Xia Zhongtian was the sponsor of Excellent Era and played Glory himself. His character wasn't a secret to the players of Excellent Era. As the former captain of Excellent Era, Ye Xiu knew all about it.
Ye Xiu took Xia Zhongtian's assistant's computer, grabbed a random card, and logged into the game. Then, he searched for Xia Zhongtian's character in the Arena and found his room. Taking advantage of the fact that his opponent had left, Ye Xiu had his character stand in the Arena.
Which character was Ye Xiu using? Chen Guo didn't care at all, because it wouldn't affect the outcome. No matter what class he was using, for Ye Xiu, wasn't it just bullying noobs? In this instant, Chen Guo began to sympathize with the person in the room. Compared to her own nagging, this was a much crueler blow, no? Chen Guo guessed that Ye Xiu wouldn't go easy on him.
Sure enough, before Chen Guo could finish her thoughts, the match was already over. Chen Guo looked at the time. 30 seconds? Still not enough?
In the blink of an eye, the second round had already begun. Chen Guo couldn't bear to watch the process. It was like watching an adult beat a child. Anyone with a conscience wouldn't appreciate the process. They would only think it was cruel and inhumane.
In the blink of an eye, the second round was over, and then the third round...
Chen Guo felt like she could hear the breathing in the room becoming more and more violent.
Xia Zhongtian had been a Glory fan for so many years. Even if he wasn't talented, his skill wasn't that bad. In the game, he had never lost so pathetically. As a sponsor, he might have even talked to the pro players of Excellent Era. However, as a sponsor, if the pro players of Excellent Era were smart enough, they wouldn't have been so merciless.
But right now... Ye Xiu really had to be merciless!
While Chen Guo was thinking, Xia Zhongtian had already lost the sixth round.
Chen Guo kept nagging him to distract him so that he would lose every three minutes. Now that Ye Xiu was going up personally, Xia Zhongtian had already lost six rounds in three minutes. From this, it could be seen that less empty talk and more action was indeed the truth.
In the blink of an eye, five minutes had passed, and Xia Zhongtian had already lost ten rounds.
He had lost ten rounds in five minutes.
As a Glory player herself, Chen Guo could imagine what Xia Zhongtian was feeling right now. However, this brat was really stubborn. Even after being beaten to such a state, it was obvious that there was a huge disparity between their levels, but he still persevered. He stayed in the room and refused to leave, and still wanted to continue the fight.
Thus, another five minutes passed …
The internal line of the boss on the assistant's desk rang loudly. Ye Xiu slapped it down casually. "What's up?"
"Why isn't lunch here yet?" Xia Zhongtian didn't seem to realize that the voice on the line was not his assistant's.
"Can you still eat after losing so much?" Ye Xiu asked.
There was silence inside. Chen Guo heard the sound of a chair moving. She looked into the room and saw that Xia Zhongtian had finally stood up. He walked out from behind his large desk and monitor.
"Were you the one who called just now?" Xia Zhongtian walked out of the room and saw Ye Xiu sitting in his assistant's seat, running Glory on his computer. Even though he didn't see Ye Xiu's character name, he could guess. He wasn't an idiot.
Ye Xiu only smiled, but didn't say anything.
"Am I that bad?" Xia Zhongtian's face was full of disbelief.
"It's not that bad," Ye Xiu said.
Chen Guo and Xia Zhongtian were both speechless. What this person was implying was that he was too good. This was too immodest. However, he was so immodest that it left them speechless. This was Ye Xiu, the top God of Glory. If he said that he wasn't good enough, that he wasn't good enough, that would be slapping all Glory players in the face. If you weren't good enough, then what were we?
"Director Xia, do you want to continue?" Ye Xiu asked.
"No need," Xia Zhongtian said. He wasn't a masochist.
"Then what about our conversation?" Ye Xiu asked.
"No need either …" Xia Zhongtian actually looked at Chen Guo with a bit of fear. It seemed that Chen Guo's small talk had hurt him quite a bit.
"In any case, your lunch isn't here yet. Why don't we all sit down and talk?" Ye Xiu said.
"Is there a need? I think you know very well that I can't sponsor Happy. I'm very surprised that you actually came to me, "Xia Zhongtian said.
"If it's Xia Zhongtian, then of course it's impossible. However, if it's Dry Tea Green's PR Director, then I think this is a pretty good opportunity," Ye Xiu said.
Xia Zhongtian stared blankly for a moment, but then he understood what Ye Xiu meant.
Xia Zhongtian not sponsoring Happy was something he couldn't accept emotionally. However, from a business point of view, the attention Happy was receiving was an excellent choice for sponsorship, especially for Dry Tea Green.
This was because the other sponsors of Excellent Era were purely business partners. If they sponsored Excellent Era, they would naturally want Excellent Era to do their best to showcase their products. However, Dry Tea Green was different. Because it was more of Xia Zhongtian's personal wishes, the amount of sponsorship wasn't very high. They also didn't ask for much in return for Excellent Era. Even the local fans of Excellent Era didn't know that their local brand, Dry Tea Green, was actually one of the sponsors of their beloved team.
Dry Tea Green's sponsorship, to put it bluntly, was equivalent to a rich young master spending money happily. He was already satisfied with the money spent. He didn't have any additional expectations. This sponsorship didn't have much of an impact. As a result, if they suddenly changed their sponsorship to Happy, who had toppled Excellent Era, Dry Tea Green could completely digest the impact. It wasn't like the original sponsors of Excellent Era. If they wanted to change their sponsorship to Happy, they would have to carefully consider it.
Xia Zhongtian was the head of the external publicity department, so he had professional judgment. However, when it came to Glory and Excellent Era, he always let his emotions get the better of him. Now that Ye Xiu said this, from a professional point of view, Happy was indeed a very good sponsorship. If they did a professional feasibility report, the board of directors might even approve it.
In an instant, Xia Zhongtian began to consider the feasibility of this matter from a professional point of view. But when it came to practical operations, he immediately thought of Excellent Era's current predicament of disbanding. And all of this was because of this team in front of him. This man had personally made it happen. Xia Zhongtian's rationality was instantly burned away.
"I refuse." He said without a trace of emotion. He just wanted to make Happy upset. Even though he wouldn't be able to influence it too much, at the very least, you won't be able to get my sponsorship. This is the only price I can make you pay. That was what Xia Zhongtian thought.
"So it's like that. That's too bad. You missed a good opportunity to advertise." Ye Xiu said.
"Don't worry. Our Dry Tea Green has enough advertising methods and channels." Xia Zhongtian replied proudly.
"Oh, then how are you going to deal with the sponsorship from Excellent Era?" Ye Xiu asked.
"You actually have the nerve to ask that?" The coldness on Xia Zhongtian's face disappeared and was replaced with anger. In his heart, no matter how Excellent Era ended up in such dire straits, Ye Xiu and Happy had dealt a fatal blow to Excellent Era. It was this blow that made him unable to forgive Ye Xiu and Happy. Even though he understood a lot of the whole story from the reports and was filled with disdain towards Tao Xuan, this didn't stop him from brooding over Ye Xiu and Happy's fatal blow.
"That's how competitions are. Sacrifice and gain. What's there to be embarrassed about?" Ye Xiu said.
Xia Zhongtian was stumped. In reality, that wasn't what he wanted to express. He wasn't happy with Ye Xiu and Happy because they dealt a fatal blow to Excellent Era. As for Ye Xiu, who used to be a member of Excellent Era, he didn't feel anything. In other words, to him, in this match, Ye Xiu was no different from a normal player. They won, Excellent Era was unlucky, so he hated them. It was that simple.
Ye Xiu's victory was only related to the competition and nothing else.
Xia Zhongtian's hatred was only related to the competition and nothing else.
"Excellent Era needs help right now. Perhaps you can find an opportunity," Ye Xiu said.
"Me?" Xia Zhongtian was troubled when this topic was brought up. "I hope so too, but unfortunately, I don't have the ability."
"You will. You just need the right time," Ye Xiu said.
"What do you mean?" Xia Zhongtian was stunned.
"Excellent Era is being sold in parts." Ye Xiu said a piece of bad news for any Excellent Era fan. "I hope that the most important part of it won't be sold."
"Let's go!" Ye Xiu called out to Chen Guo.
"Oh..." Chen Guo replied with a bit of regret. There was a moment when she saw that Xia Zhongtian was seriously considering the investment and Happy was seriously considering it. She felt a glimmer of hope, but unfortunately, Xia Zhongtian still rejected it. This guy was indeed a big fan of Excellent Era. He couldn't get over the fact that Happy had defeated Excellent Era. Chen Guo couldn't explain this. Because Xia Zhongtian was involved in the competition itself. Because of the result, he made this decision. If she wanted to change him, she would have to change the result of that match. Unfortunately, that was impossible.
"What a bad start..." After leaving Qian Tea Green, the sun was high in the sky. Chen Guo, who had been talking non-stop for half an hour, was about to smoke. She bought two bottles of drinks from the roadside and threw one to Ye Xiu. Then, she gulped down half of it. Then, she looked at the packaging. Qian Tea Green.
Ye Xiu wasn't that petty. He unscrewed the lid and drank two mouthfuls. "Don't worry, we have no reason to lack sponsorship. It's just that you picked an impossible task right from the start. You're just looking for trouble!"
"Little Chang, that brat. I'm going to teach him a lesson!" Chen Guo's hatred shifted. She immediately took out her phone to scold Chang Xian. Speaking of which, even though they were rejected by Xia Zhongtian with such determination and disdain, in the end, she couldn't hate him.
In the end, it was all because of love. Just like Chen Guo, Ye Xiu, and everyone else who loved Glory, pure and full of love.
