Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion Chapter 454 - 377: End and Beginning2

Link sought out Jun Ji-hyun to discuss a collaboration, preparing to work with her.

In the end, he invested three million US Dollars, secured 49% of the shares of the new talent agency, as well as Jun Ji-hyun's performance agency contract in the United States, making Jun Ji-hyun a foreign artist under the Palm Bay Agency.

Jun Ji-hyun's talent agency was then nad 'J&Baker Entertainnt', 'J' being Jun Ji-hyun's surna Jun, and 'Baker' being Link's surna.

Because of this na, the South Korean dia generally believed that Jun Ji-hyun had beco his actual girlfriend, with "Asia Daily" claiming that Playboy had knelt before the skirt of the barbarous girlfriend.

However, that wasn't the case; Jun Ji-hyun was a rather independent woman, and at this stage, the closest physical contact they had was holding hands.

After the world tour's stop in South Korea had ended, he flew to Japan to continue his concerts.

Due to the economic downturn in recent years in Japan, rigid social stratification, and the tight control of all profitable industries by the six major financial groups, it was even more difficult for foreigners to make big money there than in the United States.

With no good investnt opportunities, he focused solely on his concerts after arriving in Japan.

Whenever he found the ti, he would go to the Baker villa in Tokyo's Minato District to chat, take walks, and ML with Nozomi Sasaki-chan.

This villa was a top-notch luxury house he had purchased for eight million US Dollars, not far from Tokyo Bay, Roppongi, Tokyo Tower, and the US Embassy, in one of Japan's most famous wealthy areas, where the residents were either rich or noble, and the security was top-notch.

It was by virtue of his international celebrity status that Link was able to acquire this property.

After moving in together, Mr. Tahara Anzai obtained Nozomi Sasaki's managing contract through connections and returned it, along with 500,000 US Dollars in compensation.

After discussion, Link and Nozomi Sasaki jointly invested 1.2 million US Dollars to acquire a boutique lingerie company, founding the Nozomi Sasaki high-end lingerie brand, and even sent her father to Brazil to grow cacao.

Occasionally Jun Ji-hyun would also co over to talk about music and make Japanese cuisine.

Despite keeping a low profile, Japanese dia never stopped the rumors about him, first reporting on his romance with Japan's new national goddess, Nozomi Sasaki-chan, claiming that the two had moved in together, a claim to which neither party clarified.

After the news broke, Japanese netizens were very angry; so went to Tokyo subway stations with protest signs, calling for a boycott of Link's concerts, and so made Molotov cocktails, attempting to destroy the business vehicle he was using during his performance.

But then the Japanese dia reported that 'national daughter-in-law' Jun Ji-hyun was also very close with Link, which was confird by Jun Ji-hyun's ex-boyfriend Ryo Nishikido.

Ryo Nishikido claid that in August, Jun Ji-hyun had been sent to Huaxia by her company to teach Link Japanese, and love grew over ti; shortly after her return, she broke up with him, stating that they were living together.

Upon hearing this, Japanese netizens beca even more angry: first the national goddess and then the national daughter-in-law had been 'slept with', it was outrageous for Link Baker.

Outraged male netizens ford a website, vehently demanding the authorities cancel all of Link's concert dates in Japan.

However, Johnny & Associates, Yui's talent agency, denied this.

First, Ryo Nishikido and Jun Ji-hyun were just work colleagues, there was no romantic relationship nor was there a breakup.

Second, Jun Ji-hyun and Link shared a professional relationship and she was a special guest perforr at Link's Tokyo concert.

Because of their work, they had so interactions, but it was only on a professional level, and Johnny & Associates stated that the two had collaborated on a new song "Good Ti" and recently another titled "Listen", which would be perford live at Link's concert in the Tokyo Do.

Third, Jun Ji-hyun and Nozomi Sasaki were close friends, and Yui's visit to Nozomi Sasaki's villa was at her invitation, not a date with Link.

As for Johnny & Associates' statents, Japanese fans were skeptical.

Latter, Yui herself ca forward to explain that she was just a good friend of Link's, a fan of his, who enjoyed his music. She went to see Link mainly to help him grasp Japanese and also to collaborate on new songs, without any other kind of relationship.

Seeing that Yui still appeared so pure and sweet, people believed her words.

However, fans were still uneasy and left ssages on her Twitter, hoping she would stay away from Link after the concert, calling him a playboy.

But Yui replied below, saying that Link was a person of good character, not a playboy, and she praised Link for being talented, humorous, and a top-notch good man.

Fans saw her naivety and were worried; in the comnts, they inford her that Link had more than ten girlfriends around the world, being called Hollywood's #1 scumbag by magazines like "Celebrity Scene", and was definitely not any kind of good man.

Yui initially wanted to defend Link further, but her manager stopped her, advising her not to argue with fans.

This defense thus ended unresolved.

Link had 16 shows in Japan, held in cities like Tokyo, Yokohama, Osaka, Nagoya, Kobe, with each audience exceeding 30,000 people; at the Tokyo Do concert, there were 65,000 spectators.

The total of sixteen concerts sold over 800,000 tickets, and this inco alone exceeded forty million US Dollars.

During the concert series, "Good Ti" and "Listen", the songs Link perford together with Yui, were released and topped the Japanese Oricon charts at number 1, with first-week sales of 450,000 and 620,000 copies respectively.

Additionally, during the Japan tour, his three albums sold a total of 1.32 million copies, with the third album rising to the top of the Oricon chart's weekly sales champion position, more than three months later.
