Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion Chapter 799 - 578: Post-Competition Appointment

After the match, Link hosted a celebration party at the MGM hotel, inviting nurous peers, dia reporters, socialites, and so hardcore boxing fans to attend.

At the party, everyone talked about the match, and no one was not impressed by Link's tactics and strength, calling this match a high-caliber, classic battle, and the best of the year.

O'Neal even expressed his admiration to him face-to-face, claiming to be his most hardcore fan, and to celebrate his victory, O'Neal danced with a twist, amusing all the guests present.

"Link, I have a question."

Hoyle, holding a champagne glass, stood on the sidelines and asked while watching O'Neal dancing wildly, "Did you hold back your strength in the first three rounds?"

"No!"

Link said calmly.

"Don't hide it, I just watched your match video again. In the first three rounds, you hit Big Klitschko's chin several tis, only causing slight injury, but in the fourth round, you knocked down Big Klitschko with one punch. That must be your tactic; you were setting a trap, all to prepare for that final punch, right?

But I'm a little curious, if you can knock down Big Klitschko with one punch in the fourth round, why not attack with all your force earlier and try to KO Big Klitschko in the first round?"

Hoyle asked.

"Was the match good to watch?"

"Not bad, high level."

Hoyle said objectively.

"As long as it was good to watch, why ask so many questions?"

Link smiled, holding his wine glass as he went over to Simon, asking him to visit Big Klitschko in the hospital the next day, hoping the latter wasn't too seriously injured.

After the victory party, Link returned to his hotel room to rest, took a shower, called Ivanka to chat about the match, talking about the next day's schedule - finishing the post-fight promotion, he would probably return to Los Angeles in the afternoon.

After hanging up the phone, he found a missed call on his mobile phone and a ssage from Christine Stewart, saying she was in Las Vegas for fun and wanted to have a drink with him, asking if he was available now.

Link raised his eyebrows and sent her his room number.

A mont later, his bodyguard Bob reported that Christine had arrived. Christine Stewart, wearing a duckbill cap and a long dress, stood in the hallway of the presidential suite, holding a bag.

Link opened the door, inviting her in.

"Are you alone?"

Christine took off her hat, looking around the room as she entered.

"Shouldn't I be alone?"

"I saw in the news that after boxers finish their matches, they often invite a bunch of won to the hotel for a party. You've had a great win today, becoming the Boxing King everyone admires. And you're alone in your room tonight?"

Christine said.

"Now that you're here, it becos two people."

"Don't misunderstand, I'm just here to celebrate your win with a drink, I have no other thoughts."

Christine held two cans of beer, handing him one.

Link gave a slight smile, took the beer but didn't open it. He put his hand around her slender waist, pressing her against the wall, looking down at her fair and delicate face and her eyes full of surprise, "Let's skip the drinks, I only want to ML now, and I hope your thoughts align with mine."

Christine looked into his deep eyes, her pink earlobes gradually reddening, "Aren't you not interested in ? The few tis I lay on the sofa asking you to help apply dicine, you didn't touch . Why do you want to ML with now?"

"What do you think?"

Link touched her earlobes, seeing her body trembling slightly under her dress, her eyes slowly closing and breath becoming rapid, even the curve of her chest becoming more pronounced.

"Open your eyes and look at ."

Link's fingers rested under her chin.

Christine opened her moist eyes, her gaze growing hazy.

Link kissed the girl's eyes.

Unable to help herself, Christine wrapped her arms around his neck, tilting her red lips up toward him.

Link leaned down to kiss her, lifting her body with one hand, pressing her firmly against the wall.

Unleashing the pent-up frustration and desire on the boxing ring that had not been vented.

No rcy whatsoever.

——

After the boxing match, Link finished his promotional work in Las Vegas and returned to Los Angeles to rest.

His various sources of inco from the match were also gradually credited to his account.

First was the US Dollar 100 million appearance fee.

In the PPV (Pay-Per-View) revenue share, the match sold a total of 4.52 million copies in North Arica, with a total inco of US Dollar 339 million, from which he and Dynasty Promotion jointly received a share of US Dollar 101 million.

The live streaming revenue share was about US Dollar 35 million.

Box office revenue share was US Dollar 12 million.

The share from advertising sponsorships and other aspects was about US Dollar 25 million.

Finally, after deducting the share of the promotion company, his total inco from the match reached US Dollar 245 million.

Setting a new record for individual inco from a single boxing match.

His opponent, Big Klitschko, earned US Dollar 25 million, which was also the highest inco of his career.

Additionally, Link's tactics in defeating Big Klitschko in this match, which won cleanly, provoked a lot of post-match discussions.

Many colleagues analyzed his tactics on their shows. So called him cunning, others called him smart, but no matter the comntary, it did not prevent him from becoming the most eye-catching heavyweight boxer.

However, when Link saw these praises, he didn't get too carried away; compared to Big Klitschko, Small Klitschko was clearly more difficult to deal with.

First of all, Small Klitschko, at 38 years old this year, is younger and more vigorous than Big Klitschko.

Moreover, after Big Klitschko's defeat, he would discuss his strategies and train with simulation alongside Small Klitschko.

Small Klitschko would be more thoroughly prepared.

Next ti, it would be even more difficult to defeat him with tactics.

After finishing this match, Link's work for the year was essentially complete, and he spent the remaining ti at ho with Ivanka and the kids, while also paying attention to the box office performance of Lionsgate Films' recent movies.

"Birdman" had been released for over a month, with a current North Arican box office of US Dollar 43.24 million, and an overseas box office cumulative to US Dollar 64.03 million.

The current total box office is US Dollar 107 million.

"The Hunger Gas: Mockingjay Part 1" had been out for four weeks, with a cumulative North Arican box office of US Dollar 362 million, and overseas box office US Dollar 544 million, bringing the total box office just over US Dollar 900 million.

The box office growth of these two movies also smoothly pushed Lionsgate Films' annual total box office past US Dollar 1.8 billion, currently sitting at US Dollar 1.84 billion.

In mid-December, Lionsgate Films' 18th, and last movie of the year, "Arican Hustle," was released.

Directed by David O. Russell, "Arican Hustle" features a cast including Christian Bale, Bradley Cooper, Amy Adams, Jennifer Lawrence, and Robert De Niro.

Link made a cao in the film as the model mayor of Atlantic City in New Jersey.

The movie tells the story of a group of con artists who collaborate to swindle officials but, upon finding out that the officials are good people, they use their cons to help the officials raise funds to build the city, and the con artists retire successfully.

The film was originally scheduled for release last year but was postponed to the end of this year due to a packed schedule, and it is one of Lionsgate's major projects in contention for the Oscars.

The film premiered in six theaters in Los Angeles and New York with a first-week box office of US Dollar 1.13 million, and an impressive average daily box office of US Dollar 26,900 per theater. Although it was slightly lower than "The Grand Budapest Hotel" and "Birdman" in terms of per-theater revenue, the figure is very impressive for an arthouse film.

"Arican Hustle" also received positive reviews, with a dia composite score of 82, 22 dia outlets rating it above 85, a Rotten Tomatoes freshness rating of 87%, and an audience score of A on Yahoo.

The New York Post comnted that it is a typical David O. Russell film—smart, attractive, exaggerated, vibrant, full of character, with a fan base that will not be disappointed... The performances of the actors were showcased excellently in this film. The performances by Amy Adams and Jennifer Lawrence were impeccable, Christian Bale's bald cap was very striking, and even Link's portrayal of the mayor of Atlantic City carried a hint of dark humor and is highly recomndable.

The Los Angeles Tis comnted that in the film, the actors, driven by life, love, dignity, truth, or survival, deceive in a compelling manner, inducing a knowing smile from the audience.

Thanks to the good reception and dia hype, in the second week the number of cinemas showing the film expanded to 2,057, pulling in a North Arican weekly box office of US Dollar 46.83 million, with a cumulative box office of US Dollar 47.96 million.

On the 24th day of release, "Arican Hustle" broke the US Dollar 100 million mark in North Arican box office, becoming Lionsgate Films' eighth movie this year to achieve this feat.

The film also perford well overseas, securing US Dollar 82.27 million within three weeks across 47 countries and regions.

With "Arican Hustle" breaking the US Dollar 100 million mark in North Arica, Lionsgate Films' annual total box office reached US Dollar 1.95 billion, just "A Step Away" from the US Dollar 2 billion milestone.
