America is in control

Chapter 56 Bad News and Image Building

Liu Jiang bit the bullet and watched five videotapes with Rooney again.

The hatred for Stephen grew stronger in his heart.

After finally sending the other party out of the room, Liu Jiang collapsed on the big bed and refused to move.

After resting for a moment, Liu Jiang suddenly remembered something important, and he squirmed and moved to the bed.

Picked up the phone and dialed the familiar number.

"Hey, baby, do you miss me?"

"What the hell! John, I don't need to remind you how long ago it was last we met! A month, a whole month!"

"Ellie, I dreamed of you again last night. You were wearing the dress you wore at the MTV Movie Awards. It was so beautiful!"

"Don't change the subject for me, am I that beautiful? Then why don't you come to see me?"

"Coach Rooney asked me to maintain sufficient physical strength before the game. My first professional boxing match will start the day after tomorrow."

"Are you in Las Vegas? It's a pity that I can't come to cheer you on. Someone from a rock band came to me today and asked me to make a music video."

"Shit! Rock band! What's their name? Ellie, be careful of those rock band members! They play messy and dirty!"

"What do you know! That's Aerosmith! Do you know what that name means?"

"Ellie, listen to me, don't get mixed up with their group, it won't be good for you!"

"John, you have changed! You sound like a bad old man now! That's it for today!"

"Ellie, listen to me"

"Dudududu!"

Liu Jiang put down the phone with a gloomy face, unable to vent his frustration.

This girl who has only been protected for a short time is blowing off like this?
Just blow it!

The next girl is better behaved, the next girl is more beautiful!
Leaning back and lying on the comfortable and soft bed, Liu Jiang didn't know what to do for a moment.

From time to time, the image of Alicia appears in my mind.

This gave him an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Not wanting to waste his energy, Liu Jiang simply got up and prepared to go to the gym at Caesars Palace to vent his anger.

The professional facilities in the gym are quite complete. After putting on bandages and gloves, Liu Jiang began to punch the heavy sandbag crazily.

The crackling sound echoed throughout the gym for a long time.

He didn't know how long he had been beating with heavy sandbags, but suddenly there was a cough from behind General Liu.

"John, that's it! You have to attend the press conference tomorrow, so don't embarrass yourself too much!"

Liu Jiang stopped hitting the heavy sandbags and turned around silently.

What came face to face were eyes full of concern, Harvey and Alfonso were looking at him intently.

"Don't worry! I'm fine. I just want to warm up."

Liu Jiang felt warm in his heart and said in a somewhat pretentious manner.

"You call this a warm-up? Maybe the sandbag will have a different opinion! Look at it, it's almost vomiting blood from you!"

Harvey showed an exaggerated expression on his face and pointed at the somewhat deformed heavy sandbag.

"So long! I admit that I was in a bad mood, but I have adjusted it now!"

After untying his gloves and wiping the sweat from his forehead, Liu Jiang pretended to be relaxed.

"John, are you really okay? Your face doesn't look very good!"

Compared with Harvey, Alfonso's expression was much more serious.

"Don't worry, uncle, I'm fine. I just want to come and practice. It's my first professional boxing match, and I'm still a little nervous!"

Liu Jiang was not nervous about the competition at all. All he wanted to do now was to get over it quickly.

"It's okay. I thought you came here to vent because you were dumped." Alfonso said to himself. He didn't even notice that General Liu's face was covered with black lines.

"Let's go! Don't stand here stupidly. We have to go back to the room to discuss what to say at tomorrow's press conference."

Harvey stole a glance at General Liu, grabbed Alfonso's arm and walked away.

After letting out a soft breath, Liu Jiang followed the two of them and left the gym.

Back in the room, the three of them sat together and communicated quietly.

"John, what kind of image do you want to project in front of the public?"

"This is very important and is directly related to the development of your future career."

"Any ambitious public figure will carefully build his or her image."

"So what did you think about it?"

Harvey looked at the other party with sharp eyes, waiting for his response.

"Can you give me some examples? I don't even know a few sports stars. I am more familiar with Michael Jordan who plays basketball and Tyson who plays boxing."

Liu Jiang spared his head and smiled awkwardly at the other party.

"Let me take Jordan and Tyson, who you are familiar with, as examples. When you see their photos or hear their names, what is the first word that pops into your mind?"

Harvey was like a persuasive mentor, guiding General Liu step by step.

"Omnipotent? Brutal and cruel? Are you saying that this is the image they create to the outside world?"

Liu Jiang somewhat understood what Harvey meant. Isn't this what celebrities in domestic entertainment call their personalities?

"Bingo! You are very smart, but you are not entirely right."

"Part of Jordan's image comes from himself, and the other part is someone's deliberate guidance."

"Tyson is a little different. His image is more based on his own performance."

"Do you understand the difference between the two?"

Harvey briefly analyzed it, and General Liu came to his senses.

"What you mean is that by combining your own characteristics with deliberate guidance, you can get a positive and consistent image."

"John, it seems that you completely understand what I mean. I think the name given to you by the tabloid reporter you approached last time is quite good."

"Caesar?"

"NO! It's the new Caesar! The invincible new Caesar!"

Holyfield VS Mitchell Muller pre-match press conference.

Liu Jiang, who is still just a little Karami, is the first boxer to appear.

He straightened his clothes and walked out with a high head.

The moment the background music "Veni Vidi Vici" played, the entire scene suddenly fell silent.

When Liu Jiang appeared in front of everyone while stepping on the beat, he instantly attracted a lot of attention.

The big screen at the scene also began to play his wonderful KOs in amateur competitions.

Walking to the stage in a few steps, Liu Jiang came to the front seat in the center to face the seventy or eighty reporters in the audience.

He assumed the classic Caesar pose, with his right hand extended flat and his index finger pointing straight ahead.

His left hand clenched his fist and hung on the side of his chest, his gaze seemed to be extremely firm.

Unfortunately, only a few reporters raised their cameras to capture this scene.

The pose that Liu Jiang and Harvey came up with after deliberation for a long time was simply in vain.

At this moment Liu Jiang's opponent Stephen Crawford appeared.
