53: JZ Club, the Four Divine Beasts?
Two hours.
The plane from North of the River to the Magic City landed smoothly at the Magic City Airport.
"Finally here."
Xu Jia watched the plane come to a stop, eagerly stood up, and stretched his legs.
This flight was too difficult for Xu Jia.
It was his first time flying economy class, and he didn't expect that he couldn't even stretch his legs. He asked the flight attendants many times, but first class was full, so he couldn't upgrade. He endured it for a full two hours.
"Let's go."
Jiang Chuan shook his head and smiled, looking at Xu Jia's pained expression.
"I've arrived at the Magic City Airport, Old Zhang, where are you?"
When Jiang Chuan was on the plane, he had already informed Zhang Hao, who had arrived at the Magic City Airport in advance to wait for Jiang Chuan and his companions. Upon receiving Jiang Chuan's call, Zhang Hao immediately told them their exact location.
"Brother Hao."
Jiang Chuan and his companions arrived in front of a commercial vehicle. Zhang Hao was standing there smoking. Lin Xiaoxiao saw Zhang Hao's figure and waved, shouting.
"Xiao Xiao."
"Old Jiang."
Zhang Hao saw Jiang Chuan and his companions arrive, immediately extinguished the cigarette in his hand with his foot, and greeted them with a smile.
"Old Zhang, this is Xu Jia, my high school classmate and best friend."
"Old Xu, this is my brother Zhang Hao."
When Jiang Chuan and his companions met, he also introduced Xu Jia and Zhang Hao to each other.
"Hello."
"Hello."
The two also greeted each other, getting acquainted.
"Old Jiang, since you've just arrived in the Magic City, let's go to the club to rest first. How about we all go for a seafood buffet later?"
Zhang Hao got into the driver's seat, looked at Jiang Chuan, who was in the passenger seat, and asked with a smile.
"Second Brother, I want to go for a seafood buffet."
Before Jiang Chuan could answer, Lin Xiaoxiao's happy voice reached their ears.
"Little Sister has already made up her mind. Let's go check out the club first, and we'll head over a bit later."
Jiang Chuan smiled and directly instructed Zhang Hao.
"Alright."
Zhang Hao naturally wouldn't say much and readily agreed.
"Wow! Second Brother, look, the buildings in the Magic City are so tall, much taller than the buildings in North of the River."
"Second Brother, there are so many people in the Magic City, it looks so luxurious."
"Second Brother, the Magic City is so congested, our car has been stopped in place."
Lin Xiaoxiao sat in the car, full of excitement, continuously speaking to Jiang Chuan.
It was Lin Xiaoxiao's first time leaving North of the River and also her first time coming to the Magic City. Everything she saw was new and exciting, and she was tireless.
Jiang Chuan wasn't particularly familiar with the Magic City either. Fortunately, Xu Jia was, and he continuously explained things to Lin Xiaoxiao. The two communicated very well.
One was willing to talk, and the other was willing to listen.
After more than an hour's drive, Zhang Hao finally drove the commercial vehicle to their destination, a villa community located in the suburbs.
This place was far from the city's hustle and bustle, with a quiet and peaceful environment and sparse population, making it an ideal location for a gaming club.
The car slowly drove into the front yard of Villa No. 18 and stopped. This villa had four floors, each covering several hundred square meters. The first floor was a spacious and bright training room that could accommodate many players for training simultaneously; the second floor was designed as a restaurant, providing delicious food for everyone to enjoy; and the third and fourth floors were rooms for everyone to rest.
"Welcome, Boss, to JZ Club."
As Jiang Chuan and his companions stepped out of the commercial vehicle, more than a dozen people stood directly at the villa entrance. Apart from the chef and cleaning aunties, these dozen people were all very young. They loudly welcomed Jiang Chuan.
"You arranged this?"
Jiang Chuan looked at Zhang Hao beside him and asked with a wry smile.
"They did this spontaneously."
Zhang Hao just smiled and invited Jiang Chuan and his two companions into JZ Club for a tour.
"Manager Yang, our behind-the-scenes boss is too young, isn't he? I always thought our behind-the-scenes boss was a middle-aged man."
"Coach Chen, I also always thought our boss was an old-fashioned person, but I didn't expect him to be only a few years older than us."
"Alright, you little brats, don't talk about the boss behind his back. Be careful, or the boss might fire you."
Manager Yang and Coach Chen of the club were not too surprised by Jiang Chuan's age. After all, the people who founded e-sports clubs were all Young Men. Only the four professional players were quite shocked by Jiang Chuan's age.
"Old Jiang, the e-sports club you founded is very professional, no weaker than those established e-sports clubs."
Xu Jia took a good look around JZ Club and expressed his opinion.
"I'm not very clear about this aspect. All of this was built by Old Zhang and the others."
Jiang Chuan just smiled and explained.
"Old Zhang, you must be planning to enter multiple games, right?"
Xu Jia also knew that Jiang Chuan wasn't interested in games. He saw many training positions on the first floor and many empty rooms on the third and fourth floors, so he smiled and asked Zhang Hao.
"Yes, we are currently only entering mobile 'Eat Chicken' (PUBG Mobile). Once our reputation gradually grows, we plan to enter other gaming industries. During this time, we are also looking for some talented players to sign."
Zhang Hao didn't hide anything. The club's subsequent work development was also a veiled report to Jiang Chuan.
Jiang Chuan was not familiar with these matters and wasn't particularly concerned. Anyway, this was Zhang Hao's dream, so he could do it himself. Even if it lost money, it didn't matter; he wasn't short of this money.
Xu Jia and Zhang Hao discussed many things about the club.
Jiang Chuan also met everyone in the club: Manager Yang, Coach Chen, Analyst Liao, and the team leaders Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.
"These are the Four Divine Beasts?"
Jiang Chuan learned that the names of the four players were actually named after the Four Divine Beasts of Huaguo, and the corner of his mouth twitched. This name was a bit too casual.
When Jiang Chuan communicated with Manager Yang and everyone else, he also learned about their dreams, and Jiang Chuan encouraged them.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't like playing games. After trying it for a while, she got bored and started playing on her phone. After playing for a few hours, she finally couldn't hold on anymore and said helplessly to Jiang Chuan, "Second Brother, I'm hungry."
"Little Sister, I'm sorry, we were too engrossed in our conversation."
"Manager Yang, is the restaurant booked?"
Zhang Hao also heard Lin Xiaoxiao's words, ended his conversation with Xu Jia, and looked at Manager Yang, asking.
"President Zhang, the restaurant has been booked. Sinan Mansions. If we leave now, we should be able to get there in about an hour."
"Let's leave now. Little Sister is already hungry."
Jiang Chuan said directly, and the others drove out the club's commercial vehicles.
Three commercial vehicles were enough to seat all of them. A group of people directly set off in the commercial vehicles towards Sinan Mansions.
When Jiang Chuan was going to Sinan Mansions, he also contacted Mu Qingcheng, but she was busy and couldn't come.
