For a rare moment, all the reporters' attention fell on the simplest and most basic question. After collectively witnessing this historical moment, curiosity and expectations began to boil, and then all the focus was focused on He fell into Lu Ke's body and became a faithful recorder of history.
Just like after Liu/Xiang won the men's 110-meter hurdles championship at the 2004 Athens Olympics.
The reason why historical moments are precious is that no one has experienced them before, and no one can truly understand the feeling except the person involved. For the first time, a Chinese-American player made history in a sports field that other races are good at. This is incredible and unparalleled.
This was true for Liu Xiang in the past; it is also true for Lu Ke now.
"Wonderful." Lu Ke replied simply and neatly, without humility or euphemism. He was frank and straightforward, and the smile on his face bloomed wantonly. "Believe me, this is an extremely wonderful moment. So, you can ask some questions today. Tricky question, but it still won’t affect my wonderful mood.”
Harry Waynes' question rang out like a shadow, like a tail that couldn't be shaken off, "Lu Ke, how do you feel about defeating Drew Brees? Almost the entire league is optimistic that the Saints can win, but now , you successfully defeated Brees, how do you feel? Even if it is such a problem, you will not be affected?"
The straightforward words and provocative meaning could not be more obvious. They directly put Lu Ke and Brees on opposite sides, sowing discord between the two quarterbacks and even more so between the fans of the two quarterbacks. Relationship, he did not hide his intention to create explosive points, and even showed a proud look.
"I don't think I beat Brees. Today, two excellent teams played a wonderful game. In the end, our performance was better and we became the winning side. That's all." Lu Ke smiled. He met Harry's provocative gaze with a full face and replied calmly, "I am enjoying the joy of victory at the moment. So, yes, Mr. Wayans, you can't affect my mood."
After saying that, Lu Ke deliberately showed a big smile and raised the corners of his mouth exaggeratedly, expressing that his mood was still as bright as the bright sunshine in midsummer and was not affected at all, responding positively to Harry's provocation. An answer that was neither humble nor arrogant, but a crisp and clear answer, a light but powerful counterattack.
"Lu Ke, do you realize that you are making history?"
Another reporter's question immediately interrupted the topic, and Harry's sharpness and sharpness all fell on him, as if he had broken his teeth and swallowed them in his stomach.
"No. I don't know." Lu Ke exhaled heavily, as if he was unloading a heavy burden from his shoulders, "Winning is the most important thing, because it is what our entire team unites to work hard to achieve. The results. Those historical numbers are just additional gains, so, I don’t know, I don’t care, now I just want to celebrate with my teammates.”
The historical record is the glory of the individual, while the victory or defeat of the game is the glory of the team. At any time, victory is better than records, at least in Lu Ke's opinion.
In the crowd, another reporter raised his voice and asked, "Bambi, can you talk about that touchdown run?"
A seemingly simple question, but Lu Ke suddenly got stuck. He blinked his eyes, his head full of question marks, and said "Running ball touchdown? Does it have anything to do with me? Are you sure you are asking about me?" Did I run the ball today?" His expression no longer had the usual sharpness and wisdom, but showed another childish and jerky look.
Jay quickly raised his voice to remind him and briefly described the 29-yard touchdown run.
Lu Ke then showed an expression of sudden realization and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I thought you would ask about the last pass that found Logan, so all other touchdowns were selectively forgotten." That one " The embarrassment of "memory lapse" really makes people laugh.
Then Lu Ke shook his head, not even enough, and waved his hands together, expressing a double negative, "I think I should increase the practice of running with the ball. God, this is the daily practice I hate the most." He started the self-complaint mode without mercy, "But in order to avoid today's embarrassment, I should work hard during the offseason."
Originally, the reporters wanted to ask why Lu Ke chose to run the ball in the offense, to ask about Lu Ke's thoughts on running the ball for a touchdown, or to ask about Lu Ke's thoughts on making history by completing a running ball touchdown in the divisional round. But now that Lu Ke was joking like this, everyone smiled, the atmosphere of the interview became relaxed and happy, and the focus became blurred.
The next questions became trivial, about "that pass 3", about the performance of the offensive line, about the ups and downs in the last four minutes, about the successful activation of the double tight end tactic tonight... questions about the details of the game came one after another. One, there are so many things worth paying attention to about this game. Once you open the box of questions, you can’t stop at all.
After continuing on and off for a long time, Harry Wayans finally found a good opportunity again and raised a long-planned question. Of course, it is also a question that other reporters like to hear:
"Lu Ke, what are your expectations for the opponents in the next game? Which team are you looking forward to meeting more?"
The New York Giants face the Green Bay Packers. There are countless off-field highlights in this divisional match.
Based on paper strength, the Packers are undoubtedly the number one favorite to win this year's Super Bowl; but facing the talented Giants, no one can predict how things will develop. This was the case in the last wild card game, Atlanta The Falcons suffered an unbelievable defeat, and the Giants were in a hot game, but what about this one?
For the 49ers, these two opponents obviously have completely different meanings.
The Giants had faced each other once during the regular season. The two teams joined forces to create a classic showdown. In the end, the 49ers relied on repeated zero-second offenses to narrowly defeat their opponents at home. If they meet again and fight at Candlestick Stadium again, the 49ers will undoubtedly be a strong contender for a Super Bowl seat.
The Packers are an absolutely powerful team that ranks first in offense and first in wins during the regular season. After the Saints, the 49ers will once again face an offensive battle, and this time Lu Ke will face a younger and more powerful team. With the more flexible Aaron Rodgers, the outcome of this duel between the new generation and the mesozoic generation will be difficult to predict, but obviously, the Packers will be the favored side.
So, from Lu Ke's perspective, which team does he prefer to win?
Undoubtedly, this is an issue that all reporters are concerned about; at the same time, this is also an issue that Giants and Packers fans are concerned about. No matter which team Lu Ke chooses, this is a trap. Harry will never give up being aggressive. Attack opportunities, and Lu Ke's "prediction" is bound to become the focus of fans' attention. It is conceivable that a war of words is already on the way.
"So, is the happy time over like this?" Lu Ke asked easily, avoiding the focus of the topic in a few seconds, "I thought that we are enjoying the wonderful moment of this victory now, and the next game will be The extremely distant future should not appear in today's focus." Then, Lu Ke shook his head sadly, "Are the happy times now so short?"
Happy hour can also be used to describe the afternoon time set up by bars or restaurants specifically to promote consumption. Drinks will be cheaper and attract more customers.
Lu Ke's answer was pun-intended, and his witty and clever answer made Harry's trap fail; but obviously, the reporters refused to let Lu Ke escape so easily, not only Harry, but other reporters as well. Someone immediately He asked, "So for you, which team do you want to win?"
"I have never thought about this problem. Just a few hours ago, we might have lost this game and bid farewell to this year's playoff journey. The same is true now. No matter which opponent we face in the next game, we are still the same. Only by going all out can the underdog win a glimmer of hope of victory."
Lu Ke still had a bright smile on his face, but all the sharpness and sharpness suddenly shrank away, once again showing a humble and well-behaved side, cleverly avoiding all the important points, just like a master minesweeper. , the steps are light and the rhythm is accurate, and then you can see the reporters are ready to move, ready to launch further aggressive attacks at any time.
But this time, Lu Ke left no chance.
"For you, the happy time is over; but for us, the happy time has just begun. Now, I am ready to join my teammates and enjoy it to the fullest. I will leave the interview for another time."
Lu Ke spoke first, once again making a pun, but the simple words seemed to have profound meaning. Then Lu Ke did not stop, turned around, and quickly left the interview area. Now the reporters were all panicked: their joy Time was cut off like this?
"Bambi, you can't do this! You have the obligation to accept interviews!" Harry shouted hoarsely, trying to stop Lu Ke's footsteps, "According to the official regulations of the alliance, you must accept an interview for at least twenty minutes! Banbi! Compare!"
Lu Ke turned around, tapped the wrist of his left hand with the fingers of his right hand, made a gesture with a bright smile, then turned around again and walked away. Then, the reporters realized that the official interview time had already passed, and there was no problem with Lu Ke's departure.
Seeing that Lu Ke was about to turn around and leave again, Jay stepped forward suddenly and shouted eagerly, "Bambi, can you accept an exclusive interview tonight? Or tomorrow."
"Of course. Give me a call." Lu Ke replied simply.
The next second, Jay realized that sharp eyes were falling on him.
