CSGO Unboxing Streamer: A Charity-Driven Tycoon

Chapter 358: End the match quickly.
Last night, the joint platform pulled off a big event.

The three million online users increased the market value of the Shark platform by 20%. If the market hadn't been closed for the weekend the following day, the impact would likely have continued.

By the way, yesterday, when I opened the box, was Saturday. Although the market should normally be closed, it was counted as a workday due to the adjustment of the work schedule.

Today is no ordinary weekend, as the League of Legends Spring Split finals are being held tonight, with RSS and RNG vying for the championship.

His absence from the semi-finals had already sparked considerable controversy online. If he doesn't attend the finals this time, even if the online criticism doesn't affect him, it will inevitably disrupt team harmony.

The League Spring Tournament was held in Jiangcheng, which is about 300 kilometers away from Xingcheng. Since there are no flights between the two cities, Lu Yiming chose to take the high-speed rail, which would take only an hour and a half.

of course.

He might be able to get there faster by taking his own helicopter, but using helicopters in China is really inconvenient. Even he needs to apply for a flight route in advance. Although it's easy to get approved, it would be more convenient to just buy a business class ticket on a high-speed train.

Most importantly, Fu Xiaoli doesn't really approve of helicopters as a mode of transportation, and not wanting her to worry about it, Lu Yiming plans to donate the helicopter that the system gave him to a local hospital this month.

Lu Yiming has gotten used to wearing a mask when he goes out. Although he is not a celebrity and does not have many enthusiastic fans, he prefers to avoid trouble.

He set off alone without any assistants, and upon arrival, he took a Didi (ride-hailing service) directly to the competition venue.

He did not notify anyone on RSS about this trip.

Zeng Yuxin arranged the front row tickets, and he sat in the first row after queuing to enter.

"Isn't President Lu here?"

In the RSS lounge, Abin looked at Coach Abu and asked a question.

Abu shook his head and said, "It's just the Spring Split! Mr. Lu is so busy, let's not have him make the trip. We'll invite him for the Intercontinental Championship later!"

Hearing this, Abin nodded, his expression conveying a sense of entitlement. Although some people online joked that they were not valued by President Lu, Lu Yiming's statement at the previous celebration party did not suggest that they were not valued.

Most importantly, whether or not someone is valued is not for outsiders to decide; you can tell whether you are valued or not by checking your online banking balance.

It would be great if Lu Yiming came; they would try their best to make him happy. If he didn't come, it would be fine; they would win the competition and prepare for MSI. Their goal for this year is to win the Grand Slam.

The match was scheduled to start at 8 PM. At that time, Lu Yiming's live stream chat was filled with people shouting "Open the door!" However, as soon as the time came, he started the live stream. The unique perspective of the mobile live stream, coupled with the fact that he was wearing a mask in the picture, immediately caught the attention of the viewers.

[Holy crap! Is CEO Lu at the Spring Split Finals? I didn't see you ask for leave today, I thought you didn't go!]

[Hilarious! A-Bin just gave a pre-match interview and lied, saying that CEO Lu wasn't here today!]

What?! Ah Bin is lying?! This is outrageous! Brothers, unfollow him!

[Wait! I'm here! Where's Mr. Lu?! I'm coming to gank you!]

Hey bro upstairs, watch out! Don't get caught by Mr. Lu's bodyguards!

【.】

The live stream chat instantly erupted in excitement. At that moment, Lu Yiming couldn't see the comments clearly. Wearing wired headphones, he looked down at the camera and whispered, "Brothers, don't tell anyone yet! I reckon nobody knows I'm here..."

The words were not finished.

The gasps from the audience made Lu Yiming look up, and then he saw his own live stream on the big screen on the stage. His expression immediately turned strange.

The mask concealed Lu Yiming's expression, but it couldn't hide his speechless gaze. At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on him. Although they didn't know why he was on camera on stage, his appearance of wearing a mask to try to hide his identity made people subconsciously guess that he was probably a celebrity.

Knowing he could no longer hide, Lu Yiming immediately left his seat and prepared to go backstage. The staff, perhaps having received word, did not stop him, who had no identification, from passing through.

Abu and the others had already opened the door and were standing at the entrance to greet them. At this moment, Lu Yiming took off his mask and muttered, "This director really has no sense of propriety at all."

The live stream wasn't turned off, and the viewers were overjoyed to hear this, starting to tease the audience in the chat.

But the funniest part was yet to come: the players couldn't hear any sound from the competition room. Even during the celebrations after a victory, they could only hear a tiny bit of noise while wearing headphones.

therefore.

After the first match ended, the five winners walked towards the lounge chatting and laughing. However, when Saint Gun, who was walking in the first place, saw Lu Yiming in the room, he was immediately stunned.

At this moment, the two people walking at the back were Abin and Meikou.

The two men had their arms around each other's shoulders, their faces full of lewd expressions.

Ah Bin: "You arrived just in time for that level 5 wave! If it weren't for you, I might be done for!"

Meiko: "Oh, not at all~ Bin-ge, you're the best! It's only right that I protect you!"

Ah Bin: "I love hearing that! I'll treat you to supper tonight! It's such a shame Mr. Lu isn't here! My handling of things behind the scenes was absolutely amazing! If Mr. Lu were here, he would at least have to treat me to a big meal!"

Meiko: "Of course! It's a real shame that President Lu didn't come today! Brother Bin, you're on fire today, a 3-0 victory should be no problem, right?"

Abin: "Three to zero? Easy peasy! I'm telling you! I'm really confident I can beat RNG three to zero! I even asked Xiaobu today if Lu would come! Unfortunately, Xiaobu said Lu wouldn't come. But if he had, I would definitely have won three to zero!"

Recently, Ah Bin has been a bit arrogant, but given his current achievements, he certainly has the right to be arrogant. As for Meiko, she's a perfect straight man, and the two of them singing in unison have a hint of being in cahoots.

During the conversation, SMLZ coughed once to remind the two who had become engrossed in their conversation.

But since they were already completely absorbed in their own world, how could they possibly be woken up by a cough?
At this moment, Lu Yiming looked at the two people chatting face to face at the door, and Coach Abu's face next to him had darkened.

"Three to zero, right? Great! If you can beat us three to zero, you can eat wherever you want! But what if we can't beat us three to zero?"

Who is speaking?

Ah Bin turned his head with displeasure, and then saw Lu Yiming with a big smile and Abu with a dark face, which made him shudder.

Meiko responded to the two with a simple, honest smile. After all, he knew how to speak appropriately, and since he hadn't done anything out of line, he had nothing to worry about.

At this moment, the other teammates were trying so hard not to laugh that their faces turned red.

At this moment, Ah Bin said with a face full of embarrassment, "Um... Mr. Lu... I was wrong."

At the end, he bowed deeply to Lu Yiming, at which point the three of them finally couldn't hold back their laughter, and bursts of laughter began to echo in their rest room, causing the RNG players next door to frown deeply.

RSS won the first game, and Spring Tiger Emperor was dethroned. However, for RNG fans, the situation is not particularly disadvantageous. After all, if it weren't for the level 5 bot lane support coming up to help, the outcome would have been uncertain.

The second game began. It was obvious that something was wrong with RSS. When their mid laner Bin picked Camille and SMLZ picked Ziggs, the crowd erupted in croaking.

Only Lu Yiming's fans knew what had happened, and they came to the League's live stream to tell them the truth.

Stop asking questions! President Lu demanded a 3-0 victory for them! Hahaha!

[Hilarious! Ah Bin overestimated himself! It would have been a joke if it hadn't been 3-0!]

I suddenly have this urge to see RSS lose a game. Do you guys think we should cheer for RNG in this match?

[Haha~ Great job! Go RNG!]

【.】

In the end, it was Bin who shouldered all the burdens. RSS is confident of winning today's match, but whether they can achieve a 3-0 victory is hard to say. RNG really has something to say about them in the Spring Split.

Just like the comments said at the beginning, if it weren't for Meiko's timely help in the last game, the outcome would have been uncertain.

At this moment, the League of Legends live stream was taken over by Lu Yiming's fans, with all of them cheering for RNG, leaving many players who had just opened the live stream confused about what was going on.

However, he quickly learned what had happened from other people's comments and was immediately at a loss for words.

You say there's a problem?
Lu Yiming's fans are currently cheering for RNG.

You say there's no problem? This 3-0 slogan feels like a provocation to RNG fans. It's like they're not treating RNG like human beings.
However, the footage of the subsequent match silenced them.

From the start of the game, RSS unilaterally pressured RNG. With the help of the jungler, Bin secured the first blood against Xiaohu and then frantically supported both lanes to establish an advantage. Before Xiaohu even had two items, Bin's Camille already had three items.

The Galio he controls is in mortal danger if he gets kicked.

After RSS secured the first Baron Nashor and pushed through all three lanes, the game time stopped at 23 minutes and 47 seconds.

Oh no! It feels like it's really going to be a 3-0 scoreline today!

[Bin was in really good form today! That Camille completely outplayed RNG! Three against one, and he still managed to kill two. RNG's performance today is truly baffling!]

[Don't blame RNG! Anyone who regularly watches RSS streams knows their team atmosphere is amazing!]

[You're talking about team atmosphere! You don't mean Bin is bragging and Meiko is just being the straight man, right?]

[Haha~ Meiko really knows how to manipulate teammates, even when Abin is being played like a dog by him, he's still laughing~]

【.】

In the official live broadcast room, it seemed that no one was paying attention to the outcome of the match; they were more concerned with whether the score could be 3-0.

For example, Abin promised Lu Yiming that if they couldn't win 3-0, his training volume would be doubled in the future.

As professional players, and especially as a team aiming for a Grand Slam, RSS's daily training schedule is extremely packed.

With this doubling, Ah Bin probably won't have any time for entertainment.

Lu Yiming was even prepared to help him negotiate with the platform regarding the termination of the live streaming contract.

All I can say is that right now, everyone on the internet is hoping that RNG can win a game.

Compared to when he left the court after winning the first game, Ah Bin's face was less smiling now, while the others were still chatting and laughing.

Zhanma stood in the tunnel, giving each team member a hug to encourage them after their victory. When Abin came up to him, Zhanma stepped forward and said with a smile, "Hey~ isn't this our Brother Bin? Why aren't you smiling anymore! Are you afraid of losing?"

Warhorse has a set of pressure tactics, but high pressure can cause a backlash, so there must be someone in the team to ease the atmosphere, and Abu and Zhu Kai are capable of doing that.

It can be said that RSS's success today is not only due to the hard work of its players, but also largely due to the top-notch coaching team, as described by Lu Yiming's fans.

He was met with the warhorse's mockery.

Ah Bin couldn't help but smile wryly, "I've been tricked! Ah Bu lied to me! Didn't they say President Lu wouldn't be coming?"

Hearing this, his teammates laughed and patted him on the shoulder with sympathetic expressions. It could be said that all the pressure was now on Abin. Whether they could win the game was something they all needed to consider, while whether they could win 3-0 was something Abin himself had to bear the consequences of.

Normally.

Players are not allowed to broadcast live outside of the official live stream room. After inquiring with the staff, Lu Yiming obtained permission to broadcast live.

After all, the live broadcast of this event was also secured by Shark Platform. Essentially, as long as Shark Platform has no objections, everything will be fine. But how could Shark Platform possibly have any objections to Lu Yiming? Currently, Lu Yiming holds a 60% stake in Shark Platform.

But simply putting pressure on someone without providing motivation won't work.

Looking at the victorious group, Lu Yiming spun his chair around and smiled, "There's still one more match! How about we think about what to eat later?"

When Lu Yiming brought up the idea of ​​ordering food first, the live stream chat erupted in laughter, while Abin looked at Lu Yiming with a wry smile, indicating that he was really wrong.

Lu Yiming laughed and said, "Don't worry about right or wrong! You can be as arrogant as you want after winning 3-0! Don't feel guilty! Losing one game just means you'll have to train more, and the improvement will be your own."

Upon hearing this, Abin, who had been feeling a bit flustered, calmed down.

Lu Yiming's meaning was very clear: he was just giving him a warning, not deliberately trying to mess with him because he said something wrong.

After realizing that Lu Yiming's meaning was not what he thought, Abin took a deep breath and looked at Lu Yiming earnestly, promising, "Don't worry, Mr. Lu! We will definitely beat RNG 3-0 today!"

These words made Lu Yiming burst into laughter. He stood up, walked over to Abin, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Then let's work hard! What do you want to eat? I'll arrange for someone to book a restaurant!"

When this was said a second time, Zhu Kai from the coaching staff couldn't help but step forward and remind him, "President Lu! Let's decide what to eat after the game is over~ It's a bit unlucky~"

The sound gradually decreases in pitch.

You can see the other members of the coaching staff nodding in agreement.

Lu Yiming didn't press the matter, shrugging and saying, "Alright then~ But if you guys can win this round, hurry up, I'm really hungry, I didn't eat anything tonight..."

Upon hearing this, Warhorse's expression hardened. He exchanged a glance with Abu, then looked at the team members in front of him and said, "Come on! Let's discuss the draft picks for the third round and see how we can end the game quickly."
