Conquer America, Start with a Boxing Champion

After leaving the airport, Link carried his sports backpack and got into the commercial car driven by the driver Bob. His assistant Anna was also waiting in the car.

"Boss, I just called Miss Iwaka and told me about giving away gold medals to fans. She also thinks this is a great way to promote it."

Ms. Anna said from the seat opposite, carrying her work bag.

Link nodded and drank a glass of lemon ice water. His body felt much cooler. He wiped his hands with a wet wipe.

"I just heard from a reporter that the second album topped the list in terms of weekly sales. How is the single charting?"

“Empire State of Mind takes the number one spot on the singles chart this week, with the Black Eyed Peas’ “I Gotta Feeling” at number two, “Believer” moving up one spot to number three, and “This Is Me” ranking at number three. Ninth, "Keep On Movin'" is at No. 18. Counting the originally released "Give me reason", there are nine songs on the list.

"Rolling Stone" magazine rated this album 4.2 points. On iTunes and Amazon Music Store, the album's ratings are 8.5 points, which has a very good reputation. "

Anna smiled.

Link crossed his fingers and nodded, "This is all good news. Is there any negative news?"

Anna thought for a moment and said: "Yes! Some media are hyping up your private life, saying that your private life is chaotic. In addition to Taylor, you are also with Evaka, Amber, Emma Watson, Doutzen Kroes and others. Stay in love and say you have hundreds of secret lovers.”

Link smiled nonchalantly. Every celebrity had tidbits, and it didn't have much impact on him.

"In addition, two women in Miami came forward and said that they were your ex-girlfriends who were abandoned by you after you became famous. One of them said that you were the father of her child and asked you for alimony."

Anna stared at him and said.

Link raised his eyebrows. Before Link was assassinated, he had four ex-girlfriends, but they didn't get along for long. He was really not sure whether they had children.

"is that true?"

"After the news broke, Ivaca immediately arranged for people to investigate. Only the girl named Sunny spent a few days with you, but the child was fake. Someone gave them a thousand dollars and asked them to lie to reporters."

Anna said.

Link also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he didn't expect to be a father.

"Any other bad news?"

"Yes, there are many rumors on the Internet that our album sales are fake. It is because the distribution company is spending money to boost the sales, so we have such high data. Some people say that your second album song is suspected of plagiarism, and they are going to sue you in the local court.

The legal department is currently looking for the source of the rumors and has filed lawsuits against several social platforms, accusing them of inadequate supervision and holding relevant personnel legally accountable. "

Link nodded. He was not worried about spreading rumors about his sales volume, but spreading rumors about plagiarism was very vicious and wanted to completely destroy him.

But this also reminded him that he should be more cautious when borrowing songs in the future.

You can provide music clips or song ideas, and leave it to Graeme and Mars to complete them and write a roughly similar song. Depending on your reputation and singing ability, you can still sell it well.

Or pay others to write songs. He has such songs in his first and second album.

If someone really plagiarizes it, the money earned from selling the records won’t be enough to compensate.

The car returned to the Santa Monica beach house, and Taylor invited a group of friends who lived in Los Angeles to have a party at the villa.

Celebrating his victory in the World Championships and his second album’s weekly sales is a double blessing.

Guests include Blake Lively, Emma Roberts, Katy Perry, Paul Walker, Joaquin Phoenix, Lady Gaga, Doutzen Kroes, Jamie King and more.

Link looked around and found that his and Taylor's social circle was quite small, and they only had a few fixed friends.

"Link, why are you here alone?"

Fruit girl Katy Perry came over with a goblet.

Today is a beach party. Everyone is wearing cool clothes. Link only wears beach shorts. Katy Perry wears the coolest one. She is wearing a red string bikini that barely covers her heavy breasts and plump buttocks. She is over 1.7 meters tall. He's tall and has a hot figure.

Her hair was originally black, but was recently dyed blonde. With her face of British descent, she looked much more beautiful.

"I'm going to Vancouver for a book signing tomorrow, so I need to rest in advance."

Link greeted.

"I heard that you signed more than 10,000 albums at each autograph session. That's amazing. My fans suggested that I learn from you. Link, you directly made it more difficult to be a singer."

"It's my pleasure."

Link joked.

Katy Perry sat on the beach chair next to her and chatted for a while. She hesitated and said, "Link, the last time I helped Jay-Z recommend a single, it was an arrangement by the company."

Link raised his hand to stop him and said, "Katie, I understand. No need to explain. Our friendship is a personal relationship and does not involve business matters. Those things are boring."

Katy Perry is a signed singer under Capitol Music Group. She has cooperated with the record companies of Jay-Z, Kanye and others. It is normal to help Jay-Z promote.

When he released "Give me reason", the other party also helped repost and promote it.

"Link, do you want to continue to compete with East Coast rap? They have a lot of people and a wide network of contacts. It will be detrimental to you to continue to compete. Have you ever thought about reconciliation? Rihanna and I are also friends. We can make peace between you. "The messenger."

Katy Perry leaned on the beach chair and looked at him sideways. Her plumpness followed her movements, revealing more scenery to him. It made people think of the allusion of "the tip of the iceberg". What was exposed above was just The very small part that is not exposed is larger.

Link shook his head and said: "Katie, it's not that I want to compete with them, it's that they don't want me to win, and I'm a person who doesn't like losing unless they are willing to give up competing for the charts and stop deliberately suppressing my songs and music. album, I will consider reconciling with them.”

"Yes, Jay-Z and Kanye are both too strong, and they are guys who refuse to admit defeat. But after you competed for the charts, the music scene became a lot more lively. Now I watch the news of your competition for the charts every day to see who wins. lose."

Katy Perry laughed.

Lady Gaga heard Katy Perry's words nearby and smiled: "Yes, the news about Link and Jay-Z is very popular, and many people want to see it. This also greatly reduces the exposure of other albums. This year's release The singers on the album are all complaining that the two of them are competing for the charts, and everyone loses.”

Katy Perry laughed and agreed with Lady Gaga's words.

Link also smiled. Before he and Jay-Z released their albums, the media focused on the two of them, wanting to see who would win and who would lose in this ‘battle for the charts’.

After the competition for the list began, he and Jay-Z worked together to make a lot of big news and provide the media with sufficient reporting material.

There are even media outlets that have a special column called "Link VS Jay-Z", which updates the sales of the two's albums, changes in song rankings, and the two's activities on the previous day every day.

The two took up too many media resources when they were competing for the list, which also caused the albums of other singers to be greatly reduced in exposure, because the news about them promoting the album was less readable and interesting than Link and Jay-Z's competition for the list. The news is worse.

In addition, Link and Jay-Z are both big stars, with great influence in the United States and many fans. The competition between the two is equivalent to bundled promotion, 1+1\u003e2, and others cannot compare at all.

"Link, can you still pass Jay-Z on the album chart next week?"

Katy Perry laughed.

"I don't know, but I'll try my best."

"Come on! I hope you continue to top the album chart next week."

Katy Perry and Lady Gaga toasted and laughed.

Link also raised a champagne glass and clinked it with the two of them.
