Chapter 17 Retirement (Part )

Some fans who understand business have already understood some things.

After winning three consecutive championships, Excellent Era gradually declined. The original first-generation veteran players gradually retired, and in the end, only Ye Qiu was left to support the Excellent Era team's strength.

But now, Jia Shi is a team that is about to fall off the list and be replaced. There are many rumors on the Internet that Ye Qiu's strength has begun to decline. Jia Shi chose to spend money to buy a rookie king like Sun Xiang to help improve the club's strength at this critical juncture, and Ye Qiu can only end up being replaced.

At this point, any rational fan can see it, but the commercial part makes many people feel uncomfortable.

Sun Xiang is here, why must Ye Qiu leave?

Great question, but a simple answer.

Ye Qiu was unwilling to reveal his identity, and everyone only knew that the name of this god of war they admired was Ye Qiu, and they had never even seen what he looked like. For a player who didn't like to reveal his identity, it was difficult for the club to design character peripherals and deal with some product advertisements. The commercial purpose was just to show the love of Excellent Era fans for this veteran.

From a business perspective, regarding the rumors that Ye Qiu's performance has declined, the Excellent Era team does not need a player like Ye Qiu who has no achievements and no commercial use. Even if there are no achievements and the decline in performance is just a rumor, what the club can do is to replace this veteran and buy a player who has popularity, strength and commercial use.

Those who understand are sighing, and those who don’t understand are sobbing.

Almost every audience member was a fan of Excellent Era. The behind-the-scenes footage that had already been shown was all memories of when they had accompanied Ye Qiu in his fight with the God of War. They were filled with sadness, nostalgia, misery, and heartache... These emotions swept through the internet cafe wantonly.

Ye Xiu looked at everyone sobbing, smiled, then stood up and walked out.

Su Lan patted his shoulder, then lowered her head and rubbed her eyes.

Su Lan was someone who had seen this scene, but although he was prepared, he still couldn't resist the influence of the scene and the impact of the crowd. He was the kind of person who would be moved by seeing tears.

Ye Xiu walked out the door with a cigarette in his mouth. The cold winter wind blew and the cigarette was blown out.

Just as he was picking up the lighter to light a cigarette, he found Chen Guo was also beside him, his eyes also sparkling with sparkling, crystal clear tears.

"Hello, boss. Are you crying?" Ye Xiu blinked his eyes that were stung by the cold wind.

"You beast, don't you feel anything at all?"

"That's right, I just couldn't help it and came out." Ye Xiu took a puff of cigarette.

"Is there any paper?" Chen Guo asked.

Then a hand holding a pack of tissues was handed over. Chen Guo turned around and saw Su Lan looking at the two of them as if she was crying with laughter.

Ye Xiu looked into Su Lan's eyes, turned his back and took a deep puff of cigarette, then heard Chen Guo's voice asking, "What's wrong, do you also... need some paper?"

"No, why would I cry?" Ye Xiu turned around and exhaled thick smoke, spraying it all over Chen Guo's face.

Chen Guo choked and waved away the cigarette, handed Su Lan's tissue to Ye Xiu, and turned back to the Internet cafe.

During the conversation, Ye Xiu's cigarette went out again.

Su Lan took out a lighter and lit it for Ye Xiu.

"Thanks." Ye Xiu coughed and took another puff of his cigarette.

"In the winter, just stay indoors and smoke. It's windy in the winter, so wait until spring to go out." Su Lan said. Ye Xiu seemed to have another meaning hidden in Su Lan's words, nodded, then stood outside the door, leaning against the wall, and said:

"Let me finish this cigarette."

Su Lan nodded, then leaned against the wall on the other side, hugged her black windbreaker tightly, and looked at the Excellent Era Club at the other end of the street.

"You were forced, right?" Su Lan saw Ye Xiu handing her a cigarette, took it and lit it himself.

"How do you know?" Ye Xiu was somewhat accustomed to Su Lan always guessing what he was thinking.

"At this age, if you don't accept any commercial advertisements, you will definitely be of no use to the club's owner. It's the same in the business world."

"What about you? Why did you become a network administrator? With your ability, you can get to a position similar to Xiao Zhou." Ye Xiu exhaled a puff of smoke and then asked.

"I was rescued from the street by my boss. I don't have any intention of becoming a professional player." Su Lan took a puff of cigarette and then coughed a few times.

"But...if you want to go back, count me in." Su Lan coughed and took another puff of cigarette.

"Okay." Ye Xiu looked up at the gate of Excellent Era.

"Maybe I can win a championship or something then..." Su Lan casually put the cigarette in the ashtray on top of the trash can next to him, turned and walked into the Internet cafe, but stopped before leaving.

"Oh, the boss asked me to tell you that you and I will be on duty tonight." Su Lan added, "You can play Honor of Kings. If you smoke... don't let the boss see the ashes. You can ask me for the rest."

"Yeah, okay." Ye Xiu took the last puff of his cigarette and followed Su Lan back to the Internet cafe.

After chatting with Xiao Chu at the front desk for a while, Ye Xiu learned that this special match was usually broadcasted with Excellent Era's matches, but today there was an unexpected situation with Ye Qiu's retirement, so it was treated as a match broadcast.

At this time, there were fewer customers in the Internet cafe. Some people went back home after watching the film, hugged their pillows and cried silently in bed, commemorating Comrade Ye Qiu's career. Some groups went to the restaurants next door to drink and vent, and some Internet-addicted teenagers typed on their computers to commemorate this special day.

The quiet Internet cafe made Ye Xiu unable to hold back, so he walked out again and headed towards the restaurant across the street.

By the time Ye Xiu had eaten and drunk his fill and returned to the Internet cafe, Su Lan was already sitting at the front desk next to the server computer, waving at Ye Xiu.

After Ye Xiu sat in the seat where Xiao Chu had watched Korean dramas before, Su Lan began to instruct him on how to turn on the TV and deliver things to the guests.

"The guests had already made reservations before 11 o'clock, and they all stayed all night, so just watch me register and turn on the computers for the newcomers. If the computer is broken, restarting it will cure all problems. If that doesn't work, find a new one and register the machine number and come for warranty repair the next day. Guests will press the bell when they want something, or some will come over to order drinks or something, so just give them what they want normally. Remember to smile professionally." Su Lan grabbed the corners of her mouth on both sides, then pulled them up and made a smiling expression.
