Across America, Starting with the Boxing Champion Chapter 604

Chapter 604 The Most Gorgeous American Dream

Link is a global superstar, a world-class rich man, and has great influence all over the world.

He can speak Chinese, Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, French, etc., has attended the Spring Festival Gala, held concerts in many countries, and held boxing matches.

When helping your father-in-law stand up, you can take advantage of language convenience and proactively contact immigrant groups or descendants of immigrants from several language families to canvass votes for your father-in-law.

In fact, before my father-in-law became a candidate of the Elephant Party, acquaintances from many countries actively contacted him, such as Tahara Yasue in Tokyo. The other party took the initiative to find him and expressed his willingness to contact Japanese groups and financial groups.

Link was a little surprised at the time. He remembered that Yasue Tahara was one of the heads of Universal Pictures' Japan branch, but now he was involved in politics. The other party's identity seemed a bit complicated.

Link thought that the other party had deliberately arranged women for him in the past, and asked the other party if he had expected that his old father-in-law would participate in the election, so he contacted him in advance to achieve some political intention.

Tahara Yasue denied it, saying that when they first contacted him in 2011, his father-in-law's performance in the political arena was average, and they did not expect his father-in-law to run for office.

Tahara Yasue said that the reason why he actively contacted him was not because he was optimistic about his old father-in-law, but because he was optimistic about him. He said that he was a great person and would definitely achieve great things in the future, so he invested in advance.

Link also had to sigh that the other party had really good vision.

In addition to Tahara Yasue, Link also has contacts with Beijing, Seoul, Saudi Arabia and other parties.

However, the political arena in the United States is too deep, and Link does not want to get involved too deeply before he understands the various forces, so after contact, he will transfer the relationship to his old father-in-law, and it will be up to them to decide what to do in the end.

Link is equivalent to a broker.

After the Olympics, Link received more than 30 commercial endorsements worth more than 30 million. While in New York, in addition to helping his old father-in-law stand up, he was also busy filming various advertisements. He had too much work every day. Come.

At the beginning of September, Link put down his work and flew to Italy to attend the 73rd Venice International Film Festival Awards Ceremony.

The Venice Film Festival, the Cannes International Film Festival and the Berlin International Film Festival are also known as the world's three major international film festivals.

Founded in 1932, it is also the world's first international film festival and is known as the "Father of International Film Festivals".

The Venice International Film Festival takes "film as a serious art service" as its purpose and "improving the level of film art" as its main purpose.

When judging awards, more emphasis is placed on the 'artistic quality' of the film.

There are 1,214 films participating in this year's Venice Film Festival, three of which belong to Lionsgate Pictures, including "La La Land", "Dirty Love" and "Unbreakable" directed by Angelina Jolie.

After a week of exhibitions and selections, "La La Land" and "Bad Love" were shortlisted for the main competition section, Link and Emma Stone were nominated for Best Actor and Actor, and "Unbreakable" was shortlisted for the Horizon section.

The Venice Film Festival Awards Ceremony was held on September 10. Emma Stone won the Best Actress Award, and Link and Spanish actor Oscar Martinez shared the Best Actor trophy.

"Bad Love" won the Special Jury Prize, and the Russian film "War Paradise" and Mexico's "Savage Zone" jointly won the Silver Lion Award for Best Director.

Nocturnal Animals starring Amy Adams won the Grand Jury Prize Silver Lion.

Angelina Jolie won the Horizon Award for Best Director for "Unbreakable".

This trip to Venice can be considered a fruitful return, and Link has become the youngest winner of the three major European film festivals in the history of film.

As of the fall season, Lionsgate Pictures has four movies released, including "Broken Love," "Unbreakable," "The Visitor," and "Hereditary."

"Bad Love" is one of the films co-produced by Lionsgate Pictures and Annapurna Pictures. It tells the story of a girl who lives in the ruins of Texas. In order to leave Texas controlled by cannibals and find a future of belonging and love, The story of her going on the road alone, facing danger and the unknown, and welcoming a new life. The movie stars Jason Momoa, Keanu Reeves, Jim Carrey, Suki Waterhouse and others.

The production cost was US$12 million. It grossed US$3.09 million at the box office in 228 theaters during its first week of release. The box office performance was average. After ten days of release overseas, the film grossed US$2.35 million in total.

The film is expected to lose millions of dollars.

"Unbreakable" will be released next to "Bad Love". The film is adapted from Laura Hillenbrand's "Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption" and tells the story of World War II pilot Louis Zamperini. , during a mission, due to a plane crash, he was unfortunately captured by Japanese soldiers and sent to a prisoner of war camp, where he suffered hardships.

The film was directed by Angelina Jolie and cost $65 million to produce.

　　It was released in 3,131 theaters in North America in the first week, with a box office of 62.52 million US dollars. The box office in the first week has paid back, and the North American box office is expected to be more than 100 million US dollars.

This box office figure exceeded the expectations of Lionsgate Pictures and the media.

In 2014, Sony Pictures was hacked, and a large number of email communications continued to be leaked. One of the messages involved Angelina Jolie, and the famous producer Scott Rudin was sending a message to Sony Pictures co-chairman E. When Mi Pascal sent the email, she claimed that 'Julie is a spoiled child with no talent and a psychopath'.

This incident also made Julie suffer a lot of ridicule. Now that "Unbreakable" is a box office hit, Julie is also very proud.

"Unbreakable" was released in North America for 16 days, with a cumulative box office of US$102 million.

It also became Lionsgate's eighth film to hit a box office of over 100 million in North America this year.

The box office performance in overseas regions is also good, because the film criticizes Japanese atrocities, and it received more than 18 million US dollars at the box office in China alone.

It also received more than 30 million box office in other regions.

After three weeks of release, the total box office has reached 154 million U.S. dollars.

In September and October, the competition between the old father-in-law and his rival Mrs. Larich became increasingly fierce, and Link had to put down his work and pay attention to some political issues.

With his help, my father-in-law unexpectedly defeated the Donkey Party candidate Larich in the California election, which was originally the territory of the Donkey Party, and won 20 votes in the state. The total number of votes reached 308, surpassing his opponent by 32 open.

Some media claim that Link is the trump card for his father-in-law's victory in the election. Link has huge influence among young people, and one person is worth a full campaign team.

However, this kind of thing is a mixed blessing for Link. The good thing is that it can help the old father-in-law win the election. The bad thing is that if the old father-in-law does something that is not conducive to voters in the future, he will also receive a lot of criticism.

It's just that he is now Ivaca's husband, and in the public mind, he and his old father-in-law are the same.

There are some things that you can't avoid even if you don't want to get involved with them.

After more than a year of campaigning, my father-in-law received 336 votes in the 50 states of the United States. He successfully defeated Mrs. Larich, who received 202 votes. He successfully won this election and became the legal successor to the United States of America.

Link is also called the number one prince-consort by foreign media.

Link was originally an ordinary beach boy. In less than eight years, he became the 13th richest man in the world, a world superstar, a super athlete, a world boxing champion, and the son-in-law of the United States.

Media from various countries call it the 'American Miracle' and 'the most gorgeous American Dream'.
