San Francisco ’s 49-person press conference hall is well-known among the league.

However, the interior decoration is not very advanced and modern. It is actually a stepped classroom space. In front of it is a small stage with a long table and the team ’s flag hanging behind; facing A fan-shaped staircase room, layered layer by layer. The whole design is general and satisfactory.

What really reminds people here is the interior decoration and color matching. The combination of gold, red and azure blue is simple and generous with grace and elegance. The dark blue carpet under the feet reduces all the noise and noise in the room. At the smallest, there is a soft, comfortable and brisk jump in the warm air. The beauty above the vision always makes people happy.

In fact, Candelabra Stadium is a historic stadium. It has been more than half a century since its completion. Old buildings, old decoration and backward equipment can see the traces of time.

Although the Yorks took over the team and carried out some internal renovations to welcome the new era with a brand-new attitude; but since 2006, the Yorks have been seeking to build a new stadium, and in 2010 passed a proposal to win With the support of the City Hall, the new stadium was officially put into construction.

In the near future, the candlestick stadium may be history.

Despite this, this historic stadium still carries the glory and glory of the entire team. In this press conference hall, people witnessed the departure of Joe Montana and the retirement of Steve Young. The meaning is still different after all.

At this time, more than 60 reporters gathered in the press conference hall busily, waiting anxiously, those sitting on the chair, chatting one sentence at a time, looking away from time to time to the entrance on the left side of the stage Floating around, searching for the figure that appeared; some couldn't sit at all, simply stood up, pacing back and forth in the narrow passage and the open space in front.

Today is Friday, not Wednesday ’s official news day.

As usual, the media reporters will never appear, and the team will not open the interview to avoid disturbing the players' daily training. But at this time, the whole hall was very lively, and the lineup of more than 60 reporters was not top, but there were also many. There was no loud noise, and the faintly surging dark tide made people feel nervous and expectant.

This is an official press conference held by 49 people in San Francisco. Today is Friday, with less than two days left until Sunday's game. The highly anticipated starting quarterback candidate is about to be officially announced.

In the end, it is the most recent miracle-losing rookie quarterback Lu Ke, who will continue to lead the team; or the veteran quarterback Alex Smith who has been the helm of the team for five consecutive years, after returning from injury Regaining power; or is Colin Kapnik, who had high hopes after the second round of the draft, after a disappointing preseason, a strong rebound?

Thanks to the presence of the Chinese quarterback Lu Ke, the focus that was already highly anticipated has now attracted countless light. Like Tony Romo and Kurt Warner, Lu Ke's career in the league has made history in every step, and the discussion has always been high.

Now that the critical moment is coming, can Lu Ke continue to maintain his starting position? Or does the legendary experience come to an end temporarily, waiting for the next chance to rise?

Even as a bystander, people can't wait to rub their hands.

"Alix, definitely Alix."

"Agree, I don't see the need to choose rookie players. Whether it is Colin or Lu Ke, both of them are too young. Now 49 people need a veteran to integrate the team, otherwise their performance will be too ups and downs. A game can scare several heart attacks. "

"The only doubt is how did Alex recover from his injury. Last week's pass training, does any of you know how he is?"

...

The speech that lowered the voice, there was no loud noise, but it was buzzing, but all the words still penetrated into Jay Fox ’s ears, and the nervousness became more and more irritable. He just wanted to stand up and shut up those reporters.

However, the remaining reason still convinced Jay: This is their job. To shut up a reporter is to cancel the press conference. Therefore, Jay can only sit honestly in the original position, continue to take a deep breath, trying to calm down.

"What do you think?" A voice suddenly came from the side. Jay was startled and turned his head. Then he saw a kind face and laughed. "Sorry, it scared you. Next Is there anyone in the position? Can I sit down? "

"Of course." Jay said panicly. "What did you just say?"

"Brian, 'San Francisco Chronicle'." Brian Westbrook took the initiative to introduce himself, and Jay quickly said, "Jay, 'Los Angeles Times'."

Brian showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, "Roar, Times." For the West Coast, the "Los Angeles Times" is the largest newspaper. Although the "San Francisco Chronicle" is the second largest, the gap in influence is still relatively obvious. of.

As for the East Coast, the "New York Times" is a well-deserved leader, but beyond them, the "Washington Post", "Wall Street Journal" and other large newspapers are no less influential. Speaking of news media, the East Coast is not only the center of gravity of North America, but also the focus of the entire world.

When the "Times" was mentioned in North America, everyone knew that this specifically referred to the "New York Times"; but if it was limited to the West Coast area, then the "Times" refers specifically to the "Los Angeles Times", but, as opposed to the "New York Times" Than, the "Los Angeles Times" still can not be compared.

"Just the first year." Jay said modestly.

Brian shrugged and didn't continue to struggle. "I support Bambi." Jay's thought rhythm seems to be a bit slower than Brian's speed, the difference between rookie and veteran, not only appears on the football field, "I It means that today ’s starting quarterback battle, I support Bambi. How about you? "

"Bambi." Jay said without hesitation.

"Because he is your friend?" Brian said with a smile. "I know, you and Bambi are college classmates, and Logan and Marcus."

"UCLA." Jay nodded affirmatively, "Not only because of this, but because I know how focused Bambi is, and can even be described as terrifying. If you underestimate Babi's strength, you have to pay a lot of pain. cost."

"Just like the Seattle Seahawks?" Brian's example was so vivid that both of them laughed. Brian looked around the press conference hall, "However, we are still a minority. These people are empiricists, used to making judgments based on past experience, and also used to a fixed way of thinking about Asian players. Change and progress in three games. "

Therefore, they all believe that the 49ers in San Francisco will choose Alex Smith. Thirty-two teams in the entire league face the problem of choosing a veteran or a rookie-only three weeks of regular season data are used as a reference, then it is estimated that more than two-thirds will choose a veteran, or even four points Three.

The position of the quarterback is very special. There are too many factors that people need to consider comprehensively. Even Payton Manning was a terrible rookie season.

"Come!" The door on the left was pushed open during the conversation, and Jim Hubble appeared in front of the reporters, accompanied by several staff members.

In an instant, all the reporters began to move, quickly found their position, turbulent and noisy, but neat and orderly, sat down very quickly, a pair of hot eyes full of expectations projected towards Jim, Just like a laser eye, the hot temperature caused the air to start to burn slowly.

"Thank you reporters for coming to the team's press conference." Jim didn't make any rhetoric and went directly to the theme. "Today's theme is the starting quarterback. The team is now at a very important moment. After consultation and discussion with the coaching staff After discussion, we also came to a conclusion after reviewing the performance during training in the past. "

After a short pause, Jim glanced around, only to find that all the reporters in the audience were holding their breath—

Many reporters are sitting behind their laptops, their hands are quickly tapping on the keyboard, editing the news, only preparing to fill out the name of the starting quarterback, and then posting the news on Twitter and the website as soon as possible , Followed by in-depth interviews to prepare detailed press releases. But at this time, the hands of these reporters also stopped, seemingly caught in the vortex of time.

Such a scene is a little funny.

"In this week's game, the San Francisco 49ers' starting quarterback ..." Jim didn't deliberately tease the reporter, and then said, "Lu Ke will continue to serve."

Silence, silence, dullness, the sound of time flowing became very clear, everyone held their breath, the heart seemed to stop beating for a while, and then ... a "booming" muffled sound, fiercely in the ear Exploded, in an instant, everyone recovered, realizing what just happened, and the blockbuster news appeared like this!

Before Jim's voice fell, the question sounded like a catharsis:

"What's the specific reason?"

"Has Alex Smith's injury not fully recovered yet?"

"Is it too risky to choose Lu Ke as the starting quarterback?"

"Has the team been considered comprehensively?"

"What does Alex Smith think about this?"

"What is the atmosphere inside the team now?"

"Is the team making a choice based on the victory of the last three games?"

...

There were countless questions in the bustle, and they were swarming at the same time. This momentum was even more exaggerated than when the 49ers in San Francisco announced that Lu Ke would serve as the starting quarterback before the first week of the regular season.

Because, at that time, there was no choice, Alex Smith and Colin Kapnik were injured one after another, and Lu Ke was driven off by the duck; but today it is an active choice. The weight of the news is naturally quite different.

Brian and Jay exchanged a gaze, and at the same time showed a tacit smile.
