Volume 3: Taking Roots 2016 Chapter 527 The Tide of the Times
The computer in Zhou Dongsheng
Don’t ask, the only thing you know is that I have money.
Although Zhang Rui has a computer at home, he prefers to go to the Internet cafe to avoid his family's nagging. Even so, it does not prevent him from being able to discern the value of things, and he was envious of the computer as soon as he got his hands on it.
Which boy who plays games can resist such temptation?
"Like it? If you become a king, your cousin will give you a set." Zhou Dongsheng said happily.
This is simply a replica of what the elders say, "If you do well in the exam, I will give you a gift," except that the exam has become a game.
"Wow! Really? Cousin, you are so nice!" This empty promise really stunned Zhang Rui, who was only 17 years old. This was not just a cousin, he was actually a benefactor.
Could it be that what my mother predicted, that I will meet a noble person this year, has come true here?
Zhang Rui inexplicably thought of this in his heart. It was too accurate.
"Professional players have no shortage of good equipment. The equipment in IM clubs is even better, of course, provided you can become a professional player."
"Professional players are not as glamorous as they seem. They train for at least ten hours a day. The boring training is much more boring than the game. If you don't really love it, you won't be able to stick to it..."
Although we know that Zhang Rui will enter the professional arena in the future, at this stage, he probably still has too good a vision of the professional arena.
Zhou Dongsheng suddenly wanted to be the guide, so naturally he had to break the unrealistic fantasy first.
Many people confuse professional players with people who play games, but it has to be said that the gap between a hobby and a profession is completely on a different level.
There is a good saying, which is "Don't use your hobbies to challenge other people's livelihood."
Unexpectedly, Zhang Rui said without hesitation: "Of course I know, I have learned about it. I don't find the last-hit training boring. I often practice it by myself when I have nothing to do..."
"I think this kind of basic training is quite interesting. If you play against AI, 90 points out of 10 is no problem. It will be a bit more difficult to play in ranked games..." Zhang Rui said seriously.
Although he didn't know if there was any acting involved, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but give a thumbs up. After all, normal players would rarely spend so much effort honing their skills and training just to improve their strength a little bit.
After all, ordinary players play games just for fun, just like playing basketball. Who would go to great lengths to train thousands of times just for a technique or even a move?
Maybe only passion can do it.
Anyway, Zhou Dongsheng thought he was not good enough, and then Zhang Rui logged into his account with great interest, and there was the conspicuous master level.
"We have just started the campaign for the King title this season, and my points are a bit low right now..." Zhang Rui explained somewhat embarrassedly.
Little did he know that Zhou Dongsheng’s dream of becoming a master could only be realized through Teamfight Tactics, let alone becoming a grandmaster.
As for this life, it is easy to suck up to someone powerful, but after the release of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Zhou Dongsheng became addicted to it.
"It's okay. You are still young and have a lot of potential. Play a game and let me open my eyes . By the way, you said you like Draven?" Zhou Dongsheng said nonchalantly.
"Yes, this is my signature hero." Zhang Rui said confidently.
"Oh? I have two anchors under me. Both of them are good at playing Draven. I'll give you a chance to compete with them. One is called Bao Xiang, and the other is called Jack..." Zhou Dongsheng said slowly.
Zhang Rui suddenly became like a deflated balloon. Bao Xiang was an expert in Draven, but Jack was a talented young man who had become the best in the country. Playing Draven was his forte and was known as the best in the country.
Perhaps except for Crystal in the professional arena who can be better, no one's Draven can surpass these two.
Although Zhang Rui is young and frivolous, he is not a fool. Compared with these two, he is just a younger brother.
"Cousin, I..." Zhang Rui hesitated to speak.
"What? If you want to be a professional player, are you afraid of a strong opponent ? A professional player can't say he is not good enough. He has to fight even if he can't win." Zhou Dongsheng said lightly.
Zhang Rui was shocked and immediately adjusted his attitude, "Cousin is right!"
Zhou Dongsheng suddenly understood why some elders liked to make fun of the younger generation for fun. He had to admit that this feeling... was indeed quite interesting.
There was nothing to do during the New Year, and since his cousin just happened to come to him, Zhou Dongsheng took the opportunity to have some fun.
But while having fun, Zhou Dongsheng was also serious. Since he knew that his cousin had a promising future, he might as well give him a hand in advance as a way to fulfill his duty as a cousin.
As for how far you can go, it depends on your own efforts. He is not your biological brother, so Zhou Dongsheng will not force any arrangements on him.
After all, people with connections will be looked down upon wherever they go. If they want to be respected, they have to show corresponding strength. Zhou Dongsheng is waiting to see what happens.
…
After the first day of the Lunar New Year, the New Year is almost half over. The festive atmosphere gradually fades away, and in the blink of an eye, it is time to start work.
However, as long as the Lantern Festival has not yet passed, it is not time for most people to focus on their daily lives and it is difficult for them to separate themselves from the joy of the Spring Festival.
However, on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, which was Valentine's Day on February 14, Principal Wang had already started work early.
On this day, Zhou Dongsheng was leisurely hanging out at home, scrolling through his Moments on his phone, when he suddenly saw a new post by Principal Wang.
"The screen virginity has been given...thank you all (啾咪)" and was accompanied by three pictures.
When they clicked on it, they saw Principal Wang standing in the middle with a big smile on his face. Next to him were Huang Xiaoming's wife and the hot young actor Jing Boran. There were also some other unfamiliar faces that Zhou Dongsheng was not very familiar with.
The other two photos, one is him having a lot of fun playing arcade games with Huang Xiaoming’s wife, and the other is a player’s certificate.
Zhou Dongsheng suddenly realized that it was this movie. There was no doubt that the quality of this movie could be seen from the cast.
Putting aside the fan filter, this movie is indeed lackluster and there is nothing much to say. Even Principal Wang's screen debut cannot save this movie.
In comparison, if he agrees to make a guest appearance in "Wolf Warrior 2", I wonder if he can catch up with the trend of the times with this main theme and turn danger into safety?
Obviously, this is unknown, but this post on WeChat Moments did remind Zhou Dongsheng that it was time to get to work.
More than half of the year has passed, which means that 2016 has officially begun. After all, for Chinese people, the New Year's Eve is just for fun, and only the Spring Festival can be considered the New Year.
As the infrastructure of mobile Internet is further improved, whether it is the maturity of 4G technology or the penetration of mobile smart phones, it provides a foundation for the explosion of mobile Internet.
The tide of the times has been rolling in invisibly. The success of anyone is inseparable from the blessing of the torrent of the times. And who will be accomplished by this wave of the times?
Zhou Dongsheng is well aware of this.
