Ne-York, the world's largest capital.

In the middle of the 17th century, after the end of the Anglo-Dutch War, the Netherlands were defeated and forced to cede New Amsterdam on the east coast of the North American continent to the British, which happened to be the birthday of Charles II's younger brother, the Duke of York. Thus, there is what is now New York.

At the beginning of the 20th century, when Europe was in search of the United States, and the rest of North America was looking for new business opportunities at the most prosperous coast of the East Coast, New York was a new world for immigrants, so it was nicknamed the "Big Apple", which means "so good and delicious that everyone wants to take a bite".

Today, New York is one of the most important and prosperous cities in the world. Even within the world, the status is irreplaceable.

The city is bustling and bustling with people and traffic all year round, and the towering steel forest neatly divides the city into a checkerboard grid, and only in the area near the Statue of Liberty can you still capture the once chaotic streets and alleys of the European style, revealing the city's past history.

The raging wind of the estuary raged through the rows of high-rise buildings, and the sparse golden sunlight seemed to be unable to penetrate the tight blockade, and projected feebly on the blue-gray pavement, and the whistling wind hunted at any time of the year, adding a touch of gloom to this cold and detached corner, and the crowd of people always habitually pulling together their trench coats, creating a barrier between themselves and strangers.

Just looking through the car window, the busy figures on the street can deeply feel the difference between the east and west coasts. It's not Los Angeles, it's not San Francisco, it's New York. Even for immigrants like Lu Ke, they can deeply feel the "East-West dispute" that belongs to the United States.

This is Lu Ke's second visit to New York this year.

The last time was in the fourth week of the season, away to the New York Jets, but because Mets Stadium is not in New York City, but in New Jersey, they simply don't have a chance to get into the city and have a good stroll around.

This time it seemed to be the same, sitting in the four-door car that came to pick up the airport and peeking at the glimpse of the city, and then quickly disappeared into one of the countless skyscrapers, as if swallowed by the city.

Suddenly, Lu Ke didn't even have time to take a good look at the exterior of the building, the car had already entered the underground parking lot directly, and all the scenery in his sight escaped into a cold gray cement wall, until he took the elevator to the destination, and then realized that this was a hotel.

Seriously recall, just at the entrance of the parking lot, the eyes seemed to catch a glimpse of the words "Hilton Hotel". It's just that because he didn't expect the sudden turn of the car at all, Lu Ke didn't see it clearly, so he couldn't be 100% sure.

Push open the door of the hotel room and you can see Lech Steinberg sitting at his desk.

At this time, Lech was enjoying a leisurely cup of afternoon tea, the aroma was in the air, a piece of Black Forest cake and a glass of milk were placed on the coffee table, and a copy of Nobel Prize winner Harold-Pinter's "birthday party" was being held in his hand.

Lu Ke immediately realized that things were not in a hurry for the time being—at least not for a while. So, Lu Ke sat down opposite Lehe, let out a long breath, and pointed to the milk on the table, "Can I drink it?" "It's not about asking for permission, it's about asking if there may be a ban/drug involved, and professional athletes have to be careful at all times.

Sure enough, Lech immediately understood and shook his head, "This is provided by the hotel, and it may not be very reliable." You should drink bottled water. ”

Then he gestured to Vincent, who was following him, and Lech put down the book and folded his hands on his knees, "Sorry, I couldn't watch the game at Gillette Stadium today." To be honest, it's my regret that I couldn't watch such a wonderful game. I would most like to see the panic on Bill's face. ”

Bill? Bill Bilicek? Unexpectedly, they were actually friends! But...... This doesn't seem unusual.

"I thought you were trying to avoid suspicion." Lu Ke teased with a smile.

Lech was slightly stunned, and then reacted, "You know? ”

Recently, there have been unreliable rumors in the league that Brady is now in the second half of his career, and Bilicek has been struggling to find a replacement for Brady.

The reason why it is unreliable is not because of the news itself - the New England Patriots have indeed been looking for a suitable young backup quarterback, just as Aaron Rodgers did when he succeeded Brett Favre, preparing for the vacancy after Brady's form decline, after all, Brady is also 35 years old this year.

It's because those who really know Bilicek know that he doesn't believe in a quarterback with great individual ability, and he prefers a quarterback that fits his system. The Patriots haven't picked a quarterback before six rounds since Brady. Lu Ke clearly does not fit into Bilicek's tactical system.

There is absolutely no basis for such information. It's not so much a true rumor, but a deliberate person who is deliberately killing Lu Ke and confusing the morale of the 49 people in San Francisco. Regardless, this offseason, Lu Ke's contract extension will be the focus of attention, and it is already possible to see competitors starting to mess with it.

The reason why Lehe didn't tell Lu Ke was because he didn't take it to heart at all, and he had already dealt with it; I didn't expect the rumors to leak between the players.

"He can't afford to give me the contract I want." The understatement reveals Lech's strong self-confidence, as he seeks a top-tier contract that breaks history, not a bench spot.

Lu Ke smiled dumbly.

Lech didn't go into too much nonsense and went straight to the point, "The reason why I'm here in New York today is because there are people here who need me to watch the game. ”

Without waiting for Lu Ke to think carefully, Lech immediately threw out a blockbuster, "The new sponsor has basically been negotiated, we have a small party, and then they also want to be able to watch your game live and see your performance with their own eyes." A group of cunning old foxes, specially selected for this game. ”

Against the New England Patriots, this game was an absolute test for Lu Ke. Even the laymen know that Bilicek and the New England Patriots are tough, and the important matchup between Lu Ke and Brady is the focus of the hype around the league. So, the sponsors specifically selected this competition -

It's not the ultimate test.

And for Lu Ke, the more surprising part is: There are sponsors again? The Rolex endorsement was only two months ago.

But Lech said it lightly, and it didn't seem to be a big deal; Lu Ke's surprise was not too turbulent, "What if this game is lost?" He asked, curiously.

Lech shrugged slightly, "It's not a big deal, how can competitive sports never lose?" What they need to look at is your style of play, especially in difficult situations. Of course, it would be better if we could win. ”

Judging from the process and results of the game, Lu Ke's performance is really eye-catching. Even before today, there were countless rumors about Lu Ke inside and outside the alliance, which greatly raised expectations, but the fact was still expecting more.

For Lech, Lu Ke's competitive temperament is already a daily routine; But for sponsors, it is still a rare and important plus point.

What Lech didn't say was that before this game, the contract negotiations had been basically negotiated, and there was no more room for either side to move forward or backward, only the last step was to nod and agree. Sponsors still haven't relented.

But after the game, he officially agreed verbally at the party, and in less than two hours after that, the lawyers of both sides looked at the details of the contract, and now only Lu Ke's signature remains.

Obviously, this game really satisfied the opponent.

This is also the reason why Lech is in a happy mood, and now looking back, he chose Lu Ke at the beginning, and it was indeed his wisdom like a torch. Lech consciously did not tell Lu Ke these details, not because he was worried that Lu Ke would not be able to withstand the pressure and play abnormally; It's because all Lu Ke's attention is focused on the game, and off-field affairs are handled by Lech as much as possible, and Lu Ke doesn't need to be distracted.

After a blink to the story, Lech continued, "The contract is now almost negotiated. Now it's just waiting for you to sign it, and that's it. Tomorrow, you'll need to find time to shoot a short commercial that they'll need to post-produce and edit to see if they can air it during the Super Bowl. ”

Heavy news was thrown out one after another-

Super Bowl ad time, which is a $4 million position in 30 seconds, is still the top of the top in the world, and no one can match it; What's even more exaggerated is that despite the high price, it is still in short supply, and all major advertisers have grabbed the head, covering all fields, from physical goods to movie trailers, which can really be described as a lot of money.

Now, the sponsor signed by Lech for Lu Ke is actually qualified to compete for Super Bowl advertising seats? Does this mean that the weight class is not inferior to Rolex?

This is not unusual. Lech mentioned before that there are really a lot of manufacturers who are willing to cooperate with Lu Ke now, and he has been carefully screening, so what stands out now is bound to be the result of layers of selection, and it is inevitable that Lu Ke is also looking forward to it.
