Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion

On March 29, Link Music announced on its Twitter account the first-week US sales of Link’s third album "The Woman I Love".

1.747 million copies!

Becoming the 15th album in Western music history to surpass one million copies in first-week sales, Link became the twelfth singer in music history to achieve first-week platinum sales.

Billboard also updated its record for the highest first-week sales in history this week.

The first place is held by the super boy band, with their third album "No Strings Attached" released in 2000, boasting first-week sales of 2.41 million copies.

The second place goes to the super boy band with their fourth album "Celebrity", released in 2001, which sold 1.88 million copies in its first week.

Third place is Eminem with his third album "The Marshall Mathers LP" released in 2000, selling 1.76 million copies in the first week.

In fourth place is Link’s third album "The Woman I Love" released in March 2010, with first-week sales of 1.74 million copies. Your next chapter awaits on

Fifth place belongs to the Backstreet Boys with their fourth album "Black & Blue" released in 2000, achieving first-week sales of 1.591 million copies.

Sixth is Eminem’s fourth studio album "The Eminem Show" released in 2002, with first-week sales of 1.322 million copies.

The seventh spot is claimed by Britney Spears with her second album "Oops!... I Did It Again" released in 2000, selling 1.32 million copies in the first week.

The rest includes Whitney Houston, the first singer in music history to sell over one million copies of an album in its first week.

There’s also The Beatles with their album "1" released in 2000, country music king Garth Brooks with "Double Live", and Limp Bizkit’s "Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water".

Jazz singer Norah Jones with "Feels Like Home", Usher with "Confessions", 50 Cent with "The Massacre" and Lil Wayne with "Tha Carter III".

"This is an excellent album, and Link is one of the most formidable music stars of the new generation."

In the feature article on the front page of the latest Billboard issue, editor-in-chief Steven Konop praised Link’s album.

He called this album the best love album in Western music in the past decade, and the eighteen high-quality songs make this album extremely valuable. He also praised Link’s significant improvement in singing skills, the rich emotion in his performances, and the more mature style compared to his second album, believing that he has taken a big step forward on the path of music.

Link was somewhat pleased to see these professional evaluations.

On one hand, the recognition of his singing skills by professionals and the great breakthroughs achieved in his song interpretation abilities were worth celebrating.

On the other hand, his semi-original work "the rose" was also considered a good song, which was the most gratifying aspect as it meant his music creation was no longer without a source.

"The Woman I Love" sold 1.74 million copies in its first week, undoubtedly ranking first on the Billboard 200 album chart.

Second place went to Justin Bieber’s "my world 2.0", which sold 153,000 copies in its fourth week in the US, with a cumulative sales of 1.02 million copies; he also became the first singer in music history to sell one million records in the first month at only sixteen years of age.

Third place was the pre-war goddess with "Need You Now", which sold 97,000 copies in its 14th week, with cumulative sales of 2.02 million copies, also making it the first record to break two million in sales this year. ṙÃꞐȰᛒĚṡ

Fourth is Wiz Khalifa’s "Deal Or No Deal", which sold 89,000 copies in its fifth week, with a total US sales of 718,000 copies, making it very likely to exceed one million in sales within the year.

On the singles chart, "Here With You" currently holds the number one spot on the singles chart.

"Girls Like You", "Everything You Need", "Someone You Loved", "Stay With Me", "The Woman I Love", ranked second, fourth, sixth, ninth, and tenth, respectively.

"Legends Never Die", after maintaining six consecutive weeks at number one, was toppled by "Here With You" and ranked third on the singles chart this week.

Link also became the first singer in music history to have seven songs in the singles chart top 10 at the same time, narrowly missing out on The Beatles’ record of dominating the top five in 1964.

In this album, 16 songs entered the top 100 singles chart, surpassing The Beatles’ record of having 14 songs in the top 100 in the same period in 1964.

Including "Legends Never Die", having 17 songs enter the top 100 in the same period also incited a wave of admiration.

Previously, music fans and the media said that all eighteen songs on the album were premium quality, one album worth ten; many thought this was excessive praise of Link.

After the singles chart was released, with sixteen songs entering the top 100, it proved that the previous flurry of praise was not exaggerated.

In addition, the songs on the album also set multiple new records on charts such as streaming media, radio requests, and digital music downloads.

As for these records, Link did not care too much; records are meant to be broken. As more and more people buy digital albums and record companies focus more on marketing when selling records, it will be easier to break records in the future.

For instance, the first-week sales record, with Adele’s album "25" selling 3.37 million copies in the first week in the future, and on the singles chart top 100, Taylor’s songs will dominate the top ten in the future.

However, breaking his record of having 17 songs enter the top 100 at the same time will be more difficult, as no one will include 18 songs on one album, and all of them good songs.

Additionally, this album was priced at 29.5 US dollars each, almost double that of other artists.

With such a high price yet achieving first-week sales of 1.74 million copies, it sparked a hot debate, with all manner of high praise heaped upon him, such as pop king, male god, superman, golden boy, dominator of the music world, and so on.

Until a minute ago, looking at these exaggerated accolades, he would have felt pressured, worried about being sensationalized to death.

And just moments ago, his worries had been alleviated.

Ivanka called him with good news, she had obtained the video.

SB projects, managed by Scooter, was also planning to work with Link’s music, currently under negotiation.

According to Ivanka, based on the rights to "Baby," Link Music could get 25% of SB Projects company shares and 45% of Justin Bieber’s management contract, but she wanted more.

"Ivanka, you’re amazing, I only asked you to trade the rights for the video, but not only did you secure the video, you also got shares worth tens of millions of US dollars from Scooter, incredible, you’re too incredible."

Link praised without reservation.

"Don’t flatter me, I’ve always said that I am the manager of the company. It’s my job to grow the company. Your job is to focus on writing and singing songs, without worrying about other matters. So in the future, if you encounter something like this, just tell me, and I’ll handle everything."

Ivanka spoke with a nonchalant voice, seemingly indifferent, but Link could still detect a hint of pride in her tone.

"Yes, you are indeed a great partner, not only beautiful but also with a smart brain. Do you remember what I told you when we first met? I said you were a thoughtful and intelligent woman, my judgment of people is too accurate."

Link said with admiration.

From the other end of the phone, Ivanka hummed lightly, "Stop buttering me up. Guess what I am doing now?"

"What? Working?"

"Humph, I am watching your sex tape."

Ivanka said with a mocking laugh.

Link felt a bit embarrassed, "What’s the content, who’s the female lead?"

"Don’t you know who the female lead is? Are you saying you’ve fooled around with so many women in changing rooms that you can’t even be sure who it is?"

Ivanka questioned.

"No! Is it... Beyonce?"

"Beyonce?!!"

A clattering noise came through the phone as if Ivanka had knocked something over. After a moment, she spoke with suppressed astonishment, "Beyonce? When did you get together with Beyonce? She’s a married woman, you dare to mess around with her?"

Link tugged at the corner of his mouth, mentally kicking himself. The woman in the video wasn’t Beyonce; he shouldn’t have confessed so early.

He said helplessly, "It was after the Grammy Awards last time. I was changing clothes after my performance, and she came into the changing room. When I rejected her, she accused me of being racist."

"You really are a jerk. No wonder you were so nervous before. It turns out you were worried about being accused of having an affair with a married woman, especially Jay-Z’s wife. You truly are an incredible jerk."

Ivanka lashed out at him.

Link resigned himself to accept it, "Ivanka, it was my fault, but don’t beat around the bush. Besides Beyonce, I don’t remember fooling around in the changing room."

"Emma Watson, London, last September, have you forgotten?"

Ivanka returned with a light snort.

"Emma Watson? Impossible, that time after my match, she came in to congratulate me, we just kissed and hugged for a while. There were people like Harry Potter, Blond Ron, and Coach Brooks in the changing room as well, how could I possibly mess around with Emma in front of them."

"Are you sure? This video is over thirty minutes long. It seems to be secretly filmed by someone hiding in the wardrobe; it’s not very clear. The beginning resembles your description, Emma Watson jumps into your arms and kisses you passionately. Tsk, Emma Watson looks quite innocent, turns out she’s so lascivious. You’re kissing and talking, then you both go into the changing room and mess around behind a curtain. Although it’s not clear, the shadows show what’s happening."

"It’s fake, I left to do an interview after getting dressed, I wasn’t in the changing room for more than ten minutes. Take a closer look, see if there are signs of editing."

After a while, Ivanka told him that after the third minute, there indeed were signs of editing, it looks like someone re-enacted the latter part in that changing room based on the initial part of the content, putting together a complete video, probably with the intent to extort money.

"All that worry over several days about a fake video, little Kunas really is a fool, spending a million pounds on a fake video and getting scammed without knowing it."

Ivanka laughed.

"I think it’s pretty good, a close call without any trouble."

"Hmph! This time it was a close call without trouble, but next time might not be the same. Next time you fool around outside, could you perhaps get a hotel room? Is it that thrilling in the changing room?"

"I’ve got it, there won’t be a next time."

"You don’t have to promise me anything; I’m not your girlfriend."

With a huff, Ivanka hung up the phone.

Link touched his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. He had spent days fretting over a non-issue, but British paparazzi are indeed crazy enough to infiltrate like rats.
