052 Orientation

Until the Spring Festival Gala broadcast on the TV in the lounge has begun to perform singing and dancing programs, Lu Xinlei still hasn't found anything she can intervene in.

The uncles and aunts who left a few days ago are not completely unprepared, and the door frames on the left and right sides of the base gate have been pasted on the door frames, which can be regarded as a couplet, but it is only there, and there is no layout in the rooms inside the base.

Therefore, in the first two hours after the man came to the base without warning, he had been busy with this matter, and Lu Xinlei, who was seriously deficient in the most important attributes, could only paddle while watching.

- But it's not without warning, earlier today, Lang Guangnan sent a few messages to the girl to tell her that he was coming, but Lu Xinlei, who was not in the mood to pay attention, of course, didn't know, and in general, the communication was still not in place.

Although the man didn't say next time that he could do such a thing by himself, and suggested that the girl go back to the lounge or her room to wait for a while, Lu Xinlei, who always felt that letting others do things on their own and being idle, was really unhappy, still followed his progress.

And in this way, she is not the only one who will feel uncomfortable: Lang Guangnan, who really has something to do, also began to feel a little at a loss.

It's really okay to finish the job at hand in silence, but then it will be very boring for me. From Lu Xinlei's point of view, it is enough for him to come here, and even one person can solve most of her psychological problems, but Lang Guangnan, who is not sure about this, still feels that he must at least do better.

So how do you talk about it? The man probably thought so, and the work in his hands still did not stop - as a person in the domestic circle who cannot be said to be the best, he can be regarded as excellent, of course, he has enough "emotional intelligence" to think about it.

After all, it's the kind of person who keeps the birthday of every player he knows in his address book and calls to bless them on a daily basis, and knows when to do what to do.

There is nothing to say about the fact that family problems are clearly minefields; I've talked a lot about games and careers before, and if I mention it again, I will inevitably be suspicious of fried cold rice; When it comes to the topic of private life, the two probably haven't gotten acquainted to this extent - a better entry point is probably the other party's previous job as a student.

As far as he knows, this girl's grades in the first two years are considered to be excellent, and Da is not a little-known school, and there will probably be a lot of topics under the combination of the two parties:

"Well, it might be a bit abrupt to ask like this, how did you come up with the idea of playing a game, Xiao Lu." The man stepped down from the stool on his feet, smoothed the end of the long strip of red paper in front of him, and asked seemingly casually, "Our group of elderly people are Internet addicted teenagers who can only play games...... What are you? I think the grades in the big school are pretty good. ”

He could indeed remember this, the girl had mentioned consciously or unconsciously that she could get a scholarship.

"Also...... There is no reason to do so. Lu Xinlei, who was suddenly asked, thought about it, and telling the truth in this matter would probably be regarded as a complete joke by the other party, so the seven truths and three falsehoods style of words are still useful, "I want to say that I had a dream, and after I woke up from the dream, I really wanted to win the Ti championship, will you laugh at me." ”

"What's the point of laughing at this," the man tore off a piece of scotch tape and pressed the bottom of the couplet tightly, "but as far as I can see, you seem to have started playing Dota since September last year?" ”

"Hmm."

"Then your speed of progress-" Although this incident itself was one of the reasons why the girl attracted Lang Guangnan's attention, it was quite shocking for him to confirm this matter from the other party's mouth again, "It took half a year to reach this height, and our club really took advantage." ”

"What's the advantage," Lu Xinlei smiled wryly, "I still have to rely on the club to play results." ”

Realizing that if he continued to talk like this, it might become a sincere teaching from his seniors in the workplace to his juniors, and he would push the chat further in the direction of boredom, Lang Guangnan also changed the topic in time: "Why can't I see you live recently?" Didn't it work very well before. ”

"Ah, this," the girl licked her lips, "the account I used to stream was actually my roommate's, and I used her device. ”

"In this case, does that mean that there is no account now?"

Lu Xinlei nodded.

"Then you should be able to do it yourself, there will always be a head to using other people's information to commercialize this kind of thing," the man moved his fingers, bent down and picked up the bench and walked to the next door that needed to be pasted with couplets, and Lu Xinlei behind him also picked up the cardboard box and followed, "Anyway, you will be an adult next month, and now you will start preparing for the live broadcast, and you should be able to handle it yourself when you can sign the contract." ”

"That's ...... Good. Although there was nothing wrong with such a proposal, the girl still acted as if she was hesitating - but it was not, it was just the result of a temporary short-circuit in her brain.

Such "hesitation" did not escape the man's notice, but he did not directly persuade the girl, but turned his mouth and began to talk about some of his own things: "Speaking of which, I have actually been live streaming recently...... However, it is rare to broadcast Dota live. ”

This is nothing new for Lu Xinlei, who understands that men may indeed be preparing to retire, in fact, she has also seen men's live broadcasts - also in Whale War, indeed as he said, Dota has very little content, and more of it is like an ordinary life zone anchor to share her life.

The response seems to be pretty good, after all, there are still some live audiences who show the lives of staff members in professional clubs from the perspective of participants, not to mention the AckX layer, even if the live broadcast content is not related to Dota, it can attract irrelevant passers-by.

"You've been streaming pure Dota content before." Lu Xinlei continued with the man's words, "Why do you want to do this now? ”

"There's always a little bit of change, isn't it?" The man put the stool at the door of the room at the destination, pulled out a couplet from the box in the girl's arms, and unfolded it to roughly divide the upper and lower couplets, "As long as I still do live streaming of Dota game content, the popularity should still be there, this is the most guaranteed, but I want to do some other content on this basis." ”

"Is this the surplus of the champion-" The girl rarely wanted to say a yin and yang weirdness, but due to the factors of her voice and image, this long sentence sounded like a coquette.

After hearing her voice clearly, the girl, who was also aware of this, couldn't help but shiver.

"It's okay." Lang Guangnan didn't respond to anything other than the language of this sentence, he stopped what he was doing, and thought about it for a while, "Actually, in terms of amount, the Ti4 championship bonus has been destroyed by me in the past few years, but the capital left after that can't be measured by the prize money alone." ”

"You mean visibility and attention?"

"That's right," the man sighed, pulled out a piece of tape and bit it off, and after a while he continued: "Although when I was a player, I felt that these things, no matter how I put it, were all miscellaneous things that interfered with the player's serious game, but from the perspective of the player, maybe these things are the most important." ”

"The prize money for the champion of the C League is about 2 million yuan, and the specific division may be different according to the different clubs, and the dividends and bonuses that can come to the hands of each player in the first team are about 300,000."

"That is?" Lu Xinlei didn't even have to think much about it to figure out what she could do if she had money, and this six-figure huge sum of money could already be said to be astronomical for her.

"Don't forget that only five of the more than 20 million Dota players in China can get this number," Lang Guangnan smiled, "If you are the runner-up, each person may be about 200,000, and the relegation team estimates that the league year-end bonus for each player is only five figures, which is no different from finding a good job normally." ”

"You can calculate how much this number can be multiplied by five or six to account for the total prize money, in previous years, the default rule in the domestic circle was that the prize money was divided into three or seven shares, and the player had to take seventy percent of the prize money...... But this is within the scope of the club's permission, and the commercial benefits brought by these players after their results are far greater than the prize money. ”

"The top teams are qualified to make the Ti, and the benefits will naturally not be low...... Last year, for example, as long as they made it to Ti, even if they played in the first round of the group stage, they would have a prize of 200,000 US dollars, and they could double it by playing another round forward, so we didn't need to think about anything for them. ”

"Does it really matter if you talk about your own owner?" Lu Xinlei is completely aware of these things, so she doesn't feel any other feelings.

Lang Guangnan shrugged: "Anyway, I'm a semi-retired person, so what if they know?" ”

"You're not going to sell me for a reward."

He probably made a joke, and after seeing that the other party did not have any rejection reaction, he was roughly sure that this topic could indeed be talked about.

As a celebrity to some extent, when he meets his peers, as long as he wants to take the initiative to chat, he will not be able to find a topic - celebrity gossip can be said to be suitable for men, women and children, and he doesn't have to worry about not enough gossip he can tell.

So he stepped back a little, intercepted some content that could indeed be used as talking points throughout his career, and prepared the next conversation, and a considerable part of these things, Lu Xinlei, or the man from the other world, knew about it.

Not to mention, he even experienced some of them.

Lang Guangnan's game initiation as a gamer was not actually on the Dota project, which she is aware of. The two teenagers were both war3 players, and that man was also revered as the Yinling Ghost King.

And later Lang Guangnan's reason for transforming Dota is similar to that of the man in the past, War3 as an RTS real-time strategy game with a high degree of freedom, can support a lot of gameplay, and now Dota-based Moba games will inevitably mention a battle map called 3C.

WAR3 transitioned to 3C, followed by contact and transformation to Dota, and Dota entered Dota 2 after independence. Although the men of that world did not witness the route of this career, he himself did come through it in this way.

"At that time, there was no such thing as a competition," Lang Guangnan, who was standing in the elevator and preparing to go to the last room on the top floor, said to make a name for himself, "Some people say that we were not enthusiastic about the Dota project in the early days, and as Dota fans want to criticize us, then I can only say that I was not a professional player at that time, but an Internet addict teenager, the hopeless kind." ”

"Play whatever game is interesting."

"Is there anyone like that?" Lu Xinlei had questions about the unexpected, "What games have you played before?" ”

"Of course, there is a big circle, and there are always some people who want to maintain the 'noble purity' of the game." The elevator finally stopped on the top floor, and the man who opened the elevator door turned sideways to let the girl step out of the elevator room first, "But you definitely don't have this kind of problem, you don't seem to have played any games before." ”

"That's right." The girl, who probably knew what she was going to do now, walked forward without waiting for Lang Guangnan to ask, "My room is in front." ”

To be honest, Lu Xinlei refused at first to post a couplet to her room alone in an unoccupied room on the first floor, but Lang Guangnan, who may not seem to be easy to talk at first glance, showed the same stubbornness as his appearance this time:

"The sticker must be posted, at least hang it for the night today, otherwise it will be unruly - it's a big deal to tear it off tomorrow afternoon."

Lang Guangnan insisted, and Lu Xinlei, who instinctively was still half guilty and half jealous of this man, did not continue to say anything, so the last couplet of this box was rightly pasted next to the girl's door frame.

After Lang Guangnan finished his work and moved the stool to the side, the girl narrowed the distance a little: sure enough, as she thought, there was an abrupt addition of a couplet in a row of lifeless white wooden doors, as if to indicate that something terrible lived here.

Lang Guangnan obviously discovered this, what he wanted to do was to put couplets on all the rooms that lived in them like obsessive-compulsive disorder, and now that he had finished pasting, it didn't really matter what he was going to do next:

"Or tear it up."

"There's no need." After it has become a fait accompli, there has been an obvious change in the attitude of the two, "Hang it, hang it...... I can't find the room sometimes, and it's nice to have a mark. ”

So there is only the thing left that should really be done in the Chinese New Year's Eve - because the neighborhood is really remote, there is no restaurant that is still open until the Chinese New Year's Eve, and of course there is no takeaway, so when the last handyman left the day before yesterday, there were enough ingredients and instant food for the girl to eat for herself for a considerable period of time, including quick-frozen dumplings.

Originally, the girl hadn't planned to do this, and it would have sounded bleak to have a commemoration when she was alone, but now that she's not alone in the base, it makes sense to deal with it.

However, Lang Guangnan was obviously more prepared than her, and among the things he brought was a considerable number of handmade dumplings, although they were also bought in the supermarket near his residence, but they were always a little more sincere than the industrial products wrapped in plastic bags.

The next thing is probably in the process, in the courtyard of the base, the sound of firecrackers at the end of the countdown is mixed with the sound from the villages outside the base, and it is the end of the last Lunar New Year - Lang Guangnan even started a live broadcast at this time to commemorate it.

- All in all, although it is small, and it is inevitable that some will not be on the table, but today is indeed a year.

The girl looked overhead, and the gray-purple night sky in winter was lit up by fireworks from time to time, and she was a little distracted.
