Cultivating through increasing my stats in America Chapter 163 - 143: Undefeated into the Finals2
Being able to communicate with him is naturally a good thing, but Li Ang knew that this eting must be related to his current performance.
If it were just based on the relationship Dwayne Johnson initially introduced, he wouldn’t have co to find him at this ti, not to ntion, Li Ang didn’t believe Dwayne Johnson’s influence was that great.
As he entered White Danna’s office, this legendary figure actually appeared quite unassuming.
When White Danna saw Li Ang co in, he imdiately stood up, greeted him, and gave him a hug.
"Honestly, your performance has been incredibly surprising, ever since Johnson recomnded you to , I’ve been keeping an eye on you.
I wanted to talk to you right after you won the middleweight division championship, but I’ve been really busy lately and it got a little delayed, fortunately, it’s not too late now."
Li Ang nodded his thanks, but internally he wasn’t fully convinced by what White Danna was saying.
The reason he hadn’t been approached before was just that his comrcial value wasn’t high enough to warrant a personal eting.
But that was normal, after all, the man was a billionaire, how could he have so much spare ti to focus on him.
"May I know what you’d like to see about today?"
Li Ang asked.
White Danna smiled, gestured for Li Ang to sit, and started talking leisurely.
Only after an assistant served him a cup of coffee did he finally steer the conversation to the main topic.
"Actually, my idea is quite simple, I’d like to ask if you’re interested in becoming an endorsed athlete for Slap Power."
From just that statent, Li Ang instantly analyzed part of the developnt trajectory of the situation in his mind.
The most popular player in the slap fighting competition was, without say, "Dumpling" Vasily, whose popularity ca from starting early and maintaining an undefeated record.
However, for capital investors, there’s a clear understanding that one shouldn’t put all eggs in one basket.
If they only depend on one star athlete for support, any change in his situation, like losing a match or having so negative news, could affect the competition’s popularity or even cause a significant impact.
So now, their strategy might be to cultivate more star athletes, ideally bringing new faces to light periodically.
Continually injecting new blood is a better, healthier trend for developnt.
Li Ang’s displayed strength was definitely up to par, not only winning the championship in his weight class but also defeating so many fighters above his weight, and even if he didn’t win the championship in the end, his skill within this weight range was unquestionably top-notch.
Next, Li Ang’s good looks and impressive physique ant he would be an excellent image spokesperson, surely capable of attracting a significant fanbase.
Given that the competition had just started and was mainly watched by males, Li Ang’s participation might attract many female viewers.
Also, his Asian ethnicity was another point that could be leveraged.
In a field mostly dominated by Caucasian and African Arican competitors, the ergence of a young Asian contestant had its own unique, irreplaceable trait.
Lastly, there was his age, he was not yet eighteen, his career had just begun, and he had the potential to be active in the ring significantly longer than any other current competitor.
However, faced with this seemingly heaven-sent opportunity, Li Ang didn’t imdiately accept on the spot.
"I really appreciate you offering this opportunity, could I take tonight to think it over? I should be able to give you an answer within a couple of days."
White Danna wasn’t surprised and spread his hands,
"Of course, such a major decision deserves so thought. Here is a draft contract for you to look over, take it ho and get a feel for it, I’m looking forward to you joining us."
The assistant promptly handed a contract to Li Ang.
Upon receiving the contract, Li Ang skimd it on his way back; the terms spelled out were already very generous, at least for the current Li Ang, it was indeed a significant source of inco.
But Li Ang understood another principle, he was now akin to a blue-chip stock in the stock market.
Others couldn’t foresee the future trend, but he was clear about his value not yet peaking.
He believed that after tomorrow’s competition, the contract they could negotiate would be different from today’s.
When Li Ang returned to the hotel and entered the door, Catina gave him a big hug.
After a day of contact with muscular giants and slaps, suddenly being hugged by Catina, Li Ang felt an overall sense of healing.
Not bad, he thought, his sexual orientation hadn’t been swayed by them.
"What’s up? Sothing happened? You seem very happy?"
"Gosh, you just can’t imagine how much we made today."
Catina said, bouncing around, she ran to the table, grabbed her laptop, and showed Li Ang the inco figures.
