In the morning, the weather in New York was nice.

It was early spring, with warm sunshine and fresh air. The mulberry and plane trees on the streets had sprouted tender green leaves, and next door in Greenwich Park, the flowers and willows were vibrant in color, more pleasing to the eye than the neon lights at night.

Scott was carrying his workbag and stood on the sidewalk, listening to a street singer perform "Girls Like You".

In terms of singing technique and performance skills, the singer was not much inferior to Link, but what did that matter? After all, that was Link, a billionaire, world boxing champion, one of the fastest money-makers on the planet, and also one of the most handsome men in the world.

The song was his, and once he sang it, it would be graced with his aura, much like the underwear once worn by Marilyn Monroe. The same material and design could fetch wildly different prices and popularity.

This was why, Scott thought regretfully, promotion and marketing would become increasingly important in the entertainment industry. For those underground singers who only knew how to hone their skills without knowing how to market themselves, their success depended entirely on luck.

When Scott arrived at SB Entertainment, he found the staff sipping coffee and chatting, looking as if they had nothing to do.

He was displeased; SB Entertainment and Link Music had already reached a partnership intent. Link Music was going to become a major shareholder of SB Company and would even send people to work there.

If Ivanka, that woman, saw the company like this, she might take the opportunity to slash at him again.

"Boss!"

Before he could speak, his assistant Alex came over and told him that the company’s network system had been attacked by hackers, causing the work system to crash, and it was currently being repaired.

"Hackers? What do they want with our company’s system?"

Scott frowned and asked.

"The reason is still unknown."

"Check the music library. Maybe someone is trying to steal our songs using this method,"

Scott said urgently.

"Boss, the music library is on a local network with a firewall. There’s no need to worry,"

Alex replied.

Scott felt somewhat relieved after hearing this. The internet, while making work more convenient, also brought a lot of trouble.

He reminded Alex to make sure that all works created by their musicians were properly recorded in advance, and that all completed works had to be registered. They must neither plagiarize others’ works nor allow theirs to be plagiarized.

While they were talking, the network engineer hired by the company told them that the system was repaired, the virus was cleaned up, and he also suggested that they refrain from watching porn videos on company computers as those carry more viruses than a dead rat.

Scott wanted to say that no one in the company watched those videos, but the network engineer left with his tools right after speaking.

Back in his office, Scott turned on his computer and suddenly remembered there was a porn video on it. He watched it again and then clicked delete.

On April 2, "The Woman I Love" hit its tenth day since release, breaking the 2 million sales mark nationwide, totaling 2.008 million copies, and becoming the second album of 2010 to achieve Double Platinum status in the United States.

It was also the album that had reached Double Platinum status in the shortest time in the past eight years.

On the same day, Link defeated boxing legend Roy Jones Jr. at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, adding another victory to his professional career.

Link Studio and Link Music, Dynasty Promotions all tweeted their congratulations to Link for his double joy.

His boxing and music fans were super excited, converging on Link’s fan club website to celebrate wildly, posting many beautiful photos of Link and videos of the match, as well as many photos taken with Link.

According to the site’s administrators, more than 800,000 users logged in within one day, making Link’s fan site the most visited at the moment.

That same afternoon at five o’clock, a video titled "Real: Link and Emma Watson’s Sex Tape" was uploaded to YouTube.

As Link was one of the most popular celebrities in the United States at the moment and Emma Watson had gained worldwide fame for the "Harry Potter" movies, both had extremely high popularity in Europe, America, and around the world.

The video exploded like an atomic bomb upon release, causing a significant shock across the web.

In just three hours, it was viewed over 120 million times, downloaded 3.5 million times, and caused YouTube’s system to collapse three times, preventing users from successfully logging in.

Subsequent investigations by YouTube’s data department revealed that before the video was taken down for copyright infringement, it had reached a global viewership of 552 million in just 13 hours and 25 minutes, becoming the fastest video in YouTube’s history to surpass half a billion plays. It reached 13.34 million paid downloads, also becoming the first video to exceed ten million downloads.

Even though the original video on YouTube was deleted, many major news and social networking sites including Yahoo, Pornhub, MySpace, Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter, the official website of the "New York Post," the official website of the "Los Angeles Times," the official website of the "Hollywood Reporter," Link fan club, Harry Potter fan club, and so on,

All posted related videos and links, and countless smaller websites did the same. Discover hidden tales at

Many website workers said: It’s impossible to remove them all completely.

The video was 32 minutes and 46 seconds long, shot from the angle of inside a changing room’s wardrobe. The footage was shaky at first, until Link entered from outside and then the camera became steady. The first two minutes were of Link talking with his coach Brooks and assistant Simon.

Link asked Simon how his opponent, Carl Froch, was doing.
