"300,000? Are you really brave enough to ask for 300,000 from you these days?"
Lu Weiwei couldn't understand that it was obviously a niche sports competition, not even a competition.
After all, athletes can still compete in various competitions on the field, but the bodybuilding circle is more like a display of results.
Of course, Lu Weiwei has also been seen on TV. She applies various kinds of oil on her body, showing off her muscles to the fullest, and poses in various bodybuilding poses in front of the camera.
Of course, Lu Weiwei didn't know what the so-called competition was about. But just to become a master, she actually had to pay 300,000.
This is a bit difficult to understand.
Zhang Tianqiang saw that Lu Weiwei had such a big reaction. He just smiled and said with emotion: "Actually, I am just like you. When I first heard this amount, my heart skipped a beat."
"I thought, why are you talking about 300,000? But when I look around and ask around, everyone is like this."
"The apprenticeship fee is hundreds of thousands, so there's nothing I can do about it. After all, I'm planning to join this industry, so I have to catch up, right? So I borrowed 300,000 here and there."
"I thought as long as I train my body well, I can earn back the 300,000 yuan."
When Master Kang heard this, he clicked his tongue and said, "So, you really paid 300,000 yuan to join the industry?"
Zhang Tianqiang nodded with a smile and explained to everyone: "At that time, I handed the money to the master with both hands. After that, I performed the apprenticeship ceremony and knelt down to serve tea. Alas, this is considered to be a master."
Hearing Zhang Tianqiang's words, Gu Chen also felt a little emotional.
If he really joins the school and can develop a pair of good muscles, that would be great. At least he can get what he wants now.
That also shows the value of 300,000 flowers.
It's just a pity that he spent those years trying to figure things out.
After all, time is priceless.
So Gu Chen asked Zhang Tianqiang again: "Did your body tendons improve after you became a disciple?"
"Haha." After hearing Gu Chen's words, Zhang Tianqiang rolled up his sleeves and showed off his muscles: "Do you think these muscles are real?"
"It's... quite real." Lu Weiwei said.
"After I became a disciple, I started to make rapid progress? Is it really so miraculous?" Master Kang was also very curious.
I feel that if Zhang Tianqiang can do it, then I can definitely do it too.
Zhang Tianqiang waved his hands, feeling that everyone took it for granted.
"After I joined the apprenticeship, like you, I wanted to quickly build tendons like the master, so I started to exercise the muscles of the limbs according to the methods arranged by the master."
"Then one day, the master suddenly took out a strange syringe and said to me, let's give it an injection."
"Inject...injection?" After hearing Zhang Tianqiang's words, Lu Weiwei felt more and more interesting.
Why does muscle training have anything to do with injections?
Gu Chen patted Lu Weiwei on the shoulder and told her to stay calm and not be so surprised.
But I also felt something was wrong in my heart, thinking what the hell is this?
Zhang Tianqiang smiled self-deprecatingly: "I was so surprised at the time. I asked the master, what is this?"
"The master calmly told me not to make a fuss. He told me that it was like this now and there was no way I wouldn't get the injection."
"He also told me that I shouldn't take him seriously at this point. He said that bodybuilding does not require drugs. You are just dreaming."
"Wait a minute." Lu Weiwei interrupted Zhang Tianqiang's words. After walking back and forth in the room twice, she pointed at Zhang Tianqiang's muscles and said, "Could it be that all your muscles are related to drugs?"
Zhang Tianqiang nodded silently.
"Didn't it come from your hard work?" Lu Weiwei asked again.
Zhang Tianqiang laughed at her: "Little girl, that's what I asked my master at first, but he told me that he doesn't think medicine is needed for bodybuilding. This topic is debated by young people under the age of 35."
"And he told me that in their bodybuilding industry, drug use is an open secret, and he told me clearly everything that needed to be said."
"And told me that if I want to be like him, then listen to him and do whatever he asks me to do."
"As for this, I thought at the time, it cost 300,000 anyway, so there must be some changes, right?"
"My heart told me to just take medicine, but the master also told me that if I take medicine, I have to bear the risks and pay the price."
"Because the types of medicines he provided me were all kinds of strange and varied. Only the master understands this."
"My heart went cold at the time. I felt like I was exercising and entering the bodybuilding circle. I just wanted to build muscles like my master. Why should I take risks and pay the price?"
Seeing that the three of them were listening attentively, Zhang Tianqiang sighed and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Anyway, this is the secret of this industry, so I won't go into details here."
"I can only tell you that those of us who practice bodybuilding have to pay a price that ordinary people can't even imagine. So if you want to build the muscles I have now without paying the price, don't just dream about it. This is not very good.
It’s possible, at least you won’t be able to reach my level.”
"Oh my god! This is the same as the chicken provided in fast food restaurants. So, you have all gained your muscles by cheating?"
Lu Weiwei felt that Zhang Tianqiang had subverted her understanding. At least at that time, she thought that this guy was a complete fitness fanatic, and she unconsciously worshiped him.
But now that I say it, it doesn't feel so mysterious anymore.
Lu Weiwei even stepped forward again and pinched Zhang Tianqiang's muscles twice.
Perhaps due to psychological effects, Lu Weiwei felt that these muscles were not so real.
Gu Chen glanced at the certificates and trophies in the room and asked him curiously: "If everyone in your circle uses drugs, won't you be tested when you participate in the competition?"
"Haha." Hearing what Gu Chen said, Zhang Tianqiang laughed twice at that time: "Little brother, if you think so, it can only be said that you are too naive."
After sweeping down his sleeves, Zhang Tianqiang showed several certificates on the window sill to Gu Chen: "Take a closer look."
"It's pretty good. Are you in the top three in many regional competitions?" Gu Chen said after browsing through it.
Zhang Tianqiang sat back on the bed and grinned: "I just said, after all, the money has been paid, the risks have been borne, and the price has been paid. You have to train your muscles, right?"
"But our training is not just a show. Then the next step is to participate in competitions. Which competitions you participate in depends entirely on your network of contacts."
Pointing at himself, Zhang Tianqiang added: "This includes the network of contacts you usually hang out in, and the circle of contacts that your master hangs out in."
"In whichever circle the master is famous, you can participate in competitions in that circle."
"So you know how I got this certificate, right?"
"Hey, you have the nerve to say that." The master master heard Zhang Tianqiang's words and said angrily: "When you lent me so much money, you only got a few certificates, and they were all obtained through your master's connections. How shameless
Shameful."
"Uncle, it's all over." When Zhang Tianqiang saw his uncle exposed his shortcomings, Zhang Tianqiang frowned, feeling a little embarrassed.
You know, these certificates and trophies obtained by relying on the master's connections are the last fig leaf for oneself.
If you don't have these things, your muscles may look fake.
Although Gu Chen didn't know much about the various situations in the bodybuilding industry, he had a general understanding of what Zhang Tianqiang said.
Co-author Zhang Tianqiang, the bodybuilding circle he comes into contact with, all have to rely on drugs to survive?
Looking at Zhang Tianqiang's certificate and trophy, Gu Chen asked him: "So, these things are all obtained after paying for the medicine?"
"Yes." Zhang Tianqiang was now reduced to this, and he seemed to be no longer afraid, so he said casually:
"After becoming a disciple, if you don't win a few awards, you won't be able to make it to the stage."
"Only if you participate in competitions and win prizes will you gain seniority, and you will be promoted from rookie to senior."
"For example, there are some people who, with enough money, become more famous. They can also receive advertisements for health products and so on."
"So you see, in such a rotation system, there is actually no detail that produces value."
"The whole cycle of this system relies on small fish constantly getting in, and then the big fish eats the small fish, providing energy to rotate around, and then the small fish come in and rotate around again."
Glancing at Gu Chen, Zhang Tianqiang smiled self-deprecatingly: "According to popular sayings nowadays, you have to cut new leeks every time before they can move."
"Anyway, it's really depressing to say it, and there's nothing to be happy about."
"Then why did you quit the circle?" Gu Chen asked him.
Zhang Tianqiang shook his head: "Do you think I want to quit the industry? It's just that I have taken too many drugs and my body can no longer bear it. If I don't quit the industry, there will be no development if I stay in the industry. I might as well find another career."
Looking at his biological uncle, Zhang Tianqiang felt a little guilty: "My uncle originally lent me money to study as a disciple. Although he has made some money now, he has spent it all on medical treatment and cultivation."
"If it weren't for the mighty and powerful look on my body, I probably wouldn't have been able to find a good job, so I could only do some odd jobs here."
Zhang Tianqiang is very unwilling. At least he has gained nothing after going around all these years.
I have lost my health and become ill. The key is that I have not made any money yet.
Now seeing the new leeks entering the pit, Zhang Tianqiang feels like he is seeing himself back then.
Everyone chatted briefly in the room, and Master Kong also learned the packaging procedure.
Everyone joked a bit and left the factory.
…
…
The next morning.
Furong Branch Criminal Investigation Team Three.
Gu Chen returned to the cafeteria last night and took several hardcover mooncakes that he and Master Kang had packaged together for reference to his colleagues.
The main thing is to count the amounts everyone needs.
Although the police station will give each person a copy, it is inevitable that some police officers will want to give it to relatives and friends.
Therefore, more quantities and orders will be beneficial to Master Kong and the pastry store team behind him.
At least when it comes to ordering packaging, you can make more and not waste it.
7:40 am.
Everyone has gathered around Gu Chen's desk, carefully admiring the packaging design of Tiangong mooncakes.
Everyone has some expectations in their heart.
"The packaging is quite high-end, but I don't know what my parents' reactions will be after receiving the pig intestine mooncakes I gave them."
He Junchao has been struggling with this issue. After all, it is called "serious mooncake", but it makes people feel that it is not serious.
Officer Ding also said: "I think it's okay. At least the products produced by Master Kong are generally recognized by everyone. They are best-sellers. You can definitely order more."
"Yes." Gu Chen nodded, this is what he wanted to explain to everyone this morning.
So Gu Chen took one of the packaged boxes of Tiangong mooncakes in his hand, raised it above his head and said, "These packaging boxes are all in limited quantities, and they will be gone when they are used up."
"So those who want to send someone off in the criminal investigation team should make a reservation in advance. The statistics will be collected at noon. If the lunch time is exceeded, reservations will no longer be accepted. Please be informed."
"Then I'll order 3 boxes." Hearing that the deadline was noon, He Junchao could not avoid the law of true fragrance and quickly stretched out three fingers.
Seeing this, other police officers surrounding Gu Chen also joined in.
Gu Chen arranged for everyone to write their names and quantities in the reservation book. He returned to his seat, took out a small package, and weighed it in his hand.
This is a mooncake from the canteen of Furong Branch. It can be said to be a home-made product.
If it had been a year ago, when Master Kong had not dared to engage in dark cuisine, this kind of mooncake would never have been born.
Lu Weiwei looked at the mooncakes in Gu Chen's hands and couldn't help but sigh: "It would be great if Zhang Tianqiang like yesterday could grow muscles after eating the dark cuisine mooncakes made by Master Kong. That would be great, and he wouldn't need to take medicine every day."
Gu Chen agreed with Lu Weiwei's opinion, but said with a faint smile: "In fact, once you have experienced it, you will also find that there are very few industries that truly produce value."
"Especially like this kind of small fish that keep coming in, eating them and turning around, and then small fish coming in and eating them and turning around. Most industries rely on this mechanism to operate."
"Yeah." Lu Weiwei agreed, "Pharmaceutical companies, tournament organizers and sponsors should be the professional players in this circle."
"But I heard that taking too much medicine will cause you to lose your fertility. No wonder my best friend told me that the men who look very muscular in the gym don't seem to like women very much anymore."
"Haha, that's pretty good." Hearing that Lu Weiwei was talking nonsense, Officer Wang took his mooncake and sniffed it, couldn't help but take a bite and said: "The most painful thing... is to die from liver and kidney failure.
"
"Uh, Lao Wang, please stop talking." It felt a little scary, and Lu Weiwei couldn't help but said: "The main reason is that these people are too impetuous, so they can just exercise naturally. Wouldn't it be good to exercise a little bit?"
Although I also want to have a toned body, of course I don’t need to reach the level of a muscle maniac like Zhang Tianqiang.
But looking at Zhang Tianqiang's strong muscles and sick look last night, the contrast was too great.
At least I won't take drugs indiscriminately just for the sake of toned muscles.
Thinking about it, this circle is quite chaotic, at least the circle Zhang Tianqiang comes into contact with is so.
At this moment, the office phone suddenly rang.
Lu Weiwei pushed past several registered police officers and took the initiative to pick up the phone and said: "Hello, hello, this is the Criminal Investigation Team 3 of the Furong Branch. How can I help you?"
"Comrade police, we found the body of a woman on the hillside by the lake." The voice on the phone came from a young man. He sounded young but seemed a little nervous.
Lu Weiwei frowned slightly, bit off the pen cap and asked him: "Speak slowly, don't be nervous."
"Yeah." The other person responded and continued: "We found it when we were playing on the Guanhu Hill. We didn't know what it was at first. It was covered with a plastic sheet, but when we opened the plastic sheet
Only then did we find a woman lying on it, so we quickly called the police."
"On the hill overlooking the lake, right?" Lu Weiwei asked in confirmation while taking notes.
The man hummed, "Yes, you'd better come here quickly."
"Okay, just stay there and don't go away. We'll be there right away. Also, what's your name?"
"Call me Xiao Hu."
"Okay Xiao Hu, we will dispatch the police immediately..."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Weiwei quickly gave the recorded note to Gu Chen and said casually: "There is a police situation on Guanhu Mountain."
Then I briefly introduced to Gu Chen the situation of the phone call I just received.
Gu Chen did not hesitate. He discovered the police situation early in the morning, especially the corpse. In many cases, the time of death may be at night or earlier.
This situation makes it difficult to detect the case. First of all, determining the identity of the deceased is a headache.
Driving the police car, Gu Chen took Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha together and drove towards Guanhu Lake.
Guanhu is located in the northwest suburb of Jiangnan City, and Guanhu Hills is right next to the lake. The altitude is not high, but it rises in the plain area. It is an ideal place for many people to go hiking during their holidays.
Since it is morning, there are not many passers-by near Guanhu Lake, only some old people exercising sporadically.
Gu Chen contacted the alarm personnel again through the phone. According to the entrance instructions, he found the entrance from the hill and took everyone directly to climb the mountain.
There are wild flowers of various colors blooming on both sides of the road. Stepping into it, you feel like you are in a world of flowers.
Officer Wang also followed behind and reminded: "There used to be a botanical garden here. Many flowers and plants were planted here, and there were also many wild flowers."
“If the location wasn’t a bit remote, there would probably be a lot of people checking in here.”
Lu Weiwei disagreed and said: "I think the main reason is that the basic supporting facilities are a bit poor. It would be nice to spend some money to renovate it. This is the first time I have discovered such a beautiful place."
"Stop talking, we should be here soon." Gu Chen was already on the mountainside and vaguely saw traces of several men.
Everyone quickened their pace, and three minutes later, they arrived in front of several men.
Seeing Gu Chen and his group wearing police uniforms, one of them, a tall and thin man, took the initiative to step forward and report: "You guys came here after receiving the police call, right?"
"Yes, you are the Xiao Hu who called?" Gu Chen asked him.
The man named Xiao Hu nodded: "Yes, I am Xiao Hu, and I called the police."
"Where are the people?" Lu Weiwei looked around and saw no so-called corpse.
Xiao Hu pointed to a cliff in the distance and said, "The people are over there. I'll take you there now."
"OK."
Everyone had a brief exchange, but did not stop too much. They followed the three men and quickly searched for them in the direction of the cliff.
The fragrant flowers and plants on the roadside give people a fresh and refreshing feeling.
But in this sea of flowers, Gu Chen found a piece of plastic sheet stacked there near a big rock on the edge of the cliff.
Gu Chen stopped and glanced at Xiao Hu beside him.
Xiao Hu pointed at the plastic and preached: "The body is on that piece of plastic cloth."
"Let's take a look." Gu Chen quickened his pace again and put on his white gloves casually. If you like I Am the Super Police, please bookmark it: (www.sodu777.net) I Am The Super Police has the fastest update speed on the Internet.
