Chapter 121 The first meeting(1/2)
Chen Lang and Chen Yao's academic performance is very good, they are what others call children.
For being able to teach such outstanding children, Chen Jun and Xu Juan were often praised by relatives and friends. Everyone said that they could teach children, which also made the two of them look good.
In addition to their careers, the two of them are more traditional and they also value academic qualifications.
"Mom and Dad, you're back!" Chen Yao took the lead and ran over, hugged her mother Xu Juan's arm and shook her.
"Dad, Mom." Chen Lang also greeted with a smile.
Xu Juan smiled and said, "I'll prepare dinner for you."
Then she looked at Chen Lang and said, "You kid, you didn't tell me in advance when you came back so that mom could buy you some of your favorite dishes!"
Chen Jun snorted coldly: "We have class today, why are you back?"
Chen Lang was a little embarrassed and said: "I came back when something happened..."
Chen Yao immediately interrupted the conversation between the two and said coquettishly: "I'm hungry, let's eat quickly~"
Xu Juan hurriedly said: "If anything happens, let's talk about it after dinner."
After saying that, she immediately entered the kitchen and started making dinner.
Chen Jun sat on the sofa and closed his eyes to relax.
He had already received a call from instructor Chen Lang and learned the reason why Chen Lang came back today.
When he learned that Chen Lang wanted to drop out of school to play games (professionally), he was stunned for a moment, and then became furious.
That’s okay, why don’t you read and play games when you have books!?
After Chen Jun found out about this, he couldn't help but immediately came back from the work to teach Chen Lang a lesson.
On the way home, Chen Jun told Xu Juan about this. She was also surprised, but she was not as tempered as Chen Jun.
Just now, Chen Lang and Chen Jun were about to talk about this matter. Xu Juan hurriedly dropped the topic. She was afraid that the two of them would quarrel because of this matter and they would not have dinner, so she stopped the conversation and ate first.
dinner.
Chen Yao keenly noticed that something was wrong with Chen Jun's state, like a volcano about to erupt, so she coquettishly opened her mouth to avoid quarrels between Chen Jun and Chen Lang. She and Xu Juan thought the same.
Chen Lang and Chen Jun were each sitting in a corner. Chen Yao wanted to open her mouth to liven up the atmosphere, but when she saw her father leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed to rest, she still did not say anything to disturb his father's rest.
"It's time to eat." After a while, Xu Juan came out with the dishes.
"I'm going to serve the rice!" Chen Yao trotted into the kitchen.
"Mom." Chen Yao whispered, pretending not to know anything, and asked Xu Juan: "What's going on with my dad? Why does he look so bad?"
Xu Juan said helplessly: "It's not your brother yet. His instructor called your dad and said that your brother wanted to drop out of school to play games. Your dad was very angry."
Chen Yao snorted, then pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "That must be my brother's problem, but he has already been admitted to college, why did he have to drop out of school to play games?"
"I don't know." Xu Juan shook her head.
Chen Yao continued: "I have heard my classmates talk about whether my brother is going to play professionally!"
"That's right, that's right, it means playing professionally." Xu Juan nodded quickly.
Chen Yao said: "That's not considered playing games. This is just like playing chess. Those who compete can win glory for the country!"
Chen Yao wanted to let Xu Juan know more about e-sports, so she first roped in her mother, and then helped persuade Chen Jun, so that Chen Lang would be less stressed.
Seeing that Xu Juan didn’t know much about her, Chen Yao immediately gave Xu Juan some popular science about the LoL profession. At the same time, she also took out her mobile phone to search for pictures of the competition scene, and specifically showed Xu Juan where the audience was sitting below.
The number of people staying.
Xu Juan had just begun to understand e-sports. How could people of her age come into contact with these things? So when she first heard that Chen Lang gave up his studies to play games, she was very confused.
Now that she has seen these pictures and Chen Yao's explanation, her resistance is much less.
Soon, the two of them brought the food and sent it out.
"Have a meal."
During the meal, everyone was silent for a while until it was almost coming to an end when Chen Jun spoke.
"Your instructor called me and told me what career you want to take off school and what's the situation?"
Chen Lang sat upright, looked at Chen Jun and said: "Now that e-sports is on the rise, I have attracted the attention of professional teams. They invited me to play professionally. I came back today to discuss this matter with you..."
Chen Jun directly raised his hand to interrupt Chen Lang: "No need to discuss, it's impossible. Stop this idea and go back and study hard."
"Dad, I..."
Chen Jun spoke again: "Have you ever thought that it would be so easy for us to train you? You finally got admitted to Zhejiang University. Our whole family is happy for you. Now that you tell me that you don't go to school to work professionally, have you considered us?
Any idea?"
Chen Lang tried his best to defend himself: "Suspensing school is not dropping out of school. You can keep your student status and you can come back and study again at any time!"
"It's better to play games instead of studying in order to play games. Is this reasonable?" Chen Jun said angrily.
Chen Lang argued: "Dad, times have changed. E-sports players are also a profession. Why can't you give me a chance to try it?"
Chen Yao helped Chen Lang on the side and said: "Dad, many people in our school are playing this game and discussing it. I think it's not impossible for me to give it a try."
"Furthermore, this profession is a bit similar to that of a celebrity. It is a profession that takes a public approach. It cannot be regarded as a waste of time. If you play well, you can also bring glory to the country!"
Although it is a competition between clubs, after all, the glory of the division is also the glory of the country, and this has not changed.
SKT and SSW won the championship, which means that LCK is the strongest division. Players all over the world also believe that Koreans are the best in LoL. Isn't this a disguised effort to win glory for South Korea?
Xu Juan advised from the side: "Let's talk it over and don't argue. When the child grows up, we can't just let him listen to our words, but we must also listen to his opinions."
At first, Xu Juan actually disapproved of Chen Lang's behavior, but then Chen Yao's words made her shaken.
At this time, she saw the insistent look in Chen Lang's eyes. As a mother, she still hoped that her child would be well.
"You also think he is right to act so nonsense?" Chen Jun looked at Xu Juan, as if to say, why have you betrayed the class?
"I just think we should listen to what the child has to say. He has his own thoughts. He is also an adult. He will always be independent, instead of letting us control his life and interfere with his choices." Xu Juan did not say anything about Chen Lang.
It is not about whether the choice is correct, but about the philosophy of life.
In her opinion, Chen Lang is no longer a child. Being admitted to Zhejiang University is enough to show that Chen Lang has a high IQ. Since he has this plan, it must be the result of careful consideration and not impulsiveness. It is important to listen to what Chen Lang says.
.
"No matter how you compare, I feel that graduating from Zhejiang University and either taking the postgraduate entrance examination or going out to work is more reliable than playing games!" Chen Jun shouted.
Chen Lang denied his father's words, "That's not necessarily true. We also have a senior in our school who dropped out of school to pursue a career, and he is famous."
While saying that, Chen Lang was still searching for 09's information for Chen Jun and the others to watch.
"You are just an example, it is not universal!" Chen Jun still disapproved after seeing it.
In fact, what he said is correct. Which industry does not have many such people?
"Dad, I know your concerns and ideas, and I also know that you are doing it for my own good. But when I grow up, I know what I am doing. This is my dream now. I want more, I want to stand
Win the game on the playing field..."
"If you insist on not letting me drop out of school to do this, I will definitely not be able to defeat you, but this will be deeply rooted in my heart, and I will definitely regret it for the rest of my life." Chen Lang said calmly, with firm eyes.
These words were Chen Lang's trump card, which directly caused Chen Jun and the others to look sideways at Chen Lang's serious expression, and all three of them were shocked.
It was also the first time that Chen Yao heard Chen Lang's decisive words. Only then did she realize how strong her brother's intention was to pursue a career.
This is Chen Lang's lifelong dream. He could not realize it in his previous life. He has such a good opportunity in this life, how can he give up?
Chen Lang knew that it was useless to argue with his father, and that force would definitely not work, so he could only negotiate through roundabout strategies such as playing the emotional card.
What is the most touching thing?
That is a dream. Who doesn’t have a dream yet? Many people have the opportunity to stand at the crossroads of life and make choices. Sometimes the choices they make may not be the right ones. Everyone will also think about what would have happened if they had chosen another path.
What kind of life?
Even Chen Jun must have had this experience.
Chen Lang continued: "Give me a chance. I really want to give it a try. If I don't get the results, I will come back to study in one year. Give me one year."
Chen Jun looked at his serious son, nodded slowly and said, "Okay, I promise you, I will give you one year."
"Thank you, Dad." Chen Lang felt relieved.
The most difficult hurdle was over, and he successfully convinced his parents.
"If it doesn't work, just go back to study when the time comes and don't say anything else." Chen Jun added.
"no problem!"
Chen Lang agreed immediately and made a bet with his dream. How could he be willing to lose? How could he admit defeat?
"Brother, come on!" Chen Yao raised her pink fist to encourage Chen Lang.
"Since you said this is a profession, you will sign a contract, right?"
After agreeing with Chen Lang to pursue a career, Chen Jun began to care about information about his son.
"have."
"Is there a salary?"
"Yes, if you play well, there will be bonuses."
"That's good. When the time comes to sign the contract, I will accompany you. Don't be fooled."
