Chapter 35 I will
Yuan Zhuo never thought that he would get ten wishes as compensation even though he did something wrong.
That's ten!
"Brother, you are right, right? Not one, but ten?!"
Qi Ji never lied to anyone, and keeping his word was one of his life principles.
Looking at Yuan Zhuo's eyes sparkling with excitement and joy, his heart was both relieved and heavy.
But it seemed that the proportion of relief was greater, after all, the last stage of his life was just a gray and silent journey.
Because of Yuan Zhuo's appearance, many unexpected colors were born. In this case, he should also face it with a more relaxed attitude, right? Moreover
, if he can make the people in front of him happy, why should he suppress and feel uncomfortable?
After thinking it over, the heaviness in Qi Ji's heart gradually disappeared.
"Well, but it needs to be within the scope of what can be done."
If he wants the moon in the sky, this may be a little difficult. At most, he can only buy meteorites for him, or find a way to buy the naming rights of asteroids, using his name or ID.
Qi Ji's words interrupted Yuan Zhuo's thoughts that kept running in his mind. He hugged Qi Ji and swung him around. He was so beautiful that he seemed to be able to ascend to heaven on the spot.
"Then I have to think about it carefully. Hey, these are ten wishes!"
"Well, but it's better to do it as soon as possible."
Otherwise, he was afraid that there would not be enough time.
...
Just like this, until the spring season was about to start, Yuan Zhuo finally carefully selected ten wishes.
Looking at the WeChat he sent, Qi Ji was in a daze.
Wish list:
1. I want to celebrate New Year with my brother
2. I want to watch the sunrise with my brother
3. I want to celebrate my birthday with my brother
4. I want to see the aurora
with my brother 5. I want to go skiing in the Alps with my brother
6. I want to watch animal migration in the African savannah with my brother
7. I want to go to Antarctica with my brother to see penguins
8. I want to win the world championship with my brother
9. I want to kiss my brother... (ω) (You can cross it out if my brother doesn't want to)
10. I want to go to Las Vegas with my brother to get the marriage certificate (it doesn't count if my brother doesn't want to)
Although he didn't ask, Qi Ji guessed that with Yuan Zhuo's family background, he should have been to all these places.
He was asked to come up with ten wishes to fulfill his wishes, but he wanted to take him to see the world.
His eyes suddenly became sore and swollen. Qi Ji covered his eyes with one hand, and the hand holding the phone was shaking slightly.
Seven years have passed, and for the first time, he actually had the thought of not wanting to leave this world...
When Qi Ji was struggling painfully, Yuan Zhuo sent another message.
Yuan Zhuo: Brother, are these wishes okay?
Yuan Zhuo: Okay, the last two don't count!
Yuan Zhuo: Brother, what's wrong, don't ignore me, I was wrong, o(╥﹏╥)o
Yuan Zhuo: If... it really doesn't work, you can delete a few, I can do it, brother!
Taking a deep breath and trying to calm himself down, Qi Ji replied to Yuan Zhuo with trembling fingers.
"Okay."
After receiving Qi Ji's reply, Yuan Zhuo, who was far away in Haicheng, immediately cheered.
Seeing this, Cheng Xiaowa on the side looked at him curiously with his big eyes.
"No way, brother, just because we play GF in the opening game, you are so happy?"
That's right, just a moment ago, HPL officials just announced the schedule of the spring season, and the opening game is between GF led by Qi Ji and MG led by Yuan Zhuo.
There are currently 18 teams in the HPL Division A League, and the spring regular season will be held in early January every year.
The regular season is all BO3 (three games, two wins). For example, if the score is 2:0, the winning team will get two points, and if the score is 2:1, the winning team will only get 1 point, and the losing team will get no points.
After a round of competition, the ranking will be based on wins and losses and points (wins and losses first, points second), and the top eight teams will enter the playoffs.
The playoffs will be divided into two groups (ranked 1357 in one group and 2468 in another group), with the lower ranking starting the competition (7th vs. 5th, the winner advances, and so on). The winner of the final will win the championship and 120 points, and the points of other teams will decrease.
The same is true for the summer season. The top 2 teams in the total points of the spring and summer seasons will directly advance to the world championship, and the 3rd, 4th, and 5th teams will have to play in the bubble match (5th vs. 4th, and if they win, they will go to play 3rd). The final winner will get the last ticket to the world championship.
So no matter it is the spring or summer season, every game is crucial for the players and teams who want to enter the world championship.
For this result, it is not only Yuan Zhuo who is happy and nervous, but also the vast number of miracle fans and GF team fans.
Needless to say, they were happy because the opening match represented the official recognition of the strongest team in the current division and would attract huge traffic and attention. What
they were worried about was whether Qi Ji would play or not.
Perhaps the experience of being unilaterally slaughtered by melt last time was too terrible and embarrassing. Even the small number of team fans were worried that the brain-depleted management would let jungle, that scumbag, replace Qi Ji.
It has to be said that Qi Ji is always the first focus of HOW and the wealth code for major media and marketing accounts to gain traffic. The next moment after the official announcement of the schedule, they led everyone to discuss whether Qi Ji would play or not, and opened up a full circle of discussions.
Surprisingly, amid everyone's heated discussions and anxious mood, GF took the lead in announcing the starting list of players for the opening match three days before the start of the game.
Seeing Qi Ji's ID - miracle, and his photo appear on GF's official Weibo, everyone was overjoyed and told others about it.
Yuan Zhuo was even more excited. Since his debut in the summer season last year, he and Qi Ji have only played against each other three times.
And at that time, he was an unknown stranger to Qi Ji. Regardless of winning or losing, he probably never paid attention to him. He was the only one who cared about and looked forward to their duel.
But this year is different. This year's spring season is the first season after they entered each other's lives.
GF also replaced the soul thorn, which was the biggest weakness of the team before, and the overall strength has increased greatly.
Yuan Zhuo was very excited just thinking about having a few evenly matched matches with his favorite baby.
Looking at the time, Yuan Zhuo estimated that Qi Ji was still in training. He could only suppress the joy that had already spread throughout his body and wait patiently for him to finish training before looking for him.
However, what Yuan Zhuo didn't know was that Qi Ji was not in training at this moment, but was called to the conference room to meet with the management and coaching staff.
Looking at Qi Ji, who was still calm, even though they didn't notify him in advance and directly announced that he would start, he still kept his composure and didn't take the initiative to look for them.
Manager GF had to admit that this brat was indeed different from the other brats in this circle.
But it was just a little different. In front of capital, they were all insignificant little ants. How much effort would it take to crush an ant? Did
he think he could use public pressure to resist them?
Oh, he was still too young.
Of course, although he thought so in his heart, the manager did not show it this time.
Looking at Qi Ji, he broke away from his previous arrogant and disdainful attitude and waved at him affectionately.
"Qi Ji is here, come and sit down."
Qi Ji didn't know what they were going to do, but no matter what it was, he was not afraid of anything.
He still believed that as long as the club wanted to achieve results and enter the world championship, it would not keep him on the bench forever.
Faced with the manager's sudden enthusiasm, Qi Ji was still lukewarm as usual and chose a seat farthest from him.
Seeing that his attitude was still the same, the manager was annoyed, but still tried to suppress it.
"You kid, you have a really bad temper."
Qi Ji did not react to this untrue evaluation.
He was just thinking about why he did not compromise with the management and they still let him start in the opening game.
The worst result he had expected was that when GF experienced a losing streak and the ranking was critical, the club would be forced to replace him.
Although he will be under tremendous pressure in this situation, he is not afraid. He believes in his own strength and his teammates.
After all, this year their Soul Thorn was replaced by Desert. In the division, his strength is second only to Yuan Zhuo. In fact, with a few more years of experience than Yuan Zhuo, they may be on par at some point.
So why did the management compromise in advance? Is it just because they are afraid of a repeat of the last time they were slaughtered by MG and don't want to bear greater public pressure again?
This is the most reasonable reason Qi Ji can think of at the moment, but for some reason he always feels that things are not that simple.
The reason Qi Ji thought of was indeed not much different from the real situation. After losing to MG in such an ugly way last time, GF was not only caught in a public opinion storm, but even the sponsors came to ask the management whether Qi Ji would not be allowed to play in the future?
Although the manager did not take Qi Ji seriously, he had just taken over the club and many things were not yet in place.
At this time, he really couldn't let GF lose to MG again in the same way in such a short time, otherwise they would face a more intense public opinion storm.
By then, it might not be as simple as the sponsors coming to ask questions, his competitors would also seize this small braid to attack him and pull him down from this position.
So he could only compromise temporarily, but only temporarily.
Patiently, the manager "cajoled" Qi Ji again.
"Okay, Qi Ji, we are all on the same team. We don't need to make a fuss for so long over a small conflict, and let outsiders laugh at us for nothing."
If it were someone else, they would probably give the management some face by saying this, and might even flatter him tactfully.
But Qi Ji doesn't like to chat, and he never does, and there is no need to flatter anyone.
Besides, he just doesn't like to argue, but it doesn't mean he will let others rub him. He can ignore other things. When it comes to training and competition, he has his own persistence and principles.
So under Qi Ji's silence, the scene continued to fall into an unspeakable embarrassment and freezing.
Seeing that he was still unmoved, the manager, who was used to being flattered by his subordinates, could hardly suppress his anger. Afraid that he would lose his temper the next moment, he could only pull his lip with a fake smile.
"Okay, I called you here for no other reason than to ask you to perform well the day after tomorrow."
Having said this, Qi Ji knew that it was time to stop.
In any case, it was a good thing to be able to play, as for the rest, let's talk about it later.
"Got it, let's go to training."
After saying that, he nodded to everyone and prepared to leave the conference room.
Looking at his thin and aloof back, the manager was really furious and wanted to get rid of him on the spot.
However, this kid also has his value. Thinking of this, he sneered and called Qi Ji who had already walked to the door.
"Qi Ji, you will definitely win that day, right?"
Qi Ji stopped walking and stood quietly with his back to him.
The fact that he could ask such a question was enough to prove how little this person knew about e-sports.
During the competition, unless the gap in strength between the two sides was too large, no one could guarantee a 100% win.
Even when there was a huge gap in strength, there were many matches where strong teams overturned.
Because the outcome of an e-sports match is not only determined by strength, but also by the real-time status of both sides and every rapidly changing moment on the field. Sometimes even luck will determine who will win in the end.
Qi Ji had to admit that this was not a few years ago. If it was a few years ago, he was still at his peak and no one could defeat him.
The most important thing is that normal management and coaching staff will never put pressure on players before the game. On the contrary, they will pay attention to protecting the players' competition mentality and state.
But this does not mean that Qi Ji has retreated. On the contrary, facing MG, who is at the peak of his strength, he is full of fighting spirit.
Turning around, his eyes are like a calm sea, but only those who are familiar with him know how many waves are hidden under this vast ocean.
Looking at the manager quietly, he replied.
"I will."
