fatal blow
Chapter 22 Charity Banquet
Yuan Jing's underworld turmoil continued.
It can be seen that the organizing committee is actually very hesitant.
On the one hand, there is strong public opinion. Many viewers demanded that Yuan Jing be removed from the list, otherwise they would stop watching all UFC matches.Although there are not many people who can really resolutely stop watching, the officials don't want to really anger them.On the other hand, Yuan Jing himself was completely unaware of the incident and did not participate in these two activities related to the underworld. It is actually unreasonable to be swept away.Moreover, the members of the organizing committee have always had the idea of exploring overseas markets. From the perspective of future profits, it is better for Yuan Jing, as the only Chinese, to stay in the boxing ring for the time being.
This is really a dilemma, and fate hangs like this.It was as if a sword was hanging above his head, and it might fall down at any time, but he didn't have the strength to get out from under the sword, so he could only passively wait for the trial to see if he could break free or be sentenced to death.
During this time, Wei Cheng made a phone call.
Yuan Jing is now no stranger to this kind of contact from time to time.
Wei Cheng's first sentence was also: "How are you doing?"
"Very good." Yuan Jing smiled.
"Actually, you haven't been with me for long, and you can make Little White Tiger Bone and the others do this."
Yuan Jing thought that people like Wei Cheng might really find it difficult to understand the friendship between brothers.
"...Little White Tiger Bone and the others didn't suffer any grievances there, did they?" Yuan Jing changed the subject.
"No."
Yuan Jing nodded.
Xiaobai is a frequent visitor to the prison.He really wasn't clever, and when the police asked him a few casual questions, he couldn't make up a lie anymore, and his words were full of loopholes.Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Xiaobai is not at all unfamiliar with iron prisons.
"Wei Cheng," Yuan Jing thought for a while, and said, "I'm sorry for including you."
Yuan Jing felt the need to apologize, the incident was caused by him, Wei Cheng lost troops, the company accompanied one, and a large sum of funds was confiscated.
"It has nothing to do with you." Wei Cheng smiled: "It will never be your fault."
"Then what are your plans?" Yuan Jing asked, "Go back to Thailand?"
"Of course not." Wei Cheng smiled and said, "Yuan Jing, do you really want me to leave as soon as possible?"
Yuan Jing stopped talking.
In fact, he really hoped that this incident would allow Wei Cheng to put his business in the United States on hold for a while.
Wei Cheng's innocuous connection made him feel uncomfortable.
"It's not a big deal," Wei Cheng said, "You can make up for this gap by doing anything."
Yuan Jing didn't ask further questions.
Wei Cheng already has plans for the next step, but Yuan Jing is not interested.Wei Cheng has always been a person who can make troubles, and Yuan Jing also believes that Wei Cheng can make troubles well.
A few days later, Wei Cheng began to conduct high-profile charity activities.
Charity is deceptive, and it is difficult for outsiders to see through the intricate things inside.
In the old underworld, there were fights and killings, scrambling for territory, and no one paid attention to their image.Later, there were more and more millionaires, multi-millionaires, and billionaires in the underworld. These people often entered the upper class and separated themselves from the violent crimes at the bottom.Although the violent crimes at the bottom are also instructed by the high-level, the high-level will not show any obvious connection, and will find ways to avoid being implicated.In these underworlds, some are very low-key and anonymous, no different from ordinary people, while others like to use another identity to show their faces, accept interviews, publish autobiographies, show off wealth, do charity and so on.
People who choose these two paths have their own ideas.Try not to be conspicuous, the risk is naturally lower.But those who make the most of their publicity can whitewash themselves, expand their contacts, develop their businesses, and get more rewards.
Wei Cheng has been quite high-profile these days.
In cooperation with the Air Quality Management Bureau, we have launched an environmental protection project, opened another store, provided free food to the poor, and opened an institution to teach the native language to children in the Asian community for free.
However, unlike ordinary charities, Wei Cheng himself did not contribute much money.The money for environmental protection projects is all provided by Wei Chenglong's fund. In fact, the source is social donations.The store that provides food to the poor for free, all materials are "deployed" from the territory under Wei Cheng's jurisdiction, and all the things that are not used up in various restaurants every day are sent to this store.As for the teaching institutions, all the participants in the training are volunteers. As long as an advertisement is posted in each university, some foreign students will enthusiastically participate in it immediately.Wei Cheng is so indifferent, he actually gained a good reputation for being generous.
Yuan Jing didn't understand what Wei Cheng wanted to do at first, until later, Wei Cheng began to hold "charity balls" or "charity banquets".Usually, at these kinds of events, all tickets go to charity.Before the event, the younger brothers will notify the businessmen on the site to participate.In this way, who would dare not go if they were invited?This method can work, and a large part of the reason is that the invitees are afraid that they "can't afford it" and have to go.At the same time, the psychology of clinging to the powerful also exists in this kind of charity activities. The invitees know that the underworld may have something to do with the organizers, and there are not many people who want to curry favor.Some people living on this site hope to satisfy the underworld in this way, so as to ensure that their business will not be affected.In addition to tickets, there are often some donation auctions, and the proceeds are all muddled accounts, and Wei Cheng still makes a steady profit.
But that's not the point.With the help of his previous reputation, Wei Cheng invited many business and political celebrities to these charitable activities.When Yuan Jing began to see reports in the newspapers about those influential people participating in such receptions, Yuan Jing finally understood what Wei Cheng meant by "doing anything to fill the gap".The United States is a country that doesn't care about human relationships, but it cares about connections. Getting to know these people will undoubtedly be of great benefit to future development.
In particular, one of the candidates for the mayoral election is of Chinese descent, and he has been frequenting Wei Cheng's charity activities recently.Wei Cheng himself is completely separated from illegal and criminal activities, and there is no danger of being implicated when interacting with him.After the relationship gets closer, Wei Cheng will naturally provide convenience for the funds before the election, not only the funds, but also help her win votes, which is beneficial to this candidate without any harm.
If this woman can really become the mayor, Yuan Jing believes that Wei Cheng will live a very comfortable life in the future.
One day, Yuan Jing's agent, Chad, suddenly said to Yuan Jing: "JING, there is a charity banquet held to help poor children develop sports hobbies, and we were also invited."
"...?"
"Many legends in the sports world will also participate. This is a good opportunity to develop contacts."
"……Um."
"If these guys can say something nice for you, it's going to boost your chances of staying here and fighting."
"...OK," Yuan Jing said, "I'll go."
When Yuan Jing appeared at the charity banquet in a neat suit, Yuan Jing saw Wei Cheng almost at first sight.
That person really attracts everyone's attention.
Wei Cheng also saw Yuan Jing at about the same time, crossed the crowd, and smiled.
Only then did Yuan Jing know that this charity banquet to help poor children develop sports hobbies was actually organized by Wei Cheng.
Yuan Jing wandered around inside for a while, looking a little dazed. He had never participated in such "advanced" activities for the upper class in the past.
The agent brought Yuan Jing to meet some people, but Yuan Jing was not very good at saying the kind of words that can enliven the atmosphere, and it seemed a bit difficult to integrate. After a few polite greetings, the other party would leave.
Yuan Jing felt powerless.
He didn't know, in this kind of situation, how to behave in order to make people with eyes above the top feel sympathetic to him as an unknown person, and even stand up against the wind to support him.
- This seems like an impossible task.
After a while, Wei Cheng came over suddenly.
"Yuan Jing," Wei Cheng said, "Come here, I'll introduce you to a few people."
Yuan Jing walked over and found that they were several well-known seniors in the MMA world.
It seems that Wei Cheng, as the organizer of the event, has become quite familiar with them.
"JING," Wei Cheng said with a smile, "You should know all these people, right?"
"Of course," Yuan Jing said, "They are all the people I respect the most."
"This is JING," Wei Cheng introduced: "A player from China in the UFC."
After a pause, he said, "My good brother."
Those people looked at Yuan Jing in surprise.
They obviously knew about Yuan Jing and his affairs.
Then Wei Cheng talked about Yuan Jing's situation.
Yuan Jing himself didn't say much, but Wei Cheng's mouth was powerful and contagious.Soon, everyone said that they could understand Yuan Jing, and he should not lose his professional qualifications because of this.
"The soul of such a thing as sports," said a black athlete who has dominated the boxing ring for several years, "the reason why the soul of such a thing as sports is supreme is that he does not submit to the powerful in society or Strong public opinion."
……
After chatting for a while, the group of people dispersed separately. Yuan Jing looked at Wei Cheng who had been quickly entangled by others, and walked out of the hall to get some air.
However, just standing alone for a short while, Wei Cheng came from behind again.
"Wei Cheng," Yuan Jing said, "...thank you just now."
"It's okay." Wei Cheng looked at Yuan Jing's limp hair blown by the wind: "You don't have to worry."
"..."
"Those people have seen that I really want to help you, and they won't ignore it."
"..."
"Even if there is really no news, I'll just go and say hello."
"...Do you still have any money dealings with them?"
Needless to say, Yuan Jing could also see something surging beneath the surface.
Otherwise, how could Wei Cheng be so sure that they would participate in cleaning up Yuan Jing's mess.
"It's nothing." Wei Cheng said: "Those people want to set up a few schools that teach mixed martial arts. I just agree to contribute."
"Wei Cheng," Yuan Jing said after a moment of silence, "...what do you want to do?"
Wei Cheng was taken aback when he heard the words, but soon returned to normal: "You think I'm doing this for you? That's too high of yourself. I was going to participate in this project, but I just passed on your matter by the way. Just up."
"...Really." At this point, Yuan Jing couldn't say anything more, so he had to keep silent.
"Yeah." Wei Cheng smiled.
"...No matter what," Yuan Jing said, "This time, it is indeed thanks to you."
"Fortunately," Wei Cheng said, "That's not much money."
How could there be no money, Yuan Jing thought.
——Wei Cheng, an iron rooster who usually spends nothing, really spent money this time, although Yuan Jing didn't understand what Wei Cheng's purpose was.
The fact is just like what Wei Cheng told Yuan Jing, after this charity banquet, celebrities in the fighting world began to support Yuan Jing in the media, thinking that Yuan Jing did nothing wrong.
The few seniors I met at the charity banquet all had a very close relationship with the organizing committee, and they often talked about this matter with the organizing committee consciously or unconsciously.
After a period of counterattack in the public opinion war, the organizing committee finally got a step down and officially announced on the website that Yuan Jing's qualification to participate in the competition was retained.
It can be seen that the organizing committee is actually very hesitant.
On the one hand, there is strong public opinion. Many viewers demanded that Yuan Jing be removed from the list, otherwise they would stop watching all UFC matches.Although there are not many people who can really resolutely stop watching, the officials don't want to really anger them.On the other hand, Yuan Jing himself was completely unaware of the incident and did not participate in these two activities related to the underworld.
