Chapter 20: Parting Ways
Leaving the classroom, Gao Zhen could still hear Gong Nan's crazy laughter in the classroom.
He sighed and walked back to his old classroom. Suddenly, he heard someone calling behind him.
It's none other than Song Tianxi, who Gao Zhen is looking for.
"You're finally back." Gao Zhen stepped forward and patted his old friend.
"What? You were cleaned up by that girl in Gongnan? Song Tianxi smiled and looked at the slightly embarrassed high pillow.
"You still mention her, do you know what she has done in the e-sports club?" High Pillow Road.
"That's what I want her to do." Song Tianxi helped his glasses and put his hand on the high pillow shoulder.
"Huh? Why? "I can't tell you how surprised I am.
"Hey, kidding you, so seriously. Smoking a cigarette? Song Tianxi took out a cigarette case from his jacket pocket.
"No." There is no habit of smoking.
"Why do you always care about these things?" Song Tianxi stuffed a cigarette into his mouth, lit it, and took a puff with satisfaction.
"Tianxi, do you think the old president wants to see the e-sports club he founded become what it is now? Have you ever wondered how people who truly love gaming feel? What was the original intention of the old president to start the e-sports club at that time? Give players a warm home! Why can't you make the e-sports club simpler, everyone is together just for the game, okay? ”
"Pillow up, you still haven't changed." Song Tianxi pulled the high pillow and walked to the balcony at the end of the corridor, lying on the railing, and spit out the smoke in his mouth into the cold night.
"You're just thinking about things with 'love'. Do you think it's easy? Now that the game is so popular, there are more and more people in the society, and the more people there are, the more difficult it is to manage, who knows if they want to find happiness from the game, or want to find benefits from the game? A game is inherently a complex thing, and it is a carrier of many things. You say you love it? It's just love for what it carries."
Song Tianxi looked out the window and continued: "Reboot II is no longer what it was when it first came out. Once a game gathers a group of players, once it has been in operation for a period of time, an invisible chain of interests will be generated. Hey, forget it, if I don't tell you this, you won't understand it. Song Tianxi waved his hand.
"Anyway, there will be people who use the game for profit, and why not the developer of the game? You're just taking Reboot II too seriously. Song Tianxi patted Gao Zhen's back.
"I don't think Reboot II is the same, it's different from all the games I've played before." Gao Zhen looked into Song Tianxi's eyes and said, "Don't you feel it?" It's like reliving your life in it. ”
"You don't have a fever, do you?" Song Tianxi reached out to touch Gao Zhen's forehead, but was opened by Gao Zhen's hand.
"Have you seen The Matrix? Or "Truman's World"? Life can also be a game. Isn't it alike that we're alive and we're alive in Reboot II, sometimes? ”
"So what exactly are you trying to say?" Song Tianxi finished smoking a cigarette and lit another one.
"Maybe we can't change the player base of the whole world, but we can at least change the esports community. Wouldn't it be nice to fire those who resell equipment in the e-sports club, buy and sell game accounts, and ask for high social fees, and give players a warm home? "I expressed my wish.
"You chose to quit the esports club in the first place, and now you are asking so much of us, you are really funny. Why don't I give you my position as president? Song Tianxi spread out his hands and looked at Gao Zhen with a smile on his face.
Gao Zhen didn't speak, but also leaned on the railing of the balcony, looking out the window at the bleak night sky.
He suddenly felt that what he sometimes said was very ridiculous, and that what he sometimes did was very childish. Just like when he was playing games, he was always very demanding, but he thought everything too well and everything too perfectly. He can't be like Song Tianxi, although he sees everything clearly, he can choose a calm attitude, be calm and peaceful, and go with the flow.
"Do you know what I'm doing this time in the United States? In addition to going to a university in the United States to exchange academic knowledge, I also learned about their e-sports club. Song Tianxi interrupted Gao Zhen's imagination.
"They've done a very mature job with Reboot II, and I'm here to learn from the experience and prepare for our school's intramural competition next month."
"Reboot II has always been the most popular in the world in our country, and this year's new custom mod mode has once again pushed the popularity to the top. In order to train more outstanding competition players, the country decided to start with college students to compete and select. ”
"Isn't it, the school will hold an intramural competition next month, and the champion team of the intramural competition will become our school's future varsity team, fighting for the school. In addition to this honor, the school team will also receive a bonus of 500,000 yuan from the school! Song Tianxi rubbed his fingers in front of Gao Zhen's eyes, meaning that there was a lot of money.
"So you know why the esports club is expanding like crazy and recruiting talent. Of course, it's to build the best team in the school. No advanced equipment, no premium account, how can you compare with other teams, isn't it? I can tell you that everyone in our team now has Silver Star Orange Martial Arts. ”
Gao Zhen looked back at Song Tianxi's eyes, and saw a trace of greed in them.
"It turns out that these things in the society are still arranged by you." Takazu sighed and shook his head. He didn't want to argue with Song Tianxi anymore, and it was useless to talk about it now. The Tao is different, and they do not conspire with each other.
"I misread you, I thought you were also a person who really loves games, a person who can look at everything very lightly. I didn't expect you to be a person who uses games as a tool for profit, and cares about everything. After saying this, Gao Pillow turned and walked away, walking into the darkness of the hallway.
"Sit back! Don't you want to beat me in the intramural competition? Song Tianxi shouted at his back.
……
The lonely moon hangs high, like the heart of a lonely person at night, cold as frost.
Gao Zhen walked on the road between the sycamore and the road, and he was very worried. An autumn wind blew, ruffling his hair and the fragile faith in his heart.
Is what you insist on correct? Is everything you love real?
Gao Zuo suddenly regretted coming to participate in the activities of the e-sports club. He even guessed that he had fallen into Song Tianxi's trap today. When they logged into their account to play the game, they stole his information, stole his password, and took away his account. The magic weapons and equipment that you were once proud of will be exchanged for cash and put into these people's wallets.
That account is the one that Gao Zhen has been playing since the release of Reboot II, and has been with him for almost three years. The equipment, weapons, and magic weapons in it were all created by him, and every item was created by him with great effort.
Now he seems to have fallen out of love, and the pain in his heart is unbearable and unbearable. He wants revenge, but feels powerless. In this autumn night, I just want to find a warm and sweet place to comfort myself.
Thinking of this, he picked up his mobile phone and called the fat man.
"Hello? Fat man, is your maid's coffee over there? I'm going to have a few drinks too......"
