Walking into the player gathering place, Zheng Dian couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw the numbers jumping on the screen. That was the data monitoring of the players who voted to participate in the all-server league list, and Zheng Dian undoubtedly topped the list.
The party was held in the hotel¡¯s banquet hall. There were 40 tables in the huge banquet hall, and well-known players from all over the country gathered together. Shao Yang and the heads of several large studios were sitting at the main table in the middle near the speaker's seat. Zheng Dian found that there were several people he didn't know, and one of them kept looking in his direction. This man is about 30 years old, tall and handsome. What is particularly attractive is his friendly smile. While chatting and laughing with a few people around him in a low voice, he elegantly laid out his napkin and waved a glass of red wine freely in his hand, looking very well-educated.
But Zheng Dian subconsciously felt that this man was dangerous. There was a kind of hostility hidden under his gentle smile, which was exposed by the occasional flash of his eyes.
Due to Zheng Dian¡¯s firm refusal, Master Shao did not place him at the main table, but simply found a seat in a corner of the banquet hall to sit down. A player seemed to recognize him. He saw him walking smoothly and sat down next to him. He quickly stood up excitedly, laid out a napkin for him, and poured a glass of red wine diligently.
Zheng Dian smiled and expressed his gratitude to him and greeted everyone at the same table one by one. It seems that only one of them knows him, and the others don't care about him. The person who has reached such a corner is probably not a big shot. In addition, Zheng Dian deliberately wore black, so it is difficult for someone who is not familiar with him. Match the number.
I¡¯m so happy to see you. "The man was about to shout out in excitement. Zheng Dian shook his hand at him and immediately changed his tune.
Zheng Dian smiled: "I'm very happy to see you, but I haven't asked for advice yet."
"My name is Luffy. Do you still remember that 'killing pigs for a living' thing on the trading channel?" Luffy opened his eyes and looked at Zheng Dian nervously, fearing that he would say he had forgotten.
"Is it you?" Zheng Dian laughed when he heard this. We have never met each other in life. When he and Xiao Hong were pouring sulfur in the Fire Soul Mountain Range, wasn't the first person they contacted him to be "killing pigs for a living"? I didn't expect him. He is also one of the well-known players. Zheng Dian quickly picked up the wine glass, clinked it with him and said:
"I didn't expect to meet an old friend here. Come and have a drink with us two businessmen."
Luffy was even more excited now. All the idols in the server took the initiative to toast to him. Now he should be bragging when he goes back. The two drank the wine in the glass and started talking quietly.
"Are you talking about the people at the main table?" Luffy said, "Except for a few of the country's leading studio bosses, the rest are the heads of big families in the game. In past gatherings, they usually I won¡¯t be there, so I don¡¯t know why I¡¯m so interested today.¡±
As Luffy spoke, he introduced Zheng Dian one by one. When he heard the words "Jiang Zhengxiang" come out of his mouth, Zheng Dian's expression changed. The Jiang Zhengxiang that Luffy was talking about was the one who gave him the strange feeling just now.
"In the game world, there are three families that are the uncrowned kings, the Duan family, the Jiang family and the Wei family from the capital. They rarely show off in the game, but often the biggest interests in the game will be manipulated by them. If they don't move, it will be done. , their movements are earth-shattering, and their strength is so strong that no one dares to challenge them. But after a while, everyone knows their style of doing things. Even if they don't have any top-ranked players, they naturally regard them as the top-notch players in the game. To treat.¡±
Luffy was talking eloquently, and he obviously understood these things very well. He was worthy of being someone who often hides in the trading channel to search for treasures.
At this time, the door of the banquet hall was opened, and a group of people, led by the ushering lady, walked onto the speaking table. Suddenly, the banquet hall burst into applause. Zheng Dian saw Li Yuan walking at the front. As soon as he, the host, came on stage, the frenzied subordinates below did not try hard to build momentum for his boss.
"Hello to all studio bosses and game masters from all over the country. It has been raining and the wind is blowing recently, and everything is falling from the sky. Lanzhou, a border town, can hold such a grand event. It is because of me, Li Yuantou, that I accidentally It was hit." Li Yuan brought the conference hall into a relaxed atmosphere with just one sentence when he came on stage.
"First of all, I have to bow to Master Shao. Master Shao is a national hero of China and our bread and butter. This time, he has praised me, Li Yuan, so much. I have to express my gratitude to him on behalf of all the helmet professionals in Lanzhou." After saying that, he bowed respectfully towards Master Shao's position. This caused several prominent figures sitting next to Master Shao to quickly stand up and move out of their seats. Master Shao did not dare to accept the gift, so he also stood up and gave way. The bloody uncle on the side smiled and said:
"Brother Li, if you want to bow, just do it all at once. I can't move my butt when I see good wine. Besides, I will move my butt when you bend over. We can't do that."
??This sentence was so obscene that everyone burst into laughter.
"Brother Qin, if you say so, I will bow to you. We Lanzhou people are poor. If you move your butt, we will pay less for drinks. It's a good deal." Li Yuan dealt with it easily. A prince is really nothing. Anyone can do it.
"Although everyone here is a colleague, and we often meet each other in the game, but after playing the game, we may not be able to match each other. Since we have such an opportunity, it is natural to get to know each other. So I suggest that first of all, we should take this first Let's get acquainted with each other first." As he said this, Li Yuan picked up a glass of red wine from the plate brought by the waiter on the side, raised it, and began to introduce the people present, introducing each person to raise the glass.
"Master Shao needs no introduction. His hair, which has turned white for the Chinese people, is said to soon replace the old man on the McDonald's logo. Those who don't know him must be aliens."
Everyone chuckled again, followed by thunderous applause. Everyone has a sincere respect for this most sincere gamer.
"The three people sitting next to Master Shao are Mr. Jiang Zhengxiang, the head of the Chiang Group, Mr. Duan Chenggang of the Duan Group, and Mr. Wei Yuan of the Wei Group. These three business tycoons do not easily show their faces, so they can come today. , It¡¯s really a huge honor. Everyone¡¯s applause should be slightly smaller than Master Shao¡¯s just now.¡±
There was another burst of thunderous applause. For them, everyone in the gaming industry knows very well that these three are the real gaming giants. Seeing them here today shows how high the standard of this gathering is.
Seeing Li Yuancong introducing the people at the main table one by one, everyone thought that these people were the ones who would get special introductions. Just when they were thinking about what the next program would be, they saw Li Yuan suddenly paused. He put on a strange expression that looked like a smile but not a smile, and lowered his voice and said:
"There is another person who likes to play low-key and doesn't want to sit at the main table. For this reason, he asked Master Shao to go through the back door. Although it is his usual style to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, but today when he came to my territory, Li Yuan, nothing happened. We have to pull him out and expose him. It¡¯s not easy for Lanzhou elders to hold such a grand gathering. No one can even think of leaving after drinking and wiping their mouths.¡±
Hearing what Li Yuan said, Zheng Dian knew that he couldn't escape, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Luffy on the side was so excited that he couldn't hold it, as if he was going to be introduced.
"Brother Arrow God, please show your face. You are deliberately letting the Lanzhou people poke my spine. If those people know that the Arrow God has come to Lanzhou, but leave me, Li Yuan, alone, then it would be better to be killed directly in the game. Let's fight like crazy."
Zheng Dian knew he couldn't escape, so he stood up with a wry smile. Just as he was about to speak, he found that the whole place was suddenly extremely quiet, so quiet that he was stunned for a moment. More than 400 pairs of eyes shot towards this corner. They were shocked, excited, and amused. The eyes with different meanings converged on Zheng Dian, which made him unable to bear it.
"Everyone, I'm not very handsome, so you don't have to be so direct."
"Pfft¡ª¡ª"
The first time the legendary Arrow God spoke such a sentence, several people burst out on the spot. Then Zheng Dian and Master Shao met with each other and were polite to everyone. They were about to sit down when they suddenly heard a voice saying:
"It's rare for us to see the God of Arrow in real life. It's an honor for us to have the opportunity to meet him here today. Let's see if the God of Arrow can sit down at the main table and say a few words to you."
The person who spoke was none other than Jiang Zhengxiang. As he spoke, he motioned to the waiter on the side to add a seat next to him. His suggestion was echoed by everyone.
Zheng Dian was secretly on guard. He had rarely seen such big events in real life, but the battles he had experienced in the game were unmatched by anyone. At this time, Jiang Zhengxiang jumped out and said that if there was no purpose, He wouldn't believe it even if I beat him to death. Although they have never met, there are many secret confrontations in the game. Last time in the Black Delta, Zheng Dian gave the Jiang family a hard blow and made them have their teeth broken and their blood swallowed with unspeakable pain. Given Jiang Zhengxiang's wisdom, this hatred will naturally be blamed on him.
But everyone was clamoring for him to say a few words, and he couldn¡¯t refuse, so he had to stand up again and walk to the main table, smiling and saying:
"Mr. Jiang is pushing you into the fire pit. Don't be fooled. You all know that I have a habit of reaching out to everyone for donations whenever I have the opportunity. If I sit in that seat, I will reach out to everyone later. At that time, you are all rich people, so don¡¯t let me hold my hand back."
Everyone knows that the God of Arrow has done a great job in charity work in the northwest. When he said this, everyone laughed heartily.
"Especially for wealthy people like Mr. Jiang, Mr. Wei and Mr. Duan, if a little bit of leakage from their hands is enough for the rookies under me, they will live forever."?There is plenty to eat and drink, so we must have a good exchange. "
What he said was somewhat respectful, and everyone took care of it. After Zheng Dian sat down next to Jiang Zhengxiang and greeted everyone, Li Yuan saw that it was almost done and announced the start of the banquet.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????After eating and drinking half-full, Master Shao walked up to the speaking table with a wine glass. Everyone knew that the drama had begun, and all of a sudden their attention was focused on him.
"I'll let the two local bosses Li Yuan and Zheng Dian finish their polite words. I won't say more. This gathering mainly has two themes. One is the server-wide league that will be held in five days, and the other is the National War Forum opened again."
"Regarding the full-server league, what needs to be solved now is the issue of the participating list. In this league, the mastermind itself has not restricted player participation. Any player can participate as long as they pay the registration fee. But taking the opportunity of this league, the global board of directors has decided to To test the level of players from various countries, a special competition was set up. Each country selected 100 player representatives to compete against each other. The United States, Europa, RB and our China were listed as seed teams."
"The whole country is paying great attention to this game. The government has instructed us to treat this matter as a top priority. Some people even call it the Olympics in games, so we elites in the game must also pay attention to it and collect it. Have a 'playing' mentality and treat it as a task to complete. Here I would like to mention two points: first, do your part, you are capable, everyone has elected you, please don't refuse; second, take the overall situation into consideration, here I use With my old face, I beg you all, this battle is related to the national honor and don¡¯t bring your personal interests into the game.¡±
When Master Shao spoke, everyone naturally agreed. Seeing that no one had any objections, Shao Yang asked everyone to look at the voting data that was still scrolling on the big screen.
"Based on the voting results in the Huaxia Game Zone, the list of 100 names has basically come out, and the names on it are basically among all of you here today. Let's discuss it first, what matters to you? Any special circumstances can be raised first. Everyone is acting in a public spirit, and the purpose is to ensure that we achieve good results in the league."
The 100 names on the screen are all powerful players in the game, each with their own specialties. In particular, there are eleven players with god-level titles like Zheng Dian, Fatty and Rookie, which basically represent the top players in the Chinese game area. Strong strength. Naturally, no one had any objections. Zheng Dian was in a special situation. He wanted to stand up and speak several times, but Shao Yang glared back.
Zheng Dian understands what he means. With his influence, if he gives up at this time, it will definitely have a great impact on the morale of the entire Huaxia District. So in the end, he gave up the plan of raising it on the spot and planned to talk to Master Shao privately after they were gone.
??We discussed the names one by one, and soon passed the list smoothly. When Master Shao was about to move on to the next topic, a voice suddenly came from the corner:
"Master Shao, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."
Master Shao was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled and said: "Everyone should be honest and honest. As long as it is useful for our competition, there is nothing inappropriate to say."
A man as thin as a javelin slowly stood up from his seat.
"Jiang Ke" Xiaoxue recognized him at a glance and thought about what Jiang was going to do.
"Master Shao, this matter makes me very conflicted. On the one hand, it is related to the reputation of a god-level player, and on the other hand, it is related to the results of this game. I hesitated for a long time, and decided to speak out." As he said, Then Jiang Ke walked out of his seat, walked to the console and stirred twice, and a piece of player attribute information was displayed on the screen.
When they saw the player name displayed on the information clearly, everyone was in an uproar.
This information belongs to no one else, it is the attribute information of the Arrow God. Seeing the gray unavailable status on the properties panel, everyone looked at Zheng Dian a little strangely.
Li Yuan became angry as soon as he saw it. He had known about Zheng Dian's current situation for a long time, but this Jiang Ke exposed this matter in front of so many people, which was tantamount to trapping Zheng Dian in injustice. He directly said that he was seeking fame and reputation regardless of the interests of the country, and his face fell on the spot. He came to stand up and speak, but the fat man pushed him down on his seat and told him to calm down.
Master Shao, Uncle Youxue and other members of Tianxia Mingyue all looked at Zheng Dian inquiringly, and Zheng Dian nodded with a wry smile.
¡°The Arrow God disappeared from the game some time ago, and no one can find his name in the official rankings, because the Arrow God has had such records several times, and everyone is used to it, and as time goes by, they don¡¯t pay much attention to this matter. But a few days ago, I accidentally found this information at the bottom of the official rankings. I was very surprised, but I didn't say anything because it related to the interests of a god-level player. But today I saw the name of the God of Arrow ranked high First place, Shao Da??I have been repeatedly stressed about being public-minded, which makes me feel like I have a lump in my throat and I don't know what to do. I thought that the Arrow God, who has always been upright and upright, would take the initiative to explain this matter. I don¡¯t need to say anything. Look at what happened.¡±
"Mom, you feel like you have a lump in your throat. It's strange that you don't know what to do." The fat man cursed secretly. Zheng Dian used the corner of his eyes to see the calm look on Jiang Zhengxiang's face next to him, and found that he was staring at Xiaoxue sitting not far away and smiling, and an inexplicable anger suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart.
Everyone fell into silence. For a while, Master Shao didn¡¯t know what to say. He knew that he was actually responsible for this matter. Zheng Dian wanted to speak several times just now, but he stopped him every time. He knew that Zheng Dian didn't like to join in the fun, and he was afraid that he would say something that would affect the overall situation, but he didn't expect that he would be so passive in the end.
Zheng Dian knew that what he said at this moment was meaningless, and he did not want to explain this matter. But for some reason, when he knew that the person who exposed him was Jiang, he felt a more sincere desire.
"This brother is very attentive and his eyes are attentive, which is admirable. This matter is my secret. I don't want to say anything more. If you can trust me, I will bite the bullet and play this game; if you can't, There are many experts in the Huaxia District, and missing one of them will not affect the overall situation."
"I can trust you."
Everyone was surprised because it was Duan Chengxing, the head of Duan's enterprise, who spoke.
"Strength is important in the Arrow God's battle, but in the end it is his grasp of the battle situation and his planning of the battle that determines the outcome. I believe everyone can still think of the battle in the City of Rage, and the recent one on the Oracle Highlands. Let¡¯s have a big fight.¡±
When everyone heard it, they felt it made sense.
"I can trust you too."
Hearing this voice, everyone was even more surprised. This was the boss of the Dragon Slaying Studio who couldn't even compete with the God of Arrow.
"I trust the God of Arrow, there is no reason. Because he has never let me down."
" Two big guys who can make the gaming world tremble by just stomping their feet are actually willing to speak for the Arrow God at a time like this. Some players who were already suspicious of the Arrow God began to be a little undecided. To jump out to support the God of Arrow at this time is a big responsibility. Once the God of Arrow does not do well in the competition and does not get good results, the two of them will have to become the target of everyone's rebuke with him.
Zheng Dian cast a grateful look at them. Li Yuan originally wanted to express his support for Zheng Dian, but now that their relationship is well known and they have become a family, his words have less weight.
"How about I say a few words?" The speaker was Wei Yuan, the head of the Wei Group who had remained silent. "Although I invest in games, I don't know much about them. I only know the name of the Arrow God that everyone unanimously admires. Since Brother Duan and Brother Liu just mentioned that the Arrow God's greatest strength is his ability to control the battle situation. Grasp and plan, we can let him help the participants to give ideas and act as a consultant. This will not affect the strength of the participating teams, but can also give full play to the expertise of the God of Arrow, isn't it the best of both worlds?"
Zheng Dian smiled, this Wei Yuan is not simple, he can grasp the key points as soon as he speaks, and his position as a staff officer can block all the openings. It was probably Jiang Zhengxiang who invited him to help. It seems that the Jiang family and the Wei family have reached some agreement. He thought about the fact that he was going to the Shenyin Wilderness soon. As a big family in the capital, the Wei family would only be stronger than Tulong in the Shenyinye Wilderness. It seemed that there would be more variables then.
When everyone heard this proposal, they felt that it was the most appropriate, and most of them agreed with it. Master Shao's expression also improved slightly. Li Yuan wanted to speak several times, but in the end he shook his head and endured it. He knew that this was indeed the case, and it would be useless to say it himself.
"Puch." For some reason, the fat man suddenly burst out laughing. .
