Watch the game

"General Manager Yao, rest assured, we will."

Lin Guangqing and the others nodded.

"Alright, there's nothing else. Go get your uniforms and get some rest early today."

Yao Beiguo looked at the four team members and pointed toward the team uniforms in the distance.

Soon, the four members found uniforms in their sizes and changed into them right there in the conference room.

Not long after, the four members stood in the conference room wearing identical uniforms.

Yao Beiguo carefully examined the clothes on them and couldn't help but praise them. As expected of clothing designed by professional designers, both the style and color scheme were extremely fashionable.

They were much better looking than those team uniforms that looked like standard tracksuits.

"These uniforms look great!"

"They're very comfortable to wear, too."

"Yeah, they look so much better than the uniforms I wore at my previous club."

"I could even wear these clothes out in public."

Lin Guangqing and the other three looked at the uniforms on themselves and couldn't help but exclaim.

Bzz, bzz, bzz!

Just as Yao Beiguo was about to say a few words, he suddenly felt his phone vibrating in his pocket.

He took out his phone and glanced at the caller ID.

President Chen!

Seeing this, he hurriedly answered the call.

"Yes, we're leaving tomorrow."

"President Chen, you're going too? That's fine."

"However, our flight tickets and hotel have already been booked. President Chen, you…"

"Alright, I understand."

"…"

After a while, Yao Beiguo put his phone away. He looked at the team members still in the conference room with a smile on his face.

"President Chen will also be attending the day after tomorrow's competition. Everyone, be respectful when you see him; don't talk back. The fact that our BL Game Club can have such good treatment is all thanks to President Chen."

"We know, General Manager Yao."

Lin Guangqing and the others nodded, each of them having curiosity in their eyes; they had yet to meet the President of the Mingri Group.

"Alright, since you've picked out your clothes, go back and prepare. The competition is in a few days, so don't sneak any snacks."

Yao Beiguo glanced at them and turned to leave the conference room.

…

Mingri Group,

Presidents Office,

"President Chen, you're going to Suhang City to watch the competition? What should we do about the company here?"

Shen Rou couldn't help but exclaim upon hearing President Chen's words.

"There aren't any major matters at the company recently, so you can handle it."

Chen Mo looked at Shen Rou and said calmly.

"But President Chen…"

"There are no 'buts.' You've been my assistant for so long; you should already know how to handle official business. If you still have doubts, it means you're not a qualified assistant."

"You must know that as the Group becomes involved in more and more industries in the future, I definitely won't be able to handle it all alone. By then, many things will certainly be handed over to you."

Chen Mo's gaze suddenly became serious.

"I understand, President Chen. I will work hard."

Shen Rou nodded seriously upon hearing this. It wasn't that she was worried about being unable to handle official business, but rather that Boring Short Videos had recently exploded in popularity, and surely many things would happen; she was worried about not being able to make up her mind.

However, after hearing President Chen's words just now, she suddenly understood—she couldn't run to ask President Chen for every decision; she needed to have her own judgment as well. Of course, she would still report on major matters.

"That's more like it. Go book a first-class ticket to Suhang City for tomorrow. As for the hotel, you can ask Yao Beiguo from the BL Game Club to see which hotel they booked, and just book the same one."

Chen Mo gently patted Shen Rou on the shoulder. Since the BL Game Club had already booked theirs, he would just have to book his own.

And as for watching and inspecting his team's competition, using System Funds was absolutely no problem. Since it was System Funds, he wouldn't be polite about it.

"Alright, President Chen!"

Shen Rou nodded and quickly returned to her office, beginning to handle the tasks President Chen had just arranged.

…

The next day,

Afternoon,

Suhang City,

Suhang Airport,

Chen Mo slowly walked out of the airport. Soon, a black business van stopped in front of him. The door opened, and Yao Beiguo stepped out of the car.

"President Chen, let's get in."

Yao Beiguo stood by the car door and gestured toward the inside.

"Yeah!"

Chen Mo nodded and sat directly in the business van. Once President Chen was seated, Yao Beiguo followed and sat down, signaling that they could drive.

"How are the arrangements for the competition going?"

Chen Mo sat in the van and asked nonchalantly.

"President Chen, rest assured, everything has been arranged. The official Fire Dragon Island competition officially starts tomorrow at 6:00 PM. We just need to arrive at the venue by 5:30."

"What about the competition? What ranking do you think we can get?"

"President Chen, it's hard to say. After all, since they are retired champion players, they might win a few matches using their rich experience, but wanting to get a good ranking is still somewhat difficult."

Yao Beiguo said truthfully, without exaggerating.

"Yeah!"

Chen Mo nodded, relieved. He had come here just to watch his own team lose, and having received confirmation from Yao Beiguo, he felt reassured.

"How about this: since the competition is tomorrow, there's still some time this afternoon. You can organize the participating members to go out for some sightseeing. The competition is coming up soon, and they shouldn't be too tense."

"Notify them now to gather in the hotel lobby in a while. Since we've come all the way to Suzhou and Hangzhou, how can we miss the West Lake? Let's all go for a stroll at the West Lake later and relax a bit."

"President Chen, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Yao Beiguo said with some hesitation. Although he didn't think much of this team organized by retired players, going to a scenic spot the day before the competition was taking the competition too lightly, wasn't it? At the very least, one should have the right attitude, right?

"What's inappropriate about it? One must balance work and rest at all times, especially for a major competition like this. Even if they train a bit more before the match, will there be any improvement? Impossible. Instead, it will only make the contestants' mental state tense. This, in turn, will cause them to be nervous on the field due to that tension, leading to mistakes during the match."

"So, it's better to go out and relax. Suzhou and Hangzhou is such a great place. How about this: since the competition is tomorrow at 6:00 PM, let's make a sightseeing plan for the morning as well."

Chen Mo waved his hand indifferently. He didn't come here to watch the esports team win; he came to watch them lose. So, he would do whatever he could to interfere. Going out for sightseeing could both consume System Funds and drain the esports players' competitive state—the best of both worlds.

"Alright, President Chen."

Yao Beiguo seeing that President Chen's attitude was firm, agreed.

He thought that since he didn't have any expectations for this competition anyway, going out for a bit of sightseeing wouldn't be bad.

Saying this, he took out his phone and dialed a call directly.
