Dominate the Super Bowl

"Game-winner!"

"That was a game-winner!"

"The Kansas City Chiefs game-won against the New England Patriots, marching headfirst into the 2017 American League finals for the first time since 1993, also marking their return to the League finals since 1993."

"More importantly, this was a comeback from twenty-one points behind!"

"This was the first time in the history of the Kansas City Chiefs that they had completed a playoff victory by overcoming a deficit of more than ten points, defeating the defending champions, number one seed, and the most successful New England Patriots of the new century."

"Oh, God!"

"In the last season's Super Bowl showdown, the New England Patriots accomplished an epic twenty-five-point comeback to win the championship; this season, in the divisional round, they faced the most painful turnaround loss in the history of the New England Patriots team, losing the victory after leading by twenty-one points at halftime."

"Without a doubt, this game will go down in history!"

"Li Wei!"

"Running back number twenty-three, the rookie of the Kansas City Chiefs, the MVP of this game."

"111 rushing yards, 117 receiving yards, two touchdowns."

"Although I need to confirm the data, Li Wei should be the first running back since the millennium to break one hundred yards both in rushing and receiving in the playoff stage."

"The New England Patriots put on a historic performance in this game's offensive line, sacking the opponent's quarterback seven times, completely disorienting the Kansas City Chiefs' offensive, challenging both the rushing and receiving."@@novelbin@@

"But Li Wei rewrote the game, and Smith stood out."

"Smith, in such tough circumstances, for the first time in his playoff career, threw two forty-plus yards touchdown passes, snatching victory from the jaws of the New England Patriots."

"Wow."

"'The catch,' the buzzer-beating Wanfu Mary, Li Wei's one-handed catch touchdown against McCourty and Chung Family, completely altered history!"

The commentary was passionate and incessant.

Nantz's admiration and astonishment seemed endless, his cheeks flush as if drunk, his eyes sparkling with joy and happiness.

However.

Gillette Stadium plunged into despair.

Stunned eyes staring blankly at the field, a pervasive sense of dead, unsupported confusion even before they had time to feel angry or sad, they still couldn't believe it had really happened.

The New England Patriots lost.

And they lost to a dramatic final-play comeback.

While last season's Super Bowl overtime win brought insane joy; at this moment, facing the Wanfu Mary game-winner, the agony surged all the more.

In the VIP room, Goodell was all smiles, triumphant.

Li Wei, indeed, came through.

Such is the making of a hero, Goodell's choice to promote Li Wei was merely going with the flow, attempting to seize the opportunity to crack open the Asian market—

Li Wei wasn't so special; even if it had not been Li Wei, should another Asian player emerge in the future, Goodell would still offer the same resources and spotlight.

Alongside Li Wei, Goodell had his eye on several other players as well, rookie quarterback Watson, defensive tackle Donald, defensive end first pick Garrett, running back Bell, sophomore quarterbacks Wentz and Goff, etc., he also hoped they would burst onto the scene, filling the voids left by the retirement of Manning, the season-ending injury to Watt, and grow into league's new standard-bearers.

Ultimately though?

It was Li Wei who seized the opportunity.

Not just showcasing top-tier data during the regular season, but also under the intense scrutiny of the playoffs, he demonstrated the temperament of a superstar—

And continued to win.

Of course, defeating Brady and the New England Patriots was the icing on the cake; adding the Wanfu Mary and the one-handed catch made everything all the more interesting.

At this moment, social media had gone mad.

The GIF of "that catch" swept across the entire network like a volcanic eruption, including both Chinese and English platforms.

On Chinese platforms, Li Wei's topic tag had already exceeded two hundred million in real-time popularity, setting a new record in Football history, while the English platforms were not far behind, refreshing the history of social media platforms with a rate of twelve thousand messages per second.

The previous record was from the 2011 wild card game when Tim Tebow, after his overtime game-winning one-knee touchdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers, had set the peak record for social media platforms at nine thousand messages per second; now, it had been broken by Li Wei.

It was a truly phenomenal performance.

In the divisional round against the New England Patriots, this was Li Wei's opportunity, and he seized it firmly. From now on, "rookie vs. Goat" would be the most influential topic tag in the League; it was as simple as that.

Whether people liked it or not, Li Wei was now the new face of the NFL.

The door to the Asian market had been flung open.

Now Goodell had started to think about marketing promotions for the next season, even though there were still three weeks left in the 2017 season; but Goodell believed that the drama between Li Wei and Brady had just started.

Perhaps it was fate for Li Wei and Brady to clash.

Goodell genuinely admired Li Wei—

Young people should be just like this.

On the sidelines.

Brady was slightly startled; even though he had had a premonition when Li Wei made the Wanfu Mary catch, his heart still sank heavily.

Despite having been in professional games for so long, despite facing defeats at different times and in different contexts, the taste of losing was never pleasant.

Losing in such a way, to such an opponent, especially... Li Wei.

Looking up, Brady spotted Li Wei amid the bustling crowd.

He raised his arms high and dashed towards Buck on the field; the Kansas City Chiefs players all huddled together in delirious joy, embracing each other, scarcely believing their victory.

It was hard to imagine that this was the Kansas City Chiefs' first playoff winning streak in twenty-four years.

Brady: ...Shit.

Despite holding back and controlling himself, he still couldn't suppress it and eventually cursed; he could never get used to an opponent celebrating a victory on his turf.

He realized that nothing good ever happened when he encountered Li Wei.

Dammit!

But Brady had his pride—

After all, he had also been in the League for over a decade, and he knew that the whole world was watching his reaction now. He also knew that the media was waiting to fan the flames.

So, although he wanted to smash his helmet, although he wanted to harshly berate the offensive line, although he felt like punching Li Wei in the face, he still controlled himself.

He took a deep breath.

Then, with his head held high and a smile on his face, he entered the field.

First Smith, then Reed, Brady routinely shook hands with them after the game, completing the task in front of the live TV cameras.

Pausing his steps, Brady looked around.

Seeing Brady's movement, a TV crew immediately approached him with a big smile, gesturing in one direction.

"Li Wei is over there."

Brady, maintaining his smile, turned his head and gave the person a sharp glare: Thanks a lot, you're so smart. You go find Li Wei, your whole family can go find Li Wei, why the hell should I, Brady, look for Li Wei?
