Sunday, December 18th.

Wu Yue and Manager Lu were in the office and counted people's heads with their fingers.

"Let's go to Los Angeles and hire a tour guide, four bodyguards and drivers, and rent a minibus."

"The five main players of the first team, the second team of the FV club, and the SUG club, plus you, me, the team leader, the coach, and the analyst, are a total of 20 people. Add two translators, three documentary photographers, that's 25 people. ”

"Five people left."

"Bring a team doctor to ensure the health of the players, and you can also take everyone to do some simple physical training in the hotel to maintain their physical condition."

"That's four people left."

Wu Yue counted on his fingers, but he couldn't make up enough for 30 people.

The main reason is that there are too many places given by Mr. Pei, Wu Yue even brought three photographers, and the others, including translators, team leaders, coaches, analysts, team doctors, etc., all the logistics personnel who must be brought have been brought, but there are still four people left, and I really don't know who to bring.

Although Mr. Pei has no special requirements for the identity of the personnel, after all, this is an official business trip, and the people he brings have to be related to the game, right?

Mr. Pei was very generous, and his gesture was like asking everyone to travel to Los Angeles at public expense, but Wu Yue didn't dare to really engage in public-funded tourism, but he was under a lot of pressure.

Millions were given, what if it didn't get good grades!

Manager Lu proposed: "Mr. Wu, our club is full of people, and I really can't think of more candidates." It's better to ask Mr. Zhang to see if there is any suitable candidate on his side. ”

"After all, it was Mr. Pei who funded the fund, and the remaining four places were brought to Tengda's side, which was more obvious on the scene. Moreover, with such a high standard of publicly-funded travel, the employees over there in Tengda should also want to come. ”

Wu Yue nodded suddenly: "Yes, ask Mr. Zhang." ”

"In that case, I'll call Mr. Zhang, and you call Mr. Ding Ganding of the SUG Club."

……

DGE Esports Club.

Zhang Yuan: "There are still four places left?" No one to choose from? ”

"Hmm...... There are four of us here, but it's no problem, I think about it. ”

After listening to Wu Yue's explanation of the situation on the phone, Zhang Yuan fell into deep thought.

When the FV club went out, Mr. Pei personally inquired and gave a high standard of accommodation and accommodation, and it was mandatory to bring enough 30 people!

And that's not even counting the locally hired guides and bodyguards in Los Angeles.

Why bring so many people?

Now not to mention China, even the world's e-sports environment is still relatively informal. Not to mention anything else, in the past two years, domestic professional players often played games at their own expense, and it was often heard of sleeping on the road with cold water and instant noodles.

Especially for this kind of international competition, because of the large cost after going abroad, the expenses are as small as possible, and the fewer the number of people, the better.

But Mr. Pei gave a treatment that far exceeded the specifications, why is this?

After Zhang Yuan thought about it briefly, he immediately thought of two points: first, to show Tengda's financial resources and importance to e-sports to the outside world through the FV club; Second, ensure logistics at all costs and strive for good results as much as possible!

Because the FV club has been bound to Tengda, the better the results of the FV club, the longer Tengda's face, relatively speaking, the more the face of the finger company and Longyu Group.

Whether you get the bonus or not is secondary, the key is the popularity and advertising effect.

Therefore, the entourage this time is definitely not going to travel, and they have to play a role more or less.

Zhang Yuan said: "If you look at the entire Tengda Group, there are really four more suitable candidates, but I don't know if they are willing to go." ”

"Ye Zhizhou, Min Jingchao, Bao Xu, Zhou Pengyuan."

"Ye Zhizhou is the person in charge of Yuyang Games, game designer, once responsible for the operation of the IOI national server, and is very familiar with the data of IOI, of course, only the previous old version."

"Min Jingchao, the designer at GOG, has been responsible for game design and numerical balance since GOG launched."

Bao Xu, a veteran designer of Tengda Games, a hardcore gamer, is proficient in most games, and GOG and IOI are no problem. And the travel experience is very rich, good physical fitness, strong ability to work under pressure. ”

"Zhou Pengyuan, the former commander of the second team of the DGE club, but he is indeed older and his state has declined greatly, and he has decided to retire some time ago and return to the DGE club as the head coach. The game is experienced and proficient in various tactics of GOG. ”

"These four guys definitely know the best about GOG and IOI, and should be able to guide you in tactical development and data analysis."

"The only problem is...... I have to ask Mr. Pei about this. ”

"Except for Zhou Pengyuan, who is now the head coach of DGE, I can arrange, the other three are either Tengda veterans or department heads, who are at the same level as me, and I can't command."

Wu Yue on the other side of the phone was stunned: "Mr. Zhang, there is no need for this!" This is too exciting! ”

"Our club went to Los Angeles to play a game, and the heads of the two core game departments of the Tengda Group were accompanied by the chief designer? This...... Something seems wrong. ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Don't worry about this, whether it is appropriate or not is a problem for Mr. Pei to consider, if Mr. Pei is afraid of delaying his work and will not let him go, then I will consider other candidates." ”

Wu Yue thought about it, so he nodded: "Okay, Mr. Zhang, then I'll wait for the news." ”

Zhang Yuan hung up the phone and immediately called Mr. Pei to explain the situation.

On the other end of the phone, Pei Qian had just gotten up not long ago, and was eating brunch at the Internet café.

Hearing that Zhang Yuan was going to transfer Ye Zhizhou and Min Jing away, Pei Qian's eyes lit up and he readily agreed.

"No problem! Let them go! And this thing must be done, and it cannot be shirked! ”

Pei Qian was worried that he couldn't arrange them.

Now Ye Zhizhou is responsible for the operation of the overseas version of GOG, and Min Jingchao is responsible for the update of the new version of GOG and the domestic operation, these two people can be said to be the current confidants of Mr. Pei.

With a little bit of hard work, GOG's market share will increase a lot!

The better they do their work, the more difficult it will be for Mr. Pei to lose money.

This time, Pei Qian arranged the itinerary for the entire FV club team until the end of next month, that is, the end of the ioi World Finals.

Pei Qian didn't think that the FV club could win the championship at all, after all, the European and American teams started early, trained a lot, and adapted to the version first, and the FV club, a team that had been reorganized for less than a month in the middle of the process, why should it play with the old European and American teams?

Most of them were eliminated in the quarterfinals, and at most in the semifinals.

But being eliminated doesn't affect them to continue traveling in Los Angeles!

The other clubs were eliminated and then booked a plane ticket back to China the next day, which is not humane. The team members usually train hard, and finally get a visa to go abroad, but they can't have a good time for a few days?

So, no matter what the FV club does, Pei Qian will ask them to stay in Los Angeles until the ioi World Finals are over and then come back.

So, Ye Zhizhou and Min Jingchao, the two big henchmen, went to Los Angeles, and for a whole month, didn't GOG's work slow down and stagnate?

Even if these two people want to work online, there is a time difference of more than ten hours between Jingzhou and Los Angeles, one is during the day and the other is at night, and when they wake up, Tengda is off work.

Very good!

So Pei Qian didn't think much about it at all, and readily agreed.

As for Bao Xu and Zhou Pengyuan on the list, Pei Qian felt that they were dispensable, but since Zhang Yuan opened his mouth to ask for someone, let them go, and it would cost more money to get a place.

Zhang Yuan was quite moved.

Mr. Pei really trusts himself, and the person in charge of such an important department will give it when he says it!

Call these four people immediately and ask them to arrange their work handover and prepare for an expedited visa.

A few minutes later, Bao Xu, who was happily playing a game at his workstation, received a call from Zhang Yuan.

His expression changed from cozy to stunned, to shock and bewilderment.

After hanging up the phone, Bao Xu froze at his workstation and began to think about life, and he didn't move for a long time.

……

On the other hand, in the SUG club, Ding Gan also received a call from Manager Lu.

"What? Take the five members of the IOI branch of the SUG club to Los Angeles??? ”

Ding Gan almost thought he had misheard.

After listening to Manager Lu tell the ins and outs of the whole thing, Ding Gan still did not come back from his confused state.

Unexpectedly, my team was eliminated in the domestic qualifiers and did not get a spot in the IOI World Championships, but it turned out that they still had to go to Los Angeles?

This time, the players of the SUG club are sparring partners.

Because this team is also a first-class team in China, its strength is only between the two conscripted teams.

was swept 3:0 in the last game, not all of which was a problem of strength, but mainly because of the collapse of the mentality and the lack of tactical reserves.

Since the qualifiers, the players of the IOI division have been depressed for a long time.

originally had the opportunity to show his face in the World Championship, but the result was one step away and a world of difference, who could withstand this!

But now, things seem to be turning again.

Although I can't go to the World Championship, it's good to let the players go for a break with such a high standard of publicly-funded travel!

Ding Gan thought about it, and he really didn't have any reason to refuse.

The only question is, why did Mr. Pei do this?

Ding Gan pondered.

"Do you mean...... Is this some kind of hint from Mr. Pei? ”

"Mr. Pei has always had a clear distinction between love and hatred, and rewards and punishments. Previously, SUG was removed from the GPL because of friction with Mr. Pei because of the GPL quota, but Mr. Pei did not rush to kill them all, but gave the GDL quota. ”

"It's the same this time, Mr. Pei squeezed out the SUG World Championship quota after reorganizing the FV club, this is not for the SUG club, but Pei is always humane, and spends money to invite our players to Los Angeles, saying that it is a sparring partner, but the food and drink are served, and the five-star hotel is lived, which is better than tourism."

"Pei is always a bright person! The SUG club offended him, but they still ignored the previous suspicions...... On the other hand, Longyu Group, as I said before, is good, once SUG is eliminated, it will be abandoned immediately......"

"Judgment!"

Thinking of this, Ding Gan immediately nodded and said, "Okay, then thank you Mr. Pei for your kindness!" ”

"I have a reluctant request, though."

"Can I come with you to Los Angeles? I just wanted to go out for a few days recently. Don't worry, all the expenses on my side are at your own expense, and you only need to take care of the expenses of the five team members. When I get to Los Angeles, I play by myself and don't bother with my daily training. ”

Manager Lu thought for a while: "Mr. Ding, if you want to come, of course you can." ”

Since Ding Gan has paid for himself, there is nothing to say, he wants to go to Los Angeles, can Manager Lu and Wu Yue stop him?

Thirty people have brought it, and they don't care if they bring one more.

What's more, the players of SUG help with the sparring, and Ding Gan is the owner of the SUG club, so he can't help but give this face.

……

After getting the SUG club, Manager Lu returned to Wu Yue's office.

"Mr. Wu, the SUG club has been arranged here!"

Wu Yue nodded: "Well, the remaining four places are also available." ”

"Mr. Pei attaches great importance to the FV club's trip to Los Angeles this time, and now our team can be said to be the ultimate dream team!"

"Look at the four new additions, they are the designers of GOG, the former head of operations of IOI national server, the senior game designer of Tengda Games, and the former star commander of GOG...... Add to that our own coaches, analysts, and players from three teams, and that's a huge amount of strength! ”

Manager Lu listened to Wu Yue's introduction of the four new members, and his face was full of shock.

Is it okay to even go to GOG's lead designer in person?

It's magical!

This is equivalent to the GOG World Invitational, where the chief designer of the finger company personally analyzes the data of a certain club, and killing chickens with a knife is not enough to describe this kind of behavior!

Now the data analysis team of the FV Club can be said to be the ultimate gorgeous.

What's more, Ye Zhizhou and Min Jingchao are not fighting on their own, behind them are the two game departments of Yuyang Games and Tengda Games, and any problems they encounter can be directly handed over to the designers of the two departments to solve together.

Manager Lu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "If you want to say this, we don't need an account for ioi world server!" ”

"What kind of high-end game RANK are you playing? We brought three teams, fifteen people, and it was enough to practice by ourselves! ”

"The players of the first team can play training matches against the people of the second team and SUG respectively. Then, when the second team and SUG play a training match to test the strength of the lineup, the players of the first team can listen to the analyst review and explain the tactics. ”

"In scattered time, the players can be divided into several groups to practice the alignment and maintain the feel, which is not much more efficient than the high segment RANK?"

Before, Manager Lu and Wu Yue hesitated to go to Los Angeles, mainly because they were worried that they would not be able to get a high-end bureau account over there, and the training effect could not be guaranteed.

You can't go over there and go from zero to single, right?

But now there is no need, as long as there are enough people, the training schedule will naturally be full, and it doesn't matter whether there is a high-end bureau account or not.

Wu Yue immediately became high-spirited: "Everything is ready, you must train hard this time, if you don't get a good result, I'm sorry for Mr. Pei!" ”
