Reborn Millennial Gamer

Chapter 374 Human Emperor Sky: I will stand on the shoulders of giants

August 8, Hunter Club.

With messy hair on top, Li Xiaofeng sat in front of the computer, eyes with dark circles staring at the screen, with a mouse in one hand and a keyboard in the other.

Suddenly, a teammate wearing glasses patted his shoulder lightly and called out:
"Xiaofeng, the manager told you to go to the office."

"Hey, what's the matter?"

Li Xiaofeng took off his earphones, his eyes were full of confusion.

The glasses teammate leaned down and said quietly: "I just went in to renew the contract. I guess our situation is similar, and so are you."

"Really!"

Li Xiaofeng's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly realized that the three-month contract he signed with the club had expired.

In the budding stage of the e-sports industry, players not only have to bear the mental pressure of "Internet-addicted teenagers", but also have financial pressure. Food and lodging, and a salary of 1200 yuan.

It's an e-sports player's paradise!

He stood at the door of the office, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door.

The manager yelled "Come in", then pointed to the empty seat opposite to indicate to sit down, and said some polite words with a smile on his face.

Li Xiaofeng was restless, thinking about renewing his contract. This contract not only determines his future, but even his e-sports career dream.

"Sky, I think you also know the purpose of my seeking you this time."

The manager suppressed the smile on his face, and to make a long story short, he didn't plan to sign with him again after the contract expired.

"Why, this is different from what you said when you recruited me before!"

Li Xiaofeng stood up abruptly, his eyes full of disbelief: "You said that as long as the results are outstanding enough, I can stay. Isn't the championship of the ACON4 Yanjing division not enough?"

"Not enough, of course not enough."

The manager spread his words and said with regret: "So the high-level collectively decided to abolish the Warcraft department and invest all the limited resources in Interstellar. I'm sorry, Sky. It's not that you are not good enough, but that the plan has changed."

"I also want to be a StarCraft player. It was you who made me switch to Warcraft to fill the gap in the club."

Feeling abandoned, Li Xiaofeng suppressed his anger and said, "I've just started to achieve results, you..."

"That's because the StarCraft quota is full, and your level is only good enough to fight Warcraft."

The manager dismissed it and said: "If you want to blame, you can only blame that the popularity of World of Warcraft is not as good as that of StarCraft. The club is not a charity hall. People like us who pay food, lodging and wages are paid. You can ask around Yanjing. Is there a second one?"

Li Xiaofeng was silent for a while, speechless.

"Don't feel uncomfortable, the entire department is being withdrawn, and all those involved in Warcraft will be dismissed."

The manager took out a letter of resignation from the drawer, "Look, not only you players, but even the team leader King has left."

Li Xiaofeng's mind was in a mess, like a paste, he exited the office despondently, returned to the living room, slumped on the chair, looked around the players who were training hard, and found that everything in front of him suddenly had nothing to do with him.

Have my esports dreams been shattered yet again?
His eyes darkened, and he covered his face with his hands. The ups and downs of chasing dreams all the way appeared in his mind. The most difficult thing right now is how to face his parents.

If you want to get support from your family, you must come up with something that convinces your parents. The reason why you can convince your parents is not because of this job that includes food and lodging. Now that you have lost your job, what will you do in the future?
"Ah~"

Li Xiaofeng sat and sighed all the time, unknowingly there were a few more around him, all of them were colleagues from the Warcraft team, and they were also from Tianya.

Just then, the only telephone in the living room rang.

Li Xiaofeng was the closest, as soon as he answered the phone, his eyes lit up, and he blurted out: "Brother King?"

"Xiaofeng, the Hunter Club didn't renew your contract with you, right?"

The team leader King received an affirmative answer, and his tone couldn't help being overjoyed: "I'm currently the team leader of a newly established club, focusing on the Warcraft project. I specially recommend you to the boss. I wonder if you are interested in joining?"

"Yes! Brother King, of course!"

Li Xiaofeng shuddered, his spirits lifted again, "Where is the location, I will go there right away."

…………

Kyoto University, Resource Hotel.

It is still the familiar rooms 1416 and 1418. It used to be Feigo.com, then Sogou, and now it is Wings' training base.

One is used for training, and the other provides accommodation. The conditions are comparable to those of future e-sports clubs, let alone now.

Not bad money!
Qilixiang and Logic jointly invested 200 million, and the shares were 49:51.

At this moment, on the clean white wall, a flag with a red background was nailed with nails, and the pure white Wings of Liberty logo was printed on it.

Sitting on the sofa below was Lu Fei. He crossed his legs and flipped through the players' information and resumes:

"Poaching people from other clubs is a way of thinking, but age must be considered. Young people must be young. Young people are quick to respond, unconstrained and have great potential. This kind of talent is suitable for professional players."

"Forget it this time, let's not take it as an example. Next time, no matter whether it is an amateur who signed up or a player who switched from another team, he must participate in the trial training. The value of training will be measured according to the results of the trial training..."

"To operate professionally, in addition to managers and team leaders, there must also be youth training, life, and administrative configuration..."

"In short, there must be quantity, but the quality must be guaranteed. The money that should be spent does not need to be saved, but the money spent should also be heard."

"I understand, Mr. Lu!"

The team leader King listened carefully, his eyes full of enthusiasm.

Lu Fei said calmly, "Is that sky here?"

"It should be on the way, I'll call again to remind you."

The team leader king bent down, took out his mobile phone, and walked towards the door. Just in the corridor, he found Li Xiaofeng who was looking for a room one by one in the corridor, and hurriedly pulled him into the room.

"President Lu, people, people are here."

The moment Li Xiaofeng saw Master Lu, his head was empty and he was at a loss.

Even though I have been reminded on the phone, and I have worked hard to build up my mind along the way, but when I really face to face and get close to the big people I can only see on TV, I forget everything.

The leader of the team, King, quickly winked and poked secretly: "Call Mr. Lu, quickly call Mr. Lu."

"Hello, Mr. Lu!"

Li Xiaofeng was overly cautious, and suddenly bowed 90 degrees.

"You know everything about the salary, are you willing to join Wings?"

Lu Fei pursed his lips and glanced up and down at the immature Emperor.

Who would have thought that he would shine in the next two years? It is precisely because of the online "World of Warcraft" that has brought the popular Warcraft IP in the past few years. It also rectifies the names of games and "Internet addicted teenagers".

Undoubtedly, the number one player in China's e-sports!
"I-I want to!"

Li Xiaofeng blurted out, no way, it was too much.

The basic salary is 1300 yuan, and there is basic medical insurance and social security. There are bonuses and sharing for the rankings in large and small events. Looking for it with a lantern is the only one in the e-sports circle.

Lu Fei slapped his thigh and stood up, "Okay, while they are preparing the contract, let's fight the Frozen Throne a few times?"

"Fight with you, do you also play Warcraft?"

Li Xiaofeng was startled, and immediately noticed the look in the eyes from the manager and team leader King, and secretly felt bitter.

Letting the water let Master Lu win, it seems that he is not level.

Seriously defeating Master Lu, that's not courting death!The rivers and lakes are more than just fighting and killing, it is the sophistication of the world.

"Who has never been an Internet addicted teenager, I just often climb over the wall to go clubbing, and only go to high school after failing the college entrance examination."

Lu Fei smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm not asking you to play against me. I'm not stupid enough to be an amateur to challenge a professional. Play a few games with the most difficult computers with me."

"no problem!"

Li Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief, and thought to himself that he must put all his energy into showing off to Master Lu.

Lu Fei smiled and said: "Although I can't operate well, I have a deep understanding of Warcraft. Maybe you can learn a lot of tactics from me."

Li Xiaofeng was submissive on the surface, but he was very unconvinced in his heart, teach me how to fight World of Warcraft?I teach you almost!
If you can make me fall in love with even one of your tactics, I'll eat this display on the spot!
I want to go back to thinking, but when it comes to the real battle on the computer, the TR wave of the human race, the spider flow of the undead, the magic oil flow of the human race's guns and witches, and the blowing flow of the night elves restraining the orcs...

Fantastic ideas emerge in endlessly.

This kind of scene, not to mention Li Xiaofeng, the team leader King and others have never seen it before, and it is the first time to appreciate the charm of the game of Warcraft.

He looked dazed, he was 19 that year, sitting like an ant, who am I, where am I, and what am I going to do?
Lu Fei smiled and said, "How about it, are these suitable for the competition?"

"President Lu, you came up with these tactics and strategies?"

Li Xiaofeng's eyes are full of admiration, no longer in terms of money and status, but completely conquered by the understanding of the game that is several versions ahead.

Although Master Lu is a dwarf in operation, he is definitely a giant in tactics. Although, those who play tactics have dirty eyes!
"Look hard, study hard, this year's WCG may be held in China, I am very optimistic about you."

Lu Fei stretched out his hand, patted him on the shoulder lightly, and almost said, I see you look like a king.

Li Xiaofeng trembled, this kind of long-lost encouragement, especially from such a big man as Master Lu, warmed his heart.

His eyes turned red involuntarily. If he hadn't been sitting, he would have knelt down on the ground immediately, worshiped, and uttered another sentence:
Sky has been wandering for half his life, and only hates that he has not met the Ming Lord. If the Lord does not give up, he is willing to worship as the godfather!

Many years later, Li Xiaofeng wrote at the beginning of his autobiography "When Li Xiaofeng Becomes Sky"——

Without Master Lu's perfection, there would be no Sky today.

Master Lu is to me what Ip Man is to Bruce Lee. I was sitting next to him that day, and he said: Sky, take care, I only hit once.

To this day, I can never forget the shock!

Many of my tactics, including the astonishing TR Yiboliu, are just the tip of Master Lu's iceberg. It can be said that there are 10 tactics in Warcraft, and Master Lu monopolizes 7 fights.

It is no exaggeration to say that my success in Warcraft is entirely on the shoulders of the giant Master Lu.
