Volume 1: An Era Chapter 13 Meeting
"Boss Pei, Brother Feng."
Seeing the two people in the lounge, Li Nian took the initiative to say hello.
Pei Le appeared once when he signed the contract. As for Li Xiaofeng, Li Nian was not unfamiliar to him. As the number one in domestic e-sports, Li Nian had seen Li Xiaofeng's photos in major encyclopedias a long time ago.
Pei Le looked Li Nian up and down. Having been in the business world for a long time, he already had an intuition about judging people.
It was this intuition that told Pei Le that Li Nian's temperament was very different from that of ordinary professional players.
Especially the look in her eyes, Li Nian's eyes... gave Pei Le a very strange feeling, and Pei Le couldn't describe what the feeling was at the moment.
"I heard Wei Xiao say before that you have a way to get WE into the World Championship?"
Li Xiaofeng stared at Li Nian and asked with interest.
"have."
"Then... let's go back and discuss it in detail. If it really works, President Pei and I will fully support you."
Li Xiaofeng waited for a few seconds but nothing came of it. He looked around the lounge and vaguely understood something . He nodded slightly and said.
…
The match between WE and EDG ended in a 1-1 draw.
The 60Es were all delighted. As a surprise soldier who suddenly appeared on the field and performed very well, Li Nian naturally attracted the attention of countless people in the circle.
Although he only played one game, Li Nian's popularity is rising at a visible rate, and the forums are full of discussions about him.
"I've always felt that WE just lacked a good jungler. Now that the jungler is here, I feel like I can dream again."
"When the head coach was preparing for warm-up, I had a feeling that this guy was extraordinary. Wow, he really is extraordinary."
"The Traitors were stunned. WE is awesome!"
"I just found Mr. Nian's information. He is 24 years old this year. Why haven't I seen him before if he is so strong?"
"Maybe I've always been a substitute..."
"What do you call this? It takes ten years to sharpen a sword!"
"Hey, you're clearly a late bloomer!"
"Don't brag after just one game. If you have the ability, you should make it to the World Championship. WE played 4 BO2s with EDG this year, 3 of which ended in 1-1 and one ended in 0-2. I don't know what there is to brag about."
…
There were many different opinions in the Tieba forum.
At this time, the League of Legends division of the WE team was holding a meeting.
This is a crucial meeting that determines whether WE can go further this season.
According to Li Nian's request, in addition to himself, the four starting players who had played together before were also present.
"Tell me, which team is the player you want to rent from?"
Pei Le sat in the boss chair, took a sip of tea, and spoke leisurely.
"He is a player in the LSPL A League."
Li Nian said bluntly.
"LSPL?"
Li Xiaofeng was stunned.
The rest of WE's players were also a little surprised.
They really didn't expect that Li Nian's goal was to go to the A-League.
But soon, Li Xiaofeng frowned and said, "It's true that there are strong players in the A-level league, but forgive me for being frank, being strong and performing well are two different things. Just like WEA and IGY, the strength they showed in the A-level league is at the dominant level, and the individual strength of the players is also quite outstanding."
"But look at WEA. They faced EDG in their first game after entering LPL and got beaten. They haven't recovered yet."
"So I personally think that it doesn't matter if a player's strength is a little bit worse. The key is how well the player can display his strength in the game. From what I've observed, apart from some veteran professional players, there are almost no players in the LPL who shine in their first game... Well, except for you."
Li Xiaofeng paused at the end and spoke.
Li Nian smiled and said, "Don't worry, the player I found has absolutely no problem with his mentality, and he is the type who dares to fight and fight."
"Which team?"
Smile interrupted.
Li Nian glanced at him, the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "King team, their jungler is mlxg."
If Li Nian remembers correctly, LSPL should have entered the off-season by now, and is only waiting for the promotion and relegation matches at the end of the year. There is no problem with the timing at all, it just depends on whether WE can negotiate it.
"mlxg..."
Li Xiaofeng's frown relaxed.
He didn't know much about LSPL, but Li Xiaofeng .
It is no exaggeration to say that the King team can perform very well in the lspl, and the jungler mlxg is the absolute core of this team.
He plays aggressively, a standard carnivorous jungler.
Of course, mlxg's shortcomings are also obvious at this time. One is that if the three axes in the early stage fail to catch anyone, then mlxg's rhythm will disappear by more than half, and the voice on the map will also become smaller.
Secondly, because his playing style is too aggressive, he often makes some over-the-top moves, especially when his teammates can't keep up, which is a pure gift.
"This player... is very strong, but aren't you a jungler?"
Li Xiaofeng seemed to suddenly think of something and looked at Li Nian in surprise.
"I don't know how to play in the wild."
Li Nian spread his hands, looking innocent.
Li Xiaofeng: ???
…
Half an hour later.
End of the meeting.
Li Nian's words "I don't know how to play jungle" made Li Xiaofeng unable to do it.
Later, after Li Nianhao's explanation, Li Xiaofeng finally understood.
After leaving the conference room, Li Nian turned to look at his teammates: "Did I play like ?"
strawberry:……
Smile:……
Xuexue and Conan looked up at the sky in silence.
"You... don't force me to cut you."
Li Xiaofeng's voice came from the office behind him.
“The soundproofing is really bad.”
Li Nian whispered something, said goodbye to his teammates, and walked towards his dormitory.
What Li Nian is most satisfied with about the WE club at this time is the dormitory.
The conditions for professional players in this era were not particularly good, so each WE player did not live alone, but lived together with four or five people.
Li Nian is a coach, so Li Nian lives in a single room.
Li Nian was generally satisfied with the results of today's meeting.
First of all, the club will discuss the issue of renting Xiang Guo.
Li Nian was not too worried about the result, because he knew very well that Xiang Guo's attitude towards professionalism was very pure, and he had been eager to step onto the LPL competition stage a long time ago.
Besides, Xiang Guo loves to make money.
Xiang Guo once publicly talked about this in a later interview.
Not only can they earn some money, but they can also experience the LPL or even S game stage in advance. Li Nian believes that no one will refuse this condition.
Besides, players of this era are generally not expensive.
As far as Li Nian knows, players like Conan and Xuexue in the team earn less than 10,000 yuan a month as professional players.
As a coach, I only earn a little over 10,000 yuan.
If this is the case for WE, let alone other clubs.
As for what position ... Li Nian has thought about this carefully.
Today's incense pot is a double-edged sword.
Whether you can use this sword well requires a strong command.
Therefore, it is inevitable that Li Nian will change his identity from coach to player. As a player, the most suitable position for Li Nian in WE is also very clear.
That's the auxiliary position.
"Assisting position..."
Li Nian let out a breath slowly.
The champion of the previous S4 World Finals was SSW.
And the fmvp player... is Mata, who plays the support position.
For the S4 season, the importance of the support position has increased several times compared to S3.
Li Nian was also very nervous about this.
Without the favor of the system, he can only rely on himself. Li Nian has no idea whether he can be competent in this position and lead the team to go further.
