Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion-Chapter 946 - 662 Miami Beach
Link transferred the money to Beethoven Investment Company's account and then, through Hong Kong Island Golden Shell Asset Management Company, continued to purchase a large amount of promising stocks, including Alibaba, Google, Amazon, Tesla, and others.
Currently, Hong Kong Island Golden Shell Asset Management Company holds 4.92% Tencent shares, 1.32% Google shares, 1.12% Amazon shares, 15% Tesla shares, 28% JD.com shares, 15% Facebook shares, and 0.21% Alibaba shares.
Because Link had a high income last year, at the beginning of 2008, the "Forbes" Huaxia Rich List was released, ranking him 121st with a fortune of 2.85 billion US Dollars, making him the youngest billionaire on the list.
After becoming a super-billionaire, Link's influence both domestically and internationally soared, his various companies performed better, and even his albums sold hundreds of thousands more copies.
However, Link wasn't too concerned about these matters. Since participating in a boxing match at the end of 2007, he had spent most of his time training at the national team base, preparing for the Olympics.
Due to his excellent performance in track and field events, the national team hoped he could participate in more events, including shot put, javelin, 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m, 1500m, 3000m steeplechase, 5000m, and 10,000m races.
Link agreed to all of this, focusing entirely on his training, shutting out the world outside the training room.
But one day in May, after training, he suddenly realized it was May 14.
The disaster he had once worried about hadn't occurred. He didn't know the reason but felt relieved.
In mid-May, he flew to the United States to participate in a Super Middleweight four-major organization Boxing King challenge match. His opponent for this match was his long-time rival, Chad Dawson, the WBA Super Middleweight North American champion, who had an undefeated record of 27 wins at the time.
Link had fought him once in Tokyo in 2010, defeating him in the second round.
This time, he knocked down his opponent three times consecutively in the second round. After the third knockdown, the opponent failed to get up within 10 seconds, and Link won the match smoothly.
After the match, Link didn't return to his home country immediately. Instead, he flew to Miami Beach for vacation and purchased a small diving equipment shop in central Miami Beach, hiring a chubby man named James as a shop assistant. freēnovelkiss.com
Every day, he would sunbathe on the beach, go scuba diving, or play the guitar at the public pier.
On May 24, the day he remembered meeting Taylor, Link woke up early, jogged 15 kilometers along the coastal road, had breakfast at a nearby Mexican restaurant, and returned to the shop when the sun reached the beach.
"Good morning, boss!"
In front of Baker's dive shop, the chubby James, wearing a green helmet and riding a scooter, greeted Link at the shop entrance.
"Good morning, James!"
Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Link looked at James and said, "I'm heading to train in a while. If a tall girl with golden blonde hair comes by the shop for diving, call me."
"Boss, do you have a photo?"
James scratched his head and asked.
Link took out his phone, pulled up a picture of Taylor, and showed it to James.
James nodded, indicating he remembered.
After finishing the newspaper, Link went to the gym next door to train. To ensure he wouldn't miss a call, he kept his phone nearby during the workout.
But even after training from 9 a.m. until a little after 2 p.m., he hadn't received any call from James.
Losing patience, he ended his training early and rode back to the dive shop.
James told him that none of the customers who came to rent diving equipment matched the girl in the photo.
Link felt somewhat disappointed. Still, he reasoned that since this world hadn't experienced any major disaster in May, it was likely a different world. Moreover, from the time he started corresponding with Taylor in 2005, he might have inadvertently disrupted her timeline.
It made sense that Taylor didn't show up for diving today.
Link told James to keep working. Holding a guitar, he sat on a beach chair at the door, looking out at the golden sand and cerulean sea while listening to the sound of the sea breeze rustling the palm leaves. Strumming, he began singing the old song "See You Again."
It's been a long day without you my friend
And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
We've come a long way from where we began
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
....
Inside Baker's dive shop, James shook his head lightly as he watched Link playing and singing at the entrance.
Ten days earlier, he'd been selling ice cream on the beach and occasionally acting as a guide for tourists when he bumped into Link. Link offered him a job at the dive shop, with a weekly salary of 1000 US Dollars.
Hearing such a high salary, he had accepted on the spot.
At the same time, he'd recognized this boss from Huaxia, none other than the world-famous athlete and Grand Slam champion Boxing King across the Middleweight and Super Middleweight divisions, as well as a current pop sensation—Link.
Magazines claimed his net worth to be 400 or 500 million US Dollars.
Although he'd recognized Link, he couldn't understand why a billionaire like him would be here, running a small dive shop on the beach.
When he'd asked Link, Link simply said he was looking for inspiration for a new song and fulfilling a personal wish.
James didn't get it but didn't ask further. He went about welcoming customers daily, keeping the shop well-run and orderly.
After a few days, James felt working here actually wasn't bad. However, considering Link was Huaxia-born and a major celebrity, he guessed this dive shop venture was probably just a fleeting fancy.
If Link lost interest and stopped running the shop, James feared he might lose his job.
These thoughts left James feeling both hopeful and uneasy.
Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again
When I see you again
When I see you again
Ding ding dong...
Link strummed his guitar a couple more times before stopping. Pressing his palm to the strings, he gazed out at the vast, undulating sea as white seagulls soared and danced.
"Boss, want some water?"
James asked eagerly, holding out a bottle of water.
"No, James. I'm planning to return to Huaxia. I'll leave the dive shop in your hands. I'll drop by occasionally when I have time. If you ever need funds, just call me."
Link rose, holding his guitar as he spoke.
"Boss, are you going back to Huaxia?"
James blinked his small eyes and asked.
"Yes. The Capital City Olympics are starting soon. I need to head back to train. If you're interested, you can come to Huaxia in August to watch the Olympics. I'll cover your travel costs."
Link said.
James nodded and smiled in gratitude.
"Excuse me, was that you playing the guitar earlier?"
As Link carried his guitar back inside, he suddenly heard someone greeting him—a woman's voice.
He turned around and saw a tall girl standing on the sun-drenched beach, wearing a light blue shirt tucked into a skirt. Her golden blonde hair draped over her shoulders, with a few strands fluttering in the breeze. She blinked her long eyelashes and smiled at him.
"Yes, that was me!"
Link replied with a slight smile.
