WEM, as the official e-sports tournament in China, attracts many foreign teams and players to participate in the competition every year, but many champions of e-sports in previous editions have been won by domestic teams.

The champion of the previous editions of the CrossFire project was also a domestic team, for example, in 2010, the Longxing World AB team won the championship, and the Longxing World AB team at that time was Dongjia AB, so it was natural to win the championship that year.

In 2010, the championship was only 12,000 US dollars, and according to the exchange rate at that time, it was less than 100,000 yuan, which can be said to be not a high prize money, but it still attracted many teams to participate. In 2012, the WEM championship prize money was directly increased to 22,000 US dollars, an increase of 10,000 US dollars, and the money that each person in the champion team can share is also very considerable, even the eighth place has 4,000 US dollars, and in 2010, the eighth place was only 1,000 US dollars, which shows that with the expansion of the influence of the competition, the General Administration of Sports and the Hangzhou Municipal People's Government have invested more funds.

This event was held in Hangzhou Dianzi University, so it also attracted many teams in Hangzhou Dianzi University to participate in the competition, but after all, they are still students, training time is less, and there is no professional professional mentor to guide training, and there is still a big difference in strength with those real professional teams, so even if they have a home advantage, there are a large number of classmates to support, but they still can't win the championship, not even the eighth place.

The most important goal of the IC club this year is to win the WEM championship, and the ST team has been dragged down by the CFPL and lacks skills, while strong teams such as the Tiger Brothers League and Liaoning Allure Esports have also fought for the WCG World Finals in the WCG China Campaign, and they cannot take care of WEM.

Although WEM is a more important event in China, but compared with WCG, the influence is still a lot worse, the most important thing is that there is no way to compare the prize money, WCG at the beginning of the finals prize money is 300,000 US dollars, although it has shrunk year by year, by 2010 it has only more than 160,000 US dollars, but the champion still has 30,000 US dollars, and the champion of the finals in China also has a prize of 50,000 yuan, that is to say, if the champion of China also won the championship in the global finals, Then it is equivalent to taking two bonuses, which adds up to a very considerable amount.

Later, the sudden rise of lol and CF have the same prize money, becoming the only project in WCG China that can compete with CF in terms of prize money, but although there are many CF competitions, the prize money is not very high. The championship prize of the third season of LOL has reached as high as one million dollars, which means that as long as they win the championship, then the five main players will immediately become rich and handsome, and all of them are millionaires.

CF professional players have not been able to improve the treatment, this is a big problem, plus now new competitive games emerge in an endless stream, just talk about the gun game alone, CF after AVA, counter-war, Wolves, anti-terrorist operations, CSOL, war front, etc., a series of such as mushrooms have sprung up, coupled with the strong rise of lol, dota2's tiger is in the dragon plate, CF's living space is very low, so the treatment of professional players can not be mentioned.

Now the comeback of the sniper god in the CF world,This game has regained great attention and popularity,It is conducive to improving the treatment of active professional players,There is competition to make progress,The salary is the same,The value of the sniper god is high,The value of other professional players will definitely rise,This takes time,But it is an inevitable trend。

Da Mi is actually very committed to promoting the development of CF and improving the treatment of professional players, but she doesn't have enough funds at this stage, after all, the money she uses to run the IC club is given by her father, if one day she can take over the Huakai Manting restaurant chain, then she can do this.

These are all later words, but the most important thing for them at the moment is to win a championship for the team first, a championship in a regular tournament! After Da Mi set a goal at the short meeting, everyone said that they would work hard to achieve this goal.

The cold-blooded and ruthless two seemed very excited, because they had never been out of the province, knowing that WEM was held in Hangzhou, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, Hangzhou's West Lake is famous all over the world, and when the time comes, there will be a chance to go to the West Lake to see.

The famous Broken Bridge and Leifeng Pagoda made the two reverie, where they wanted to go to the game, they obviously wanted to travel. Ye Tian belongs to the kind of person who has no interest in life, and he has no interest in tourism or anything, even if he takes him to a paradise-like place like Jiuzhaigou, it is estimated that he will yawn for a long time, and he has no interest at all.

No matter where a person like Ye Tian goes, he is thinking about what he is interested in, and even when he arrives in Hangzhou, he is still thinking about the competition and how to win the championship, rather than thinking about going to the West Lake for sightseeing. Such people are more focused on doing things and are easy to succeed.

After the meeting ended, Ye Tian had just arrived downstairs when he received a call from Su Yanbing, inviting him to come over for dinner. Ye Qian had indeed not seen Su Yanbing for several days, and Zhao Yunzhu did not go with them today, so Dong Lao Er had no place to eat, Ye Tian asked Su Yan Bing if he could bring Dong Lao Er with him, and Su Yanbing said yes.

So the two took a taxi and went directly to Su Yanbing's coffee shop, since its opening, Su Yanbing's coffee shop business has been very good, every day is full, even now at this time, there are still many people sitting in the coffee shop chatting, and some people are holding laptops to surf the Internet inside.

Because of Su Yanbing's beauty and the taste of the coffee is very pure, this shop quickly became famous, and there were TV reporters who came to interview, and similar news appeared in the newspaper, in short, it attracted much attention, so that during the peak hours of the day, they had to queue up to buy coffee, because there was no place, many people just bought coffee and left, holding it in their hands and drinking it while walking.

Ye Tian and Dong Lao Er walked into the store, Su Yanbing was a little idle at this time, she had already hired two helpers, and she was not as tired as before. She was leaning on the bar and was playing with her mobile phone, Ye Tian walked over and knocked on the bar, and said, "This beauty, make me a cup of Mocha, no sugar!" ”

Su Yanbing turned his head to look, showed a smile, and said, "Wait a minute, handsome guy, it'll be fine right away." After speaking, she said to Dong Lao Er: "What does this handsome guy want to drink?" ”

"Latte, thank you!" Dong Lao Er said softly, Su Yanbing nodded, and then turned around to make coffee.

Ye Tian and Dong Lao Er sat directly in front of the bar, and one of them took a magazine from the bookshelf next to him and flipped it up. Soon Su Yanbing brewed the coffee, the two took a sip of the cup, Ye Tian said very comfortably: "It's good to have a friend who opens a coffee shop, you can drink coffee casually when you want to, and it doesn't cost money, it's so cool." ”

Su Yanbing laughed and said, "Who said you don't need to spend money, did I say it's free?" For everyone's sake, I'll give you a 7% discount. Let's eat later, check out together! ”

"It's not kind! You invited me over for dinner, and I didn't bring a penny. Second, did you bring any money? Ye Tian looked at Dong Lao Er and said, Dong Lao Er understood and hurriedly said, "What is money?" What do you carry it for? ”

Su Yanbing shook his head and said, "You two are embarrassed, forget it, I won't take your money." Ye Lean, how have you played in recent games? ”

"It's okay, I've won two games in a row in the last game, and the situation is not bad." Ye Tian said lightly with his coffee, and Su Yanbing asked again: "I didn't go home until late every day after opening this store, and I haven't played CF for a long time." When I got home, I felt so tired that I fell asleep. ”

"Aren't you hiring someone in your store now? You can make it easier for yourself. Dong Lao Er looked at the two waiters who were still busy in the bar.

"No, they are all beginners, so they can only start with a little bit, and I still manage the finances myself." Su Yanbing shook his head and said.

Ye Tian smiled and said, "Are you at ease with me?" Why don't I take care of your money? ”

"Don't worry! You take care of the money, and it is estimated that all of it will be used to buy computer peripherals and CF props. Su Yanbing said with a smile, Ye Tian was speechless for a moment, and said: "I am a dignified professional player, the peripherals are sponsored by the club, and the CF props are also purchased by the club, so I don't need to spend money to buy them myself." ”

"Just kidding, you know you're a pro! Just because you are a professional player, where do you have time to help me manage the money, and you are not willing to give up your ideals. Besides, it's too big to let you be a cashier. Su Yan said softly.

"When I retire, it's all right! It's an honor to work with you! Ye Tian said with a smile on his face, working with Su Yanbing is definitely a very pleasing thing, as long as he sees her, he will be in a good mood every day.

"Good! I just don't know if my coffee shop will still be there when you retire, maybe one will go out of business at that time, and I will have to rely on you for relief! Su Yanbing said jokingly, Ye Qian smiled, and said, "That's impossible, your coffee shop is so good in business, it's impossible for it to go out of business." Maybe it will be a chain store by then! ”

"You're a good idea, why didn't I think of opening a chain store! Ye Tian, thank you for reminding me! Su Yanbing said a little excitedly.

"Ha Lu Ha...... I just said casually, our big boss's family is to open a chain restaurant, this is the brand effect, your brand is made, and the business of opening a chain store is still good. At that time, you only need to personally control a few stores, and you will open the other stores to join, and you can just sit at home and collect the franchise fee. ”

"You've painted a beautiful picture, and hopefully you'll be able to do what you said when the time comes." After Su Yanbing finished speaking, she looked at her watch and found that dinner time had actually passed, and the two coffee-drinking guys in front of her didn't say that she was hungry for the sake of face, so she hurriedly said: "You two go find an empty place to do it first, and I'll make you something delicious!" ”

"Good!" Ye Tian and Dong Lao Er took coffee and sat down on an empty seat in the corner. The position is made up of two fluffy free-standing sofas and a small round coffee table, surrounded by greenery, and the air feels fresh.
