"Lu Ke, do you think Colin Kaepernick should be held responsible for the team's past three losses?"
The atmosphere at the press conference, which was full of laughter and fun, suddenly froze. Harry did not conceal his provocative meaning in his words, and straight away took off his mask, revealing his fangs and claws. He waved towards Lu Ke, who had just returned from injury.
The pause was only for a moment, and then all the reporters' eyes were directed towards Lu Ke, expecting and curious about Lu Ke's answer. The sparks that were about to break out had begun to fill the air, and the air at the scene was tense. Get up and the fire of Bagua begins to burn brightly.
"No, I don't think so." Lu Ke didn't hesitate at all. He gave the answer crisply before his eyes were cast on him.
Such a frank, direct and decisive way of answering made all Harry's calculations fail - not even leaving too much room for sophistry and nonsense; but if Harry said it far-fetchedly, Lu Ke was guilty of thievery and asked questions quickly. How to answer to cover up your guilty conscience?
Lu Ke seemed to have anticipated such a possibility, leaving no room for interjection. He then added, "Victory is a victory for the team. Similarly, a loss is also a loss for the team. This is a matter for the entire team."
At this time, Harry was fully focused and his eyes were fixed on Lu Ke. He was fully alert and officially entered the debate stage. No matter what Lu Ke said, he was already ready for the follow-up. He didn't care that other reporters were waiting to ask questions. Then he continued to respond, "You mean, the failure is the entire team's responsibility?"
That aggressive posture did not hide the follow-up trap in the words: if Lu Ke nodded yes, then the next step would be to sow discord between Lu Ke and the entire team.
Lu Ke did not fall into the dilemma of struggling or hesitating at all, and nodded calmly in affirmation, "Yes." Sacrificing a Kaepernick is a very simple matter, not to mention that there is a competitive relationship between Lu Ke and Kaepernick. , but Lu Ke did not think this was a necessary choice, "The reason for losing the game is that our performance was not good enough to win the game. We need to study the game video and find a way to solve the problem. Fortunately, we found it .”
As a unit, they shared the glory of a perfect season and now share the bitterness of three consecutive losses. After experiencing the intensified conflicts between the offensive team and the defensive team last season, Lu Ke has matured and knows clearly how to deal with locker room issues.
Lu Ke's answer left no room for Harry to criticize.
But Harry persisted, "But what if Kaepernick thinks he is more suitable for the starting position?"
Lu Ke can denounce this as nonsense, because Kaepernick has never said this in any public forum, but this is tantamount to avoiding the issue, and Harry will definitely not give up.
So, Lu Ke smiled at Harry, but it was just an upward curve at the corner of his mouth. There was no smile at all in his eyes, not even a trace of warmth. There was a sharp, bloody look all over his body. The attitude once again took the initiative in the atmosphere of the game, "Every player hopes to become the starter. On this point, Colin and I are consistent, so we show our strength level through training and hope that we can become The guy who leads the guys.”
It acknowledged the existence of competition, but emphasized the importance of strength.
"I wouldn't have stood on the court if I wasn't well prepared. Fortunately, we won this game and lived up to the expectations of the coaching staff." Lu Ke looked at Harry with burning eyes and seemed to smile. He said without a smile, "Otherwise, Colin and I should be having a Colosseum match in the locker room now."
Even in the process of fighting back head-on, Lu Ke still did not lose his sense of humor. His ability to control the atmosphere with ease, ease, and laughter easily surpassed Harry, which once again made people feel Lu Ke’s growth. Who could have imagined that an injury setback would make Lu Ke stronger?
Then, Lu Ke did not give Harry a chance to continue to mess around, and then continued, "Please tell me, this is my illusion. I think Mr. Waynes is very, very dissatisfied with our victory in the game today. He is always worried about it." Attacking our team like we didn't deserve the win."
Fight back!
Lu Ke's words were not as tense and anxious as Harry's. The faint smile in his words showed his ease, which was in sharp contrast to Harry's urgent, nervous and irritable attack state.
"Or is it that when I missed the game due to injury, Mr. Waynes suddenly became a die-hard fan of the Houston Texans?" Lu Ke counterattacked forcefully, and had no intention of swallowing his anger. , burst out with a powerful momentum, suppressing Harry forcefully.
But it passed in a flash, and then the smile appeared again, and the tone became relaxed again, "If this is the case, after today's press conference, I must call JJ to talk about it."
The atmosphere at the scene was instantly lifted, and the reporters chuckled lowly again.
Harry is the only exception.
Total disadvantage!
Harry had carefully prepared the question, but he completely missed the target. Not to mention seeing Lu Ke in a state of embarrassment, he also watched helplessly as Lu Ke completed the counterattack with just a few gestures, and the follow-up questions were immediately answered. break. Now, Harry was bathed in the sharp gazes of the audience, with a light on his back, and the feeling of suffocation was really indescribable.
Facing Lu Ke's counterattack, Harry was immediately in a dilemma: How should he respond? If he didn't respond, it would be too cowardly; but if he responded, what else could he say, "This is your misunderstanding. I was just fulfilling the duties of a reporter and expressing some fans' concerns about the issues in the team's locker room."
Even so, Harry's aggressive aura finally gave in.
"Then I'm relieved. Thank you for your concern!" Lu Ke showed a big smile towards Harry, seeming to express his gratitude sincerely, as if the tit-for-tat confrontation just now had never happened before.
Such a response made Harry feel even more uncomfortable than a frontal attack. The ridicule and ridicule hidden in the words were sharp and harsh, but there was a bitterness to them, like a mute eating coptis, feeling aggrieved and angry.
Not only Harry, but also other reporters present could feel that Lu Ke, who had returned from injury, was becoming more and more difficult to mess with.
In the past, Lu Ke might not have fought back head-on, but would have responded in a sarcastic way, and then used his usual cold humor to adjust the atmosphere; but now, Lu Ke is calmer, more low-key, but also more powerful and sharper , the powerful aura in every gesture is undergoing transformation, as if... like a true top star.
The edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold.
Injuries are a problem that every professional player must face. Some injuries may completely destroy a career. Similarly, some players may be completely defeated by an injury. The physical pain is certainly a test, but the mental tempering But it is a bigger challenge. Some may never recover, while others may emerge stronger.
At this moment, Lu Ke standing in front of him seemed to be the latter!
For every reporter, they are very happy to see Harry or other colleagues being embarrassed, as long as it is not themselves, and the news breaking points are readily available; but at this time, the atmosphere at the scene was vaguely wrong, so that they could not tell: Should they welcome back an upgraded version of Lu Ke? But...even if they don't welcome it, what else can be done?
Now that I think about it carefully, Marshawn Lynch's stubbornness seems to be nothing.
However, Lu Ke did not notice the surging thoughts of the reporters at the scene. He withdrew his gaze from Harry, and then slowly and slowly scanned the whole place, deliberately letting the silence slowly spread throughout the room, and a wave of silence spread slowly throughout the room. Invisible pressure is pressing heavily on everyone's chest, getting heavier and heavier, becoming more and more stuffy, almost out of breath.
Just when he was about to suffocate, Lu Ke showed a smile, as if the sweeping glance just now had no deep meaning at all. Sunshine's smile still looked harmless, "Okay, next question, and Problem?"
The atmosphere at the scene fell into a rigid rut, and there was strangely no sound from the audience. This is not normal, very, very abnormal. Sophie standing next to her showed a puzzled look - because she was standing on the side stage, not in front of the stage, and did not face Lu Ke's eyes directly, so naturally she could not feel that This subtle change in her aura, she just saw the reporters in the audience suddenly became mute. This... what on earth is going on?
Lu Ke nodded gently and said with a smile, "Since there are no more questions, my interview work is over today. Thank you everyone! See you in the next game!"
Then, Lu Ke turned around and left.
It wasn't until they watched Lu Ke leave that the tense atmosphere at the scene was finally lifted. The reporters began to gasp for air one by one. The breathing sounds in the audience were chaotic. If Lu Ke didn't leave, they would start one after another. Challenging the Guinness record for collective breath-holding.
Sophie was completely stunned and had no idea what was happening; but something even more surprising was yet to come——
"So what about the next game? What are Lu Ke's expectations?"
"What impact will Aldon's absence have on the team?"
"Is Lu Ke's injury really no longer a problem?"
All the chirping questions rushed towards Sophie, which made Sophie's head full of question marks: There are obviously still questions, so why not raise them while Lu Ke is around? What is going on with these reporters?
