The night is colorful and the afterglow of the sunset.
Valerie stared at Lu Yiqi quietly, and she realized that she had underestimated the coach.
She understood that his youth and race would undoubtedly become an important highlight of the NCAA this season. No matter how Kansas State performed in the last two championship games, he would emerge like a comet. This is why she became interested and couldn't help but explore more.
But she realized that his wise and wise are still above expectations. Even when facing ESPN's exclusive interviews and even when facing the glory of creating history, she can still maintain a calmness of being unstoppable and disgraceful. This mind alone has shown that it is not consistent with the NCAA.
Not everyone can say "no" to ESPN.
"Are you looking forward to meeting again after winning the championship?" Valerie quipped.
Lu Yiqi pursed his lips and said naturally, "If you didn't win the championship, you would have lost interest." This is the truth of the media.
Valerie chuckled, "We are competing for news explosion points, but it is not necessarily a jackal, tiger and leopard. Please don't confuse us with the suits on Wall Street." While joking, Lu Yiqi looked undeniable, which made Valerie smile all over his eyes. He became more and more interested in Lu Yiqi. Then, she stretched out her right hand, "Valerie Granger."
Lu Yiqi looked down at Valerie's right hand, placed it generously in front of him, and straightened his back confidently and calmly. The brief embarrassment and chaos just now were placed behind him, so he also stretched out his right hand to complete the handshake and complete the self-introduction.
"Lu Yiqi."
Valerie squeezed Lu Yiqi's right hand hard, but found that the other party's palm was as hard as a rock, unable to shake it at all. Instead, her own palm was aching slightly. But on the surface, she still hid her emotions well and said with a smile, "Looking forward to the next meeting."
The two of them didn't say anything more, let go of their right hand, and then turned around and left.
After walking a few steps away, Valerie grinned and rubbed her right hand, and couldn't help but muttering, "What the hell is that guy making?" Then she realized that his back might reveal his emotions, so she quickly straightened her back and stepped on her running shoes to the effect of high heels.
"Even if the performance is screwed up, you must remain elegant when you leave the show." Valerie thought so.
After returning to the hotel to take a shower in the evening, he sat on the sofa with his knees in his arms. However, Valerie couldn't help but recall a moment of confrontation with Lu Yiqi again:
Investigation work?
Why did he remind himself that he needed to do a good job in investigation? For reporters, investigation is a basic homework, and of course she has completed her preparations. So what mistakes have happened? Could it be that she missed some key news? Or what key points have she missed?
With a flash of inspiration, Valerie quickly opened the laptop and opened the relevant page of Lu Yiqi's background information - there were not many of these information. She had read it several times before, but she had no gains. But this time she was different. She searched with purpose and found it quickly:
Graduated institution: Michigan State University.
Graduation major: Journalism Department.
Graduation thesis: A brief discussion of the social causes and future social impacts of sports news entertainment in the Internet era. (Excellent graduation thesis).
"What?"
Valerie couldn't believe her eyes. Why did she miss such important and critical information? Her whole stomach burned. She couldn't help but jump from the sofa, sighed to the sky, and turned around in place. "That guy must have laughed so hard that his stomach hurts. God, I have no face to show up in the future."
Damn it!
Standing on the carpet in the hotel room, Valerie vented her annoyance, her long golden hair was rubbed into a chicken coop. Then she lowered her head, thought about it seriously, and cheered up again. She picked up the computer again, went to Google, and began to search for Lu Yiqi's graduation thesis.
"Thesis papers...ahha! Here! I've caught you!"
The ESPN team, which was holding a tutoring conference in the next room in the hotel, could hear the cheering sounds, looking at each other, asking questions in a head, and then hesitantly asked, "Is Val stimulated something? Do we need to go over and confirm the situation?"
...
Lu Yiqi did not mock Valerie for his intentions. He was planning to almost pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger in the media circle for a while. There was no need to expose himself too early, so he pretended that today's episode had never been discovered - even if Valerie was accusing him, he would deny everything righteously.
In addition, Lu Yiqi now has one more important thing waiting to be handled, and he has no time to recall the poor performances brought by a media reporter:
Edit text messages.
For the older generation, writing letters requires careful consideration of every word and sentence. The scent of paper and ink is a true portrayal of the repeated mood.
For the younger generation, editing text messages is their own "letter". Although they cannot see the deleted and modified parts, they hold their phone back and forth to delete, edit, modify, and consider it. In the end, they deleted them all, leaving only blank dialog boxes, as if nothing had existed. This is their uneasy.
Now Lu Yiqi is going through this process: he sits upright on the sofa in the living room with his head raised and his chest, holding his cell phone in both hands, as if he is holding the Bible.
"Mom, we won another victory..."
"Mom, the team is about to... next week..."
"Mom, the season is over, we're in..."
"Mom, are you in good health? Where is Dad?"
"Mom, we..."
"Mom, we successfully defeated the University of Missouri..."
"Mom, the season is over in two weeks. This year the team has entered the championship stage..."
Repeatedly, deleting and deleting, the words seemed to be not much different, but they were always considering them. However, Lu Yiqi didn't know what he was considering, because those words had no meaning, they were so soulless, just a bunch of meaningless symbol combinations, and they were all the same bunch of nonsense. So what is the meaning of the modification?
But the uneasiness and anxiety in my heart are always irritable. Even if I keep telling myself that I must calm down, it is just in vain. The calmness and wisdom in the game are useless at this time.
I always feel like I have become a primary school student again.
Finally, Lu Yiqi simply threw the phone on the desktop, stood up suddenly, turned around and walked towards the bathroom in anger, preparing to take a shower; after walking halfway, he walked back, picked up the phone, quickly edited some text, gritted his teeth and pressed the send button, then threw the phone down, turned around and ran towards the bathroom, as if the phone was a vicious devil.
"Mom, the team has entered the championship game. I will command the team on the sidelines. I will reserve two tickets for you at the ticket office. The following is the address."
