Xu Yiyang didn't have much expectations for going to Hong Kong for exchange. Even if he went there, he would probably just get by.
However, Hu Bingwen seemed a little impatient for this, so Xu Yiyang couldn't dampen his enthusiasm and could only act as if he was quite interested.
After dinner at Hu Bingwen's house, the two sat for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, Xu Yiyang left politely.
Before leaving, Hu Bingwen's son-in-law Zhang Haidong insisted on exchanging mobile phone numbers with him. Although Xu Yiyang was reluctant, he did not refuse.
Back in the dormitory, Zhang Haidong's text message was sent.
He said that home appliances are indeed a good investment choice at this stage, and he hoped that Xu Yiyang would seriously consider his proposal for cooperation.
He also said that if Xu Yiyang was interested, the capital contribution would be 5:5 and the income would be 5:5. Xu Yiyang would not have to take care of anything, he would be fully responsible.
But Xu Yiyang is not interested. He doesn't like Zhang Haidong very much. He feels that he is eager for quick success and not stable enough.
When working with such a person, even if he is not careful, it will be very difficult to pull him up, so there is no need to feel uncomfortable.
Then Xu Yiyang told him that he invested all his money in Internet cafes and several subsequent training institutions. Not only did he invest all his cash, he also took out a lot of loans from banks.
Zhang Haidong wondered why Xu Yiyang needed loans to open several branches with an income of one million yuan a month.
Xu Yiyang told him that all the shops in his branch were purchased, so the investment was huge.
Zhang Haidong immediately commented and felt that Xu Yiyang's decision was a big mistake. Now that housing prices in small cities are sluggish, it is better to rent than to buy. The remaining money can be used to invest in other projects, flexibly allocate assets, and manage finances rationally.
Xu Yiyang sneered at his tactics.
Rather than buying, renting? From this point alone, it can be seen that Zhang Haidong has no economic acumen and vision.
In the next dozen years, these four words will deceive many house slaves who had the opportunity to get on the bus earlier.
Such a theory seems to make sense when analyzed at the moment, but the trajectory of real estate development will run counter to these four words.
In the next ten years or so, if domestic real estate can be summed up in one sentence, it is not that buying is inferior to renting, but that the sooner you buy, the better.
However, Xu Yiyang knew the character traits of a "professional critic" like him and did not argue with him. He said directly: "Brother Zhang is right. I never thought of it before. I really regret it now. But there is nothing I can do. Money is all gone." It’s invested, we can only wait until later.”
Zhang Haidong said: "If you have enough money and are interested in investing in this project, please contact me at any time."
Xu Yiyang readily agreed out of politeness.
…
In the next few days, because the CS team competition was about to begin, the popularity of the New Century Forum also increased.
Because in a short period of time, everyone is paying attention to the follow-up of the CS team's game, the number of forum users continues to increase.
By Thursday, the number of registered users on the forum had exceeded 50,000, and at around 8pm, the highest number of online users exceeded 10,000.
For several days in a row, Xu Yiyang gave gifts several times in the chat area, no longer once a day, but five times a day, starting at six o'clock in the afternoon, once every hour, until ten o'clock in the evening.
Most of the gifts given are small gifts, most of which are cassettes, including genuine cassettes of Princess Wang, Yang Qianhua, and Nicholas Tse, which girls like, as well as experience cards for Internet cafes.
Xu Yiyang didn't spend much money, but netizens were very enthusiastic about buying properties, and the popularity was always overwhelming.
In order to further increase his popularity, Xu Yiyang released a blockbuster news after his last shopping spree on Thursday night. At 20:00 tomorrow night, he will give away a brand new Nokia mobile phone worth 3,000 yuan on the forum!
The lottery method is very simple. Whoever grabs the 8888th floor will get this mobile phone!
It is almost unheard of to use a mobile phone that costs 3,000 yuan to win a free lottery draw. If you send text messages to interact with a TV station to draw a lottery, the consultation fee will be one yuan.
Because Xu Yiyang sent gifts many times in a row and many people successfully received the gifts, netizens on the forum also trusted him very much.
As long as you reply, you will have a chance to get a mobile phone worth 3,000 yuan. Naturally, college students are eager to get involved and can’t wait.
Because of the continuous gift-giving activities, the popularity of the forum has remained high. As soon as the news about giving away mobile phones was released, it attracted a lot of people's attention.
Now, the chat area and flea market of the entire forum are very popular. In addition, the team recruitment section is also very popular.
In order to quickly grab a spot, many teams just gathered a few people and signed up. Then when everyone started training, they discovered that every team had at least one or two unsatisfactory players.
So everyone began to hastily recruit other team members based on their respective shortcomings.
Tong Yuewei also posted her own request for a team in this forum. The post was titled "Chinese and overseas female snipers request a team, they are super powerful!" 》
The three teams that China Overseas has grabbed the registration spots are very poor. They are almost 300 yards away and dare to use trolls to fight against each other. Everyone knows that their strength is too weak and they are in urgent need of a strong one. The experts led the way, so the three teams rushed to contact her and took her to the New Century Internet Cafe to test the waters. As a result, after this test, the three teams all rushed to get her.
There aren't many girls who can play gun games well, but just because there aren't many doesn't mean there aren't.
Some girls are also very talented in gaming. Although they may be a little behind the world's top e-sports athletes in terms of hand speed and awareness, girls who play well can kill most boys in an instant.
Tong Yuewei has been interested in computer games for a long time, and her family is in good condition, so she has played all kinds of popular games since a few years ago.
When she was in high school, she played StarCraft online at an Internet cafe near Chongwen Middle School and was almost invincible.
It is unimaginable that a girl like her would be very cunning and shameless in her tactics when playing games. She would fight against the self-taught puppies in the interstellar world. She would fight to the death with her opponents as soon as they came up. If you don't die, I will die.
This method of gameplay was invincible among the middle school students at that time, and many boys were willing to lose.
It's hard to imagine a girl playing such a style, but it has a lot to do with Tong Yuewei's character.
Except for meeting Xu Yiyang, Tong Yuewei is almost a girl who never hesitates in doing things. She is extremely straightforward and decisive.
In StarCraft, such a character means that you will never follow the opponent, attack with all your strength, and strive to kill the enemy with one blow;
The same character was placed in CS, and she fell in love with the B46, which can kill the enemy with one hit, which is the AWP.
In addition to this gun, there is also a Desert Eagle, which is very suitable for killing enemies in one shot, and is also Tong Yuewei's favorite.
Whether she is a police officer or a gangster, her 800-yuan outfit is always a Desert Eagle, and she loves to shoot headshots with a gun.
Since she had passed the admission test at China Overseas College early, she had been playing with these two guns very well this summer. She occasionally went to the Internet cafe to play on the LAN without a password. As soon as she entered, she would rank first on the kill list. immortal.
After showing her strength in front of the three teams in the school, Tong Yuewei began to have a headache because of the weak strength of these three teams.
To be fair, these three teams are basically at entry level.
Some are all parallel importers and all are masters of human body drawing.
When fighting hand to hand, Tong Yuewei can even kill the opponent's gunman with a knife.
In her opinion, these three teams are beyond her reach, and she will be completely held back by cooperating with them.
But she had no other choice. There were very few boys in China and abroad, and even if she wanted to find a master, she couldn't find one.
If I want to participate in this competition, I can only choose from these three teams.
In desperation, she finally chose a team formed in her third year of college called KOCS.
King Of Counter-Strike, the tone is simply endless.
Tong Yuewei strongly suggested that everyone change their names, but was rejected by all the juniors.
They feel that this second-tier name can protect them all the way to the finals.
But Tong Yuewei knew very well that if this kind of team encountered the perverts from Polytechnic University and Jiaotong University, they would be brutally beaten.
But she didn't expect to win the championship. It was enough to make Xu Yiyang look at her with admiration.
…
Since the game started on Saturday morning, on Friday, many people on the forum began to ask if they could watch the game live.
Xu Yiyang saw that everyone was very enthusiastic about watching the game, so he decided to use the ten computers to open the viewing angle in the lobby on the second floor. In each game, several viewing cameras would be opened for both participating parties, and no more than 120 spectators would be invited. Watch the battle live.
In order to be fair and just, the spectators also have requirements. For example, four teams compete in two rooms each time. Each team has 20 invitation quotas. The remaining 40 quotas can be registered in the forum on a first-come, first-served basis.
Moreover, after each game, the audience must leave and are not allowed to participate in the second round of watching the game, because there are still second round spectators in the second round.
Xu Yiyang asked Chen Meng to buy one hundred and forty small plastic stools. The ten machines in the lobby on the second floor are arranged five on the left and five on the right. Therefore, there are seventy machines behind the computer on the left and seventy behind the computer on the right. When the time comes, each team will Friends and classmates can choose to watch from the perspective of their respective teams.
When the war started, four teams were playing downstairs, and the 120 spectators upstairs could sit on small benches and watch the fun. After all, it was not a professional e-sports competition, and many details could not be taken into account, so we had to make do with it first.
The 20 positions of Duo Fu are just in case of emergencies.
By Friday afternoon, the sixty-four teams in the first round had already filled their quota of spectators, and the forum had already been filled up.
Xu Yiyang asked Li Yiming and Zhang Junnan to register the forum ID numbers of all successfully registered spectators and print them out. When the audience arrives, they will report their ID numbers and go to the second floor to watch the game.
During the game, there are two referees in each game.
In fact, there are no actual rules for the game in general. The rules are all set in the game, and there are no CS plug-ins now. The referee's task is to count the results, supervise everyone's camp changes, and coordinate on-site discipline.
Communication between players is allowed during the game, but players whose characters have died are not allowed to speak before the start of the next round.
The referees were selected by Xu Yiyang from several boys in his class who were good at playing CS. When the time came, Chen Meng and Zhang Junnan, two guys who liked CS, would each bring a classmate to be the referee.
As for the order of the competition, it has already been announced on the website. Since COSCO’s KOCS team was the first team to sign up, they were naturally ranked in the first round of the first round of the group knockout.
