I'm a platinum-level author, so what if I play professionally?
Chapter 32: You rejected my manuscript because you've never played professionally!
2017, April 1.
Shanghai Zhengda Plaza.
As the saying goes, when people encounter happy events, they are in high spirits, and when they are riding high in the spring breeze, their horses gallop swiftly.
Zhu Kai, his face glowing, stood in front of the mirror and adjusted his suit for the fifth time.
Today marks the start of the 2017 League of Legends Pro League Spring Split regular season, and the Snake team will be playing their first match of the Spring Split.
Recently, Zhu Kai's complexion has been visibly improving, and he has even gained a lot of weight.
Because the Snake team's performance in training matches during this period was simply too good; they were unstoppable.
Aside from top teams like RNG and EDG, Snake Esports basically dominates mid-to-lower-tier teams in scrims.
The biggest credit goes to Wang Ke, the analyst the team recently recruited.
Zhu Kai discovered that Wang Ke was really something; not only was his drafting and banning (BP) good, but he also always managed to come up with some unconventional tactics from time to time.
To paraphrase what Flandre said in praising Wang Ke, Wang Ke is far ahead of other coaches in terms of draft picks and tactics!
After each draft phase, the players felt like they were already 5,000 gold ahead.
Of course, Zhu Kai's good mood was obviously not because he admired Wang Ke, nor was it simply because the team was doing well.
It's not because of the start of the Spring Split, but because Zhu Kai, as the head coach of the Snake team, will have to put on a suit and headset and walk onto the stage to pretend to draft in front of the camera.
Zhu Kai used to be very nervous when he went on stage to promote his business.
Because most of the time, he rarely participates in the draft phase; the players decide which heroes to play.
He could only pretend to look at the folder in his hand on the stage, occasionally drawing circles on it with a pen, pretending to be very busy.
But things are different now; now he has a capable assistant, Wang Ke!
Furthermore, today's opponent is the relatively weak GT team, whose record against them in scrims is currently eight wins and zero losses. It's likely that they'll easily secure points in today's match.
Starting today, he will show those who look down on him, Xiao Zhu, what it means to be the top domestic coach.
Like Zhu Kai, Zi Tai is now beaming with health.
His Orianna, Syndra, was the C in scrims.
Not long ago, in a training match against IG, Zz1tai shone brightly and carried the entire game.
It's impossible for IG not to have some resentment when they first moved him from the mid lane to the top lane, and then from the top lane to the bench.
Today, he returns to the field as a key player, and he will surely show everyone that the genius mid laner is back!
Song Wen and Wang Ke sat together by the water dispenser, yawning.
"That Xiao Zhu is really shameless. He gets all the credit, but you get to do all the dirty and hard work."
Wang Ke, however, just smiled and didn't seem to care at all.
There's a saying that goes, "Whom the gods would destroy, they first make arrogant."
Upon hearing Wang Ke's words, Song Wen immediately perked up.
"I knew you were a wicked person. Have you finally had enough? What do you want? Is there anything I can do to help?"
Wang Ke shook his head.
"I don't need your help."
"So what are your plans?"
"There is no plan."
Song Wen was taken aback for a moment, then Wang Ke continued:
"I did nothing, yet I did everything."
After fixing his hair once again, Zhu Kai walked excitedly toward Wang Ke.
"How's today's PPT, Wang Ke?"
Wang Ke shrugged.
"The club's printer is broken and it can't print."
Zhu Kai was stunned for a moment, then quickly said:
"Then give me the electronic version, I can put it in a folder on my phone and read it."
"The computer short-circuited and exploded."
Zhu Kai stood there, stunned, looking incredulously at the laptop next to Wang Ke.
"Isn't your computer right here?"
"Oh!" Wang Ke exclaimed in surprise, "You actually found out!"
Zhu Kai's face instantly darkened: "Wang Ke, what do you mean?"
The PPT was a drafting and banning (BP) tactical plan that Wang Ke had been teaching Zhu Kai.
In the previous training matches, Wang Ke was initially in charge of the players' draft picks and tactical arrangements.
Seeing that the team was dominating the training matches under Wang Ke's guidance, Zhu Kai realized that he couldn't let Wang Ke go on stage for the official matches; he would have to go on stage himself. So he asked Wang Ke to prepare a PPT for him before each match.
In this way, he can simply read from the PPT slides.
Wang Ke's PTT posts are always incredibly detailed. From the draft phase, he provides incredibly detailed options on what to pick for his team, what to pick for the opponent, what to pick if a pick is banned, how to counter if a pick is stolen, and what tactics to use after the final lineup is determined.
Zhu Kai played six or seven training matches using Wang Ke's PTT account and never encountered any situations that deviated from Wang Ke's plan, which made him trust Wang Ke even more.
Unexpectedly, this kid went on strike on such an important day!
He originally thought that of Wang Ke and Song Wen, only Song Wen was a troublemaker, always calling him "Little Zhu".
In contrast, Wang Ke seemed rather honest and simple in Zhu Kai's eyes.
Unexpectedly, this kid actually pulled a big surprise!
What a damn treacherous and vicious brat!
Song Wen couldn't help but laugh when he saw Zhu Kai's face turn a deep liver color.
"Pig liver, not Zhu Kai, you can't always rely on my brother Wang. You're an adult now, it's time to learn to walk on your own."
Upon hearing Song Wen's words, Zhu Kai sneered.
He suppressed his anger, and his intelligence regained its dominance.
Even if Zhu Kai has never eaten pork, has he never seen a pig run?
During this period, he studied Wang Ke's PPTs every day and learned quite a bit.
Even without Wang Ke's PPT today, Zhu Kai might still be able to produce a business plan!
The match was about to begin, and Zhu Kai stormed out of the locker room.
He decided to settle accounts with Wang Ke after winning the game; for now, he'd kill a GT to liven things up.
After seeing Zhu Kai leave, Wang Ke sat down at his laptop and opened WPS.
Song Wen excitedly leaned over and said:
"here we go?"
"here we go."
Looking at the manuscript on the computer, Wang Ke nodded confidently.
Chapter 1: Substitute Mid Laner.
January 19, 2017. Snake Esports faced their first opponent in the Spring Split, GT. Against this relatively weak team, Snake Esports found themselves in a desperate situation. It seemed that last year's best-of-ten match had exhausted all of Snake Esports' luck…
After checking it once, Wang Ke sent the manuscript to the editor's email address.
Song Wen began by saying:
"You should write this book properly; it has to be a high-quality one, otherwise it doesn't seem to help improve my skills much."
"Don't worry, high-quality products aren't something anyone can make with just their hands."
"The editor replied to you, take a look!"
"Hello, you haven't met the signing criteria yet. Could you submit your application directly or apply to another editor?"
Wang Ke's neck turned red when faced with Song Wen's questioning gaze.
"What does this editor know?!"
"He rejected my manuscript even though he's never played professionally!!"
