Leaving the new base of the former team, on the way back, Wang Le took Sun Yifan to buy some food, and prepared to take it back to those who were still sleeping.

On the way back, Wang Le asked a little strangely: "Why don't you ask Li Qiming directly for resources, as long as he is willing to help you, in fact, your team will definitely continue to maintain." ”

Sun Yifan responded with a smile: "There's no need for that, that kind of team is not our team, this time I came to Li Qiming, just to find a way for my cousin and them." ”

After a pause, Sun Yifan thought of himself, his buddies, Wang Le beside him, and Xie Jiexin who was far away in Germany.

Everyone is no longer young, and they may still have that dream in their hearts, but the enthusiasm they had at the beginning is long gone.

Sun Yifan opened his mouth and said to Wang Le: "As for me? And those buddies of mine, in fact, it's like you and Xie Jiexin now. ”

"Our dreams are still in our hearts, but we no longer have the passion to realize our dreams, and our pursuit is no longer painful."

Wang Le understood what Sun Yifan meant, sighed and said, "Then you are willing to give up this team like this?" ”

Sun Yifan sighed, looked at the scenery outside the window, and said with a smile: "It's like for this city, I'm just a passerby after all." ”

"Maybe I have the heart to take my cousin and them into the professional arena for the sake of my dreams, but after all, my ability is limited, and the resources at hand are also limited."

Hearing Sun Yifan say this, Wang Le was actually a little lonely, and the two of them fell into silence next.

In fact, just like Sun Yifan said, he really doesn't have those resources available at hand.

By visiting Li Qiming's club today, you can see the importance of resources in today's e-sports circle.

There is no way to realize the so-called esports dream with passion alone, you must have more resources and a complete team operation to be able to establish a club and establish a foothold in the professional league.

There are a lot of talented people, but there are only so many team slots in the professional arena, and only five people from each team can take the field to compete.

Most people may try hard, but in the end, they will still be unknown, and they may not even have the opportunity to appear in the end.

Dreams are full, but the reality is often cruel, and it is not necessary to succeed if you have talent.

In the past, perhaps Sun Yifan still felt that through the efforts of him, his cousin and others, they could have that chance of success.

But this time when I came to Shanghai, I saw that the club of the past has become what it is today.

Sun Yifan knew very well in his heart that the gap between them and others was not just the gap between the team members.

This gap is more in terms of funds and resources, there is no large amount of money to invest in, and there is no large amount of resources available.

It's really a pipe dream to go all the way from the amateur division to today's professional league just by virtue of the so-called dream.

For Sun Yifan, he has the passion to pursue his dreams, but he does not have the resources and funds to support him.

Now helping his cousin experience a national race is the best he can do.

If you continue, you may be able to gain more and more, but you also need to pay more.

Sun Yifan doesn't know if he still has the ability to afford more, and whether he has the confidence to stick to that enthusiasm to do it.

It was already noon when I returned to the hotel, and I saw all kinds of food brought back by Sun Yifan and Wang Le.

Let the group of people who have just gotten up suddenly move their index fingers, one by one, like hungry wolves, gobbling up everything like a whirlwind.

In the afternoon, Wang Le drove everyone to the place of the competition.

Even though there are still a few days left in the game, there is always a need to visit the stadium and put the names of the teams on the table.

When I arrived at the venue, I found that there were already a lot of people at the scene, and many clubs had already lined up early.

Although it is an amateur competition, most of the clubs that participate in the competition are large and small.

It can only be said that these clubs are not really professional, and the players are not registered with the official side.

It can be seen that the large and small clubs that come to participate in the competition have a certain scale.

From the fact that they can wear the uniform of the team, it can be seen that the club's investment is not small.

And those team members, although they are not registered professional players, should have been professionally trained.

The national competition in front of them will be their first step on the professional stage.

Finishing in the top four in the national tournament gives you the opportunity to reach the minor professional league and fulfill the professional dreams of most of the players.

When Sun Yifan was queuing, he arrived at the team led by Bai Manjun.

The two sides were stunned for a moment when they met, then they looked at each other and smiled, and got together to wait in line for registration.

What embarrassed Sun Yifan and Bai Manjun was that a group of people didn't know whether they were intentional or unintentional, and actually let the two of them get together alone.

Such a sight can't help but make both of them a little embarrassed, looking at each other but not knowing what to say?

After a moment of silence, Sun Yifan spoke first: "I haven't thanked you before, and I am willing to let your team play a training match with us." ”

Bai Manjun was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, you have also helped us a lot." ”

After another period of silence, Bai Manjun spoke: "However, it seems that your buddies don't have the enthusiasm to play. ”

Sun Yifan smiled bitterly when he heard this, and then said: "After all, they have their own pursuits, and everyone's age is no longer suitable for playing professional e-sports." ”

Bai Manjun said coldly: "Hmph, you are clearly deserters, you used to use dreams to escape reality, and now you use reality to escape dreams, and you are always escaping men." ”

Sun Yifan didn't expect that Bai Manjun would have such a big reaction, and looked at Bai Manjun in surprise.

The latter continued: "Is it really impossible to fight? In fact, it still depends on whether you want to fight, no matter how old you are, your dreams can be realized. ”

Hearing this, Sun Yifan couldn't help but smile helplessly: "Yes, no matter how big the dream is, it can be realized, but after all, we have passed the golden age, our hand speed can no longer keep up, and we can't do many operations at all, so even if we want to work hard for our dreams, we can only do behind-the-scenes work." ”

Bai Manjun then said, "Since that's the case, then why don't you continue?" Because there is no money? ”

Without waiting for Sun Yifan to respond, Bai Manjun hurriedly said: "It seems that it is still for money, and dreams are measured by whether they make money or not in your eyes?" ”

Sun Yifan said helplessly: "However, they have families and businesses, and the people they need to support are not only their own." ”

At this time, it seemed that the queue had arrived to register, Bai Manjun stood up and said, "Sun Yifan, you should think about it, what are you pursuing, money is not the only criterion for measuring dreams." ”

After that, Bai Manjun went directly into the registration office, leaving Sun Yifan alone outside the door in a quiet daze.
