Pen Fun Club www.wuxiaspot.com, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the King of the Bay Area!
Lu Ke, a Chinese, is about three months away from reaching 22 years of age. In August 2011, he officially joined the San Francisco 49ers as a member of the team. At the same time, he became the second player in the NFL history to join the official list. Chinese players
In 2010, Chinese player Wang / Kai, the divisional offensive tackle, was selected by Buffalo Bill in the fifth round of the 140th overall pick in the draft, becoming the first Chinese player to enter the league in history. He hasn't started any games. Last season, he played only six games as a rotation player and participated in a small part of the offense.
Just last week, Buffalo Bill announced that he would be placed on the injury list (see note).
The dream has really come true!
Excited emotions, surging excitement and surging joy rushed across his chest, full of locals almost breathless, and the overflowing happiness, brewing a urge to scream, shout, cheer. So, Lu Ke did so.
Lu Ke clenched his fists, jumped high, waved his right fist, thumped wildly in the air, exhausted all his strength, vented his inner excitement and excitement; every cell of the body was roaring, body Every muscle in is celebrating, even the fingertips start to tremble slightly, as if the blood is flowing to the boiling point.
It ’s not just the past year. This long dream path can be traced back to a distant childhood. When I was nine years old, I first stepped on the rugby field, from toddler to hardship, one step at a time, After the hardships and sweat, struggle and hard work in the past 12 years, he finally knocked on this door!
He knows that the world behind the gate is more difficult, cruel, and more difficult; he also knows that this is just the simplest first step on the road to success. However, he is ready, he will continue to move forward with his head high, nothing can stop him! Overcome the thorns, cross the mountains, ride the wind and waves, and move forward!
After arrogantly and arrogantly jumping up and down, Lu Ke realized that Tom standing next to him, his face could not help showing a little jerky. The release of excitement / love just moments ago seems a bit unforgettable.
However, Tom did not care at all, but stood quietly with a smile on his face, "Fans will like this way of celebrating, especially after you touch down."
Although his chest is still full of passion, and although happiness is still rolling, Lu Ke still forced himself to calm down and said with a smile, "The premise is that I can get the chance to play." The substitute quarterback is still a substitute, senior. This season, Lu Ke sat on the cold bench for a whole season, and he was no stranger to it.
Such ridicule made Tom smile. This rookie is very talkative and easy-going. He believes that the media will also like him. Of course, the premise is that he can play; and, to win the game.
"Where did we just say?" Tom returned to the topic again. "Yes, lawyer. We must hurry up now." Tom greeted Landing and walked into the elevator. After pushing down the floor, he thought for himself, " Lawyers will answer questions about the contract, and now I need to understand a few things. "
"First of all, you are the team's third quarterback." Tom did not explain further, but Lu Ke nodded clearly.
Things are clear, the San Francisco 49ers decided to choose Colin Kapnick as the team's main quarterback. The next four preseason games will be Colin's best stage; Alex Smith is the ball The team's second quarterback, it seems that his injury is not as serious as the media reported. In the regular season, Alex may play at any time to regain the position of the main quarterback-mainly depends on Colin as Rookie quarterback performance.
Naturally, Lu Ke is the third quarterback, an alternative.
"Second, what is your jersey number?" Tom asked, and Lu Ke reflexively said "11", and then saw Tom shaking his head, "Alix is number 11, you can only choose other numbers ... "
Tom is also going to let Lu Ke go back and think slowly, but Lu Ke immediately added, "What about the 14th?" His birthday is November 11th. If he chooses the date of birth as the password, this will come to him That said, it is indeed an unfavorable condition. In addition to the number "11", Lu Ke's favorite number is "14", "1" represents "11", and "4" represents the "four ones" of the birthday number.
"Then it's the fourteenth." Tom decided on the occasion.
Lu Ke couldn't help but think of it: when the system asked him his jersey number, he chose "eleven", so now he has become "fourteen" again, is this a conflict? Or is it that the jersey number of the system is adjusted accordingly according to his actual situation in real life?
However, his thoughts just flashed, and Tom went on to say, "Today is just to browse the contract, explain the contract, and will not formally sign the contract. Tomorrow morning, you need to come to the team for a comprehensive medical examination, waiting After the medical report is issued, we will arrange a formal contract. "
"Understood." Lu Ke has no objections to this, which is also the standard process for team signing.
"Also, the team's training schedule will be sent to your mailbox by then, don't worry. But basically this is the case. Monday is a holiday, watch the video on Tuesday, and officially report to the team base on Wednesday to start training. Of course, according to the team's game time, there may be changes. "Tom quickly explained.
In the official season, Sunday is a regular game day, and most games start on time in the afternoon; in addition, there are Thursday night games, Sunday night games, and Monday night games. These three games will be held nationwide. For live broadcasting in a wide range, the number of viewers in each game is maintained at an average of 20 million or even 30 million.
The training schedule is naturally different on different game days.
Immediately afterwards, there was a big break. "The training time is 9 am every day, and we will notify you in special cases. Also, I will arrange a dietitian, a physical therapist to meet with you as soon as possible, and arrange a recipe for you. However, these are the things afterwards, you Don't worry too much. "
"Oh, the last thing, your personal lockers, your training items, jerseys, etc., these will be arranged tomorrow, you do n’t have to worry." After leaving the elevator, Tom ’s footsteps stopped, " So, do you have any other questions? "
"Can you give me one of your business cards?" Lu Ke's answer made Tom smile with satisfaction, and took out a business card from his jacket pocket.
However, instead of handing it to Lu Ke directly, Tom confessed, "Using the phone during working hours, using the mail during off hours, emergency situations, my so-called emergency situations include any accidents, for example, you are drunk in a bar , Fighting for jealousy, fighting with others. Be sure to call me. If you have an agent, let your agent call me as soon as possible. "
As a preliminary reporter, Lu Ke knew better than Tom how to define the so-called "accident", but he didn't say much. He just nodded and "understand." Then he took the business card and looked up and down. He still wore a training jersey and had no pockets at all, so he could only hold it in his palm.
Tom pushed open the glass door in front of him and said with a smile, "My work is over. See you tomorrow!"
Entering the office behind the glass door, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes greeted him actively, "Good afternoon, I am Jonas-Fish, a lawyer representing the American Football League Players Union. you."
In the United States, trade unions are a very important link. Take rugby as an example. All contracts, legal affairs, and personal interests of players, in addition to agents, unions will come forward, do their utmost to protect players, and fight against the league and the team.
An unknown soldier like Lu Ke who has no agent, no agent to guard him, and no lawyer to look over for him, once signed an unequal slave contract, it is nowhere to complain. In order to prevent this situation, the league official requires that for the current rookie and unsuccessful rookie, the team must have a union lawyer present when signing the contract. Other players who are not rookies can apply if they have needs.
"Lu Ke." Lu Ke also took the initiative to step forward, holding the other hand, and then Jonas said with a smile, "The next thing, please don't speak for the moment, leave it to me, what's wrong afterwards?" , We can discuss again. "So Lu Ke did the same.
Intersecting lines is like a mountain. For a preliminary reporter, the legal provisions are really not his specialty. After the 49-person San Francisco official lawyer came forward, Lu Ke gave everything to Jonas, and the two sides exchanged opinions on the legal provisions.
In fact, in order to protect the interests of rookie players, the league has clear regulations for the minimum salary of rookie players, and specific to different rounds, the salary of the first round of the show is naturally the highest; but the league only specifies the lower limit, as for the upper limit, It depends on the broker's negotiation methods.
Lost rookies are also included.
Basically, the rookie contract is the official version, and there are slight differences between the teams. Despite this, Jonas still discussed every detail meticulously, and it took about forty minutes before and after the negotiation. Afterwards, Jonas borrowed a meeting room to explain with Lu Ke.
"Personal suggestion, you'd better read each item of the contract in detail. If you have any questions, write them in the email, summarize them, send them to me, and I will answer them." Jonas paused for a moment. Most professional players do not like to deal with these matters, which is too cumbersome for them, and too exhausting.
But surprisingly, Lu Ke did not, and he still listened intently.
The corners of Jonas' mouth could not help but slightly tilted, "If you don't have enough patience to read the entire contract, I have made a note here, these parts are closely related to your personal interests, I think you should be concerned." In the past, many players would not even want these parts, but signed directly, "Finally, about the salary part. 49 people gave a reasonable number, I think there is no problem."
Under Jonas's gesture, Lu Ke looked down at the contract in his hand, and then saw a series of numbers, and he raised his eyebrows involuntarily.
Note: Amend the previous content error. Wang Kai was the first Chinese player to land in the NFL, but he was not a starter nor a quarterback.
