Chapter 75
"What do you think of him?"
Mao Kai, who was standing behind the five professional players, witnessed all this. He raised his head slightly and looked at Guo Hao next to him and said softly: "You know he is a person who has been retired for three or four years. If he is allowed to undergo rehabilitation training for a period of time, it is hard to imagine what kind of amazing strength he can exert."
Does Su Xing have talent?
Yes, and it can be described as 'terrifying'. Even after being silent for several years, his understanding of some version changes and his operation are almost the same as active players, or even better.
The most important thing is that he is a domestic player, the kind with a household registration book.
"To be honest, it's hard not to have ideas about him with this kind of performance."
Guo Hao was silent for a few seconds and said slowly: "If it were the Spring Split now, I would sign him without hesitation, but now it is the Summer Split..."
As the general manager of TES, he has a unique obsession with championships, but also has hardships that ordinary people cannot understand.
From 2020... no, to be precise, it should be from 2019 that he has been preparing a championship lineup. Originally, they could have become a dark horse and rushed into the World Championship in the summer of 2019.
But that year the FPX team was too powerful. In the match, even if the mid and jungle swapped positions to play, they still crushed Top Esports.
Maybe for the audience, it was just a failure of a match, but he knew very well that after losing to FPX that year, the whole team of Top Esports had their mentality exploded, and finally were sent away by IG, who still had one breath left, in the bubble match.
Then it was 2020, after going through all kinds of hardships to sign JackeyLove. During this period, he kept lobbying investors to strengthen the lineup every year, but the results year after year made him gradually tired.
Especially the MSI match that just ended, originally losing 2:3 to Samsung ignited a glimmer of hope in his heart, but as a result, he was sent home 3:0 by G2 two days later.
This made him a bit confused. He didn't know if the dream he had insisted on for many years was correct, and he didn't know if the so-called all-Chinese team winning the championship was really an impossible thing.
"Maybe we can sit down and talk to him."
Mao Kai pondered for a moment and said: "I think he is currently the most suitable mid laner for TES, none of them."
"Everyone understands the truth, but money..."
Guo Hao rubbed his eyebrows and said: "Do you really think I have a mine at home? Signing one starts at several million, where do you want me to rob?"
If TES could enter the World Championship last year, maybe they could lower their face and ask investors for money, but... signing Xiao Nai You after failing to keep Rookie in the Spring Split also cost a sum of money, not to mention that they have now strengthened the coach. Where can there be any budget now?
"My intuition tells me that he should have broken away from the low-level interest of playing professionally for money."
Mao Kai paused for a moment and said: "If he really valued money, why did he suddenly disappear when he was at his peak?"
Since S3, the LPL has always been the most lacking in mid laners,
Especially the kind of domestic mid laner with his own household registration book. For Su Xing, winning the best newcomer in the year he debuted is a very exaggerated resume. He could easily get a contract of seven or eight million or even ten million.
But he didn't do that, but felt that the game version was boring, so he just said he wouldn't play if he didn't play.
Guo Hao was a bit entangled,
Sign, he definitely wants to sign, but the problem is... hey, difficult.
"If you have this idea, you have to hurry up. This matter tonight can't be hidden from others. Maybe they will also be interested in Su Xing and try to contact him."
Mao Kai smiled. As a coach, he naturally has the obligation to recommend more suitable players to the manager, but the final decision-making power is not in his hands.
Now he has told Guo Hao all the pros and cons of this matter, as for how to weigh it, it all depends on himself.
"Hmm, I know."
Guo Hao closed his eyes and stopped talking, as if weighing the pros and cons in his heart.
Not long after, the people of the TES team took off their headphones one after another, each with an extremely ugly face. "Let's review."
Mao Kai cleared his throat and said: "Losing is not terrible, what is terrible is that you don't know where you lost."
Losing to a group of old men is indeed shameful, but what can you do if you lose? You can only seek the mistakes you made in failure and correct them.
At the same time, in the streams of Su Xing and others, there are full screens of '666' and 'awesome' barrages. After all, before the game, no one expected that a group of old men could really beat active professional players.
"It's over, TES is going to change the mid laner after tonight..."
"The sisters in the TES super topic are killing crazy. Originally, JackeyLove was the most pitted, but now after tonight's game, they started to output mid laner Xiao Nai You directly."
"This doesn't make sense. JackeyLove should take the blame for losing to G2, what does it have to do with others?"
"Mainly Xiao Nai You performed too poorly tonight. Losing to G2 is fine, but how can he not even beat a retired old man? Looking at the two games, there are only four words: mid lane gap."
"The streamer just said he was retired, but secretly practiced for two and a half years and then came back to the Old Man Cup and became famous."
"Understood, the streamer is the real JackeyLove of LPL."
"Seriously, no matter what the streamer has been doing for the past few years, it's a pity not to go with this state."
"Not going to play professionally to become famous, but staying in Huya to bully old men?"
"Cold fact, the streamer has already become famous once. There are not many mid laners who can win the best newcomer of the year in the year they debuted."
The viewers in the stream are blowing, and even the teammates in the YY are blowing in various ways.
"Amazing, really amazing."
TheShy was at a loss for words and could only repeat the word 'amazing' constantly. God knows how many times he said 'amazing' tonight.
"Don't urge the barrage, the streamer will make a comeback with Su Xing's thigh next year."
Uzi also rarely joked with the barrage and said: "Remember to give some pressure to all the clips on the whole network tomorrow. If Su Xing makes a comeback and doesn't take me to play, remember to come back and pity the streamer."
"Ah?"
Su Xing had a face full of question marks. Brother is just playing for fun, how come he started arranging a comeback?
"This state is maintained too well."
Bao Lan praised: "Look at Xiao Dongbei, he hasn't been retired for long, but compared to you, he seems a bit not good. Have you really not touched the game for these years?"
Everyone who can play professionally is a genius among geniuses, but even TheShy, Uzi, and Bao Lan couldn't believe that Su Xing's talent would be more terrifying than they imagined.
Being able to have such a performance without playing the game for so long, looking at the whole LPL... no, it should be that no second one can be found in the world.
"Exaggerated."
Su Xing just smiled, but at this moment he saw his phone screen light up. It was Gao Wen calling him.
"Sorry, I have a call to answer."
Su Xing felt a bit confused. Why would Gao Wen call him while he was streaming?
