After sending Luo Xiaosu home safely, Ling Feng rushed to the Liangyuan community non-stop.

At this time, the lights are on, and the streets are full of people and traffic.

Gu Yong and Li Yi sat on the steps at the entrance of the community, waiting for a long time, stuffing a cigarette in their mouths to feel the beauty brought by nicotine, and smoking numbly. After seeing Ling Feng come back, the two of them snuffed out the cigarettes in their hands at the same time.

"Tell me, how did you discuss it with your parents?"

Gu Yong lowered his head and was silent, pressing the cigarette to the ground and rubbing it repeatedly, venting the dissatisfaction in his heart.

Ling Feng turned his head to look at Li Yi, wanting to get a little bit of the situation out of his mouth. Li Yi shook his head and spread his hands to explain.

"What do you think I'm doing? I don't know anything, and he called me over as soon as I got off work. ”

"I don't want to drag it out any longer, I'm going to leave tomorrow. Gu Yong's eyes showed incomparably firmness.

Ling Feng touched his chin, thought for a long time, and said slowly: "This is also a way, but I still think that it is better for everyone to talk about it (qíng). ”

"Boss, you don't know my mother's attitude, it's impossible to convince her (qíng), I think it's better to forget it. Thinking of his mother's attitude, Gu Yong's eyes were full of despair.

"It's man-made, don't be discouraged first, I'll think of a way. Ling Feng patted Gu Yong on the shoulder and comforted.

"Ling Feng, this thing doesn't sound reliable! You (shēn) are the boss, not only do you not stop him, but you also encourage him, you are not helping him, you are harming him! Do you understand?" Li Yi's face was full of disdain, and he said with disgust: "Playing professionally, isn't that playing a game? Isn't it a nice way to say it as an Internet addicted teenager? You are deceiving yourself, do you understand!"

"Playing a profession and playing games are two different concepts!Do you understand?" Seeing that Li Yi didn't want to hear it, Ling Feng sighed helplessly, "Forget it, I can't understand it when I tell you." ”

Turning his head to Gu Yong, he said, "I support you to try for a summer vacation, if you don't have this material, you can still retreat." ”

"I think so, too! I think if I miss this opportunity, I'll regret it. ”

Li Yi rolled his eyes and looked at the sky helplessly, "Yes, I said it for a long time and it turned out to be like I didn't say anything...... I don't bother to say anything more about you, how about the two of you (ài), how about it, it doesn't have much to do with me anyway. ”

"Let's go, I'll go up and talk to your parents. Ling Feng put his arm around Gu Yong's shoulders and glanced back at Li Yi, "What about you, do you want to go?"

"I'm not going, I'm going to you, I don't want to go over and scold. ”

"Okay, since you don't want to go, then I won't force it. You wait for me here, I have something to discuss with you, and when I finish Gu Yong's business, I will come back to you. ”

"Look at my heart (qíng). ”

After Ling Feng and Gu Yong walked away, Li Yi couldn't help but make a prayer, hoping that they could get their wish.

......

Gu Yong's family and Ling Feng's family were very close to each other, and there was only one road in between. As soon as he entered Gu Yong's house, Ling Feng felt that the atmosphere was very wrong, and the depressed person was about to lose his breath.

"You still know to come back, I thought you would never go back to this home again. Gu's mother's resentful voice floated out directly from the living room.

"Auntie, it's me, I'm Ling Feng. ”

After Gu's father and mother heard Ling Feng's voice, they hurriedly collected the waste paper on the coffee table into the trash.

"Xiaofeng, is that you, did Xiaoyong come back with you?"

"Yes. ”

Accompanied by Ling Feng, Gu Yong dared to face his mother again. Also because of Ling Feng's existence, the atmosphere at home is much better, and Gu's mother is not good at losing her temper directly, and there are more tables (qíng) on her face.

"Xiaofeng, did you come here today to tell your aunt something?" Gu's mother didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the point.

Ling Feng was unequivocal and said bluntly: "Auntie, I won't see you outside, so I just said it directly, I hope you agree to Gu Yong to go to the trial and complete his dream." ”

Gu's mother's anger was furious, and her voice became sharp.

"Dreams? Playing games is also worthy of being called a dream? Ling Feng, Auntie has also watched you grow up, and you are now a student at a prestigious university, so your ideological consciousness should not be so low."

This is obviously a fire pit, you can't watch Xiao Yong jump into it, you should help your aunt persuade him well, let him change his mind and go to school honestly, instead of playing some dog (pì) profession. ”

After Ling Feng heard this, he was not angry, took out the mobile phone that had been prepared a long time ago, and put it in front of the two.

"Uncles and aunts, look, as early as 03, my country listed e-sports as the 99th official sports competition. Last year, e-sports was reclassified as the No. 78 official sports competition.

So it's not a plaything at all, it's a competition recognized by the state, but it's not yet accepted and well-known by the public. To put it simply, Gu Yong is going to be an athlete, a proper athlete, not just playing games.

Auntie, I know you don't know what esports is at all, and you don't really want to know what it is. You just know that it brings myopia to children, it makes children addicted, so you hate it, you hate it, you hate it, and you impose on it the failure of family education, the failure of school education, the failure of social education.

Now it's called a video game, fifteen years ago it was called early love, thirty years ago it was an idol, thirty years ago it was a Hong Kong and Taiwan movie, and forty years ago it was martial arts.

But Auntie, do you know that in the near future, with the popularization of smartphones and wireless networks, games will become universal and popular. At that point, even people like you will not be able to let go, so what do you think of what you have done today?"

Seeing the incredulity in Gu's mother's eyes, Ling Feng became even more confident.

"E-sports is as high a barrier to entry as sports, either with children's skills or very strong talents, both of which are indispensable. In today's market, it's still a very niche sport, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have a future. ”

After listening to Ling Feng, Gu Yong's family was shocked, as if his words had broken the original knowledge system. Gu Yong was the first to react and gave Ling Feng a thumbs up.

Gu's mother knew that she couldn't talk about Ling Feng, so she changed her perspective, "Let what you say, but what about money, how will Xiaoyong support himself in the future if he doesn't make money." ”

Ling Feng smiled and said, "Everything (qíng) is risky, I said that playing professionally is the same as being a sports athlete, except for training and training every day. As for the reward, let's not talk about the people at the top of the pyramid, or the people in the middle of the tower, but the people at the bottom.

When they pass the tryout, they stay in the club all day as if they were going to work, and they play, the wind doesn't blow and the rain doesn't rain. Although the salary is only a few thousand yuan, it is basically enough for food and housing. ”

Gu Yong hurriedly interjected, "The contract is written for 3,000 yuan." ”

Gu's mother snorted coldly, "Then it's better to go to school hard, and when you graduate, find a company to work in." ”

Ling Feng nodded in agreement, "Yes, the kind of life where you can see the head at a glance is really what Gu Yong wants? Now there is a very good opportunity in front of him, if Gu Yong can persevere, he will be the pioneer of this industry in the future, and the future is limitless." And after I graduate, I will also dabble in this industry, and I will do my best to help him.

Auntie, of course, you can also insist that Gu Yong choose an ordinary job, and then live this life plainly. When he was seventy or eighty, he looked back and thought about it, it turned out that he had a chance to stand on top of the world, but unfortunately he passed by like that. ”

Gu Mu's brows were tightly locked, hesitating, and her fingers unconsciously tapped on her legs, "Is it really as good as you say?"

Ling Feng picked up the water cup on the table and took a sip, paused and said, "Of course not! Auntie, because reality is always cruel, and all rewards are greater than pay." Gu Yong just wants to seize this opportunity now and use the summer vacation to give it a try to see if he is this material. Don't you agree to such a small request?

After Gu's mother figured it out, she was a little moved and said her last worry, "But I'm still afraid that he will be deceived." ”

After Gu Yong heard his mother let go, he looked at Ling Feng with excitement on his face, and was about to speak, but Ling Feng was stopped.

"You don't have to worry about this, I have already solved the team that invited Gu Yong, it is very formal, uncles and aunts can rest assured. If you really can't rest assured, you can accompany Gu Yong to investigate. But uncles and aunts, you have to be mentally prepared first, this is to work, not to enjoy life. The road to the profession is very hard, and the conditions are very simple before you get the results. ”

Gu's mother glanced at Gu's father and Gu Yong, and said with some distress: "I still don't want him to suffer." ”

Ling Feng nodded in understanding, "People always have to grow, and Gu Yong can't stay in your wings for a lifetime. You can't see the rainbow without experiencing the wind and rain, you can help him once, you can't help him every time, how to go in the future, doesn't it depend on him in the end!"

Seeing that Gu's mother was still entangled, Ling Feng's purpose had been achieved, and everything he should say and what he shouldn't say had been said, he stood up (shēn) and prepared to leave, "Uncle and aunt, everything I want to say has been finished, then I'll leave first." ”

"Xiaofeng, thank you, Auntie will think about it seriously. ”

Ling Feng nodded and turned (shēn) to leave, Gu Yong hurriedly sent him to the door, patted (xiōng) and said, "Boss, I don't thank you for my great kindness, brother, I have it all in my heart." ”

Ling Feng said with disgust on his face: "Don't fix those vain, you still have to think about how to thank me, for you, I am about to smoke in my throat." ”

"Don't worry, I promise to satisfy you, and when the matter (qíng) is perfectly resolved, I will go to you. ”

"Let the rest be, and don't force it. Ling Feng patted Gu Yong's shoulder and comforted.

"Understood. ”

......

"Mom, how are you thinking about it? Do you agree to let me go?" Gu Yong said while sitting on the sofa and putting his arms around Gu's mother's neck.

"Is this matter (qíng) really as reliable as Ling Feng said?" Gu Mu was still a little hesitant in her heart.

"I don't know if it's reliable or not, anyway, I know that Ling Feng (tǐng) is reliable. Gu Yong deliberately paused and continued, "Mom, guess how much Ling Feng earns a month now?"

"How much?"

"This number!" Gu Yong stretched out a finger.

"A thousand?"

"No, you guess. Gu Yong shook his head and said.

"Ten thousand?"

"It's a million!" Gu Yong said directly, "It's still a mobile phone text message that I saw with my own eyes." ”

Gu's father and Gu's mother gasped and looked at each other.

After a long time, he slowly spoke, "It seems that Ling Feng, this kid, is really different from before. So, son, you give me the phone number of that club, and I'll contact you tomorrow. ”

"Mom, did you agree?" Gu Yong said excitedly.

"Let's talk about it after contacting, if they are not formal, I won't let you go!"

"If they weren't formal, I wouldn't go. Gu Yong jumped up excitedly.
