Conquer America, Start with a Boxing Champion

After some voices slandering Link appeared in the media, Link Music and Dynasty Promotions filed lawsuits against multiple media and news websites, believing that they had spread false statements and violated Link's reputation and demanded a public apology.

At the same time, the two companies also interviewed more than a dozen Latinos and African Americans who had contact with Link through the media.

Including Mario, Coach West, Morales, Coach Brooks, Manager Robinson, Tyson, Holyfield and others, they all said that Link is a very friendly person and is definitely not a racist.

The Miami Herald also reported that Link’s grandmother was an immigrant from Latin America. His grandmother’s skin was darker and she might have African ancestry.

When Link saw the news, he was shocked and quickly told Ivaca and Franco to stop it and continue to investigate. He might be hyped up as a black man. He would rather be black than become a black man. Black people.

After a period of public relations, there has been much less use of the term ‘racist’ to attack him on the Internet and in the media.

However, there are still some anti-fans who are taking the lead on the Internet, saying that Link Music’s announcement of delaying the release of a new single was an excuse specifically made because they were worried that it would not be able to compete with Jay-Z’s new song.

Link didn't comment on this and was still training in the boxing ring.

"77.3KG!"

Link looked at the number on the electronic scale and shook his head. His weight had gained a little more.

After the game, Selena, Catherine, and Mrs. Andrea often came over. Every time they came, they would bring a lot of delicious food. He also has a bit of a foodie attribute in him. When he sees delicious food, he will bear it. Don't hesitate to taste more.

For ordinary people, a height of 188 centimeters and a weight of 77 kilograms are just right, and they will not look very strong. However, ordinary people's bodies and stomachs are full of fat and excess water.

For boxers, fat and water are burdensome, which will not only affect the division of weight classes, but also affect the boxer's performance on the stage. Therefore, it is necessary to train every day to get rid of fat and water and maintain the body fat rate to Below 10%.

Link's body fat rate was measured last week, and it was less than 6%. Part of the weight gained now is also solid muscle.

However, there will be two combined boxing title fights during the year. The standard weight of a super middleweight boxer is 168 pounds, which is less than 76.2 kilograms. Before the game, he needs to lose one kilogram of muscle. This is very difficult for him with a body fat rate of only 6%. It's not a small project.

Link came to the training area and continued to lift weights.

During this period, Dino came to discuss things with him.

Mario is preparing to participate in the internal qualifying competition of the WBC cruiserweight organization this month and officially become a professional boxer.

Dino told him that Mario also planned to become a singer. He wanted to practice boxing and sing at the same time like him. With amphibious development, he could also increase his exposure and get more appearance fees.

Dino asked him if this plan was feasible?

Link was speechless. He could become a famous singer in such a short period of time. In addition to the aura of world boxing champion and Olympic Games, he also had an endless stream of good songs. He had a girlfriend who was a singer, knew how to create music, and had a good voice.

What's more important is that he is handsome enough to attract many female fans.

Mario has an average image and average voice, and has no potential to be a singer at all.

"Stop thinking nonsense. You have more time for Mario to train and establish himself in the boxing world as soon as possible. There is no use thinking about anything else."

Link said while wiping his sweat.

"Isn't it even possible?"

Dino is Mario's manager, and he also wants to make a lot of money with Link like Franco Simon. In the last boxing championship challenge, Link earned more than 10 million, and Dynasty Promotions can get a share of three More than a million, making money too fast.

"No, you are more suitable to be a singer than Mario."

Link looked at the tattoos all over his body. He looked like a rock singer.

"snort!"

Mario pulled a face, came over from behind the weightlifting machine, and said unhappily, "I can sing and dance. In the "Despacito" video, tens of thousands of netizens left messages on the YouTube website praising me for being the best dancer. I debuted as a singer, which shows that I have a market in the music industry.”

Link smiled softly. The beach version of "Despacito" had more than 50 million views on YouTube and became one of the top ten music videos on the website. James, Mario, and Michael, who served as backup dancers, also gained a lot of fame because of it. Become a little internet celebrity.

I heard from James that Baker's shop is now the most famous diving shop in Miami Beach. People who come to dive need to make a reservation a week in advance, and many people come to him for autographs.

Many local shopping malls held events and invited several of them to dance in the store. The appearance fee was tens of thousands of dollars, which was more cost-effective than opening a store. Michael at the surfboard store was considering whether to debut as a star.

In that video, apart from Link and the great beauty Ivaca, Mario was the most popular.

The guy shook his big belly, danced seriously, and looked confident, which made many people laugh and praise him for being a funny guy.

"Okay, you can try it too. If you're lucky, you might become a big internet celebrity."

"Can you write a song for me?"

Mario grinned.

Link looked at him in surprise and finally understood the purpose of this guy's coming. His answer was of course impossible. Not to mention that Mario couldn't sing. Even if he could sing, he didn't have a suitable song in his mind.

After sending Mario away who looked unwilling, Link continued to sparring with his sparring partners Tubbs and Curry.

Another sparring partner, Morales, is currently competing in the 2009 Golden Gloves Championship in North Carolina.

Now that we have successfully entered the finals, we will meet two old rivals, Jones Fullers and Andrzej. Whether they can win the championship is still unknown.

After training in the afternoon, Link took a shower in the bathroom and took out his phone from the closet. He found that his phone had received dozens of congratulatory messages from Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Emma Roberts, and Wiz Khali. France, Carrie Underwood, Faith Hill, Doutzen Kroes and other old and new friends.

When these people sent messages, they simply said congratulations, said he was awesome, and gave him all sorts of compliments.

But no one told me what happened.

Ding dong!

This time, even Taylor, who was attending a concert in Seattle, sent a message, saying in an excited tone: 'Dear, you are so amazing, I am so proud of you.'

Link looked confused.

The situation in the music scene has been relatively chaotic in the past two weeks. There are also many online fans who are using Jay-Z's single "D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)" to win the championship, crushing "I'm The One" in weekly sales data, and Link Music has been He was forced to announce the delay in releasing the single and other things to mock him.

He didn't want to care about these things, so he just immersed himself in training in the boxing ring and rarely went out to do public activities. But now he was receiving congratulations from a lot of people. Where did the joy come from?

"What happened? I received a lot of congratulatory text messages, but no one told me the reason."

"Didn't you see the latest issue of Billboard? Your single won the number one spot!"

"I'm The One won the championship?"

Link was surprised. In the eighth week after its release, the sales of "I'm The One" in physical stores and music platforms fell below 20,000 copies. It also fell out of the top ten of the rap chart. The sales potential of this song has almost been exhausted. All.

Even if the company spends millions more on promotion, it will be difficult for it to reach the top 50 on the Billboard singles chart, let alone number one.

"It's not I'm The One, it's Give Me Reason, No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, don't you know? Honey, can you stop training in the boxing ring every day? You're also a singer, so much more Understand some of the dynamics in the circle.”

Taylor called and said.

"Give Me Reason? Number one single?"

Link suddenly remembered something. "Transformers 2" was released last Friday.

His studio single "Give Me Reason" was released four weeks ago. Since he released the MV video resource in March, it did not attract much attention when the single was officially released. It was only posted on the website two weeks before its release. It reached No. 92 and No. 96 on the Billboard singles chart, but was kicked off the chart in the third week.

Was this made popular by the movie?
