Chapter 639.run ahead
"As far as I know, e-sports and ieSF in South Korea are working together to communicate with their sports bureau, and submit the proposal to apply for the Asian Games in the Asian Olympic Committee meeting in a few days! "

Poisonous Milky Eyebrows beamed at the words: "That's great! If South Korea submits the proposal, our StarCraft and Warcraft projects will definitely be included in the Asian Games project!"

Although South Korea is a small country internationally, it is a big country in e-sports.

StarCraft and Warcraft have become South Korea's national skills, especially the StarCraft project, and now South Korea is crushing the world!
Under this premise, if South Korea is to submit a proposal to include e-sports in the Asian Games, the StarCraft project will definitely be put on the agenda!

"That's good!" Brother Gaizi nodded aside, and then smiled bitterly, "My side is not as lucky as you! When the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta starts, my Warcraft 3 is an old game that is more than ten years old, no matter in terms of the number of players or influence, there is no way to compete with other games for this Jakarta Asian Games! Hey!"

Warcraft 3 is a real-time strategy game released by Blizzard in July 2002. Its influence does not need to be described too much, and everyone knows it.

To put it simply, whether it is DOTA, DOTA2, or League of Legends, Dream Three Kingdoms and other MOBA games on the market, they must be called Warcraft 3 as the ancestor!
It can be said that without Warcraft 3, there would be no MOBA games!

The earliest DOTA was just a custom map made by EULS, a game fan of Warcraft 3, using the map editor of Warcraft.

As for the various games derived from DOTA later, even the League of Legends, which is the closest relative, has to be called Warcraft 3 as a grandpa in terms of blood.

And it's my grandpa!

But now, as a grandpa, Warcraft 3 has aged. The former Warcraft 3 champion Gai Zige saw that his youth could not realize his dream of the Asian Games, so naturally he felt sad.

"Aiya! What's the matter!" Hearing the words, the poisonous milk color laughed endlessly, "Brother Gaizi, even if you are allowed to play now, can you still play like the former emperor? We all have to obey the old man! "

Brother Gaizi blushed: "Why are you old? You call Moon over now and sit opposite me! Do you think I can beat him to death?!"

"Hahahaha!"

In front of these two seniors, it was difficult for Jiang Bufan to break into the topic, so he could only apologize, and waited for the two of them to finish laughing before Jiang Bufan continued: "Of course, in this regard, I still think that we in the e-sports circle We should be more united! For the entry of e-sports into the Asian Games this time, it is not enough to rely solely on the Koreans, we also need to do our part!"

"Contribute? What can we do?"

Poison milk color and brother Gaizi both asked questions at the same time.

Jiang Bufan laughed: "That's why I asked Mr. Wu Yibo to invite you two to our team today!"

………………

A few days later, a promotional video produced by Penguin E-sports quietly came out.

"Huh? What is this? Promo?"

Clicking on the League of Legends client, Li Xiaobai was about to make a big splash in the game, but he saw a few big words on the homepage of the League of Legends client at a glance: For the dream, for the future
Recalling the end of 2013, that is, the promotional video of the Royal Family winning the S3 global finals a year ago, Li Xiaobai suddenly became interested: "Ah, is this the promotional video of the XG team! Watch it A wave!"

With that in mind, Li Xiaobai clicked on the promotional video.

"Where is the world full of flowers?"

A burst of absurd tunes came into Li Xiaobai's earphones. Li Xiaobai tilted his head and frowned in discomfort: "What song is this? How weird?"

At the same time, several yellowed black and white photos began to flash quickly on the screen.

In 1946, the world's first computer "Eniac" was born.

In 1950, the world's first computer game "Bertie the Brain" was born.

"What is this?" Li Xiaobai was dumbfounded, "I'm here to watch the championship promotional video, why do you keep showing me these things? I'm not interested in this!"

As if knowing that Li Xiaobai's patience had run out, the time on the screen began to speed up, and the pictures flashed rapidly, and then, as time approached the new millennium, the picture speed began to slow down again.

In 1995, Blizzard launched the RTS game "Warcraft".

In 1999, Valve launched the FPS game "Counter-Strike".

In 2005, "DOTA" was born.

After arriving here, Li Xiaobai was already familiar with the names of these games. He guessed: "Oh, is this a review of the history of game development? And then show that "League of Legends" is the most popular?"

But Li Xiaobai was wrong.

A figure suddenly appeared in front of Li Xiaobai.

"wNv? Sprinkle bitterness?"

A young man with a sallow complexion and long hair was holding a cup of bubbles and smiling innocently at the camera.

Subtitle below: wNv.GM, Champion of WEG Season [-] CS World Finals.

"That was in 2005! Back then! Nine years ago!"

The screen changed again, and the young man with a sallow complexion and a vicissitudes of life appeared in front of the camera.

"I suddenly won the championship! Hahaha! No one thought of it!"

"Later, after winning the championship, the team leader was also very happy! He sent 3000 yuan to each of us directly!"

"Later, there was no later!" Speaking of this, he smiled, "After that, there was no salary anymore. The team leader left, and the teammates left. I couldn't hold on alone."

"The one who should go home, the one who should find the way out, what else can I do? I can't continue playing games, right? My parents are getting old, and I'm the only child in my family. I'm floating outside. After so many years, there must be someone in the family to take care of the old man, right?"

"I have to make money, I have to support my family!"

"What's the use of playing the game well?"

Hearing this, Li Xiaobai was suddenly at a loss for words, and a sour feeling came to his heart.

The screen changes again.

A character began to appear on the screen.

Brother Gai.

Poisonous milk color.

……

Too many people.

Everyone only has a few words.

But the few words of these people portrayed for Li Xiaobai the blood and tears of that generation of e-sports players when e-sports began to take root in China at the beginning of the new millennium.

The family didn't understand.

Can't afford to eat.

No future.

confused.

What supports them to continue exploring in the fog ahead is only the vague dream in their hearts.

The music sounded at the right time: "But I am willing to keep exploring and devote all my youth without regrets!"

"run ahead!"

"With the pride of a child!"

2013 years.

Team Royal won the trophy in Los Angeles, USA.

2014 years.

The NB team won the cup in Seattle, USA.

In the same year, the XG team won the cup in Seoul, South Korea.

"Run forward to meet cold eyes and jeers

How can you feel the vastness of life without going through hardships?
Fate can't make us kneel and beg for mercy
Even if the blood is all over the arms"

At some point, Li Xiaobai burst into tears.
