Across America, Starting with the Boxing Champion Chapter 456

Chapter 456 The wind has turned again

"Very good! Just write it like this, continue to criticize Link, and try to guide public opinion in the direction of Link's bad character."

In the high-rise office of Building No. 222, little Kunas put down the phone, smiled slightly, picked up the newspaper and continued to read the report criticizing Link.

These reports also have credit for his and his companions' contributions. Although there are not many, they are all articles with the sharpest wording, pointing the sharpest spearhead at Link.

　　This time, Link must draw blood.

Little Kunas clasped his fingers on the table and thought for a while, then picked up the phone and called Ivaca's father, Mr. Thompson. The phone beeped several times and was picked up by Mr. Thompson's secretary, who then transferred it to Mr. Thompson. Mr. desk.

“Haha, Ryan, what's the matter?”

Mr. Thompson's high-pitched voice came over the phone, and he sounded like he was in a good mood.

“Uncle Tom, I haven't played golf with you for a long time. Please remember to call me when you play golf. I want to learn a few tricks from you.”

Little Kunas smiled softly.

"Haha, Ryan, you are good at this. You know how to take the initiative to learn golf. Unlike Link, who even asked him to come to New York to learn to play golf with me would not come. He always said he didn't have time, and he didn't know that he was a young man who was there all day long. What are you busy with?"

Mr. Thompson said with a dissatisfied voice.

Little Kunas smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Tom, have you read the news these days? The news said Link."

“Haha, yes, I read it. The Wall Street Journal said that Link is worth more than 3 billion U.S. dollars and there is still a lot of room for growth in the future.

The old guys at the club all say that he is very powerful. He is worth 3 billion US dollars at the age of 22. In ten years, it will probably rise to 10 billion or 30 billion. He can make more money than us old guys.

Haha, Ryan, you also read this news, what do you think of Link? "

Mr. Thompson asked happily.

Little Kunas' eyes twitched. This was not what he wanted to ask about, nor did he want to hear how good Old Tom Qualink was.

“Well, I saw it too, Link does have some luck in investing, Uncle Tom, that's what I'm talking about.”

"Luck? This is not just luck, Ryan, Link's assets include Lionsgate Pictures and Link Music. The total market value of these two companies has reached 1.4 billion US dollars, not to mention he also has shares in Dynasty Promotion Company. There is that one. Golden Shell Investment Management Company, yes, that is it. I heard that the market value is almost 2 billion.

He and Eva have been able to build two large companies with a market value of over 700 million from scratch in recent years. It does not just rely on luck, but more on ability and vision.

Ryan, you are also an outstanding young man. If you have time to talk more with Link and Eva, and work together to start a business, you may be able to create a few more large companies with a market value of hundreds of millions in the future. Old Kunas knows, I'm afraid I'll laugh too. "

Mr. Thompson laughed.

Little Kunas covered his forehead, bit his back teeth and said, "Uncle Tom, what I'm talking about is the news that the media criticized Link for taking advantage of his wealth and power to prepare to steal the child from Taylor. You think Link is like this?" Is it done?"

"It's good. Link is worth more than 3 billion, and his children are fine with him. Those words in the media are all nonsense. We know what's going on, so we can just watch the fun. Haha, Ryan, I'll do it. I made a call and we'll talk next time.”

Click, Mr. Thompson hung up the phone.

Shet!

Little Kunas dropped the phone angrily.

He didn't expect Old Tom to be so unruly. Just because Link was worth over three billion, he didn't even care if he did something like that. It was so irritating.

Little Kunas took a few deep breaths, picked up the phone and called Ivaca's office. He heard from the informant that Ivaca had been working at Link Music Company for the past two days.

The phone was picked up by Ivaca's assistant. Little Kunas reported his name and said that he had important work with Ivaca.

The assistant said that the chairman is very busy now and will be free later, so he made an appointment for him one hour later.

Little Kunas waited in the office for an hour and a half before he heard Ivacana's charming and solemn voice on the phone again.

“Ryan, what's the matter? I have one minute to listen to you.”

Ivaca speaks quickly, with a crisp voice and no sloppiness.

"Eva, do you know the news that Link and Taylor have two illegitimate children? He is also planning to take back the custody rights of the children. If he really succeeds, you will become the stepmother of those children. Do you want to return the child? Did you have two children when you were not married to him? "

Little Kunas knew what Ivaca was doing. One minute she said was really only one minute, so when he spoke, he had to speed up his speech and finish it in one breath, so as not to miss the chance.

“What does this matter have to do with you?”

Ivaca asked in a calm voice, without the slightest emotion, not even a hint of anger or dissatisfaction.

"Eva, we are friends, and I care about you very much. Link is a playboy. There are not only many lovers out there, but also countless illegitimate children. People like him are not worthy of you. You deserve a better one." man."

“For example?”

“For example??”

Little Kunas suppressed his blush and racked his brains for a few seconds, but he couldn't think of any suitable candidate. He wanted to say it himself, but he couldn't open his mouth.

"My Link is the best man in the world. I love him, and I will try to love his illegitimate children, and even accept his lovers outside. Ryan, please don't call me for this kind of thing in the future." ”

Click! The phone was hung up and the time showed exactly one minute.

Little Kunas listened to the beeping response from the phone, his expression became twisted and ferocious with anger.

He didn't expect that Evaca would be like this now. Not only did he not blame Link for having an illegitimate child outside, but he was even able to accept that **** raising a lover outside. This was too much of a double standard.

And when Iwaka said "my Link", the doting, admiration, pride, attachment, sweetness, and silent tenderness revealed in her tone were gentler than the softest water in the world.

If this tenderness is for himself, he will feel so happy that his bones will melt at the sound.

No.

Evaka said 'my Link'.

“Damn it Link, this should be mine, mine!”

Little Kunas angrily pushed down the piles of notebooks, telephones, folders, and newspapers on the table, leaving a pile of debris on the floor.

After venting his anger, Kunas pulled his tie, took a few deep breaths, and gradually calmed down. He picked up the phone and called his assistant, asking them to continue contacting the media.

This time he not only scolded Link, but also scolded Ivaca. She said that she went for Link's three billion. If Link was a pauper, she would never like Link. She is a materialistic, snobbish, superficial and bad woman.

Little Kunas cursed into the phone.

“Boss, the direction of public opinion has changed.”

Suddenly the assistant reminded.

“The wind has turned? How? Which direction has it turned? Do you think this is sailing? The wind turns at will.”

Little Kunas shouted angrily.

"Boss, the wind has really turned. You can open the Yahoo website and take a look. Many of the news on it have been removed and replaced with news that is beneficial to Link."

The assistant said.

Little Kunas frowned, picked up the almost smashed laptop on the ground, connected it to the Internet cable and looked at it.

When I opened the Yahoo website, the first thing I saw was a bold headline, 'Link defeated Phelps and won four gold medals in the championship', followed by a flashing tag of 'hot'.

Clicking on the news, it was a press release from an Associated Press reporter from China.

The 14th World Swimming Championships were held from July 16 to 31, 2011 in Dahai City, China.

Link, Phelps, Ryan Lochte and other swimming stars represented the United States team in various swimming events in this championship.

In the final events yesterday and today, Link defeated Brazilian star Siello, French star Bernal, South Korean star Park Huantae and others in the 50/100/200 freestyle events, winning gold medals in three events.

At the same time, in the 4x100 freestyle relay event, he cooperated with Phelps and other teammates to win another gold medal.

In the first three days of this World Swimming Championships, Link won four gold medals, set three world records, and entered the semi-finals and finals in six events.

The Associated Press predicts that Link is expected to win more than seven gold medals at this world championship and set more than five world records.

He will also become a seed player on the U.S. swimming team and be the first to qualify for the swimming event in next year's London Olympics.

“Farke!”

Little Kunas couldn't help but curse when he saw the news. If it weren't for this news, he would have forgotten about the World Swimming Championships and that Link was still an official member of the national swimming team.

He closed the AP news page and continued browsing other news sections on the Yahoo website.

I found that there were many news columns criticizing Link in the morning, but now half of them were replaced by reports about Link winning four gold medals at the World Championships.

Discuss how good Link is in swimming, why he is so good, what is the connection between boxing and swimming, and there are also video links to many competitions, which are very popular.

He looked at social and news platforms such as Google, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and others, and found that the hot searches had also changed.

The news that Link defeated Phelps and other famous players in the championship and led the medal list at the top of the list. At a rocket speed, it quickly surpassed several news articles criticizing him and Taylor for stealing their children and became the top trending list.

These online media are changing faces faster than flipping through a book.

“Why is this happening?”

“It's just four World Championship gold medals, not the Olympics. Why is it so popular?”

Little Kunas was stunned for a while, then called his assistant and asked them to investigate the cause of the change in wind direction.

Even if the news that Link won four gold medals at the World Championships was sensational, it couldn't change the trend in half a day.

He doesn't have that much influence. Link Music must be spending a lot of money on public relations, deliberately exaggerating the news, and trying to reverse Link's reputation before the release of his new album.

It would be best to find evidence to see how much money Link has spent on music. It would also be good if Link can spend more money.

But the assistant told him that he had just communicated with the media, and it was the "Captain America" side that made the effort.

Captain America is a film produced and distributed by Paramount Pictures.

Paramount's parent company is Viacom Media Group, which is also the parent company behind MTV. Its boss, Redstone, is very influential in the entertainment and media industries.

The assistant also said that News Corporation's media outlets are also focusing on reporting this news.

There are also some media companies owned by Hearst Newspaper Group.

With the joint action of three large media groups, online and TV news media were the first to make adjustments.

This has also caused a strange phenomenon: while American newspapers and magazines are still discussing the legal and moral issues of Link and Taylor's fight for children, the online and TV media have switched to news about Link winning the gold medal at the World Championships.

This situation also shows that print media has a serious lag in reporting news.

Other media saw the change in the trend and followed suit by adjusting the focus of their reports to attract audiences and sell news products first.

If this situation continues, it can be expected that starting from tomorrow, most media will abandon Link's old news and replace it with Link's latest news.

Some media may choose to do both, reporting two pieces of news at the same time, praising Link and criticizing Link at the same time.

This would also make Link himself more controversial.

And this kind of half good and half bad public opinion is not a bad thing for a public figure, but will make his influence further.

“Boss, do we still need to pay someone to write a draft criticizing Link?”

The assistant asked.

Little Kunas' lips trembled, but no sound came out.

Hiring well-known commentators to write press releases and continue to scold Link is his strategy. When the mainstream media were scolding Link a few days ago, this attack method was very effective and could cause huge public pressure on Link.

But now the direction of the wind has changed and the situation is over. There is no point in continuing to criticize him.

“Wait a moment, maybe there is still a chance.”

Little Kunas put down the phone reluctantly.
