In the dead of night, the moonlight is like water, and the quiet Seattle harbor seems to be no longer able to catch people, the sea light and gentle lapping against the hull of the ship, making a gentle wave sound, like a mother's lullaby, let people slowly fall asleep, and the whole world wanders in a soft breeze.

"Jingle bells, jingle bells".

A crisp phone call broke the silence, surging in the waves, not abrupt, but suddenly realized that there were still people in the port.

The telephone rang and was quiet for a moment, and then a bright yellow light lit up, and before I had time to think about it, the halo around the light expanded and spread, and one after another the lights were lit, and then the small area was lit up.

It turned out to be a private yacht.

"Come out, come out, all come out!" A loud voice resounded throughout the yacht, constantly shouting, "Surprise event canceled, canceled." Everyone can come out! Inform the people downstairs in the cabin and on the deck outside that the event has been cancelled, so come out and don't hide. ”

"What's going on?"

"What happened?"

"What happened?"

"Can anyone explain?"

"The end? What is the end? ”

The sound of chirping became more and more noisy and noisy, and the originally empty yacht was bustling with twenty or thirty people dressed up, men and women were not lively, but all the faces were confused and puzzled, and no answers could be obtained from each other's inquiries and discussions.

"Charles! What the hell is going on? Could it be that Bambi had an accident there? Tony Romo was a hospitable person and a little impatient, but after all, he couldn't hold back, so he rushed over and asked the person in charge of the yacht, his face a little anxious.

Charles-Haus could perceive all eyes projected towards him, he could only signal everyone to be quiet for a while, and then explained in a loud voice, "I don't know the specific situation, the call just now was Ms. Indra's first secretary, he just said that Ms. Indra and Lu Ke decided to take a private jet back to San Francisco, and the yacht's welcome party was canceled, so ...... We can disband. ”

"What?"

"That's it?"

"Disbanded?"

The scene was bustling with discussion again, and it seemed that he still refused to believe in such a result, not angry, but more puzzled, and the question marks in his head could not be answered, but even if he wanted to do something, he didn't know where to start, and then he fell into a state of confusion.

Tony Romo cast his gaze at JJ Watt as he approached him, with a wry smile, and then patted Watt's chest, "You expected that?" ”

Compared to the surprise and surprise of the others, Watt looked very calm, with a relaxed smile on his face, "No, how could I have expected that. Let's just say, I'm not surprised, it's very much like his choice. ”

Even Charles followed suit, his face full of curiosity.

"You mean, Bambi rejected Ms. Indra's offer of a yacht party? But...... Why? Romo seemed incomprehensible, and the confusion was even greater. Needless to say, who could turn down an invitation from the CEO of PepsiCo? Even if you don't sign a contract with Pepsi, there's no need to refuse a yacht party, is there?

Watt shrugged, "I don't know either. Looking at the questioning eyes cast by Romo, he couldn't help but wave his hand again and again to emphasize his innocence, "I'm serious, how can I know that Bambi's thoughts are really ...... Elusive. ”

Romo nodded in agreement.

But Charles couldn't understand, "Why?" ”

"I just don't think it's a surprise that Bambi made the choice, it's very much in his style, isn't it?" Watt just reasoned backwards from the results, "You see, everyone thinks Indra's invitation can't be refused, and Indra arranges a welcome party in advance on a private yacht, but Bambi refuses, disrupting Indra's plans. I think it's very Bambi. ”

Luo Mo thought about it seriously, and laughed helplessly, "I can't refute it." ”

Charles's doubts became more and more, "You mean, Bambi, uh, Lu Ke did it on purpose?" ”

"No, no, no." Watt waved his hand repeatedly, he didn't want Lu Ke to offend Pepsi, "I mean, Bambi's choices are always unexpected, just like his performance on the court, his way of thinking and his head circuits are different from most of us, which makes him so different, doesn't it?" ”

Charles nodded in agreement.

Watt secretly wiped his sweat in his heart, and exchanged glances with Romer: he was almost about to pit Lu Ke.

"So, you mean, Lu Ke is not angry, or is he angry or something, and everything is fine?" Charles was still a little worried.

Romo interjected and asked, "Does he need to be angry?" ”

One sentence silenced Charles, and he didn't continue to ask questions after all.

Romo gave Watt a "reassured" look, then continued, "Honestly, Bambi's choice is indeed ...... It's unpredictable, but Indra can't be underestimated, do you think, who will win when they collide? ”

"Haha, they are not fighting, they don't need to decide the winner, but cooperation, cooperation! So I guess, no matter what the outcome, Bambi is the winner? Watt raised his final note, a little uncertain.

Romo laughed heartily and nodded in agreement, "That's why Bambi was able to get Pepsi sponsorship, and we just invited guests." ”

It was obvious that Charles's expression relaxed, and Romo and Watt exchanged glances again: they had done their best, and the rest was up to Lu Ke himself.

Tonight, in order to persuade Lu Ke to sign a cooperation, Pepsi arranged a surprise party on a private yacht in advance, not only inviting several "Victoria's Secret" models to sit - in case Lu Ke brought Candace to attend; At the same time, Romo and Watt were also invited, hoping to make Lu Ke feel close and familiar; In addition, the guest lineup also includes Silicon Valley technology upstarts, Wall Street financial figures, and second-tier Hollywood actors, etc., all of which show the "sincerity" of Pepsi -

While ensuring that the guest lineup is of sufficient quality, it is also possible to combine Lu Ke and Pepsi, and at the same time, it is necessary to avoid making Lu Ke feel uncomfortable by exerting too much force, which is the real highest treatment.

To be precise, this is a "trap", a happy and gentle trap, hoping to make Lu Ke nod and agree to Pepsi's cooperation agreement in one fell swoop.

Indra made arrangements on the private yacht early, just waiting for Lu Ke to appear, but she didn't expect that the actor's direct absence disrupted the plan, and all the advance layouts were all put into flow, Indra and Lu Ke returned to the same running line, and now Indra wants to persuade Lu Ke to rely on external forces.

However, the impact should be limited, this only disrupted Indra's original plan, but it could not disturb Indra's thoughts, Indra is the real key to convincing Lu Ke.

……

Lu Ke swore that he really, really didn't know that the yacht party was an "ambush". He can guess that the yacht party is also a celebration party, and then he can make more high-class people and open his eyes, and then Indra makes full use of the opportunity to convince Lu Ke to sign a contract with Pepsi; But he didn't think it was a good idea, and he preferred to return to the Cindera Stadium with his teammates and celebrate with the nine.

In this regard, Lech is supportive - at least neutral, otherwise, Lech will inform Lu Ke in advance, at least there will be some hints.

Since Lech didn't say much, it also meant that he didn't mind Lu Ke rejecting Indra.

Few people will reject Indra, and few people will be able to reject Indra, but that doesn't mean that no one won't do it. What's more, even if it does, it doesn't hurt, because the object of discussion now is Lu Ke-

Compared with the improvement of Lu Ke's status and commercial value in the industry, the most important thing is Lu Ke's expression and attitude, which shows the player's leadership temperament and personality charm from the inside out, not only not offended, but also makes Indra feel humorous and humble and polite.

Now Indra can vaguely understand the reason why the San Francisco 49ers have really been reborn, the locker room leader is re-giving the whole team a different life with his own style, even at the peak of his career, still maintaining a clear and cool head, and standing with the fans at all times, which is definitely not something ordinary people can do; At the same time, Indra can also vaguely understand the reason why Lech rejected Pepsi last year, Lu Ke is indeed not a casual professional player.

Of course, this is not to say that the superstars that Pepsi is cooperating with are "casual", but because the edges and personalities of Lu Ke are too distinct, drowning in Pepsi's superstar lineup, they can't play a real role, which is a loss for Lu Ke and Pepsi-

After all, the point of Pepsi signing a superstar is to boost sales, and if there is no way to make full use of the superstar aura in exchange for more benefits, they don't need to go to such a big time, right?

In a short period of time, the thoughts in Indra's mind began to surge, and more ideas and strategies were conceived in an instant, which further strengthened Indra's idea of signing Lu Ke before Coca-Cola. Compared with the market value, the value of brand culture and image is more attractive.

Indra began to look forward to the next airtime conversation.

Similarly, Lu Ke is also vaguely looking forward to it, because this is the first time he has ever taken a private jet, a scene that can only be seen in 007 movies before, or the exclusive use of rumored riches, and now he can actually experience it himself? Lu Ke couldn't suppress his anticipation.
