Conquer America, Start with a Boxing Champion

"Brother, you shouldn't quit the music industry. Your fifth album sold more than 10 million copies throughout the year, and your sixth album will definitely sell even more. You could have made history and become a music legend, but you were too lazy. No more, the legend is gone.”

In the audience, Selena blinked her big eyes and said.

"Wrong, I am a legend now. After all, besides me, who else can release five albums in four years, three platinums and two diamonds, with a total global sales of nearly 200 million. Even if MJ reaches this number, it will take two Ten years, isn’t this considered a legend?”

Link laughed.

"No, you could have been more legendary and become the first person in the history of modern pop music, but it's because you are too lazy that you are only half a legend."

Selena said, sniffing.

"Half is enough. Don't be too greedy."

Link said calmly.

Selena curled her lips and couldn't help but hit him with her fist. After the blow, she quickly leaned on Taylor next to her to seek shelter.

Link shook his head and continued to watch the performance on the stage.

On the stage, Katy Perry held a Japanese-style bamboo umbrella and wore a pink Japanese kimono to sing her latest single "Unconditionally". Katy Perry released her third studio album "Prism" in early October, with first-week sales of 28 Ten thousand copies, number one on the album chart.

After Katy Perry stepped down, Miley Cyrus took to the stage to perform. Miley is 21 years old. She has been transitioning to a sexy route since last year. Whenever she performs on stage, she wears very little, even less than the models in the Victoria's Secret show. She The performance on stage is also very exciting, with a lot of eye-catching moves.

Criticized by mainstream media.

However, with these hot performances, Miley Cyrus has also successfully transformed from a child star to a sexy female singer.

"Brother, the company is also considering letting me transform. What do you think of me learning from Miley?"

Selena leaned over and asked.

"Singers in the music industry pay attention to individuality. Miley imitated Lady Gaga's style, which attracted a lot of attention. If you try to imitate Miley again, it will appear that you have no personality and lack of selling points. In the end, Miley cannot surpass Lady Gaga. I can’t surpass Miley, do you think that’s okay?”

"It sounds bad, bro, do you have any good suggestions?"

Selena asked in a coquettish voice.

Link shook his head, "Lady Gaga, Adele, Taylor, Katy Perry, and Pink. The five of them have five styles. Miley can learn from Lady Gaga, but you can't learn from Adele. Taylor Similar to Katie’s style, Britney has also transformed from a pure and cute style, and is a successful template. You can consider learning from them.”

Selena nodded thoughtfully, "Brother, what kind of template are you? No one seems to be imitating you."

"I am a template that is extremely powerful and cannot be copied. Imitation of me will only lead to death."

Link said proudly.

Selena curled her lips and pulled Taylor to whisper.

After the performance on stage, various awards began to be awarded, starting with the Rookie of the Year Award, which was won by Charlie Puth.

He released a small test album in 2011 with average results. He settled down for more than a year and concentrated on further studies at Berklee College of Music. This year he released his first official album "Ego", which has good sales and reputation.

Counting Charlie Puth, Link Music's singers including Justin Bieber, Bruno Mars, and Ariana Grande have all won this award, which also shows that Link Music has successors.

Then the Artist of the Year was awarded, and the nominees for this award were Taylor, Rihanna, Justin Timberlake, Macklemore, and Ariana Grande.

The final winner was Taylor.

"Tyler, that's great!"

Selena shouted excitedly.

Taylor won this award for the third time. Now he has become very calm. He hugged Selena, went on stage to receive the award, and delivered a speech.

Although she is only 24 years old this year, younger than many singers present, she has encountered too many things in the past few years, and her temperament has also changed from an innocent girl to a cold and strong woman.

The winner of the single of the year award was "Cruise" by Florida Georgia Line Featuring Nelly.

Next, awards for various music genres were presented, and the award for Favorite Pop/Rock Male Singer was won by Justin Timberlake.

Selena Gomez won the award for Favorite Pop/Rock Female Vocalist.

"Brother, if you had not announced your withdrawal from the selection, these two awards would have been yours."

Selena muttered beside her.

Link clapped his hands, stopped and looked at her suspiciously, "Go and receive the award, what are you talking about?"

"Receive the award? What award?"

Selina blinked her eyes.

"Selena, congratulations, you won the award."

Taylor hugged Selena and smiled.

"ah??"

Selena looked around, everyone was applauding, and familiar people were congratulating her.

"Did I win a prize?"

Before Selena could react, she was pushed out of the audience by Taylor, walked to the podium with a dull face, and took the trophy from Bruno Mars.

Selena only woke up when she was holding the crystal trophy. Before she could open her mouth to say her acceptance speech, tears started to flow down her face, as if she had been wronged a lot.

"It's too exaggerated, and it's not an Oscar for Best Actress."

Link said, covering his forehead.

Taylor rolled her eyes at him and shouted that Selena was the best.

The audience applauded and cheered.

The little round face calmed down and choked up as she spoke her acceptance speech. At first, she thanked the American Music Awards, her fans, her colleagues in the company, and someone for helping her write songs.

Later, she said that she was under a lot of pressure. The main reason was that she had a super perverted and powerful brother. She had lived in his shadow since her debut. No matter how hard she tried, she was far inferior to him and was left far behind by him. Every time she attended an awards ceremony, her perverted brother would get a lot of trophies, but she didn't get any.

Hahaha!

There were bursts of laughter at the scene, and everyone looked at Link.

Selena sniffed and continued to say that she had never thought she could get this award, so she was very excited. She was very grateful to the American Music Awards and the fans for voting for her. She said that she would continue to work hard to surpass Link.

Papapapa!

When Selena gave her speech, the audience applauded and laughed. People around her teased Link and asked him how he felt now?

Link's face was dark and he said nothing.

After Selina finished her acceptance speech, she returned to the audience with the trophy in her hand, her round face full of happy smiles.

"Taylor, Link, look, I have this trophy too."

Selina smiled happily.

"Selina, you are great, but you have to be careful, your acceptance speech just now offended someone."

Taylor glanced at Link and smiled.

"Uh, brother, if I said I was too excited and accidentally said what was in my heart, ah, I said the wrong thing, will you forgive me?"

Selina smiled shyly.

Link raised his hand and pinched her thin ear, "What did you just say? You said I was a shadow? Are you sure what you are talking about? Since your debut, every album has a song written by me. You dare to say I am a shadow. Do you have a conscience?"

"Ah, I was wrong. I was just too excited and said the wrong thing by accident. I won't dare to do it again next time, I promise!"

Selena blinked her watery eyes and said pitifully.

Link didn't want to be photographed by the camera and be mistaken for bullying Selena. He let go of her hand and said, "I allow you to say your acceptance speech again."

"Okay!"

Selena's eyes turned, and she immediately offered a bunch of fresh flattery, saying that he was the sun, the morning star, the guiding light, the most important person in life, and that he was the coolest, most powerful and most talented person in the world. She praised him for hundreds of words in a row.

"Brother, is it okay?"

Selena asked sweetly.

"Before going to bed in the future, recite these words in your heart three times, and you won't say the wrong thing next time."

Link said expressionlessly.

"Three times a day? Kill me."

Selena's face fell and she leaned towards Taylor, "Link bullied me."

"Ignore him, he is a shadow, everyone's shadow, you shouldn't apologize to him."

Taylor hugged Selena and said.

"Yeah!"

Selena nodded her chin and rolled her eyes at Link. When Link looked over, she immediately smiled again, with a strong desire to survive.

The award ceremony on the stage continued. The most popular pop rock group and the most popular pop rock album were won by the One Direction band and the group's "Take Me Home".

This British pop band has five members. They debuted in 2010 by participating in the British talent show "The X Factor" and quickly became popular in the UK. At the closing ceremony of the London Olympics, they were invited to sing their masterpiece "What Makes You Beautiful" and signed a US agency contract with Link Music.

Last year, they released two consecutive albums with sales of more than 1 million copies in the United States, and became the most popular pop music group in the music scene today.

In the country music category, Taylor won the Most Popular Female Singer Award and the Most Popular Country Music Album Award.

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis won the Most Popular Rap Artist Award and the Most Popular Rap Album Award.

Justin Timberlake and Rihanna won the Most Popular R\u0026B Male Singer Award and the Most Popular Female Singer Award respectively.

Finally, Taylor also won the "Pop Benchmark Award".

Taylor also became the biggest winner of this year's American Music Awards with four trophies.

"Brother, Taylor has surpassed you in the number of American Music Awards. Those records you set in the past may also be broken by Taylor. Are you nervous?"

Selena asked.

"No, those records of mine were set before the age of 24. No one can break them. If you don't believe me, ask Taylor and see if she has the confidence?"

Link smiled.

Taylor wrinkled his nose, "How is the preparation for that instrumental music?"

"It's almost done. It will be on the shelves next month. It is guaranteed to be another champion single."

Link said confidently.

"You want to win the championship with instrumental music?"

Taylor looked at him with suspicion.

"Just be ready for a date."

Link smiled.

Taylor rolled his eyes at him and left the awards ceremony with Selena.

——

After the American Music Awards, Link returned to the training ground and continued to practice boxing to prepare for the heavyweight championship title challenge of the four major organizations next year.

By then, he will meet several real masters in the heavyweight field, including ‘Bronze Bomber’ Deontay Wilder, ‘Tiger’ Tony Thompson, ‘Cobra’ Kubrat Pulev, and British boxing champion Tyson Fury.

And WBA heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin, WBC world champion Vitali Klitschko, and WBO-IBF world champion Vladimir Klitschko.

These people are younger boxers than James Toney and Holyfield, and are also the backbone of the heavyweight field.

If Link wants to take four gold belts from them, he still needs to fight hard.
