When Chu Yan came to the office, Liu Chuan was arranging the materials on the table, and when he saw him, he raised his head and said, "Director Chu, you sit down first, I'll call Xiao Han and Qin Mo over, and we'll have a face-to-face interview later. "Chu Yan didn't sit down, but went straight to Liu Chuan, and asked in a low voice, "When did Zhu Qingyue come to Longyin?"
Liu Chuan stopped what he was doing and said, "Shortly after the Qingmu team disbanded, Xiao Han and Qin Mo signed him here, don't you know?"
Chu Yan raised his eyebrows lightly: "Didn't you bring him here?"
Liu Chuan smiled innocently: "Of course not. I have nothing to do with your apprentice joining Mo Jue. It was Xiao Han and Qin Mo who persuaded him together." Liu Chuan got up and poured a glass of water for Chu Yan, and then said : "There is one more thing I have to make clear to you. The Mo Jue team is not a team under the Longyin Club. I don't care. Qin Mo and Xiao Han are the actual people in charge, and I am just the major shareholder."
"...Really?" Chu Yan took a sip from the water glass, then sat down on the sofa, and said calmly, "So, it was Xiao Han and Qin Mo who brought him to Mojue?"
"Well, at that time, the Mo Jue team was in need of support. After seeing the news of the disbandment of the Qingmu team, Xiao Han and Qin Mo immediately acted and went to Wuhan to persuade Zhu Qingyue to come over. I only found out after the fact." Liu Chuan After a pause, he carefully observed Chu Yan's expression, "Why... are you unhappy?"
"No." Chu Yan shook his head, "It's just a little unexpected."
Looking at his complicated eyes, Liu Chuan wisely didn't ask any further questions, and directly called Xiao Han to ask them to come over.
Xiao Han and Qin Mo came to the conference room soon, but Chu Yan didn't mention Zhu Qingyue again. He took out the contract from his briefcase with a serious and business-like attitude, and explained to them the responsibilities and obligations of both parties. Obligations, endorsement fees and other terms, let the two carefully review the contract.
After carefully reading the contract, Qin Mo asked, "The product endorsement is handed over to Team Mojue. Don't you need to specify in the contract which players are they?"
Chu Yandao: "The intention of the company is to ask your twin stars to endorse the two main products of VR glasses and home projection equipment, and there are other series of products that can be handed over to other team members. For example, the products developed by our company are connected with Dubujianghu If the touch-screen control panel, matching game keyboard, mouse, etc. are all handed over to you two, on the one hand you will be too busy, and on the other hand the audience will be fatigued.”
This also makes sense, if the commercials filmed by Gemini are inserted in every game, the audience will definitely get tired of watching it, and it happens to allow other players to show their faces.
Qin Mo said: "Except for me and Xiao Han, the other contestants want to find out who they want to shoot for which product's advertisement. I hope to make a decision as soon as possible and write all the details into the contract."
Seeing Qin Mo's serious gaze, Chu Yan couldn't help being a little surprised. He didn't expect that the arrogant little prince is now so responsible and considerate of the team members. His request was very reasonable, and Chu Yan had nothing to hesitate. He nodded and said, "No problem, this is just the main contract, and there will be additional clauses later. We will write down in detail the products each player will endorse and the endorsement fee."
Qin Mo put away the contract: "Then wait until all the additional terms are finalized before signing."
Chu Yan nodded, and said, "I want to meet all the members of the Mojue team, so that I can decide who will endorse which products. Is it convenient?"
It's normal for the advertiser to meet the team members, but Qin Mo hesitated for a while considering Zhu Qingyue's factors.
Chu Yan saw through his thoughts at a glance, and said: "I have already met Qingyue, you don't have to worry about it, this time it's just a business cooperation."
Qin Mo nodded and said, "Okay then, I'll make arrangements."
***
After a while, Qin Mo and Xiao Han accompanied Chu Yan to the training room.
Seeing sisters Liu Xiang and Liu Hong, Chu Yan's eyes flashed with surprise, and Liu Xiang smiled with a good temper and said, "God Chu, long time no see."
Chu Yan smiled at her, then looked back at Han Mo and the two of them: "Your Mo Jue team's lineup is really luxurious."
Xiao Han said bluntly: "Of course, adding Qingyue will make it more luxurious."
Qin Mo briefly introduced him: "Liu Hong is Sister Xiang's younger sister; these four Shen He, Li Muran, Pei Yu and He Beiguang are all newcomers." Seeing that Zhu Qingyue was not in the training room, Qin Mo couldn't help asking: " Where's Qingyue?"
Liu Hongdao: "He went shopping at noon, got caught in the rain, and said he would come right after taking a shower..."
Just as he was talking, a young man walked into the training room quickly. He changed his clothes. The tailored trousers made his legs look extra slender. His upper body was a thin light blue cashmere sweater. There was a smile with a gentle and elegant temperament, but that smile froze immediately after meeting Chu Yan's gaze, and the expression on his face suddenly felt a little bewildered.
Obviously, he didn't expect the master to come to the training room, and he didn't know what expression to face this person for a moment.
The atmosphere in the training room was very embarrassing, Qin Mo took the initiative to break the siege and said, "Hey, Qingyue, let me introduce that Director Chu's company is going to cooperate with our Mojue team to endorse a series of products, and he came here today to talk to us about it. "
Zhu Qingyue finally understood the reason why he saw Master in the club, and with a soft "oh", he walked over and stood behind Qin Mo.
Chu Yan's gaze has been on Zhu Qingyue since he appeared, and it was not until he hid behind Qin Mo that Chu Yan withdrew his gaze and said, "I probably understand the situation of Mo Jue, Qin Mo, turn around and tell me Email a copy of all the contestants' information, including height and weight. It is best to bring a recent photo. I will arrange it as soon as possible after I return to the company. This month, everyone needs to cooperate to take some promotional photos, and I will shoot a video later. , everyone may have to work hard for a while. Of course, the endorsement fee will not treat you badly."
Qin Mo said: "No problem. However, I hope that each shooting task can be completed within half a day as much as possible, and we have to train for the remaining half day."
Chu Yan said clearly: "Understood, try not to delay your training progress." He looked down at his watch and said, "I have a meeting in the afternoon, so don't bother me, I will call another day."
"Okay, goodbye." Qin Mo politely sent him out. When Chu Yan walked to the door, he suddenly turned his head and met Zhu Qingyue's sneaky gaze at him. Those eyes were wet, and seemed to contain some grievances that his master ignored him. Chu Yan's back stiffened slightly, and he didn't stop After saying more, he turned his head and left the training room quickly.
…
After Chu Yan left, Qin Mo returned to the training room, and saw Zhu Qingyue hanging his head, looking very depressed.
Qin Mo sighed inwardly, patted him on the shoulder lightly, and said, "Don't be sad...he has a meeting this afternoon, so he's too busy to catch up with you."
Zhu Qingyue smiled helplessly: "There's no need to explain to him, he just doesn't want to talk to me, maybe he's still angry with me."
Qin Mo really wanted to comfort him, but Zhu Qingyue quickly regained his composure and said, "It's okay, let's continue training."
Although Shen He was extremely curious, seeing Zhu Qingyue's gloomy expression, he didn't dare to ask any more questions, and secretly sent a private chat to Qin Mo: "Master! I remember that God Chu is the master of Great God Qing, right? Why is he like a stranger?"
Qin Mo replied, "Don't meddle in your own business."
Shen He sent a row of smiling faces: "O(∩_∩)O~oh!"
Qin Mo let Shen He, Li Muran, and Zhu Qingyue join the team to play a five-player qualifying match, while Liu Hong took Pei Yu and He Beiguang to practice in the ring.
During the qualifying match, Zhu Qingyue was out of shape all the time, and the auxiliary lineup was a bit messy. Fortunately, Xiao Han and Qin Mo in the front row were strong enough, and the opponents they encountered were of average level. Everyone won a few team battles smoothly. Qin Mo disbanded the team and asked Shen He, Li Muran, Pei Yu, and He Beiguang to play double volleyball and practice pairing.
Qin Mo called Zhu Qingyue out alone, handed him a business card, and said softly: "Qingyue, although I don't know what is wrong with your master, it has become a fact that your senior brother formed the Qingyu team , Qingyu team has your master behind the scenes to guide you, you will definitely face them in the arena in the future. I hope you can untie these knots, relax and play with us, okay?"
Meeting his concerned gaze, Zhu Qingyue lowered his head a little ashamedly: "I know, I will settle this matter as soon as possible. This business card...is he giving you?"
Qin Mo nodded: "Well, there are all his contact information on it. Since he doesn't want to contact you, you can also take the initiative to contact him. Chu Yan is not such a stingy person. If you have any problems, just make it clear."
Zhu Qingyue smiled slightly: "Okay. I'll take the initiative to contact him and ask."
***
After returning to the dormitory after training in the evening, Zhu Qingyue sat by the bed, took out his mobile phone and searched the mobile phone number on the business card in WeChat, and sure enough, he saw an account bound to the mobile phone, the name was CY0521, and the profile picture was a pine tree. May 21st is Chu Yan's birthday, and this account is obviously his own. Zhu Qingyue took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to send a verification message—Master, I am Qingyue.
Chu Yan was processing work emails in front of the computer. When he received the verification on his mobile phone, he was slightly taken aback and ignored it for the time being. He put the phone aside and continued to read the data in the email.
The data in the email was gradually blurred, but the scene when I met Zhu Qingyue outside the club today clearly appeared in front of my eyes—that guy was dripping wet all over, and looked a bit embarrassed, but his eyes were clear and beautiful. Zhongman was panic-stricken, like a little white rabbit accidentally breaking into the forest.
There seemed to be water in his eyes, exactly the same as when we first met.
The more Chu Yan thought about it, the more irritable he became. He simply closed the browser, rubbed his swollen and painful temples vigorously, and glanced at the phone. Seeing the obvious verification message, he sighed inwardly, picked up the phone and pressed " Accept", opened the chat window, and found that Zhu Qingyue's avatar hadn't been changed for several years—it was a Q-version big head drawn for him by Qingmu's fans, and his eyes were so teary that he almost cried, because he had a nickname called "Little crying bag", he didn't mind this dark history, so he took this picture as his profile picture.
Zhu Qingyue saw that the other party had passed the friend application, and immediately sent a sentence cautiously: "Master..."
Chu Yan didn't know what his ellipsis was trying to express, so he frowned and said, "Say."
Zhu Qing made a tearful expression: "How are you all these years? I miss you very much [crying]"
This emoji is also a series of emojis given to him by fans. He has always saved it in his mobile phone, and he can't put it down.
When Chu Yan saw this sentence, his heart softened all of a sudden, and he clutched the phone tightly to resist the urge to reply to him. After a long time, he typed a word: "Oh."
Zhu Qingyue: "..."
Oh what do you mean
He mustered up the courage to send two sentences, but he only replied with "Say" and "Oh", looking very cold and impatient.
Zhu Qingyue felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, took a deep breath, and simply sent a voice over.
Chu Yan looked at a long series of voices popping up on the phone, hesitated for a moment, and pressed the play button, and a soft voice sounded in his ear—
"Master, after you retired, I have been leading the Qingmu team according to your philosophy. If you change your number and don't contact me, I dare not bother you... I have missed you very much for the past three years, but the team has not had good results." , I dare not look for you, the team finally disbanded, I was useless, I am really sorry... But, I have tried my best, and the players don't want to continue, let them find another way out, it is better than continuing to waste in the league Time, so I disbanded the team, and my own state is not as good as before. I originally planned to find another job after retiring, but Xiao Han and Qin Mo came to me and said that the game of Dubu Jianghu does not require so much opponent speed , plus I was not reconciled, so I followed them to Team Mojue."
Followed by another long series of voices: "I don't really understand. What did I do wrong that made you so disgusted and disgusted with me? Is it because I didn't listen to your persuasion to go to another club?" But, Qingmu is your painstaking effort, I am your apprentice, I am the captain of Qingmu team, how can I transfer to another club... After you retired, I have always insisted on leading Qingmu team, I just don’t want your Efforts are in vain. There are so many strong teams in the league, and my ability is limited. I failed to win the trophy with Qing Mu. I am sorry for you, but I have tried my best. Master, can you just tell me? What is it that made you so angry? ? You don’t want to talk to me for three years?”
Hearing the soft voice beside his ears, Chu Yan clenched his fingers tighter and tighter, almost crushing the phone.
- It's not you who's wrong, it's me.
—However, with what face should I tell you that Master has thought about you that he shouldn't have
—You trust me so much, rely on me, and regard me as the most reliable and respected master, but do you know? Zhu Qingyue, your master is actually not as good as a beast. He watched you grow up day by day, and watched you gradually grow from a little crying bag under the age of sixteen to a gentle and gentle boy, and he gradually developed bad intentions towards you.
——When you looked at him with serious admiration, what he thought was to press you on the bed and bully you until you cried aloud.
- Do you still dare to recognize such a beastly master
Chu Yan smiled self-deprecatingly, picked up the phone and pressed voice, and replied: "Qingyue, when I retired, our master-student relationship was over. I have already left the league and am no longer an e-sports player. I have my work and life, so I have no reason to guide you. You disband Qingmu and choose the Mo Jue team, these are all your business, you can do whatever you like in the future, it has nothing to do with me."
Zhu Qingyue listened to the deep voice coming from the mobile phone, it was still a familiar tone, but it was as cold as ice.
You are retired and not an e-sports player, so what your apprentice does has nothing to do with you? So what is my persistence all these years
Zhu Qing fell into a sad silence, and after a while, he called: "Then why do you care about what senior brother is doing, and help him form Qingyu team?"
Chu Yan was startled: "You know everything about Luo Yuan?"
Zhu Qingyue typed: "I asked him, and he told me himself."
Chu Yan frowned and said: "Luo Yuan's family had an accident back then, and he left with regrets after not being able to play a game. He is not as popular as you, nor does he have so much game experience as you. If I don't help him, he will form a team." There will be many difficulties. I happened to meet him in Changsha last time, so I helped him out."
Zhu Qingyue said: "Of course you care about senior brother and help him build a team, but I hope you can also care about me a little bit. Although you have retired and are no longer an e-sports player, you will always be me in my heart." Master, I have really missed you these past few years, and I often dream of you [tearful]."
Seeing this line of small characters, and looking at the familiar expression of the little crying bag at the end, Chu Yan's fingers stiffened suddenly, and he picked up the phone and said sharply: "Qingyue, you have grown up, you are not the child you were back then, don't say These words provoke me!"
Zhu Qingyue originally wanted to show cuteness to make Master soft-hearted. He had done this before when Master was angry. He sent a row of crying emoticons to show cuteness, and Master immediately softened and forgave him. As a result, this time, not only did Chu Yan not forgive, but his voice sounded very angry, as if he was forcibly suppressing something and was about to explode. Zhu Qingyue was startled by his voice, and immediately replied with a text message with trembling hands: "Master, don't be angry, I won't provoke you anymore. Sleep first, good night."
Chu Yan didn't reply, so Zhu Qingyue had no choice but to close WeChat.
I don't know what kind of anger Master was born with? The Qingmu team's performance is not good. This is something Chu Yan knew when he was in the team. Why should he anger his apprentice
Zhu Qingyue lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling, thinking back to the past, his nose couldn't help but feel a little sore.
He has joined the Qingmu team since he was very young. Chu Yan is his master. He not only taught him how to play as a support, but also took care of him meticulously in life. He regards Chu Yan as the closest person , His affection for Chu Yan is even closer than that of his cousin.
Obviously a good master and apprentice, why did it become like this? Zhu Qingyue really couldn't figure it out.
