"Do you want to come to a professional team to develop?"
As soon as Coach Chen said this, Qiao Yanzhou had only two choices, one was to think.
The second one is very special and extremely thoughtful!
However, the longing from the bottom of Qiao Yanzhou's heart was not enough for him to let go of himself on the spot. He still maintained a full sense of reason and a full mental state, looking at Coach Chen.
"Join the professional team, can I...can I do it?"
"What's that called?" Coach Chen raised his eyebrows.
"You don't need to pay attention to him," Gu Zixing curled up on the sofa while fiddling with his mobile phone while waving his hands to Coach Chen. "Recently, he is more keen on asking others if they are okay."
Hearing Gu Zixing's words, Coach Chen nodded half-understood, hesitated for a while, and then simply changed his communication method: "Little Qiao, is a professional team a very high and unattainable thing in your mind? .”
"It's not unattainable..." Qiao Yanzhou smacked his lips and thought for a while, "But it's almost there."
"Actually, it's not as difficult as you think. Basically, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can get into any crooked melons and cracked dates." When Coach Chen said "crazy melons and cracked dates", he turned his head and glanced at the side who was looking at his phone. Gu Zixing.
"Coach Chen, I know you said that because you were afraid that I would be nervous." Qiao Yanzhou smiled, "Who wouldn't want to go to a professional team? It's just that I don't have much confidence..."
The coquettish trick that Qiao Yanzhou is using now is called Playing Hard to Get, which can not only make him appear less reckless in front of Coach Chen, but also arouse Coach Chen's desire to let him join the team.
What is your favorite thing to do as a coach? Influence you, shape you, temper you, polish you!
If the less confident person joins the team and becomes more and more confident under the coach's training, he might even win a world championship or something in the end, the coach's face will become more face-saving. Later, when someone interviewed Coach Chen and talked about a certain player, the coach also had more material to speak for himself.
Actually, is Qiao Yanzhou really not confident? How could that be possible, apart from anything else, he was almost dead confident in Storm League, not to mention entering a professional team, even if someone asked him to go to the World Championships tomorrow to receive an award, he would still be able to book a ticket without saying a word.
And fortunately, Qiao Yanzhou's routine worked.
"What's wrong with not being confident? Which player who just entered the professional team is so confident when he comes up? Can he be in the starting lineup?" Coach Chen waved his hand, "There is no one at all."
"There is someone." Qiao Yanzhou suppressed a smile and looked at Coach Chen.
"Who?"
"Sit next to you, no, curl up one."
"Hi~"
Gu Zixing was curled up on the sofa and fighting landlords with his mobile phone. Hearing that the two of them were suddenly talking about him for some reason, he freed up one hand and waved at Coach Chen twice.
Coach Chen patted his hand away with a look of disgust.
"It's unnecessary to bring you here..."
Gu Zixing smiled and said nothing.
"Oh, that's right. I remember I heard that Xiao Qiao, you really like our Gu Zixing. You have liked us for several years."
As soon as Coach Chen said this, Qiao Yanzhou was taken aback for a moment.
What kind of enigmatic dialogue is this, as if a mother brought her silly son who knows how to fight landlords with a mobile phone if he can't marry a wife to a blind date.
"Coach Chen, what you said, how many people who play "Storm League" can't worship Siler?" In order to make this conversation less misleading, Qiao Yanzhou deliberately replaced "like" with "worship".
"Since that's the case, why don't you come to our team and try it first." Coach Chen smiled, "I heard that you are the anchor of the Yamao live broadcast, right?"
"right."
"How many years has it been broadcast?"
"Four or five years, it started when I was in high school."
"How long does the contract expire?"
"At the end of October this year, but I still want to renew my contract."
"Then did you participate in the ElegantGame e-sports competition when you were an anchor?"
"No." Qiao Yanzhou shook his head with a wry smile, "This game is so difficult, I heard it's no less valuable than a professional team."
"Actually, that's it. If you want to participate this year, I will register you when I go back."
Qiao Yanzhou was stunned for a moment. Although he had heard that Coach Chen was swift and swift in his work, he never expected to be so swift and swift.
The ElegantGame e-sports talent competition they just mentioned is actually a relevant selection competition for players organized by the EG e-sports club.
Why is it called such a name, because most of the contestants here are selected from the anchors of Yamao Live, and the opponents they have to fight against are the professional players of the EG team, and the EG e-sports club is the Yamao company. The team under the banner can be regarded as their own family beating their own family members, which is why they are called "the flood has washed the Dragon King Temple Cup".
For example, EG, a relatively old domestic team with deep qualifications, generally has a lot of airs. If anyone wants to join the team directly and unconditionally, it is absolutely impossible. However, in order to be able to widely recruit e-sports players, the EG team had to develop Such a tryout.
Trials are held every year, and 1~2 contestants will be selected to enter the EG team every year. This is different from the previous "e-sports talent training plan" planned by the EG team. Most of the talent training plans are set up to attract 12-year-old and 13-year-old minors who want to go professional e-sports. It is necessary to discover some players who are older but have a certain foundation.
"It's the plan and the mess of the game that messed up a bunch, and in the end it's not about getting the mid laner to the bottom lane."
This was Gu Zixing's incomparably pertinent and strongly persuasive evaluation of these two EG's large-scale activities at that time. That was the only time Coach Chen didn't refute his words after listening...
It may well be the last time.
But having said that, to be honest, as Qiao Yanzhou said, the gold content of this trial is indeed very high. For example, Yao Le's substitute and Fu Xiaohai's substitute for the currently active EG team were all selected through this trial.
In fact, Qiao Yanzhou wanted to give it a try when he was the anchor of Yamao a year ago, but then he stopped at the high registration fee.
At that time, he thought so, if he came to participate in this trial, he would not be able to live broadcast for at least a week, and then he would lose a month's salary. , There was no place to cry, so I simply gave up.
But what I didn't expect was that after many years, the coach and captain of EG found me and invited me to participate in the trials. This was something Qiao Yanzhou never expected.
It's really hard to find a place to go through iron shoes, and it doesn't take much effort to get it!
"Coach Chen, this news is a bit sudden to me, please allow me to think again."
In fact, after Qiao Yanzhou said this, he felt that he was pretentious enough. He obviously wanted to carry his luggage and run to the EG club, but in the end he just sat here and pretended to be reserved.
"I know, you are afraid that if you don't get selected in the trials, the live broadcast over there will be delayed, right?"
"A little bit." Qiao Yanzhou smiled, "I came out early, and basically supported myself after I became an adult. At present, the main source of income is live broadcasting."
"If you can make money from live broadcasting, it means that your skills are still good." Coach Chen nodded, "I saw your performance on stage today, and it was very good."
Qiao Yanzhou smiled.
"Generally, there are not many people who can go down the road with Gu Zixing like this. Yao Le counts as one, and you count as one."
"yes?"
Qiao Yanzhou felt strange at the time, there was nothing special when he and Gu Zixing walked down the road together, but when they got to other people, they all called Gu Zixing like a big devil.
"I figured it out, if you can enter the team this year, you probably have the opportunity to enter the starting lineup a few times."
Start! ? How many times! ? This condition is too tempting!
Qiao Yanzhou felt that his reserve could no longer be put on any longer.
"EG's record this year is not bad. After winning WG before, they ranked first in Group A." Coach Chen took a sip of the coffee on the table, "Think about it yourself."
"Well, I will definitely think about it seriously." If you think about it, let's go now, the fool will not agree!
"If you want to participate, you can come to EG for trial training at the beginning of next month, and the club will provide free board and lodging." Coach Chen said and stood up, "This is my business card with WeChat and mobile phone number on it, what do you do? How come it's convenient."
"Hey!"
"That's it for now. The team has a meeting when we go back tonight, so let's go first."
"Okay, thank you, Coach Chen." Qiao Yanzhou also stood up and sent Coach Chen and Gu Zixing out of the door.
Gu Zixing, who hadn't spoken much before leaving, was finally willing to raise his eyes from the phone, and said to Qiao Yanzhou with his mouth: "wait for you", then turned and left.
Looking at the backs of the two of them going away, Qiao Yanzhou held the business card that Coach Chen just handed over, as if holding a piece of gold in his hand.
Coach Chen's words just now still linger in his mind.
"I figured it out, if you can enter the team this year, you probably have the opportunity to enter the starting lineup a few times."
Qiao Yanzhou's thoughts at this moment have drifted to how he should hold the trophy to give a speech after winning the world championship, plus the phrase "wait for you" that Gu Zixing said to himself before leaving, even if it was just lip-synch, But it also made Qiao Yanzhou feel extremely relieved.
"Do you think it's the Oscars? You, and you still give a speech. Why don't you go to the United Nations Parliament to give a speech if you are so awesome."
This was the first sentence Liang Dong uttered after listening to Qiao Yanzhou explain all his inner thoughts, or in other words, after he had gone crazy in the hotel.
"Lingzi, go and see if the ceiling is strong, some people are going to be up to the sky."
This is the second sentence.
When Gu Zixing, Coach Chen and the others returned to the EG club, it was already completely dark. Gu Zixing just fell asleep in the car, but now he was picked up suddenly and still felt dizzy as if he had been drunk.
"I think Qiao Yanzhou is quite stable in his work, not so reckless." Coach Chen said to Gu Zixing as he walked to the meeting room, "If it were someone else, they might have agreed without even thinking about it."
"Um."
"It's not bad. I can still trust your eyesight."
"Um."
He answered Coach Chen with two "hmm" in succession because Gu Zixing was really too lazy to talk when he was sleepy.
"If he really comes to the team, he can live with you." Coach Chen's tone didn't sound like he was asking for Gu Zixing's opinion, but rather like an order, "The room in the team is so tense, why don't you give it to yourself?" It’s unreasonable for people to occupy a single room.”
"???" Coach Chen's words woke up Gu Zixing from his doze.
Gu Zixing has an insomnia physique, and he can't fall asleep as long as there is a little movement at night, so in order not to affect the next day's training team, he has been arranged to live in a single room alone for several years. Get someone in.
"It's not certain whether they will come or not, so don't be so excited." Seeing that Gu Zixing's face was turning green, Coach Chen quickly calmed down the team members.
"Even if you come, why do you have to stay here..."
Gu Zixing still didn't understand, or he deliberately didn't want to understand.
Coach Chen looked up at Gu Zixing.
"The people you brought in, if they don't live with you, who will they live with?"
