Dominate the Super Bowl-Chapter 1020 - 1019 It’s all a trick
"Professor, Professor Hannibal, wait!"
Shout out, blurted out.
Instantly, the whole press conference room fell silent, even Li Wei, who was about to get up, stopped and looked over with a half-smile.
However, the reporter didn’t realize what he had just shouted; he was only glad that he managed to hold Li Wei back.
Opportunity!
"Can I ask, do you have any comments about Nick Foles? You were the first to applaud when Foles was forced to leave the field, right?"
"Obviously, the atmosphere between the two teams was extremely tense in this match; the Jacksonville Jaguars experienced a black three minutes, and Myles Jack had just been ejected, yet you still paid tribute to Foles."
"What’s going on? Can you explain?"
Finally!
Finally, a question worth answering!
Li Wei sat back down, "Because he deserves it."
"In the Super Bowl two years ago, we all burned ourselves out, leaving a part of ourselves in that game, and it was a memorable experience."
"I look forward to meeting him again, to battle fairly again, to fight to the end for our dreams again."
"Tonight, he was ready, but unfortunately, it ended this way."
"This offseason, we have already experienced such bad situations more than once or twice, and I believe Nick will not give up; he will continue to fight, just like Eric Berry."
"I know many people think Eric has run out of fuel and may never return to top form, but Eric still perseveres and fights. I believe this is a part of the professional field often overlooked yet worthy of respect and admiration."
"So, just like Eric Berry, Alex Smith, Andrew Luck, I also applaud Nick Foles."
There was a slight commotion in the front, yet no one disrupted it, emotions surging in the silence.
Until the reporter came back to his senses, "Were you just promoting Eric Berry?"
Li Wei was utterly sincere, "Yes."
Too honest, too direct, and the reporters burst into laughter all of a sudden.
Li Wei stayed calm, nothing to fuss about. The new season has already begun, Berry still waiting at home, refusing to retire, believing he can return to the field and face top players.
Li Wei thinks the teams need to know this.
He’s just in charge of spreading the word.
The reporter followed up, "And what about Myles Jack?"
They hadn’t forgotten another focal point of today’s match. Social networks were filled with voices blindly shouting "bad refereeing" with eyes covered and ears plugged, unwilling to miss such a buzz.
Li Wei, "Oh, I like Jack."
Reporter: ??? "Are you serious?"
Li Wei, "Of course. Standing next to Jack, he always reminds me how easy it is to get into fights."
Poof.
The press conference room couldn’t hold back, faint laughter rippling in the air.
Perhaps, Li Wei was the only exception, not thinking he was joking. Didn’t they feel his sincerity?
Moreover, Li Wei doesn’t care about Myles, what he’s genuinely interested in is, "How did you just call me? Hannibal? Don’t bully me for being uncultured; I’ve watched some movies."
Hahaha!
The laughter couldn’t be contained and quickly spread, filling the whole space with a joyful atmosphere.
Even though it was pretty out of place now, the whole situation was just too funny—
Three weeks ago, Luck suddenly announced his retirement, dropping a bombshell. Li Wei had accepted interviews voluntarily, yet quietly held control, his mental manipulation terrifying those veterans.
From then on, some reporter jokingly called Li Wei Professor Hannibal.
However, it was just a joke among a few reporters.
Until today—
The inside joke finally leaked.
The reporter was utterly baffled, "Did I say that? No, I didn’t."
Did he accidentally slip out his true thoughts in his rush?
Oh no!
Cannot admit, cannot admit no matter what.
"Professor." The reporter said. "I was just calling Professor, Running Back Professor."
Li Wei didn’t buy it, raising his eyebrows slightly, "Hannibal is also a professor."
The reporter acted dumb, "Really? I didn’t know; I’m not familiar with movies."
Li Wei, "So you do know Professor Hannibal is a movie character?"
Reporter: ... Darn!
Li Wei’s lips slightly lifted, "What a pity."
"Actually, I quite like that character, an evil villain yet inspires a sense of admiration mixed with guilt and fear that uncontrollably draws attention. I remember, it’s not just movies, there’s also TV series later, right?"
The reporter blinked, What? Li Wei likes it?
"Yes. Professor, it’s a nickname inspired by Professor Hannibal."
The quick change of tune, kneeling on the spot.
The other reporters in the room looked up: Idiot.
Fools so easily, what kind of constitution is this?
Li Wei lightly lifted his chin, "So, you’re comparing me to a serial killer, hmm... interesting."
The phrase "Undeniably Stunning" seemed profound, with an elongated tone.
The air briefly froze.
The journalist bathed in Li Wei’s gaze, froze in place, wishing to evaporate, realizing his mistake three beats too late:
He acted foolishly.
Indeed, Li Wei is Professor Hannibal; isn’t this mental control if not?
Then.
Li Wei sat up straight again, showing a smile, "Don’t worry; I don’t bite." freēnovelkiss.com
The sarcasm effect was full—
Those who have watched "The Silence of the Lambs" or "Hannibal" should know Professor Hannibal’s passion for cuisine, with his biggest interest being "Culinary Tour of the USA."
Now, looking at Li Wei’s innocent face, reporters didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Fortunately, the press conference ended smoothly:
No casualties.
The 2019 season gradually unfolded, and by the time all the regular-season Week 1 events had concluded, the winds of fortune had silently shifted.
"Defending champs ready."
"Kansas City Chiefs embrace the new season with a new look."
"Two-time defending champions face stern tests, ushering in the season’s opening victory with a convincing win."
No doubts, no controversies, no unease; everything vanished without a trace, with applause all around in the headlines of major media.
Everything is very familiar, all part of the routine.
This also again verified the iron law of competitive sports; there’s nothing victory cannot solve. If not one win, then win again.
Not just the Kansas City Chiefs but the controversies around Li Wei disappeared like snow embracing the sun, leaving only accolades.
"Li Wei’s strong season start, contributing over 200 passing and rushing yards."
"Season starting! Strong debut! Li Wei is still the man everyone in the league wants to defeat."
"At ease, Li Wei opens his third-year journey with a perfect performance."
"The rookie is still the rookie, victory still feels familiar."
"The power of a $20 million annual salary—Rookie dominates regular season Week 1 Sunday night game!"
