Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion-Chapter 862 - 618 Street-side Singing_2
"Wow!"
Zhang Zilin held her face, excitedly watching him, originally thinking he was just going to sing like karaoke, but once he started, she realized his singing was as good as the original, and he had the aura of a superstar, dizzying to look at.
"...."
Zhao Lei was also looking at Link with a full face of surprise.
Initially thinking Link was clueless, asking for a guitar just to show off, but after hearing him sing, he found that his singing skills were no less than those veterans in the music scene, and his guitar-playing technique was even better than all the guitar masters he knew.
Zhao Lei was a bit shocked and felt hit; his dream was to become a rock singer, so even before graduating from high school, he often sang in the streets and underpasses to practice.
He thought persistence would surely make him succeed.
But he didn't expect to meet someone today who performed as well as those veterans in the circle.
And this person looked only a little older than him.
If such talent in singing could be found just like that, how many people in Huaxia are like him?
Thinking this kind of talent has no fame in the music world, could he really make it by continuing?
Zhao Lei, sitting on the curb clutching his knees, messed his hair and suddenly heard a bang from the front; lifting his head, he found that unexpectedly, twenty or thirty people had gathered, and some were tossing coins into the guitar case.
Seeing this, Zhao Lei felt even more devastated; he had sung in the spot for over two hours that afternoon, earning not a dime, while the handsome guy who borrowed the guitar hadn't even finished one song and already had more than ten dollars in his guitar case.
This is the difference.
"Only the remnants of today, embracing Glorious Years, holding on to freedom amidst the storm...."
As Link sang, more and more onlookers gathered outside, from one Zhang Zilin to forty or fifty people; many passersby, hearing his excellent singing, stopped to watch.
"Eh~ This guy sings really well. Xun sister, want to listen?"
On a street corner, Gao Yuanyuan and Zhou Xun, who came for a stroll, stopped and looked towards Link in the center, their eyes lighting up.
Unlike the strangely dressed singer in leather pants and yellow hair across the street, Link had neat short hair, wore a loose but stylish shirt, casual long pants which, paired with his lean and straight figure, barely exposed muscle outlines, made him look outstanding.
And his looks, with sharp brows, starry eyes, a high nose bridge, and well-defined features, along with the gentle, mature and steady aura exuding from him, made Zhou Xun's heart race.
She's not some teenage girl who cannot move when seeing a handsome guy; she's been through enough in the entertainment industry for over a decade, seeing all kinds of handsome men; masculine, refined, gentle, elegant... but it was her first time seeing a man of Link's type.
He wasn't just handsome and stately, there was an indescribable charisma about him, very charming, like a strong cocktail.
She hadn't even started drinking, but merely looking at him gave her an intoxicating feeling.
"Xun sister, he's pretty handsome, and sings well too, why would he be busking on the streets?"
Gao Yuanyuan said softly.
Zhou Xun felt that someone like Link should be standing on a stage, becoming a dazzling superstar, not a wandering singer.
"Eh, this guy looks like Link, yes, it's this guy, I've seen his photo."
The actor Xia Yu said.
"Link?"
Zhou Xun, Gao Yuanyuan, and Xia Yu's girlfriend Yuan Quan turned back and looked at him.
"The boxing champion Link, you guys don't know, last week at the World Boxing Championships, he represented our Huaxia Team and won a gold medal, Huaxia's first boxing gold medal; last weekend, CCTV5 even broadcast that match, this guy is incredible, he beat down the previous world champion in the final like hitting a sandbag, knocked his opponent down in just one round, that match was too thrilling."
Xia Yu said excitedly.
"So he's a boxer."
"Not just a boxer, let me tell you, this guy is also the leading person in our National Track and Field Team's shot put event, last July at the World University Games, he threw 19.81 meters, winning another gold for the National Team, even breaking the national record in shot put, so awesome."
Xia Yu continued praising Link.
"Champion in both boxing and shot put, indeed very impressive."
Zhou Xun looked at Link and blinked.
"What's more amazing is, guess how old he is this year?"
Before anyone could speak, Xia Yu grinned and said, "18 years old! Damn awesome, an 18-year-old world champion, in two fields, and so handsome, sings so well, this guy would be irresistible to girls if he wanted to flirt."
"Don't talk nonsense, participating in sports competitions to win isn't for flirting."
His girlfriend Yuan Quan said.
Zhou Xun and Gao Yuanyuan quietly watched Link.
In the center, Link finished a song, asked a tall girl in front if she wanted to hear more music.
The tall girl blushed, glanced around, shook her head saying no, and reached out to pull him away.
As Link was about to take off the guitar, Zhao Lei, sitting on the curb, raised his hand and said to Link, "Buddy, I admit you can sing, but you just claimed you can sing in English, French, Japanese, Korean — are you bluffing? Sing a foreign song and I'll believe you."
Link smiled lightly, nodded to Zhang Zilin, and said into the mic, "Here's a classic American folksong '500 miles' for everyone."
