"Cao Cao, you simply have no idea how happy domestic CSGO players are today."

An excited voice came from the female voice in her hand, and Xu Qingru kept talking on the other end of the phone.

"How do you say that?" Meng De was also a little curious as to why Xu Qingru said this.

"It's already early morning in China, but listen to the screams and shouts from Hangcheng University not far away..."

Xu Qingru's cell phone seemed to have been put out of the window, and the wind kept whistling, but in the distance one could vaguely hear words such as "Team A is awesome" and "Cao thieves are always in trouble".

Considering that now in China, Xu Qingru is still a certain distance away from Hangcheng University, and the overall popularity can be seen as average.

"College students are at the age where they are passionate." Meng De recalled his college days. At that time, he always liked to stay up late to watch games, but because of the poor domestic performance, he could not fall asleep after watching them.

At that time, I really had pure love, and the past is always missed.

Xu Qingru was also amazed by her boyfriend's strong working ability.

She said she wanted to start a business before, but she just found an industry she liked and tried it.

The interests of the CSGO industry are not high without gambling.

Under normal circumstances, her small amount of entrepreneurial capital might only last for less than a few months before she declared failure, just like her best friend in the North American Investment Club.

At that time, her best friend also invested in a club, but lost money early and was eliminated. Now, every time we talk about it, her best friend gets extremely angry.

Why did she lose so much money on her investment that Xu Qingru made a lot of money?

There is a saying that goes well: I am afraid of my brother’s hardship, but I am also afraid of my brother driving a Land Rover.

That's how her best friend feels now.

It’s just that Xu Qingru knew the reason. The reason for her success was no other than the person on the other side of the phone.

Except for the functions of the club that she needs to coordinate, the other main parts of the club are basically run by Meng De.

The team's ability to achieve such good results depends entirely on Meng De's ability to discover players.

If it weren't for Meng De, she would probably have been eliminated as early as her best friend.

After thinking about this, Xu Qingru's voice became gentler.

"How many days do you plan to stay there?"

Mengde thought about his subsequent actions in Cologne, and then replied: "It will take at least 4 days. There will be a media day the day after tomorrow. I need to be interviewed by the community and signed by fans. I also need to let the players relax in the follow-up. NIKO proposed to wait.

Take us to a bar for a drink."

"Stay a few more days in Cologne and let them relax." Xu Qingru said with a smile, "Don't worry about the expenses. The club will pay for your travel expenses in the next few days."

"this……"

"What?" Xu Qingru was a little surprised, why wasn't she happy when traveling at public expense?

Meng De understood what Xu Qingru meant and explained: "I am just worried that they are playing too wildly and it will affect their subsequent state. After all, the championship in Cologne is just the beginning. We still have many games to prepare for in the future."

"Cao Cao, I'm not talking about you." Xu Qingru scolded Meng De on the other end of the phone, "You are good at everything, you are good-looking, have strong work ability and a strong sense of responsibility."

"They are all praising me."

"Ahem." Xu Qingru was a little embarrassed and immediately added, "Listen to me, you are just too capable of working, but they are not like you. They need to rest. Your relaxation is the same as theirs.

There is a difference between relaxation and relaxation. You have to give them some rest time to relax their body and mind so that they can better devote themselves to the next game. They have complained to me more than once that they are stressed..."

Listening to the words on the other end of the phone, Meng De was silent for a long time. Thinking about it carefully, he really wanted everything to be perfect.

Whether it’s in-game tactics, marksmanship, or discipline.

Or fitness exercises outside the game and diet coordination.

Everything is too formal.

But this is too standard, which will make the

Players feel pressure.

"I understand. We will stay in Cologne for a week to let them have a good rest and adjust. I will also adjust the time of the next game." Mengde quickly changed the previously prepared plan.

"That's it." Xu Qingru yawned on the other end of the phone, "It's getting late, I'm going to bed."

After hanging up the phone with Xu Qingru, Meng De began to announce the publicly funded tours and times in the lounge.

"Holy shit, the club is getting rich!" Broky looked the happiest on the sidelines. Although he has achieved financial freedom through live broadcasts and competition results, no one can refuse free prostitution.

"Our boss is simply the greatest boss." 1ve said from the bottom of his heart.

NIKO winked with S1le beside him: "Comrades, I think you thanked the wrong person, we just got a little benefit."

As he spoke, NIKO pursed his lips in Meng De's direction.

Meng De pretended to beat up NIKO, and for a while the rest room was abuzz with excitement, and everyone was extremely happy.

"We will follow NIKO's suggestion later and go to the clear bar he recommended to have a drink and relax a little."

"Wuhu!" NIKO couldn't stop smiling when he heard the coach's answer, "Today I'm going to show you the real nightclub god!"

Everyone had almost rested. After hearing NIKO's words, everyone began to pack their things and prepare to return to the hotel first.

"What about the trophy?" Xiaoju pointed to the trophy on the table. This thing is quite important. Do you really want to take it home?

"Oh." Considering that this is the first time the second team has won a major championship, Meng De gave them a popular science guide, "Generally, there is only one trophy for this kind of competition, especially fixed competitions like Cologne and Katowice.

I will only stay at the venue."

"Then we don't want to take it back?" Electronic Brother said strangely. He wanted to take the first trophy to his daughter to play with.

It would be a pity if I couldn't take it back with me.

"Brother Qiang, go call the event staff and ask them to collect the trophy." Meng De turned to Wu Qiang to make arrangements, and then continued to explain, "Considering the special nature and commemorative significance of the trophy, the players can have the trophy.

Just give the event team your address, and they will make a copy and mail it home to you."

"Of course, you need to bear these expenses yourself." Wang Yuning added thoughtfully.

Broky and others breathed a sigh of relief. Although they had received the honor, if there really wasn't a trophy, they felt that this experience was not that fulfilling.

After all, no one wants to have a flower pot behind them as a trophy when they live broadcast in the future.

The staff of the event team quickly came to the VC lounge. After simply confirming that the trophy was OK, they went through all the procedures and the trophy was about to be taken back.

Taking advantage of the last few minutes, everyone in the second team hurriedly took selfies and posted them on WeChat Moments.

Then everyone picked up their packed peripherals and belongings and started riding back to the hotel.

After putting their things away, following NIKO's instructions, everyone headed to a bar recommended by him to relax.

However, there was a small episode in the middle.

Broky cannot enter the bar because of his age.

In Cologne, you are not allowed to drink alcohol if you are under age, this is documented in the law.

So, while everyone was drinking and chatting, Broky was alone at the KFC next door.

…

Leisure time always passes quickly. During the few days in Cologne, the team building life of all VC members in Cologne was basically broadcast live by enthusiastic netizens.

On the night of winning the championship, Broky showed off KFC alone, which became a laughing point in the community.

They spent a full week in Cologne, seeing all the attractions of all sizes, before returning to Hangzhou with unfulfilled interests.

Meng De also found that Xu Qingru's experience was quite reasonable.

After winning the championship, they completely put aside everything about CSGO and devoted their minds to life, and the string that had been tight in their minds slowly relaxed.

Meng De can easily detect that the players are in better condition and everyone is performing more energetically.

After returning to Hangzhou, because Meng De took the initiative to turn down several recent events, all their tasks were not so rich. Meng De even took the initiative to give a holiday to the team members who wanted to visit their relatives and let them go and have a look.

Family, share the joy of winning with your family.

Basically everyone in the second team chose to go home. There is an old saying that goes well, if wealth does not return home, it is like walking at night in brocade clothes.

Although they are professional players, their reputation has not been very good. The society generally thinks that e-sports players are a group of Internet-addicted teenagers.

They have achieved some results this time, and naturally they want their families to see that they have a cause that they are fighting for, and they are not just playing around with things.

After returning to Hangzhou, everything slowed down because all members of the second team were on vacation.

However, on the Internet, discussions about the IEM Cologne finals still exist. Team A's tactics of setting fire to Area B in the finals were even named "Sky Fire" by netizens. The speed of spread is difficult to estimate. In short, after the finals, the community only needs

When it comes to tactics or things from the IEM Cologne event, discussions about it are inevitable.

Regarding Team A, most people have begun to discuss their true strength. Nowadays, no one is saying that their strength is low. There are more analysis on the tactics of Team A's games. Of course, some people say that their tactics are too unconstrained.

The use can be harsh. Even the most brilliant "Skyfire" has to use up all the smoke bombs on the opposite side. Many people think that the tactics of Team A are a bit extreme.

It is a good thing to go to the extreme. It is difficult for their tactics to have too amazing breakthroughs in the future, but the consequences of developing tactics too early are within Meng De's expectation. What's more, if these things are exposed, they can make

Others focus more on their tactics and focus less on personal matters.

Recently, he has begun to plan to let the second team polish the details. Mengde plans to let the second team have a tacit understanding of the team and raise it.

What’s more interesting is that many professional teams have started experimenting with six-man lineups after IEM Cologne.
