Chapter 950: 949 Visionary

Calm, composed, confident.

Li Wei slightly nodded his head, “Of course, I’m looking forward to a record-breaking contract. More importantly, I’m looking forward to seeing the sincerity from the team.”

Previously, Li Wei had already expressed his beliefs and goals to Veach—

His patience and focus are not due to being content, but because of his ambition.

In fact, from Li Wei’s perspective, Veach choosing to negotiate his contract during this offseason was itself part of a strategy.

Before, when Hunter was still with the team, he stirred things up inside, attempting to negotiate an early extension. Based on Veach’s attitude at that time, it was clear he wasn’t planning to talk contract extensions with a second-year running back.

However, a lot has changed since then, including Hunter’s departure, the team’s title defense, and the glory of a regular-season MVP award.

Veach realized that if he waited until after Li Wei’s third year to discuss an extension, the leverage in Li Wei’s hands could increase significantly. By then, the Kansas City Chiefs would find themselves in a real tight spot—

On the one hand, they’d need to meet Li Wei’s expectations and satisfy the fans’ demands. On the other hand, they’d have to consider the League and other teams’ responses.

Once the valuation of running backs flips entirely, it could set off a ripple effect, with running backs across the league uniting in protest.
