There are many talented players in the Chinese esports scene, but there are very few experienced coaches who are willing to take charge.

This problem is one of the obstacles that has plagued the development of China's esports circle, and it is also an extremely embarrassing situation that makes everyone in the industry laugh.

The reason for this problem is that China's esports industry started too late.

Therefore, the professional system is very imperfect, and why did China's esports industry start so late?

Because no one is willing to do these things, and why is no one willing to do this?

Because you can't make money doing this, to be precise......

It's not just that you can't make money, it's just a problem to eat and drink.

In the past few years, most professional gamers had a monthly salary of just over 1,000 yuan, and even had to borrow money if they needed to play in other cities.

Coupled with the lack of relevant domestic competitions, the secondary league is almost a blank, there are no national e-sports events at all, and any city competitions or competitions spontaneously organized by players are even smaller.

Therefore, in the end, most professional gamers have no games to play, and they have to borrow thousands of dollars to play in other cities when they finally have a game.

In the end, even if you win, get the final bonus, come back to spend money to celebrate, and then repay the borrowed money, in the end, there is not much left, which is equivalent to not playing at all.

That's the way it was at the time, the professional players were so pitiful, they were so poor.

Therefore, many talented people die halfway before they make it to the end.

Even the top players at the time were not much better, no matter how good you played, no matter how good your skills were, you even went abroad at public expense to play games against people from other countries.

In the end, he even beat Europe and the United States, and won the championship with his feet on the stick, which was useless.

Because at that time, not many people in China would pay attention to e-sports, let alone recognize the legalization of e-sports.

They don't care, they don't acknowledge, they don't care.

In the eyes of most people at the time, esports was a joke as a group of teenagers who were addicted to the Internet playing games together.

When foreign players only win a runner-up or a mere top four, they will have thousands of fans cheering for them after returning home, let alone a beautiful BMW car.

And China's professional players can only return home in a daze at the empty airport waiting room, and then?

Then in the evening, holding the championship trophy, I celebrated with my teammates eating a bowl of instant noodles for five yuan.

If you get more bonuses, then maybe you can go to a barbecue.

How ironic is that?

Pity.

No one knew about it, and no one cared about it.

And this is probably why the professional environment was so poor at the beginning, and these e-sports old people can also use their persistence and talent to win the championship of world-class competitions.

Maybe it's the opposite, or maybe it's time to move.

The esports industry has grown rapidly in just a few years, and finally returned to the eyes of the people as the king.

Money, fame, beauty, fans.

It seems that at this moment, the four words of professional players are linked, but it is a pity that the original group of people who really fought for their careers and gave all their youth without regrets are old.

These things that should have belonged to them have nothing to do with them, and the honor they received in the first place has slowly faded with the passage of time.

Until forgotten by everyone.

Maybe some people will find it out in the future, and then praise it in a big way.

And then what?

Maybe their Weibo will have so many more fans, but it's a pity that these fans came too late.

It can probably be regarded as a response to the sentence "I was born before I was born, and I am old when you were born".

China's e-sports industry, on the other hand, is growing at a rapid pace, with a rocket-like leap forward in GDP (gross domestic product).

However, there are many problems involved, and the biggest problem is the lack of foundation.

Maybe it's because of the hardships of playing professionally at the beginning, many professional players didn't go to the end, or they went to the end, but then there was no follow-up.

Therefore, the middle level of the e-sports circle is fractured, and the model that should have been a professional player + coach manager + club sponsor has become a professional player + club sponsor.

There are too few experienced coaches or esports people, so that some people are willing to contribute, and some people are willing to contribute, but no one has to balance power and money so that it will not be unbalanced.

In contrast, South Korea is the world's No. 1 e-sports player, and the professional players are really completely professional as they are called, with standard training time, training plans, training venues, and so on.

And even more complete is the coaching team in South Korea.

That's right, a whole coaching team, not just one coach.

The coaching team is staffed with game analysts, tactical analysts, nutritionists, and so on, and all the tasks are assigned by the head coach.

Therefore, the professional players in the team only need to train, exercise, and rest according to the designated plan, and do not have to think about anything other than the game.

On the other hand, in China, the number of players is dozens of times that of South Korea, but the number of coaches is not one-tenth of that of South Korea.

Is it ridiculous?

Amusing!

What's more, even among the so-called coaches in this tenth, there are really only a handful of coaches.

And the club can only be described in four words.

That's a piece of loose sand

The training time is all up to the professional players themselves, three meals a day I don't know how many meals a day has become a few meals a day, as for the private life, I dare not compliment, bring my girlfriend to the base PPP, go to the hotel to eat noodles can not be said to be commonplace, that also happens from time to time.

As for the coaches.

Sorry, that's not called a coach.

To be precise, it's not worth being a coach.

The most accurate name for them would be a life manager or a professional nanny.

They are only responsible for ensuring that the team personnel do not change normally, and then pull people to play in time when they are playing, and train with them or shoot advertisements when they are not playing.

And for this situation, everyone is tacit, you play yours, I play mine, in short, everyone plays their own game.

Whatever you play during the game, that's what it is anyway.

What is the end result?

That is, when the results are in a world-class competition, the results are a mess and difficult to see.

You can win the championship when the competitive environment is poor, but you can't win it when the competitive environment is good.

Is it pathetic?

Lamentable!

In the end, even the deep-pocketed sponsors knew that the situation was not good, and they couldn't let this group of wine bags continue to serve as coaches, otherwise the game would be over.

And since there is no suitable coach in China, then buy it directly from South Korea, anyway, the players have bought it, and it is not bad to spend a few more money to buy a responsible coach back.

Chen Xun was born in such an environment.

To be precise, he was the first to stand up.

He is a current professional player himself, and the oldest of the active pros, he has a lot of experience in MOBA games, and he knows a lot about the operation of the club.

Therefore, after he retired, he directly served as the coach of a small team in a game, after enriching his experience and gaining some experience.

He was invited to coach the IC team, but the club's results were not very good because of the players.

Then the sponsor spent a lot of money to buy SLG's Nakano, that is, Aboy and Candy, the two Korean players, and there is no doubt that this decision was the right one.

Because they have undergone formal training in China and have played for several seasons in the LCK, which is arguably the strongest server in the world, these two Korean players have a lot of experience.

And Chen Xun didn't look at people with colored glasses, fighting for money is not a shameful thing, after all, some people don't even have the qualifications and strength to fight for money.

And then Chen Xun also formulated a specific dispatch with Nakano as the core, using Aboy and Candy to lead the rhythm and successfully bring IC into the door of LPL.

…………

As the most well-known coach in the LPL, Chen Xun's popularity is even higher than that of some professional players.

Therefore, when Liu Hao talked about Chen Xun, Cui Jiadong, Zhou Qi and Mu Jing couldn't help but follow his line of sight and look at the huge electronic screen above his head.

"Hello students, I'm Chen Xun."

Chen Xun in the commentary seat finally spoke, his voice was a little hoarse, but it unexpectedly made people feel good.

"I'm sure you've heard about my resignation from IC." After that, Chen Xun paused, and then continued: "It's true, I've already left IC. ”

"Really? I thought it was just a rumor. ”

"Brother Chen is such a good coach, why should he be replaced?"

"Then will Brother Chen come to our school as a teacher?"

"Wow, that's great! I'm going to his class! ”

"I want to take a photo with Brother Chen! And get him to sign his signature on my mouse pad! ”

"Sign it on the motherboard and keyboard!"

The students in the stadium were excited when they heard this, and it is no wonder that they were not excited.

They don't know the old professional players and coaches, even if they know their strong track record. (For example, several consecutive championships in world-class competitions, etc.)

But after all, I haven't witnessed it on the spot, so I don't have that excitement and sense of belonging, and Chen Xun is not only a well-known coach in the LPL, but more importantly, he and them are a generation.

There will be no generational barriers, not to mention that Chen Xun's character is indeed not said, and there are no black spots in history that make people hack him.

"From next month, I will be a teacher at the Esports Academy of A University, mainly teaching tactics and management, so I welcome you to come to the class when the time comes."

Chen Xun seemed to hear the call in the venue, and said with a smile after pushing the glasses on the bridge of his nose.

Nearly 10,000 students in the venue cheered, as if they had participated in a concert by a well-known singer.

"The next game will also be narrated by Xin Mo and me, and I believe that I will not disappoint all students."

In the competition room, Liu Hao and the others were also very excited, after all, there was a coach of the former LPL first-team team to explain their game, and they would be so excited when they thought about it.

"Okay, all ten players have entered the room of the suits, and then we will move on to the ban/pick session."

As Xin Mo on the commentary bench finished saying this, the game officially began.
