"When I was a fledgling, I entered this circle by chance. You also know that the circle back then was not like it is now, it was not so chaotic, and the competition for fame and fortune was so rare that few people made small moves except for normal competition at that time. ”

"At that time, e-sports had just entered China, and e-sports players were a special profession for many people. The esports industry was in its infancy, and most people entered the industry with a true love of gaming. You look at the present, fame-seekers, conspirators, conspiracy methods, violence, trolls, scandals, endlessly. After seeing the scene back then, you can never believe that this is still the original e-sports circle. ”

"At that time, there were only old games such as Warcraft, Interstellar, and CS in domestic e-sports, and at that time, a few good friends with us discovered the gradual development of the e-sports circle and found the right opportunity."

……

Later, after attracting attention, the Royal Summit Club, the first e-sports club in China to formalize its business at that time, called. And the first feud also began from there???"

……

"After a few months, a lot of pressure, a lot of shame, and a lot of financial repression, finally the club began to crumble, the team could not be sustained, and the first team with our dream was finally disbanded. I also took a short break from esports for a while. ”

……

"The second comeback was on DOTA, and at that time, the game was full of scenery and was another attempt at esports, and it was also during this period that the esports market began to expand wildly. More and more young people are pouring into this game, and more and more companies are looking at the esports industry. Arguably. From that time on, the esports industry began to change from a dream greater than a reality to a dream that bowed to reality......"

……

"A team formed after the return. That is, today's Xu Fengge, Zheng Feng and Huang Tianxiao, Gao Xue gradually started to emerge at the beginning, but his talent was very good, and it was at that time that Gao Xue gradually led the IE team to gradually rise. It's just that they are lucky, they have a good group behind them, and Gao Xue's own relationship is also solid, so they didn't suffer from unwarranted disasters. Relatively. Feng Ge and I suffered a lot worse. At that time, the international competition began to gradually expand, and it was at that time that Lian Xuan'er came to China and became involved in this vortex for some time to come......"

……

"After experiencing this, I was really disheartened, disbanding the team and resources that were already very large at that time, and some people began to quit the professional circle like me, after all, the professional circle has long since changed its taste. And there are people. Because I love it, I still want to struggle. I also faded out of the esports circle and started my own life of drifting. ”

"Traveled for half a year and went to work. I have been decadent, I have been lost, and I have thought about revenge, but in the end, time began to wash away these things. Gradually the dust is sealed to the bottom of my heart. Until almost a year ago. That was when LOL began to become popular, and a young man found my house. ”

……

This incident once again inspired thoughts that had been hidden in the dust of the mind for a long time. And it was after that incident that I contacted Xu Fengge for the first time in three years. Zheng Feng and them, and Gao Xue gradually selected a few people for me, and Gao Tianle was one of them. I started to plan slowly. The most distressing time, and you kid inexplicably broke in...... Originally, I didn't have much hope, who knew that cultivating you would have a certain effect, and the personality was indeed suitable for this circle, so I changed my plan again. ”

……

A meal, Lin Mo was enthusiastic several times in winter. It's not because of the temperature, it's because of Li Youran's experience.

Lin Mo never thought that the experience that existed in many bloody dramas and novels also happened to the people around him one day.

Li Youran's body is not broad, and he has experienced too much wind and rain.

And this life experience, this ups and downs of the e-sports career, may be the reason why Li Youran can have such a state of mind.

"I see!"

Lin Mo raised his glass, clinked glasses with Li Youran Lian Xuan'er, and drank all the remaining wine in the cup.

The pungency of the liquor made Lin Mo's throat uncomfortable. However, compared to the complexity of the heart, the pungency of this point can be regarded as a drop in the bucket.

A bottle of liquor, not much. The three of them drank it, and they didn't get drunk after drinking.

Although they are not good drinkers, under the urging of alcohol, Li Youran made this narrative more thorough.

Perhaps, there is some truth in spitting the truth after drinking. Maybe it's also a good choice to get drunk and relieve a thousand sorrows.

Li Youran is like standing from the perspective of a bystander, narrating the grievances and grievances of the past, with laughter, glory, sadness, and grievances. The mixed experiences of life are condensed in short words.

He was rarely emotional, but as he drank his wine, he spoke to the two closest people. Li Youran had several mood swings.

After the last glass of wine, Li Youran's face was already as usual.

Full of wine and food, everything gradually became clear in Lin Mo's mind, but it was just a little chaotic, and it took time to reminisce and sort it out.

The atmosphere in the room was not too good.

Even if Lin Mo was so happy in the past, he couldn't seem to find more thoughts to joke at this moment.

Just before Lin Mo went out and went home.

Lin Mo asked, "How can you repay the hatred of the peak of the imperial clan?" ”

Li Youran didn't seem to hear it, but seemed to hear it again. Frowning, he looked at Lin Mo for a while, and then lowered his eyelids, like a drunken person.

"I'm one of them, too!"

Lin Mo asked unwillingly.

Li Youran seemed to be touched by Lin Mo's words, and Lian Xuan'er pulled Li Youran's sleeve. waved his hand at Lin Mo again.

Lin Mo didn't know what this meant. Let him go? Or will we talk about it later?

The liquor may have had some effect, but Lin Mo still tried to force himself to stand at the door, facing the cold wind outside the door, tilting his head, waiting for an answer.

"Alas!"

For a long time, there was only one sigh left.

Lin Mo knew that Li Youran, who had always abandoned him outside the door of revenge, this time. Really included him in the plan.

……

Lin Mo was lying on the bed, still recalling Li Youran's words.

Too many past events were piled up in Lin Mo's heart. So much so that even if Lin Mo's head was a little dizzy, it was difficult to sleep.

It was quiet in the room. Su Xiaoliang and Qi Yanran were not there. Only himself.

He never thought about it. One person will be so persistent. Li Youran is worthy of being his master.

When Li Youran first stepped into the professional circle, there was no Xu Fengge or Lian Xuan'er at that time. At that time, there were only a few hot-blooded teenagers who loved e-sports.

Good technology, willing to work hard, able to endure hardships. Soon, Li Youran's team rose to the top.

Under the influence of the general trend, Li Youran and several people also saw hope and wanted to pursue the ideal of e-sports to a higher degree, and several teenagers formed the first team. Afterward. Slowly growing, step by step more solid to the top.

And in that era, commercial e-sports began to sprout.

Li Youran and a few of his partners are too sharp, or their natural abilities are too good, and they are favored by the peak of the Royal Family, but how can a few hot-blooded teenagers with dreams join the infamous Royal Club? Rejection became a very straightforward choice.

But in the following days, Li Youran, who had no financial strength, and his companions. became a victim of the shameless development of the royal family's peak - sacrificed under those despicable means.

Li Youran was just a genius e-sports teenager at that time, not a genius leader, and he didn't have much business talent. In that first round of his e-sports career, Li Youran has always followed his boss.

It was only later that this person was abolished by the peak of the royal family. Abolish the most important right hand of esports players.

And the economic pressure. Let the whole club collapse completely.

That disaster may be just one of the thousands of waves in the huge e-sports circle, and it has not caused much impact in the e-sports circle. But for the outside world, it is a small whirlpool. For Li Youran, it was the first time he saw the sinister human heart. For the first time, I felt like my dreams were shattered.

He wanted revenge, but his boss eventually stopped him.

After the team was disbanded. Li Youran and many of his friends at the time left the e-sports circle.

It's just that the feeling of hatred is always impossible for a hot-blooded teenager.

Finally, in the era of DOTA's popularity, Li Youran finally made a comeback again.

And this comeback, what Li Youran didn't expect was that a bigger challenge was waiting for him.

The development of the e-sports circle has slowly matured, and major teams have sprung up. Li Youran also took advantage of the situation. At that time, he became the boss, and his subordinates became Xu Fengge, Zheng Feng, Huang Tianxiao and others.

And even Xuan'er, Gao Xuejian and others also met at that time.

Gao Xue gradually became talented and intelligent, and soon became one of Li Youran's fierce rivals. It's just that there is more sympathy between the two, and more of the excitement of enjoying the old enemy.

At that time, in the Chinese e-sports circle, there were two rapidly developing teams, one was the IE team supported by a strong consortium, with stable internal relations and Gao Xuegradually as the main player. There is also a dazzling progressive team, which is the civilian team led by Li Youran.

It was only later that Li Youran's hatred of the peak of the royal family and Li Youran's eventual development and growth attracted the attention of the peak of the royal family.

It's like the last one.

Violent injuries, economic repression, league rejection. These are not things that Li Youran's team, which has just gained a foothold, can stop.

And Huang Guangji is even more intensified this time, because Li Youran is young and vigorous, so that the giant agent even used a beauty trick.

That's right, it's a beauty trick.

The beauty is not Lian Xuan'er, there are other people. Lian Xuan'er was just the person who pursued Li Youran back then.

The team is struggling, the emotional life is deceitful, and the esports world is gloomy.

The reality of powerlessness, the dark means, made Li Youran even feel that he was cowardly and pitiful.

All of this finally made Li Youran feel disheartened. The circle has become even more sour. has become terrible with the same corruption in all economic sectors.

Utter discouragement. Eventually, it went silent.

The retreat after the sharpness was revealed became Li Youran's choice again. (To be continued......)
