Li Huailin didn't know what happened to Su Ruoyan and Jiang Xueping because the competition had already begun. When he came to the spectator area, all the contestants were waiting for the first match to begin.
"Alright, everyone, please return to your seats. Please be quiet." The host, Liu Su, also received the notice and was ready to announce the start of the competition. However, while the audience sat down, he took the opportunity to introduce the three guests for today.
The commentary platform configuration for the finals was the same as the previous season. It was still the same configuration of three guests and two hosts. Of course, two of the three guests were very easy to guess. After all, most guests signed a contract with GVS television station for the entire season. Therefore, the former professional player Jing Long and the game writer, Drifting Past, should not be a problem. The only problem was that there was one more person.
Why was there one less guest? Of course, this had something to do with Li Huailin. The remaining guest from the previous season was the former professional player, Xiang Nong. Because she spoke too carelessly, she accidentally provoked Li Huailin. Li Huailin also helped her earn nearly a hundred million yuan. However, because of this unclear reason, Xiang Nong was thought to deliberately lower the odds and said bad things about Li Huailin.
After that, Xiang Nong was naturally besieged by a large number of netizens who did not know the situation. The number of fans plummeted. Basically, the people who were still in Xiang Nong's fan group were the true loves of her. However, they were now embarrassed to say that they were Xiang Nong's fans because the name was really smelly.
Of course, after the incident, Xiang Nong quickly took remedial measures. The first was naturally to call the police. Of course, she did not know what the situation was. She did not even know who framed her. Unfortunately, after calling the police, the police could not do anything. If you lost money, the police could still investigate it. You inexplicably earned more than eighty million yuan. How could they investigate it?
The result of calling the police was that Xiang Nong was investigated. Although these were all income obtained through formal gambling channels, because the amount was too large, the police suspected that she was involved in misleading the audience and profiteering for herself. This made Xiang Nong really angry. In order to prove her innocence, Xiang Nong directly donated more than 80 million yuan to the Hua Xia Red Cross. She thought that this could prove her innocence, but soon people thought that she was forced to do so, so she could only pretend to be a good person.
Xiang Nong was really at her wit's end. She could only hide and wait for the wind to subside. Just like that, Xiang Nong pushed away all her work and began to live in seclusion. Of course, there was no need for her to refuse work. The TV station directly announced that they had contacted her about the contract and were willing to pay the penalty for breach of contract. Xiang Nong didn't ask for the liquidated damages either. Both parties parted ways peacefully. In the next few months, Xiang Nong didn't appear in the public eye.
After Xiang Nong left, there was an empty commentator's seat. The audience was a little curious because usually, the finals would invite more important people, so they were a little excited. They didn't know what kind of people they would see.
As expected, the first two guests were no surprise. With the host's introduction, Jing Long and Past Drifting entered the venue and sat in the commentator's seat. Liu Su waved his hand and then said, "The last commentator, maybe only the older generation of players know him. He was the former captain of the national team who led the Hua Xia national team to win the National Cup. Let us welcome the old captain of the Hua Xia national team — Da Songshan!"
"What?" All the audience was stunned. The scene was silent for a few seconds. Then suddenly, there was a burst of loud cheers from the audience. Although half of the audience didn't know who this person was, the other half's cheers felt like they were going to break the sky.
"Heavenly King! Heavenly King! Heavenly King! " The audience who knew the situation shouted Da Songshan's nickname in unison. In the neat cheers, a middle-aged man who was about 40 years old and looked kind walked out from the passage. In an instant, the audience's cheers became louder.
"Who is it?" Li Huailin was confused again. He didn't know this person at all. He could only ask for help from the audience, which was Feng Yiliu who was standing next to him.
Feng Yiliu looked inexplicably excited. He looked at Li Huailin and said, "Hua Xia is a legend in the gaming world. The Heavenly King, Da Songshan, 13, no, it should be 14 years ago, he led the Hua Xia national team to win the National Cup. That was the first time Hua Xia won the world championship after joining G6. He is really a legend among legends."
"14 years ago?" Li Huailin looked at Da Songshan. No wonder he was so old. 14 years ago, he was only 8 years old. He had no idea what was going on. Speaking of which, he was the captain of Hua Xia's team now. Did that mean that he was his senior?
Facing the roaring audience, Da Songshan didn't back down. Instead, he seemed to be a little happy. He probably hadn't encountered such a situation for a long time. He thought of some things when he was a professional player. With a happy smile on his face, Da Songshan walked to the commentary platform and said a few words as usual.
"Thank you. To be honest, before I came here today, I thought that if no one remembered me, I would hide in the passage and never come out. I have retired for 10 years. Thank you for still remembering me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart." Da Songshan bowed to all the audience as soon as he came up. His demeanor was simply awe-inspiring.
"We will always remember you!" "We will always remember you!"
"Old captain, we will always remember you!" A few veteran players on the spectator stand were so excited that they were about to cry.
Even Da Songshan was on the verge of tears. After all, this was the place where he had spent his youth. Bits and pieces of his memories slowly surfaced. Standing on the commentary platform, Da Songshan's eyes were brimming with tears and he was almost speechless.
"Old captain, can I call you that?" Liu Su saw the situation and immediately came over to lighten the atmosphere.
"Yes, I like this name." Da Songshan nodded.
"Old captain, it seems like the audience misses you very much. Old captain, you have retired for 10 years. I don't think you have engaged in any gaming-related work after retiring. Old captain, have you been paying attention to the gaming world recently? "Liu Su asked.
"Are you testing my commentary skills?" Da Songshan finally laughed and said with a smile, "Don't worry. Although I don't work in the gaming field, I will not change the fact that I like games. I have been playing games for the past few years. Of course, due to my busy work, I have not achieved as much as I did when I was a professional gamer. I have only treated it as a form of entertainment. Of course, I started playing Heart of Glory when it was first released. Perhaps it is because of my bad habits as a professional gamer. I can basically write a walkthrough for skills and moves. Of course, I have always been paying attention to the circle of professional gamers. Don't worry, I won't embarrass you."
"Hahaha …" His tone was humorous, and the audience couldn't help but laugh. Some players, like Li Huailin, who didn't know this old captain well, had a good impression of this humorous and unassuming Legendary captain.
"Old captain, you mentioned that you are paying attention to the circle of professional gamers, right?" Liu Su asked.
"Yes." Da Songshan nodded again.
"Then … I would like to ask, old captain, if you can comment on the current professional gamers. Do you have a good or bad impression of a few of them?" Liu Su asked.
"Oh?" This question immediately aroused the curiosity of the audience. They wanted to know the former world champion's evaluation of the current professional gamers.
"Oh?" Da Songshan smiled and nodded. "Then I'll say a few simple things. First of all, let's talk about living apart from each other."
"Oh." The audience's interest was immediately piqued. They did not expect to hear Worlds Apart. They were naturally curious about Da Songshan's evaluation of Worlds Apart.
"I have been paying attention to Worlds Apart since his debut," Da Songshan said. Da Songshan said, "I'm not talking about him after he became an S-rank player. I've noticed him since he started playing in the low-level leagues. From every angle, he is a perfect professional player. Not only is he extremely skilled and talented, but he also has a strong sense of professionalism. I don't think any company would reject a professional player like him working in their company."
The camera turned to the VIP stands. The person in the camera was Dong Zhongxing of the ZTE Group. Dong Zhongxing smiled at the camera even though he was feeling uneasy.
"The old captain seems to be very optimistic about Team Heaven's Separation," Liu Su said.
"Yes." Da Songshan immediately admitted, "To be honest, his current achievements are within my expectations. It is impossible for a professional gamer like him to not perform well."
"So, old captain, do you think Worlds Apart will win the championship?" Liu Su took the opportunity to ask.
The audience listened attentively. After all, it was the old captain's recommendation. It was related to their betting.
However, Da Songshan did not explain immediately. Instead, he changed the topic, "Let me talk about the other players first. Of course, I know what you want to hear. Since the other champion is Ruolin, he is Brother Awesome."
"Oh." The audience was a little excited. As expected, they were going to talk about Brother Awesome.
"This non-professional gamer, to be honest, really … doesn't look like a professional gamer. It's the complete opposite of Worlds Apart. Not only is he often late for matches, but to be honest, his combat skills are … pretty bad, "Da Songshan said.
"Bad combat skills?" Liu Su was taken aback. This was the first time he had heard someone comment on Li Huailin like this. This channel was new.
"Yes." Da Songshan nodded, "Perhaps most of the audience is confused by his flashy combat process. In fact, if you observe his few long matches, especially the matches against Worlds Apart, you can clearly see that his combat skills are inferior. Of course, he is a solo player and not a professional gamer. There is a huge gap in experience in this area. "
"Oh, I see." Liu Su nodded. To be honest, he did not pay attention to it. That was because Li Huailin's matches would either end in a few seconds or he would not even show up. To be honest, it was impossible to figure out Li Huailin's style. Only a professional like Da Songshan would be able to figure it out.
As Da Songshan said this, the game writer, Drifting Past, nodded subconsciously. In fact, he had also noticed this problem.
"Another brainless person who disses me?" Li Huailin stood in the contestant area and looked at Da Songshan, speechless. Was there always going to be someone who liked to diss him among the guests? After Fragrant Fragrance was done, Da Songshan appeared …
As he was thinking about this, the host, Liu Su, asked at the right time, "Old captain, are you not optimistic about Brother Awesome?"
"Is that what I mean?" Da Songshan suddenly smiled and said, "On the contrary, I am very optimistic about him."
"Huh?" Not only Liu Su, but the audience was also stunned. Based on the context, it was obvious that Da Songshan was criticizing Li Huailin. Li Huailin's fan club could not sit still and almost jumped up to protest. Now that they heard Da Songshan's words, they were all stunned.
"Huh? What do you mean? "Liu Su asked after being stunned for a while.
"You must have never investigated what kind of person I was back then." Da Songshan said with a smile, "You probably don't know this, but back then, the committee called me a super problematic child …"
"Eh?" Everyone was taken aback. They had never heard of such a thing before.
"It was something I did when I was young. Now that I think about it, it's a bit exaggerated." Da Songshan smiled and said, "But no one remembers it. They only remember one thing, and that is my achievements. I was Hua Xia's old captain. I led Hua Xia's national team to win the National Cup. No one remembers all the nonsense I did before."
"I'm here to tell all the professional players the most important thing," Da Songshan said seriously. "This is a professional competition, not a stage to show your professional ethics. As a professional player, the only thing you have to do is to win the competition. Win, win again and again. You have to win. Whether it's for yourself, for the country, or for anything else, you have to win. This is my only advice to all of you."
The audience was silent. It seemed that many people were thinking about this sentence and did not know how to react. Da Songshan took a breath and continued, "Let's go back to Bear-minded Ruolin. I have high hopes for him. As the former captain of Hua Xia, I am very satisfied with the current captain. After I retired, I watched the professional competitions and the National Cup for ten years. Why has our Hua Xia's performance been so bad? It's because we don't have a winning point."
"A winning point?" Liu Su asked curiously.
"The National Cup is a team competition, not an individual performance. You have 31 teammates and tens of thousands of enemies. The most important thing on this stage is to have a clear direction," Da Songshan said. Da Songshan said, "This is what a captain has to do. Become like this."
"Do you mean the captain's command?" The topic was a little serious. Liu Su also asked seriously. It seemed that he was a student who was ready to learn something. The audience did not say anything. They all wanted to hear the former captain's experience.
"Command is not." Da Songshan shook his head and said, "It's confidence. What you have to do is not to let your teammates feel that they can do the best thing by following you, but to let them feel that they can win by following you. To achieve this, you don't need skills, brains, tactics, or interpersonal relationships. What you need is … bearing. "
"Bearing?" Da Songshan's words sounded a little mysterious. Liu Su did not quite understand.
"I know many of you don't understand what I'm talking about because you weren't on the battlefield. I'm sure that the professional players who participated in the friendly match against the European Alliance a few months ago can understand what I'm talking about. Moreover, I'm sure that the captain of the Hua Xia Region will be Ruolin. I don't think any professional players will object because only they know how strong the captain is," Da Songshan said with a smile.
"Nonsense. I'll be the first to object." The Sharpshooter could not help but shout before he finished speaking. However, his voice was too soft, so no one noticed it. However, Apart from Heaven and Windlike Seems to smiled. Just like what Da Songshan said, the captain of the Hua Xia Region this time was Li Huailin. They would not object to it.
"Standing next to such a captain, you'll feel at ease. You won't feel any pressure because all the pressure will be on the captain. That's why the previous captains couldn't lead the team well. They weren't strong enough. This year, I think our chance is here. " Da Songshan took a deep breath and turned to Li Huailin. "Captain Hua Xia, I've bragged about you. You won't disappoint me this time, right?"
Needless to say, all the cameras shifted to the resting area where Li Huailin was. Li Huailin's face appeared on the big screen. The entire place was silent. Everyone was waiting for Li Huailin's reply.
"Heh …" Li Huailin chuckled. Li Huailin could not bring himself to hate such a guy.
Li Huailin grinned confidently and replied, "No problem, leave it to me."
