreigners?"
Li Rumeng blinked and wanted to understand the key, "After all, ten black men were just arrested by the police yesterday. I heard that some black men were very dissatisfied, saying that the Hong Kong government violated their rights and disrespected them. Restricting their freedom, etc. makes them very noisy online.”
Yang Mi said with a sneer: "I didn't expect them to be really good at finding opportunities and want to use this marathon to cause trouble!"
Bai Lu also mocked again and again: "This is the first time I have seen someone taking shamelessness as an honor. No wonder my husband is very disgusted with these people. People like them are not worthy of sympathy!"
Liu Tianxian picked up the cup, took a sip, nodded lightly and said: "I also estimate that those people will use this marathon to threaten the Xiangjiang government and force some concessions, and the Xiangjiang government and the Xiangjiang Sports Association will definitely not compromise. , that’s why they went to Xiao Mo, hoping that he could help suppress this public opinion!”
Masanobu Kishida said with disdain: "Master, just a few big black guys, what kind of trouble can they make? Isn't it just that they don't participate in the marathon? Could it be that without them, this race can't be held? I still have thirty more As a bodyguard, you can choose a dozen who can run faster, and they will definitely run faster than them!"
"Yes, I can also find a dozen fast bodyguards there!"
Mi Kyoko nodded in agreement.
But who knew that Lin Meng'e held her cheeks in both hands and shook her head gently: "But it is said that the champion of the Hong Kong International Marathon last year was a big black man named Chiatu. He took 2 hours, 5 minutes and 35 seconds, and this year he won again Coming!"
"What? 2 hours, 5 minutes and 35 seconds? So intense?"
The expressions of Kishida Masanobu and Mikyouko changed and they cried out.
Many cities in the early days also held marathons every year, and they knew that the current record for marathons was a man named Kip, with a time of 2 hours, 00 minutes and 35 seconds.
Although this Chiatu took a little longer than Kip, it only took five minutes longer.
In other words, this Chiatu is still very powerful!
Although their bodyguards are all special forces and have strong strength, when it comes to marathon competition, they can only be considered above average!
After all, when it comes to running, others are professionals, but they can only be considered amateurs!
Zhong Mo, however, didn't take Chiatu seriously at all.
What happened to 2 hours, 5 minutes and 35 seconds?
Don’t you know that cheating is invincible?
If he wasn't worried about shocking the world, he would have dared to run a terrifying one-hour time!
They finished breakfast quickly and did not go back to their rooms at all. Instead, they sat in the hotel lobby while waiting for Fu Luo to come.
Mi Xingzi took this opportunity to send all the design drawings of various islands to Zhong Mo and asked him to slowly choose one!
The women looked at hundreds of design drawings, all kinds of styles, including oriental style, European and American style, Gulf of Aden style, dog-rich style, and even several styles perfectly matched together, and couldn't help sweating.
How many island design experts did Mei Xingzi find?
But thinking about her identity, it seems easy to understand!
The granddaughter of the Emperor Xiao Ri Tian!
Although the Emperor Xiao Ri Tian is now a mascot and does not have much power, after all, he has existed for thousands of years, and there are still some things in his hands. If you just pick out some, it will be enough for ordinary people to live for several lifetimes!
For other people, building an island is a big project, but for Mei Xingzi, it is just like building a palace casually, and naturally all kinds of preparations must be made in the early stage.
Just as the women gathered together to study the island design drawings, a middle-aged man in his thirties walked in from outside.
He was tall and straight, and he looked very calm when he walked.
He had a handsome face, regular features, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and a gentle smile at the corners of his mouth, without any impatience or anxiety!
He wore a pure white shirt and tie on the upper body, black suit pants on the lower body, and a pair of black summer leather sandals on his feet. He looked like a gentle scholar!
He is Fu Luo!
Zhong Mo was very sure in his heart.
