matchstick heaven

On the night of the Eagles game, Zhou Chenshan stayed in the office to work overtime and listened to the entire game with headphones.

He didn't have time to watch the pictures on the field, but heard the commentators say that the Hawks' lineup "just doesn't want to win" and that Shen Qing's BP this time was "out of standard".

There was also a lot of scolding on the forum after the game, which was extremely ironic when compared with the overwhelming touts a few years ago.

"SQ is sick again."

"Would anyone really think that BP was made by the head coach alone? Couldn't this one be sick in turn?"

"Why did Jess not grab it when he released it? Isn't SQ the only one who doesn't know the version answer?"

"What if Papo can't [doge]"

"The coach doesn't trust his players, he dare not pick Jess in one hand, the BP is completely blown, and the loss is not unfair."

"Just to ask you: When Papo and Black Tea were in normal form years ago, could you win with this lineup? Blame the coach for the classic loss."

"Have you started washing? People like SQ also have fans?"

"Tell a joke: No championship in 6 years, the best coach."

"The LPL champion was eaten by you?"

Zhou Chenshan closed the page, and couldn't help rubbing the space between his eyebrows.He didn't understand that Shen Qing was not idle during the vacation. He studied the new version for 2 days, and went back to practice with the whole team for another 3 days. Why was he beaten so badly when he first came up.If the opponent is strong, it doesn't seem to count. The opponent is only a mid-to-upper team, but they beat the Eagles, who were second in the rankings a year ago, to no avail.

He sent a message to Shen Qing: "Are you okay?"

But Shen Qing didn't reply.

Zhou Chenshan returned to his villa, it was as quiet as ever, the servant had already gone back, and left a row of lights in front of the door for him before leaving, and a decorative light was lit in the living room, but the empty night still shrouded every area .

He took out his phone and checked again, but there was still no news.

Zhou Chenshan returned to the study habitually, sat in that comfortable chair, turned on the computer and continued working.

what is he doingAre you still replaying?

It must be hard to lose so badly...

Who will hit next?did you win?

——Zhou Chenshan found himself unable to concentrate.

This is something that has never happened before.He has always been very focused, not only from his grandfather's education from childhood to adulthood, but also Zhou Chenshan's consistent style.But it seems that starting from this marriage led by interests, his life path has gone a little bit off.

Perhaps the moment when he went astray was earlier than he expected.

Zhou Chenshan recalled seeing Shen Qing and Zhang Renmin arguing through the glass door in Eagle's office on Loushanguan Road.He saw that pretty face was full of anger, his eyes were so firm and rebellious, and his mouth was unforgiving. One second he slapped the table hard, and the next second he stretched out his finger and questioned his boss loudly.

He saw Shen Qing's expression when he couldn't persuade Zhang Renmin to keep the team, the expression of gritting his teeth and pale face when he turned his back, the helplessness and loneliness that appeared all over his body...

Then he asked the people around him who this was and what he wanted.

Zhou Chenshan looked at the computer screen, but couldn't see anything. He just realized an important thing.

Maybe I deviated from the course from the very beginning.

"Om-"

There was a vibration on the phone, and Zhou Chenshan took it over to look. It was not a new news reminder, but a reminder of the launch of Luna.

He clicked into the live broadcast room.

The barrage was going fast, some were criticizing, some were comforting, and some were following the rhythm.

Shen Qing could not be seen in the live broadcast room, but he could hear the voice from the background sound. It seemed that the atmosphere of the whole team was fine and not very dignified.However, the barrages in the Luna studio that questioned the game BP and the performance of the players were still dealt with by the room management.

He rewarded Luna with a round of gifts, and soon jumped to the top of the weekly list.

At this time, Shen Qing finally sent a message: "Are you watching the live broadcast again?"

Zhou Chenshan said: "Seeing that you are in good condition, it didn't affect your mentality too much today, right?"

"It's okay now, much better than when we returned to the base."

Zhou Chenshan took a screenshot of the list and sent it.

"Give you more support."

Shen Qing sent an emoji of a kitten who seemed to have no love in life.

"This is too ironic."

"Ah? Will you recruit gangsters?" Zhou Chenshan immediately felt that what he did was inappropriate.

Shen Qing replied: "It's okay, it doesn't matter, just send it if you want."

Then he added another sentence: "If you lose public opinion, it won't look good no matter what."

He knows that the team members are eager for the audience to give more points in the live broadcast room, especially the players like Luna who have been playing professionally for a long time. That way you will care about the ID on the fan list and hot comments.

It's just that after losing the first game after the year, there is indeed a problem with the BP. It always feels a bit embarrassing to have the words cheering for him on the page.

Zhou Chenshan still didn't send it any further.

"Originally, I also wanted to reward your team during the game, but I was too busy at that time."

"That money means nothing."

"what?"

"You tipped us and we won't get a point. Next time, use less."

"Oh..." Zhou Chenshan knew for the first time that the contestants would not get the tipping money, and instantly felt a little regretful, "I gave it away for nothing before."

Shen Qing sent a snickering emoji of a dog.

"It's okay, it looks more face-saving, and it's pretty good."

The chat box was quiet for a while.

Zhou Chenshan asked: "Didn't you start researching the new version very early? I think you have played several Jess yourself, why didn't you choose it in the competition?"

Shen Qing replied: "Pan Luping hasn't practiced yet, his proficiency is not enough, and he didn't play well in the training match."

"But it's a shame not to choose, and you will still be scolded by the audience."

"If you are not proficient, if you are crushed miserably, the psychological pressure on the players will be even greater, especially Pan Luping himself is also the kind of person who will put a lot of pressure on himself. If he has not practiced, he must not be selected for him."

"Oh."

Zhou Chenshan posted another sentence: "I just see people say that your BP is not good, and they don't know the specific situation in the team. It's uncomfortable to see them say that."

Shen Qing replied: "It's okay, professional games are like this, it doesn't matter."

He added: "Just win it back next time."

"Well, come on, you guys."

Shen Qing typed for a long time, and after a while, a message came: "Pan Luping is not young, he is definitely not as fast as young people in adapting to the version and training heroes, but he is working hard, you can give him more time. "

"Ah."

"Let's play 2 more games at most, and then we can practice. There is no rush."

"Okay, I trust your judgment."

Shen Qing fell silent again.Zhou Chenshan waited for a while, then sent another message after deliberation.

"Your goal this season is to win the S Championship. It's fine in the Spring Split, just do your best."

Shen Qing said: "You can't say that. No one has won the Grand Slam in the same year. I want to win the Grand Slam every year."

"What is a Grand Slam?"

"...Just a few major competitions are counted. The LPL regular season, MSI, and S games all won championships."

"No one has achieved it yet?"

"I haven't done it in the same year, so it's very challenging. And the points in the spring split are also very important. I don't know what kind of version the summer split will be. If you can get more points now, you can't give them away."

"Oh! Then come on!"

Zhou Chenshan originally wanted to say something to comfort Shen Qinggang after he lost the game, but now he realizes that encouragement may be more important than consolation at this time.Because Shen Qing has never been the kind of person who accepts defeat easily, he longs for the championship so strongly, if he misses it, it must be difficult to forgive himself easily.

Zhou Chenshan thought for a while, and replied: "Then I will try to make KUP the world's number one toy brand first, and then you will also achieve good results. I will inject [-] million yuan into you to help you win the Grand Slam."

"...Let me borrow your good words."

Zhou Chenshan looked at the speechless and helpless "I borrow your good words", smiled, sent Shen Qing a cool emoji, and put away the phone.

The speed of the barrage in the live broadcast room slowed down, and most of them were in Shen Qing's rhythm.

There is no way, Shen Qing's black history is there, once the team loses the game, he will definitely be brought out, and this time the BP will be blamed for the loss.

Fortunately, from the camera, it seemed that the players were not too affected. Everyone was discussing several new equipment changes in a relaxed atmosphere, and some were talking about the teammates and opponents that Rank met.

Four days later in the match, facing the opponent's choice of weapon, Shen Qing still didn't choose Jess for Pan Luping, Eagle still lost, and was still scolded overwhelmingly after the match.

After losing the game this time, everyone returned to the base, and everyone remained silent.

Zhang Renmin came along with him, looked at everyone's disappointed expressions, and knew that this was not going to work.

He thought for a while, and said, "Everyone has worked hard recently, let's give everyone a half-day vacation, and we will accept the vacation at 17:00 tomorrow night, okay?"

Quiet for a while.

Then little F started to laugh: "Hey."

The atmosphere suddenly became active.

"Want to eat Haidilao?"

"Now?"

"Yes, let's go!"

"Wait for me to go to the bathroom!"

Zhang Renmin looked at everyone with a smile, then pulled Shen Qing aside and whispered: "Now the main problem is the top hero pool, don't be in a hurry, the next game is 5 days away, you should also take a little vacation for yourself. "

"Oh, I see."

Shen Qing knew in his heart that his own mentality was not good today, and if this continued, it would affect the team members.

He has to adjust first, and then lead the team.

"I won't eat with everyone." Shen Qing said to the team members.

"what?"

"Ah~ Coach~"

"You guys go, I'm going to relax too."

BlackTea joked: "Oh~ Coach Shen is going to find Wenrouxiang~"

Pan Luping on the side almost spit out a mouthful of water.

Shen Qing gave him a middle finger helplessly: "Don't do it, eat your Haidilao."

Speaking of Haidilao, several young people began to prepare to go out again, and chatted about the mistakes made in the game just now.

Shen Qing watched everyone pack up their backpacks and leave, thinking of similar scenes many times in their minds.He was always watching player after player leave, sometimes himself.Every time it is regarded as an honor, but it also leaves regrets every time.

He looked at it for a while, then took out his phone and sent Zhou Chenshan a message.

"Are you free? I want to have a midnight snack."

Half a minute later, Zhou Chenshan replied, "I'm coming."
