CSGO: This player is too persuasive!

Chapter 487 47. "Nice, I'm your fan!"

After winning the championship, the COL team stayed here for a day because JKS and NIKO really wanted to see the giant pandas.

Fortunately, Xu Beifang had made plans in advance, otherwise the panda breeding base would punish everyone who did not make an appointment in advance.

After walking around the area, Xu Beifang was the first to take the trophy back home.

The trophies for the IEM series of events will be retained by the event organizer.

But a copy will be prepared for them in advance so that the entire team can take it back.

According to convention, this first trophy was reserved for the club, and the others would just have to wait for replicas later.

But there happened to be two locals in the team, and in the end the trophy was taken over by Xu Beifang.

Originally, Xu Beifang planned to send the trophy back home and then have a meal with his family.

But Danking insisted on going to the 'Nice Internet Cafe' to check in, so NIKO and the others came over to join in the fun.

……

Xu Beifang tidied up the house a bit, making sure there was nothing that couldn't be broadcast, then he opened the door again and welcomed his teammates in: "Come in."

Behind him is the operation of COL. He suddenly had the idea to shoot a store review of "Nice's Home".

His wife went out to buy groceries and there was no one at home for the time being, so it didn't really matter if he was filmed.

After putting slippers on his teammates, he began to explain to them one by one: "This is the living room, this is the kitchen, this is the dining room, and this is the e-sports room, which is also where I use it when I broadcast live."

"This is my little gym, where I keep some fitness stuff and a few of my bikes."

A group of people walked in after hearing this.

Looking at the neatly arranged fitness equipment and the five bicycles hanging on the wall, JKS exclaimed: "Your life looks very disciplined, and you look very tired."

Xu Beifang explained: "For me, moving around is more comfortable than lying down."

They continued walking forward and saw a room with a closed door.

Xu Beifang's destination happened to be right here, so he opened the door and said, "This is where I put my trophies. You can call it the Hall of Fame or the Trophy Wall."

The layout of the entire room was somewhat closed, and there was no extra light. Without turning on the lights, they could only vaguely see something flashing.

Then Xu Beifang turned on the light, and instantly there was a burst of “Wow!”

Without turning on the lights, they could only vaguely see the trophy.

But once they opened it, all they could see were the exaggerated number of trophies.

In Xu Beifang's honor room, all the trophies are placed together in a special trophy cabinet.

Danking said incredulously: "So many?"

Of course he knew that Xu Beifang had many honors, but he had never really calculated how many there were.

Seeing so many trophies in front of him at this moment, he realized how glorious this guy's past was.

JKS also exclaimed: "A little surprised, is this all?"

Xu Beifang explained: "It's just a relatively important part of it. Except for the trophy of the Zotac Masters, I didn't put the rest of the second-tier competitions in it. Some of them take up too much space..."

Danking wanted to complain about Xu Beifang's Versailles, but he had to admit that Xu Beifang really had the ability to do so.

In this guy's prime, second-tier games were literally like picking up money for him.

He didn't count them carefully, but there were nearly twenty trophies visible to the naked eye, not to mention the medals placed nearby and the various honors given by HLTV.

Everyone was looking at Xu Beifang's past achievements. Xu Beifang also opened a new cabinet from the side and put the trophy he had just won from IEM Chengdu Station into it.

NIKO noticed the trophy in the center of the trophy stand.

"This is?"

"My first Major trophy. It's quite heavy. I almost dropped it when I was lifting it."

Xu Beifang had a sly smile on his face: "I remember the day we won the championship, it seemed to be Device's birthday..."

Originally, this championship could have been the best birthday gift for device, but the little bee broke the dominance of Team A, and finally made device have a very unforgettable birthday.

"Esports is like this. While you are pursuing your dreams, you are destined to crush the dreams of countless people." Xu Beifang said these cold words calmly.

NIKO sighed: "But unfortunately, I am always the one who gets stepped on."

"I often doubted that I might not deserve to win a Major title."

Xu Beifang said with a look of disappointment: "It seems that I still haven't won enough championships."

At this time, Danking asked: "That's not right. I remember that your trophy was placed in your own internet cafe before, right?"

Hearing Danking ask this, Xu Beifang was also quite helpless: "There is no way, I put it on the trophy wall of the Internet cafe before, and then a crazy guy stole it. Fortunately, I got it back."

Everyone asked Xu Beifang about the origins of some trophies, and Xu Beifang answered them one by one.

After all the members finished watching, they slowly left. Danking was still amazed: "You have so many trophies, it's like selling vegetables at a market, too many!"

Xu Beifang shrugged: "This is just a recognition of my past efforts."

Then he pointed to the IEM Chengdu trophy that had just been put in: "But this is the glory we created together. You should have some confidence in me. Brothers, let's play one side each in the future!"

Xu Beifang's sarcastic remark made everyone laugh.

This makes it sound like the trophy is everywhere.

However, Xu Beifang's exaggerated trophy wall also made them more confident in their captain.

Because this stuff is so damn strong!
At this moment, Danking suddenly had an idea, and said to Xu Beifang: "Please move the chair over here, and then we can take a photo. I will post it on Twitter later."

Xu Beifang frowned. He felt that Danking was up to no good.

……

After staying in China for two days, all COL members boarded the flight to Malta to prepare for the upcoming EPL S17 season.

As a league-based competition, ESL officials set up a special sign-in area two days before the game to ensure that every participating team was present in advance.

If a team is unable to show up due to personal reasons or sign-in issues, it is also possible for them to contact the team in advance to serve as substitutes.

When everyone lined up to sign in at the check-in counter, the COL members who walked into the meeting room instantly became the focus of the crowd.

Vitality arrived much earlier than COL. Zaiwu came up to Xu Beifang as soon as he saw him. He gave him a big hug and said, "Long time no see, Beifang."

apEX and XTQZZZ also came over and hugged Xu Beifang one after another: "Congratulations, your comeback was a success."

CS has been in operation for many years now. There have been scenes where top players have taken a break for a few years and then made a comeback, but the final result is often that their reputation is ruined in their later years.

ApEX heard what the coach said and quickly added: "Then he will definitely succeed. He didn't quit because his level declined. How could the person I chose be bad?"

"Then Doudou will try to beat you up in this EPL." Xu Beifang smiled comfortably, "To prove that your vision is correct."

Doudou wanted to say something immediately, but Xu Beifang quickly said, "Go over and sign in, we'll brag later..."

A group of people surrounded the COL members and came to the sign-in place. After the staff confirmed the players through photos, they signed their IDs and received a player's pass.

After signing in, the COL members heard Xu Beifang suddenly say, "It seems that we have to build a good relationship with Team A in the future."

This statement was too abrupt and no one understood what he wanted to express.

"Why?" Doudou took over the conversation.

Xu Beifang turned to JKS and said with a smirk, "If JKS suddenly has something wrong, we can also go to Team A and borrow Bro to get by. I don't believe they can recognize him!"

The people around burst into laughter.

JKS's face fell even more, but he usually didn't have many expressions, so other people didn't notice it.

The appearance of JKS and Bro has become a very interesting topic in the circle.

After all, they look too much alike. You should know that when Faze's leader Karrigan was young, he was just similar to JW, so he was teased as JW's older cousin.

The two of them are no longer physically alike, and it's pretty good that they don't have nicknames yet.

They started chatting on the side, and the G2 team also joined in.

NIKO's cousin Hunter was the first to speak: "We watched the entire final from the audience. You are such a freak!"

After watching the entire final, I found that Faze did not play badly, and was even better than COL.

But Nice's performance was so good that it directly overwhelmed the balance that was originally leaning towards Faze.

In the IEM Chengdu competition, they were eliminated by COL in the semi-finals, but they did not have too many negative emotions because of this. They even felt a little secretly happy when seeing COL win the championship.

Because COL defeated G2, and COL defeated Faze.

Then G2 and Faze were both defeated by COL, so it’s almost the same.

Although he understood that this was a spiritual victory, sometimes it was unavoidable.

At this time, m0nesy came over and said to Xu Beifang: "Nice, I learned a lot from the previous fight, but if I have the chance this time, I will definitely surprise you!"

m0nesy's words were a bit abrupt. After all, when a group of old friends were reminiscing about the past, he appeared like a warrior challenging the devil.

Xu Beifang just raised his eyebrows.

The m0nesy in front of him was not tall, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit, telling everyone that he was serious.

He could fully imagine how much self-blame the kid felt after losing the semi-final.

The sniper was originally the most crucial person in the team, but in that semi-final, although he performed well, compared with Xu Beifang and NIKO, he was completely not good enough.

Although this was due to the other players in G2, he did not play well either.

"But unfortunately, we are not in the same group this time." Xu Beifang shrugged and did not respond directly.

EPL is a league-based competition with a total of 32 participating teams divided into 4 groups.

G2 was placed in Group B and COL was placed in Group D, so they had no chance to meet before entering the knockout stage.

But m0nesy still understood what he meant.

First of all, G2 has to advance to the knockout stage.

m0nesy pursed his lips, then said firmly: "There will be a chance."

In addition to them, Group B includes Vitality, Falcons, BB, TheMongolz, TyLoo, M80, and a fake team he couldn't name.

They analyzed that in the group stage, the only threats to them were Little Bee and Mongolia's top player TheMongolz, so qualifying should be no problem.

"I'm looking forward to it." The king of the old era in front of him leaned over to look at him, his exaggerated figure full of oppression.

After m0nesy expressed his thoughts, he said hello to NIKO and left with the team.

NIKO looked at the child leaving, feeling a little sad: "He has become more mature."

In his impression, the child's personality is actually quite introverted and humble.

But perhaps without him in the front, m0nesy was forced to transform into the big brother of the team.

"You have to go through it." Xu Beifang has a very good impression of m0nesy. Young people should be confident.

Danking joked, "I was really worried that you might have been eaten alive by m0nesy. You looked like a complete villain in the TV series."

As they were chatting, they saw a tall man with a horse face waving at them not far away.

NIKO turned around and saw: "It's JL."

The social terrorist JL soon arrived in front of them with the members of NAVI.

JL shook hands with Xu Beifang very familiarly, and then gave Xu Beifang a hard time.

"Hello, nice!"

"It's great to see you back, I've always been a fan of yours..."

Xu Beifang immediately became alert: "Should I be prepared to be beaten now?"

When he was young, he beat up his idol several times as a fan, and later "I am your fan" has become a famous meme in the circle.

NIKO and others were also laughing nearby.

JL said: "No, no, no, I am really your fan. Do you remember after the 2020 HLTV Awards Ceremony? No, that time you started a live broadcast, and I specially asked you for advice during the live broadcast. At that time, I was planning to deliver food, but your words inspired me..."

"what?!"

"Is there still this?"

"Is it so magical?"

Everyone in COL was a little surprised. They didn't expect that these two top professional players would have such a little episode.

One of them was a superstar in the CSGO era, and the other was a Major champion in the CS2 era.

The two of them had different career stages, but they didn't expect to have any intersections.

Xu Beifang recalled: "It seems to be true. I didn't expect you to succeed!"

He also felt a little emotional.

He was once gradually improved by the suggestions of netizens. After getting better, he naturally hoped that he could help others, so he often comforted others during live broadcasts.

Now I finally see the feedback.

This moment is just so cool!
"Your words were so useful to me. Whenever I felt discouraged, I would look at your experiences of rising up, and then I would persevere."

"You have worked hard enough to achieve this. I just expressed my thoughts at the time." Xu Beifang could only say that JL's social skills were a bit scary. He couldn't stand being praised so much.

W0nderful, who was beside JL, was like a little white rabbit, constantly stealing glances at Xu Beifang, as if he wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it.

Xu Beifang asked directly.

"w0nderful what can I do for you?"

w0nderful was about to deny it immediately because he was actually quite curious about Xu Beifang.

He is a die-hard fan of S1mple. Perhaps because of his preconceived impression, he doesn't have a very good impression of Nice, a player who suppressed S1mple for a long time during his peak period.

Now I'm just here to join in the fun.

But JL directly pulled him in front of him: "This guy wants to take a photo with you, he is also your fan."

Xu Beifang didn't expect this to be the reason, and smiled helplessly: "Come on, I also want to take a photo with S1mple's successor."

Hearing this, w0nderful, feeling a little embarrassed, immediately came over and took out his cell phone to take a photo.

After the group photo, w0nderful said thank you.

Xu Beifang reminded him: "Although I know you like S1mple very much, you have to find your own way in the end. You will not be S1mple, but w0nderful on the field."

After saying that, Xu Beifang left with COL.

Watching Xu Beifang walking away, w0nderful said, "I think I know why so many people like him."

JL smiled cheerfully: "Of course not, she is a famous succubus!"

"We happen to be in Group D this time, and I really want to see what Nice will look like in the game."

w0nderful didn't say anything, but he also wanted to see how S1mple, who was so strong back then, was suppressed by Nice.
