Chapter 712 Facing the Mistake
Encirclement, attack, and entanglement.
The reporters' incessant behavior was actually a kind of teasing, ridicule, and ridicule, because they knew that the players and coaches could only condemn Hunter, but they could never directly accuse the team management.
The pursuit of these questions is not for answers, but a performance of performance art. Silence and embarrassment without answers are the best answers.
A kind of top-down uneasiness and avoidance creates invisible pressure.
However……
Unexpectedly, the reporters actually got the answer.
Moreover, he is also the core figure of the Kansas Chiefs.
Wait, Levi has gone crazy?
Levi actually accused the team of making a mistake, a wrong judgment and a wrong choice?
Was it a mistake for the Kansas City Chiefs to downplay the Hunter incident in February?
So, this is pointing the finger at Vicki? Or team owner Clark Hunter? Or is it to blame the team for pushing out president Donovan and the person involved, Hunter, as a shield?
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
It was such a short sentence, so unexpected, so shocking, so direct and so sharp that one or two reporters in the audience were so excited that they had a cerebral hemorrhage and almost fainted.
Although the reporters didn’t know what kind of medicine Levi had taken by mistake, the more such crazy behavior, the better. They raised their hands and feet to welcome it.
Okay?
However, Li Wei, who was at the center of his gaze, seemed particularly calm.
"Mistakes are mistakes."
"However, compared with past mistakes, we should face up to the subsequent responses and solutions, because we cannot turn back time, but we can seize the present and change the future."
"We admit our mistakes bravely and frankly, not just to express our apologies and regrets; we also need to face up to the problem and avoid making the same mistakes in the future."
"So, we can sit here and point fingers at each other and see whose fault it is; or we can sit here and bravely discuss what we should do to prevent the same mistakes from happening again."
"The players. The teams. The league. We are all an integral part of it. And also the media, you play an important role as well."
"How about, does anyone want to start a discussion with me?"
After saying that, the smile on the corner of his mouth rose——
calm. sincere. sincere. major.
This is the real trump card.
The previous ridicules, jokes, the madness and sharpness were all just foreshadowing. Just when the reporters thought that Levi was out of his mind and attacked the team management, they quickly moved a small bench and prepared to watch the show, but there was a twist. The reporters were completely exposed to the muzzle of the gun.
As Levy said, more than a simple apology, the discussion this incident sparked and the focus on violence against players around the league is what matters.
Similarly, as Levi said, outside of players, teams and leagues, the media, which has been fanning the flames all year round, cannot shirk responsibility casually.
This is a serious problem, this is a profound problem. Just relying on the strength of one player or one team cannot reverse the overall pattern. If reporters are still nagging at the Kansas Chiefs, they are pretending to be confused. , deliberately provocative and deliberately causing trouble.
Instead of chattering here like gossip paparazzi trying to create hot spots and stunts, it is better to awaken the professional ethics and social responsibility of the news media and truly come together to find solutions to problems or ways to alleviate them.
This is the point.
In a few words, a difficult problem was solved in Li Wei's hands——
They clearly did not shirk responsibility for the Kansas Chiefs but still shifted the focus. They clearly did not defend the Kansas Chiefs but successfully created a positive image.
Not to mention involving all the media in it, deceiving them severely, openly and secretly mocking the media for their endless chatter and pursuit.
Kill several birds with one stone. High, really high!
The whole audience was stunned.
The smiles of the melon-eaters froze at the corners of their mouths.
Finally, this nagging problem ended in Levi's hands, and no reporters asked again; and that's not all.
Including the coaching staff, including the team management, once again looked at Levi with special eyes. The focus was on Levi's tact to resolve the crisis, and even more on the fact that when the team encountered difficulties, Levi showed leadership qualities to get out of the predicament——
The fans have found their backbone.
In the past three or four days, the Kansas City Chiefs have been like a street rat on social networks. Because of Hunter, because of the team's indifference, and because of the old and new hatred accumulated in the past two seasons, the team has become the target of public criticism. You can say any ugly words.
There are even all kinds of sensational conspiracy theories flying around.
For example, when the TMZ news broke, was there someone behind it?
For example, who was behind the cover-up of the Hunter incident in February?
For example, did the league deliberately sacrifice Hunter, a vocal supporter of Bell, to quell the running back debate?
And so on and so forth, the more they say, the more outrageous and exaggerated they become.
Although the fans tried their best to fight back, they ultimately lacked the confidence because they themselves did not agree with the team's understatement, which led to low morale in the entire city and was deeply shrouded in gloom.
Until now.
Levi's words and Levi's gesture pointed the way like a beacon.
Controversies will not be simply settled; prejudices will not disappear for no reason. But at least they can insist on focusing on themselves.
Then, let actions speak for themselves.
Kansas City finally regained its vitality, the gloom gradually dissipated, and it found its center of gravity amidst the overwhelming negative atmosphere on social networks——
Both feet returned to the ground.
This is the power of leadership.
This is not the first time that Levi has come forward for the second time, but this time his attitude and belief in the whirlpool of controversy have firmly united the team and the city.
Originally, the seemingly smooth season of the Kansas City Chiefs was quietly hidden with ups and downs. Even though a playoff spot was confirmed three weeks in advance, the chasing opponents still made the playoff situation full of variables; now it is even worse, the team He directly lost his second running back, and the game with the Los Angeles Chargers was right in front of him, leaving almost no time for the team to adjust. Everything seemed chaotic and cramped.
However, no matter what, Levi still found the center of gravity and focus for the team, temporarily letting the reporters retreat, and the team was able to return to the game.
"Rookie, how do you do it? Not affected by negative news at all?"
When the Kansas City Chiefs arrived at StubHub Stadium in Los Angeles to prepare for the venue, a large number of Chiefs fans gathered at the scene to support the players, someone in the crowd asked.
Levi shrugged slightly.
"Uninstall all social networking apps. It works great for the team, you should try it too, the whole world is quiet."
After finishing speaking, Levi showed his neat white teeth and smiled broadly. He entered the stadium laughing and chatting with Mahomes and Kelsey.
Finally, the focus of attention can be focused on the playing field.
Los Angeles Chargers, this is a tough nut to crack.
