Rebirth declares war on the honest

Chapter 445. 439. Dream across the sky
"At this time next month, the TI race will almost start."

"Recent training feels average. There are a lot of strong foreign teams this year, and the new team is not like last year. There are no domestic opponents, and it is a bit hanging."

"Are you going to Seattle?"

After the training, Liu Xing pulled Gu Yun aside, and the two chatted.

The two brothers haven't seen each other for a while, and Gu Yun hasn't given any directional instructions since Liu Xing was alone, so most of the time now Liu Xing is complaining.

"Let's talk about it at that time. Let's see your training situation. Why should I go for the first round? When the time comes, I will see the shame of my brothers and be ridiculed by the guys who left the team?"

Gu Yun lit a cigarette and joked with Liu Xing with a smile.

The selection of participating teams for TI3 is basically the same as for TI2, with a total of 13 directly invited teams, and then the remaining 3 teams will be selected through regional qualifiers.

The competition area is also the same, divided into the Eastern Division and the Western Division. The No. 1 in the regional qualifiers advances to the main event, and the second in the regional qualifiers competes for the last place through the wild card competition.

The difference from last year is that, as a former TI champion, even if the original five-member team of the Nanhu team has survived in name only, after all, there are still shadows of the famous tree, and the team structure is still there.

The organizers also showed their enthusiasm for the championship team. Even if the Nanhu team was disbanded and now it is a newly reorganized team, they still gave them a place directly invited by TI.

A bunch of pure recruits, except for Liu Xing's experience in competitions, the others have nothing but high ladder scores.

What can such a team do on the world's top stage?

Not only Liu Xing had doubts, but even Gu Yun, who firmly believed that this group of players would be the strongest in the future, was not very optimistic.

"It's okay, just do your best, everyone is still young, and you have already won the highest honor, don't take it too seriously."

Gu Yun threw the zippo in his hand to Liu Xing, and the latter also lit a cigarette, and then his frowns relaxed.

At this moment, Gu Yuncai really changed his role. Now he is closer to a professional investor, a leader who considers the future of the club.

Instead of trying his best to win a world championship for his own dream like before.

Some things are already there, and this knot will stop here.

"I went to the League of Legends branch next door. I haven't been here since you bought it."

"Okay, you go and identify the door, we will continue the training first, and we will have a meal together later."

Gu Yun got up and walked towards the gate of the villa. The townhouse next door is the League of Legends branch of Nanhu Club.

The newly renovated training hall is full of resplendent European style. The brand-new gaming chairs and top-equipped computers fully demonstrate the wealth and wealth of the Nanhu Club. As soon as Gu Yun opened the door, there were many faces he didn't know.

"Mr. Gu."

"Hi boss."

"Brother Gu!"

Different titles, different voices rang out from my ears, the League of Legends branch was different from the next door, after Liu Xing reluctantly took over this mess, he found that he didn't understand the League of Legends at all.

Except for the uzi handpicked by the boss, how should the rest of the players be recruited?
Before Liu Xing could figure out a solution on his own, he encountered an incident that annoyed him very much.

Uzi, who had signed a contract with the South Lake Club early on, was secretly poached by a club called Royal Family.

It's a pity that Uzi is an honest person, and he told Liu Xing the truth about poaching someone behind his back. Not only did he not go, but he also handed over the other party's evidence.

Liu Xing was also used to this three-acre land in Jiangcheng, so he was so angry at that time that he simply called back in front of Uzi and scolded him fiercely.

"You guys can't afford to live anymore? All the children have signed the contract, so it's over?"

"A club like yours will go bankrupt sooner or later, a bunch of idiots!"

"Like poaching people? Your father paid for your team, will you sell it?"

As a result, he never expected that the leader of the Royal Club actually sent him a private message, asking him if he wanted to take over the Royal Club.

The team leader said that Tianci, the owner of their royal family and LMQ team, has given up the team due to financial reasons and has also disappeared.

During Tianci's disappearance, financial aspects have been handled by his wife Lan Meiqi.

However, due to too much pressure, she had to try to sell all the assets.

After one operation, Liu Xing contacted Gu Yun to raise funds, and he really made it happen to buy the royal family.

Since neither I nor the boss understand League of Legends, it is better to buy a relatively mature team, recruit the coach, team leader, and good players from the other side, and just change the name.

Gu Yun didn't say a word, he asked for money and someone, he called Wang Gongzi overnight and contacted the League of Legends branch of Nanhu team to join the Ace e-sports league.

Although Nanhu Club is a rookie in the dota2 project, it is still a rookie in the League of Legends circle, and it is normal not to be invited to the Ace League.

But after the prince came out to intercede, the Nanhu team also replaced the original royal family and joined this organization.

When the scene is mixed to a certain extent, they all pay attention to the culture of a circle, especially in the e-sports industry. The bosses are not short of money, and what they want is a face.

Wang Gongzi and Gu Yun are old acquaintances, and with him coming forward to help, as one of the core members of the leading organization Ace E-sports League, everyone has to give him a little favor.

Except for the original shooter position of the royal family, the entire royal family team including coaches, players, and team leader Yishui changed a new name and joined the Nanhu team collectively.

Soon, they showed their talents.

In this year's summer game, the New South Lake team advanced to the playoffs as the second place in the regular season.

There is no shortage of talented people in every era.

But there are not many people who become famous at a young age and can realize their talents at the age of 16.

In 2013, it was still the wild era when the chaos of the League of Legends e-sports competition first opened.

At this time, there was no so-called tactical system, and no one knew what operation was.

The so-called tactics are just superficially bp and build a lineup around one or two unique heroes.

For example, if you choose Ruofeng's card and the smiling EZ, you can play around him.

In an era when everyone knows little about it, personal strength often overrides the tactical system and becomes the winner of the game.

This gave the young uzi a chance to show his talents in the game.

This year, he was just 16 years old, 4 years younger than Lu Benwei of the same team, and 5 years younger than Xiaoxiao.

"Are you still used to living here? If there is something you don't like, just tell your auntie, she can also cook Cantonese food."

Apart from the uzi he dug out himself, Gu Yun is quite familiar with another star player in the team.

That is Lu Benwei.

He was born in Hong Kong. When the League of Legends first came into people's attention two years ago, he had already regarded it as a career and worked hard.

At that time, e-sports players were still internet-addicted teenagers in the eyes of their elders.

Internet cafes are in the ascendant, so he haunts all kinds of black Internet cafes, travels by subway bus, and his salary is not enough to support his family.

Poverty will not only limit his imagination, but also his image.

So headed by Lu Benwei, the Washing, Cutting and Blowing Royal Family came into being.

Growing up in the smoky Internet cafes where fish and dragons mixed together, he has long been used to the laughter and cursing in the world.

In the future, the top streamers who will go down the altar because of swearing and cheating, never know how to swear without swear words, just feel good about it.

Many people know that Lu Benwei is his live broadcaster. He is good at making gimmicks and has never lacked audiences and fans.

Many people know that he passed the lpl event, and he has participated in many official celebrations and programs, including event commentary.

More people know him because of his blunt mouth, and his attitude of treating the audience as fools is shocking.

But it may be the established effect of the first impression. When Gu Yun thinks of him, he always remembers the boy who jumped up in the s3 world championship.

At that time, Lu Benwei was too excited to jump up to celebrate, but instead of jumping up with headphones on his head and a computer, he fell under the chair, and the headphones fell beside him.

At that time, he was dressed in fresh clothes and angry, his eyes were sharp, and his seriousness was worthy of respect.

"It's okay boss, I'm not picky eaters, I can eat anything."

At this time, Lu Benwei was still a bit young, and even his tone was restrained when talking to Gu Yun, without the domineering edges and corners of a big anchor.

This year he was 20 years old, and Gu Yun was also 20 years old.

It was the first time for two 20-year-old boys to meet each other.

"Who do you think is better now, you or Faker's mid laner?"

Gu Yun suddenly remembered his nickname, couldn't help sitting near him, and joked.

"He should be better. Although I often kill him solo, he is the strongest mid laner in the world after all."

Lu Benwei was afraid that Gu Yun wouldn't understand, so he made a special gesture to show that he was very low-key.

"I've watched your game, and it feels like the two of you are at least [-]-[-]."

Gu Yun patted Lu Benwei on the shoulder, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, showing an encouraging expression.

"what?"

Lu Benwei's small eyes suddenly lit up. The legendary Boss Gu only pays the salary, and the specific operations are handed over to the employees below. Doesn't he understand the League of Legends?
It turns out that such a big boss will also watch my game in private?
And he thinks I have great potential?Even comparable to faker?

Lu Benwei was so excited that he couldn't speak for a while, but he felt that he could do it again.

He secretly made up his mind that he would never keep a low profile anymore. When someone asked him, he said he would have a [-]-[-] split with faker.

Maybe it's a [-]-[-] split in people's minds, but at this time he said the [-]-[-] split answer with a bit of seriousness and weight.

Like the phrase "Have you ever seen Los Angeles at four in the morning?"

Some people use it to ridicule, and some people use it to encourage themselves.

Until the training of the League of Legends branch was about to end, Liu Xing brought the members of the dota2 branch over, and Gu Yun took the group to the largest steamed shrimp restaurant in Jiangcheng for a meal.

Summer and crayfish are always inseparable.

Seeing a pot of fresh and lively crayfish, they are fried in hot oil, and then boiled slowly in the soup with enough ginger, garlic and chili until each shrimp turns red and shiny. , the fiery aroma hits the face.

Only then was it salvaged out of the pot, and a few friends gathered around a table, started directly, and ate it with big mouthfuls.

The prawn claws had little meat, and Gu Yun didn't bother to eat them, but there was a Beijing boy at the same table who might prefer this bite, and was willing to bite open carefully to taste the delicate and sweetness of the little white meat inside.

As soon as most people pick up the crayfish, they snap off the head in a hurry. First, the yellow shrimp yellow is shiny and it tastes really delicious in the mouth.

Then bite into the curled shrimp body, the cooked meat is delicious, the lips and teeth are pleasant to eat, and it is very addictive to eat. After eating one, I immediately want to go to the second one, and I can't stop.

When Gu Yun treats guests, the budget is naturally unnecessary. A group of young men let go of their stomachs, and they don't know how many things they ordered.

Open the oysters and put them on the charcoal fire rack. After a while, the juice will start to boil and bubble. Sprinkle a handful of chopped green onion and garlic, and it will smell delicious when you sip it.

The unnamed sea fish is clamped on an iron plate and placed on the fire, sprinkled with chopped green onion and five spices, and the skin will turn brown after a while. When you poke it with chopsticks, white steam will come out, and the meat inside is also white and tender. After chewing, there is a sweetness that fills the mouth.

Liangliang Steamed Shrimp is the most popular flavor, the main one is spicy.

When customers first tasted it, they only felt that the shrimp meat was delicious. After a while, they realized that the chili and pepper had already punched a set of powerful combinations on the tip of their tongues, and the feeling brought out was both spicy and refreshing.

Even those young people in the team who didn't like spicy food at first seemed to be obsessed in the lobster shop. Even though their lips were red and swollen and their heads were sweating profusely, they still couldn't stop.

At the hottest moment, Gu Yun waved his hand and asked the store to make a large bucket of ice powder and bring it in.

A large iron round spoon was dug into the bucket, a gap was dug out of the smooth jelly, and it was poured into a dozen enamel bowls.

Everyone smashed it with a small plastic spoon, and the whole water block was cut into small pieces, soaked in brown sugar juice, chubby, shaking and colliding, smashing a ball of light, and scattered in the bowl, crystal clear Translucent, cool and icy, lined with ice balls that sink to the bottom of the bowl.

Every old foodie in Jiangcheng knows that if you want to get rid of the spicy taste of crayfish, you have to quickly scoop a spoonful of ice powder into your mouth.

The water ball gently flicked its teeth, and broke open in an instant, and the coolness inside melted away, and it was moistened with brown sugar water, sweet and refreshing, swallowing it, the taste rushed all the way from the mouth into the stomach, cold It's cool and refreshing.

After someone finished eating a whole bowl of ice powder, the heat disappeared all over his body, as if he had a magical body protection all of a sudden, which had nothing to do with this fiery hot summer.

"I wish everyone can win their own world champion!"

Gu Yun took the lead in toasting. The two teams, including the coach and team leader, had a total of more than a dozen people. Everyone sat in a large private room and made a wish for the future.

In this warm summer breeze, the sound of crayfish cracking their shells, the sound of chatting and boasting when they are slightly drunk, the sound of clinking glasses full of draft beer, and the clear and crisp sound of thud thud rang around everyone.

At this moment, it resembled the sound of a dream passing through the sky.
