At the beginning, Sun Yifan chose to resign and leave the company because of a falling out with the company's boss.

I met Xie Jiexin by chance playing games in an Internet café, and was pulled into the club at that time by Xie Jiexin.

At that time, it was said that it was a team and a club, but in fact the conditions were very poor, far from being as tall as the so-called clubs now, and even inferior to private Internet café clubs.

At that time, the club was a group of game-loving partners, which was formed in the form of a game union.

To put it bluntly, it is a group of people playing a game together, fighting a game together, creating a union in the game, and everyone playing together.

At that time, World of Warcraft was very popular in China, and at the same time, World of Warcraft gold coins became a very lucrative industry.

As a result, relying on gold coins and gold coins in the game has also supported many unions to make some transformations to today's clubs.

At that time, Li Qiming and Xie Jiexin came together in this way, and they were partners of a pvp union in World of Warcraft.

Later, World of Warcraft introduced the Arena, and there were dueling matches in the Arena, which led them to try to transform.

At that time, because of the problem that the version was out of sync, in fact, Sun Yifan only knew after he entered the club that Xie Jie was playing foreign clothes at that time.

At that time, many old trade unions in the domestic World of Warcraft switched to foreign servers in order to compete for the version of the world's first kill.

In fact, at that time, the arena competition was already beginning to take shape, but not many people paid attention to it at that time.

After all, the arena did not form a large scale before, and the backwardness of the server version after that also led to the inability of the country to participate in it.

Over time, although at that time, competitive competitions had begun to rise abroad and gained the popularity of some esports enthusiasts.

Even, in professional e-sports competitions, there are already Warcraft Arena games, but not many people actually pay attention to them in China.

It was in this context that Sun Yifan joined the game union at that time with Xie Jiexin.

Because there was a tournament in an arena abroad at that time, although the prize money at that time was not as high as it is now, the prize money was also very considerable.

And Xie Jie was worried about their team, which originally focused on the 3v3 arena, but one of his teammates couldn't stand it and chose to leave.

As a result, Xie Jiexin had no choice but to transform into 2v2 at that time, trying to try to get some opportunities on 2v2.

But at that time, the combination of mages and priests of Xie Jiexin and Wang Le was really not a good combination in the 2v2 arena.

So in the training matches, they didn't perform well, so they gradually started to lose some confidence.

Fortunately, Li Qiming liked the game World of Warcraft very much at that time, and his family was very wealthy, and with his support, the game union at that time still supported it.

In addition, at that time, the income from playing gold coins could be regarded as being able to make up for the daily expenses of some clubs, including giving everyone salaries and so on.

When Sun Yifan said this, he couldn't help but sigh: "In that era, although everyone didn't make much money, everyone didn't value money, and everyone had only one thought, that is, to do a good job in the trade union, to compete for glory for our country in international competitions, so that China can also make a name for itself in the field of e-sports, just like the original Warcraft, D, StarCraft." ”

Hearing Sun Yifan's words, everyone's blood boiled instantly, and they could deeply feel the hard work of that era.

In the case of not being recognized, it was Sun Yifan, a group of pioneers, who made the reputation of Chinese e-sports with an indomitable spirit.

It can be regarded as laying a solid foundation for Chinese e-sports, so that future generations can build today's high-rise buildings on a solid foundation.

Perhaps later e-sports people don't know their names, but their contributions are indelible at any time.

After Xie Jiexin pulled Sun Yifan to join, he was able to form a 3v3 arena team again.

So at that time, Li Qiming specially bought a foreign service account for Sun Yifan, and used the money from the trade union to help Sun Yifan get a battlefield suit.

After that, Sun Yifan, Xie Jiexin and Wang Le formed a combination of "knights, mages, and priests" and began to practice day and night.

Everyone worked very hard, and in order to be able to play a good arena, they almost kept changing their majors.

Prepare all kinds of props that are suitable for use in the arena, and try again and again to make the best of them.

After some hard work, Sun Yifan and the others finally succeeded in breaking out of the encirclement and qualified for the Arena World Championship held abroad at that time.

Hearing this, Zhang Wuyi and Yue Qingsong were excited, and their eyes even burst into tears.

You must know that once they and Sun Yifan also qualified for the Arena World Championship.

It's a pity that at that time, due to their own reasons, they could only choose to give up the opportunity to compete abroad.

After many years, Sun Yifan finally realized this dream, and he successfully advanced to the world stage.

I got the opportunity to compete on the international stage and set sail with my dream.

Speaking of the experience of going abroad, Sun Yifan couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, do you know? When we first arrived there, we didn't find the right person because of the language barrier, so we couldn't find the address of the venue until late at night. ”

Sun Yifan's words were a joke, mentioning the original troubles, but no one could laugh.

From Sun Yifan's words, everyone can hear that their conditions were actually very difficult at the beginning.

Immediately afterwards, Sun Yifan continued: "At that time, it was the first time we went abroad, and we couldn't eat the food arranged by the other party, and we really couldn't eat a bite of that taste. ”

"There was no way, almost all of us were hungry on the first day because we didn't have the money to buy anything else."

"Moreover, we don't understand the language, and we don't know how to buy other things, so we don't dare to walk around casually."

"Almost all day, we stayed in the room arranged by the event team, except that the other party asked us to train, and almost did not step out of the room."

Speaking of this, Sun Yifan couldn't help laughing again: "Do you know? In fact, the hotel we were staying in at the time, the things in it could be eaten as you like, and there was no need to pay again, but we didn't know that in the days of the game, we didn't touch anything in the same room except for eating the food of the event party. ”

"Hahaha......" Sun Yifan had already laughed on his back, but the other people present, especially Zhang Wuyi and Yue Qingsong, could hear the bitterness.
