Chapter 119 Short Goals

At first glance, these two Korean girls seem to be good-looking, but when you get closer, you will find that they both have very delicate makeup on and are dressed very fashionably.

But those two faces look unnatural, and there's a high probability that they've had plastic surgery.

He suddenly remembered a piece of news he had seen on TikTok before, saying that more than 45% of young women in South Korea had undergone plastic surgery.

At the time I thought it was too exaggerated.

"Hello, I……"

The taller of the two, the one in the tight sportswear, spoke a few words in Chinese with difficulty, then couldn't help but switch to heavily accented English and said, "Can you understand English? We are travel bloggers from South Korea and accidentally discovered you... You're amazing. Can we take some videos of you practicing this?"

Zhou Qing still had a good foundation in English, so he understood about 70% to 80% of what was said. Without a second thought, he simply refused in English: "No, and I've finished practicing."

The Korean girl was not discouraged by the rejection and quickly asked, "Can I take a few pictures of it?"

She pointed to the exaggerated-looking barbell on the cushion.

As long as you don't leave the country, this is fine.

After obtaining Zhou Qing's consent, the woman immediately asked her companion and photographer to take pictures.

She calculated the weight of the barbell and was already thinking about how she would edit the video: Shanghai has so much delicious food, and I couldn't resist eating too much during the day. But I'm a disciplined person, so I went to the hotel gym in the middle of the night to work off the food. I was surprised to meet a "power monster" who could deadlift 280kg - a handsome Chinese guy! (Attached here are a few photos of the barbell)

After the two Korean women left, Zhou Qing took off the barbell plates and put them back in their original place.

Then just leave.

Over there, a Korean woman who was preparing to film herself running late at night was waiting for her companions to set up the camera. When she saw the Chinese boy with terrifying strength leaving, she couldn't help but look at his back.

In order to maintain a good figure, she is also a regular at the gym. She knows that among Asians, being able to deadlift 280kg is a very impressive level.

I thought to myself, this person must be a very powerful figure in the Chinese fitness industry.

She suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to add WeChat just now - since China opened a seven to ten-day visa-free policy for foreigners, she planned to make a series of videos about China travel, so she had already opened WeChat and WeChat Pay.

Zhou Qing didn't expect that the first person of the opposite sex who chased him and added him on WeChat would be a Korean girl.

After politely adding the other party's account at the elevator entrance, he returned to his room in a good mood and began to search for information about deadlifts.

I quickly found a very detailed answer on Bihu——

A soft girl who deadlifts 35kg and takes photos to post on WeChat Moments.

……

Deadlifting 180kg is considered quite impressive in a commercial gym where there are no experts.

Deadlift 200kg, well, the entry-level level of Zhihu, Tik Tok, and Bilibili.

……

A deadlift of 260kg is considered a big deal in the fitness world. The famous weightlifter Shi Zhiyong's weightlifting deadlift is 260kg.

Deadlift 280kg, Lu Xiaojun's weightlifting deadlift limit is 280kg, of course the traditional one can definitely be heavier.

……

Deadlift 320kg, the deadlift limit PR of bodybuilding strength master Liu Rui.

Deadlift of 340kg, the national traditional deadlift record, achieved by Li Meihao in the Beast Competition.

……

Deadlift 460kg, the world record for conventional deadlift with bare hands, the behemoth Magnussen, with an incredible grip! Deadlift 502.5kg, a powerlifting legend, Christopher completed a 502.5kg sumo deadlift in training, weighing only about 105kg.

……

Putting aside restrictions such as no equipment, relaxing the conditions, and not looking at weight, the deadlift record soared directly to over 500 kilograms!

In fact, after some research, he also knew that these record holders had all received professional training for many years, and many of them even took medication.

But what does it matter?

Zhou Qing thought, if we need to refer to it in the future, we can use this record as a reference.

"Set a short-term goal: break this record using pure physical strength before next September!"

He was very confident about this - compared to the cultivation of internal strength, his talent was mainly in the body.

Opening the shopping app, Zhou Qing selected 650 kg of barbell plates and some other professional equipment.

Before placing the order, he suddenly thought, his house is a residential building, can it bear such a heavy weight?
Especially when doing deadlifts, you also need to consider the issue of dynamic impact force.

He opened the AI ​​software and searched.

After reading a bunch of professional analyses, the final conclusion is: The recommended weight for residential deadlift training is less than 200 kg, and it is very unsafe to perform a 500 kg deadlift.

Zhou Qing got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

When he came out of the shower, he came up with a solution:
1. You can buy a warehouse nearby. In addition to storing barbells, you can also store things that you don’t need temporarily and take up space in the warehouse after you take them out.

2. After returning to Tanzhou this time, I was going to start preparing to open a "grocery store". Coincidentally, according to my current idea of ​​​​brewing an "antique studio", I must set up a place similar to a club... I will just leave a fitness area at that time.

Of the two options, he temporarily prefers the latter.

I picked up the phone thrown on the bed, found the WeChat of Huang Lei, the agent I bought the house from last time, sent her a message, and stated my needs.

After this last contact, I found this tall and thin female agent to be more reliable, capable and proactive.

The other party immediately sent a message asking, "I want a first-floor, stand-alone apartment, preferably with a good environment, but not too remote... close to Xiangshui Bay. Mr. Zhou, do you think my summary is accurate?"

Zhou Qing: "In place."

Huang Lei: "Are you planning to rent or buy?"

Zhou Qing thought that the housing prices in Tanzhou were at a low point now. If he bought it, although he would have to spend more money at one time, he would not have to worry about rental costs in the future for the "Antiques and Sundries Studio".

He typed a reply: "It depends. If I can buy it, I'll buy it."

Huang Lei: "Then I understand. Give me some time and I will definitely help you find a suitable place."

Shanghai is a big city, and Zhou Qing considered that he would definitely come back in the future. As for Tanzhou, the materials and equipment he bought for making medicinal wine had arrived, so he only stayed for one more day and visited the pedestrian street, Yu Garden, and the Bund.

That night, he drove back to Tanzhou overnight.

He slept until noon in Rong Donghai. After waking up, he practiced his internal strength and took out the paper version and notebook of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" and continued to read carefully.

I have been busy with filming and playing these days, as well as practicing my internal strength, so my reading progress has been slow. I have only read to Chapter 15, which is the plot where Zhang Wuji is deceived by Zhu Jiuzhen, a beautiful and vicious woman.

"Zhu Jiuzhen is a typical character with a 'beautiful appearance but a vicious heart'. She's a good choice for the target of the quest later on."

"But, this time, how about trying a male character?"
