Chapter 29: Sincere Invitation
Playing games and playing professional leagues are two concepts. Many people who play games well are not suitable for e-sports. A game anchor with first-class technology and a passer-by who has won a lot of national service standards may not necessarily meet the requirements of e-sports players. This talent test alone will be enough. Live 99.9% of people.
The esports arena is inherently cruel.
Sometimes, even a 0.05 second reaction gap can lead to teamfights breaking down.
Major clubs have very strict requirements for e-sports players. These tests are also the links that all those who want to become e-sports players must pass, just like the stepping stone of the e-sports industry.
When Ye Shaoyang took the test in the GD team in his previous life, he also scored full marks.
He remembers what GD's coach said to him at the time: "Reaction speed, dynamic vision, coordination, and stability are the basic conditions for becoming an e-sports player, just like the basic hardware configuration of a computer. If it is good enough, it needs to be matched with better software - that is field awareness."
Yes, hardware alone is not enough.
Many players with very good scores in the talent test did not become gods later, because their understanding of the game, judgment of the situation, and analysis of the arena did not reach the same excellent level.
No matter how good the hardware is, a computer with a bunch of junk software cannot run smoothly.
Hardware and software have always complemented each other. Under the condition that the innate conditions are good enough, it is also necessary to deepen the understanding of the game, the overall situation, judgment, and execution - these are all cultivated.
Therefore, Ye Shaoyang was not excited when he got a full test score. There are many players whose reaction speed and hand speed can meet the conditions, but during the competition, should this wave of groups be launched? How should the troops be brought? It all depends on the player's on-the-spot decision-making ability. As an outsider, he still needs to understand the game more deeply.
Ye Shaoyang got up, took the report card from Chi Shuo, looked at it, and said politely, "Thank you coach."
Coach Xu stared at Chi Shuo in shock, and asked with his lips: Did he call you coach?
Chi Shuo coughed lightly, ignoring Coach Xu's wide eyes, looking at Ye Shaoyang and said, "Your test scores are very good. In the talent test, players with a rating of 5 S are extremely rare, and there are no more than 10 in Huaguo District."
"Really?" Ye Shaoyang asked earnestly, "What's your requirement to be able to play professionally?"
Coach Xu regained his senses, and actively interjected: "If you have reached the A-level evaluation in all five tests, you can play a career. Dynamic vision, even if you pass 11 levels, you have completed the most difficult 13 levels. The final hanging experiment, generally Ask for a 3mm aperture, and I went straight to 2.5mm for you."
Ye Shaoyang said clearly: "In this way, my test results are not bad."
Coach Xu's eyes lit up, and he asked: "Have you signed the team? Otherwise, you come to our youth training base for a trial training period, and I will take you personally?"
Ye Shaoyang politely rejected him: "I don't think about going to the youth training camp for the time being."
Coach Xu scratched his hair like a chicken coop and turned to look at Chi Shuo. He found that Chi Shuo's eyes were always on this young man, his eyes were full of admiration, and his eyes were much gentler than usual.
Coach Xu's heart was full of doubts. He leaned into Chi Shuo's ear and asked in a low voice, "This is the person you like? Do you want to sign him into Tianhuan?"
Chi Shuo didn't answer the coach's question and said, "It's almost time for dinner, why don't we have a meal together."
Ye Shaoyang thought about it and said, "Thank you two coaches for being busy with my affairs for so long. I should invite this meal." He was not familiar with Xingcheng, so he simply went out to find Qin Rui, who was obediently waiting for him in his seat. He asked softly, "Xiao Rui, is there a better restaurant nearby?"
Qin Rui took out his mobile phone to search for a moment, located a restaurant, and said, "Brother, this is a chain store, and the taste should be good. I have been to their head office before, and the dishes are very delicate and the prices are quite affordable."
Ye Shaoyang glanced at it and said, "Then go to this place."
While Ye Shaoyang went out to chat with Xiao Rui, Coach Xu quickly pulled Chi Shuo aside and asked in a low voice, "What's the situation? This person is already 21 years old. It is reasonable to say that 21 years old is too late to play e-sports, but he tested The grades are very good, where did you find him? You want to sign him to Tianhuan, do Coach Lin and the others know about this? You sent someone to me for testing in private, what are you thinking?"
Chi Shuo frowned slightly with the same question, "Which one should I answer first?"
Coach Xu coughed: "The most important one. What are you thinking?"
Chi Shuo was silent for a moment and whispered, "I just want to change Tianhuan's current predicament." He turned his head and looked out the door, just in time to see the silhouette of Ye Shaoyang chatting with his brother.
Chi Shuo retracted his gaze, and his voice was firm: "This person is the best partner in my mind."
Coach Xu widened his eyes and looked at Chi Shuo in disbelief: "Have you ever played against him?"
Chi Shuo: "No, it's just a couple of games in double row."
Coach Xu: "Then how can you be sure that he is your best partner? Don't tell me it's based on feeling!"
Just by feeling.
Some of the feelings are indescribable, just a few double-row games, but the strange tacit understanding and consonance is something Chi Shuo has rarely experienced before.
The two have the same understanding of the game.
You can understand what the other person thinks without opening your mouth.
More importantly, Xiaobai is like a sharp knife piercing the professional league from the outside world.
He is not afraid of anything.
He is willing to try, to break through, to innovate.
No matter how powerful Jingzhe's poison team is, or how difficult Zhou Jiawen's goddess of flames is, Xiaobai will say bluntly: Find a way to kill them, and no matter how strong the lineup is, there is hope to break it.
This is completely consistent with Chi Shuo's philosophy.
Don't stop those strong lineups, but seek breakthroughs and innovations, and find targeted play styles.
- The stronger is stronger.
Esports, isn't that what it's supposed to be like?
At first, he was worried that Xiaobai was just playing the game well. If he could not pass the e-sports player's talent test, he would still not be able to become a professional player.
But today, Chi Shuo was completely relieved by the 5 S test results.
He will definitely do his best to win this treasure that has not yet had time to emit a dazzling light.
***
Ye Shaoyang walked into the test room and met Shang Chi Shuo's eyes. The other party looked at him with gentle eyes. Ye Shaoyang smiled slightly at Chi Shuo and said, "Coach, my brother has already booked a place to eat, and it's only from here. 500 meters, let's just walk over. I'll treat you."
Chi Shuo nodded: "Okay, then I'm welcome." He looked at Coach Xu: "Let's go together?"
Coach Xu's spirit of gossip was already on fire, and he immediately followed: "Someone invited me to dinner, of course I'm going to eat. I'm tired of eating in the cafeteria of the base, haha."
A group of four walked out of the gate of the youth training base.
The youth trainees who were eating in the cafeteria looked puzzled and discussed in private: "Lao Xu is gone?"
"Who are these people who came to him today?"
"Wearing a hat and mask, fully armed, like a star, it's not easy at first glance."
The gossip souls of the youth trainees are also burning.
Ye Shaoyang followed Qin Rui's mobile phone navigation across the overpass at the intersection and came to a restaurant with a good environment.
Qin Rui just called to reserve a private room, and the four of them came to the VIP room on the second floor. Ye Shaoyang didn't know how to order, so he simply handed the menu to his brother: "Xiao Rui, come and order."
Qin Rui asked politely, "Two coaches, do you have any taboos?"
Chi Shuo said, "I don't eat sweets."
Coach Xu laughed and said, "I don't have any taboos, whatever."
Qin Rui began to bow his head to order food. Coach Xu looked at Chi Shuo and then at Ye Shaoyang, and couldn't help but complain: "How long do you two have to wear masks, and do you have to eat through masks when you eat?"
When Chi Shuo heard this, he took off his hat and mask.
Ye Shaoyang also picked it up.
The two looked at each other, and Ye Shaoyang found that the "coach" was more handsome than he thought.
At first, only his eyes and eyebrows could be seen, and the dark eyes were impressive.
Looking at the whole face now, the man's nose and lips are just right, as if they were carefully carved. It's just that he looks a little too cold and not very approachable.
Coach Xu looked at Ye Shaoyang and asked curiously, "What's your name? Why haven't you taken the test at the age of 21? If you had come to the youth training base at the age of seventeen or eighteen, you would have become a **** by now. !"
Ye Shaoyang smiled and said, "You can call me Xiaobai. I haven't done a talent test before, because I've never been in contact with online games. I recently downloaded "God War" and played it for a while. I think it's very interesting."
Coach Xu touched his chin thoughtfully: "Oh, that's it." Never touched it before? It's a pity, if I had discovered this talent earlier, maybe the current Xiaobai would already be a world-class player.
Qin Rui ordered the dishes and handed the Pad to Ye Shaoyang to take a look: "Brother, can you see these?"
Ye Shaoyang nodded: "Well, let them serve the food as soon as possible, everyone is hungry too."
While waiting for the food to be served, Chi Shuo looked into Ye Shaoyang's eyes and said seriously, "Xiao Bai, I sincerely invite you to join our Tianhuan team."
Tianhuan? Ye Shaoyang knew that this team was considered a wealthy club in China. Among the 8 teams in this year's playoffs, there is Tianhuan. The fourth place in the regular season group barely qualified, and is currently in the loser bracket.
Of course, one season's results alone cannot evaluate the strength of a team.
Ye Shaoyang smiled and said, "Thank you, coach, but I told you before that I might not necessarily join your team. I'll have to think about it when I go back."
Coach Xu looked at him in surprise.
I go! Chi Shuo's invitation was rejected? !
This is definitely breaking news in the e-sports circle!
Tianhuan, a Chinese giants club, established more than 10 years old strong team, the dream place of countless newcomers. The average newcomer received the invitation from the Tianhuan Club, and it was too late to be happy. What is the situation of this little white?
Coach Xu asked curiously, "Xiao Bai, do you dislike Team Tianhuan?"
Ye Shaoyang said calmly: "No, I just don't know enough about Tianhuan. Since I plan to become a professional player, no matter which club I sign for, I have to play for the club, and I can't make hasty decisions. What do you think, coach?"
He looked at Chi Shuo, who was silent for a moment, then nodded calmly: "Yes, I also guessed that you won't agree immediately. It doesn't matter, you can think about it slowly, the information of the Tianhuan team is available online, you can go back and be good. Let me know. Our team's performance this year is not very good, but the foundation is not bad."
Coach Xu coughed and said, "Tianhuan, he is the champion of the first, third, and sixth seasons of the Shenzhan Professional League, and he once won the second place in the S6 World Series." He glanced at Chi Shuo , said with a smile: "The current captain, Chi Shuo, is one of the best students I have ever brought, a rare talent player."
Ye Shaoyang was not frightened by him, but said calmly: "No matter how brilliant the past achievements are, it doesn't mean the current strength, right?"
Coach Xu didn't come up in one breath. He was about to refute, but Chi Shuo said calmly, "Yes. Let's not mention the glory of the past. Signing a team depends on its future. Your idea is not wrong."
Chi Shuo's eyes flashed a bit of heaviness. He lowered his voice and said, "Tianhuan's shooter and support have submitted an application for retirement and will leave after this season. The starting shooter next season has no competition experience and is an 18-year-old rookie. But the talent is very high, and the test score is 1 A and 4 S. The new support has not been determined."
"Next season, Tianhuan's personnel will change a lot, and the results are unknown. I can't determine what trophies will be won next season, but we have been working hard to return to the championship seat."
"I can only guarantee that if you are willing to join Tianhuan, I will get the best treatment for you."
Ye Shaoyang looked at each other in surprise.
Usually, when coaches sign people, they will say a lot of "how good our team is" to fool the newcomers into signing them, and even exaggerate, boasting that "we will definitely win the championship next season".
The rookies who are not familiar with the world are easily fooled by the team managers. Just like when you go to a company for an interview, the benefits promised by HR are all fake, big and empty lies.
Like the coach in front of him, it is very rare to directly open up the team's scars and tell the other party the actual situation - and because of this, Ye Shaoyang felt his full sincerity.
He really wanted to invite himself in.
Therefore, he frankly stated the current predicament of the Tianhuan team, so that Ye Shaoyang could objectively analyze and consider before making a decision without regretting it.
After all, which team he signs for will affect his next career, he must be careful.
Ye Shaoyang's heart was actually moved.
I have seen too many intrigues, and this is the first time I have met such an honest and frank person.
Looking at Shang Chi Shuo's gentle gaze, Ye Shaoyang said seriously: "Thank you for your recognition of me, but I also have two conditions, first, I only play mid-laner; second, I will start next season and not sit on the bench. If you can meet my two conditions, I will seriously consider whether to join Tianhuan."
Coach Xu: "..."
There are many newcomers who speak madly.
This is the craziest one!
Coach Xu's eyes were about to fall next to him, but Chi Shuo didn't seem to be surprised by Xiaobai's condition. He smiled and said in a gentle voice, "Okay. After I go back, I'll discuss it with them and give you an answer. "
The conversation stopped here, just as the waiter knocked on the door of the private room with the dish.
Ye Shaoyang changed the subject and said, "Let's eat first."
- He only plays the mid laner and wants to start in the main team. He is 21 years old, and he can no longer try out for half a year and sit on the bench for a year like an ordinary rookie, and waste his time.
This request does sound too arrogant, after all, he is still a newcomer.
But for Ye Shaoyang, it is the bottom line that must be adhered to.
The team chooses him, and he will also choose the right team.
He hopes to find a team willing to accept his demands.
Find a Bole who really understands him.
