Chapter 111: For this dream

Views:

This is AM's preparation room, and the computer was still on before I left.

Of course, they didn't have the heart to continue to open the game to relax, and no one cared about the situation on the scene.

"Why didn't you tell us earlier?" Liu Sanping was surprised, stunned by Yun Yun's sudden report.

Competitive mode, quick mode, and even brawl mode, in Overwatch, when he encounters any cheating player, he will be used to discussing with his teammates whether the cheating on the opposite side is a self-aiming lock or a see-through self-aiming, whether it is a super vip or an ordinary user , giggling and casually reporting, restarting a round is a brand new battle.

Now, his words speak out the hearts of the whole team.

When they heard Yun Yun's report, the team members were full of surprises, and even began to recall whether there had been any hints from Yun Yun.

The conclusion is no.

Except for following the team's practice plan for 08, Yun Yun restricted 08's performance throughout the whole process, and never said a word of introductory words similar to "08 open". The handed-in mobile phone is still stored in the staff's safe, sitting together and looking at each other.

The team's promotional video in the live broadcast room was also playing on the computer, and GodR's announcement flashed by, and the countdown sign counted the last few seconds, heralding the upcoming knockout round between KingPlay and War Lord.

What they cared about was the game that had just ended, and they wished they could pull up the replay and take another look at 08's perspective.

At this moment, Yun Yun couldn't tell what he felt.

If possible, he is willing to keep the whole process of reporting until the dust settles completely secret from his teammates, pretending that the matter of 08 has nothing to do with him.

He is just scared. I am afraid that public opinion will reproduce the madness of two years ago, and I am also afraid of being condemned by my teammates.

It was the distrust brought up two years ago, which took root in his heart and will always be an iron thorn. He still doesn't know who first leaked the reported news. Maybe it's the sponsor, maybe it's the staff, maybe it's the reported RH.

Maybe, it was his teammates.

His teammates have been shocked and asked him to repeat the reasons for his doubts since he learned the news. He clearly remembers the excitement on his face.

Cheating, the consequences in professional competitions are particularly serious, Yun Yun and the others lost to RH, if it can be proved that RH cheated, then they are still the champions.

In the beginning, his teammates stood on the same front as him. With the development of the whole report, public opinion gradually emerged. The organizers and club managers were silenced, and they did not even have the right to voice their voices online.

It wasn't just Daylight that was attacked, but the entire team.

Until the end, when he was the only one left to persevere, the ridicule and condemnation from his teammates gradually changed from believing that RH cheated on him to Daylight's "I can't afford to lose".

Therefore, Yun Yun would only question 08 after the victory.

Facing Liu Sanping's questioning, he looked relaxed and said: "I am afraid that if I say it in advance, it will affect the performance of the game. If I lose this game, I will not report it."

What Yun Yun said was from the bottom of his heart. After experiencing the same incident, he became more cautious, but the courage to gamble never disappeared.

"So you want to beat them 3:0?" Lu Xiaoan asked.

"Yes." He wanted to stand in the absolute advantage of the winner and declare war on his opponent, "I want to beat them, the more beautiful the better."

His bet is that 08 will not give up such an excellent opportunity to continue cheating. Eight to four are single-elimination. As long as GodR loses, there is no possibility of a comeback. As long as players who want to use the cheating program to win, they will definitely Use the same set of equipment as in the past.

If the losers have no right to speak, then they have won, at least there will be no more dirty words of "can't afford to lose".

"Because the only evidence I have is the set of equipment used by 08. Regarding the judgment that he cheated, I just raised a possibility. The next step is to see the official inspection process of the report."

The words were spoken cautiously, with confidence in the authorities. In fact, Yun Yun had no idea.

Kang Ming has always been reliable. After knowing his plan, he gave him support, and he didn't even say a word of opposition.

Faced with such unconditional trust, Yun Yun felt terrified.

What he is most afraid of is that the officials don't want to deal with cheating. Whether it's the IOP official or the game official, he doesn't want to experience the perfunctory evasion that he has experienced once in the past. Kang Ming is indeed the sponsor representative of IOP, but Yun Yun is not naive enough to think that Kang Ming's power can cover the sky with one hand.

Yun Yun had no choice but to wait for news.

He believed in Kang Ming, even if he faced failure again in the end, he would not regret it.

All the members of AM were waiting in the waiting room. Even if the screen of the next fierce and exciting game was cut into the computer, they were not in the mood to take a second look.

Professional competition open? Facing the world-class team is not inferior to the 08 open? Writing a novel must be a routine of hitting the world with golden fingers, but in reality, it will only make people feel incredible.

"I've always thought the 08's gun was very powerful, because he was so accurate. I always felt that I was caught because I was too good at it. I was very angry." Liu Sanping "GodR has won so many games with 08, and his McCree I want to learn, but I still feel a little emotional.”

Lu Xiaoan stood outside the discussion circle, sat with Yun Yun, and asked in a low voice, "Are you sure?"

"No." Yun Yun was telling the truth, he didn't think there was anything worth hiding, "I didn't even study the 08 mouse. When I shook hands last time, I glanced at it. It's just an ordinary classic model."

Lu Xiaoan smiled, and said, "Then you are very courageous, and you are not afraid that what happened to ST will happen again, and you will be the one to blame in the end?"

"I've been blamed once, and it's not bad for the second time." Yun Yun listened to his teammates discussing from 08's gun to McGrath, and mourned Jeff's Tracer by the way, feeling that such a lively atmosphere broke up The depression in the air, "It's just that it may hurt you."

If the reported matter leaks out, Yun Yun will definitely choose to stand up before causing bad effects.

He wants to firmly control all the conflict centers to himself, because he doesn't want the entire team to be implicated.

He was the one who discovered the cheat, he was the one who decided to report it, and he was the one who capriciously proposed to seize the equipment on the field. He was mentally prepared for these things from the very beginning, and he was able to face all the condemnation and ridicule.

Just like two years ago.

"They're all in the same team, why don't you say that you're involved or not." Lu Xiaoan didn't quite agree with her tone, she stood up and stretched, "But I don't think Boss Chen will let us be in a passive position."

Kang Ming has always been reliable in the hearts of the team members. He can show courage to take over the entire team, build a villa as a base, pay wages without arrears and bonuses, and is not relentless. If everyone is not too lazy to move, the team tour may be possible for several rounds . Such a boss has a tall and powerful image and authoritative speech.

But after Yun Yun heard this sentence, he thought of something else. He said, "I hope that the official will not let us down."

It is very simple to test whether there is any problem with the 08 mouse. Open the client and experience it for yourself to solve the problem. The whole process may not even take an hour, but there are more checks and balances behind it.

"GodR is Ruifeng's team." Lu Xiaoan understood what he meant, and also knew Ruifeng's right to speak in the IOP. "Perhaps, fairness and justice are not as difficult as imagined."

However, there is a price to pay.

After a fruitless discussion, it is impossible for Ruifeng to forcefully break into the locked room and take out GodR's equipment.

This is too ugly and does not conform to the identity of a representative of a large company.

He poached Zuo Zhou and Kang Ming, and left very angry. He couldn't gain an advantage in the meeting, and he was as unhappy as if he had lost a battle.

"GodR's people will definitely not be able to keep them, let Mr. Gu get ready."

Zuo Zhou felt that Mr. Li's function of having no real power on the wall is very useful to be able to delay for a day. He said, "Maybe you should invite Mr. Chen to the scene. He has wanted to make an appointment with the An family for a long time."

"Ah?" Kang Ming didn't know why he had such an exclamation, "Mr. Li can just call and ask for instructions. Do you really want someone from An's family to come?"

They were completely different from Ruifeng's anger, they walked slowly behind, and quickly distanced themselves from the people in front.

Zuo Zhou said: "There is no hate without reason, no love without reason, and there is no charity without reason."

"The An family wants to make big news?"

As soon as Kang Ming finished speaking, Zuo Zhou's cell phone vibrated. He was used to seeing this person turn on the screen and take care of everything. Then he said leisurely, "Before you said that you came here by yourself. How did Overwatch attract him?"

"I'm not sure whether this is a good thing or a bad thing for you." Zuo Zhou, as a person who participated in the preparation and operation of the IOP, is well aware of some special behind-the-scenes care, "Although you said no It doesn’t matter how AM is grouped, it doesn’t matter if you are strong or weak, AM will win anyway. But some people don’t seem to want you to meet a weak team, it’s better to be strong all the way, and lose as badly as possible.”

This feeling of being a hindrance is simply to want AM to be defeated and go home in the group stage, which made Zuo Zhou pay more attention to this matter. From the beginning of the group stage, he closely monitored the lottery process. Except for the group stage, who No more hands and feet can be done on it.

"who?"

"Mr. Li."

When Kang Ming and Zuo Zhou pushed open the door of the lounge, everyone's gazes were saluted in unison as if they were asking questions.

Kang Ming said: "Go home first, and we will deal with the rest. There will be semi-finals and finals next. Keep your mentality and keep going!"

"How to deal with it?" Lu Xiaoan asked.

Generally speaking, this is not something they should ask, so Lu Xiaoan still spoke.

This was what Yun Yun wanted to know the most.

Zuo Zhou said: "The reporting process has been carried out according to the procedure, and the identification of cheating will continue, at most two or three days, and we will give everyone an answer before the semi-finals."

"Will it be done openly and transparently?" Lu Xiaoan asked again.

If the first question he asked was reasonable, the second question had some emotional meaning, even Yun Yun could feel it.

Lu Xiaoan is questioning the justice behind it.

This is a very weird performance, let's say it was Yun Yun who spoke, but if it was Lu Xiaoan instead, Kang Ming felt that something was wrong. "Do you have any ideas?" he asked.

What he was afraid of was that Yun Yun's reporting on the field would cause dissatisfaction among the team members. After a team's internal harmony is broken, it is difficult to restore it to its original state. The human heart is a complicated and delicate thing, and prejudiced thoughts will be subconsciously reflected in words and actions.

"Yes." The preparation room was filled with acquaintances of the team, and Lu Xiaoan was not afraid that his thoughts would spread, "I'm afraid that Ruifeng will protect GodR in the name of protecting the reputation of IOP."

Ruifeng Bao GodR is affirmative, even Kang Ming feels that Ruifeng has a little involvement with the agent. Everyone’s attitude is very clear. Ruifeng’s insistence that the team has not been hacked, and the agent’s insistence that there is no abnormality in the account explains everything. Coupled with Mr. Li’s insinuations about IOP’s reputation and cheating scandals, in Kang Ming’s eyes, the three parties have already Agreement was reached.

"Ruifeng really wants to keep GodR, but it also depends on whether he has the ability." Kang Ming didn't want to show his cards in front of the team members, but just wanted them to believe in him unswervingly, "IOP's reputation doesn't need to be used behind the scenes." Trade to maintain."

"Now, everyone, take your stuff and come home with me."

The way back was very quiet, and everyone kept a low-key conversation, whispering in a low voice. They received warnings from Kang Ming and Zhang Ye to strictly keep their secrets, and even if they saw leaked news, they would automatically filter it as if they hadn't seen it.

Such a request is very simple. After all, apart from Yun Yun and Kang Ming, the team members have never disclosed their private communication and social contact information.

Kang Ming's text messages didn't stop all the time. He was making sure that Gu Chensheng wasn't too obsessed with lust, so he kept explaining to Gu Chensheng the importance of confidentiality along with Le Ye.

It took only one or two hours for the plug-in dealers to know about 08's report. I hope they won't think of Le Ye.

After all, in their hearts, Yun Yun was a frequent visitor to the reporting circle.

Kang Ming was not completely relieved when he received Gu Chensheng's reply. 08 was a team that used to belong to RH, and this team was still reported by Yun Yun.

That private message on Weibo contained malicious and mocking emoticons, obviously knowing that DL is a simple equation of Daylight.

There are also professional long microblogs, videos, animations, and attempts to draw Yun Yun into the suspicion of cheating. Together, it is not too much for 08.

Whether it's a war of grass or trees, or chasing after the wind, what Kang Ming is most worried about is the recurrence of the incident two years ago.

From supporting reporting and denouncing cheating, it has evolved into Daylight can't afford to lose.

The only good thing is that AM won, and the opponent won 3:0 and was convinced that he could never stand up again. He is proud and distressed in his heart. To achieve a 3-0 victory under such pressure, it not only depends on the super-level performance of the whole team, but also Yun Yun's forbearance. Same as winning.

The rest of the day is obviously not suitable for continuing the group training,

Zhang Ye directly said to take half a day off, get up tomorrow morning to analyze today's game, and then study the next match.

The team members are all in high spirits. After all, they won the game, the inside story was revealed, their hearts of gossip were burning, and they were able to chat about ninety-nine news in the team's internal discussion group.

Except Yun Yun, he said, wanted to sleep.

Kang Ming silently followed behind him, feeling that Yun Yun's steps going upstairs were a bit heavy. No matter how confident and free-spirited this person is, he is still full of worries about reporting. He believes in Kang Ming, justice, and fairness, but he does not believe in the profit-seeking nature of businessmen.

If 08's equipment has nothing, then he is wrong.

If there is indeed a cheating program on 08's equipment, and the answer is still the same as two years ago, then he is still wrong.

Yun Yun sighed, walked to the door of the two rooms, and said, "Today I sleep alone, I want to be quiet."

"Who is Jingjing, don't think about it!" Kang Ming decisively reached out to pull him into his arms, and almost shook his shoulders and roared, "Yun Yun, don't be sad."

"I'm not sad." Yun Yun frowned, leaned on his shoulder slowly, and sighed again.

"Sighing will make you old." Kang Ming's physical advantages were fully revealed at this time, he immediately hugged Yun Yun, opened the door easily, and let the person on his body hug his neck and lie on his stomach like a baby.

He could feel Yun Yun's mood, depression and hesitation, and he didn't dare to be blindly optimistic until the result was confirmed. What was suppressed in his heart was not only the matter of 08 but also the matter of RH, maybe there was a commotion two years ago Condemnation and regretful retirement. Yun Yun's career path is not smooth in another sense. He is indeed winning continuously, but his character is too upright to feel the cruelty of reality. "Those who are too rigid are easy to break, and those who are gentle are undefeated." But Yun Yun wants to use absolute justice, which is either black or white, to win another kind of victory.

Kang Ming could only make his tone more gentle, wanting to warm this overly upright person. He said: "Cry if you want to cry, don't suppress yourself. I'm your man, there's nothing to be ashamed of."

"I didn't cry." Yun Yun wanted to bite him, rubbed against his neck, adjusted to a comfortable posture, and continued to play tricks, "Can we really win?"

Yun Yun would never say such things, because he has always been the core of the team, and he must have strong self-confidence to bring victory to the team.

What he meant by winning was not a fight with live ammunition on the field, but an absolute advantage in the face of the turbulent behind-the-scenes battles.

"There is something I want to tell you privately and quietly. Overwatch's programmers have arrived. What's more convincing than letting game designers personally witness the existence of cheats?"

Yun Yun stood up, looked at him in surprise, and asked, "Really?"

"Yes. 08's equipment will be inspected by him himself." Looking at him, Kang Ming felt that Yun Yun had come back to life because of a simple sentence, so innocent and cute, "We will definitely win."

Kang Ming spoke with confidence, but he had no idea. For example, what should I do if there is no abnormality in 08's equipment, or what should I do if I open my eyes tomorrow morning and the sunspot studio is flying all over the sky, even Gu Chensheng can't hold it down. However, he could no longer let Yun Yun fall into the situation of the past.

When he stood two years later and went back to the incident that had caused a lot of trouble, his heart would ache as long as he recalled Yun Yun's downcast expression, even if it was in the past that he had never participated in. It doesn't matter whether he is sad for spring or autumn, or he is full of emotions. Kang Ming hopes that at that time, he can stand beside Yun Yun, become Yun Yun's shoulder, and protect Yun Yun from wind and rain. Even if it were someone else, even if they never had the chance to meet again, he still hoped that Daylight would always be active in ST's arena.

Because, he didn't want to see Yunyun being wronged a little bit. This person should be hugged in his arms, enjoy flowers and cheers, and win victory and glory along the way.

Kang Ming said, "Yun Yun, you have to trust me."

From the next day until the start of the game, there was no news about it on the Internet, and even Kang Ming's mood became much better.

Mr. Li never came back, and there was no reply. GodR's equipment was still locked in the monitoring room and was safe and sound.

The only difference is that GodR registered for the cup to postpone their order of appearance, which is another way of compromise for Ruifeng.

The An family still sent someone, and it was An Ruibo, the second son of the An's Group. He has no real power in the group, and he does freelance work, which has nothing to do with the nature of e-sports.

He said: "I usually play games and open auxiliary software, but I haven't heard of such a crazy cheat. This time I came to learn more. Uncle Li has other work arrangements. I just As a representative, come and watch the high-level intellectuals of American imperialism go to the countryside to study.”

An Ruibo's words were out of the ordinary, he was indeed young, he seemed to be in his early twenties and thirties, maybe even younger than Kang Ming.

Compared with Mr. Li's demeanor, Kang Ming looked much more pleasing to the eye.

Just when he changed his mind, An Ruibo suddenly sighed and said, "Big anchor, why is your team so strong? Is there any trick?"

strong…

Kang Ming has heard praises about Are Men's strength and AM's invincibility, and it's the first time he heard such words with other points of view, using the word "strong", as if this person doesn't want this team to continue. of.

He thought of what Zuo Zhou said about Mr. Li's special concern for AM.

And Mr. Li himself is just a microphone.

People in Anjia, at least this An Ruibo, don't want AM to win all the time.

Kang Ming has seen many such situations, such as red eyes, sunspots, and opponent fans. So he asked, "Mr. An is also interested in professional teams?"

"No, it's boring." An Ruibo quickly denied it. "This kind of poor and hard-working industry that burns youth, even if you struggle for ten years, you will become a middle-aged Internet addict at the most, and it seems that there is no future."

His words were very blunt, and he ridiculed the entire e-sports professional circle to be worthless. If it were someone else, he might have been posted on Weibo and forums round and round to let others know his mistakes.

But Kang Ming smiled and said: "Maybe for Mr. An, ten years of hard work is just a little bit older, and there is no future. But Are Men can win because they are a group of real men who burn their youth to realize their dreams , is not the same as yours."

An Ruibo sneered and said, "Don't be hostile to me, Mr. Chen."

"No." Kang Ming didn't bother to talk to people he didn't like.

"I'm on your side. Didn't Uncle Li say that you want me to help persuade Ruifeng?"

Kang Ming hoped that he would come from where he came from, where he would go back, and invite that obtrusive Mr. Li back by the way. He felt that An Ruibo didn't know the art of persuasion at all.

opposite effect.

An Ruibo didn't care about his indifference, and said to himself: "We always support AM. It's just that I hope to see you finish the game sooner, so that I can go home and do business."

Hearing this, Kang Ming paused in his steps, turned around and frowned and asked him, "What does my team have to do with you?"

Kang Ming's tone was not good, but he heard his team named with the emotion of "hope to lose soon", and he was kind-hearted if he didn't tear it openly.

"It does matter, brother." An Ruibo's smile was particularly hateful, "I bet on a brand new Porsche that you won't make it to the final."

Zuo Zhou quickly grabbed Kang Ming with his hands and feet, as if he felt a feeling that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of the building. Kang Ming felt that An Ruibo was really not pleasing to the eye, and he was too lazy to bother with this kind of person, so he walked forward quickly, feeling that it was a waste of time and inexplicable that he came to greet An Jia.

In the end, Zuo Zhou, who had experienced many battles, was left to meet the pretender.

He said, "Mr. An still watches the games?"

"Don't look at it, most people tell me the result."

Every sentence has an annoying atmosphere, but Zuo Zhou is not angry, and said: "I think AM may enter the final."

"Mr. Zuo, don't you also have a team?" After speaking, he seemed to think of something, "Oh, it should be two teams, they can't beat AM?"

What he said was not ridicule, but surprise, as if he was surprised why the two teams of Delin Group could not beat the vase team formed by the mere anchor.

"Whether the team can win or not is not up to me." Zuo Zhou smiled and glanced at him, "Of course, it's not up to you."

No matter how arrogant the Anjia people were, they didn't reach out to block their way of reporting and killing, which was already the best result.

Zuo Zhou's main task now is to accompany An's family to watch the venue, and be ready for Ruifeng to fight back to the battlefield at any time.

The game was about to start, and An Ruibo suddenly said that he wanted to go and see the scene.

In the venue of the IOP, Mr. Li often appears. The inspector who diligently observed the progress of the game has finally resigned. Now, it has been replaced by the arrogant Erik Bo.

When they entered the arena, the auditorium was already full of spectators, waiting for the game to start. The team promotion was played on the screen in a loop, and every young face represented a new possibility.

It was rare for An Ruibo to remain silent. After watching the video quietly, at the end of McGrath's last ending, he asked: "Mr. Zuo, tell me, a normal person would choose the first choice if you lie down and spend money and do coolies." One."

Lying down and spending money is easy, and working hard is tiring. Such simple words represent two different lives. One is the rich second generation whose family conditions are good and can enjoy life with peace of mind, and the other is the poor generation who rely on their own efforts to survive.

His question was answered directly, he didn't intend to ask a question, but his eyes were full of expectation, hoping that Zuo Zhou would agree with his point of view.

Zuo Zhou thought about it for a while, and he could understand his brain circuit, so he said: "The life of being rich is indeed good, but the life of working as a coolie is not necessarily painful. If you say that you are idle all day long, it is better to be busy and change your mind." The feeling of being fulfilled makes people live more real."

Zuo Zhou looked at the stage, the lights belonging to the contestants have been turned on, and the promotional advertisement is circulating the last group, he added: "If someone faces such a choice and decides to live the latter life, maybe he has seen too much. If you feel bored with many examples of living in luxury and extravagance, you will want to experience the days of struggle and hard work."

The euphemism he said doesn't mean that An Ruibo can't understand.

The Anjia people are well-educated, but their character has never been polished by reality, and there is always a little bit of water chestnut, but he is not a fool. An Ruibo said: "You mean I set a bad example?"

An Ruibo is probably a spoiled child, he doesn't need to go to work to feel the warmth and warmth of human relationships, and he doesn't need to look at anyone's face. When he encounters trouble, someone will naturally help him deal with everything. Most people would feel envious and jealous, thinking that such dudes will be educated by the society sooner or later, and their family property will be ruined. Unfortunately, as long as these children of aristocratic families know how to obey the law and not offend more powerful and prestigious people, this kind of character Physical flaws are not enough to crush them forever.

This kind of people are born to grow up in the shade, no matter whether the outside world ridicules them for their bad roots, or curses them to die young, it can't stop these people from living a happy life in a favorable environment.

Some of them are well-educated and appear humble and polite, while some are doted on by the whole family and become domineering. Everyone's personality is very different, and no one can represent the other. Therefore, Zuo Zhou does not agree with An Ruibo's attitude. I don't think there is anything I can't understand.

He said: "Maybe enjoying life is your pursuit, but you can't deny the pursuit of dreams by others."

"Dream... With a salary of a little over 10,000 a month, and sitting in front of the computer for more than ten hours from morning to night, what dreams are there?"

"Do you think professional players are tired and miserable?" Zuo Zhou smiled.

"right."

Zuo Zhou was still smiling. He said, "However, the rewards brought by the victory are enough to make them forget all the sweat and hard work."

"Money?" An Ruibo felt even more incomprehensible when he heard the reward, "You don't need to work hard to win, and you don't need to play any profession. He is just as rich. Moreover, the prize money he gets is much more than that of the champion."

"Ah—McGrath!" Cheers and applause suddenly erupted from the auditorium, and the lights of the contestants were as dazzling as a superstar appearing on the stage.

That was the voice that BME and Pil-Seung brought to the stage.

Among them, McGrath, who was the most conspicuous on the screen, still smiled gently when looking at the camera, and the shouts he caused could overturn the entire venue.

An Ruibo frowned at the sound, he said: "Which team has such a big show? Who is McGrath?"

"BME, Gunslinger's team." Zuo Zhou looked at the BME members appearing on the screen one by one, they are the best professional players in the world, "Gunslinger McGrath, who has been in the game for ten years, is the most popular in the e-sports professional circle The output position. His family owns the equity of the largest live broadcast platform in the world, and is involved in the international financial and real estate industries. The scale and assets may be larger than that of Anjia. He is what you said, and he can do nothing for two consecutive lives. A professional player who spends money while lying down, but wants to go on stage in person."

Zuo Zhou didn't look at An Ruibo, but looked up at the most dazzling blond man on the player bench. It was this man who brought the biggest buzz to Overwatch, and he was also the most influential professional player in the world.

"Some people are willing to chase their dreams." Zuo Zhou's voice was covered by the exciting background music of the venue, "No matter how humble and unbelievable this dream may seem to others, to them That's what it means to live."
