Chapter 74 - 72 UFC Tryouts
Wu Li stayed in Qi City for three days, during which he devoted himself to coaching Liu Yuanbo, instructing him in the training methods of Bone Strengthening and Muscle Strengthening, as well as the details of force exertion in Tiger Hugging Head.
"A master leads the way to the door, but the practice is up to the individual," as the saying goes. Whether it’s training or fighting techniques, there’s only so much that can be taught; three days were enough for Wu Li to teach everything that was necessary. As for more advanced content, Liu Yuanbo would have to reach the appropriate level in his training before Wu Li could teach him further.
Aside from coaching Liu Yuanbo, Wu Li also dealt with many business matters over these few days.
Although he didn’t have to personally handle the specifics, he still had to sign off on them, and some issues required his decision-making, such as endorsements for Haohan Fitness and the shooting of advertisements. In the end, the endorsement fee was settled at 4.2 million a year, signing only for a year, because Wu Li believed that his popularity and influence would be much higher after one year, and the price would certainly not be the same.
As for the advertisement shoot, since Wu Li needed to return to Beichuan, it could only be arranged to take place in Chuhua City.
Beyond that, there were various commercial collaborations, mainly involving live streaming and posting advertisement videos.
Wu Li felt that as a streamer whose main focus was martial arts, selling products such as shavers and instant noodles in the live stream felt awkward and out of place, so he outright refused live stream sales. As for hosting advertisement videos, Wu Li currently preferred to promote Bo Yuan Boxing Gym primarily and abstained from other advertisements for the time being, to avoid diverting the fans’ attention and negatively impacting their perception.
Thus, after winning the championship, Wu Li’s main income source was the endorsement deal with Haohan Fitness, followed by donations during live streams. Without the system’s doubling conversion, his earnings wouldn’t be that much, but Wu Li believed that as the branches of Bo Yuan Boxing Gym grew in number, his real-world income would soon surpass what he obtained from the system. By then, he wouldn’t have to worry about explaining the source of his funds.
In addition to business collaborations, Wu Li took care of two other matters before leaving.
The first was an invitation from Qi City TV Station to record an episode of "Face to Face" alone.
For this, Wu Li politely declined, citing a lack of time.
