Superstars of Tomorrow

Now that they have signed with Silver Wing, they can no longer post their status on social platforms at will, but the same status of the eight people is allowed.

Silver Wing did not immediately disclose who the ID "Live another 500 years" is. According to the person in charge of publicity and operation, for those media, they will continue to pay attention to them if you hang them. Therefore, now Silver Wing They intend to only release the news of the signing of these eight people. As for the biggest boss-level ID, they will hide it first. But they didn't intend to completely hide it. Look, the news about the eight people was to tell the public the truth, but no one would think about it.

Although the "Silver Wing 50 Aurora" project is a cooperative project between the virtual department and the game department, the virtual department holds the decision-making power. The main decision maker is the virtual department, and the game department only plays an auxiliary role. After all, the team has to Fang Zhao belt. The "Silver Wing 50 Aurora" e-sports project, like the Aurora project team, belongs to the virtual department.

The "boss" mentioned in the status of the eight people actually refers to: the boss of the entire virtual department who holds absolute decision-making power, is to "live another five hundred years."

In this way, even if someone asks why Silver Wing has kept it a secret, Silver Wing can also respond: It’s not that we didn’t tell you, in fact, we told you a long time ago, it’s just that you didn’t understand.

According to common sense, no one really thinks about that. For example, the management method of the club, the manager is the manager, the e-sports player is the e-sports player, and the captain of the main team is also the e-sports player, not the manager of the company or the project team. Therefore, when the general public saw the words uttered by the eight people, they would only think that what the eight people said was just "live another five hundred years" and that they were the boss and captain of the team.

Even if someone guessed the truth, it was just a joke, not serious.

The press conference was held in the venue of the Silver Wing Building. Fang Zhao was dressed in the uniform of a company manager. His young face had no scars from the game. Completely restrained, the whole person looks much gentler and more refined.

When the eight people preparing for the backstage saw Fang Zhao, they all twitched their mouths.

The big Mi Lu whispered, "A beast in clothes!"

"Don't talk nonsense, this word is not used like this." Qin Jiulou said. However, he understood what Mi Lu wanted to express. Mi Lu wanted to say that Fang Zhao looked like a ferocious beast in human skin. He also agrees with Mi Lu's idea. Fang Zhao is too different in reality and in the game. It's no wonder that they all doubted it before. Even if the age factor is put aside, anyone would doubt it, but it's hard to believe it.

"There are so many people in the venue!" Sosager said nervously when he glanced at the venue just now, then retracted again.

The eight people here, except for Sosager, have long been used to this kind of occasion. They are not as nervous as Sosager, and they are still calm.

Qin Jiulou's mood is more complicated. He has bid farewell to the professional circle for eight years. During the eight years, he acted in a low-key manner. He no longer used his commonly used IDs. He only used temporary numbers or vest numbers. He had never encountered such a situation in eight years. This kind of occasion that attracts everyone's attention, once again experiencing such an occasion, reminded him of things that happened a long time ago.

"Get ready, it's time to play." A staff member reminded them.

In the venue, the media from all over the world gathered here, observing the words and deeds of everyone on the stage, thinking about how to catch the news.

Sitting next to Qian Cheng, editor-in-chief of "Liaoyuan Huo", is a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looks decent, but there are many entertainment reporters who are more decent than him, and there is nothing special about his appearance. , you won't be impressed even after a few glances.

After the press conference started, Qian Cheng whispered a few words to him from time to time, and sent messages directly if it was not convenient to talk.

This person is not from "Liaoyuanhuo", but today he was brought in by Qian Cheng as an employee of "Liaoyuanhuo" to help. This person has put on a disguise and is not what he is.

He is Wang Die, who is well-known in the circle as "the strongest paparazzi in Yanzhou". No one knows what he really looks like, but everyone in the circle knows that there is no news that he can't dig out, only the price you can't afford. It is said that its "sense of smell" is not inferior to that of the grave guards in the martyrs' cemetery.

This time, Qian Cheng spent a lot of money to ask this person to come and help, just to let him help find the real person who "lives another five hundred years".

"Did you find anything?" Qian Cheng leaned over and asked in a low voice.

Wang Die stared at the person who was speaking on the stage, and raised his finger, "Who is this guy from? Fang Zhao, the manager of the virtual department? How much do you know about this person?"

"You mean Fang Zhao? This kid is very capable. Silver Wing's virtual project department came alive in his hands. The most surprising thing is that his major is composition. He is well-known in the field of composition and is good at symphonic structures." Feng, he has published a book with the master Xue Jing, the sales volume is very good, and he has given lectures around the world. What, he has a problem?" Qian Cheng asked in surprise.

Wang Die shook his head, "The composer? An artist? That's no wonder."

Fang Zhao gave him a very strange feeling, but thinking that the other party was a composer, Wang Die was relieved. People who engage in art are different from ordinary people, so it is not surprising that they have such a weird feeling.

Seeing Wang Die shaking his head, Qian Cheng sighed, so he just said, how could Fang Zhao "live another five hundred years".

After Fang Zhao finished his lines, he retreated to the backstage, Qin Jiulou and other eight people took the stage and took their seats.

"Until now, no one doubted anyone who appeared on the stage?" Qian Cheng looked away from the stage and asked unwillingly.

Wang Die frowned, and his eyes were still fixed on the people on the stage who were taking questions from reporters, including the eight protagonists who had signed with Silver Wing today, as well as the manager and staff of Silver Wing, and none of them were missed. Every time Wang Die looked at the stage, he had a very strange feeling, as if he could touch the truth with his hand, but his eyes were covered with a layer of fog, making it impossible to see clearly. This kind of contradictory feeling was rarely encountered.

There are weird! There's definitely something quirky about it!

But where is the negligence?

Seeing Wang Die's brows furrowed tightly, Qian Cheng knew that Wang Die was encountering a problem. Seeing that he didn't respond, he didn't ask questions. He just paid attention to Wang Die's reaction and observed the subtle expressions on Wang Die's face.

On the stage, Sosager usually looks very lively, but when he is actually sitting on the stage and being stared at by hundreds of reporters, he feels uncomfortable. Fortunately, there are relatively few words for him, and he does not need to come forward to answer questions , with Qin Jiulou and Tong Yang, two veterans, the others are much more relaxed. Besides, among the eight people today, the focus of the reporters is on Qin Jiulou and Tong Yang, two people from the top five e-sports giants. body, the task of others is much easier. Sosager, the lightest of the eight, is only responsible for smiling.

The reporters also raised a lot of sharp questions, but they were all blocked by the veteran Qin Jiulou. When a reporter directly asked, "Who is ''Live another five hundred years', and is he there?" Qin Jiulou did not answer directly this time, but, like the other seven people, showed a complex and meaningful smile to the reporter who asked the question.

The reaction of the eight people in Qin Jiulou made the reporter think that he just asked a super stupid question, and after sitting down, he turned the question he had just asked several times in his mind, but he still didn't find that the question was meaningful. What is strange, is it because the question is too direct?

"Did I just say something wrong?" the reporter asked his colleague.

"That's right... right?" The colleague was also not sure, because the reactions of the eight people in Qin Jiulou were really confusing.

Wayne came out to answer this question, and his reply was very simple, "As for who the 'live another five hundred years' is, we will keep it a secret for the time being."

want to know huh? If you want to know, check it yourself, anyway, I just won’t tell you! scold me? Scold me and I won't tell you!

Wayne likes to see reporters jumping their feet in anger but helpless.

The reporter at the scene asked about Qin Jiulou's experience in the past eight years, asked Tong Yang why he chose Silver Wing, and asked other people various questions. Seeing that there were a lot of revelations, Qian Cheng, who was sitting at the venue, was not happy at all. , He was not interested in knowing those questions at all. Seeing the time passing by, Wang Die hadn't found the answer to the question he wanted to know the most.

"No progress yet?" Qian Cheng asked again.

Wang Die paused, but still shook his head. Even if he intuitively felt that he was only one step away from the truth, he just couldn't grasp the key factor of that weirdness, so he couldn't give Qian Cheng an affirmative answer.

Qian Cheng was very disappointed, "Then maybe 'Live another five hundred years' didn't come today."

"No, I think 'Live for another five hundred years' is likely to be on the scene. Have you noticed that they were a little nervous when answering several questions about 'Live for another five hundred years'? Especially the black mage Milu, He is more rational than Suo Sag, a brainless fan, and not as rigorous as Qin Jiulou and the others. His reaction is the most authentic and worthy of observation and scrutiny."

"Is he afraid?" Qian Cheng asked.

"To be more precise, he is afraid, he is worried about saying the wrong thing. It's not because the atmosphere in the venue is tense, but because he is afraid of someone present! So I guess, the person you are looking for is here!" Suddenly Wang Die His words paused, and he looked towards a place diagonally above.

"What's wrong?" Seeing this, Qian Cheng asked.

"It feels like someone is watching me through surveillance."

"Recognized you?"

"have no idea."

In the backstage lounge, Fang Zhao passed the monitoring of the venue, and his eyes met Wang Duo on the screen.

"Very sharp." Fang Zhao said.

"Boss, there seems to be something wrong with this person, do you want to investigate?" Zuo Yu asked.

"Need not."

When the press conference came to an end, Fang Zhao took the stage again and took pictures with the eight people who signed the contract, as well as several Silver Wing leaders and staff including Wei En. When everything was over, the reporters also left one after another and returned to the 50th floor Qin Jiulou's eight people relaxed. Recalling the reporter's question about whether "Live Another Five Hundred Years" was there, the eight people were all amused.

The distance between virtual reality and reality can be very far or very close. Some people are separated by a long distance, but they can communicate face to face only through the Internet, and feel that the other party is by their side. But sometimes, it is obvious that the real person is standing in front of you, but you turn a blind eye and try your best to dig out the truth from other places.

"Silver Wing 50 Aurora" is hung under the virtual project department, and the future "office location" is also in the virtual department on the 50th floor. Wayne can't do anything about it, Fang Zhao brought him here, and besides, it's just here The place is large, easy to plan and operate, and there is enough space for another game room.

The company equipped the eight of them with upgraded version of Flamingo 9th generation game consoles. If they surf the Internet in the company, they can use them directly. Although this kind of entertainment company is not so professional compared to e-sports clubs, but fortunately, the entertainment company also has a lot of money, so there is no need to worry about equipment configuration.

The contracts of Qin Jiulou and the eight of them are different from those of other stars in the company, and each person's contract is also different. However, in general, they are relatively free, compared with the club's contract. This is negotiated before signing. Everyone's contract is customized according to each individual situation.

Because the game has already started, there is not much time left for them. Fang Zhao gave them three days to prepare. Sosager, who is still a student, needs to bring his contract with Silver Wing and go back to school to complete some remote course procedures. There are also some personal matters that need to be dealt with, but three days are enough.

Three days later, on the 50th floor of Silver Wing, in the game room, eight people from Qin Jiulou, plus the five people from the previous game department, went online. The team was promoted by Fang Zhao, and the maximum number of people was raised from 20 to 25. However, Zu Wen and the others had to work and generally would not participate in operations. Zu Wen and the others wanted to quit the team and start a new team, but Fang Zhao rejected it, and formulated "daily military training tasks for non-e-sports professionals in the virtual department".

Qin Jiulou used his old account and logged in for the first time. Because he was bound to a team, he was positioned at the location where Fang Zhao was, which was the building where Fang Zhao made an appointment with them.

Because Mi Lu and his account are in other districts, too far away from District 79, they directly apply for a new account and start again. Mi Lu’s old account ID is "Black Mage", and the new account is "Black Mage Mi Lu". It is also a newly applied account.

The five people from the game department were not idle during this period of time. Fang Zhao assigned tasks to them. The five people came all the way from the city to the coordinates given by Fang Zhao. They didn't have time for Fang Zhao to ride around the city that day. It takes more time, but fortunately, the task is still completed and the coordinate point is reached.

Eight people from Qin Jiulou, five people from the game department, plus Fang Zhao and Zuo Yu, a total of fifteen people gathered at the coordinate point.

After Sosager logged in, he looked at the 0 points on his new account and asked Fang Zhao, "Boss, what is our task today?"

Fang Zhao looked at the road leading to the city in front of the building, and said, "Sweep this road first."

"okay!"

Sosager took a picture with the system's built-in screenshot function, recorded a sentence, and posted it on the social platform when he was offline: "The road to brilliant professional e-sports starts with clearing the road! Please call me today——Scan Street!"
