I will practice more in the United States

Chapter 142 Terrifying Body Shape
First of all, Li Ang's status as heavyweight champion to participate in an unrestricted level competition is a hot spot in itself.

Secondly, even if he failed to achieve some effective results in the end, just by virtue of his status as the last champion and his Asian face, he would attract the attention of a certain group of people.

In addition, the reason why he set such a high basic price is that Eddie wanted to invest in Leon himself.

After learning about the case of Eric Furniture Factory, he deliberately researched Li Ang's YouTube account.

His growth potential was found to be quite high.

Since his first video, Li Ang's account fans and video views have been in a continuous growth stage.

Including the fan stickiness of his comments and his various abilities, they are quite outstanding among the Internet celebrities.

He judged that it would only be a matter of time before Li Ang became popular, so by offering a higher price now, he could build a good relationship with Li Ang in advance and look forward to further cooperation in the future.

To be honest, he even felt that this price was a little low compared to Li Ang's current achievements and his potential, but there was no way, capital was inherently profit-seeking.

As the veteran of the company, he also owns a certain amount of shares in the company in order to maximize the company's benefits.

But as corresponding compensation, after Li Ang achieved results, the price he gave was even more astonishing.

As long as Li Ang ranks in this competition, he will receive a total of 150,000 US dollars in sponsorship fees.

If you win the runner-up, this number will reach 200,000.

The price of the championship has reached a terrifying US$300,000. For an Internet celebrity like him with a large number of fans, it is definitely an unimaginable price.

In fact, the better the results Li Ang achieved in the end, the happier he was. Compared with the advertising cost they paid, the benefits this competition brought to them were definitely considerable.

With such a big disadvantage due to his inherent weight, if he finally achieves a very good result, then it goes without saying that judging from his experience in this industry, this matter will definitely trigger an explosion of enthusiasm.

It may even achieve the effect of being out of the circle, attracting many people who have not originally learned about this competition. Everyone may pay attention to this news.

But then again, judging from his understanding of this game, Li Ang's chance of getting a top ranking is almost zero.

As long as he can win one or two games, he has met his expectations.

After several people discussed and determined the price, Li Ang happily signed a contract with them.

In fact, the price far exceeded his expectations.

Because he had worked hard to participate in so many events, the money he had saved so far was just over one hundred thousand US dollars.

If the results of this game are satisfactory enough, his worth will double in a flash.

At the same time, Li Ang was also a little lucky. Fortunately, he had worked hard enough during this period to directly train the Thirteen Taibao to a perfect level.

If there is no breakthrough in this skill, then he really doesn't have much confidence in winning this game.

On the eve of the game, Dana White naturally generated a lot of hot searches and arranged marketing activities for this game.

The popularity of this game has skyrocketed, and the number of fans on Li Ang's account has also increased rapidly during this period.

After the matter here was settled, Li Ang also took his assistant Katina with him and flew to New York, where the competition was held.

As the most economically developed city in the United States, the two of them had a good experience of life in a big city after arriving here.

The flow of people here is not comparable to that of the small place where they are, including various infrastructure, shopping malls, environment and services, which are all more than one level higher than the places he has been to before.

Even the casino city of Las Vegas is inferior to New York.

It's just that in big cities, life-related consumption is much higher than in small cities.

The first is accommodation. In other places, a hotel costing two to three hundred dollars a night is already a very good level.

But if you want a room of the same level in New York, it's not that uncommon to pay at least 700 to 800 dollars a night, or even thousands of dollars a night.

At the same time, it is not a big deal to buy a car here. The really rich people are the ones who can afford to use a car.

It's just a parking lot in a shopping mall. The parking sign above says that the cost of parking is twenty-five dollars for one hour.

This price is quite explosive even if it is not converted into RMB.

At this price, you only need to park your car here for more than a month before you can buy a brand new car.

The second is to take a taxi. The starting price of a taxi here is only fifteen US dollars. Not to mention the mileage behind, so most New York residents mainly travel by subway.

Generally speaking, students who can study in the United States have certain assets in their families, but students who can study in New York as undergraduates must have rich or expensive families.

Katina and I ended up shopping for most of the day. We didn't actually buy much, but we spent more than a thousand yuan casually.

However, when you earn money, you have to spend it. Although his body can still bear it during this period, he is also under great pressure mentally and psychologically.

Going out to play and relax occasionally is also helpful for adjusting your mentality.

When we arrived at the competition site the next day, even though the competition had not officially started, the number of spectators and onlookers present had already increased several times compared to last time.

It can be seen that Dana White was also very successful in marketing this game. Not to mention advertising, he also sold a lot of tickets just by selling tickets.

On the side of the contestants, except for a few players who came to participate for the heat of the competition, they were almost the same size as Li Ang.

Most starting weights are over 100 kilograms.

Weights of two to three hundred kilograms are very common here.

Each player stood there like a hill, looking quite intimidating.

Only the scene of the Strongman competition can be compared with now.

In this type of competition, many times the weight gap cannot be made up by relying on skill and hard work.

Like the title of lightweight champion, it sounds very bluffing, but facing some strong men weighing about 300 kilograms, even if he has not trained, he has no confidence that he will be able to win.

Therefore, several champions in lower weight classes than Li Ang did not participate in this competition at all.

Katina shot several live videos and uploaded them online. The small group of fans who originally believed in Li Ang also became shaken after seeing the terrifying figures of other contestants.

"To be honest, I feel like Li Yang went to the wrong set."

"With such a body type and such muscles, I doubt he would be able to break his defense even if he stood still for half an hour."

"No kidding, I might actually die if he slaps me."

"I advise anchors to take it easy. It's not worthwhile to risk your life just for some money and fame."

Some people also found some video clips of the auditions for this game online.

The duels between many heavyweight fighters are even more intense than the championship battles in the light heavyweight competition.

All these voices did not affect Li Ang's mentality.

On the contrary, he also knows that the more seemingly impossible tasks are, the greater the benefits will be after completing them.

The clothes and pants Li Ang wore were printed with the trademark names of several sponsors.

Corresponding advertisements have also been added to his account.

The sponsorships Li Ang received have also attracted the attention of many players at the same level.

This makes many people feel a little angry.

Some players at a similar level to Li Ang, and even champions in a weight class higher than him, are basically ignored in terms of related sponsorships.

After the competition groups were sorted out, by coincidence, Li Ang's opponent in the first round happened to be the middleweight champion of the previous competition.

This result is actually surprising, but it is also reasonable.

In competitions at the same level, Li Ang and Joseph are both champions of their own groups, but in such an unrestricted group competition, their strength is definitely at the bottom.

Similarly, such grouping will be more topical. It must be said that the competition organizing committee understands traffic.

"We meet again, kid. You still look as thin as last time. I gained 20 pounds for this competition."

Li Ang looked at Joseph who came over specially, smiled and replied:
"It's good to gain some weight. It won't hurt so much when I fall to the ground."
