Standing at the door of the VIP room, Sophie knocked politely, then she turned around, her bright eyes flashing with a faint smile, and she looked back with a charming smile, "Good luck, Mr. Bambi."
This was Lu Ke's first time coming to the VIP room on the top floor. He had no way of judging the route. One second, he and Sophie were still talking, and the next second, the VIP room was already in front of him. Lu Ke's attention shifted to the door of the VIP room, and his reaction speed was slightly slower than half a beat, and he did not have time to respond to Sophie immediately.
When she thought about it carefully, the door to the VIP room was already open, and Sophie turned to leave. She only had time to catch a slight smile at the corner of her mouth and a sweet scent on her nose. The next moment, a security guard in a black suit appeared. Standing in front of Lu Ke, he made an invitation gesture, "Please."
Lu Ke calmed down a little, looked away, and walked into the VIP room.
The VIP room decorated in bright red and sapphire blue presents a retro European style, with occasional touches of gold, which highlights the grandeur. The soft velvet sofa, tall oak bar, dazzling liquor cabinets, authentic famous paintings on display, Green and tender potted plants... bursting with vitality everywhere, and there is a huge billiard table on the right.
However, with just a quick glance, you can see an entire glass wall directly in front of you. The scarlet curtains on both sides are opened, giving you a panoramic view of the entire stadium. A strong visual impact is surging violently in front of you. A picture of a fierce competition suddenly emerged.
"Look, this is our protagonist. He has dominated the Candlestick Stadium in the past two weeks. Welcome, warm welcome." The warm greeting attracted Lu Ke's attention, and then he saw a figure coming towards him. He opened his arms in a friendly manner, made a hugging gesture, and hugged Lu Ke firmly.
Then, he took two steps back, looked Lu Ke up and down, and gently retracted his chin, "You are taller and stronger than I thought." He turned his head and looked at Jim standing next to him - Hubble, "Why is everyone saying that his figure is too thin? Is it because I am too layman?"
Full of curiosity and energy.
Lu Ke opened his arms and welcomed the gaze calmly, "Similarly, you are younger than I thought. I hope I am not biased." Responding to humor with humor and curiosity with curiosity, Lu Ke showed a The essential qualities of a good reporter are neither humble nor overbearing, neither panic nor chaos.
"I am indeed too young to own a team; but you are good enough to lead the team to two victories." The way of communication between young people is indeed different.
Standing in front of Lu Ke were not the Yorks, but their son, Jed-York, who was only thirty-one years old this year. Three years ago, the Yorks officially appointed Jed as the team's president, and he is now responsible for the team's daily affairs, including dealing with the media, watching games every week, etc.
"With just two wins, isn't it too easy for the team to be satisfied?" Lu Ke responded with a smile.
Jed turned to look at Jim and said with a chuckle, "The ambition of this rookie player is no small matter. You know, we should only have won six games last year; and we lost five games in a row at the beginning of the season." Then, Jed De shrugged, "But, I like it." He looked at Lu Ke and Jim again, his eyes shifting back and forth, "So, can we look forward to the next game?"
Jim said confidently, "First, we need to do our job. This is the first step."
The calmness of knowing victory successfully made Jade smile.
The meeting ended quickly, lasting less than five minutes.
Jade didn't look at Lu Ke with special eyes or favor him, he was just a little curious:
A Chinese-American quarterback, an undrafted rookie, people can say it is luck, it can be said to be a fluke, it can also be said to be a surprise victory, but the fact is that he has led the team to two consecutive victories; and it was also in the pre-season. This is even more valuable when all four games are in vain.
After their curiosity was satisfied, Lu Ke and Jim left the VIP room without staying any longer; in fact, not only Jed York, but the entire league—the entire league in the true sense, all eyes were focused on San Francisco. The 49ers all focused on Lu Ke.
The 2010 season ended with only six wins and ten losses. It was hard to win in the 2011 preseason. The offseason experienced turmoil and reshuffle of the entire team. During the preparation process, it faced the challenge of injuries, and the undrafted rookie quarterback was called upon. Rushing into battle... Who would have thought that after the start of the season, the San Francisco 49ers would win two consecutive games, and only seven teams in the entire league would remain undefeated.
It's all really incredible.
What's even more commendable is that the rookie quarterback gave an amazing performance for the second consecutive week. Whether it was the choice to run the ball in a critical situation or the reappearance of "that catch", he truly handed over the ball. Got an excellent answer. Unconsciously, the alliance's sights and opinions quietly began to change.
In competitive sports, the difference between victory and defeat is always extremely obvious.
After the game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Dallas Cowboys, another wave of news and controversy swept over! The discussion and heated discussion brought about by "that catch" has become the focus of attention with great momentum!
The controversial, high-profile, and questioned Chinese quarterback Lu Ke had some ups and downs this week, but he still led the team to victory for the second consecutive week!
21 of 31 passes, 256 yards, three touchdowns, one interception, one sack, and quarterback rating of 1.4.
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant! For the second consecutive week, Lu Ke's quarterback rating and PFF rating both showed a gratifying trend, once again showing the potential of an excellent quarterback, which is eye-catching.
No one should forget that this same team only scored one passing touchdown in the four preseason games, but in the two weeks of regular season games, Lu Ke had already passed eight passes. touchdown ball.
No one should forget that at the critical moment of the fourth week of the preseason, Lu Ke was forced to go into battle. Before the regular season, the new starting quarterback only had ten days of running-in time with the team, but now he has already reaped the rewards. Two consecutive wins.
No one should forget that in two games, the San Francisco 49ers passed the ball for 619 yards and ran the ball for only 112 yards. The team relied entirely on the passing attack to win the game.
As the team's starting quarterback, Lu Ke undoubtedly became the main contributor!
Faced with such outstanding performance data, Fox TV commentator Kirk Charleston said, "This Chinese-American quarterback reminds me of Big Ben."
"Big Ben" is the nickname of Ben Roethlisberger of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Like Eli Manning and Philip Rivers, he participated in the 2004 draft and entered the league. This event was the most important quarterback year in ten years. The top pick in the draft was Eli, the youngest son of the Manning family, while Ben was selected with the 11th pick in the first round.
In his rookie season, Ben adapted to the atmosphere of the league as the third quarterback. However, during the preseason, the injury to the second quarterback made him the team's second quarterback; in the second week of the regular season, the starting four The unexpected injury to the shooting guard further advanced Ben's league debut and forced him to assume the starting quarterback position.
Big Ben's first game was a nightmare. He scored two touchdowns but also sent two interceptions. The Pittsburgh Steelers lost to the Baltimore Ravens by a large score; but after that, with the best performance in the league that year, With the cover of the defensive team, Ben began his journey to set records.
He achieved 13 consecutive victories, creating the best record in the history of the league's rookies; in the eighth week of the season, he led the team to defeat the defending champion New England Patriots, ending the opponent's 21-game winning streak in history; his In his rookie season, he achieved a pass completion rate of 66.4% and a quarterback rating of 98.1, both breaking the NFL's historical record set by Miami Dolphins Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino in 1983, and unanimously. Was elected the best offensive rookie that season.
Subsequently, in the 2005 season, he stumbledly led the team to the Super Bowl and won his first championship ring, surpassing Tom Brady and becoming the youngest Super Bowl champion starting quarterback in the history of the league; in the 2008 season, he entered the Super Bowl again. In the Super Bowl, he faced the Arizona Cardinals led by Kurt Warner, the "league's Cinderella". The two teams played the most exciting Super Bowl in history. In the end, he received his second championship ring.
In summary, Ben currently holds most of the records for rookie quarterbacks and is also the most successful among the new generation of quarterbacks. Eli Manning, the No. 1 pick in the draft in the same year, won a Super Bowl championship ring, but his insane performance was destined to miss him out on the quarterback passing record.
Now, Kirk compares Lu Ke to Da Ben. Obviously not because of Ben's strong body of 241 pounds (109 kilograms), but because of Ben's superb passing skills; and also because of Lu Ke's keen sense of smell and victory intuition shown in the game.
This time, opposition was at least halved; support began to emerge.
"Can Lu Ke break Ben's rookie season quarterback records? This is still a question mark! The season is still long. But what is certain is that this rookie quarterback has achieved great success through two consecutive outstanding performances. It proves that he is not just a transitional quarterback. His superb passing skills, excellent reading ability, excellent critical judgment, and a brave heart that never gives up all give him the qualifications to become a quarterback. Potential for a great quarterback!”
Comments from "San Francisco Chronicle" football commentator Brian Westbrook also represent the mainstream view of the league. Many professional commentators and commentators have also expressed similar views. The season is long and the games are very long. Bitter, but at least Lu Ke proved that he is not a transitional quarterback.
