Chapter 464: The Only Superstar
Sitting in rows, eating fruit; one for you, one for me; we are all good friends.
On the stage, there was lively chatting, laughter, and harmony, once again showing the friendship between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs. The atmosphere couldn't be more cheerful.
For the league, everything cannot be more perfect. Enemies on the court and friends off the court, this is the public relations image the league is looking forward to seeing.
For journalists, however, this was a bit of a letdown.
Although they are not looking forward to the wonderful scene of fists and kicks and shouting curses between the two parties - if there is, they also raise their hands and feet to welcome; but at least there should be some smell of gunpowder, rather than like a sorority afternoon tea, drinking with orchid fingers. Sitting there over afternoon tea complimenting each other.
this! too! boring! Got it!
It's a pity that the league refused to give reporters a chance. If anyone tried to ruin the atmosphere, the security guards who were watching eagerly would probably be distracted by the unrest immediately to ensure that there would be absolutely no trouble on the official media day.
Until the end——
"May I ask, do the Philadelphia Eagles believe they can reach the top and win the championship?"
A question was thrown out.
The air was slightly quiet.
The security guard at the scene was a little hesitant. Such a question did not seem to be a serious question; and the reporter's questioning method did not seem to be particularly sharp.
After hesitating back and forth, he quietly acquiesced to this issue.
Brush brush brush.
The Kansas City Chiefs players all looked to the right, the Philadelphia Eagles players looked at each other, and finally all eyes were focused on Peterson.
Naturally, the head coach still needs to respond.
But he never expected that without warning, a figure stood up.
“Philadelphia is the champ!”
It's Ertz.
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz showed faith and domineering, raising his hands upright and shouting heartily, causing thousands of waves with one stone.
Wow, wow.
Below, Philadelphia reporters immediately applauded Ertz's courage.
The atmosphere finally became lively.
Then.
Ertz did not wait for Peterson to react, and boldly turned his head to the left, looking at Reid with provocation, and launched a head-on challenge.
Brush brush brush.
The entire audience turned their attention and looked at the Kansas Chiefs with eager eyes. Their eyes were filled with excitement, waiting for the show to begin.
Where's Reed?
Reed's expression didn't change at all, it was still the same as usual, like an enlightened monk, even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, he remained calm.
That is at this time.
A fist stretched out, and it was Levi——
"Philadelphia is the champion."
Levi said.
Under the astonished eyes of the audience, Levi clenched his fists heavily and repeated it seriously.
"Philadelphia is the champion."
this……
Why does it feel weird?
Obviously, Ertz had the same idea. He looked Levi up and down with a constipated expression, and he was not sure whether he should be angry for a moment.
The air was surging slightly, and the reporter couldn't help but break the silence.
"Levi, don't you believe that the Kansas City Chiefs can win the championship?"
In an instant, one could clearly feel the surging air in the whole place. The bustling and scorching gaze was directed towards Levi like a midsummer rainstorm, and one could feel the heat on the surface of his skin.
Not to mention Levi, Peterson and the others can also feel the change in the atmosphere——
Level, obviously different. When facing Levi and facing other people, the alert level of the reporters on the scene was different, and it was as if they could feel the cruise missiles being ready in an instant.
Houston couldn't stand it anymore. He sat up straight and was about to scold the reporter, but he was still half a step too slow.
Levi had already taken the lead.
The rookie faced the reporter with a calm and calm face, and even had a smile on his lips.
"No, I'm not confident. But we will win."
this……
here we go again. That classic response appears again.
But this time, the reporter did not let Levi go. "What does this sentence mean? It is inconsistent and does not make sense."
Levi still kept his smile and shrugged lightly, "Sorry, my English is not good enough."
reporter:……
Roll your eyes!
Come on, they didn't mean that, okay?
It is now conceivable that the majority of netizens may want to criticize reporters for "racial discrimination", "disdain for Levi's language ability", and "reporters working together to besiege Asian players".
No, this is not good. The image of journalists has plummeted to the bottom.
However, Levi did not give reporters any room to explain and showed a big smile again.
"That's literally what it means."
"Philadelphia is the champ. We don't have confidence. But we're going to win."
The words are simple and the eyes are clear.
But here's the problem, even though Levi's eyes are so clear, they reveal a hint of madness.
puff.
The people at the scene didn’t know who was the first to break the news. Seeing a group of reporters standing in front of Li Wei, they could no longer hold back and burst into laughter.
Then, the laughter could no longer be controlled and spread mightily.
Not only the reporters, but also Fowles smiled with his head down, and even Peterson was smiling.
Peterson ignored the reporters and took the initiative to stand up and gave Levi a hug. Now, the reporters couldn't continue to fan the flames. The two teams had ended the group interview on their own, leaving Ertz alone. There, a championship declaration stuck in my throat——
It doesn’t matter if you shout, it doesn’t matter if you don’t shout,
Finally, a reporter noticed that when Ertz left the group interview stage, his face was clouded, and he had a low-pressure look that kept strangers away.
However, after a short break to adjust, when Ertz reappeared in front of his wooden stand and was interviewed, the smile had returned to his lips.
Regarding the situation just now, Ertz said that he was just focusing on the game and winning. "This is the Super Bowl, and I am ready to give everything."
However.
When Levi appeared on the stage, the whole place was turbulent. Visibly, the entire Bank of America Stadium crowd converged in the same direction and at the same location from all directions, surrounding Levi on three levels inside and three outside. The corners of Ertz's mouth still twitched uncontrollably.
Not only Asian reporters, but reporters from almost all over the world gathered around Levi without exception.
The funniest thing is that the neon reporter who had been waiting next to Levi's stage for a long time was actually squeezed out by the crowd because of his short stature. He stood there with his head full of questions and despair, puzzled. Why did you become an outsider?
Generally speaking, if there are thirty reporters around a stage, it will be very busy; but at this moment, there are at least three reporters gathered around Li Wei, and it is not just a hundred people. A rough look shows that there are at least two hundred or more people. , the air continues to heat up and boil.
The whole place, the only one.
Indeed, neither the Philadelphia Eagles nor the Kansas City Chiefs have top stars. Even the "Island King" Revis is far from the top of the league. Even the two head coaches have more stars. , the players’ topicality and appeal are less than expected.
However, it is precisely because of this that Levi became successful.
unique. Supreme.
In this way, Levi became the only superstar in the 52nd Super Bowl, easily stealing the focus of the audience, and even without the help of the league, the heat wave had already detonated in Minneapolis.
