[Ming Lian]: "Bro, wanna play professionally?"
Seeing this message, Xu Cheng, who was about to log out of the game, froze.
Then.
Bad memories flooded back like a tide--
It was about a month ago, shortly after he started playing LOL. After reaching King rank, he received an invitation from a so-called club.
At the time, Xu Cheng was naive and ignorant, a young man eager for recognition, and felt a little happy to be acknowledged.
The youth training manager of the so-called inviting club also patted his chest confidently, painting a grand picture for the young and ignorant Xu Cheng...
Then...
He typed out that message--
[V me 5000 first, to pay the deposit.]
His dream shattered.
Xu Cheng stared at the message, and it felt like he was seeing that fat, greasy face he had never seen before...
After a long while, with a sense of sacredness, he typed out a message with great ceremony--
[V me 5000, to pay the deposit first.]
"Huh?"
Ming Kai was stunned.
Xu Cheng's ID had already gone gray.
"Holy crap... I'm not a scammer!"
Sai Wen, the ancestor, realized what had happened and immediately panicked!
[Hahaha]
[V me 5000 is too awesome...]
[Data Monster is too much, first time seeing someone say that to Factory Director.]
[Doesn't he know he's talking to LPL001?]
[Data Monster! The god of trolling!]
The barrage of comments in the livestream chat snapped Factory Director back to reality, and he decisively sent a friend request to Xu Cheng.
He logged out of the game at lightning speed.
He didn't even hear Xi Ye and Ah Shui calling out to him--
Joking aside, how could he poach someone in front of so many people?
Did he, Zhuge Kaiming, spend all these years for nothing?
As for the little Data Monster...
Zhuge Kaiming, who had been devising brilliant strategies to pacify the world and had been famous in the LPL for years, couldn't handle him?
Seeing the friend request accepted, Factory Director immediately perked up, put aside his thoughts, and quickly sent a message:
[I'm really not a scammer]
The other side seemed busy with something else and replied after a long time: [How can you prove it?]
"Uh..."
Factory Director was a bit dumbfounded.
He... Clearlove... soon to be joined by Sai Wen's LPL001, one of the icons, and he still needed to prove he wasn't a scammer?
Doesn't the other party recognize his ID?!
[Bro, I'm really Clearlove, look at my ID, believe me!]
[?]
[Clearlove? Who is Clearlove?]
Pfft!
Factory Director spat out his drink, completely bewildered.
Even the piglets in the livestream chat, as well as Xi Ye and Ah Shui, who had been secretly peeking out of curiosity, were all stunned.
"Holy crap, who is Clearlove? I saw him before and it seemed like he didn't know Ah Shui... Does he really not know or is he pretending?"
"Do you even need to ask? He's definitely pretending. Forget Ah Shui, who plays LOL and doesn't know Factory Director?"
"Although... I really like how arrogant he is..."
[So bold!!]
[Too bold!]
[I'm shocked, Data Monster isn't joking, right? He doesn't even know who Factory Director is?!]
[Who is Clearlove? This sentence will become an annual classic this year!]
[Quickly apply for UNESCO World Heritage status, and enter the dictionary at light speed!]
[No, brother, I am me, I...]
Factory Director typed this sentence, then suddenly realized that he couldn't prove that he was himself!
No...
The problem now wasn't whether he could prove it, but that the other side didn't seem to recognize him...
Was he faking it?
Like many people, Factory Director had this thought in an instant.
It couldn't be helped. S6 had already ended. Not to mention anything else, Factory Director was "world-famous" in S6. Even those who didn't play LOL would spray him with 4396, saying he disgraced Chinese esports. How could the other side, such a strong, unknown king, not know him?
[How about this, I'll add you on WeChat, and we can video call. What do you say?]
[No.]
[I... Where are you now? I'll come find you!]
Factory Director was desperate.
Damn it, he didn't believe the other side would be so stubborn!
As expected, this time, Xu Cheng didn't refuse. He thought for a moment and said:
[Uncle, I'm at machine number 4396.]
??????
Factory Director's pupils contracted sharply.
"Pfft hahaha...!"
Ah Shui, who had been watching the screen the whole time, saw the number and immediately lost it, collapsing in laughter!
The others were also gritting their teeth, puffing out their cheeks, trying desperately to hold it in!
It wasn't their fault, 4396 was the hottest meme recently.
The other side saying this directly in front of Factory Director was like a face-hugger attack, a full-on assault.
The comedic effect was no less than being cuckolded to your face...
And...
What was with calling himself "Uncle"?
Was he automatically upgrading his seniority?
[Ah, sorry, I pressed the wrong key. I'm at 4396, 4396. Hurry up and come find me.]
[Shit!!!]
[What's wrong with you? Why are you cursing?]
[Cursing, huh? Fine, I'm blocking you.]
???
Factory Director stared dumbfounded as he was blocked by the other side, completely thrown into disarray.
He had been a professional player for so many years, and this was the first time he encountered such an absurd situation--
Was this a person?
No, this was an idiot!
On the other side, Xu Cheng started another match and then leisurely got up and headed to school.
He checked the time on the way. His first match of the day had run a bit long, and it was getting late.
Fortunately, he had always been a person who planned ahead and had already set aside ten minutes.
"It should be just right."
Xu Cheng muttered, then thought about his first match today--
The quality was undeniable.
It was much higher than he had imagined. Based on his understanding of strength, this match was at least comparable to a King-tier ranked game.
Of course, it definitely couldn't compare to the very top players. It was probably just a tiny bit higher than the King-tier games he had played a few times before.
Just a tiny bit. Looking at that Riven today, who was so dumb she didn't even care about kills, it couldn't be much more.
"I can't imagine how strong the players who have been in the top ten of the national server for years, and the professional players, actually are..."
He sighed, his eyes filled with longing, his heart surging with excitement!
Meanwhile.
What Xu Cheng didn't know was that the idols he held in the highest regard, sacred and inviolable in his heart, the top players, were all currently looking like they'd just eaten shit.
Xu Cheng had become famous.
No, to be precise, the match tonight had become famous.
This was actually something that could have been foreseen.
With the official team making such a big move, even inviting the two top stars, Pig and Dog, and "mobilizing" the matching enthusiasm of players nationwide, it would have been hard for it not to become famous.
The problem was, today's event had become famous a bit beyond expectations!
And the protagonists in everyone's minds, the Factory Director, Little Dog, Ah Shui, and the others, had all unexpectedly become supporting characters.
[Bro! We're rich!]
This ID, extremely unfamiliar and even a bit comical to the esports circle and all online viewers, had now become the hottest name tonight!
With the covert push from countless marketing accounts and the official team, a towering image of an arrogant, peerless super-genius who could punch the Factory Director, kick Zaizi, and carry Xiao Hu and Xi Ye in his hands—
Made a dazzling debut!
