Opening his equipment bag, he rummaged through the side pocket and found a pair of golden wristbands. He picked out one of them and put it on his left wrist. This is the "golden equipment" that belongs to Lu Ke today.
After Lu Ke completed communication with Laihe and formally determined the support activities, Laihe contacted and discussed with Under Armor, and worked intensively to make ten pairs of golden wristbands for Lu Ke.
On the one hand, the league has strict regulations on home and away jerseys. Colors cannot be changed or added at will. The gold color among the official jerseys of the San Francisco 49ers was chosen. This is also the result of careful consideration; on the other hand, the confrontation in rugby is very fierce and cannot be Adding equipment at will, wrist guards are undoubtedly the most compact and lightest choice.
Faced with such an unexpected situation, Under Armor showed full cooperation and proactively tailored a special golden wristband for Lu Ke. Within a limited time, it did its best to ensure that Lu Ke's charity activities could proceed smoothly. .
After returning home from the training session yesterday, there were ten pairs of golden wristbands neatly placed on the table in the living room.
In normal training and games, Lu Ke does not have the habit of wearing wrist guards to avoid affecting the progress of the game, so Lu Ke only wears a left wrist guard, and his right hand still maintains the habitual lightness when passing the ball.
This game is not only a fight for victory and a fight for the second half of the season, but also a fight for Ryan!
Beyond this event, there was also an off-field episode.
After Lu Ke officially published a long article on social networks, a group of "scammers" and "trolls" appeared on the Internet. They believed that this charity event was completely a cover, and was actually an official arrangement by Rolex. After the official signing of the contract, charity was used as the starting point for the promotional activities to further enhance the off-site influence of this cooperation.
The so-called gold color is exactly the traditional gold color of Rolex.
But these negative remarks were quickly sprayed back by the fanatical nine people:
Ryan Baldwin is a real fan, and everything can truly be traced to time stamps and development trajectories; and the relationship between Lu Ke and Ryan started a year ago, and everything is There are traces to follow. Only those trolls with dark psyches would think that this is all an elaborate scam.
Jonathan Baldwin went all out on Twitter and cursed those trolls, releasing all the depression and frustration he had felt recently.
The so-called "many people are famous and right" can only be blamed on Lu Ke who has been so popular recently, and almost no one in the entire league can match him.
Whether it is veterans in outstanding form or rising rookies, no one can compare with Lu Ke. Even Matt Ryan, who has been extremely brave this season, has been under the strong impact of Rolex’s signing news in the past week. Slightly inferior. It is precisely because of this that the eyes of envy, jealousy and hatred gradually increase.
However, such negative news failed to win much market. It only boiled for a short while and then gradually calmed down.
On the contrary, after Rolex officials unexpectedly learned of this situation, they showed great appreciation and support for Lu Ke's charity. They immediately forwarded Lu Ke's post through social network platforms and expressed their affirmation from an official position.
First it was Under Armor, and then Rolex. Both sponsors showed full sincerity in cooperation and wholeheartedly supported Lu Ke’s ideas and actions. This is a very rare sight. After all, each brand has more than one sponsor spokesperson. It is impossible for them to focus all their energy and resources on one person; the friendly relationship between Lu Ke and the two sponsors can also be seen from the side.
After putting on his equipment, Lu Ke stood up straight and looked around the locker room, but hesitated to speak.
Before formally conceiving the long article, Lu Ke's idea was very simple. This was the agreement between him and Ryan. It is enough for him to wear gold or other colored accessories and complete the game with Ryan's dreams and expectations on his back.
But Laihe rejected Lu Ke's idea.
This should not be between one player and one fan, but between the entire team and all the fans.
For the San Francisco 49ers, they hope that they can have a closer relationship with their fans; and for the fans, they hope that they can be a complete whole and encourage each other with the team. In other words, this is a matter between Ryan and the team and Ryan as a fan, rather than a private agreement between Lu Ke and Ryan.
What's more, for Ryan, this is a battle destined to end. He needs more energy and more support. At this moment, there is strength in numbers, and the team and fans should unite closely. , worked together to reawaken Ryan's high morale, and also reawakened the close connection between all nine people.
Only then did Lu Ke realize that his thinking was not thorough enough. As a team leader, he still has a lot to learn and accumulate slowly. Fortunately, he still has enough time.
So, Lu Ke first communicated face-to-face with Jim Hubble and Trent Baalke and asked for the team's official opinion. Hubble had a dispensable attitude, but Trent seemed a little worried. He didn't I don’t want to say anything more. I just want Lu Ke to post the long article first and see the reaction of the Internet before making further decisions.
Later, after the training session, Lu Ke specially summoned all the teammates of the entire team to perform his duties as captain outside the court for the first time, telling Ryan's story and his thoughts, and Expressed his expectations: I hope the team can unite and join in this event.
However, the reaction of the players was not so positive, and they seemed slightly disinterested. The name "Ryan Baldwin" was still relatively unfamiliar to them.
Despite this, everyone still expressed their "definitely support", but their lazy attitude made Lu Ke hesitate.
Lu Ke knows that Asian culture is more inclined to collective action, and everything is arranged and then executed uniformly. For example, it is common for Japanese tour groups to dress uniformly and appear in famous European attractions; but European and American culture is more inclined to independent individuals. Respect individuals and themselves, even when participating in group activities, they will try to maintain their individuality as much as possible.
Therefore, after issuing the call, Lu Ke remained silent and did not urge too much.
Today is the match day, but Lu Ke didn't notice the change in the atmosphere within the team at all. Before going on the field, it was still calm, which made Lu Ke feel a little less confident deep down.
"Bambi, what's wrong?" Aldon, who had just passed by Lu Ke's eyes, asked curiously as if he noticed Lu Ke's eyes.
Lu Ke's words stopped at his lips, he was nervous and uneasy. Even during the game, he had never been so concerned about gains and losses.
One second. Two seconds.
In the end, Logan's impatience couldn't hold it back, "Bambi, tell me, tell me what you think." Then he saw the surprised expression on Lu Ke's face, and Logan shook his head helplessly, "Idiot, you are I have never been so hesitant on the court or training ground. Why are you hesitating all of a sudden? This is not like you! This is not you!"
Aldon even jumped up high, "Guys! Show it to our quarterback!"
In an instant, the entire locker room became bustling, and everyone began to wave the golden accessories in their hands, such as golden shoelaces, golden ribbons, golden gloves, golden socks... and so on, waving and shouting. , the scene of howling ghosts and howling wolves was really too lively, rushing towards us with great vigor.
There were even golden balloons popping up from nowhere.
Lu Ke opened his mouth slightly and looked at the scene in front of him with dumbfounded eyes. Unprecedentedly, he felt deeply that he was integrated with the team. He was not just a member of the offensive team, nor just a member of the offensive team. Captain, all of them stand side by side for the same goal and the same dream, becoming each other's staunchest and strongest support.
This fighting friendship between men is unbreakable!
Aldon even opened Lu Ke's equipment bag and took out the remaining wristbands inside, "Guys, guys! None of our equipment looks as good as Bambi's. If anyone wants to wear Under Armor, Special golden wristbands, hurry up and get them now, there are still nineteen places here, nineteen!"
The shouting like a hawker made Lu Ke laugh happily.
Logan rushed over, hugged Lu Ke's neck, and shouted loudly, "Bambi, you should greet us dignifiedly: Guys! I need you to wear gold accessories during this week's game. ;I need you all to come together and show Ryan Baldwin our support; I need you to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Nine and show our cohesion as a team!"
"Bambi, you are our quarterback, and you are also our leader. You should stand up more boldly, and you should show your presence more actively. Believe me, you deserve all of this!" Logan ravaged Lu Ke's cheeks hard and shouted excitedly, "Do you know now? Ah? You need to be stronger and tougher! This is your team!"
From Randy Moss to Michael Crabtree, from the second team offensive team to Ryan Baldwin, Lu Ke is working hard to learn the only way to grow into a leader in his sophomore season, not only in On and off the court, he needs to shoulder more responsibilities in order to be worthy of the title of "leader."
Originally, this was supposed to be an event for Ryan, but it unexpectedly brought the San Francisco 49ers together:
This should be the first time in the history of the team that all players collectively united to deliberately tease the starting quarterback, and the prank was a great success.
