Chapter 160: Is the Fire in My Heart Extinguished (Part 1)

Generally, the content of the daily Weibo posted by VYG's official blog is basically related to Ning Yuan.

For example, what is the dinner at the club today, or the daily training of the players, and so on, photo albums like this will give him most of the close-ups.

There are also those sponsors' advertisements, all of which he participates in.

Everyone knows what the reason is.

Because as long as there are keywords in it, there will be a lot of comments, likes and retweets at the bottom.

And this is all due to Ning Yuan's own popularity.

For the club's "heat" operations, everyone chose to turn a blind eye, after all, Ning Yuan also belongs to their employees, and after signing the contract, it is understandable that other companies want to make money.

Besides, in fact, fans are also very happy to see these things posted by the official blog, because they can learn about Ning Yuan's life through this way and know how he usually lives, so it's also good.

You send it, I love to watch it, it's a win-win situation.

However, these days, the club has posted less and less Weibo related to Ning Yuan, and even at the end of the month, he is no longer in the text and pictures.

Perhaps, it can also be said that he is not at the base because of his vacation, which seems to make sense.

But the most puzzling thing is that netizens kept leaving messages on Weibo asking about Ning Yuan's situation, and the club didn't even reply to a word!

In the past, no matter what netizens asked, the official blog would actively give a reply, which was very active, in order to maintain Ning Yuan's popularity and arouse the interest of the big guys.

Can ...... now

For a while, there were different opinions on the Internet, and people began to make all kinds of speculations about it.

After unanimous determination, everyone thinks that the most likely statement is that they would rather stay away from the team.

If this is the case, then the current abrupt situation can be fully explained.

Of course, this is just speculation and has not yet been confirmed by anything.

So, fans continued to come to the official blog to ask for specific details, but no matter how netizens put pressure, the VYG club still did not make any response, and did not even reveal a word to the outside world.

There's no way, the only way left is to ask the main owner, but this b can't be broadcast......

So, now there is such an endless loop.

In this situation, for those e-sports self-media and media, it is their turn to show their talents.

The editors of all walks of life began to play with the topic and wrote all kinds of strange reports, all kinds of things, regardless of whether they were made up or not, whether they were reasonable or not, anyway, as long as they could attract the attention of the audience, it would be OK if there was traffic.

Then after many days of agitation from all sides, the Internet became impetuous.

Once people's curiosity is aroused, it is really out of control, and they are more and more eager to know about Ning Yuan's movements......

......

......

When there was a lot of commotion outside, the parties concerned were quite calm about it, and they turned a deaf ear and turned a blind eye to it.

In fact, he has been busy with some of his own affairs recently, and he has not had the time to take care of this.

That night, it was late.

There are two small lights on in the house and the light is kept to a minimum.

Ning Yuan lay on his back on the sofa and closed his eyes to recuperate, unable to sleep, still thinking about things in his head.

In the past few days, he has been really tired, and he has been talking to others about things and meeting every day, and his mobile phone is ringing non-stop.

At the beginning, Ning Yuan was a free man, and the team that joined halfway was not in the VYG Spring Tournament list.

At the end of April, his contract with VYG will officially expire.

In other words, according to the official rules of the league, in the next transfer period, he will be reinstated as a free agent and can return to the free agent market.

The reason why the VYG club has made these moves during this period is also very simple.

That's right, as some people guessed.

A few days ago, Ning Yuan had expressed his intention to withdraw from the team to the management, and he would not renew his contract with them in the summer game.

Of course, it immediately caused a huge sensation in the VY club, so they have been in a mess in recent days, how can they have the leisure to reply to outsiders?

Subsequently, VYG's managers and management, and even the big boss behind it, called in person and tried their best to retain them.

Generous conditions were offered, such as increasing the signing fee and salary, and a promise was made to meet all of Ning Yuan's requirements as much as possible.

However, Ning Yuan's attitude was very resolute.

Tried hard to persuade him, but to no avail.

In the end, he was helpless and couldn't restrain him, so he could only let him go......

Thinking of this, Ning Yuan opened his eyes, smiled silently, and shook his head with emotion.

On the day when he moved things in the base, Vyg's teammates were still holding him, and their regret and reluctance could be seen from their expressions and words.

Since I officially joined the team in March, it has only been more than a month now, although it is not a long time, but I get along with them day and night every day.

Usually in the training room, they joke with each other when chatting, and from time to time they open black in a double row, and they play training matches together to practice and cooperate, and after the end, they discuss and study game-related things, and they get along very harmoniously.

On the field, the five of them worked together to fight.

People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless?

Speaking from the bottom of his heart, Ning Yuan was also very reluctant to them.

However, in the end, he chose to leave.

Because, he has his own goals that he wants to achieve.

I stayed away from the professional circle for three whole years, but deep down I never gave up.

And now he is back in the professional arena just to continue the pursuit.

Once the direction is set, he will not waver easily.

Now that this first step has been taken, there must be no further stop!

In the dim light, his eyes were exceptionally bright in the dimly lit room.

Take out your phone and click on WeChat......

......

......

At noon, a coffee shop.

"Yes, Brother Cheng, you can enjoy life very well."

Ning Yuan looked around at the exquisite European-style decoration around him, and praised him: "Stylish, tasteful!" ”

"Pull it down." Yan Cheng waved his hand, "I usually have nothing to do, so why don't I find a place to drink coffee or something, it's boring." ”

"Elegant! Plus it's single again......"

Ning Yuan smiled at him: "You are a single nobleman, right?" ”

“...... Almost. Yan Cheng couldn't refute it.

Last night, Ning Yuan sent a few messages, asking him to come out and talk about something.

So, he took Ning Yuan to the coffee shop he often came to.

I sat in the far corner of the store and waited, and after a while, the waiter came with coffee.

A cup of regular Americano, a cup of cappuccino.

Yan Cheng is the former, and the latter is Ning Yuan's.

Then, I saw that Yan Cheng didn't add anything, stirred it slightly, picked it up and blew it, and drank it directly.

"Uh...... Isn't it bitter? Ning Yuan was curious.

"Okay...... I don't like to add sugar when I drink coffee. Yan Cheng said.

"Awesome." Ning Yuan said.

He usually comes out for coffee, either a cappuccino, a latte, or a mocha.

But no matter what type it is, a lot of sugar will be put down.

Some people may think that adding too much sugar is a bit unclassy and not upscale enough, but Ning Yuan thinks that as long as it suits his taste, it will be fine.

Some people like sweet, others like that bitter taste, it's just a personal hobby.

It's like he listens to both classical music and electronic music, and he doesn't think there's any difference, what sounds good is what sounds good, no matter what is high or low.

People are already so tired of life, if you have to care about other people's opinions when listening to music and drinking coffee, and can't follow your own heart, then what's the point?

"Let's get down to business." Yan Cheng put the cup down and said to him.

"Hmm."

Ning Yuan nodded.

Then, he told Yan Cheng carefully and carefully about the things related to him these days, from beginning to end.

In fact, these days, the two have been chatting on their mobile phones.

Through WeChat, Ning Yuan also told Yan Cheng about his recent thoughts and trends......

"Yes, have you already decided to change teams?"

Yan Cheng bowed slightly: "Okay, since you have thought everything through, then of course I will do my best to support you." ”

Ning Yuan's eyes lit up: "Really? ”

"So what's not? If I don't support you, who else can I support? Yan Cheng smiled and asked again, "What about the team over there?" Have you talked to them? ”

"Almost."

Ning Yuan nodded and said: "I've been talking to them about the contract these days, and it's basically been finalized, and I plan to sign the contract with them in two days...... But ......."

Halfway through his words, he paused, then calmly took a sip of his coffee.

"But what? Hurry up! Yan Cheng urged, "Don't sell Guanzi! ”

Ning Yuan smiled: "It's nothing, there are still some key problems that have not been solved." ”

"What's the problem?" Yan Cheng asked him.

Ning Yuan took a spoon and stirred the coffee, took another big sip, and then pulled out a tissue to wipe his mouth.

Look straight at the other side and put away the joke.

"Brother Cheng, you just said that you want to fully support me, right?"

Ning Yuan did not directly answer Yan Cheng's question.

From his face, he showed unprecedented seriousness and seriousness.

"yes, what's wrong?" Yan Cheng nodded.

"Okay, then do me a favor."

Ning Yuan lifted his weight lightly, and said casually: "My team is still short of people, you can come and play the middle single." ”

“......”

Yan Cheng listened, his pupils dilated, his heart seemed to be hammered hard, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak!

Half an hour later.

"You...... Are you kidding me? Yan Cheng tried his best to stay calm.

Ning Yuan looked at him, his eyes motionless: "You think I'm joking?" ”

“...... It's hard not to feel. ”

Yan Cheng shook his head and leaned back in his chair.

"Leaving me, staying at home for so long, is there something wrong with you? It's time to get moving. ”

Ning Yuan pointed his finger at the table: "How about it, let's do it together?" ”

"It's not...... I didn't quite understand. ”

Yan Cheng felt a little funny: "If you say that the team lacks a coach or analyst, and then come and invite me, then I can really consider going there...... But you're asking me to play the next game? ...... Tell me, what do you think? ”

"Before you became a coach, you were a pro." Ning Yuan took it for granted, "In the past, the captain of ME, the top midlaner of the LPL, has entered the world championship three times, where is it not suitable?" ”

"And then, won the quarterfinals three times?" Yan Cheng laughed to himself.

"What's the matter, I haven't even been to the Worlds yet." Ning Yuan said lightly, "So, the team needs your experience." ”

"Don't do it, how long ago was that?" Yan Cheng shook his head, "I've been retired for more than four years......"

Ning Yuan spread his hands: "Didn't I also retire for three years, and only come back now?" ”

"That's different."

"How is it different?"

"I can't fight for a long time, and you can still fight."

"If you can't be impressed, how can you know if you don't fight? ...... In other words, the top of the world grandmaster has 600 points, no matter which team he goes to, it's no problem, right? ”

“......”

Yan Cheng was speechless.

At present, most clubs in the LPL are eligible to go to trial training as long as they can reach the Hanbok or the top of the world.

A grandmaster with 600 points, that's not to mention.

The state has always been good, and in terms of rank, it is even better than a large number of professional players.

From the point of view of rank alone, it is more than enough.

But......

"Ah Yuan, you must know that I am already 26 years old......"

Yan Cheng rubbed his temples and sighed, he didn't want to repeat the rest of the words.

Most of the people currently playing in the league are teenagers in their tens, sevens and eights.

People like Ning Yuan, who are about 22 years old, are already veterans.

is different from others, the e-sports industry eats like that bowl of youth.

No one can always stay at the top of the level, as you get older, whether it is reaction, operation, awareness, etc., these will gradually decline, most of the time the competitive state is not as good as year after year.

Yan Cheng, who was 19 or 20 years old, was indeed one of the top mid players in the league.

But his time does not stand still.

Do you want him to compete with those young freshmen?

Is the sunset at the end of the curtain comparable to the rising sun?

"Brother Cheng, let me ask you a question first."

Ning Yuan's sudden voice interrupted his thoughts.

"You were a coach in ME and you stood behind the players when you were BP...... Was there a moment when you thought you were going to go up and fight? ”

“......”

"Don't say anything against your will, tell me what you really think."

Ha~~~~~~

Yan Cheng let out a deep breath and stretched out his right hand to rub his temples.

He...... Can't deny it.

His players played on the field, and from time to time they would make some low-level mistakes, and little by little, the situation gradually got out of control and finally collapsed.

Most of the time their team loses games like this.

And Yan Cheng, as a coach, was watching from below, and he was really anxious.

But there is nothing that can be done, nothing can be done.

As Ning Yuan said, every time at this time, he couldn't wait to go up and replace them in person to save the situation for them......

Seeing that Yan Cheng was silent, Ning Yuan grinned slightly.

"Age, I don't think it's an issue...... The key is, Brother Cheng, has the fire in your heart as a professional player been extinguished? ”

"My regiment is still burning...... So, I went back again. ”
