American winner takes all

Chapter 35
Ethan came to the three of them and pretended to be surprised and asked them how they met.

"Boy, you are very lucky this time. You have also met Rice's mother. She came to the stadium just now. She is very optimistic about your potential and wants to be your sports agent to help you improve your rugby career. development," Mia explained.

In fact, the plan proposed by Ethan at that time was more bold. It seemed that Lisa chose a compromise plan at the last moment.

Ethan looked at Catherine at this time.

"What do you think?"

"I think... this is good, why don't you agree?" For the sake of Ethan's future, Catherine did not resist.

·
"Agent? This is so abnormal, Ethan, I must admit that you are very talented, but you are not yet a star, let alone have a sports agent. If all impossibilities are ruled out, then even if the answer is outrageous, it is The truth." Ford stroked his chin and read out Sherlock Holmes' classic lines.

"Rice's mother is single! And she is very rich. She must be attracted to you." Flea slapped her forehead.

"Ethan, it's time to use your strengths, as long as it doesn't affect your competitive state." Thomas patted Ethan's shoulder meaningfully and took a look at the orange protrusion on Ethan's jersey.

In Thomas' view, this is the real reason why Rice's mother took a liking to Ethan. Ethan's talent is not only on the court, but also off the court.

"Work hard, young man. As long as you make a name for yourself and have business resources to support you, it will be difficult not to make money," Thomas reminded.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, why haven't I encountered such a good thing..." Ford shook his head and sighed.

He likes this type of woman the most. In his opinion, Rice's mother can definitely be used as a fantasy object before falling asleep at night, and she is so rich.

Why did Ethan happen to meet him?
Maybe this is the difference between people.

Other team members also expressed similar sighs, but only those on the team who had a closer relationship with Rice looked embarrassed.

If these two people were... wouldn't Rice have an extra father? What's even more outrageous is that this "father" is one year younger than Rice.

If word gets out, Rice will be laughed at for the rest of his life, right?
Here, Ethan shook his head and rejected these people's speculations with righteous words, and said: "I am wholeheartedly dedicated to the cause of rugby, and you think too badly of me."

These team members all saw it with their own eyes. It was Lisa who took the initiative to find Mia, and it had nothing to do with her.

Several of Rice's friends in the team discussed it and finally decided not to inform Rice about the matter. It might just be a simple agency contract. Besides, it was still unknown whether Rice could come back. No one would take the initiative to touch this issue. .As for what happened today, just pretend you didn’t see anything.

After Ethan's arrangement, now he has gained both favor and face, and in the end he has to act cheaply, which is really a win.

After Ethan changed his clothes, he did not choose to go back by car with the group, but chose to leave early alone.Lisa is going to invite Mia, Katherine and herself to dinner to celebrate the signing.

When they walked out of the stadium, they saw three people chatting with a man. The man was holding a notebook, asking questions, and writing information in a shorthand notebook.

"He's out." Mia waved to Ethan.

"Hello, I'm a reporter for the sports section of the Los Angeles Times. You can call me Jim. I noticed your wonderful performance in the last game through your school newspaper. You also impressed me in this game. I can tell you Do a quick interview?" Jim said.

"Friends of Coach Thomas?"

"Yes, I have known him for many years. Not long ago, I heard that you completed a reversal in the first game as a temporary quarterback, so I wanted to write a battle report on this theme..."

"But I changed my mind temporarily. Your performance today really impressed me, especially your last rushing performance. You are already a very good running back at the high school level. I want to know more about your past experience." Jim road.

After watching this game, Ethan's performance directly caused him to change the focus of his report, from the original report on the game to a special report on "Ethan O'Connor".I happened to meet Ethan's family just now, so I took the opportunity to inquire about Ethan's family situation.

After hearing that Ethan had never touched football before, he vaguely felt that Ethan O'Connor was a rare talent.

Nothing is more exciting than a rising super star, and this is also the audience's favorite scene.He had a feeling this would be a big hit feature.

"I'm afraid the detailed interview will last for several hours. Let's do this, reporter Jim, we are just going to have dinner, so you can come with us. By interviewing in this way, Ethan will be more relaxed, and your report will be closer to the truth. Lisa suggested at this time.

"That's right. How about dining together?" Ethan also said.

If Lisa hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have been able to remember. Lisa had obviously already played an role in her area of ​​expertise.

Reporter Jim didn't put off too much, and the five of them got into Lisa's Stretch Lincoln Limousine.It is worth mentioning that the extended Lincoln is not an original factory car, but a modified one based on the Lincoln City or Lincoln Continental.

The history of the long sedan can be traced back to 1928, when a car modification company called Armbruster built the first stretch sedan in Arkansas. This model gradually became popular in the 90s and became the exclusive transportation of the rich, famous and political figures. tool.Later...it became synonymous with wedding cars.

John F. Kennedy once rode in a stretch model modified from a 61 Lincoln Continental.Unfortunately, it was on this car that he was knocked into the sky.

Lisa's car is not too exaggerated. The length of the vehicle is less than ten meters. It retains the original four-door design and only has six seats inside. It is a short and compact among the extended Lincolns.

On the way, Ethan began to take questions without revealing his special abilities.

The destination is an Italian restaurant called Angelini Osteria on the east side of Pan Pacific Park, facing the street on Beverly Road.

It can't be called very high-end. There is a Michelin star sign hanging at the door, and the store is not large. It is already full at the moment, and it seems to be quite popular.

I don’t know what Lisa said when she went up, but the owner set up a table outside and the five of them sat down and ordered their dishes.Ethan is naturally a mess of all kinds of food, and one person can eat as much as four people combined.

Deep fried flowers, lobster salad, roasted bone marrow with handmade pasta, tiramisu, penne, steak, lasagna, pizza, grilled octopus, sea salt sea bass...

During the interview while eating, Ethan deliberately mentioned his school and coach.

"I came into the team at a very special time. If it weren't for the additional approval of Coach Thomas, I would not have realized my talent on the football field. I also want to sincerely thank BHHS, the school's large investment in the football team, allowing me to I don’t have any worries anymore. In fact, all the conditions of BHHS are very good..."

After saying this, Ethan additionally requested that this passage be presented exactly as it was.

Halfway through the meal, the chef and restaurant owner personally came out and asked several people whether tonight's dishes were delicious.

After he left, Lisa explained: "The chef of the restaurant, Gino Angelini, worked at the Marriott Hotel before and had the idea of ​​opening his own restaurant. I liked this kind of taste better, so I invested in his restaurant."

He spoke easily and freely, revealing considerable strength inside and outside his words.

Jim remained calm on the surface, but was a little shocked inside.

For a high school player to have such a successful agent, his starting point is much higher than others.

With this kind of resource blessing, it will not be any worse no matter what. Just like celebrities need to have a good relationship with the media, the media also needs to have a good relationship with the stars. This is essentially a symbiosis.

So Jim nodded immediately: "I will express my gratitude to the school and the coach exactly as they are."

"By the way, I have another request. I want to use the platform of the Los Angeles Times sports page to challenge Santa Ana, the strongest football high school in Southern California! In the next playoffs, I look forward to playing with Santa Ana High School. When we meet in the finals, I will personally lead BHHS to defeat Santa Ana and represent the Southern California region in the CIF California finals." Ethan suddenly said.

"Ethan, you are too loud." Catherine immediately shook her head. She felt that Ethan had just started playing rugby, and no matter how talented he was, he still had to learn to be humble.

Lisa nodded: "I support an open declaration of war against Santa Anna."

Rather than saying that Ethan said this based on his own talent, it is better to say that the people need these "grandstanding" and "astonishing" arguments.

Objectively speaking, high school football is indeed not as attractive as the NCAA and NFL.Reporter Jim was naturally willing to write this.

But this is a double-edged sword for Ethan.

Just like a game of cards, the more fame chips you invest, the more fame you will get in return.vice versa.

But Ethan has nothing to be afraid of now. He is basically a newcomer, so it doesn’t matter if he loses.

And if he wins, he will become completely famous!

This porcelain must be touched.

He was going to crush Southern California's regional hegemons.
