Sheng Quan won the title of the first investor without any suspense.
However, she did not ask Tan Chen to play with her, but said that she only wanted to ask him about e-sports and various knowledge in the polar regions, which was equivalent to having a chat.
I have to mention here that the game coins in Polar can be converted into cash, and some game-related equipment | copy qualifications | props can also be purchased directly with coins.
Tan Chen has been participating in boxing matches frequently because this is the only way he can think of to make money quickly without having to wait.
But this method also has disadvantages. There is almost no time for the hands to rest, and injuries continue to accumulate. It is equivalent to overdrawing one's own health to make money.
Young newcomers may not understand, but Tan Chen, who has been in the e-sports industry for such a long time, knows it clearly.
Although he loves e-sports, it is not entirely true to say that he is risking his life on it.
——"We just need to hold on for this period of time."
On the pure and sacred snow mountain, because Sheng Quan asked this question, Tan Chen smiled and answered:
"Although our team is small, our players who broke the water are very strong, so it won't be a problem to fight all the way up."
Maybe it was because he had just had a very satisfying fight, or maybe it was because Sheng Quan didn't laugh at him, but Tan Chen's tone gradually became more lively and flamboyant: "As long as we can perform well, we can attract big bosses to invest. Then, the club will have funds and a team doctor, and I can recover well."
Sheng Quan could tell that Tan Chen attached great importance to his teammates, and whenever he spoke of them, his tone was relaxed and gentle.
She was almost certain of it.
Tan Chen is not only a talented professional player, but also has extraordinary talent as an e-sports coach.
It's easy to imagine how it is possible that for a small team like Poshui, every player is such a top talent in the industry by coincidence.
Although there are only a few words describing Tan Chen in the book, her research on e-sports related information during this period was not in vain. Professional players are generally young when they enter the industry, so those players with good results are usually hired as coaches by major clubs after retirement.
After retiring, Tan Chen was hired as a coach by one of the three major clubs, but he resigned after only three months in office, taking with him Bai Xiangyuan, the club's unpopular youth trainee.
Afterwards, he formed a small team called Po Shui, which included some young people who were about the same age as Bai Xiangyuan, and waited patiently for the global competition held every three years.
Years of experience in gossip allowed Sheng Quan to easily search for forum posts from that time. Although he could not piece together all of it, he could see that Bai Xiangyuan did not show any outstanding talent at that time.
So how did he become the "Rookie King" now?
Also, in the one or two sentences briefly written in the book, it was clear that the development was just as Tan Chen had wished, with the water breaking all the way up and gradually becoming the focus of everyone's attention.
Perhaps this small team cannot become rich overnight, but they will definitely no longer need Tan Chen to risk his health to make money.
So in the end, why did Tan Chen die from an injury?
Sheng Quan thought of a possibility, and she asked: "Have you ever thought about returning to the competition?"
"Since you have a spot on the team, you should be able to play in the game, right?"
Tan Chen was stunned for a moment, then smiled with some regret and a little relief in reality:
"I've thought about it before. To be honest, when I just retired, I dreamed of playing in the game almost every night. But now that I think about it, I've already accepted this outcome. I'm just a little unwilling to accept it."
Sheng Quan didn't ask Tan Chen why he was unwilling.
Although it was only their first contact, she could probably guess that Tan Chen was not unable to accept the outcome of retirement.
But perhaps, he, who was once a young man full of vigor and vitality, wanted to announce his departure with a smile after winning the championship.
Instead of being suppressed by the club, sitting on the bench at the best age for e-sports, without even the chance to play in the game, he was dragged down by injuries after being seconded everywhere.
She asked again: "So, you won't be on the court anymore?"
"No."
Tan Chen answered with certainty.
After answering, he smiled again: "Besides, there is no need for me to play in the game now, it is enough to let those young people go."
There was even a hint of pride in his tone.
Sheng Quan couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Tan Chen's attitude at this time was very firm. He had regrets , but he knew very well that he couldn't play.
And although he looks like he’s fighting without regard for his life, Tan Chen actually has a plan in mind and has calculated every step clearly.
So in the original novel, the water was clearly breaking and progressing rapidly, so what happened to cause Tan Chen's injury to flare up? She was thinking about it, and Lie Yan saw that she was silent and interrupted her:
"Yeah, yeah, boss, I told you this, this guy is like an old hen protecting her cubs."
Tan Chen controlled the game character and kicked him: "We agreed that only the winner can play together, why did you have to come along?"
"Didn't the boss say she wanted to learn about e-sports?" Lieyan dodged flexibly and laughed, "You are such a jerk, what if you can't tell the boss what she wants to know?"
"Well, I'm talkative and good at chatting, so just think of it as a buy one get one free deal. The boss has agreed to it, so you can just be happy with my help."
After saying that, he controlled the huge bear man and made a heart shape towards the two of them.
Sheng Quan was amused by the flames.
She could tell that Lieyan was worried that Tan Chen's inability to speak would upset her, the big boss, so she came over to help: "Yes, I agree."
Lieyan immediately acted as if he had received some imperial decree, and proudly controlled the game character to jump around Tan Chen.
Sheng Quan looked at the snowflakes accumulated in the gourd and said, "There are almost enough snowflakes. I will go to the top of the mountain to collect them. This is a solo mission, so you don't have to come up."
After she left, Lieyan immediately approached Tan Chen and said, "I think the boss of Wujiangshan is really optimistic about you. Why don't you seize the opportunity? This is a big money sponsor who can recharge 200 million yuan in the game."
Tan Chen was helpless: "They raised their bets in me because they thought highly of me. How could they turn around and solicit investment? She said she was in the film and television industry and was a complete newcomer in e-sports. Isn't this embarrassing?"
"And didn't you hear it just now? The boss didn't just top up 200 million for fun. She obviously wanted to get the year-round shares of Polar."
Tan Chen often studies news related to the polar regions, so of course he knew this news.
This year, Polar officially launched an activity to give back to players. The player with the highest score in the game can get Polar's year-round shares.
The points of the game are naturally calculated based on the amount of krypton gold. Every recharged money and every huge in-game expenditure can all be converted into points.
Lieyan opened his eyes wide: "What the hell? Just for that little bit of shares? That's not a lot of shares, can't I buy something with 200 million?"
"The boss must have her own plans."
Tan Chen actually didn't understand much about this. Although they had only met by chance in the game, he could feel that Sheng Quan was using the money in a planned way.
"She seems to be the type who can enjoy herself, but will never waste every penny."
Tan Chen paused and whispered, "In that match just now, she really thought I could win."
So he never thought of asking Shengquan for investment as Lieyan said.
It is precisely because I feel the kindness that I don’t want to burden the person who shows the kindness.
Lieyan smacked his lips. "You two have only talked for half an hour, and you've already figured out what kind of personality she has? How come I can't see anything except that she's rich?"
Tan Chen did not stop digging snow grass: "When playing games, insight is basic."
"It's normal that you can't see."
“That’s right.” Lieyan also squatted down and dug with him. As he was digging, he suddenly realized: “Damn it! Are you saying that I’m bad at playing games?!”
"I didn't say that."
"That's what you mean. I said that when I first met you, I thought you were mean and mean."
Then it slowly became lifeless.
Tan Chen was silent for a few seconds before he said, "Lieyan, thank you."
Lieyan witnessed almost every transformation of his, but this "gaming netizen" never asked or said anything, but just dragged him to play games as usual.
"You're welcome. We're just friends, but you're serious. After that game, you really seemed to be alive again."
Lieyan was quite emotional:
"If I had known that beating me up would energize you, I would have let you beat me up a long time ago. What a pity."
Tan Chen: "If you want, I can beat you up again."
Lieyan: "...Goodbye!"
After a while of joking around, both of them were in a good mood.
On the one hand, Tan Chen's financial pressure was relieved because of this "huge investment". On the other hand, in reality, with the live broadcast of the variety show, Po Shui's fame was also rising.
This small and poor team had already gained some fans because of its rapid progress in the competition. If it weren't for Bai Xiangyuan's mistake in the last game, according to Tan Chen's original plan, the team would have started to have sponsors this month.
Unfortunately, because of the loss in the last game, the sponsors who were originally on the sidelines became hesitant.
Tan Chen had no choice but to push himself to compete in various competitions, but now, everything is moving in a good direction. The broadcast of the variety show has calmed the fans' mood very well, and they only need to wait for the next game to reverse the situation.
Moreover, he could see Sheng Quan and Lie Yan almost every time he logged into the game. Although the three of them didn't chat much anymore, playing games as a team allowed Tan Chen to spend a rare period of happy and leisure time.
Sheng Quan was also very happy.
Before she met Tan Chen and the others, she thought this game was very fun. With the guidance of two god-level veteran players, she could play any game smoothly. The dungeon area was like entering and exiting an uninhabited area, and there were also various stealth modes in the game.
In short, Mr. Sheng was so happy that he was flying.
In reality, she was not idle either, and had been comparing various assets. The only thing she couldn't understand was why in the original novel, Tan Chen's injuries had erupted to such a serious degree.
Although they are a little short of money now, it is not to the point where they must have a big sponsor at this moment, otherwise they will all die in a moment.
Even if Sheng Quan did not invest, in another month, there would be sponsors coming in one after another, and all of this was in Tan Chen's plan.
——Until Tan Chen didn’t play the game for three consecutive days.
Sheng Quan asked Lieyan and found out that Bai Xiangyuan, the team member who broke the water and caused the mistake in the last game, actually wanted to leave the team. Tan Chen has been dealing with these matters these days.
She asked, "Do you have his phone number?"
Lieyan's eyes lit up immediately and he quickly made the call. The whole series of actions took less than two seconds.
On this day, Tan Chen, who was sitting on the steps, received a call.
"Actually, I'm not just into film and television."
Sheng Quan looked at the acquisition contract in his hand: "I didn't tell you, did I? Even though I'm a newcomer."
"But that doesn't stop me from having an e-sports club."
