In fact, Thompson was also a little guilty and soft-mouthed.

Because he knew clearly that using the first round of this year and next year's first round of picks plus the second round of picks for the next year to exchange for this year's second round of picks is a premium transaction, and it can be said to be a serious premium. The Green Bay Packers are the ones who suffer. After completing the transaction impulsively, Thompson also regrets it a little.

However, Thompson himself is also facing a lot of pressure. On the one hand, the fans' expectations are rising sharply. They look forward to the team being able to make big moves during the offseason, especially big moves in the draft, which is the responsibility of the team manager; on the other hand, Lu Yiqi's reputation soared, showing an explosive overall rise. If Thompson does not make some moves, his position in the management will be impacted.

Thompson definitely doesn't want to see McCarthy and Favre repeating - that was just a year ago, how could he forget it?

It was also formally because of this, impulse was impulsive, but after completing the transaction, the negative emotions of regret only plagued Thompson for a short time. Then he calmed down and was very sure that he had made the right decision, which not only satisfies the fans, but also shows Lu Yiqi an invisible iron fist - the Green Bay Packers are still the final say, and Lu Yiqi should not be proud of it.

Kill two birds with one stone!

So, Thompson was very happy and satisfied with his work. He specifically notified Lu Yiqi, because he informed the head coach immediately, shared the news, and showed his trust in the head coach, but the real purpose hidden behind the official reasons was tacitly understood.

At this time, when facing Lu Yiqi, the reason why Thompson was short of breath was because he knew that he was not a person who could fool around and had no objections at random, and he could not be sure how Lu Yiqi would react. If Lu Yiqi publicly opposed the team manager's deal in front of the fans, Thompson would not have confidence that the fans would stand on his side.

He was almost certain that the fans would support Lu Yiqi.

But after realizing such a "fact", Thompson became even more angry. He didn't like such a fact, and he didn't like to admit such a fact.

So, when facing Lu Yiqi, Thompson's attitude fluctuated a little. The expression and tone were like this? The previous second was full of confidence, the next second was explained, and then the expression was tough again in the blink of an eye? "... Or do you have different opinions?"

The words were asking Lu Yiqi for his opinion, but his expression was "You'd better not have any opinions."

The curve of the smile on the corner of Lu Yiqi's mouth rose like this? "No. Let's discuss Andre Smith carefully. Have we decided to choose Andre Smith in the second pick?"

In just one sentence, you can see Lu Yiqi's cleverness.

In fact? Lu Yiqi can argue with Thompson about the question of "Is it worth trading one with three signs"? And Lu Yiqi believes that he can win the debate, but such a debate is meaningless because the draft pick deal between the Green Bay Packers and the St. Louis Rams has been completed and things are irreversible.

Lu Yiqi didn't know what was going on with the St. Louis Rams? They were originally planning to choose the offensive front line? But now the signing is traded, which also means that Snoparo and Schulmore's draft plans have also changed, and they should be in chaos.

Lu Yiqi's top priority is not to pursue the past, but to base himself on the present. How should they maximize the interests of the second pick in the lottery - if it fails? Then wait until today's draft meeting is over and settle the score later.

At present? Lu Yiqi needs to re-control the situation. He needs Thompson to calm down? Just like solving math problems, use reason to analyze profits? Lu Yiqi is preparing to use the language of the team manager to guide Thompson? This is the top priority at this stage? After all, there is not much time left in the draft.

In his words, Lu Yiqi not only did not ask about the behind-the-scenes footage of the draft pick, but also used the subject of "we" to show that he fought side by side with Thompson. With a small trick, he successfully pulled Thompson's attention back to the draft.

Thompson was very satisfied with Lu Yiqi's reaction, and his emotions and expression returned to his usual self-confidence. He sat directly on the desk, relaxed his shoulders, and looked like he was listening, "Why, listen to your tone, you seem to be dissatisfied with this choice?"

Thompson felt that Lu Yiqi was a person who knew the truth. The negative emotions he just leaked should not be directed at himself, but at Andre Smith. Such thoughts made Thompson think everything was easy, as long as they chose a top offensive front line, anyway, this year is a big year for offensive front line.

"Oh? Does Mr. Thompson think Andre Smith is appropriate?" Lu Yiqi threw the problem back and retreated to advance. He needed to grasp Thompson's ideas first.

"Why not?" Thompson said frankly, "he is strong, famous in his school, strong in body, unlimited potential, and fans also like him. He is the most outstanding offensive forward at this year's draft. He is now a star player. I think he meets the second pick."

Lu Yiqi gently lifted his jaw, "So you don't mind his bad performance in training camp? I mean, I personally don't like his attitude towards training camp, Mr. Thompson, you should know my consistent requirements and attitude towards training, and I don't think he meets my standards."

"Haha, I know, why don't you know? You are a little too strict with training. Many players sneaked over here to complain and protest. I'll help you to suppress it." After Thompson relaxed, he even felt in the mood to joke with Lu Yiqi, "But I think he is a young man, just a little arrogant. Everything can be taught slowly. Look at Rogers, he trusts you very much now, doesn't he?"

Lu Yiqi is very experienced in controlling his position. He does not give in to his profession. He needs to let Thompson know his bottom line. In fact, from Thompson's reaction and attitude, it can be seen that Lu Yiqi has indeed won his respect.

Therefore, in terms of training attitude and player character, Lu Yiqi was very firm, "No, for me, this is an unacceptable bottom line. I cannot understand and refuse to understand his posture towards training camp; and, I believe, Green Bay fans will not like such players either."
