Chapter 380: Hong Xiao without childhood
"Of course, it's going to the esports center, not far ahead." Zi Xinxin said very happily.
Zi Xinxin got into Hong Xiao's car, and after a while, the two arrived.
"Brother Hong Xiao, this is the e-sports center, you haven't been here before, I must let you see it this time." Zi Xinxin said with a smile.
After the two got out of the car, they came to the door of the e-sports center, and at this time, there were already many people inside.
"So many people, they don't study, they play games every day, how can this be." Seeing that there were a lot of people playing the game, Hong Xiao couldn't help but say.
Most of the people who play games here are about the same age as Zi Xinxin, and they should all be high school students.
So many high school students don't learn to play games, isn't it a waste of youth!
"Oh, Brother Hong Xiao, you don't know, now e-sports is popular, it's not just a game, it's also a profession.
Many people who are engaged in various e-sports projects rely on this to make money, and such people are professional gamers, and many people who play games want to become professional gamers. ”
It is not an exaggeration to say that Hong Xiao is well-informed now, but in the field of games, there is really no design.
If it weren't for Zi Xinxin taking Hong Xiao to see, Hong Xiao probably wouldn't have known in his life that there are still people in this world who make a career out of playing games.
What's more, these people not only regard gaming as a profession, but also make a lot of money, and they don't have to be white-collar workers at all, and even much higher than many so-called gold-collar incomes.
The prize money of a competition is enough for others to earn for several years.
However, among the professional gamers, most of them have good living conditions, and many of them have poor family conditions, and they can't even use the computer a few times, so how can they play any games.
Therefore, these young people with good family conditions still make great contributions to the development of professional games, especially in the early stage of the development of professional games.
Children from rich families tend to be more disqualified than children from poor families, and it is not because they are stupid, but because they lack motivation.
The excessively superior material foundation has allowed them to see the future of fine clothes and food since they were young, and the glory and wealth of their lives, their hard work seems pale and powerless, and the road they should take will still go up.
Therefore, they tend to choose something they like to do, rather than being forced to choose their career, future, or even hobbies like the poor.
At this time, games have become the choice of most children from wealthy families.
It's just that some people play some with a purpose, and some don't.
In the end, those who have no purpose become the eliminators, they play the game with money and end up being abandoned by the game.
And those who have a purpose, they are also playing games with money, but after the initial investment, they start to pay off.
Swap a small portion of your money for a large portion of your money.
Among these people, the better ones become professional gamers.
……
Entering the e-sports center, Hong Xiao found that almost all of the people in the e-sports center were young people, most of them looked to be about 20 years old, and some were in their thirties, but there were very few.
These people were staring intently at the computer screen in front of them, their fingers darling over the keyboard.
It's just that Hong Xiao can't understand what they are playing, this is indeed quite sad.
Looking at Hong Xiao left and right, as if he had really never been to the e-sports center, Zi Xinxin smiled.
It turned out that there were things that Hong Xiao had never touched.
"What kind of games are these people playing, why haven't they watched it in a row? Isn't there a professional game in a row? If there is, I'm definitely going to participate, I'm a super expert. Hong Xiao said with some disappointment.
"What?" Zi Xinxin's eyes widened, and she watched the professional game even again, and it was a shame that Hong Xiao could say such a thing, how could there be any professional game even if she watched it again and again.
"Brother Hong Xiao, your idea is really good, but even if you have Lianlian to watch the professional competition, I'm afraid that the participants are all girls, and you are the only man, hahaha!" Zi Xinxin said with a laugh.
"I just feel that the practice is very interesting, there are a lot of beautiful women." Hong Xiao was not annoyed, and said with a smile.
"Okay, it looks like Miss Ben is going to teach you some new games today, have you ever played LOL?" Zi Xinxin asked.
“LOL? What is that? "Hong Xiao, a game idiot who only plays beautiful women, of course doesn't know what LOL is.
Zi Xinxin knew that Hong Xiao must have never heard of this game, so she introduced: "LOL, Huaxia is 'League of Legends', which is a multiplayer online tactical arena (MOBA) game developed and published by Riot-Games on Windows and MAC-OS-X platforms, which is a bit similar to Warcraft in the early years.
This game is one of the most popular games of Penguin.,It's very popular.,Miss Ben is the master of the diamond rank of this game.。 ”
But when Zi Xinxin said this, Hong Xiao didn't understand it at all.
Hong Xiao didn't even know what Warcraft was, so how could he understand the so-called games that were very similar to Warcraft?
"I'm not interested in that LOL, so let's go play that." Hong Xiao refused Zi Xinxin's request and pointed to a corner of the e-sports center.
Looking in the direction of Hong Xiao's finger, Zi Xinxin only felt that her world was being turned upside down.
In the direction of Hong Xiao's finger, there was nothing else, only a bunch of various game machines, including shooting machines, dancing machines, whack-a-mole, three-dimensional pinball, and so on.
And all the children who play there are children who are not more than ten years old.
"What do you say? Where are we going? I...... You...... Make no mistake, right? Zi Xinxin couldn't understand what Hong Xiao said to Lei.
It's clearly a child's paradise, but I'm an adult, how can I go there to play.
Hong Xiao can't deliberately play himself, right?
Zi Xinxin had to be suspicious.
However, Zi Xinxin wronged Hong Xiao this time, and Hong Xiao wanted to go there to play.
The various game machines in that corner used to appear in a place called the amusement hall, which was the memory of Hong Xiao when he was a child, and it was a unique childhood for children of that era.
However, because his family was poor and focused on studying, Hong Xiao only went to the amusement hall once when he was a child, and he only watched it, but did not play.
When Hong Xiao saw these game consoles again, he suddenly wanted to have a good time, so he naturally built yì and went over there.
Seeing that Zi Xinxin seemed a little reluctant, Hong Xiao was not reluctant.
"If you don't want to go, I'll go myself."
After speaking, Hong Xiao walked directly to that corner, and under the surprised gaze of the staff, he exchanged a hundred yuan of game currency, which was a full three hundred!
The missing childhood, Hong Xiao has to make up for it all at once, and a hundred yuan is enough to play for a long time.
Hong Xiao first made it to a game console called "Three Kingdoms", and after investing two game coins, he was ready to start playing.
The Three Kingdoms is one of the most classic games in the amusement hall in Hong Xiao's childhood, and now many children like to play it.
After the player puts in the coin, he can choose a character in the Three Kingdoms to operate and break through the level.
Seeing that Hong Xiao really wanted to play those things, and also changed the game currency, Zi Xinxin pouted and ran over.
"Give me two in-game coins, and I'll play too." Zi Xinxin said.
"Huh...... Will you play this too? ”
Unexpectedly, Zi Xinxin really followed, and Hong Xiao generously gave her a lot of game currency, so that she could play casually.
"Hmph, I don't know how to play, let's start, I want to choose Zhao Zilong, he is handsome!"
It turned out that Zi Xinxin's criterion for choosing characters was whether they were handsome or not.
And Hong Xiao is different, he chose Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang, the first hero in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
It turns out that what Zi Xinxin said is not a lie, she is really good at playing this game, and she plays it very well.
However, although Zi Xinxin can play, there is still a lot of gap compared with Hong Xiao who played for the first time.
Although Hong Xiao is playing for the first time, except for some dark cards that he doesn't know, he has gone all the way and has almost no blood.
And although Zi Xinxin is already very powerful, there are less than two-thirds of the blood bars left in a tube.
"Hong Xiao, you're so powerful." Zi Xinxin kind of understands why Hong Xiao wants to play this game, it must be very cool to play so well.
"It's my first time playing, so it's not like this." Hong Xiao said while playing.
"......" Zi Xinxin was speechless.
If he didn't know Hong Xiao's personality, Zi Xinxin would have thought that he was pretending.
"Hmph, I don't believe it yet, I can't play a first-time game console, let's stop playing this, play Street Fighter, heads-up." Zi Xinxin was not convinced, and wanted to play a battle game with Hong Xiao and compete against him.
Hong Xiao has also heard of the game Street Fighter, and since Zi Xinxin wants to play it, then play it.
So the two switched games and continued to play.
……
Qin Yufei was born in a special family, although he is not rich and expensive, but his father's power is monstrous, and he can do it without worrying about food and clothing.
Moreover, Qin Yufei doesn't like to be in politics, he doesn't have this interest, and doing business is a good choice, but Qin Yufei is not the kind of person who thinks about making money all the time, so sometimes when he is idle, he really doesn't know what to do.
But Young Master Qin is not scrupling, in his spare time, he plays games, does sports, occasionally speculates in stocks to make money, and while increasing the interest of life, he can be regarded as having no wasted time.
With the rise of LOL's popularity, Young Master Qin fell in love with this game, so he began to practice constantly, and money and time were not a problem for him.
In addition, Qin Yufei does have a talent for playing games, so after a long time, he is really at some level, although he is not a professional player, but he is not worse than a professional player.
At the same time, because of his money, Qin Yufei became the first player in Pearl City to buy more than 100 heroes and nearly 1,000 skins in LOL, which is money to burn.
As for Qin Yufei's love of playing this game, his family has no objection, anyway, this guy has nothing to do when he doesn't make money, and playing games is better than going out to cause trouble.
Young Master Qin's family all knew that he rarely caused trouble, just because the time he spent causing trouble was spent playing games.
Qin Yufei's father knows how strict it is to have a pit father's son, Qin Yufei doesn't cheat his father, he can make money, and even play games to become famous, Qin Yufei's father is still happy in his heart, but he just doesn't say it.

There was nothing to do today, Qin Yufei, who was in a good mood, decided to come to the e-sports center to play for a while, and it was convenient to meet someone at noon.
After Qin Yufei came to the e-sports center, before he could sit down to play, he saw a person in the corner of the game area who was very familiar with his back.
Qin Yufei's eyes lit up, and he wanted to go over.
But when he saw that there was another person beside him, and it was a man, his face suddenly turned cold.
