Across America, Starting with the Boxing Champion Chapter 617: disputes and appointments

Chapter 617 Disputes and Dating

After being reported by many media, Link’s photos frequently appeared in the newspapers. Many people knew that there was a boxing champion named Link in China after reading newspapers and CCTV5 boxing match programs.

The media also mentioned in the report that Link was the shot put champion of the Universiade and the domestic record holder in the men's shot put event.

 After everyone read the news, they were even more impressed by Link.

Especially among women, because of Link’s handsome appearance, slender figure, and outstanding temperament, many women began to pay attention to his news and gradually became his fans.

“Old Wang, this is the Link you are talking about. He does look handsome, but it’s not as exaggerated as you said.”

 In a courtyard house in Dongcheng District, Liu Xuan looked at Link's photo in the "China Youth Daily" and shouted.

 There is an exclusive interview with Link in the newspaper, about 5,000 words long. It talks about Link’s family situation, his journey of getting involved with boxing, and the situation of the World Championships.

There are also three photos of Link, one at the competition, which highlights Link’s muscles and strong physique, a close-up of Link holding a gold medal on the stage and raising his fist, and a training photo of Link wearing a sports t-shirt.

 The second picture is a frontal photo. You can clearly see his face. He has short, delicate and energetic black hair, a high nose, and sharp features. There is sweat on his face. He looks very masculine and handsome.

"That's because you haven't seen Link in person. He has a very good temperament. He has an elegant aristocratic look when he moves his hands and feet. He has a gentle smile and makes people feel very comfortable. In short, when you see him In person, you will think he is dozens of times more handsome than in the photos.”

Director Wang Xiaoshuai turned over the script and said.

“The newspaper said that Link was from a rural area and often starved when he was a child. How could he be a noble?”

Liu Xuan didn’t believe it and kicked Wang Xiaoshuai who was sitting on the couch opposite him. “You said you wanted him to make a movie. When will you let him join the cast?”

 “The script hasn’t been revised yet, so don’t worry.”

Director Wang Xiaoshuai originally planned to ask Link to play the role of a stowaway who lived in the United States for a period of time in the new movie "Second Brother", but Link was not interested.

He had no choice but to create a better character for Link in the next script to stimulate Link's interest and love for movies.

If Link becomes a movie star in the future, everyone will know that he discovered the talent.

“If you don’t want him to make a movie, it’s okay to ask him to come and sit at home. Anyway, he’s in Beijing, so it’s convenient to go back and forth.”

Liu Xuan said.

Director Wang Xiaoshuai put down the script, stared at his girlfriend and said, "Why did you become more interested in Link than me after seeing Link's photo? Did you fall in love with him at first sight and want to dump me?"

 “Get out! What nonsense are you talking about!”

Liu Xuan picked up a magazine and threw it at him. Feeling upset, he picked up a fly swatter and pretended to slap him.

"Don't fight, don't fight. I'm just kidding. I'm much more handsome than Link. How could you be willing to leave me?"

Director Wang made a joke and saw that Liu Xuan was still angry, "Okay, I'll call Link later and invite him to come and sit at home to see if he has time."

“I wonder if he has a girlfriend. He is so handsome and he is an athlete. What do you think of introducing Yuanyuan to him?”

Liu Xuan said.

"You are really thinking about arranging a marriage for someone before you even meet them in person. You women are thinking about it day by day. Okay, I agree."

Before Wang Dao finished speaking, he saw Liu Xuan holding up the fly swatter, so he changed his mind and agreed.

When Link received a call from Wang Xiaoshuai, he was talking to coach Zhao Liwei in the office of the Sports Center.

Half an hour ago, an agent who claimed to be from Star Sports came to him and said that he wanted to sign a contract with him. The signing bonus was 50,000 yuan, and the income sharing of the game was based on the ordinary boxer model, with a maximum of 50%.

Link refused on the spot, and the other party did not bother.

 But not long after, he received a call from Deputy Director Liu of the Sports Center, who said a lot of good things about Star Sports and hoped that he would consider it more.

Link said that he could consider it, but the signing bonus offered by Xingyao was too small.

 Deputy Supervisor Liu asked him how much he wanted.

Link said that during the competition in Bangkok, he had contact with the top five boxing promotion companies in the world such as Top Promotion Company and Arena Sports. Several companies wanted to sign him. The offer he made was US$5 million. If Star Star If you are sincere, you can consider his proposal.

Deputy Manager Liu snorted and asked him to think carefully before answering.

Shortly after talking to Deputy Director Liu, coach Zhao Liwei suddenly found him.

 said that the 30,000 yuan that the Sports Center was originally planning to reward him suddenly turned into 500 yuan. He called to inquire. The reply was that the Sports Center encountered some financial difficulties and temporarily reduced the bonus amount. He hoped that he and Link would understand.

Link talked about the signing of the contract with Xingyao Company.

 Coach Zhao Liwei had nothing to do after hearing this.

Link said that the Handong Provincial Boxing Team has called him. If the sports center here is in financial difficulty and cannot support him financially, he will consider transferring to the Handong Boxing Team.

Coach Zhao Liwei’s expression changed after hearing this, and asked him not to worry, saying that he would report the situation to the superiors and would never let him suffer.

Before the two of them finished chatting, Link's phone rang. Director Wang Xiaoshuai congratulated him on the phone, asked him what he was doing, and invited him to sit at home when he had time.

Link agreed and said that he would go there when he had time.

Coach Zhao Liwei continued to talk about other things, such as media interviews and several advertising companies inviting him to shoot commercials.

 He is now affiliated with the Sports Center, which will help him handle some media and business matters and earn a share of the money.

After asking about the cost of advertising endorsements, Link agreed to be interviewed by the media and turned down the endorsements. The reason was that the endorsement fees were too small and the cycle was too long. He would rather earn less now than be taken advantage of.

At the same time, he also felt that the Sports Center was unreliable and that he should find a professional agent or assistant to help handle these matters. However, these matters were more important and there was no suitable candidate among the people he knew.

 This needs to be done slowly.

Just after hanging up the phone with Director Wang, the phone rang again. It was a call from South Korea. The caller was Wen Caiyuan, a reporter from the school newspaper whom he met at the Universiade.

Moon Chae-won said that she saw the news that he won the World Championships. In a cute voice, he said congratulations to Oppa and praised him for being so awesome. He also said that he also has many fans in South Korea.

Link smiled lightly, but he didn't take it seriously. The boxing world championship has a very average international influence. Even if the Korean media reports it, there won't be many reports, and the same goes for fans.

Link asked Wen Caiyuan how she was doing at school and invited her to travel to China.

Moon Chae-won said she wanted to be a film actress and was planning to apply for film studies at several universities in Seoul. However, her parents did not agree and wanted her to continue studying Western painting. She is now very troubled.

Link remembered that the other party would do well in the Korean film and television industry in the future, so he encouraged her to pursue her dream and call him if she needed help.

Wen Caiyuan happily agreed and called Oppa a few more times. At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Link left the sports center and was about to go on a date with Zhang Zilin. On the subway, he received a call from coach Zhao Liwei, saying that his competition bonus had been re-approved. It was 30,000 yuan, a penny less, and he wanted him. Come and claim your prize when you are free.

Link said yes.

 While he was on the phone, several girls around him stared at him. Some of them boldly walked directly across from him and looked at him.

 When he hung up the phone, several girls asked him if he was Link, the boxing champion Link.

Link said yes.

Several girls excitedly asked him for his autograph.

Link smiled and wrote artistic signatures for several fans.

  —

Zhang Zilin’s home is near Ding’anmen in the North Second Ring Road, but today she is training at the New Silk Road Model Company in Chaoyang District.

Link came to the downstairs of New Silk Road Company and saw Zhang Zilin coming downstairs, wearing a white art T-shirt, a light blue waist skirt, and a ponytail swaying. When he saw him, he had a sweet smile on his face, and he was in good condition.

ˆA few female models appeared together with Zhang Zilin.

Two of them are relatively familiar. One is the supermodel Du Juan who later played the heroine of "Partners in China", and the other is the recently popular actress Yu Na. The other is the winner of the 2000 New Silk Road Model Contest. Last year, she won the hit drama " What can I do to save you, my love" became popular and is currently an artist under New Silk Road.

The remaining models are also in good shape and above average in appearance, but they are younger and their clothes are more fashionable and beautiful for this era.

　　When a few people appeared on the street, the eyes of the surrounding pedestrians were attracted. Women were envious and men were greedy.

 “Link, when did you arrive?”

 Zhang Zilin asked with a smile.

 “Just arrived!”

Link said.

“Wow, Zi Lin, it turns out your boyfriend is Link. You’ve done a great job keeping it secret.”

 “Zilin, you look like a perfect match.”

“Zilin, you must feel very safe if you find a boxing champion as your boyfriend.”

 Several women started joking when they saw Link.

 “I didn’t hide it, so there was no way it could be kept secret.”

Zhang Zilin held Link's arm and stood side by side with him. Zhang Zilin was wearing flat shoes and Link was wearing sneakers. The difference in height was almost invisible.

Link smiled and greeted a few people.

“Zilin, I’m going to the Sanlitun Bar. Do you want to come with me and Link?”

Yu Na glanced at Link and asked with a smile.

“Sister Na, Link has just returned from abroad. We are going to eat first and walk around casually for a while.”

 Zhang Zilin said.

 “Okay, I won’t interrupt your love affair.”

Yu Na joked, said goodbye to several colleagues, and got into a car parked on the roadside.

Zhang Zilin also said goodbye to several other people, and walked hand in hand with Link on the street. They walked from East Street to Tongluogu Lane and found a well-decorated French restaurant to sit down.

“After the World Championships, are there any competitions this year?”

 Zhang Zilin asked.

“There will be an Asian Track and Field Championships at the end of September to compete for qualifications for next year’s Olympic Games. The track and field project office asked me to participate and asked me to practice more and strive to get a good result in next year’s Olympic Games.”

Link looked at the menu and asked Zhang Zilin what he wanted to eat.

 Zhang Zilin said he could order whatever he wanted.

Link ordered a few common French set meals, such as steak, foie gras, matsutake soup, and Chinese cold dishes.

The reason why he brought Zhang Zilin here to eat was not to show off, but because this restaurant was quieter and more convenient for dates.

“Do you really know French?”

 Zhang Zilin asked in surprise when he heard him talking to the waiter in French.

Link glanced at her, "Last time I spoke French, do you think I was lying to you?"

“No, I just think you are very powerful. You are so good at boxing and you can speak English and French. Compared with you, I feel so ordinary.”

Zhang Zilin held his finger and said coquettishly.

 “Be confident, how can a girl I like be ordinary?”

Link said.

“It seems like this, wait, no, what does it mean to be liked by you is not ordinary? What kind of praise is this? You are praising yourself.”

 Zhang Zilin pointed at his nose and said dissatisfiedly.

Link raised the corner of his lips and said that there was a lot of prize money in the tournament and he was going to buy a house in Kyoto. He asked her if she had any suggestions.

 Zhang Zilin asked him if he had enough money?

Link said that he should pay the down payment first, and there are also bonuses for the Asian Track and Field Championships. There will be several competitions next year. As long as he participates in a few more games, there will be no problem in buying a house.

 Zhang Zilin said that the nearby environment is good and suggested that he buy it here.

 It's just that housing prices in Chaoyang District are relatively expensive. Ordinary commercial houses cost 7,000 to 8,000 yuan, and more expensive ones cost tens of thousands.

Link asked her to have time to look at the house together and make it their love nest in the future.

 Zhang Zilin blushed and agreed.
