Outside the 1003 program
February 14, 2009, Valentine's Day.
Due to the strong impact of the financial crisis, this year's Valentine's Day has become obviously deserted and low-key, and it has fallen into a downturn from hotels to restaurants to gift shops. Not many people even remember such a special festival, but they just come and go and run around for life, and the entire market has become quiet.
And just early in the morning of that day, NFL TV official reporter Ian Rapoport announced a big news on Twitter.
"According to reliable sources of information, Green Bay Packers and Coach Noah Lu have reached a contract renewal agreement, which will be a big contract to make history."
boom!
As the most sensitive and reliable reporter with official information from the league, Rapoport is always active on the front line of social networks. At a time when Facebook and Twitter have just risen in full swing and are in a period of rapid growth, Rapoport has made full use of the activity of social networks to create topics.
Immediately afterwards, espn, Fox TV and other news channels also confirmed the relevant news one after another, but no one could determine how sensational this contract was. The bustling discussions were spread out early on different social network platforms, with an influence beyond imagination.
"The Ocean Biscuits of the New Era" Lu Yiqi wrote a fairy tale that was more magical than Kurt Warner on the 43rd Super Bowl that just ended two weeks ago, and reached the championship throne with an incredible miracle posture, which also became a ray of hope under the darkness of the financial crisis.
Even Valentine's Day cannot inspire people's enthusiasm, but the news that Lu Yiqi renewed his contract with Green Bay Packers instantly triggered a frenzy of discussion.
The nbc news program "Today", which has dominated the list for more than 20 years in the United States, also discussed the "Aqi phenomenon" in the program. The two hosts spent nearly fifteen minutes to discuss the miracles created by Lu Yiqi and people's expectations for Lu Yiqi.
Hulala!
For a moment, all the office workers from 9 to 5 eagerly discussed Lu Yiqi's contract renewal and began to imagine how powerful this contract was, so that they discussed it "Today", which should be a rare sight.
Later, Rapoport posted an internal message on Twitter again.
"According to relevant persons in the Green Bay Packers team, the amount of renewal agreement between Green Bay Packers and Coach Noah Lu has reached $50 million."
Boom boom!
Although Rapoport did not give exact numbers, an ambiguous news easily pushed the discussion craze to a whole new peak.
In fact, a contract of 50 million still requires a look at the years and the amount of guarantees. For example, 50 million in ten years, then there is nothing strange about it. But people know that it is impossible for Green Bay Packers to issue a 50 million in ten years, so the specific age is worth discussing.
Then, Fox TV revealed the first exact sensational news, "According to information sources of relevant people inside the Green Bay Packers, Coach Noah Lu rejected a ten-year contract of 150 million, instead hoping to win the voice in building the team."
Boom boom boom boom!
One hundred and fifty million in ten years?
What exactly does this mean? Some people who are obsessing with melons have no brains to work, but the rugby industry insiders clearly understand the meaning. In addition to being shocked and stunned, they couldn't help but start discussing one by one. Is this the smoke bomb of the Green Bay Packers? Or what's going on?
The answer will be announced soon.
Green Bay Packers issued an official notice? A formal press conference was held at 12 noon? Major news media in North America were in full swing.
At about 12 o'clock, media reporters all appeared in the press room of Blue Castle Stadium? Because the news notification was a little hurry? The number of reporters attending was not large, mainly the reporters stationed in Green Bay all year round? But they included the working groups of NBC TV and Fox TV, and recorded the entire process with cameras. It can be seen that their attention is.
Team manager Ted Thompson and team president Mark Murphy appeared at the press conference together? And all the fans were curious about.
"The Green Bay Packers and head coach Noah Lu officially reached a contract renewal agreement, and the two sides signed a five-year contract of 50 million. We look forward to joining hands in the next five years to continue to create good results and climb to the top. The team is very satisfied with the head coach's work in the past year? And I believe he can lead us to create more miracles? The team is eager to prepare for the arrival of a new season."
The mystery veil was finally unveiled.
With a five-year, 50 million contract, the first head coach in North America with an annual salary of 10 million was officially born, writing historical records again. Even if people have long been used to Lu Yiqi's glory of repeatedly creating miracles? But they still felt the shock and shock that came to their faces.
But what is even more incredible is that Lu Yiqi, who created history, did not appear at the press conference? This made the reporters' heads full of question marks.
Thompson smiled a big smile? “Our Coach Archie has started preparing for the new season and is now running between different training camps. To be honest, today’s press conference is not the planned itinerary? Coach Archie hopes that we can focus on preparing for the season? So we were just preparing to release an official news, so he set off early to start working.”
boom!
The entire North American region caused a sensation, and even the official coalition officials issued a news bulletin. Although they did not express any unnecessary comments, the actions of the official bulletin could be seen. Goodell was really satisfied with this result and gave the official affirmation.
There is no doubt that Lu Yiqi has once again become the focus of attention.
Thompson faced the bombardment of reporters at the press conference, bathed in the spotlight, carrying all the sights that should have belonged to Lu Yiqi; and at the same time, what about Lu Yiqi?
"Marriage Road, take me home, take me back to my leaves; West Virginia, Mom Mountain, take me home."
Lu Yiqi was singing loudly as he was following the radio broadcast. Griffin, who was sitting in the passenger seat, raised his feet high and hummed the tunes together.
Walker's voice came from the kitchen behind the RV, "Coach, lunch is ready, find a place to park."
In addition to Lu Yiqi and Griffin, the road trip also included Reggie Walker, who volunteered to serve as a driver and assistant. In fact, Walker came to study specifically. He wanted to study hard with Lu Yiqi, so he took the initiative to end the holiday early.
Chapter completed!
