Chapter 122: On the Streets of New York

After leaving the bar, Link took advantage of the good weather and drove around New York.

He had been in New York for more than three months, busy with training and competitions, and had never appreciated the scenery along the streets.

Today happened to be a sunny day, the sky was azure blue, occasionally a plane flew across the sky, and the long trail of exhaust took a long time to...

Chapter 121: Picking Up a Leaked Script

I will run, I will climb, I will soar

I'm undefeated

Jumping out of my skin, pull the chord

Yeah, I believe it

After seeing off Director Darren, Link continued to read scripts at the bar. On the small stage, a female singer with heavy makeup was performing Taylor's new song "Dream It Possible" with a guitar. She sang well.

Unfortunately, she wasn't a familia...

Chapter 120: Audition for a Role

After the match, Link returned to New York and transferred the $4.2 million he earned into his account. The prize money for this match was $10 million.

According to the pre-match agreement, he and Tyson split it 7:3, with the winner taking the larger share. After splitting it with Dynasty Promotions 6:4, he only had $4.2 million left.

He then contacted Franco and bought the Y...

Chapter 119: Cocktail Party

For Link, the biggest gain from defeating Tyson was not the large amount of prize money, but the experience of competing with a heavyweight boxer.

After competing with Tyson, he also knew his strengths and weaknesses compared to heavyweight boxers, and he would have more confidence when facing higher-weight opponents in the future.

In addition, Tyson was a legendary boxer and...

Chapter 118: The Boxing Champion Concedes

"Link, this seems to be the first time you've finished a round since you switched to professional boxing. How do you feel?" Dino asked, fanning himself with a towel in the corner.

"Not bad!" Link replied, taking a sip of water.

"Link, keep going. If you keep fighting like this, Tyson won't last a few rounds," Coach Brooks said.

Link nodded. His advantages over Tyson wer...

Chapter 117: Punch to Flesh

"Boxing!"

The match began. When the referee waved his arm, Tyson roared and threw a punch at Link. The muscles in his arms bulged, and the blood vessels on his neck and forehead protruded. His whole body became somewhat ferocious.

Link could have dodged this punch, but he wanted to test Tyson's strength. When Tyson's fist came, he crossed his arms in front of his chest to def...

Chapter 116: Fight Against Tyson

While he was preparing for the competition, Taylor's second album "Fearless" was also released.

In its first week, it topped the Billboard 200 album chart with 650,000 copies sold, becoming a huge hit.

Whether on the streets, in supermarkets, or on radio and TV, you could hear songs from "Fearless", including "The Way I Loved You", "You Belong With Me", "Love Story", and the ...

Chapter 115: Script Invitation

"Link, are all four of these songs written by you?"

In the Link Music office, producer Graeme Goodall looked at the sheet music and lyrics in his hands and asked Link in surprise.

"What do you think?"

"Very good, especially this song 'Chasing the Sun'. It perfectly fits all the elements of popular songs in the current market. I dare say that after it is released, the sa...

Chapter 114: Link Music

After buying a box of fresh Swiss matsutake mushrooms and prosciutto from the Walmart supermarket next door, Link returned home and made four dishes and one soup. Just as he was about to send a message to Taylor asking her when she would be home, he heard the sound of the door unlocking.

Taylor walked in with a guitar case, her blonde hair in a ponytail, wearing a white spliced jac...

Chapter 113: Reverse Recruitment

"Link, let's continue our previous conversation," Ivanka turned to him and said.

"Joining Trump Entertainment?"

"Yes, joining Trump Entertainment. We will join forces to break into the music industry. With the strength of Trump Entertainment, we will definitely make you a superstar in the music industry. Do you agree?" Ivanka took a step closer to him, her eyes fixed on him.<...

Chapter 112: Invitation to Cooperate

"Link, take a look. This is the schedule for your match with Tyson."

Ivanka pushed a document towards him.

Link opened it and looked. His match with Tyson was scheduled for December 15th, to be held at the Trump Plaza Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

This casino was famous for its retro architecture, including the Taj Mahal and pyramids. It had a large interior spac...

Chapter 111: A Date with a Beauty

Even without Ivanka's invitation, Link would have gone to the scene to watch the match between Evander Holyfield and the "Eastern Giant" Nikolai Valuev.

Not only him, but also Dino, Nora Duva, Coach Brooks, and the professional boxers at the training ground were planning to go and see it.

This was because Holyfield was the top boxer under Main Events, and Valuev was a fierce ...

Chapter 110: Record Companies

"Link, you're so popular now. Many record company agents have approached me, wanting to discuss signing with you. Take a look at these, are there any record companies you like?"

At noon, while he was lifting weights in the equipment area, Simon came up to him with a stack of documents.

During this time, he was still training at the boxing gym. When Taylor or Selena had time, ...

Chapter 109: On the Billboard

In the living room, Taylor was sitting on the sofa, holding an acoustic guitar in her arms, strumming the melody of "Despacito." Seeing the two of them return to the small living room, she pressed the strings and asked, "What were you doing?"

"Selena said you're very tall, she envies you." Link put down his backpack and laughed.

Selena puffed out her cheeks and glared at him,...

Chapter 108: The Two Girls Meet

After the delicious seafood soup, both he and Taylor felt warm, not just physically, but also in their stomachs. Taylor's pink cheeks became even rosier.

As darkness fell, the computer in the living room was still playing "Despacito." He held Taylor in his arms, swaying gently to the rhythm of the music.

Despacito

I want to undress you slowly with kisses

Firmo en ...

Chapter 107: Daily Life of Cohabitation

Ding dong~ Ding dong~

The doorbell rang, Link got up to open the door, and Taylor stood at the door, carrying a guitar and holding a lot of food and drinks in her arms, her mouth shouting, "Quick, take this."

"I just bought some groceries, why did you buy so much more?" Link said as he took the things from her.

"The songs for the 'Fearless' album are all recorded, and I...

Chapter 106: Song Goes Viral

After the match, Link stayed in Miami for over a week before returning to the Big Apple, New York.

By the time he returned to New York, the WBA super middleweight championship hype had died down.

The news reports about boxing matches were all about the heavyweight world championship fight that had ended last week, where 'The Rock' Hashim Rahman challenged WBO-IBF champion Wla...

Chapter 105: Despacito

"Hey, Simon, who's that girl? She's got an amazing body," Michael asked, nudging Simon while holding a beer and looking towards Link on the beach.

"You know the Trump International Hotel in Palm Beach? She's from that family," Simon replied, bobbing his head to the music.

"Whoa, the Trump heiress? She's a real rich girl. Is Link going on a date with her? Damn, I wish I were L...

Chapter 104: Miss Trump

After returning from the sea and sending off the boxing fans disguised as tourists, Link opened his phone and received a congratulatory message from China, along with two missed calls.

The name on the caller ID was Crystal Liu, the Chinese actress he met on the plane when he went to the Olympics.

Link sat back in his beach chair and called back. He heard a sleepy voice on the...

## Chapter 103: Breaking Records

"Mr. Link Baker, congratulations on becoming the WBA world champion. How do you feel right now?"

After the match, a group of reporters from TV stations and newspapers surrounded Link below the ring.

"Feels great, I'm very excited," Link said, draping the gold belt over his shoulder and wiping sweat with a towel.

"Mr. Baker, did you think you would defeat Mikkel Kessler ...

## Chapter 102: World Champion

"Hello, Mikkel! Welcome to Miami for the match," Link greeted his opponent in the ring.

"Hello!" Mikkel replied expressionlessly with a nod.

The referee stepped forward to announce the rules of the match. After ensuring both fighters had no objections, he swung his arm down forcefully.

"Boxing!"

With the referee's signal, the cheers from the audience abruptly fell...

## Chapter 101: On and Off the Stage

After resting for just one day, the finals began. On the day of the match, Link appeared at the Hard Rock Stadium wearing a golden cloak and boxing shorts with his name and the WBA logo on the waistband. However, today’s main attraction was not just Link, but also the numerous celebrities in the audience.

The most notable was billionaire and political rising star Mr. Tompson. Tod...

Chapter 100: Battle of the Kings

In the tropical humidity of Miami in October, the air was thick with anticipation. Linck Baker stood alone on his hotel balcony, gazing down at the bustling city below. The final step towards becoming the WBA Super Middleweight World Champion was within his grasp.

Linck had knocked out Canada’s top super middleweight, Jean Pascal, in 42 seconds, marking his 8th win with 8 KOs, 7 ...

Chapter 99: The Intercontinental Champion

Linck knocked out Canada's top super middleweight, Jean Pascal, in 42 seconds, achieving his 8th win with 8 KOs, seven of which were within 30 seconds, tying the professional record set by "The Cannon" Shannon Briggs. Briggs had achieved 7 wins within 30 seconds in his career, with his fastest being just 3 seconds.

Although Linck didn't set a new record, his performance left many p...

### Chapter 98: Knockout Punch

“Link is coming out!”

“Go, Link!”

After the pre-fight checks, Link led his team out of the tunnel. As he stepped to the exit, a spotlight illuminated his path brightly.

Cheers erupted from the audience as boxing fans shouted their support.

Link waved his fist toward the stands. After signing at the referee’s table, he strode confidently to the ring.

### Chapter 97: The Era of Seconds

“Katherine, do you know? Link is so excessive—he slept through 65 minutes of a 93-minute movie and even snored in the middle. It’s driving me crazy,” Selena complained to Katherine as she stormed into the nanny car.

“Sorry, the cinema is just too comfortable for sleeping.”

Link chuckled.

He had trained too long at the gym last night, didn’t take a nap at n...

*Chapter 96: The Master of Cinema*

Entering the Metropolitan Theater, Selena was eager to take the stage, give a speech, and perform to promote the film. Link found a corner and took a seat, feeling a wave of exhaustion wash over him. He leaned back on the sofa and soon fell asleep.

How long he slept, he wasn’t sure, but he was awakened when someone tapped his arm.

“Hey, buddy, wake up!”

Link opene...

*Chapter 95: Premiere Ceremony*

After dinner, due to the overcast weather, it was already getting dark before six o'clock.

Link saw Taylor in the living room and was relieved to have company for the evening. He wouldn't have to spend the night at the gym.

However, Taylor was a workaholic. She wanted to practice the new song on the piano, optimize the melody a bit more, and aim to produce a complete score by...

*Chapter 94: Dream It Possible*

"Link, you're back."

After the match, as Link was changing his shoes at the entrance, a voice called out from the living room. A tall figure immediately rushed over and threw her arms around his neck, nearly knocking him into the wall.

Taylor had arrived in the morning, intending to write songs at his place, so Link had left his apartment to her while he went to the match. 2024-08-08 09:49:50 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 93: The Aftermath

“Link, is it still raining in New York?”

In the car, Link glanced out the window. It was overcast, like a child whose favorite toy had been taken away, with tears hanging in their eyes, ready to fall at any moment. He found it strange that Franco would call just to ask about the weather.

Link replied that it wasn't raining.

Franco said, "Link, are you having trouble...
