Chapter 441 Plan ahead
Lin Shun's idea of retiring was not a temporary idea.
When playing VR games in the past, although the mechanics of different games are different, the core quality requirements are similar.
The club can use a very streamlined team to participate in as many competitions as possible.
Of course, this also puts forward higher requirements for the quality of professional players. Each of the club's main players is very important.
This is why Lin Shun was able to earn so much money at such a young age to pay off his family's debts.
Up to now, the game market is developing explosively. His professional team has also won the first national virtual reality game championship. It can be said that it has once again seized a key opportunity.
Takeoff is just around the corner!
Compared with many professional players, because of the lack of physical talent, his performance in the just-concluded game was mediocre, and he fell into a passive retirement crisis. His situation is already too good.
Seize the opportunity, take advantage of the wind, and increase your income tenfold.
However, Lin Shun couldn't help but ask himself: Is this what I want to earn more money?
Ordinary people of this age probably seldom think about this issue.
But because the family fell into debt, Lin Shun stood up and took responsibility. From a rookie professional player, he grew into a star player with many fans and fans, and paid off the debt for the family.
What he saw and experienced far exceeded that of ordinary peers, and his thinking was more mature than that of his peers.
This allows him to calm down and think when faced with huge opportunities: What do I really want?
money?
of course not.
The money is only for family needs, and the purpose is to pay off debts.
And the debts have been paid off long ago, and even a lot of family assets have been saved again.
The national competition of "League of Assassins" this time has greatly enriched this part of the family.
——The money he got personally even exceeded the bonus that Yunmeng set for the championship team.
Even though the bonus amount set by Yunmeng is already the highest amount in domestic game competitions, it is still less than the money given by the sponsors.
Especially as a star player, he also has several personal sponsors.
The turbulent waves caused by Yunmeng have undoubtedly affected countless brand owners, and these brand owners who have invested money in the e-sports field feel the strongest.
Before Yunmeng, e-sports events have always existed, because the user group is relatively accurate and the advertising effect is also good.
But Yunmeng's competition raised the heat to an unprecedented level.
Even though the popularity failed to maintain the growth momentum due to the release of new games in the second half, the number of viewers who have stabilized is still amazing.
Although in this way, the portrait of the user group is not so accurate, but the strong scale effect completely makes up for this.
Compared with the amazing exposure brought by the contestants, the sponsorship and endorsement fees they paid are too cheap!
Of course, this is the wave of good things.
After that, many clubs with good results should start to reconsider their offers.
Because the big brands that can afford higher quotations have also been eyeing this enthusiasm, and they are eager to join in and get a piece of the cake.
Even while cooperating with Yunmeng and opening a store in the virtual world, they also have to place bets on e-sports events, a two-pronged approach.
This is also the direct cause of professional players' worth being pushed higher and higher.
Old sponsors raised their prices, new sponsors emerged, and live broadcast platform contracts were reconsidered. All kinds of things would more or less appear before the eyes of professional players without having to understand them themselves.
The prosperity of the e-sports industry seems to be within sight, and all e-sports clubs feel rejoiced.
But when it comes to professional players, the feeling is twofold.
Because of this prosperity, not all professional players can enjoy it.
This prosperity, this hot money, will only pour into fields related to virtual reality games.
If you can't show enough strength in the virtual reality game, you are destined to fall behind.
It may not be eliminated, after all, the previous events, whether it is PC, console, or VR, still exist.
It's just that this prosperity and enthusiasm is destined to be missed.
You even have to worry about whether you will be given up by the club in the future.
But there is no way around it. The e-sports industry is a place where geniuses gather.
It's just that now, the quality requirements for "geniuses" have undergone some changes.
——Although until now, everyone has not figured out what qualities virtual reality games really need most.
But it doesn't matter, as long as you play a few games, the outcome will never lie.
In the past, everyone didn’t fully understand what the quality of VR games is—not just physical fitness and mentality. The top VR game professional players’ physical fitness is still far behind that of professional athletes.
But this has not prevented the clubs from finding the most talented players.
——Because the winning percentage can prove everything.
Lin Shun belongs to the lucky part. When the game carrier changes, he still meets the needs of the new game form.
However, at this juncture, he hesitated.
Because in front of him, there is a completely different choice——
Now retired, back to school.
Go back to the path you gave up on.
Money will indeed be much less, but money is never the goal, what to do with the money is the goal.
Because of his loving parents and happy family since he was a child, even debts have not changed this.
So his goal in life is to be like his parents: start a family with an excellent girl, raise eyebrows, live a happy life and so on.
It would be even better if this girl was a splash...
And in this silly child's mind, if his education level can't keep up, if he can go to Splash University and graduate school all the way in the future, and he still has a high school degree, then the prospects between them... I'm afraid they won't be too optimistic.
In the heart of a 17-year-old young man, love is really more important than future.
It's just that he hasn't told anyone about this yet, he just said that he misses school.
But this reason is completely enough for parents.
In terms of policy, Daxia's protection of minors allowed him to ignore the club's opinions and forcefully return to school.
But the price is: you can never return to this industry in the future.
Of course Lin Shun was not so extreme, but having said that, he was a minor when he signed the contract, and he could only sign as an adult.
It's only a few months before the contract expires...
After getting this news, Burning Boat Club, the manager, coach, and big boss couldn't hold back anymore.
They are still drawing up Lin Shun's new contract, and the salary is almost full, and then they heard that Lin Shun wants to retire?
They even had to think, did they really want to retire, or just find a reason, turn around and come back to another club after the contract was terminated?
The coach said: "Lin Shun is not such a person."
However, the manager feels that with the current fierce competition in the industry, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be misled by someone with a heart.
The big boss doesn't care if these are available or not, just say: "Keep people here."
All the clubs in the industry are looking forward to Yunmeng's second large-scale national competition. At this juncture, one of the main players must not be lost, and his mentality must not be affected too much.
so……
"solve quickly!"
The big boss left only a few instructions before leaving, leaving the management level to look at each other.
...
...
Early the next morning, at the morning meeting of the Burning Boat Club, the manager came up with a proposal——
[Academic Care Program for E-sports Professional Players]
Leaving aside those reasons forcibly finding the facade to decorate, the core content is only one point:
Professional players in the field of virtual reality games are allowed to complete their studies normally during the day, and their training is changed to the evening.
You can even take time off during exam week! I have nothing to say sweetly.
But there is one thing, this plan is an application system.
Players apply, the club reviews, and it can only be implemented after the review is passed.
As for the conditions for passing?
we'll talk about it then.
"Let's discuss whether this plan can work."

At the same time, a video quickly circulated on social networks.
It was an off-road motorcycle found by a team of players riding a supply point. When they were speeding through Dinosaur Island, they suddenly saw a person, so they rushed over quickly to exchange information.
But when the man turned around, it was Lin You!
This team of players stopped their motorcycles and ran over excitedly: "Lin You!!"
"Ah?" Lin You was a little surprised, "Why are you so fast? Forget it, wait a moment."
After speaking, Lin You directly set up supply points in front of the team.
A set of the most common supply point models was taken out of the panel by him, enlarged, fine-tuned, and finally sunk into the ground to modify the terrain.
The total amount of front and back is only ten seconds.
"Are you... haven't finished yet?" A player blinked and asked a little uncertainly.
Lin You patted the non-existent ash on his hands, not wanting to admit it.
After thinking about it, he suddenly stepped forward, stood among these players, and raised a camera to take three consecutive shots.
"Send you a few group photos, pretend you didn't see me today, okay?"
"So, have fun!"
Before the players could say anything, Lin You quickly completed the series of tasks, then slipped away and disappeared from the scene.
In the camera, only the faces of those players were left with question marks.
"No, who cares about your group photo? Hey!!" The player who spoke first was speechless.
"No! What about a group photo?? You took a photo with your own camera, and you said you gave it to us??" Another player was even more speechless.
Just as he was complaining, a few materialized photos suddenly flew out of the camera and stopped in front of several players.
"..."
Several people were silent for a few seconds, looked around, and the camera followed suit.
"Lin You? Boss Lin? Are you still peeping around?"
But no one could answer their questions, and there was no movement around.
A few people could only pick up the photo silently, and the video ended accordingly.
This short video has generated a lot of discussion.
The key point of everyone's discussion is not Lin You's "caught for not finishing the game", or his childish behavior of trying to muddle through.
The points that everyone pays attention to are all in the section where Lin You made the supply point on the spot.
This is the first time for netizens to see Lin You playing games on the spot.
And this kind of production process is completely different from what they imagined!
There is no computer, no code, and nothing complicated, just take out a model, zoom in, adjust the position of the things inside, and put it into the game map.
Finish the job.
Netizens are stunned——
"So it's a game like this?!"
"It's no wonder Yunmeng makes games so fast! A month can surpass other people's production capacity for a year!"
"I feel like I can do it too!"
"With this technology and so many people, it took more than two months to release a game?! Wouldn't your conscience hurt?!"
"That's right! Quickly bring up the new game!!"
...
"Of course my conscience won't ache..." Lin You shook his head and closed the comment section.
However, he still sent a message to Fan Rui and Shen Ping to advance the plan and find something for the players to do.
After sending the message, Lin You put down his phone and went downstairs to the laboratory.
The materials and equipment are all ready, but it was only delayed for two days because of the matter of Dinosaur Island, and now we can finally start.
Goal: One week later, fly a biplane propeller fighter jet live!
