Across America, Starting with the Boxing Champion

Chapter 73 Nora

 Nora Duva quietly looked at Link Baker on the chair opposite her. Although she had watched several of Link's boxing matches on TV, she also learned a lot about Link from Franco.

But she was still a little surprised when she saw Link in person. When Link was wearing clothes, he looked polite and gentlemanly, and his temperament was also very gentle and kind. He was not at all as ferocious and violent as he was on the boxing stage.

 It feels like there are two people on stage and off stage, like a pair of twins, a violent younger brother and a gentle older brother.

 Is this the reason why Franco thinks so highly of Link?

 But if that’s all, it doesn’t seem to be enough, because Franco is too ‘favored’ by Link and seems to be ‘charmed’ by him.

In order to sign Link, Franco not only offered a large contract and a higher share of competition revenue than other companies, but also offered 20% of Dynasty Promotions' shares.

Although the registered capital of Dynasty Promotion Company is only 30 million, and 20% of the shares are only 6 million, in the professional boxing industry, only money has no chance of ending. Here, more emphasis is placed on human resources, promotion channels, etc.

 At present, the three most influential people in the boxing industry are Don King, Lou Duva, and Bob Arum. They have the most resources in the boxing industry.

Franco is the eldest son of Duva Lao and the heir to the Duva family business. When running the promotion of Dynasty, he is also qualified to use those resources. Taking into account the value of these resources, the 20% share of Dynasty is by no means a small number.

In addition, in order to impress Link, Franco prepared to move the Dynasty Promotion Company to Miami before the two formally signed a contract. He completely ignored that his wife, daughter, and old father were still in New York. It seemed that in his heart, Link More important than family.

Nora felt resentful when she thought about this. In order to end this farce, she flew to Miami herself and decided to talk to Link face to face and try to control this dangerous man in her hands.

 “Mrs. Dewar, please have some tea!”

Link put down a cup of scented tea and sat down opposite Nora Duva.

 “Call me Nora, Link, we can be considered acquaintances.”

 “OK, Nora.”

Link chuckled.

Nora Duva took a look at Link and found that after putting on his clothes, this guy looked really outstanding and had star quality. If he was packaged well, he might be able to develop in Hollywood like Dwayne Johnson.

Thinking of this, Nora Duva had some more thoughts about this visit.

"Link, I was also there when you played in Orlando last month. I thought you had great potential and suggested Franco sign you. Franco followed my advice and came to see you after the game. "

Link listened to Nora's words, but still didn't quite understand what the other party meant.

The couple are the presidents of two promotion companies, so he doesn't quite understand now whether Nora is talking to him as Franco's wife, or as the president of a major event promotion company.

Nora Duva seemed to have noticed his doubts and said with a smile: "Link, I have wanted to sign you for a long time, but something happened to the intermediate company, and Franco left the main event company with a group of people. , founded Dynasty Promotion Company, and my contact with you was also delayed by this incident.

I came to visit you today on behalf of the Main Event Company to discuss cooperation with you. If you are willing to come to the Main Event Promotion Company, we are willing to use the greatest sincerity to promote cooperation with you. I wonder if you are interested in talking? "

 The wife goes behind her husband's back to poach her husband?

Link thinks these two couples are interesting.

However, since the other party is negotiating with him on behalf of the main event, Link does not mind talking to the other party. After all, the main event is one of the three most powerful promotion companies in the boxing promotion world. If the conditions are right, cooperating with them is definitely better than working with them. It is not as strong as the promotion of the developed dynasty.

 When it comes to making money, he doesn't value friendship, only sincerity.

“Nora, you should also know the conditions offered to me by other companies. Do you know how big a contract the main event can give me?”

 “No worse than them.”

 Nora Duva smiled slightly, took out a document and handed it to Link.

  —

“Hey James, who’s that woman in the Maserati?”

Next door, Daniel from the hot dog shop was lying on the window, holding a stick of ice cream in his hand, and shouted to James who had just gone out.

 “Why do you eat ice cream all day long?”

James looked back at the store and said softly while drying his diving suit: "It's Ms. Nora Duva, Franco's wife."

 “Franco’s wife? What is she doing with Link?”

　　Michael from the surfboard shop also put down his work and asked.     “Of course it’s about work.”

James shook his diving suit and said.

 “Hehe, she looks very rich, like a rich woman.”

Michael winked and smiled evilly.

"you mean?"

Daniel's eyes widened and he looked at Link's Pontiac GTO parked outside the shop in surprise.

 “Hey, you two, don’t think too much, Link is not that kind of person.”

James said, shaking his fat face.

“Haha, we are joking. Wait, look! Is that person Franco?”

 Michael pointed to the promenade. A black Mercedes-Benz S350 was parked on the sandbank. Franco Duva hurriedly ran out of the car. His hair was messy in the wind, and his face was dark and smelly.

Michael and Daniel looked at each other and screamed, the fire of gossip in their eyes was burning. Why did this plot look like a CSI crime scene at eight o'clock .

“James, go and tell Link that Franco is here. Be careful that he has a gun. In the movie, people who capture rapes all carry guns.”

Michael yelled at James.

James heard you say there was a gun and ran into the store in a hurry. After running a few steps, he stopped and looked back and said, "I just said, they were just talking about work and nothing else. Why should you be careful?"

“But look at Franco, if Link and Nora had nothing else to do, why was he in such a hurry?”

Michael pointed at Franco who was running towards him and said.

James saw Franco who looked anxious and angry, and he was a little confused. Could it be that Link and Nora were discussing work in the room? But I just saw them talking about work.

“Hey James, is Nora here? Is Link here too?”

Franco hurried over and pulled James and asked.

James nodded, wiped the hot sweat from his face, and stammered: "Franco, don't get me wrong, they were just talking about work in the room, I was there just now, and they just came out, they did absolutely nothing else. Something, I promise to God.”

 “Talk about work?!”

Franco's expression became even worse, he held James tightly and said, "Did they take out a contract, a folder or something like that?"

 “Yes, they are looking at the documents.”

James nodded quickly.

"Oops!"

 Franco slapped his forehead, left James, and strode into the small shop. When he entered, he almost tripped over the sand board at the door.

 “What’s going on? Why am I confused?”

Daniel licked the ice cream and looked at the Baker's shop and said.

“Maybe it’s a financial dispute. Cases like this in the movie are very troublesome, and sometimes people are killed. Link is in trouble.”

Michael said with a heavy tone.

James shook his head, hesitated, and walked into the store cautiously.
