Right ahead, Dawkins saw the rumored "Coach Miracle" at a glance.

Compared with the reporter's press conference, who was calm and controlled the entire venue, and had a strong aura of full firepower, the person in front of him was not like a coach, but more like a rugby player. His approachable smile made his already young face even more baby-faced, and it was no problem to say that he was a college student.

The last time we met, Lu Yiqi was just... "the Asian trainee coach" and "the Noah"; but this time we met, Lu Yiqi has become the "miracle coach". In the blink of an eye, a long time has passed. Is it eight years or ten years? Or just five years?

Dawkins' memory was already a little blurred, but what Dawkins could confirm was that time seemed to have stopped on Lu Yiqi's shoulders. The appearance I saw today completely overlapped with the appearance in my memory, and had never changed. Only he himself is old.

"Hey, Brian."

Lu Yiqi, who was talking to Griffin, noticed Dawkins' figure in his eyes, waved his hand and greeted him with a relaxed smile on his face.

Dawkins straightened his back slightly again, and also showed a confident smile, strided over and showed his demeanor.

"When was the last time we met?" Dawkins said preemptively. After the last call, he realized that he had to take the initiative, otherwise the entire rhythm of the conversation would fall into Lu Yiqi's control, "I always feel like I've spent a century."

"To be precise, it should be five years ago, in February 2004, we lost to the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl finale, and then I ended my internship. I met you once before leaving the hotel in Jacksonville. It was a heartbreaking night." Lu Yiqi replied with a smile, and Dawkins couldn't help but choke.

Not only because Lu Yiqi accurately spoke out the memories of their last meeting, but also because Lu Yiqi awakened the memories of the Super Bowl defeat.

The memories in Dawkins' mind became vivid again, and then his eyes fell on Lu Yiqi's cheek again, adding some confusion, because when he met again, Lu Yiqi had just won his first Super Bowl trophy, and the changes in the world were completely unthinkable.

But Lu Yiqi did not strike while the iron is hot and talk about the Super Bowl or the transfer, but made an invitation gesture, "I'm so hungry, why don't we start with ordering? I heard that the Tomahawk Steak in this restaurant is a signature, what do you think? Or do you have other recommendations?"

dinner?

Dawkins packed up his chaotic thoughts, forced himself to concentrate, and began to discuss the topic of dinner with Lu Yiqi and Griffin, but this was definitely not an easy task. The thoughts in his mind continued to distract himself, but they were getting more and more irritable.

However, Dawkins also has his own pride, and he is still calm on the surface, and he keeps his breath and chats with Lu Yiqi. He believes that Lu Yiqi is the person who is more eager - no matter what, he still has many ways to retreat. There are really many teams chasing him now, and he can definitely sit on the Diaoyutai.

really.

When the main course was about to end, before the waiter came to ask about the dessert, Lu Yiqi took the lead in speaking, "We all know why I appeared here, Brian, then, how are you thinking about it now? Are you willing to come to Green Bay and become a member of us?"

Things were developing as Dawkins expected, and he asked steadily, "If I go to Green Bay, what can you provide for me?"

Dawkins believes that he is the seller's market.

Griffin turned his head and looked at Lu Yiqi, as if he was asking with his eyes: Is this the situation you expected?

Lu Yiqi ignored Griffin's gaze, but leaned forward slightly, smiled at Dawkins, and gave his own answer, "Value."

"What?" Dawkins had never expected such an answer at all. Not only was he unexpected, but he was also confused, and his words blurted out directly-

It’s not victory or championship, it’s not respect or salary, but...value? What does this mean?

Lu Yiqi explained with a smile, "As a player, as a part of the team, the value of truly showing people the value of the position of safety."

This is an unexpected answer.

"Everyone is watching football, but everyone is watching quarterbacks, as if it's the only place to watch on the entire team, but we all know it's the wrong idea. In Green Bay, you can see Nelson, you can see Woodson, you can also see Hawke."

"Brian, I sincerely suggest you watch Green Bay game videos, we are a whole. Rodgers is excellent, I won't deny that, but without the support of other teammates, our season will be a different look. I let the fans and the audience see the value of other players."

“Now, I want people to see your worth.”

Sincerity, sincerity, firmness.

Lu Yiqi's gaze stared at Dawkins intently, his eyes firmly locked in Dawkins, and the pressure on his upper body left Dawkins nowhere to escape.

The plain words hit Dawkins' chest hard, and Dawkins also became excited, but Dawkins was not a child after all. He had long passed the age of cheering because of the hot-blooded comics. His pride and reason still held the reins of his thoughts.

"But people can't see these things. Times have changed. When I retire, people can see data, victory, champions, but they can't see these illusory things. Archie, shouldn't you give me all the exact things? If you directly give me a salary of 20 million yuan per year, things will be much simpler."

Dawkins said in a sarcastic tone.

Lu Yiqi was not angry either, but just chuckled, "Then I think Green Bay should not be your choice."

Without saying a word, they rejected the salary, not to mention whether Dawkins' salary can reach such a high level - now only a few quarterbacks in the entire league can reach such a level of salary; but Lu Yiqi does not want to use salary means to attract Dawkins to join, otherwise, just like Woodson at the time, they still need to face the potential possibility of Dawkins creating chaos in the locker room.

Lu Yiqi hopes that Dawkins understands what team he is joining, and this is the top priority. Then discuss salary later. The order is very important.

Lu Yiqi still stared at Dawkins intently, "Brian, you should calm down and think about what you really need. You are no longer young. You can continue to act arbitrarily. You ask for a salary of 20 million. You should know what this means. This is obviously not the correct way to open the negotiations."
