I am the king of fighting!

Chapter 191 New Hong Kong Island Fighting Tournament

The next day, in the afternoon, the Hong Kong Island branch of the International Fighting Fans Association.

"Hello, Mr. Lin." The black man with a white Mohawk and a suit took the initiative to greet him in fluent Chinese and extended his hand. "I am Seth, the head of the East Asia region of the International Fighting Fans Association."

The name Seth?

The first thing Lin Xi thought of was the future Street Fighter boss Seth, but then she thought that guy should still be lying in Yingluo's experimental base, and his name should still be No. 15, so she smiled and shook hands with the black man in front of her, "Hello."

He felt something being stuffed into his hand by the opponent. His mind, which was originally still thinking about the fighting match, suddenly returned to reality. He felt it carefully and found that it was a metal cross. The touch was quite familiar. Instantly he thought of the cross hanging around his neck. Thinking of it this way, it was exactly the same.

[In other words, the other party is an agent of Ling Organization, Vanessa's colleague? ]

After Seth released his hand, he extended his hand and said, "Mr. Lin, please come with me. We will go to the office to discuss in detail."

Lin Xi's peripheral vision caught the surveillance cameras in the corners of the office and the corridor. He seemed to realize something and walked into the office. Two bright cameras were set up one after the other. He did not pretend that nothing had happened, but pointed at the surveillance cameras and asked openly: "What does this mean?"

"Mr. Lin, according to our office privacy regulations, any office space must be monitored and recorded at all times. Please rest assured that we have professional ethics. The surveillance video is only for backing up relevant information and preventing staff from making mistakes." Seth wore a standard smile that was gentle but somewhat alienated, revealing his eight upper and lower teeth.

This is absolute bullshit.

It is basically possible to determine that the other party is an agent of the Ling organization, but he has to be so careful to reveal his identity to him. Doesn't even the person in charge have the authority to handle surveillance?
Lin Xi's thoughts turned over and over again, and his expression gradually eased, but he did not smile again. He said in a hard tone: "Let's talk about how to cooperate."

Seth was 'relieved' and returned to his office tone, talking in detail about the cooperation method for hosting fighting competitions.

Generally speaking, it is quite fair, whoever contributes more gets more. In some details, the International Fighting Fans Association can even be said to be at a disadvantage, as they get a relatively small share of the commercial profits, and no matter what, they will provide overseas TV live broadcast channels and invitations to well-known fighters free of charge.

It sounds good, but Lin Xi found some very strange content in the contract template provided by the other party.

For example, it is necessary to accept the relevant medical services they provide, fighting data and fighter information are not shared, etc. These awkward clauses are interspersed in every corner of the contract.

Think carefully, who provides medical services for Street Fighter competitions?
Shadow Luo.

Are fighting data and fighter information valuable?
It is very valuable, even Ying Luo would be willing to pay a large sum for it.

Moreover, the Howard Consortium behind the International Fighting Fans Association is even more ambitious. It has dominated South Town a long time ago, and the candidate it supported last year almost became president... No matter from which angle you look at it, there must be a price for what others are willing to provide for free.

Seth was ready to bargain, but Lin Xi agreed immediately, made only slight changes, and signed the contract with a stroke of his pen.

Are you kidding me? Do we still need to worry about the problems of Kagera and Howard's combination? Next year will be the time for the collapse of these two organizations. Starting from the second generation of Street Fighter in 91, the story of Fatal Fury happened on the other side of the ocean. Vega retired from the Street Fighter ring, and Gis fell to Gista for the first time. Both huge evil organizations will collapse in a short period of time.

"Mr. Lin, you——" Seth looked a little speechless. The agent really felt helpless about the man in front of him. He took the contract and took a look. The only clause added was that the competition system proposed by the other party must be used. It was simply a step into a trap! But his current status did not allow him to speak nonsense, so he could only smile and said, "In this case, Mr. Lin, did our receptionist tell you what information you need to register?"

Lin Xi handed over the folded paper in her pocket.

Seth coughed dryly and unfolded the paper, on which information related to the event was written in neat handwriting.

The above competition system is very clear and easy to understand. It can be held at any time. The registration period is 15 days. The threshold is fighters. After the registration is completed, all people are randomly mixed and drawn by computer every day. The winners advance and the losers are eliminated. They advance in a bye cycle until the final champion is decided.

The difference between KOF and Hong Kong Fighting Tournament is that KOF adopts a complete invitation system, and the threshold is to grab the invitation letter. The Hong Kong Fighting Tournament that Lin Xi wants to hold is much simpler and more brutal. There is no need for review or invitation at all. Hong Kong is a big stage, and you can come if there is work. One match every day will surely make the progress of the competition extremely fast.

There is no live broadcast, no commercial activity, nothing at all. There is only the purest and most intensive fighting. It is exciting enough, but one can tell at a glance that this crappy competition system has poor money-making ability.

The threshold for fighters means that there will not be too many participants. The half-elimination every day will make the schedule extremely short, and the already limited commercial conditions will make it even more difficult to monetize traffic.

Seth looked at the words on the paper and was silent for a long time before he said, "Mr. Lin, I think——"

"I don't need your opinion." Lin Xi interrupted him, "I can agree to your other conditions, but this condition is not negotiable."

"Okay." Seth didn't waste any words to persuade him. He just nodded, folded the paper again and put it in the file bag, and asked, "Mr. Lin, I need to submit your request to the headquarters for review. Is there anything else you want to know?"

Lin Xi stood up, revealing his intention to leave, and said, "Please give me an answer as soon as possible." He was ready to work with the police department to deal with it himself if the other party disagreed.

New Hong Kong Fighting Tournament!
After sending Lin Xi away, Seth stood at the door, his mouth not moving, but his voice was transmitted to the headset: "Vanessa, your sweetheart is really hard to deal with."

"Haha, I told you to pay attention in advance." Vanessa's voice came from the headset.

"It seems that the Howard Consortium has also set its sights on Hong Kong Island. If he can't win the championship..." Seth was obviously aware of Lin Xi's situation. He understood that this competition system was purely about setting up the stage and waiting for coveted enemies to come and challenge. As long as absolute strength is demonstrated, the problem can be solved once and for all. If one loses, the consequences will be disastrous.

Without Vanessa, he would not care about this solution which is no less than suicidal. He would only add fuel to the fire and see if there is any chance to further gain the trust and intelligence of the Howard Consortium.

"Just listen to him." Vanessa's tone did not change at all, it was relaxed and full of trust:
"I believe in him."
