Chapter 113 The Invisible Boss
Donald Yu looked at Levi in front of him, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
This is one of the reasons why Levi always remains calm even in the face of bombast.
Moreover, throughout the entire conversation, the two people had been secretly competing for the initiative. He thought he had taken control of the situation, but the seemingly passive Levi was not involved in his rhythm and still acted according to his own rhythm. This is the second point.
Just one meeting has already left a deep impression.
Donald Yu couldn't help but further confirm his judgment on Levi.
However, the more this happens, the more you need to be calm and patient, otherwise if you don't pay attention, you may lose everything.
Faced with Levi's question, Donald Yu calmed down and showed a smile.
"My confidence does not come from me, but from you."
"I watched all of your game tape, including spring training camp warm-ups and intrasquad games, more than once."
"I can see your youth, your growth, and your wisdom. Obviously, for you, rugby is not just a simple physical confrontation, right?"
Levi did not answer, but looked curiously into the eyes of the gray gentleman in front of him, waiting for an answer.
"Chess game."
Donald Yu gave an answer, which brought a smile to Levi's eyes.
"Rugby requires layout, gaming, and patience. Confrontation is the cornerstone of everything, but what really determines victory or defeat is the wisdom of the brain."
"It's like a chess game, it's like a battlefield."
"Now, you have only been exposed to rugby for six months, and you absorb knowledge quickly like a sponge and complete the transformation. What about six months later?"
"I'm very much looking forward to it."
There is no doubt that the gray-haired gentleman in front of him is sincere, but also cunning——
Levi guessed that he should have planned all aspects of today's meeting and simulated the drill in his mind to ensure that everything was perfect.
In other words, the effects in front of you are all planned.
If that's the case, then you have to admire the other party's thorough preparation, right?
That is, suddenly, without warning, Levi had an idea and threw it out, disrupting both his own and the other party's plans.
"So, do you recommend that I stay with the Crimson Tide for another year or go pro through the draft?"
Even Li Wei himself had not seriously considered the issue for the time being, but now he was throwing it out.
At first glance, Donald Yu was also very surprised.
But an accident was an accident, and he immediately calmed down and gave the answer simply and neatly, "Turn into a career."
Levi was slightly surprised.
What surprised me was not the other party's reply, that the agent definitely wanted the player to turn professional; but the firmness of his attitude, which vaguely revealed his iron fist.
"There are two reasons."
"First, the NCAA is a non-profit event. Players don't get a penny from playing here, but the NCAA's broadcast revenue is no less than that of the NFL. Whose pocket does that revenue go into?"
"Alabama is a public university, so the situation is slightly better. Shaban is also a good coach. They will sincerely think about your future, but for those private universities, the situation is not that simple."
Click here, it means a lot.
"Second, the transition from the NCAA to the NFL does require a transition period. More than one player hits the rookie wall. It is no exaggeration to say that in the sport of football, professional events and college events are two kinds of competitions."
"Here, there is no need to rush to persuade players to stay in the NCAA and continue to play. It makes sense to play until their junior year or even their senior or fifth year, because they really need time and space to grow, otherwise they will not be able to enter the professional league. The devastation was crushed and disappeared in a blink of an eye.”
"But. You are different."
"I think you have fully adapted to the intensity of the NCAA. Even if you stay here for another season, there will be little room for growth left for you. It is better to move up a level, open the door to a new world, and enter the professional league to challenge higher difficulties. , but it can bring you more growth.”
The words, at this point, the meaning is actually very clear and clear——
Donald Yu noticed the light in Levi's eyes. He knew that his next words had been seen through by Levi, but he still did not dodge and continued with a smile, "Because I believe in you."
Levi's face was filled with a "Sure enough" expression. Donald Yu spread his hands, accepting any looking eyes openly, waiting for Levi's response to see if his answer was satisfactory.
However, Levi was not prepared to give any evaluation, let alone words, even his expression was flawless, "Has anyone ever said that you are very suitable for selling Amway?"
Donald Yu was stunned, "Amway?"
Obviously, this gray-haired gentleman still needs to brush up on popular knowledge.
Levi has no plans to stay any longer, and he already knows what he needs to know——
Each of them has a mouth to speak, and these agents are all old foxes with bright tongues. Even if the gentleman in front of him finds another way to open up the situation, in essence, he is still an agent.
Horsepower can be seen from afar, and people's hearts can be seen from time to time.
Next, time will give the answer.
"Goodbye, Mr. Yu." This sentence is in Chinese, standard Chinese.
Donald Yu was unprepared, the conversation ended abruptly, Levi pulled away, and the initiative returned to Levi's hands, and the plan was disrupted.
However, Donald Yu calmed down and asked, "Is this the standard pronunciation of my last name? Can you teach me?"
"Remain."
"You."
"Lao Yu."
"Old woman? Wait, why is there an extra syllable in front of it?"
"Goodbye, Lao Yu."
Levi's footsteps did not stop, and he gradually moved away, continued to retreat, and then disappeared at the door of the dormitory, leaving Donald Yu standing alone.
He thought that he had planned all the plans. When Li Wei stopped, everything went according to his plan. However, he did not expect that Li Wei would disrupt the chessboard at the last moment.
But not only was he not depressed, he became even more excited——
That kid is smarter than he thought, and things are getting more and more interesting.
And what about Levi?
After turning a corner and confirming that his view had been blocked, Levi took out his cell phone and asked for help on the search engine.
Forgive Levi, he really knows very little about rugby. Even the superstars who are now well-known are nothing special in his eyes, let alone the agents hidden behind the players?
Levi thought that for a Chinese agent to work hard in the field of rugby, he would either be unknown or famous.
However, the search results were a little surprising.
Donald Yu is indeed a professional rugby agent, and he registered his own agency in 1999, but he is not a nobody, nor does he seem to be a well-known name in the industry. He feels like he is neither up to nor down. , which does not match the impression in Li Wei's mind.
