"For the future, do you have a clear goal?" Lu Ke was slowly reversing the car, entering the parking space, and Leh's question came to his ear. Such a broad and deep question, without warning.
Lu Ke couldn't help but stunned and smiled blankly; however, he didn't answer at once, but he steadily parked the car locally, and after turning off the engine, he turned to look at Lech, "You are testing my ability to back up, Or are I testing my ability to adapt to changes? "Such a voicing made Lech smile.
After the joke, Lu Ke smiled and said seriously, "Everyone says Super Bowl, winning Super Bowl, this is everyone's goal. Obviously, I am no exception." There is no ingenious answer, but sincerity The sincere answer, "But I know my position clearly, the Super Bowl is still too far away for me, that is the ultimate goal; now for me, winning the starting position, winning every victory, this is all . "
Not humble and cautious, nor self-effacing, but down-to-earth.
Every player in the league is eager to win the Super Bowl, and that is the ultimate goal, but there is only one champion every year. For Lu Ke, instead of thinking about the Super Bowl, it is better to really improve his strength. After all, for him, the starting position and the victory of the game are the most practical and the most desired.
"The game won one by one. Then I think, the Super Bowl is a matter of course." Lu Ke showed a big smile, his eyes flashed with confidence and perseverance.
Lech nodded with a smile, "This is very interesting." This is what he said.
In Lu Ke, there is the calmness and restraint of the Orientals, and the confidence and outspokenness of the Westerners, which truly mix the characteristics of the two cultures. As the first Chinese player in NFL history, Lech is not sure whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, and in the end, what future can he head for; but what is certain is that this is an interesting thing.
Lu Ke nodded meaningfully, pursed his lips, "This is also an interesting evaluation." The same adjective, the meaning has become different. "Okay. I have to go to the training ground now, what about you? Do I need a taxi for you?"
Lech's wrinkled cheeks showed a gentle smile and waved his hand gently, "Don't worry. This is Candlestick Park, not National Park, I always have a way to go home."
Lu Ke didn't have too many polite sets anymore. After getting off the bus, he said goodbye to Lech again, and then he carried his equipment and walked towards the dressing room.
Lech is an agent and a confident agent; Lu Ke knows exactly what this means. But in fact, he was not in a hurry.
It is not because Lu Ke does not need a broker, on the contrary, it is precisely because of the importance and key of the broker, Lu Ke hopes to choose carefully.
Just like Trent Balk's original idea of ​​choosing Lu Ke, everyone's psychology has an abacus. If Lu Ke succeeds in gaining a foothold in the alliance, even if it is not a starter, it is not the main force, just as a stable and reliable substitute, then Lu Ke ’s commercial value in the Asian immigration market and even the Asian market is absolutely Not to be underestimated.
Not a competitive perspective, but a strategy from the perspective of business operations. The commercial value of the title of "the first Asian player in the history of the NFL" needs no elaboration. When the 49ers in San Francisco announced Lu Ke as the starting quarterback, even the league officials gave affirmation and launched a series of publicity.
In this regard, Lu Ke is not a professional, but he is not ignorant.
An excellent broker, a correct broker, and a co-produced broker are all crucial to Lu Ke's career, market development, future planning and even his personal life.
In fact, the relationship between the agent and the player is a two-way choice. Both parties can choose to accompany each other to success, but they can also choose to fire each other at any time.
The agent hopes to gain more benefits through the players; similarly, the players also hope to better plan their careers through the agents. A truly excellent and good cooperative relationship should be mutual help and mutual promotion; however, in a modern society with materialistic desires, this employment relationship is very fragile.
The movie "Mr. Sweetheart" starring Tom Cruise focuses on the football agent. In the movie, the role played by Tom focuses all his energy on a player, desperate to help his players. Go to the top.
But in real life, driven by interests, an agent often has multiple players, and top agents like Tom Condon abound.
Although it is not uncommon for players to change agents, or agents cancel contracts, Lu Ke does not want to spend too much time on agents, he only hopes to concentrate on the game and training wholeheartedly. The trivial matters are all handed over to the broker.
If possible, Lu Ke does not want to change brokers frequently.
In the first week of the regular season, after the game against the Seattle Seahawks, Lu Ke's personal mobile phone received calls from fourteen different agents. They completed self-introduction, they had basic communication, and they planned their careers. , They expressed their ambition ...
However, too many people are really dazzling and difficult to judge, which is counterproductive.
For Lu Ke, it was more like a troublesome sales call. He didn't remember the names of the 14 agents; then, the game came in the second week, and then, two consecutive victories came. After the game, there were countless incoming calls. Lu Ke simply adjusted the mute and didn't answer any of them.
There were a total of 78 missed calls before and after, from 27 different strange calls. A little crazy.
Now, Lech-Steinberg personally appeared in front of Lu Ke. It is no longer a telephone communication, but a face-to-face conversation, the real feeling becomes clear bit by bit. Not only showed the sincerity of Lech, but also outlined the role of "broker".
However, Lu Ke was not blinded, but chose carefully. Now that you have missed the signing and negotiation of the rookie contract, it's okay to postpone it a bit; let alone, the third week of the regular season is imminent, Lu Ke needs to concentrate, and these off-court things will be put aside for the time being.
Today is Wednesday, and there are a whole day of heavy tasks waiting. Lu Ke took firm steps without any attachments or pauses.
Lech didn't leave, standing in the parking lot, staring at the back of the landing, and showing his playfulness. Compared to Lu Ke, Lech ’s harvest today is obviously more.
Lech-Steinberg, 62 years old this year, is one of the most senior and authoritative big-name brokers in the industry.
He is not affiliated with any top brokerage company, but owns his own independent sports brokerage company "Steinberg, Murad and Dunn Sports Brokerage Company". As the name implies, the company's name comes from the surnames of the three partners ; But this independent sports company is one of the top in the industry.
Unlike Tom Condon, Lech-Steinberg is an alternative in the industry. Since his career, in almost every era, he has only focused on a quarterback agent, leaving all his care and energy to him. A player.
In the 1990s, Steve Young of the San Francisco 49ers, three-time Super Bowl champion, Hall of Fame quarterback; in the 1990s, Troy-Aikman of the Dallas Cowboys, three Super Bowl champion, quarterback of the Hall of Fame; In the first decade of the 21st century, Pittsburgh Steelers' Ben Rothsberg, two-time Super Bowl champion, many rookie quarterback records holder.
Of course, the peak active years of these quarterbacks have more or less overlapping periods, but on the whole, Lech will never represent too many players, stick to the less refined route, and really put his work Pushing to the extreme, step by step has become the top of the industry's top. Even top agents such as Tom Condon, in front of Lech, must give him three points.
For reference, the real prototype of "Mr. Sweetheart" is Lech-Steinberg.
At present, the football player in the hands of Lech is only "Big Ben" Ben-Rosrisberg.
Big Ben was a rookie who entered the league in 2004. In a blink of an eye, rookie rookie has transformed into a seven-year veteran, and this year officially entered the eighth season; intermittently, Lech has been looking for rookies worth taking over, but uphold Ning lacks indiscriminate principles, he has never signed the next quarterback.
Until the emergence of Lu Ke.
To be honest, Lech still hasn't made a decision, and today is just the first contact with observation; but it has yielded a lot.
The first notice of Lu Ke can be traced back to the Rose Bowl at the beginning of the year. Lech, who now lives in Los Angeles, watched the game that night, witnessed the sensational call, and witnessed the reversal of the last two minutes. He was deeply impressed by the backup quarterback.
But that's all. Lech did not initiate any investigation. At that time, it was Lu Ke ’s Chinese identity, and curiosity and gossip prevailed.
The awesomeness and brilliance of the rookie training camp made Lech really interested in Lu Ke because he knows more than anyone, the Asian market and the potential of Asian immigrants.
Today's formal contacts have subverted some ideas, but have firmed up some ideas. This player is indeed an interesting guy.
Now, Lech is also looking forward to it. This week, the San Francisco 49ers starting quarterback battle, who will win?
On the one hand, the quarterback of the No. 1 pick, the veteran of the league, playing steadily, but never broke through the window paper, returning from injury, trying to complete self-breakthrough; on the other hand, the rookie quarterback, four surprises, but also a big ups and downs, after two consecutive victories, Hope to continue the state.
The seemingly natural choices, when examined in detail, are full of countless possibilities. Jim Hubble, the decision is now in his hands.
