Now Donnie wanted to create just such a program.


    Boxing matches have always been a sports event beloved by the American public, but unlike other league games, it has been difficult for boxing to form aplete timeline of matches.


    At present, more boxing matches are mutual challenges between two boxers. If both parties reach a consensus, they will look for an organizer for the match. Then, both sides will start to prepare, with the organizer covering the appearance fees required; of course, the ticket revenue would also go to the organizer!

    The appearance fees for boxers have always been high. In the 1990s, Tyson''s appearance fee once reached 30 million US dors. By the time Donnie was reborn, Mayweather''s appearance fee had even reached hundreds of millions of dors!


    This was actually on par with the astonishingly high appearance fees for boxers in the United States at the time.


    The annual sry of Major League Baseball''s current star, Babe Ruth, at 125,000 US dors had already drawn nationwide attention.


    But this was just a drop in the bucketpared to Jack Dempsey''s appearance fee.


    If it weren''t for Donnie''s emergence, this July, Jack Dempsey was scheduled to face George Caponti in a boxing match where Dempsey''s appearance fee would be a whopping one million dors!


    Actually, one could gauge Jack Dempsey''s current national fame from his appearance fee.


    "You want to organize a boxing match?"


    Robert was surprised by Donnie''s line of thinking.


    Donnie nodded, "Exactly, as long as we can ensure the listenership of Antic City Broadcast continues to rise with the poprization of the radio, we will be the biggest broadcastingpany in the United States. Then, even if Reed Haggie wants to cooperate with KDKA, he would have to consider the voice within the collegiate alliance.


    No one wouldin about having more listeners for their matches!"@@novelbin@@


    After some thought, Robert agreed with Donnie''s idea and said, "But Antic Citycks a suitable venue for thepetition!"


    Given Jack Dempsey''s current fame, a public match would require a stadium that can amodate at least 50,000 people.


    Antic City obviously did not meet this requirement.


    Donnie said, "I''ve already thought about this. We can contact Boyle Stadium, which can hold 75,000 people, enough to meet our needs!"


    Boyle Stadium is thergest sports venue in New Jersey and is not too far from Antic City.


    Using it as the main venue would be entirely feasible.


    They just needed to rent out the time slot for the match in advance!


    .


    Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, KDKA headquarters.


    KDKA took Reid Hajj''s visit seriously, not only was their general manager Vasili Bernard there, but Westinghouse''s general manager Luke Jackson also personally weed him.


    Moreover, their entertainment activity was very interesting. Including a member of the collegiate alliance, the four sat down to y Mahjong!


    Indeed, Mahjong had already spread to the United States during this period.


    At the turn of the century, an American named Joseph Babcock, representative of Standard Oil in Suzhou, China, developed an intense interest in Mahjong immediately upon his arrival.


    After returning to the United States, he brought this activity with him.


    The Wright brothers, inventors of the airne, introduced the activity to the Americanmunity in Shanghai, and it became very popr within this circle.


    Therefore, it was only natural for Mahjong to be introduced into the United States.


    A San Francisco lumber trader, realizing the fun of Mahjong, immediately adjusted his business direction, abandoning his lumber business to be a Mahjong importer. This switch earned him a profit of 50,000 US dors that year.


    Toplement the marketing of Mahjong, dealers nationwide advertised this new form of entertainment, while also offering free guidance to customers. Anyone who purchased a Mahjong set could learn to y for free.


    These initiatives quickly turned Mahjong into a pastime for high society in America.


    ording to the book "The Great Prosperity Era," in the early twenties, the entertainment of choice for many American families was having four friends gathered around a radio, enjoying the music while shuffling the Mahjong tiles on the table.


    "Two bamboos!" Luke Jackson eximed, after discarding a tile and said with a smile to Reid Hajj, "Reid, with your detour to Pittsburgh, I bet Donnie is very angry right now!"


    "Pung!" Reid Hajj joyously picked up the two bamboos Jackson had discarded and then replied with augh, "Well, it can''t be helped. Our collegiate alliance is a pure market. If we get involved with Antic City, wouldn''t that make us seem like a gambling business to the American public, just like Major League Baseball!"


    "Haha!" Luke Jackson burst outughing and said, "That''s right, the collegiate alliance will definitely not be corrupted by the gambling industry!"


    At this point, after studying his hand, Reid Hajj discarded a three bamboos and continued, "However, Luke, the collegiate alliance, after all, is also apetition. Although the colleges across the country appreciate the exclusive broadcasting fee you''re offering, they are also looking for greater influence. Your listening rates at KDKA... that''s a real problem!"


    Luke Jackson frowned slightly upon hearing this.


    KDKA''s general manager Vasili Bernard said, "Mr. Hajj, rest assured on this matter, ourpany has nowpleted the signal coverage for all cities in the eastern United States. I believe with the addition of the collegiate alliance, we will definitely attract more viewers, and then we can cover other cities!"
