Chapter 561 Chapter 561: The transfer period is coming!
"Hey, hey, hey?"
Gu Xing greeted lazily.
Gui Jiao Qi, who was on the other end of the phone, said with a smile in his voice, "Stop feeding me. I can hear the smell of pig from a distance."
"You have been having a good time recently. I see that many fans on the Internet have taken photos of you at scenic spots..."
"If you have something to tell me," Gu Xing checked the time on his girlfriend's phone, "I have to go to the movies later."
His schedule was very full today. Since he was meeting with Casa and Peanut, he simply asked his parents to go to the Temple of Earth. The two daughters rushed over after class today and planned to watch the new remake of "Murder on the Orient Express" together.
After hearing this, Mingkai stopped chatting and went straight to the point, "I heard that Casa is coming to LPL?"
Gu Xing was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "You are quite well-informed!"
"That's right," Gui Jiao Qi's voice was slightly distorted through the receiver, but the pride in it could still be heard, "My news channels are not blocked!"
Mingkai has been famous for a long time. Relying on the close relationship between the team and AHQ and having many friends in the LMS division, he was able to grasp the information that Casa obtained the early access license agreement at the first time.
After thinking for a moment, he guessed that Casa's goal was the LPL.
After all, the LMS is a bunch of bugs, and there is no reason for Karsa to leave the unique and strongest king Flash Wolf to move within the region.
The LPL without communication barriers must be where Casa belongs next season!
Now Gu Xing's reaction also confirmed his judgment!
Zhuge Mingkai prides himself on being extremely smart and can find the truth from clues without any effort!
"Then, what does Casa's coming to LPL have to do with you?" Gu Xing put his hand on Shen Guanshan's waist and yawned out of boredom.
Gui Jiao Qi suddenly fell silent.
Gu Xing once wondered if there was something wrong with the mobile phone signal.
Just when he was about to repeat the question, he heard Ming Kai's pretending to be relaxed.
"EDG wants to get in touch with Casa."
"Ah?!" Gu Xing sat up from the chair as soon as he did sit-ups. His hands were not heavy for a moment and he squeezed his girlfriend's waist.
No fat, a little soft, and feels good in the hand.
Shen Guanshan, who was chatting and laughing with his sister-in-law, hissed lightly, probably feeling a little uncomfortable.
Gu Xing looked apologetically, rubbed his girlfriend's waist, and then turned his attention to Ming Kai.
"What do you mean, you plan to retire?"
He smelled the meaning behind Ming Kai.
Gui Jiao Qi responded quickly this time, "It's not like retiring, just... taking a break and planning to watch the water dispenser for a while."
Gu Xing understood.
If you think about it carefully, it makes sense for Ming Kai to want to quit.
The S6 World Championship played like shit. In the group stage, TSM sent them to second place in the group. Then, in the quarterfinals, they were beaten by Little Peanut forehand and backhand, causing EDG to be eliminated; S7 encountered a herbivorous jungle environment, and its own performance was okay. As a result, Guodian was turned into a team that could only play in the early and mid-term by Nofe. When it encountered a version that was late in operation, it was repeatedly overturned and still missed the good situation. The top eight were kicked out by Little Peanut!
Who can withstand it?
What's more, EDG has won the top eight in the World Championship for four consecutive years. Mingkai, who is not young himself, may have been tired because of his lackluster performance, so he decided to take a break.
"Then make good adjustments and come back soon," Gu Xing sent his sincere blessings, "Brother, I'm waiting for you!"
"I will introduce you to Casa later," he agreed, "but they may not come. It depends on how well you can negotiate."
"I understand, EDG will try its best to fight for it..." Mingkai expressed his attitude with confidence.
He believes that Guodian is very competitive.
First of all, it can barely be regarded as an e-sports giant. Except for VG in the LPL, there is no team that can stabilize EDG in terms of popularity and honor.
Being in the top eight every year is a pity for Mingkai, but it is simply the best blessing for some professional players!
Secondly, EDG has money.
The owner, Ed Zhu, has strong financial strength and is very passionate about e-sports. He has to play two league games even if he breaks a bone, and he is willing to spend money on the club.
In addition, the current overall lineup of Guodian is not expensive. Only Mingkai has a higher salary. The four top, middle and lower assistants were all newcomers on child labor contracts. Tian Ye's contract will expire at the end of the year, but the price will definitely not be expensive - after all He is an assistant, and Meiko suffered a serious illness in the S7 World Championship, so he won't be able to get much money.
EDG has enough space to provide salary space for new jungle players!
Ming Kai accepted Gu Xing's benefits and repaid him appropriately, "I'll treat you to a meal when I'm free someday."
"What are you going to do?" Gu Xing stretched out his Tathagata Palm with a look of disgust on his face, "You don't want to target me anymore, do you?"
Ming Kai sneered, "Put it down, we can offer you a good price, will you really come?"
In his opinion, Gu Xing will definitely not leave VG.
This is completely different from the situation when I left WE.
At that time, Mingkai was living in the shadow of Dabuliucha, and his popularity had not improved. Moreover, the performance of the entire team was declining. He couldn't understand how to play with a B assassin with a big nose. The players in the team were getting older, and he was still in the WE couldn't see any hope, so Mingkai decided to fight to the death.
VG now wants to achieve results, and the team as a whole is young. How can the absolute core of the Grand Slam leave at this time?
Therefore, Gui Jiao Qi didn't even think about inviting Gu Xing.
"I won't leave," Gu Xingshi gave another key piece of information, "but it's still possible for Little Peanut."
Ming Kai tasted the information revealed in the other party's words and felt unbelievable.
Although he is regarded as the idol of Little Peanut by the outside world.
But in fact, the relationship between the two is relatively ordinary, just an acquaintance.
It’s impossible for Little Peanut to say hello to him even if he comes to LPL.
After all, not many people knew that Mingkai wanted to see the water dispenser. At this time, the outside world felt that EDG had no shortage of junglers.
At this moment, when he heard the news that Peanut also wanted to leave the team to seek LPL job opportunities, Gui Jiao Qi immediately became energetic.
The big one is coming!
Whether it's Casa or Peanut, they will definitely be the big fish in this year's LPL transfer market!
"Xiao Gu, let's get in touch later. I have something to do..." Mingkai hurriedly said goodbye to Gu Xing, wanting to quickly go to Abu and Ed Zhu to discuss many matters regarding signings for the new season.
Gu Xing hung up the phone and muttered, "Ming Kai is a dishonest person. He just runs away after using others!"
"What happened?" Gu Pan asked curiously with his almond-shaped eyes open.
"Mingkai is going to take a back seat next year," Gu Xing sighed with emotion, "Things have changed and people have changed!"
"Just retreat," Gu Pan said indifferently, "A new generation is replacing the old. This day will come sooner or later."
Gu Xing sighed, "You will never understand what Mingkai means to me..."
"Youth?" Gu Pan said in a long tone, "Don't act awkward."
"No," Gu Xing objected with a sigh, "it's stable happiness!"
"If it weren't for Mingkai, how would I be able to score points from EDG without pressure in the future?"
Gu Pan was silent for a long time. He was usually very articulate, but now he was speechless.
"Hurry up and watch the movie," Shen Guanshan helped change the subject, "If you stay later, it will start soon!"
She is very interested in suspenseful movies, and this time Murder on the Orient Express is a remake of a classic detective novel, Shen Guanshan's expectations are high.
As a result, no matter how high your expectations are before entering the cinema, you will be disappointed when you come out.
"The filming of this movie is too bad," she complained dissatisfiedly. "Even the character settings can be changed. Wouldn't it be too disrespectful to the original work?"
Shen Guanshan was still complaining until the late night snack at the food stall.
Spending hundreds of dollars on tickets is a small thing.
The key is the time lost!
Gu Xing's schedule was already very full, and the offseason was short, so the time he could spend with her was even more limited.
Shen Guanshan also has to consider academic issues, and the two of them have few opportunities to meet and get along.
In the end, everyone was deceived by this movie!
"It's okay," Gu Xing smiled gently, "There is still a long future ahead."
Gu Pan grabbed the mutton skewers and put them in his mouth, feeling like he was devouring them.
"Eat slowly," Gu Xing couldn't stand it any longer. "No one is trying to fight you. Are you still at home?"
When I was a child, the conditions at home were not good. Except for certain chicken legs, pig's trotters, etc., the brother and sister had to fight for food.
Gu Pan rolled her eyes at him, "I'm in a hurry to get back to the dormitory, okay? The new function of E+ will be tested tomorrow, so I have to hurry up and go through the process to make sure there is no cat cake."
She finished the mutton skewers in three gulps, wiped her mouth and stood up.
"You are responsible for sending Guan Shan back, I will go back and work first..." She left the food stall in a hurry.
The two lovers were not in a hurry. They slowly cleaned up the remaining snacks and then walked leisurely to Peking University holding hands.
The distance is not too far, and you can get back smoothly with just one pair of legs.
The imperial capital has entered early winter mode recently. The temperature drops at night and the strong wind blows on the face like a razor blade.
Gu Xing watched his girlfriend zip up her white down jacket to the top, hiding her tall and slender body, jumping up and down like an emperor penguin, and couldn't help but purse her lips in joy.
Shen Guanshan didn't know why and looked over with a blank look on his face, "Why are you laughing?"
Gu Xing put his girlfriend's hand in his coat pocket and quietly changed the subject, "Can you feel what's inside?"
"I don't know, it's so hard..." Shen Guanshan didn't have the consciousness to be a driver, so he said ambiguous words that were thought-provoking, and took out a box from his boyfriend's pocket.
"What is this?" It was too dark and she couldn't see clearly.
"Open it and see if it's clear?" Gu Xing licked his lips that were slightly dry due to the cold wind.
A possibility emerged in Shen Guanshan's mind.
Her fingers gently opened the box, revealing its true contents, which confirmed her guess.
A pair of rings.
"Didn't you give me a painted mouse before the World Championships? I just wanted to give you something in return." Gu Xing rarely showed an unnatural expression. "After thinking about it, I feel that you don't lack anything. A ring seems to be the most suitable."
Shen Guanshan took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight, carefully looking at the couple's rings under the light.
"So beautiful!" She said excitedly, and inadvertently revealed her joy, "How much does it cost?"
Shen Guanshan has no research on luxury goods, but he still recognizes many brands, such as Cartier in front of him.
"Don't worry about the price," Gu Xing said nonchalantly, "Anyway, it's far from the point of causing me pain."
Shen Guanshan was relieved after hearing this. When his fingers rubbed the inner ring of the ring, he suddenly made a new discovery.
"Eh?" She tilted her head and observed the letters in the inner circle. After a moment of thought, she figured out the truth, "You also engraved our initials on it?"
"Yes, we can't engrave Chinese characters on this ring, so we have to do this," Gu Xing explained. "Originally, I wanted to engrave an English name, but the nickname you came up with when you were at Tencent was not serious, and I didn't dare to use it..." < br>
Shen Guanshan was overjoyed when he recalled Domori, the black and clever brand version of the flower name.
"It seems inappropriate for me to engrave my ID on it," Gu Xing looked into his girlfriend's clear eyes, "Virtue is Virtue, I am me."
"So in the end, let's carve the initials."
"It makes sense..." Shen Guanshan agreed with her boyfriend's statement and was about to put the ring on his finger.
"Let me go!" Gu Xing stopped her.
Shen Guanshan also realized that the process seemed not right, and quickly handed the ring to her boyfriend.
"Which finger is suitable to wear?" She didn't quite understand.
Gu Xing said the answer he had already thought of, "There are many opinions out there, and there is no unified standard, but I think most people still love wearing the middle finger."
Shen Guanshan's palms were frozen by the cold wind just now, but Gu Xing felt like he was holding a stove, feeling the heat flowing from his fingertips along the blood to every corner of his body.
Pushing the rose gold ring to the end of the slender knuckle, Mr. Gu let out a long sigh of relief.
Although I know that this thing has no real effect on stabilizing the relationship, it still seems to be a reassurance, as if the two of them have reached a certain agreement.
"Why are you so nervous?" Shen Guanshan smiled like a flower, "You are also responsible for the ring on your ring finger."
She also pushed the men's ring onto Gu Xing's middle finger, pulled her boyfriend's palm together with hers, and turned on her phone's camera to take a photo.
Given their height, their hands are not small, but they are short and close together, and they are very harmonious together.
Shen Guanshan was obviously very satisfied with the ring. He looked at the new ornament on his white finger repeatedly, grinning from ear to ear with joy.
"Okay, just send it here," she waved her hand, "When I get back to the dormitory, I'll send you the little surprise I've been researching these days on WeChat."
Gu Xing felt confused as he watched his girlfriend step into the school gate.
After returning to the hotel room and washing up, my girlfriend happened to send me a document and a video call popped up.
"What does this document do specifically?" Gu Xing couldn't understand.
"It's a small plug-in that I make in my spare time," Shen Guanshan simply explained, "an assistant related to LOL."
"There is a small program on the mobile phone. You can download it now. When you return to the base, download the PC plug-in to the computer." She turned on the computer in her dormitory and let Gu Xing see the screen remotely, "Then like what I am doing now , open the plug-in and the alliance client at the same time to achieve certain functions.”
"For example, this BP setting can help you achieve full automation after entering the forbidden selection phase," Shen Guanshan demonstrated, "I set it to give priority to Qian Jue, enter the training mode and let you take a look..."
< br>
She took her hands off the keyboard and mouse peripherals. In the training mode, the client interface automatically popped up Qian Jue's avatar and locked it down!
"If Kindred is robbed or banned, there are alternatives available here. If the replacement hero is adjusted to Lee Sin, the plug-in will select Li Sin after screening the BP situation to confirm that Kindred cannot be selected."
"This is so cool!" Gu Xing didn't understand computer technology, but that didn't stop him from imitating the tone of a Riot designer and giving his sincere praise, "It feels very novel, I've never seen this thing before!"
< br>
"Isn't it particularly difficult to do?"
Shen Guanshan was embarrassed by his praise, "No, it's actually quite simple. Even a non-CS major like me can figure it out after a while."
"In addition, there is a function that accepts matches by default. You don't have to manually click to accept when you are ranked for a match in the future. The plug-in can help you solve it," she continued. "This way you can realize your process from qualifying to player selection. Fully automatic mode! ”
Gu Xing had an open mind and immediately realized the usefulness of this function.
"So in the future, as soon as I get up or after eating, I can use the mobile phone plug-in to help me remotely start ranking and select heroes?"
“It saves time!”
The training time of professional players is inherently precious. Many work so hard that they only sleep five or six hours a day, and then play ranked matches when they wake up.
The free spaces are squeezed out.
Gu Xing feels that this plug-in is a magical tool for him!
There is no need to turn off the computer in the training room. The client and widgets are always open. When you get up every day and brush your teeth and wash your face, you can operate the computer downstairs from your mobile phone to start queuing. By default, you will accept the game + automatic BP. After you have solved everything, you can arrive at the training room. , you can directly enter the canyon to travel!
You can also play like this while eating, and you can save half an hour every day by talking less!
One year alone can free up hundreds of hours of training, which is extremely precious in Gu Xing's opinion!
"As long as it's useful to you," Shen Guanshan held his chin with his hands, "When I first started doing it, I was afraid that you would think it was too useless."
Gu Xing's imagination was wide open, "By the way, Guan Shan, your automatic hero selection function can be adjusted to a second lock, right?"
"Yes," Shen Guanshan was surprised by her boyfriend's focus, "and computers must have better processing power than humans. As long as the computer's normal network speed does not lag, the second lock speed will be faster than that of players."
"There should be a lot of players in the Chinese server who like this plug-in," Gu Xing complained. "They set it to lock Yasuo in seconds. If you enter a match, you can get the upper hand and be happy until death!"
Shen Guanshan admired her boyfriend's unique idea, "It's amazing!"
Gu Xing put his hands on his hips and sneered, "How about it, am I much better than Gu Mufen? Her mind, which is only focused on making money, has not thought of my way to cash in!"
But Shen Guanshan's next words extinguished his pride.
"Gu Pan has thought of this a long time ago, but this feature cannot be promoted on a large scale or commercialized, otherwise Riot Games will definitely come looking for it," Shen Guanshan explained in detail, "The plug-ins used are all officially opened by Riot. As long as the released API interface does not affect the balance of the game or violate commercial purposes, they will not interfere, but using this function to monetize is purely overthinking.”
"I see..." Gu Xing thought that his business acumen was outstanding, but he didn't expect that Fist was smarter and had blocked this road early.
Come to think of it, how did the box die?
The body is not even cold enough!
"In addition to automatically starting the game, I also introduced OP.GG's data rankings - similar to Riot, they also opened an interface. After you select the hero, the plug-in can pop up the advantages and disadvantages of the three lanes of the match and their options. Install the template..." Shen Guanshan said.
"Considering that you usually play a lot of ranked games and have a relatively high rank, players in this segment basically have their own understanding. The restraint relationship in the conventional sense is not applicable to you, so I set the data collection range as the default It can still be of some reference value to you if it reaches diamond level one or above.”
Gu Xing was amazed that the functions of the plug-in were beyond imagination.
"Nike Guanshan is so awesome!" He praised without concealment, "She has a good brain and is much better than me in this aspect!"
Shen Guanshan's cheeks turned red, "You have specialization in the art, so your alliance level is better than mine..."
The EDG base on Lingshi Road in Shanghai was brightly lit while the two were chatting with each other.
All team members have taken a break.
Except Mingkai.
He was in Edju's office discussing with Abramovich about signings for the coming year.
Although the transfer period will only start in two weeks, various clubs have already begun to consider reinforcement or sales plans in advance.
There is a reason why Mingkai and Abu are so positive.
They have shares.
This was the share promised by Ed Zhu after the fish was dead and the net was broken.
Even if it's not a lot, EDG has a big business, so it's worth a lot of money.
After being tied to a boat, he was naturally very interested in the team!
Ed Zhu stared at the list, "Little Peanut, do you want to come to LPL? I will contact someone tomorrow and invite Casa to come and talk."
"But spending big money requires results, otherwise you might as well raise new people!"
He originally wanted Little Bear to show his hands, but considering that Ming Kai was sitting opposite, he canceled the skill casting.
"It will definitely cost money," Mingkai vowed. "Although the jungler named Haro that Abu originally found is also good, there is no comparison with Casa Peanut!"
"Can you imagine how powerful these two world-class junglers would be when paired with Scout?" he said in an exaggerated tone.
Ed Zhu trusted Ming Kai's judgment on Big Daddy's strength and turned to look at Abu, "If Mouse leaves, is there no room for recovery?"
"That's right," Abramovich nodded, "We have to find a domestic top laner... If we make up our mind to introduce strong support in the jungle position, the two foreign aid quotas will be filled."
< br>
Edouard frowned.
The jungler spent money, and the top laner had to make corresponding reinforcements.
But nowadays, the strong domestic orders are either not for sale, or the price is too high...
He was deep in thought.
The window period left for him before the transfer period starts is not generous. He must race against time to determine the signing target and prepare a transaction layout!
In comparison, Gu Xing's life has been much easier recently.
Without any pressure, he traveled around and relaxed for a while.
It wasn't until the early morning of November 22, when the transfer period opened, that Gu Xing felt the shock.
The 1+1 contract has long been discovered by major clubs, and the management of these teams is not as sure as Mingkai that Gu Xing will not leave VG.
With the mentality of trying to quote a price without losing anything, they extended an olive branch to Gu Xing as soon as possible.
Suning raised the price to more than 2kw when they first came up. As an upstart who only entered the league this year, they have sufficient budget in the sports department and can offer huge contracts.
But the most outrageous one has to be JDG.
28 million pre-tax income is unconditionally guaranteed, and the live broadcast income can also be held in Gu Xing’s own hands!
This quotation was a huge blow to Gu Xing!
After Uzi's comeback, his level of sudden death was even worse than before. I didn't expect that Popo would be the first to die in a team battle. PS: Damn bin! Jax Crocodile is so ruthless. Today he was directly defeated by Zika, the king of warriors!
