Chapter Ninety-Five: News

Alice's home is on Lake Washington in the eastern suburbs of Seattle.

Standing on the edge of the lake, it consists of several large reddish-brown lofts and looks like a small scenic village by the lake.

But it's a mansion, a mansion for all.

"There are no more than 50 people in the whole of America who can buy land here and build villas according to their own designs." Huo Xixian explained.

Lu Fei nodded, in fact, he had no interest in these things, he came here today purely to go through the motions.

However, when the Mustang actually drove into Alice's compound, Lu Fei's concept of the rich family in the past was completely subverted.

Although Alice's home looks like a combination of the shabby hot pot cities at the back gate of Xijing University, it is actually very modern, in addition to the entertainment center, gymnasium, movie theater, swimming pool, private airport, and the most surprising thing is that there is a man-made waterfall, an oceanarium, and all kinds of strange flowers and trees.

These are managed by the world's most advanced hydroelectric system, which can be said to be a very clever combination of technology and nature, which reflects the unique taste of the owner of the mansion.

When I got off the bus, I saw a group of people standing in the middle of the courtyard from a distance.

Except for Mr. Blatter, who he had met before, Lu Fei didn't know any of the other people, and he didn't want to know them.

Seeing Alice, Mr. Blatter, who had always been serious, showed a kind smile.

"Dad, Lu and Miss Alva are here together." Alice took her father's hand and walked over to her.

"You're welcome, Lu." Blatter is no stranger to Lu Fei, in fact, he knows a lot of things, Alice has been away from home for several months, this is the first time he has returned, and it is the first time he has brought a boy home, everyone knows what it means.

"Don't be inhibited, just be your own home." Blatter said.

When he said this, Lu Fei was nervous: "Okay, okay." ”

"Is this the Chinese guy Lu Fei?" Alice had one more person by her side.

Lu Fei noticed that this was a very beautiful middle-aged woman, and she was very close to Alice, so she must have been an outstanding beautiful woman when she was young.

"Lu, this is my mommy." Alice introduced.

Lu Fei hurriedly said, "Hello, what should I call you?" ”

Karina didn't answer, just looked at him with a smile, and her gaze made Lu Fei very embarrassed.

"You can just call me Karina, do you think I'm as young as Alice? Are we like sisters? Karina said with a smile.

Lu Fei was dumbfounded.

Alice immediately shouted: "Mom, why are you always like this, don't be like this in front of outsiders, okay?" ”

Karina smiled: "Is Lu an outsider?" ”

Alice's face turned red.

Lu Fei was stunned, standing still and not speaking, but Alice and her mother were talking and laughing.

In the final analysis, he still doesn't understand American culture.

Seeing a large group of celebrities talking and laughing in the distance, Lu Fei just sat on the white table and chair with Huo Xixian and watched quietly.

"Aren't you used to this kind of occasion?" Huo Xixian asked.

"It's a little." Lu Fei pulled his tie, "It's just that the most unaccustomed thing is to wear this suit, which is very uncomfortable." ”

Huo Xixian looked at him with a smile: "Don't say it, you're quite handsome in formal clothes." ”

"You're hurting me, aren't you?" Lu Fei also smiled.

After Alice introduced them one by one, Lu Fei learned that Alice also had two sisters and an elder brother, and all the people present were social elites and celebrities in the business world, in fact, this kind of gathering was very boring for people like Lu Fei.

Because he had been sitting very bored by the garden, only Huo Xixian accompanied him and chatted.

After a long time, two more people came from the direction of the gate.

Seeing these two people, Lu Fei's face had a smile, he stood up and said respectfully, "Mr. Green." ”

Green patted Lu Fei on the shoulder and said with a smile, "This outfit makes you look very energetic today." ”

Lu Fei smiled: "Haha, is it?" ”

"Haha, of course." Green hugged Lu Fei's shoulders affectionately, "Lu, come, come with me over there, let's talk alone, see that you are in such good spirits today, I will bring you a piece of news that makes your spirit better." ”

"Huh, huh?" Lu Fei happily followed Green to the lawn.

Huo Xixian looked at them with a smile: "It seems that only with Mr. Green will he be truly happy, Dad, do you see his smile, how hearty." ”

Huo Jingde also said: "Why can't I see it? Alva, is he the one you really like? ”

Huo Xixian was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "No, no." ”

Huo Jingde couldn't help but smile meaningfully: "Your father and I have read countless people in my life, can't you still see your little daughter's mind?" ”

"Dad, don't talk nonsense, I'm just his agent, and I'm just a friend in private." Huo Xixian said.

Huo Jingde smiled: "But you have to work hard, Lao Bu's youngest daughter has a greater advantage than you, you see that she has brought this kid to her parents today, you still have a chance, Dad, I will support you." ”

Huo Xixian couldn't help but blush: "I, I didn't." ”

Huo Xixian laughed: "Don't hide it, it's okay for you to hide from others, I can't hide it from my father, since you went to the TV station to exercise, there are a lot of people who pursue you, and you usually refuse others thousands of miles away, but for this young boy, you actually left the TV station to put a single line, except for liking this kid, I really can't find any other explanation, well, but that's fine, he is a Chinese, and I am also very optimistic about him." ”

"Are you really optimistic about him?" Huo Xixian said curiously.

Huo Jingde smiled: "Of course, don't think that I invested in the MDK club because of you, I won't spoil my daughter like Lao Bu, he has so much money that he has no place to burn, my investment has to be effective." ”

Huo Xixian sniffed out from this sentence: "Dad, do you have any news about the operation of the club?" ”

"Haha, worthy of being my good daughter, smart."

Huo Xixian hurriedly grabbed him and coquettishly said: "Tell me if it's okay, I want to know." ”

Huo Jingde smiled: "Okay, then I'll test you, do you know the Ligarena company?" ”

Huo Xixian hesitated: "Is it the e-sports marketing company in France?" ”

"Yes." Huo Jingde said, "Their company has a very famous event brand called Lan_Arena. ”

Huo Xixian hurriedly said: "I know, it's from the Lan_Arena founded in 1999, I heard that it is a party that combines the competition with the carnival party. ”

Huo Jingde said: "Lan_Arena a few days ago has been renamed ElectronicSportsorldCup (E-sports World Cup), the official name is ESC, in another month, they will launch the first 'World Masters Invitational', held in Paris, France, this time more than 50 countries and regions participated, this first session does not use qualifiers, but directly invites famous teams and clubs from all over the world to participate." ”

Huo Xixian hesitated: "Direct invitation? But how much can you invite in doing so? ”

Huo Jingde smiled: "I think if there is no accident, everyone who should go, because the championship prize alone is as high as 200,000 euros, and there are also runner-up and third place awards, the best sniper, AK prince, tactician master and many other awards, with a total prize of more than 1 million euros, I think as long as the club and team in the world are invited, they can't refuse the temptation of this kind of event." ”

Huo Xixian said: "I understand, why not select, presumably CS is the first time to become an ESC competitive project, directly with a high prize money to start its fame, these intangible commercial value and influence, far more than the prize money itself." She sighed again, "Actually, I should have thought that CPL and CG were also produced in this way back then, but Ligarena is really willing to spend money." ”

"This is called reluctant children can't trap wolves, if you have the opportunity to host a world-class giant event in the future, you should also learn this trick, and you will have a long experience, right?" Huo Jingde laughed.

Huo Xixian said solemnly: "Dad, do you think I have the ability to hold it?" ”

"Then it depends on whether you have the ability to make money." Huo Jingde smiled, "Hehe, in fact, this is what I want to tell you today, after the efforts of me and Lao Bu, MDK will also participate in this competition this time." ”

"Huh?"

Huo Jingde said: "Ligarena invited all the world's countries, competitions, and major luxury clubs to represent the team, MDK has won the season championship in the I League, and in the list of invited teams, it is just not a seeded team. ”

"Haha, it would be nice to be able to go." Huo Xixian couldn't help but be a little excited, if Lu Fei led MDK to create another miracle in ESC, this time the influence will no longer be the United States, but the entire North America and Europe, and even Asia, and China will also have an impact.

"Are you thinking that if Lu Fei succeeds, then MDK is not only a wealthy family in the true sense, but also our agency and advertising company can also make a lot of money?" Huo Jingde looked at her slyly.

Huo Xixian clapped his hands and said, "How can it be more than that? That's a huge benefit for everyone. ”

"But don't get too happy." Huo Jingde poured a basin of cold water on her, "This Ligarena company is very professional and strict, only team leaders, players and interpreters are allowed to stay, managers, agents, sponsors are not eligible to enter, even media reporters are special, in other words, even me and Lao Green can't go, let alone you." ”

"So Alice can accompany Lu Fei, but I can't?" Huo Xixian couldn't help but ask this sentence.

"Quite right!" Huo Jingde looked at her meaningfully.
