Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

After eating, the leaders of the two clubs took the players to the Internet cafe they looked forward to to inspect the training venue.

Zhao Xuming did not go with them, and stayed in the hotel’s lounge area and took out his laptop to work.

Of course, office work is only one of the reasons, and another reason is that Zhao Xuming is too lazy to mix these things. In his opinion, he has done his best to achieve the present level, and he almost broke his mentality. I want to visit Zhitou, but I don't want to continue mingling with these e-sports clubs.

The distance from the Internet cafe to the hotel is moderate, about 15 minutes' walk away.

The two team leaders felt that this distance was not too far, and that a walk could give the team members some activities and see the city scenery of Los Angeles, so they went on foot.

After eating and drinking, walking on the land of a foreign country, the players' mentality of being collapsed by the FV club's Weibo has gradually improved.

Although this is the city center, it doesn't have the suffocating feeling of being too cramped and full of skyscrapers, so it feels good to walk around the street.

"Just ahead, we will be here soon." The translator looked at the phone map and pointed forward.

The players also looked over, the first feeling is that this Internet cafe is so big!

In China, Internet cafes occupying such a large area are not very common.

The second feeling is, why does this minibus parked at the door look so familiar?

The leaders of the two clubs glanced at each other, and an ominous premonition came into being.

It's not over, right?How come there are FV clubs everywhere!

The two of them wanted to turn their heads on the spot and left, but after another thought, there was an Internet cafe nearby with better conditions. What should I do if the machine configuration or the network is not working when I go to another Internet cafe?

So everyone hesitated, but bit the bullet and entered.

After pushing the door open, what appeared in front of everyone was a huge hall with rows of computers.

Internet cafes here are obviously different from domestic Internet cafes. First of all, the decoration style is rougher. There are various intricate pipes on the ceiling, and all the computer hosts are placed on a shelf that is more than two meters high. Secondly, there seems to be no concept of a private room here. There is only a huge hall on the entire first floor.

The two team leaders took a look. There were many people playing games in the lobby, some of them were playing ioi and some were playing GOG. A rough scan of the number of people was about 50-50, and many people were playing FPS games.

There are many vacancies in the hall.

The computer configuration is good, and the seats are all famous foreign brands of gaming chairs. The only drawback may be that the keyboard and mouse are not good and slightly dirty, but the players all bring their own peripherals, so this is not a problem.

The two team leaders were quite satisfied with the environment, so they went to the front desk with the translator to ask for the price.

"It's expensive...10 dollars an hour, but only 20 dollars a day for charter flights. This must be a charter flight."

"Hey, why didn't I see the people from the FV club, did the minibus admit it wrong?"

The two team leaders quickly reached a consensus that it must be more cost-effective to charter a flight, but the specific position of the package became a key issue.

The interpreter wanted to bargain with the boss to see if there are any discounts for so many people chartering the plane together.The two team leaders split up around the hall to see which place is more suitable.

It's a pity that the area of ​​this hall is too big, and no area will be affected slightly.

A team leader turned around and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Hey? Doesn't this have a second floor?"

When he saw a staircase, he wondered if he could go to the second floor to have a look. If the environment on the second floor is better and more private, even more money will do.

As a result, as soon as I walked up the stairs to the second floor, I saw four tall and strong men in black suits lined up and reached out to stop him.

"SORRY, @#%*……"

The four bodyguards in black suits quickly spoke a long list of English, making the team leader confused.

But this battle still shocked him. After all, the four bodyguards are all black suits, walkie-talkies, and a pair of sunglasses in the chest pocket. Their muscles are high and bulging, similar to the gangsters in European and American movies. .

The team leader’s English was not good, and I couldn’t understand what they were talking about. Fortunately, the translator quickly followed, and after talking to the four black bodyguards, he quickly understood.

"It is said that the entire second floor is wrapped up." The translator explained.

The team leader frowned slightly and his expression was a little suspicious. He stood on tiptoe desperately, his eyes passed the four brawny men who were nearly two meters tall, and he saw the players of the FV club.

"dry!"

The team leader couldn't help but burst into foul language, and the bad premonition came true!

These machines upstairs are all occupied seven or eighty-eight. FV club first team and second team plus five people from SUG club total 15 people, but there are also entourage and data analysis team.

The data analysis team also needs to use a computer to watch the battle and analyze the data. Even the three big photographers are using the computer to edit and edit the pictures.

The leader and the translator had to return to the first floor in silence.

"What should I do? Change places, or..." The translator asked the two team leaders for their opinions.

The team leader sighed: "Just here, let's pick a position that is close to the corner and away from the stairs..."

The configuration and location of this Internet cafe are the most satisfying, so it is not easy to change.But you must stay away from the FV club, otherwise the scene should be quite awkward.

The two team leaders quickly completed the formalities and arranged for the team members to board the plane.

"Come on, everyone, please change your peripherals. I have already sent you the official super account of the finger company, and you can pick it up. Let’s play RANK Hot Hand today, and we will arrange a training match with European and American teams in two days. of."

Seeing the team members log in to the super accounts and start training, the two team leaders sat down, feeling better at last.

At least I know that the FV club should not have a super account, which means that they can't play RANK, and if there is no official matchmaking, there should be no channels to make appointments with other European and American teams.

"Come on, everyone, train hard, and you must get good results!"

The players said in unison: "Good!"

...

Friday, December 23.

In the morning, Pei Qian was drinking coffee and swiping his mobile phone while catching fish.

"The FV club has arrived in Los Angeles and has so many Weibo updates?"

"Fuck, how good are the board and lodging conditions? I regret not going..."

"Forget it, there is nothing good abroad."

"Huh? Why did it seem to have been sprayed? How many melons I missed after I slept."

When Pei Qian woke up, it was already night in Los Angeles. The FV club had posted several Weibo posts, from boarding the plane to staying in the hotel to the beginning of training, sending a lot of pictures and videos.

After all, the three photographers accompany the whole process, and there is nothing other than taking pictures and editing films, so they have to work hard to brush their presence.

The initial Weibo was still mainly photos, and even short edited videos appeared behind it.

Obviously the cut was done in an Internet cafe.

There are photos of delicious food, and there are high-level photos of the entire Los Angeles and competition venues, including the four bodyguards in black suits.

Even Pei Qian looked a little envious, one can imagine how other people feel.

At the bottom of Weibo, most of them are envious, jealous and hateful, but there are also many disharmonious voices on the forum.

"My God, is it in Los Angeles? How come there are so many people?"

"SUG club followed? What happened?"

"Where are the other two teams?"

"Business class? It should be quite expensive, isn't it? Pointing to the company is open and bright, and is reporting a business class ticket?"

"Fuck, staying at the Ritz-Carlton? This is already the most expensive hotel around there, right?"

"I'm sour!"

"What's the situation with these four black-clad bodyguards...what about this movie? Does the finger company return bodyguards? Every team has it?"

"I remember that the Weibo of FV Club used to post a Weibo only one or two weeks ago. Why is it so productive all of a sudden?"

"Fuck! Someone broke the news just now, this was not arranged by the finger company at all! All these expenses, including air tickets, hotels, bodyguards, are at FV Club's own expense!"

"At your own expense? How much does it cost!"

"Co-authoring this Weibo is completely showing off?"

"Do these bells and whistles before you get the results! Is this deliberately trying to engage other teams?"

"As we all know, the more farts off the court, the worse the results. After enjoying so many conditions, if the results are not good at that time, my brothers will go to death with me!"

"Most of this money was given by President Pei? But isn't Pei always spoiling these players too much? With such good conditions, is it really a trip?"

At the beginning, everyone thought that this was a unified arrangement by the finger company, but soon discovered that it was not the case at all, and the other teams did not have this treatment at all!

So many fans of other teams just couldn't accept it.

On the one hand, I feel that FV clubs are treated so much better than other clubs, and I am a bit jealous; on the other hand, many people subconsciously associate good material conditions with greed for enjoyment.

Although the e-sports industry is constantly developing and the benefits are gradually getting better, let alone those who do not play games, even many players and audiences feel that e-sports players are not worthy of good treatment.

Instead, many people miss the days when e-sports players slept on the road and ate cold water instant noodles to win the championship.

Of course, there are indeed some players who have become bloated due to better material conditions, and have lost the game due to inadequate training. Therefore, seeing that the conditions of the FV club players are so good, many people feel uncomfortable instinctively and published on the forum. Some not so harmonious voices.

Pei Qian was not angry at all, but watched with gusto.

Yes, sunspots hurry up and step up!

Black out the FV club, suppress the club’s enthusiasm, and let all the money I spend is lost!

The team members are under unified management of their mobile phones, and they cannot use the forums. The comments on Weibo and forums by the fans should not affect their mentality, but at least it can attack the image of the FV club?

When the World Championship is not played well, it will definitely be spoiled. This club cannot attract investment or sell a good price. The club shares in Pei Qian's hands will not increase in price, and all the money spent will be in vain...

Isn't it beautiful?
