Superstars of Tomorrow

Fang Zhao asked them to "sweep the streets", one is to let them practice their hands first, get used to this kind of team battle, and the other is to have a close look at their individual styles and strengths, although he has also checked these people one by one before, But there is a difference between video and close-up on-the-spot observation. On-the-spot performance and emergency response are convenient for Fang Zhao to understand them better. Only when he understands can he assign tasks to them and adjust the formation.

Sosag from Yanbei University of Finance and Economics and Jia Ke, who graduated from Yanzhou Haida University, although in reality they have some disputes because of conflicts between schools, but in the game, any personal grievances are put aside first. This is also the result of Fang Zhao talking to them one by one. Once he finds out who is cheating his teammates, he will be kicked out without a word. This is also one of the items clearly stated in the signed contract.

The movements of the fifteen people could not be small. It was okay outside the urban area, but the closer they were to the urban area, the more people noticed them.

Fang Zhao didn't let them use the noise reduction device, and because of "living another 500 years" and Qin Jiulou eight people signed a contract with Silver Wings in District 79, they squatted around in District 79, so they couldn't find it yet. Don't be journalists, either.

The search interest for "Silver Wing 50 Aurora" has skyrocketed recently on the Internet. Before that, because of the signing of eight people from Qin Jiulou, the topic has exploded. Now the whole team is no longer secretive, and it is just right to catch the news!

The players in Area 79 want to cry. In the past, there was only one super "cleaner" who "live another five hundred years", but now there is an additional team of "sweeping streets". How can they gain experience? Especially where the "Silver Wing 50 Aurora" is active, the surrounding monsters are attracted by the noise. Some players wanted to imitate them to attract monsters, but they were backlashed, and their own strength was insufficient, so they were wiped out by the group instead.

It's not something that everyone can do. Therefore, the players in District 79 are thinking about whether to make a big move and move to the surrounding theaters, either District 78 or District 80, which is the case in almost all the districts where big clubs are located. Of course, if you want to follow the "Silver Wing 50 Aurora" team and pick up cheap ones, you can also try.

Therefore, the forums of Area 79 often see similar posts recently:

"The number of monsters in the city is limited, have any moved to Area 78? Form a group to move!"

"Area 79 has changed. It is going to become Area 79 of 'Silver Light'. It's sad." "Silver Light" is the abbreviation given by players to "Silver Wing 50 Aurora".

"There are too few monsters in this city, and they don't seem to have increased much recently. Could it be that they were wiped out by the people of Silver Light, and the number of new additions can't keep up? The system hasn't released any major tasks yet. Do you have to find them yourself?"

"Let's go out of the city and form a team. I heard that there are more monsters outside the city. You don't have to run too far. You can go out in the morning, and you can go back to the city at night to find a safe place to go offline. We must go out of the city together to report the number!"

However, unlike the complicated moods of the players, the reporters in Area 79 were completely crazy. In order to grab the news, they did not die a hundred times a day to show their hard work. With their scumbag technology, you can be killed by monsters when you go out. Due to the life limit, even if you lose your life, you can only log in the next day even if you spend money. You can only log in with a few accounts per person, or ten or so accounts in rotation every day. , Hang up one, change the number, hang up again, and change the number again, anyway, their purpose is just to catch the news, not to sweep the rankings.

Number traffickers in District 79 make a lot of money every day. In the past, they envied those colleagues with big clubs and theaters. Many of them are from studios. Activities in which district they go to are assigned, and each has its own tasks. , People with old qualifications or good performance are assigned to good districts, or they are randomly assigned. When I logged in, I found that I was assigned to a district that did not even have small and medium-sized clubs. I was ready to change districts or mix it up They were preparing to die, but unexpectedly, a "live for another five hundred years" turned out to make them "live" back!

Now that the high-profile appearance of "Silver Wing 50 Aurora" has once again exploded the popularity of District 79, even if it can't keep up with the theaters where the five major clubs are located, but judging from the search popularity on the Internet, it has surpassed some medium-sized clubs.

Even some retired e-sports players were hired by the news media with high salaries, and changed jobs to become reporters or serve as bodyguards for reporters in the game.

This is a virtual industry chain, even though it is often attacked by people, it is still active because it is profitable.

In the past, a number in District 79 was two hundred or five hundred, but now I dare to double it five times, ten times! Not to mention the equipment, keep up!

In particular, several large-scale dealer studios have directly joined hands to monopolize the account market in District 79 and raised prices. Every day, you can see many studios posting sales announcements: "Accounts in District 79, XXXX studios are out of stock, and you want to buy them. Hurry up."

There are too many reporters who want to get news from "Silver Light", which also caused a lot of interference to the "Silver Light" team. One time when they were fighting vigorously in the urban area, a reporter rushed over to interview, but was killed by a monster They besieged. Afterwards, the reporter criticized the "Silver Light" person on the Internet.

"This IQ is still a reporter? Go back to breastfeed!"

"If you want to die, don't pull others! Anyone who plays games knows that any external interference may cause casualties at that time. It's not bad to say that you are dragging your feet, but there are people who have the face to criticize Yinguang?"

"In Mie Century, this kind of person would have been beaten to death long ago, right?"

"No, no one in the Mie Century is so stupid, they are all busy running for their lives."

Seeing that the online comments were okay, Mi Lu and the others also breathed a sigh of relief.

"But these reporters are really troublesome. We are not like those big clubs. There are also people who help to block reporters. We have only fifteen people here. Could we even kill those reporters? I really don't dare. The mouths of those reporters Ah, white can be called black, so we have to spend time." Every time Mi Lu saw those reporters coming out to kill in the game, he really wanted to attack indiscriminately, but he I have also passed the most impulsive age, knowing that the contracted company now is a team, and I can't do whatever I want like when I was a casual player.

"Hey, these reporters are really annoying!" Sosager felt that he enjoyed the feeling of being chased by reporters at first, and experienced the celebrity treatment, but he got bored within two days. He would rather not have this kind of treatment. He just wanted to have a good time playing the game, why is it so difficult?

"Being a celebrity is like this. Don't think that they will let you go in the virtual world. In the virtual world, they can stick closer. Of course, don't be naive enough to reason with them. They will not stop, especially entertainment. Reporter, if you are blocked, talk less, even if something happens later, leave it to the public relations team to deal with it, don't start a fight with people on the spot, then there will be more things later, what they like most is to make trouble, and they can talk to you even if they have nothing to do Something happened. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Deputy Team Qin, even if he has been away for eight years, he will never forget his previous experience.” Tong Yang, a former HWR main player, passed on his experience.

Qin Jiulou silently nodded beside him, agreeing with Tong Yang's words, but couldn't think of a good countermeasure for a while.

Everyone looked at Fang Zhao, waiting for Fang Zhao to speak. Ignore these annoying reporters and continue the previous city cleaning plan, or do something else?

Fang Zhao tapped the table with his fingers, "Since you think they are annoying, then let them not keep up."

The team members of "Silver Light" all reflected on themselves that day. Indeed, if they were like Fang Zhao, they would not have to worry about this problem. Take a look at Fang Zhao. When the number one on the list first broke out, there were so many reporters in District 79, how many of them could catch the news? It's all hit and miss.

External interference is one aspect, but it is also an irrefutable fact that one's own strength is not strong enough.

After the meeting, Sosager complained to Zu Wen, "It's a lot of pressure!" I used to feel that I was number one in the world, but after joining the team, I realized that there is a sky beyond the sky.

Sosager felt that Fang Zhao was training them as fighters, and he was exhausted both mentally and physically. However, complaining was nothing but complaints, but Sosager still enjoyed the sense of urgency and excitement. Under pressure, his skills improved a lot , I have learned a lot about the various monsters of the Mie Century, the use of firearms, the arrangement of the team formation, etc., and I have lost the laxity of working alone. Perhaps, this is professional competition!

Among them, what made Sosager feel the most pressure was not the interference of the group of reporters, nor the gap with other teammates. The most pressure on him was Fang Zhao. Cover, but it felt like someone was whipping them in the back with a whip every day, and whoever made a mistake would be whipped.

On this day, Fang Zhao was invited to give lectures at the Qi'an Conservatory of Music with Xue Jing. In the game, the deputy team Qin Jiulou led the team. Qin Jiulou used to lead a team and had experience, so Fang Zhao didn't have to worry too much.

Without Fang Zhao, the "Silver Light" team was much more lively.

On this day, they met a reporter.

Since the team decided to speed up their advances to get rid of the reporters, even if they couldn't reach Fang Zhao's level, and couldn't get rid of all the people, they should get rid of some as much as possible. But this reporter is different from those technically sloppy and annoying entertainment reporters. This is a war correspondent named Huoli. Photo.

After encountering the Silver Light team, I asked to follow and take pictures, and promised not to interfere with the team's plan, and would not send out photos of the Silver Light team without permission. He also showed Qin Jiulou and others some of the photos he had taken.

Indeed, unlike those entertainment reporters, Huo Li's shooting angles can shake people's nerves to a large extent. The photography technology is very professional, and most of the photos are cities under disaster. And that skill is also very good, as he said, he didn't cause trouble to the team, he just took pictures with the team along the way, and generously showed the photos to Qin Jiulou and the others.

After sweeping away a wave of monsters, the team got rid of the other reporters, and when they were looking for a place to rest, Huo Li told them about his experience in the battlefield.

Among the people in the team, Sosager was the only one other than Fang Zhao who hadn't served yet, and he was even more curious about those things.

When Huo Li talked about it, it was a bit like a well-qualified teacher preaching to the students. People couldn't help but feel a little awe, but also a little casual discussion among classmates, so that people wouldn't feel alienated and disgusted.

"You know, some things I can't say much because of the confidentiality regulations, I can only blur them a little bit," said Huoli.

Sosager nodded vigorously: "I understand, I understand!"

Huo Li looked up at the gray sky in the game against the background of the era of annihilation, and said in a slightly melancholy tone, "There are still many wars in places you can't see, both outside the planet and inside the planet."

"Huh? There are also those in the star?" Sosager asked curiously. He also often surfs the Internet, but has basically never seen such news.

Others also pricked up their ears.

Huo Li smiled faintly, "To be a reporter, you must have the courage to expose the truth, and we war reporters are half reporters and half soldiers. Every war is to put your life on the line. Work comes first. Second, if you want to get a report with a strong sense of image and presence, you have to go deep into the battlefield, and you must have the necessary physical fitness and professional accomplishment. Many people talk about war reporters. ', 'Fearless of hardship' and other words to describe, but these words are too monotonous, too empty, the real land of war, that is not a game, if there are no people, it will really be gone."

Fire Li recalled, "Let's not talk about the ones in the stars. I have been to more battlefields outside the stars. Once I went to a battlefield with the team, and the action encountered difficulties due to the weather. Unplanned bad weather Under the influence, our communications failed, we couldn't find our way, the situation was out of control, and we could only fight in close quarters when we encountered danger. That kind of unity under despair may be somewhat similar to the people of Mie Century. That kind of Memories are soul-stirring, but they are also full of pain and sorrow, which cannot be understood by those who have not really felt them."

Huoli talked about the battlefield, and about the fact that he entered the battlefield with the army. Many things were blurred by the secrecy regulations, but this did not prevent him from explaining things clearly, regardless of the life of the army, or the geographical environment of the battlefield, climate conditions and some The battle tactics deliberately blurred due to the secrecy regulations do not seem to be made up, but some seemingly trivial details can show the truth of what this person said.

Qin Jiulou and Mi Lu looked at each other, and the doubts in their hearts were greatly reduced. It wasn't that they were not vigilant, but that this person really didn't seem like a liar, not to mention that in the previous battle, Huo Li also showed The responsiveness that a war reporter should have, those photos can also show that he is different from other general reporters. The real feelings in the eyes of Huo Li when he told those things really didn't look like a lie.

Not only did he tell about the battlefield, but he also showed them the photos he took after entering the game. The photos are very contagious. If it wasn't for Huoli who said that these were all taken in the game, Qin Jiulou and the others really thought that these were field photos left over from the old century. They passed by the same building many times, but after taking pictures In the photos, the visual experience is completely different. This is a great way to show the skill of the photographer.

Huo Li also told them some unknown history of the Mie Century, his tone seemed calm, but every word seemed to contain strong emotions, even Qin Jiulou, the always rational deputy team leader, was a little fascinated.

This is a reporter who has broken away from low-level interests. In their hearts, the image of Huo Li has suddenly been elevated.

"Reality is crueler than games. All of these in games are just small troubles, which cannot be compared with reality. However, games are meant for entertainment, so there is no need to compare them like this. I just want to express the cruelty of reality. Listen to me. That's good, don't mind. Do you know the origin of my name?"

And at this time, Fang Zhao went online and came from the place where he landed.

Because the members of the team wore helmets on their heads when fighting, and it was the same when Fang Zhao came. Huo Li couldn't see Fang Zhao's face.

The team that was lazily listening to the story changed instantly after Fang Zhao arrived. Even if they were sitting, they seemed to be tense, and Sosager stopped laughing.

The footsteps of military boots on the ground were not loud, but gave off a very serious feeling, which made Huo Li's nerves tense unconsciously.

When Fang Zhao looked at Huo Li, Huo Li felt all the hairs on his back explode instantly. He obviously couldn't see the eyes behind the helmet of the other party, but he could feel the extremely oppressive sight, as if he had passed through goggles. Stab him.

Qin Jiulou had already left a message for Fang Zhao about Huoli, and knew the cause and effect.

"Don't stop, what were you talking about just now, continue." Fang Zhao found a place to sit down.

Sosager coughed lightly, and said, "Just now, Huo Li was talking about the origin of his name."

"That's right, Huo Li, what's the special meaning of your name?" Mi Lu, the narrator, also asked, he didn't like to listen to half-spoken words, he had to know the result before he could be sure.

The serious atmosphere just now has eased a little.

Huoli smiled and continued, "Okay, let's continue. Huoli means that everything we do is like taking chestnuts from the fire. The chestnuts are roasted in the fire, and if we want to If you eat chestnuts, you have to risk being burned by the fire. This is just like us war correspondents. Every time we take a chestnut, we will leave scars. However, this is our choice, and we have to bear the consequences, no? There is an old saying, the road you choose, you have to walk on your knees, even if the road ahead is full of thorns."

Sosage and the others looked at Huo Li with admiration for a moment. Only Fang Zhao didn't respond.

"Isn't it? It's really difficult for war reporters! He's a real hero! Don't you think so, boss?" Sosager looked at Fang Zhao, ready to wait for Fang Zhao to say a few words.

However, Fang Zhao didn't directly answer Sosager's words, but said: "There is a word in the old century called 'taking chestnuts from the fire', and there is also a story about a monkey tricking a cat into taking chestnuts cooked in the fire. Come out, the cat did it, took the chestnuts out of the fire, but the hair on the feet was also burned, and finally the chestnuts were eaten by the monkeys, the cat was cheated to pay the price, but got no benefit. In fact, I think, The name Huoli is more like a reminder to myself not to be used by others, to be the one who makes profits, right, the future king of war reporters, the current king of paparazzi in Yanzhou, Mr. Wang Die?"

There was a dead silence.

Wang Die/Huo Li: "..." That's so damn right! But how can I pick it up?

The gazes of Sosager and others instantly became like blades, not only defensive, but also extremely aggressive.

The name Wang Die, but they have heard a lot of it in private recently. Wayne told them during the department meeting, mentioned the experience of this king of paparazzi, and heard that he was following a certain big star, but in the end he made a fool of himself. A high-ranking official has gone down, God can do things! Of course, he didn’t get out of his life, and was sentenced to prison. In view of this glorious history, the superiors deliberately locked him in an extraterrestrial prison. He was not even on his home planet, and he was not allowed to access Internet information at all. I thought that at least I won't see this person for three to five years. I didn't expect that he would come out so soon. I heard that he made meritorious deeds outside and his sentence was reduced.

Almost as soon as they received the news of this man's return, all the stars who signed Silver Wing A-level and above were on high alert, for fear of being targeted by this mad dog. Especially their newly formed game team had to guard against this guy, unexpectedly, they chased him into the game! Are all the things you said before all made up? Pretending to be so similar, this... this is all a joke! What kind of reporter are you? Why don't you just go and become the actor!

Wang Die had been smiling calmly and calmly on his face, and finally became forced.

The atmosphere seemed to freeze in an instant, and the good atmosphere created with great difficulty came to a 180-degree change. Fifteen people standing in front of Wang Die, with fifteen pairs of eyes, seemed to have fifteen guns that had been pushed to his forehead, ready to kill him anytime! Did not listen to his explanation at all!

The current paparazzi king of Yanzhou has not had time to let himself go after being released from prison. The first order he received was caught on the spot just as he approached the mission target.

Wang Die, who was called out by a face-to-face, changed his mind sharply, and twitched the corner of his mouth, "...Big brother, is there some misunderstanding here? Speak well, don't use force."
