The morning sun was lazily falling down, the dark blue night was slowly fading, and the gentle breeze was blowing, and the chills started involuntarily. California in September was still a hot summer day, but San Francisco had smelled the early autumn Breath, no wonder Mark-Twain said, "The coldest winter I have experienced is the summer in San Francisco."
In the blink of an eye, Wednesday has arrived, and it hasn't even been time to digest the sediment. The short vacation time has ended, and the third week of the regular season must start to be busy.
Today will be a very busy day. First is the media open day, then the "San Francisco Chronicle" photo time, followed by the resume training, and then all the players of the team gathered together to watch the video of the game of the second week-
Although it is said that yesterday, Lu Ke has spent most of the day watching the game video; but this is the player's personal preparation. Today, the team is preparing for the battle collectively, analyzing tactics, analyzing cooperation, analyzing gains and losses, and so on.
After two weeks of adaptation, Lu Ke is now slowly adjusting his training schedule. According to the team and the difference in the schedule, every day from Monday to Friday, the training schedule must be adjusted accordingly.
For example, today is Wednesday, after getting up in the morning, Lu Ke did not immediately start strenuous exercise, but first jog on the treadmill for 20 minutes, and then began to warm up, pull-ups, parallel bars, arm support, push-ups, three groups for each item 15 to 20 times per group; followed by a 10,000-meter variable-speed endurance run. After returning, head to the training base to start strength training.
Overall, today, Lu Ke divides his daily training tasks into three parts, which are completed at three different time periods throughout the day. Not only can it complement the team ’s plan, complement team training and system tasks, but also adapt to the tone of Wednesday ’s
recovery training
to relax the training intensity a little.
Of course, adapting to a professional league is a long process. It is now only two weeks. There are bound to be unreasonable plans and arrangements. With the accumulation of experience, it will gradually become familiar.
Change clothes, change running shoes, leave the house, prepare to start today's variable-speed endurance running, slowly increase the speed along the slopes, all the way up, start adjusting the breathing in climbing mode, but only ran half a block At the intersection where the street intersects, Lu Ke's footsteps stopped.
Sitting on the roadside was a gray-haired old man with a wooden cane at his feet and a dark blue handkerchief in his hand, wiping sweat from his forehead, his pale face seemed to be experiencing his body Torture; he could n’t even care about his dark grey custom suit, sitting cross-legged on the ground, panting.
"Sir, do you need help?" Lu Ke stepped back, squatted down, and asked with concern.
It was only seven o'clock at this time. The chilly air stimulated a goose bump on the surface of the skin. There were not many pedestrians on the street. The morning of the working day was just awakening. The quiet and breathtaking atmosphere flowed between the living blocks. It seems that this old gentleman was unexpectedly in trouble during a morning walk.
The old man did not speak, but adjusted his breath systematically, took a deep breath, and took a deep breath again, and then a helpless self-deprecating smile appeared on the cheeks full of vicissitudes and wrinkles. Protests began, and many parts were broken. "
"I think this is a problem that everyone needs to face, regardless of age." Seeing the other party is okay, Lu Ke felt a little relieved and said with a smile, "It's just that the problem caused by age is a little bit It ’s a little bit more, and it ’s accompanied by the experience and wisdom of life, so there are gains and losses, and we ca n’t be too greedy. "
Sensing the old man's smile and having frowned frowns, Lu Ke asked again with concern, "Are you okay? If necessary, I can call 911."
In the United States, "911" is more than an alarm call. You can call this number for any request, and then describe your situation to the operator, who will make judgments and choices, and further call the hospital, police station or fire station, etc. Therefore, if you do not remember the detailed call number, or if you are not sure who to call for help in the current situation, then choosing "911" is the simplest and most direct.
The old man did not speak, but covered his heart. It seemed that the heart was under load beyond the body, causing a chain reaction.
Without much hesitation, Lu Ke took down the mobile phone above the sports armband and prepared to dial.
"Don't worry." The old man raised his right hand and waved gently. "It's just that the old man is physically weak." To convince Lu Ke, he raised his head and showed a big smile, "Trust me, I am now There is no plan to surrender. If there is a problem, I am more anxious than you. "
Lu Ke froze for a moment, then saw the teasing and ridicule in the eyes of the old man, and laughed blankly, "Are you sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure." The old man closed his jaw gently, but his weak tone was full of firmness.
He looked about sixty years old, maybe even older, with wrinkles on his cheeks, which looked like dry oranges; a neat three-piece suit, which seemed a bit outdated at this time, really too It is formal, but it reflects his taste. It seems to be a guy with class and status.
At this time, on the white cheeks, two blushes flew, and the sweat from the forehead and neck revealed a weakness; however, he had bright eyes, showing a clear emerald green in the thin morning light The spirited eyes showed a youth that was incompatible with age and body.
Lu Ke nodded slightly, expressing his understanding. He believed that the old man was indeed fine.
"That's good." Lu Ke didn't continue to advise, "I'm on my way to the morning run, then, I will leave first." No longer staying, but Lu Ke did not leave immediately, looked up and looked around, " If you still feel uncomfortable, this is the Cassani family. He is Italian and hospitable. He is not very reliable at the critical moment, but he can still be trusted by calling '911'. "
The old man smiled dumbly and nodded gently, "Thank you for your advice."
Lu Ke smiled, then waved his hand and gestured. After getting up, he started again, and was involved in today's running.
Leigh-Steinberg exhaled a long, long breath, his slightly sullen chest was slightly relieved, raised his head, stared at the back of the landing, and watched the young man gradually As he walked away, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his ruddy cheeks gradually returned to normal.
Although it was only a short-term relationship, Lu Ke made a good impression on Lech: being enthusiastic, humorous, and approachable; in the face of unexpected situations, he can make judgments in a short time and be willing to help others , But there is no overflowing love, within the power, within the scope of the point; more importantly, the eyes are firm and the will is strong. Daily training always maintains high intensity.
For a young rookie under the age of 22, it is really rare.
Of course, as the first Chinese quarterback to start in league history, and also led the team to a two-game winning streak, this player is bound to have certain qualities that ordinary people do not have; otherwise, just luck, this is not A qualified explanation.
However, it is not uncommon for a rookie in the league to have such a stance; the question is, how long can it last? Especially after the attention and the lights swarmed in, and after wealth and fame surrounded it, how long could this heart of the naked child last?
Without getting up in a hurry, Lech sat peacefully, waiting quietly for his breathing and heartbeat to stabilize.
After recovering fully, Lech grabbed the crutches next to him, used the support point, stood up and dangled, and then took a slow pace, began to descend, only half a street away, he just Found the destination and stopped in front of a house.
With his hands crossed on the crutches, his body leaned slightly against the fence, and his eyes fell on the red mailbox next to it, painted with white paint, "LU".
This house is Lu Ke's home.
This morning, it was Lech ’s mission to visit Lu Ke and get to know Lu Ke; but the heart disease was an accident, and meeting Lu Ke in advance was even more unexpected. One accident met another accident, but had unexpected gains; now, after the accident is over, it is time to return to the track of the original plan.
Patiently, impatiently, Lech did not worry, standing patiently and waiting.
After the passage of time, there were scattered running footsteps and smooth breathing adjustment sounds in the ears. Lu Ke, who was slowly slowing down, sweating and flushing cheeks, could be seen in the line of sight, but his eyes were still clear and bright , Vaguely revealed a surprise, apparently not prepared for such a reunion.
"Hey, is there anything I can help you with?" Lu Ke's footsteps stopped five steps away from Lech, exuding a vigilant breath—
The old man who accidentally met just now appeared at the door of his house, and it was still early in the morning. This thing revealed strangeness everywhere.
Lech didn't mind, but shrugged with a smile. "Relax, I'm not a fan of fanaticism coming over." He knew that the fan's excessive actions had also led to Lu Ke's full vigilance.
But this sentence still did not let Lu Ke relax. Lech slowly took out a small silver box from the suit pocket. You can see the exquisite picture and retro buttons, but the small objects also reveal the nobility.
Opening the box, Lech pulled out a white cardboard with excellent texture and handed it over, "Good morning, although we have already met, please allow me to introduce myself formally. Lech-Steinberg, broker."
Lu Ke took the jam and looked down. This is a business card, simple and elegant, simple and elegant, you can feel the texture and pattern of the card at your fingertips, there is no extra modification on it, only a name and a title:
"Agent, Lech-Steinberg."
