Friday's weather was pretty good, so Excellent Era had a day off to let the players rest. This was a habit they had when participating in the Pro League. Usually, they would rest the day after a match. But now, because they were participating in the Challenger League, the Friday match had become a rest day. This made the players, who were used to the Pro League, feel a bit uncomfortable.
Let alone the players, even the manager of Excellent Era, Cui Li, felt a bit lost when he realized that he didn't have anything to prepare for.
Cui Li, who was a bit bored, decided to go out for a walk.
Cui Li was someone who put all of his heart into work. He didn't have a family yet, so he usually lived in the Club. When he walked out of the Club early in the morning, the first thing he saw was the Happy Internet Cafe diagonally across the Club. His originally bad mood immediately worsened.
This season wasn't good! Cui Li couldn't help but sigh. For a giant like Excellent Era to play in the Challenger League this season, even if they won in the end, it wouldn't be anything worth celebrating. Wasn't that to be expected?
From this, it could be seen that Excellent Era wouldn't have anything to be proud of this season.
Cui Li, who was standing outside the Club, stretched his back and was thinking about where to go. Suddenly, an electric bicycle crookedly slid in front of him and stopped with great difficulty. The person on the bicycle awkwardly scratched his head and then greeted Cui Li: "Manager Cui, good morning!"
Cui Li saw that the young man looked familiar, but what he was more familiar with was the electric bicycle. Cui Li recognized that it was the Esports Home's ride in H City's interview station. He immediately realized who this familiar young man was. It was the new intern at the interview station. He had come to Excellent Era a few times with Cao Guangcheng. Now that a year had passed, the young man should have become a full-time employee. However, his electric bicycle riding skills were still lacking! Cui Li secretly rejoiced that he hadn't started crossing the road. Otherwise, it wasn't impossible for him to be crushed under the wheels of this young man.
"Hehe, it's Little Chang!" Cui Li was in a good mood. He even remembered the other party's surname. He laughed and teased, "Your driving skills really need to be improved compared to your writing skills!"
Chang Xian scratched his head and continued to smile embarrassedly.
"Where are you going so early in the morning?" Cui Li asked.
"I'm here for an interview," Chang Xian answered honestly.
When Cui Li heard this, his mood immediately improved. As the manager of the club, what he had to consider was not only the victory and defeat of the club, but also the operation of the entire club. With Excellent Era out of the picture, the amount of attention they received this year would definitely decrease. The amount of sponsorships and endorsements they received this season could no longer be described as low. It was basically at a standstill. The Shang Family wouldn't care about how glorious your past was. Since you didn't have the exposure you should have this season, then the investment in you was worth considering carefully. Excellent Era's situation wasn't bad. After all, there was still something to look forward to in the future. As a result, some of the sponsors didn't immediately leave in a huff. They all had an agreement with Excellent Era. As for the specifics, they would have to wait until Excellent Era returned to the Pro Alliance.
At this time, Excellent Era was still receiving media attention and more exposure. For a manager like Cui Li, who considered problems from a management perspective, this was something to be happy about. With more attention, the sponsors would have more confidence in Excellent Era!
Cui Li's smile didn't change. He was about to greet Chang Xian, but Chang Xian had already repositioned his car and waved at Cui Li: "Manager Cui, I'll leave you to it. I'll be leaving first!"
The smile on Cui Li's face suddenly froze. The words that were about to come out of his mouth were immediately swallowed back by his tongue. At this moment, his face was a bit flustered.
This stinking brat, so he didn't want to interview Excellent Era? It was a good thing that he didn't say anything. Otherwise, it would have been a bit awkward.
Cui Li obviously knew that Glory was the most popular eSports game, but there were many other games as well. Esports Home was a comprehensive eSports media company. They also had reports on these other games. However, because they focused on Glory, for the sake of convenience, the interview station in City H was set up near the Club closest to City H's only pro team, Excellent Era.
Was Chang Xian going to interview a team from another game? Cui Li thought this, but when he saw Chang Xian's electric bicycle start to wobble, he suddenly had a bad premonition. There weren't any professional teams from other games in the vicinity. Electric bicycles weren't suitable for traveling too far, right? Then if Chang Xian wasn't going to interview Excellent Era, could it be … …
Just as he was thinking, Chang Xian's electric bicycle finally started to move. It directly turned and sped towards Happy Internet Cafe.
He was going to interview Happy.
At this moment, Cui Li's heart was filled with all sorts of indescribable feelings. He stood on the side of the road and stared blankly.
Chang Xian rode the electric bicycle, swaying as he crossed the road, and then rode onto the sidewalk. He wanted to stop at the entrance of the Internet cafe, but this guy's driving skills were so bad that it angered both men and gods. He couldn't even do such a simple thing. When the electric bicycle came to a stop, he and half of the bicycle were already inside …
Cui Li thought he heard some screams coming from the Internet Cafe. The sudden appearance of an electric bicycle might have scared the witnesses.
Then, he saw Chang Xian hastily jump off the bicycle. He scratched his head awkwardly and immediately reversed the bicycle and stopped it. Then, he turned around and rushed into Happy Internet Cafe.
Happy … ….
Even though Cui Li wasn't happy, he had to admit that Happy's victory over Team Everlasting last night had piqued the curiosity of some viewers. It was worth interviewing. But now, he saw the interview station's staff, who had been set up for them, rushing to interview the person they hated. Cui Li couldn't help but feel sullen.
Out of sight, out of mind!
Cui Li thought angrily as he walked in the opposite direction. This time, he couldn't see, but his thoughts couldn't help but wander in that direction. Happy. What kind of report would he get?
Happy Internet Cafe.
Chang Xian rode his bicycle straight in, almost scaring the staff into calling the police. After explaining clearly, he explained his intentions. When the front desk staff heard this, they knew they had to report to the boss first, so they hastily dialed the number.
Now, Chen Guo often stayed in the rented apartment in the residential area. Last night, Happy had won a huge victory against a difficult opponent like Team Everlasting. After the match ended, everyone celebrated for a bit. Early in the morning, Chen Guo received a call from the Internet Cafe. She thought it was something important, but when she heard that it was a reporter who wanted to interview them, and it was the Esports Home, one of the most authoritative print media outlets. Chen Guo was dumbfounded.
"Wait a moment." Chen Guo said to the other side and then turned to let Ye Xiu go.
"Esports Home wants to interview us? That's not bad. It's a good chance to increase our fame. "Ye Xiu nodded his head.
"So you're saying that we should accept?" Chen Guo said.
"There's no reason to not accept!" Ye Xiu said.
"Then ….. what about you?" Chen Guo obviously knew that Ye Xiu never accepted interviews. He never even attended the press conferences that the Alliance required players to attend. If he didn't follow these rules, the Alliance wouldn't punish him by banning him. They would just fine him. But Ye Xiu didn't care. He paid the fine and didn't go to any press conferences. In the end, the two sides came to a tacit understanding. Ye Xiu remembered the Alliance's fine payment account better than his own. He transferred the money every month. The Alliance didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This kind of guy who wouldn't change even after being punished really made them speechless. In the end, the Alliance's hearts softened, but there was no other way. The rules were set. If they let him off, how would they explain it to the players who followed the rules? So from the beginning, there was a dispute. In the end, both sides tacitly agreed to it. One side paid the fine, and the other side wouldn't use a certain someone who didn't change even after being punished.
"Me? The people who come won't know who I am, right? "Ye Xiu said.
"You'll just say that you're Ye Xiu?" Chen Guo was puzzled.
"Yeah!" Ye Xiu nodded.
"Then won't you still accept the interview?" Chen Guo asked.
"It doesn't matter." Ye Xiu smiled. "It won't be too much anyway."
"Why won't it be too much?" Chen Guo was puzzled.
"Because I don't have much time left!" Ye Xiu said.
"…" Chen Guo didn't expect this guy to say this. For a moment, she didn't know how to respond. At first, Ye Xiu avoided the media and refused to be exposed because he was afraid that his family would find him running away from home and catch him. Later on, when he got older, he didn't avoid his family like this anymore, but he still continued this habit. Ye Xiu originally thought that he would use his brother's identity to fight until the end of his professional career, but he didn't expect something like this to happen at the end of his career.
He returned to Ye Xiu's identity. When he returned, he didn't plan on continuing to use the name Ye Qiu. There were too many things that he couldn't be bothered to dwell on after experiencing it once.
Chen Guo respected Ye Xiu's wishes and didn't say anything. She picked up her phone and asked the Internet cafe staff to tell the Esports Home's reporters to come over.
"Uh, shouldn't you ask the others for their opinions? Maybe there are some who don't want to be interviewed?" Ye Xiu said.
"Oh … you're right!" When Chen Guo heard this reminder, she immediately came to a realization. When her eyes met with Ye Xiu's, she knew that they were thinking of the same thing.
Tang Rou. After living at Happy Internet Cafe for so long, Chen Guo didn't try to find out more about her background. But she was sure that she definitely didn't need to work as a prostitute in an Internet cafe to earn a living. Just based on her looks and aura, she could easily earn royalties with a few photos.
Tang Rou's background couldn't be simple. Or maybe she didn't want to accept this kind of exposure? (To be continued.) If you like this work, you're welcome to vote for me at qidian.com. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
