Chapter 369: I Hate Being Threatened the Most
The atmosphere appeared somewhat stifling.
Liang Hongyue smiled at Chen Jie and said:
"No need to be so nervous. I'm not here to make things difficult for you this time, but to cooperate with you!"
"Chen Jie, ever since you started campaigning in the Southeast Asian underground boxing world, I've studied the videos of your recent matches in detail."
"You might not know this yet, but I'm your loyal fan!"
"Tonight's match of yours surprised me greatly. I didn't expect you to actually defeat 'Big Windmill' Kubato."
"Your strength is formidable! As an Asian boxer, I rarely see a boxer as strong as you."
"I, Liang Hongyue, have never submitted to anyone, but today, I am genuinely convinced by your strength!"
"Since you just said you don't want to hear nonsense, coincidentally, I'm also a straightforward person. I'll speak directly: I hope to cooperate well with you, and we'll all make money together."
"I appreciate your strength! I came this time to invite you to fight a few matches."
"Since it's cooperation, I naturally won't let you suffer a loss. For each match, I can give you twenty percent of the proceeds."
"You mustn't underestimate this twenty percent. That's tens of millions of US dollars! Even compared to the prize money proceeds of the Global Underground Gambling Boxing Championship, it's not much less."
"Moreover, I can additionally give you an appearance fee of one million US dollars per match. In this place, Europe Netherlands, I can promise to help you settle any matter."
"How about it? Can you give our 'Heshenghe' this bit of face?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Jie was stunned for a moment.
Damn it——! What does this mean? Help you fight a few matches?
Threatening me? Making me give your 'Heshenghe' face to help you make money? One match, one million US dollars appearance fee?
Then only giving twenty percent of the proceeds, is that how you cooperate?
You son of a bitch, bringing so many people over, trying to threaten me?
At this moment, Chen Jie was indeed a bit dumbfounded.
Didn't this guy say he investigated me?
Could it be he doesn't know my deeds in Southeast Asia?
He doesn't know I'm the Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society?
Or perhaps,
he doesn't take the Qinglong Society to heart at all, looks down on it? In Europe, having had smooth sailing all along, he really thinks he can control any Chinese person who comes here? Exhale——! Chen Jie took a deep breath, almost laughing out loud.
Even the Person in Charge of the Global Underground Gambling Boxing Championship, speaking in front of me, would never act so arrogantly, so presumptuously.
They know I'm the Money Tree of the Global Underground Gambling Boxing Championship, and would spare no effort to protect my safety.
Because,
the Person in Charge of the Global Underground Gambling Boxing Championship knows very well that Chen Jie now represents the combat power of Asian underground gambling boxing.
Many Asian boxing fans are very optimistic about him.
The betting amount for each match, just from Asian boxing fans alone, can reach an astronomical figure.
It is precisely because of Asian boxing fans' betting that the betting of every European and American boxer can be supported, maintaining the balance of the odds.
Therefore, any 'hot favorite to win' boxer participating in the Global Underground Gambling Boxing Championship is a top-level expert.
Offending such an expert is absolutely the most stupid action.
Truthfully, even if Chen Jie weren't the Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society, with his identity, defecting to any top-tier force globally would get him the highest standard of reception.
The Spokesperson of 'Heshenghe', Liang Hongyue, actually wanted Chen Jie to help him fight a few matches with a threatening tone.
What made Chen Jie even more dumbfounded was that the other party actually called it cooperation, making money together.
Even from Liang Hongyue's tone, he could tell that being able to cooperate with Chen Jie was Chen Jie's good fortune.
All of a sudden,
Chen Jie really almost laughed.
He really didn't understand, how could this Chinese organization 'Heshenghe' have such strong confidence?
Do they really not know what the 'Qinglong Society' does? This damn thing is called cooperation, not robbery?
One million US dollars, wanting me to go fight a match? Isn't this insulting the identity of the First Person of Asian Underground Gambling Boxing? Exhale——! Chen Jie forced himself to calm down as much as possible, staring coldly at the other party.
Just at this moment,
the middle-aged man in a tailcoat standing to the side, looking very gentlemanly.
Seeing Chen Jie make no sound, he thought he had intimidated Chen Jie, and smiled blandly:
"Chen Jie, this is Europe Netherlands, not Southeast Asia, and not China!"
"Ever since you participated in the Global Underground Gambling Boxing Championship, you've been noticed by many people."
"For any force, you're now a Money Tree. Who knows how many forces want to harvest you, understand?"
"If there's no force behind you to help, you'll be in big trouble in Europe Netherlands."
"Perhaps in Southeast Asia, because you have cooperation with the Thai Royal Family, other forces would be wary of you and not dare act rashly against you!"
"But after all, you're just a boxer. Even if you created a small force, you fundamentally have no power to protect yourself here in Europe."
"Tonight, you killed 'Big Windmill' Kubato, already offending quite a few people, making many people lose money!"
"Not hiding it from you, our 'Heshenghe' lost tens of millions of US dollars in tonight's match."
"Now many forces, perhaps like our 'Heshenghe', are waiting for an opportunity, hoping to find you to cooperate!"
"We can still give you benefits, and are willing to give you an appearance fee. This is truly cooperating with you."
"Other forces won't be so easy to talk to."
"Our 'Heshenghe' coming to find you tonight counts as giving you enough face. Hope you understand your place."
"Everyone cooperating together, getting rich together, this is your wisest choice. If you don't know what's good for you, then whatever happens later won't be easy to predict."
"Everything I've said is fact. You shouldn't have any resentment either."
"This isn't Southeast Asia, and it's certainly not China. Everything you have in Southeast Asia is of no use whatsoever here in Europe's Netherlands!"
"Coming to find you tonight was just to meet face-to-face first!"
"I believe in the coming time, you'll take the initiative to call us, hoping to 'cooperate' with our 'Heshenghe' here in Europe."
"I'm also not afraid to tell you, in Europe's Netherlands, there's never been anything our 'Heshenghe' wanted to do that we've failed at."
"You have no choice, understand?"
"Don't know if you can understand what I'm saying put this way?"
Have to say,
This middle-aged man in a tailcoat was very arrogant.
Although his tone sounded calm, it gave people an indescribable feeling.
That kind of domineering aura, arrogant attitude — even Li Chengze and Wang Hou beside him almost directly shot him dead on the spot.
Chen Jie raised his head and sized up this middle-aged man in a tailcoat for a moment.
Discovered the other party's appearance was very similar to 'Liang Hongyue'.
Looks like they're all from the same clan, counting as 'Heshenghe' core members.
Exhale—! Chen Jie nodded, smiling as he said:
"Master Hong, so this is your 'Heshenghe's' true purpose?"
"You think because I have no foundation in Europe's Netherlands, you can coerce me into fighting boxing matches for you?"
"That twenty percent profit you just mentioned is just a front, right?"
"One million US dollars, having me fight boxing matches for you, is indeed quite a bargain!"
"Our Qinglong Society temporarily has no interest in Europe; otherwise, with your shameless and greedy conduct, cooperating with you would actually be not bad!"
"I like cooperating with forces that have no bottom line, because that way, I can also have no scruples."
"However, it's very unfortunate that after I finish the Global Underground Boxing Championship, I'll leave Europe. If you want to cooperate, you'll have to wait for later!"
"You all go, taking advantage of my good mood right now, what I've said to you — let bygones be bygones!"
"Remember, when you don't know the other party's background, don't lightly make enemies, don't provoke people you can't afford to offend!"
Finished speaking,
Chen Jie raised his head to look around, his gaze becoming sharp.
Liang Hongyue slightly furrowed his brow. He didn't expect Chen Jie's tone to be so tough.
However,
He was, after all, someone who had seen big storms and waves; a smile appeared on his face as he said: "Haha— looks like there's a misunderstanding between us!"
"No matter, this cooperation didn't work out, we'll cooperate later, there'll always be a chance to cooperate."
"I'm someone who most likes making friends; today counts as getting to know each other first, from now on we'll be friends!"
"Since Brother Chen Jie doesn't welcome us, today we'll stop here!"
"If you have any needs later, you can call me anytime."
"We're all Chinese, no need to make things this unpleasant, haha— right?"
"This friend, I'm determined to make!"
Finished speaking,
Liang Hongyue turned his head and nodded, instructing the bodyguard beside him to take out a card and hand it to Chen Jie.
Chen Jie didn't make a sound, but instead used one hand to receive the other party's card.
Gold Card!
That's right, this is a card forged from pure gold.
From this it can be seen, this 'Heshenghe' Spokesperson is a very high-profile person.
Exhale—! The middle-aged man standing beside Liang Hongyue, seeing Liang Hongyue hand an identity card to Chen Jie, took a deep breath.
He wanted to keep silent and not make a sound, but ultimately still couldn't hold back.
A force from that small place Southeast Asia, just a boxer.
Is there a need to be this polite to him?
The middle-aged man spoke to Chen Jie in a low voice:
"Chen Jie, our 'Heshenghe' came to find you today, truly treating you as a friend, giving you full face!"
"Hope you don't mistake kindness for weakness, thinking you're something special!"
"You're just a boxer; even if you can fight in the ring, so what?"
"Not to mention you haven't won the 'King of Gambling Boxing' title yet; even if you defeat everyone in the end and win the 'King of Gambling Boxing' title, what's so great about that?"
"No matter how well you fight, can you fight a bomb? Can you fight a sniper rifle?"
"Being a person must have self-awareness, don't be ungrateful for favors!"
Obviously,
This middle-aged man in a tailcoat had a very bad tone, pressing aggressively.
He seemed somewhat impatient.
Compared to the 'Heshenghe' Spokesperson Liang Hongyue in a Tang suit beside him, he was arrogant by far more.
"You're threatening me? Do you know, I hate being threatened the most!?"
Chen Jie narrowed his eyes, his tone turning icy.
Truthfully, he had the Qinglong Society's several main halls' people all come to Europe's Netherlands with him, and had the Qinglong Society stop expanding in Southeast Asia.
The purpose of it all was simply not wanting to have any conflict with the local forces in Europe's Netherlands.
It was more of a deterrence; this is also why Chen Jie spent a high price to hire a security team — the important reason.
So he had no intention whatsoever of having anything to do with that Chinese group called "He Province He."
A Chinese force in Europe—though they'd accumulated some money over the years and had grown arrogant among the Chinese, they really thought no one dared provoke them.
If this "He Province He" wanted to threaten Chen Jie.
To be honest, Chen Jie didn't mind letting the Qinglong Society fight a blood battle with them.
He also wanted to see if this force called "He Province He" could take a hit!
The scene instantly turned white-hot, becoming unusually tense.
The atmosphere around them became heavy and oppressive, suffocating.
Crack!
Many people around pulled back the bolts on their guns.
Just as both sides were about to go to war, on the verge of breaking out.
Liang Hongyue suddenly burst into loud laughter, easing the tense atmosphere.
"Haha—Chen Jie, don't misunderstand, we came to see you this time with no hostility at all, and it's even more impossible to threaten you!"
"You're now the favorite to win the Global Underground Boxing Championship, and the organizers have issued a death order, not allowing any force to lay a hand on you."
"So, rest assured, we definitely won't make things difficult for you!"
"I'm your fan, sorry for disturbing you tonight!"
"Here is ten million US dollars, consider it our meeting gift for rudely disturbing you tonight."
"Chen Jie, we're all Chinese, abroad we're brothers, compatriots, one more friend, one more path!"
"Since we can't cooperate, let's talk next time, I hope to become your true friend!"
His tone was very generous, seeming not to care at all about Chen Jie's rejection.
It has to be said,
this "He Province He" spokesperson Liang Hongyue was indeed a remarkable person, able to control his emotions at any time.
Chen Jie showed a faint smile on his face, saying to Liang Hongyue: "You are indeed a remarkable person! Not disgraceful as the spokesperson of 'He Province He', very smart!"
After saying that,
Chen Jie turned his head to Li Chengze and Wang Hou and others beside him, nodded, and walked toward the elevator inside the hotel lobby.
Next, he suddenly thought of something, and glanced at the middle-aged man wearing a tailcoat.
So,
Chen Jie came to the other man's side, saying with an indifferent look:
"I've never had any interest in you Chinese forces developing in Europe!"
"You people never dare provoke the locals here, you only dare bully those Chinese who moved here from the domestic country."
"I really dislike you, do you know why?"
Crack!
The armed personnel around in black suits hurriedly pulled back the safeties, aiming their muzzles at Chen Jie.
They were worried Chen Jie might suddenly do something unfavorable to this middle-aged man.
However,
At this time, everyone of the Qinglong Society had already dispersed, aiming their muzzles at every armed person in black suits.
As long as the other side made any rash move, what followed would be a one-sided slaughter.
The atmosphere at this moment reached white-hot.
Boom! Chen Jie's killing intent was sharp, domineering, fierce, making people fearful.
His murderous aura, his killing intent had reached the extreme, how could ordinary people possibly endure it?
So, everyone around could feel a suffocating chill, and even their legs began to tremble.
Although they were all armed personnel carefully selected from the battlefield, having experienced the baptism of blood battles, having killed people and been stained with blood.
But,
they had no martial arts cultivation.
The killing intent Chen Jie was emitting at this moment was of the Grandmaster realm.
At such a close distance, how could these ordinary people not be afraid? Watching as a firefight was about to break out again.
Liang Hongyue hurriedly stepped forward, smiling and shouting to all the men in black suits around:
"Everyone put down your guns, haha—Brother Chen Jie, no malice!"
