Chapter 312: Parkour professionalization

What is the best way to restrain a sport?

The answer is only one word: professionalism.

Parkour is undoubtedly originated from street culture. The Frenchman David Bell summed up and created this extreme sport, and gave this sport a unique philosophy of life, but there is one more thing that is undeniable: parkour It is an extremely dangerous sport.

If it is just ordinary parkour, the biggest danger is estimated to be sprains or bruises, but after a person starts a sport, few people can be satisfied with ordinary difficulty and not climb higher difficulty, so this In this case, high-rise parkour and extreme parkour will all happen sooner or later.

However, although the high-difficulty parkour is cool, the danger in Chengdu is also rising. Almost all high-rise parkours are disabled and even die on the spot as long as there is a small mistake.

So Fang Xi is worried about these:

On the one hand, I suddenly realized that the cool parkour action of the assassins is the best promotion of the sport, and many people only saw the protagonist’s handsome flying over the wall in the game, and did not realize the danger and safety measures in this process. Necessity, what should I do if there is an unrecoverable physical injury in the process?

On the other hand, it is commercial. If the above things happen, Fang Xi can think of the next development with his fingernails: domestic media condemns the tragedy caused by video games, Hongyi will be pushed to the forefront of the storm, assassin It will become a game of verbal criticism by the Western Virgins, and even parkour will become a stinking sport.

It is for these reasons that Fang Xi wants to meet David Bell, the founder of parkour.

Fang Xi was a little unbelievable when he saw David Bell. The man he hadn’t seen for half a year also began to have a little fat on his stomach. When he first met in France, this man was **** and had eight-pack abs, which made Fang Xi envious. Now Fang Xi looks at his slightly raised abdominal muscles. , I'm afraid that the abdominal muscles have become one.

Seeing Fang Xi's gaze, David Bell didn't care at all, he laughed, "BOSS, I heard you are looking for me?"

"Sit down." Fang Xi gestured. After David sat down, Fang Xi was not polite. He and this man are more of an employment relationship, and there are not many old ties, so just say something straightforward:

"David, I want to make parkour a truly professional sport. What preparations do I need to do?"

"Boss, do you want to promote the professionalization of parkour?" How pleasant is David's expression. After all, he is the founder of this event. If this sport becomes one of the mainstream extreme sports, his reputation will be unimaginable. of.

Fang Xi nodded, and I don’t need to talk to him about possible commercial disputes, but simply explained the impact of Xia Xi on the game parkour on teenagers, as well as the hidden worries about the sport. David Bell who listened to it frequently nodded.

There are many mainstream extreme sports in the world, such as rock climbing, skateboarding, surfing, winged flying, etc., which are widely known. Basically, two people die every year, which can fully explain the danger of extreme sports.

These sports are now relatively mature extreme sports in modern times, with a complete and mature training system, and professional partners and prop manufacturers. Even so, they still can’t achieve zero casualties. Fang Xi’s worries about parkour are justified. .

On David Bell's side, it is undeniable that David Bell was the founder of parkour last time, but there is another characteristic of this parkour father who cannot be denied: he is particularly keen on being famous.

In the last time and space, this man first created the sport of parkour, and then relied on his fame to quickly enter the entertainment industry and became an actor, and some movies were good, and later he came to China, the world’s largest movie box office. In the region, he signed with a local brokerage company in China, and became an actor working hard in China, earning both fame and fortune.

Therefore, Fang Xi's proposal can be said to hit David Bell's heart.

"The company will provide you with full funding and public relations support. My request is simple: make parkour a recognized sport in the International Extreme Sports League, and I can even run a parkour world at my own expense every year. At the same time, the professional parkour athletes union must be developed. All parkour athletes must join the union and practice parkour in accordance with the safety measures required by the union. Those who are not registered are injured as a result of practicing parkour. Even death is my responsibility."

Fang Xi folded his hands in front of his nose and put a big boss's classic poss and put forward a series of specific requirements:

"And I authorize you to become Hongyi's full authority over the extreme sports league and strive for Hongyi's right to speak in the league. Is there a problem?"

"BOSS, very reasonable." David Bell is very satisfied with these. Apart from the blessing of his reputation after the promotion of parkour, what fascinates him the most is Fang Xi's final penetration of the International Extreme Sports League, which he has full authority to grant himself. In other words, how much power he ultimately has in the league depends on his hard work, and Hongyi will only support it.

He likes this challenge-for his personal reputation.

David Bell comes fast and goes fast. The first thing he needs to do is to go back and retrain his abs, and then go to the group of poor ghosts in the International Extreme Sports League, and kill them with money: Fang Xi said it anyway. Hongyi will fully support him, so he will not be polite.

Extreme sports have always been limited by the relationship of the audience. This alliance is said to be tall, but the actual extreme sports is a high-investment but not necessarily high-return sport. All those who play this business are people with a wealth of family. It is difficult to make a profit by itself. The most successful operation is the skateboarding competition. However, the highest prize money in the world is 700,000 in a year. This money is almost equivalent to the current e-sports business and the current Hongyi. It's a drop in the bucket, so David Bell is very excited. For him, he has seen the seat of the chairman of the league beckoning to himself!

Sending away David Bell, Fang Xi had a deep vision. Of course, he knew how poor the extreme sports league is now. Let David Bell go out, on the one hand, to incorporate parkour into the league to resolve future security disputes.

On the other hand, it was because Fang Xi took aim at other sports of the Extreme Sports League!

VR games are a big game for Hongyi in the future. For VR, there is nothing more exciting for the senses than extreme sports. Parkour itself is not suitable for VR because of its complicated main perspective changes, which can easily lead to players. It’s vertigo, but other extreme sports, such as alpine skiing, surfing, wingsuit flying, air surfing, street descent, downhill, etc. are all very suitable for VR sports.

These extreme sports combined with the main perspective of VR, Fang Xi believes that it can scare many players to pee on their pants!

Boss Fang not only wants to rely on this alliance to eliminate possible disputes in the future, but also wants to directly control this alliance, and then bring this alliance under the banner of Hongyi!
