CS: Demon King C, you said I was a genius?

Chapter 86 The devil boy comes to the world
Not happy with the contract?

THREAT thought he had heard wrongly. His salary had increased by 50%, but he was still not satisfied?

It turns out that human desires are infinite.

He was somewhat dissatisfied inside, but he did not show it on his face.

THREAT still had that smile on his face. "Are you dissatisfied with your salary? Our management has seriously considered this. I worked hard to get you a 50% salary increase."

"And I can guarantee that if you perform well in the Copenhagen Major, your salary will be raised."

Su Zhe put the contract back on the table and shook his head slightly, saying, "I'm not very satisfied with the contract's duration and salary."

"Uh..." This sentence silenced THREAT. This newcomer was quite honest when he first joined the club. How come he became like this after playing a game?
After hesitating for a while, he asked, "Then tell me a condition that will satisfy you. If it's not suitable, we can talk about it slowly."

Su Zhe thought for a moment and then said, "Extend my previous contract for another month with a monthly salary of 1 Euros. After the Major tournament is over, we can discuss a new contract based on my performance."

After Su Zhe finished speaking, he comfortably lay back on the chair and handed the round to the manager.

"Doubt? Young Master Duo?"

A monthly salary of 1 Euros? THREAT suddenly laughed, not the calm smile he usually maintained, but a silent laugh.

How dare you ask for such a high price?
Currently, only star players like NIko and Zaiwu can achieve such a salary. How dare you, a newcomer who just debuted, ask for it!?
He really wanted to show Su Zhe his linguistic charm, but he forced himself to hold back.

Because their club really needs to perform well in this Major event. This was what the top management said in a meeting some time ago. Otherwise, it is very likely that they will directly cancel the CSGO project and put their energy and financial resources into the neighboring Valorant.

THREAT is aware of the level of his own team, so he must find a way to keep Su Zhe, otherwise the temporary substitution will definitely affect the team's performance in the Major.

And even if we want to change people, there are no good candidates at the moment.

When he saw the team enter the Katowice qualifiers some time ago, he planned to rebuild the team around Su Zhe and REZ, and planned to participate in a few small competitions before the Major to train and compete. By then, the team's results will definitely be better than now.

But he didn't expect that the Major organizer would directly arrange his team in the first round of RMR, so he could only postpone the decision until after the Major.

What was unexpected was that the personnel problem in this Major actually arose from the newcomers in the team.

There are only three words in his mind now: "I really regret it!"

Why did I let this newcomer sign a three-month contract?!

If Su Zhe had signed a two-year or even one-year contract at that time, the current situation would not have happened.

He took a deep breath and his previous good expression disappeared.

"Let's talk about the contract."

After more than an hour of haggling, Su Zhe's new contract was finally negotiated.

The contract validity period is one month, which is the bottom line that Su Zhe insisted on. He insisted on discussing the new contract after the Major.

The monthly salary was changed from 1 euros to 8000 euros.

Niko is right! I still have to take the initiative!
Su Zhe was very satisfied with this result. Generally, only members of the first-line team could get a monthly salary of 8000 euros.

Salaries only account for a small part of the income of professional CSGO players. The bulk of the income comes from tournament prizes and Major stickers.

Su Zhe looked at the new contract handed over by the manager, read it happily several times, and signed his name directly after confirming that some important terms were ok.

THREAT said gloomily, "Satisfied?"

Su Zhe said happily, "Not bad, then, Manager, I'll go to training first, and you can continue to drink tea."

After saying that, he didn't stay any longer and got up and left the office.

After Su Zhe left, THREAT fell silent again as he looked at the signed contract. After a long time, he finally couldn't help but threw the folder to the ground.

"F**k!!! #%^*"

After venting his anger, THREAT slumped in his chair, tugged at his tie, and muttered, "How am I going to explain this to the higher-ups..."

……

……

"Hello, long time no see." Su Zhe took the initiative to say hello after seeing k0nfig walk into the training room.

"You kid, it's only been one night and one morning, how come it feels like we haven't seen each other for a long time?" k0nfig rubbed Su Zhe's hair and sat down in his seat.

He looked at Su Zhe's smiling face and couldn't help asking, "You seem to be in a good mood. Is there any good news?"

Su Zhe smiled and said, "Nothing, I just found some money early in the morning."

A contract with a monthly salary of 8000 euros, although it is only for one month, what’s the difference between this and picking up money?
k0nfig looked disdainful. "It's alright if you don't tell the truth, but I heard you came to the training room at around o'clock in the morning?"

Su Zhe hummed, "What's wrong? I went to bed early last night and had nothing to do this morning, so I came here."

k0nfig patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Young people should have dreams and passion, but don't work so hard."

"Besides the physical issues, it can also prematurely drain your enthusiasm. If you want to go far in your career, a good balance between work and rest is the most reasonable approach. Find some recreational activities when you have nothing to do."

"Entertainment activities? For example?" Su Zhe asked.

He was alone in a foreign country, unfamiliar with the place, with no nearby attractions to visit and no entertainment activities to do.

k0nfig came up with a smile on his face: "Do you want to go to the nightclub? Tonight I..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by es3tag who entered the training room behind him: "Screw you, what are you talking about? If you want to go to the nightclub, go by yourself. Don't lead Arrow astray. Have you forgotten that you went to the nightclub a few years ago..."

es3tag realized he had said the wrong thing and quickly changed the subject: "Where's the coach...why hasn't he arrived yet..."

Su Zhe was just about to listen to k0nfig's interesting stories, but it was gone just like that?
He turned to look at es3tag and saw that he was embarrassed. He then glanced at k0nfig and saw that he had suddenly become silent after being in a good mood just a moment ago.

Nightclub?

Su Zhe looked at the other two people who suddenly fell silent and didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, REZ, headtr1ck and the coach arrived at the training room one after another, which resolved the awkward atmosphere and everything returned to normal.

DJL then spoke up, "Today's afternoon training plan will mainly focus on running maps. Arrow, starting today, you'll officially be the team's slasher."

Su Zhe nodded heavily twice.

As we all know, different positions within a team can also reflect their respective personalities and qualities.

Conductors usually have dirty hearts.

Sniper is a bit disgusting.

Free men are even more disgusting.

The supporting position is a normal person.

Only breakthrough masters possess dozens of excellent qualities such as honesty, diligence, kindness, tolerance, integrity, optimism, decisiveness, etc.

Su Zhe couldn't wait to take the court as a slasher. DJL nodded and said, "Then you and k0nfig should first adjust to your respective positions. Tomorrow, I'll bring in the youth training players for sparring. We'll then identify any issues with the team and make changes."

"The recent training tasks may be very heavy, everyone should be prepared in advance."

After djL finished arranging the training tasks, he went to study the demo, and the rest of the people began to engage in the boring map running training.

After a brief run-in in the afternoon, Su Zhe also had a general understanding of his own playing style.

The main responsibility of the breakthrough player is to help the team open up the shooting line, so that the team can better obtain the opponent's defensive position information when attacking.

But the role is not just to pull the gun line, otherwise it will be no different from a bot, and you will also have to handle some simple gun positions yourself.

Therefore, there are also strict requirements on shooting skills, body movements, etc.

DJL turned off the demo, stood up, looked at everyone's running rhythm, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go eat first. The training today was completed well. Let's go straight home after dinner!"

"Great!"

After hearing this, everyone stretched and moved their body joints.

After standing up and twisting his waist, es3tag asked, "Is the Katowice finals tonight?"

Su Zhe had just looked at the schedule last night and responded, "Yes, it's Green Dragon vs. Faze."

REZ sighed and said, "It looks like Faze is going to win again. They've already won three S-class championships. If they win the Katowice championship this time, they're really going to establish the Faze dynasty again."

After hearing this, the NIP members did not express their opinions, and it seemed that they all agreed.

Only Su Zhe was puzzled and asked, "Didn't Green Dragon already beat Faze once in the last round of the winner's bracket of the main competition?"

es3tag patted his shoulder and said, "It's different. Faze didn't understand Green Dragon's strategy before. From what I know about Big Cousin, he will definitely have a targeted strategy against Green Dragon's donk."

"If the others don't step up, Green Dragon will almost certainly lose. Faze's resilience is still quite strong. The 22 Cologne Bo5 finals really stunned me!"

"That's it"

Although Su Zhe likes the Faze team very much, he may have a feeling of "sympathy". When he heard that Green Dragon might lose, he actually felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

DJL, who was standing by, thought about it for a moment and said, "How about working overtime tonight? Let's watch the Katowice finals together?"

"Although the Green Dragons' chances of winning the finals are very low, the fact that they've made it this far suggests they still have some promising tactics."

"We can't learn Faze's tactics, but we can study Green Dragon's play style, and then we can improve our own system."

Everyone had no objection after hearing this. Even if they didn't work overtime, they would probably still be unable to help but watch the finals when they went back to rest.

In this case, it would be better for the five of us to watch it together and discuss the game.

About an hour later, Su Zhe returned to the training room again, feeling his full stomach.

k0nfig couldn't help laughing at Su Zhe's actions and said, "Why are you acting like a pregnant woman?"

Rez then walked in and said with a smile, "Arrow's appetite is ridiculous now! He's twice as much as me!"

Su Zhe was about to explain when he heard this, but soon he heard es3tag's voice: "Hurry up, the opening ceremony is over, the competition is about to start!"

After hearing this, everyone immediately pulled up their chairs and sat in front of the big screen in the training room. In the interval between the two sides selecting pictures, everyone couldn't help but start discussing.

"How many maps do you think the Green Dragon can win?"

"One? That's the most, right?"

"There's nothing we can do. Donk is still a newcomer, and it's hard for him to perform well if he's targeted."

"Um, I think I can win two maps?"

Amidst everyone's discussions, the first major competition of 2024, the Katowice Finals, officially began.

Figure 1: Nuclear Crisis

"Faze's strong map, the Green Dragon in map one is about to be lost."

"Fuck! This outfield smoke can take two? It's open, right?"

"The Rain God's outfield was destroyed again!?"

"This green dragon has also made a lot of preparations, just look at the second picture."

"Well, Faze hasn't found his form yet. He should be able to catch up in the next picture."

Figure 2: Desert City

"Donk's sweeping diversion is a bit exaggerated!"

“sh1ro has also stood up!”

"Why is Broky's sniper rifle empty again?"

"Holy crap! 2-0! Is the Green Dragon going to win?!"

"No, I believe in Faze's resilience. Maybe they can come back from 2-0 down to win 3-0."

Figure 3: Death Amusement Park
"."

"..."

"Is this really not open?"

"This is not relevant at all, right?"

"My cousin is crying."

“What’s the rating! 2.44?????”

"The demon child has been born!"

After the game, everyone looked at the final data chart in silence.

82-40 KD? A 1.96 rating averaged across three charts?

Is this like frying the world's number one Faze! ?

Compared to the surprise and silence of others, Su Zhe's eyes lit up. It turned out that he was not strong enough!

"It's too exaggerated. Too exaggerated," djL muttered to himself as he watched the post-match footage.

Then he seemed to understand something and thought to himself, "The Green Dragon is in a similar situation to us. If I could also learn this style of play, or make some minor changes."

"feasible!"
