The stormy waves that belonged to the alliance have just begun. Taking the press conference as the center, a single stone arouses thousands of waves, and within a short time, no signs of recovery have been seen. The work behind the scenes is still not over, just like climbing the peak of the power pyramid, climbing up layer by layer.

After leaving the press conference in front of the stage, under the guidance of the staff, Lu Ke came to the VIP room at Staples Stadium.

The VIP room is like an office in a high-rise building, overlooking the sentient beings in a condescending position, and the whole stadium is included in the eyes, showing dignity and uniqueness, and grasping the situation from a global perspective. Everyone is trying to climb up, but not everyone can reach the highest point of the pyramid.

Pushing open the door of the VIP room, Lu Ke noticed the figure of Lech-Steinberg at first glance. Obviously, on such an important occasion, Lech as the agent will not be absent, he needs to **** Lu Ke, This also made Lu Ke a little relieved, and then saw Kobe Bryant standing not far away.

To be honest, in the limited space of the VIP room, even deliberately ignoring Kobe is not an easy task.

Kobe's height and physique are among a group of senior management staff, and a large group of old men. They are completely standing tall, and they are easily caught in their eyes. At the first time, they attracted all the eyes of Lu Ke.

Lu Ke couldn't restrain his surprise and consternation, and then he gave up the cover-up action, sincerely and frankly showed his joy and surprise, "Roger, sorry, according to courtesy, I should greet you first, But forgive my rudeness, God, Kobe Bryant? I ca n’t believe my eyes. "

At this moment, Lu Ke, without the ease of the press conference, the calm and domineering on the court, is completely a loyal fan.

However, Roger Goodall laughed ridiculously, "Payton is going to lose this time, and his most loyal fans actually betrayed like this."

Everyone knows that Lu Ke ’s idol is Peyton Manning. He has always aimed at Big Manning and is working tirelessly on the field. He is looking forward to becoming the top quarterback of the league one day; but Few people know that before immigration, Lu Ke was the school ’s basketball team.

Of course, that's just elementary school. For the elementary school basketball team, the significance of physical fitness is greater than competitive sports, and there is no comparison with professional football afterwards; however, the first NBA team Lu Ke touched in China was the Los Angeles Lakers.

In 1996, Bryant entered the league through the draft conference and was then traded to the Los Angeles Lakers; the following year, Lu Ke followed his parents to San Francisco, and shortly after that, he witnessed the Los Angeles Lakers ’first three consecutive championships. dynasty.

For Lu Ke, Big Manning is an idol and a goal, while Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal are young memories. An indelible and irreplaceable memory. Before devoting himself to football, the Los Angeles Lakers were still his favorite basketball team in his youth.

Facing Lu Ke's frank response, Bryant also gave a positive response, saying in an exaggerated tone, "Oh, God, Lu Ke?" But just said three words, and then waved again and again, laughing happily Get up, "Sorry, I can't finish it."

The cheerful and funny look was a bit rusty, even if imitated Lu Ke, it was not enough, but rather a bit cautious, which once caused the scene to be very embarrassing.

But Kobe did not mind. After putting down his hands, he took the initiative to step forward and opened his arms, giving Lu Ke a big hug enthusiastically in the manner of California. Then he extended his right hand and played with street greetings. A little trick of hitting fist

Surprisingly, Lu Ke kept up with it, and was not overwhelmed. The whole movement is very skillful and sophisticated, and it seems that there is no jerky and cautious Asian player.

Bryant widened his eyes and showed an unexpected look. After completing all the actions, he said meaningfully, "I now finally know why the 49 players like you so much."

To truly integrate into the local culture, and open your heart actively, only after accepting the local culture can you communicate your culture to others, and communication should be a two-way process. Not to mention Asian immigrants. In many cases, even white people have limited knowledge of black street culture. This way of punching is like a signal, "I belong to this tribe."

Black and black "tribes" have different punching techniques, and they are also one of the means of identification between them. Kobe just chose the most basic and simple one, not too fancy, but even so, Lu Ke can fully keep up, which is rare.

Therefore, Kobe will sigh.

However, Lu Ke spread his hands and asked, "Isn't it because of my personal charm?"

Bryant squeezed his mouth, puffed up his cheeks, and shook his head again and again, disgustingly and vomitingly said, "Los Angeles is no longer popular with such humor. You need to update your joke notebook quickly."

Lu Ke didn't panic, but frowned deliberately and said disgustingly, "Should something like a joke notebook be burned in the last century?"

Kobe's expression suddenly stiffened, and his words stuck in his throat—

After all, he is not that kind of sharp-eyed player. Occasionally, there are some joke and cold humor from the hands, no harm, then there is no problem; but the real shortcomings come and go, his response is relatively limited. This is true for journalists and friends.

Upon seeing it, Roger Goodell intervened just right. "Thank God, this boring talk show can finally be over." A joke makes the atmosphere laugh, "Leich told me before, your favorite player in childhood was Kobe, I still feel incredible; but now I have to be thankful that David ’s loss is my gain. "

The "David" here should not be surprising, it should be the current president of the NBA, David Stern.

Sure enough, Goodell was completely familiar with such a scene. He drew the topic between the understatements and did not feel a sense of disobedience. He went back and forth between the NBA and NFL topics, and was able to master the initiative. In your palm.

At this time, Lu Ke had the opportunity to notice the others in the VIP box. This was also the first time Lu Ke had really come into contact with the so-called pyramid top authority.

NFL President Roger Goodell, NFL media operations director Petra-Hamilton (Petra-Hamilton), and a group of other names of the league's very long title.

Los Angeles Lakers team manager Mitch Kupchak (Mitch-Kupchak), San Francisco 49ers team manager Trent Bark, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, and some assistants and other related personnel.

The most surprising thing is that senior staff including NBC TV, Fox TV and NFLN official network platform also attended.

In addition, there are representatives of Rolex's spokespersons, four Grammy trophy winners Michael-Buble, one of the most successful skiers in history Lindsey-Vonn, Swiss equestrian venue obstacle race Champion Steve-Guerdat and so on.

There are Hollywood people who seem to have no connection, the most actor Oscar nominated in history, Jack Nicholson, the first ever post-80s Oscar film Natalie Portman (Natalie-Portman), and Several top producers, screenwriters and so on, the name is really too much.

Finally, there are some upstarts, most of them from Silicon Valley. Although Lu Ke did not know why they appeared here, it was clear that Lech was very active in introducing Lu Ke.

Of course, there is Kobe Bryant.

This is a very lively and extremely dignified occasion. Between the entanglement of stratagems, the polite greetings and the greetings from you make me completely immersed in it. Between trance, it seems that I have entered another world, and sports, and A world with a very different society is like Alice in Wonderland.

Under the guidance of Lech, Lu Ke made a large group of people, and just spent a lot of energy just to match the name with the face, and also to remember the title and ability of the other party, to further improve the entire network of trees Picture, this is really too difficult.

The "reporter talent" that once made Lu Ke proud is also facing some challenges today. The huge amount of information is coming, and he has to pay attention to his words and deeds at all times. This is definitely not an easy task.

When I first saw Kobe, Lu Ke was undoubtedly excited. The excitement that the little fan saw the big idol surged in his chest.

But gradually, the mind began to numb. Those figures that can only be seen on TV or movie screens, and those names that can only be seen in news and reports, appear like a ferris wheel in turns. before--

Even if I didn't get used to it at first, I was forced to get used to it after an hour.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the VIP box facing the stadium, overlooking the panoramic view of the entire Staples Stadium, at this time the reporters have all left, only the staff is dismantling the stage of the press conference and tidying up the installation inside the stadium , The lively and noisy scene is gradually settling down.

"Many people don't like such moments. Because after the noise, they become quiet. The huge gap can create a sense of loneliness. In my opinion, this is an illusion of people. An illusion that is unnecessary." Ear A calm and sophisticated voice came from Bian, faintly with some hoarseness, like a fine wine that settled down in time, a bit bitter, but mellow enough.

Turning his head, Lu Ke saw Jerry Jones' wrinkled face.
