Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion-Chapter 584 - 442: The Competition Begins

"OK! The match is about to start; next, let's switch the camera to the Hung Hom Sports Hall and see how many familiar faces we have today."

Chen Nianzu, a TVB presenter, stood in the broadcast room and spoke into the camera microphone.

Before the camera switched back to the sports hall, reporters and cameramen from the television station captured scenes of tens of thousands of spectators entering the sports hall one after another outside the hall.

Among these people, there were many celebrities and socialites. In the parking lot of the sports hall, luxury cars were everywhere, some carrying badges that many had heard of but never seen.

In addition, many foreigners had arrived at the Hong Kong Island airport, docks, stations, and hotels around the Hung Hom Sports Hall today.

There were tourists from Europe and the United States, people from Southeast Asia, as well as rich merchants and celebrities from Japan, South Korea, and Mainland.

To cater to tourists from abroad and bolster local consumption while combating ticket scalpers, the Culture and Tourism Bureau reserved three thousand tickets in advance to sell to foreign spectators holding train or plane tickets.

This made the tickets for the match even harder to come by, with the price for ordinary tickets on the black market already surpassing ten thousand Hong Kong dollars each by the morning.

The TVB presenter mentioned these circumstances during the news broadcast, aiming to inform the television audience about the scale of the match and the level of attention it was receiving.

At the same time, it could arouse the curiosity of the audience, who may wonder how many celebrities were in the crowd? How would the boxing match go?

Stirring up the audience's curiosity in the promotion can enhance revenue from PPV and online broadcasting, highlighting the role of promotion in boxing events.

After the camera switched back to the sports hall, the TVB cameraman first focused the live broadcast camera on the two boxers.

Presenter Chen Nianzu then began to introduce Link and Belrut Shumenov.

"Alright, the camera has switched to the inside of the sports hall, and we see the two boxers are in position, getting ready for the weigh-in.

The boxer wearing white shorts and white gloves is the current WBA Light Heavyweight Champion Belrut Shumenov, hailing from Central Asia's Kazakhstan, an Asian champion.

He is 28 years old, with a height of 188 centimeters and a reach of 188 centimeters, boasting a professional record of 11 wins in 12 battles. He won the Light Heavyweight World Champion title in the fewest number of fights and is known for his left punches and upper hook punches.

At a boxing match in Berlin, Germany, in 2010, he defeated the former WBA Light Heavyweight Champion Gabriel Campi and claimed the WBA Light Heavyweight throne."

Standing opposite him was the boxer...."

"Link! Link!"

Before the presenter could introduce him, when the live cameras projected Link's image onto the big screen at the stadium, the audience erupted into cheers.

There were shouts in Mandarin, Cantonese, English, Korean, Japanese, and other languages, calling out Link's name.

Link also looked up and waved his fist at the camera, and the cheers from the audience grew even louder and more tumultuous.

"Wow, listen! The entire audience is shouting Link's name. Link is so popular! Yes, Link is not only the most popular boxer in the world right now but also a top singer in the music industry.

The songs that swept across Hong Kong like 'see you again', 'legends never die' were composed and sung by him, as well as hit songs 'all of me', 'Give me reason', 'never say never', 'unstoppable', 'Everything You Need', 'Believer'..."

Presenter Chen Nianzu listed more than twenty song titles in one breath.

He had intended to mention just a few signature songs but then realized there were too many of Link's hits.

More than ten songs from his first three albums had reached the number one position on the Hong Kong Island Pop Music Chart.

"There are also 'Girls Like You', 'Here With You', 'sugar', and so on; there are just too many, all songs by Link.

In addition to that, Link is also a Hollywood movie star, having starred in 'Fighter', 'The Expendables', 'Scandal Plan', and the recently very popular 'Midnight in Paris'.

Also, the Hollywood blockbuster 'Captain America', now in its promotional period with a production cost of 140 million US dollars produced by Marvel Studios and Paramount Pictures, stars none other than Mr. Link Baker as Captain America..."

"Is Link that fierce? Being a world champion boxer, a top singer, and a movie star, doesn't he get tired with all these side hustles?"

In a luxury apartment in Causeway Bay, actor Chen Xiaochun lay on the couch watching the live broadcast on TV, with a toothpick in his mouth and endlessly rubbing his feet, basking in the perfect sunlight outside the window.

"Hmph! Do you think everyone is as lazy as you?"

His wife, Ying Cai'er, glanced back at him,

"It was mentioned in the news that after becoming the World Champion boxer, a top singer, and a billionaire, Link still insists on training for at least four hours a day. In his spare time, he shoots films, writes music, records albums, and manages several companies each worth hundreds of millions of US dollars.

He's so hardworking that the media in the United States call him a role model. You're both men, why don't you learn from him a bit? Every day, when you have nothing to do, you just sprawl on the couch rubbing your feet.

Ugh, put your stinky feet down; it's disgusting."

Seeing Ying Cai'er raise her hand, Chen Xiaochun hurriedly put his feet down and changed his posture, saying nonchalantly, "Yeah, I'll learn from him and become a playboy, maybe?"

"You dare! When I tell you to learn from Link, it's to pick up his good traits, not to be a flirt like him. If you dare to mess around with young girls on set, be careful, I'll beat you up. I've learned boxing from Link too."

Ying Cai'er clenched her fist and said.

"You learned boxing from Link? When and where?"

Chen Xiaochun blinked his small eyes nervously and asked.

"Of course online, what on earth are you always thinking about?"

Ying Cai'er threw an orange at him.
