Chapter 2 The Beginning of the FM World
I don't know how long it took. Lin Fenglei opened his eyes, and the sun shone on his face, making him squint for a long time. Only then did he find himself lying in a strange room, lying on a big **. He was shocked, sat up, looked around, and cursed in his mouth: "Fuck, where is this?" Usually, Lin Fenglei is still very civilized and does not often swear, but it is understandable that people suddenly come to a completely strange environment, and their emotions are inevitably out of control. At this time, something happened that surprised Lin Fenglei even more. A female voice sounded in his mind: "Hello, dear Mr. Lin Fenglei, welcome to the FM world!"
Lin Fenglei almost roared: "Who? Who is talking? What the hell is the FM world?
The voice is still not slow, and there is no emotional fluctuation: "Hello, dear Mr. Lin Fenglei, you have just installed the FM09 football manager game, so you have come to our FM world. I am your assistant, and I can answer all your questions for you."
Lin Fenglei opened his eyes wide and was shocked. How could such a ghost thing happen? He pinched his thigh and it hurt, as if it was not a dream. He secretly calmed himself down. After calming down his mood, he lowered his voice and asked, "Then can you tell me what the FM world is? What's the difference between this and the real world?
"The FM world is a game world we build. Everything here is not much different from the real world. You can also eat, sleep, shop, travel, and even fall in love and get married, but your original acquaintances may not be in this world. After all, we are just a football manager game. There are only real football players, employees and a small number of famous people in other industries in this world, and the rest are virtual. You can think of this as a new life experience. By the way, you don't need to speak out what you want to know in the future. I will answer if you think about it in your brain.
"Then how can I go back to the real world? Will the time here be the same in reality?
"The time of the FM world is different from that of the real world. Your country has a saying, 'One day in the mountains, there are thousands of years in the world'. In the FM world, this sentence can almost be reversed. One day in the real world is almost equal to ten years in the FM world. You can serve as the head coach of the football team in the FM world. The condition for you to return to the real world is to lead your team to the Champions League ten times or five consecutive Champions League championships. If you are lucky, you can return to reality in one day. There will be no damage to your body after returning to the real world, because after you enter the FM world, the real body is dormant, and only your brain is running.
Lin Fenglei, who used to play FM, was not unfamiliar with this game, was relieved. This task does not seem to be difficult to complete. In the past, the rich team he led could often get more than ten consecutive championships in the Champions League, five consecutive championships or ten championships. It's too stressful. Thinking of this, he remembered that he didn't know which team he was coaching, so he asked, "So which team is the head coach now?" He thought to himself that it's better to be Real Madrid or Barcelona. Don't be too easy to win the five consecutive championships. If you really can't do it, Chelsea, Manchester United, Bayern, Inter Milan and so on are fine.
"Before you entered the FM world, you randomly selected a team, and your random team was FC Gossau of Switzerland. Do you want to see the situation of your team?
Gosau? What kind of team is this? In the past, Lin Fenglei, who played FM and coached a rich family every time, racked his brains and had no impression of the name. He had no choice but to ask his assistant to call up Goshao's information for him to see. Immediately, a translucent display screen appeared in front of him, which showed the information of the Goshao team: FCGossau ), is a semi-professional club located in the small town of Gosau, Switzerland. It has a long history, but it has never won any commendable honors in history. Now the situation of the club is also very good to support this. The club's balance is less than 15,000 euros, the transfer fee that the head coach can use is only 14,000 euros, and the weekly salary limit of the whole club is 7,000 euros. The club's training facilities can only be said to be okay. The home stadium Sportanla The geBuechenwald stadium can only accommodate 3,000 people, and the stadium facilities are just makeshift, with an average ticket price of 8.4 euros. At present, the team is playing in the Swiss Second Division - Challenge Group League. There are a total of 16 teams in the league, and the media forecast of Gosau is 15th.
Lin Fenglei rolled his eyes and opened the panel of the players of the Goshao team. Looking at the terrible single-digit attributes of the players, he was used to the world-class stars who used to bring the giants. He was used to the double-digit attributes of Qizhao, and he was a little speechless. Just such a team, let me bring to the Champions League championship 10 times? I guess it's more likely for me to bring them to bankruptcy or demotion, right?
After a moment of silence, Lin Fenglei asked, "Can I change the team?"
The assistant was very polite but resolutely denied: "I'm sorry, I can't."
After thinking for a while, Lin Fenglei asked again, "Then can I file it?"
"No, you have to rely on your own ability." I don't know if it's Lin Fenglei's illusion, but there seems to be a trace of contempt in the assistant's voice.
Lin Fenglei was a little desperate. He said fiercely in his heart, isn't it just a broken game? I am a loser in the real world. Do I still have to be despised in the game? I don't believe it. I spend 50 years in the game. I can't lead this broken Goshao team. I rely on real ability. Thinking of this, he is quite a bit of a heroic man who will not return.
Perhaps he felt the tragic mood of Lin Fenglei. The assistant said hesitantly, "Mr. Lin, there is actually another function. If you decide to use it, it may make it easier for you to play."
Lin Fenglei asked with great joy, "What function? Come on!"
"I have a modifier that allows you to modify the potential and attributes of your players."
"Is there such a good thing? Why didn't you say it earlier?!"
"This function is not unlimited, but limited."
"What are the restrictions?"
"To modify the potential and attributes, you need to use a virtual currency, called FM gold coins. Gold coins can modify the player's potential or attributes. The upper limit of player's potential and strength is 200 points. A player's potential before 150, 1 gold coin can increase 1 point of potential; but after the potential reaches 150, it takes 2 gold coins to increase 1 point of potential; and between 180 and 200, it takes 5 gold coins to increase 1 point of potential. A gold coin can arbitrarily improve a player's attribute by 1 point, but modifying the player's attribute cannot exceed the player's potential or the player's existing strength. Moreover, if you add a little to an attribute, the FM world will randomly subtract a little from the player's other attribute.
Lin Fenglei calculated and thought it was also good. Besides, if it could be modified casually, it would be too boring. Thinking of this, he asked, "How can I get FM gold coins?"
"Your current number of FM gold coins is 0. In the game, you can lead the team to win the game or draw. Depending on the level of the game, you can get a different number of FM gold coins. If you lead the team to get various honors, you can get a different number of FM gold coins. If you complete some tasks, you can also get FM gold coins. In addition to modifying potential and attributes, FM gold coins are also useful. The specific content needs to be explored by yourself in the FM world.
"Okay, I'll use this function."
"Okay, but there is one more thing to explain to you."
"Say it!"
"If you use this modifier, the conditions for returning to the real world will be doubled."
"Double up?"
"Yes, that is to say, you need to lead the team to win 20 Champions League championships or ten consecutive Champions League championships!"
Lin Fenglei almost ran away: "Aren't you cheating?"
The assistant said a little aggrievedly, "Don't you want to play more easily? I'm just proposing this function to you. It's up to you whether to use it or not.
Lin Fenglei thought so. He didn't force himself to use this function, but he thought about it and became angry again: "Then why do you force me to play this inexplicable FM world?"
The assistant was even more aggrieved: "I don't have the ability to force you to play. I didn't bring you in. I'm just an assistant to help you play more easily."
As soon as Lin Fenglei heard this, his anger immediately dissipated without a trace. He said apologetically, "It turned out that you didn't pull me in. I blamed you. I apologize to you. But if you let me know who pulled me in, I will never end with him.
"There is no need to apologize. Have you decided to use the modifier function?"
"Okay, I decided to use it." Lin Fenglei thought for a moment and felt that it would be easier to use a modifier. Although there were many restrictions, there were also many possibilities. He fantasized that he would lead all the players with 200 potential and 200 Goshao team to sweep the European continent in the future. He laughed.
"Then I will open the modifier function for you. You can experience it now."
The display screen in front of Lin Fenglei appeared again. A modifier interface appeared on it, which was all Chinese and the operation was also very convenient. Lin Fenglei found the Goshao team, and the potential and strength of all the players on it were clearly listed. Lin Fenglei looked at it and lamented again. The highest potential above was only 1. About 10, the highest strength is less than 90, such a team is really weak. He casually clicked on a player's information. There is a + sign behind the potential column and all attributes above, which should be the place to modify. However, now the FM gold coin column in the upper left corner of the modifier is still a big 0 word, so those + numbers are all gray and cannot be used.
While experiencing the modifier, a mobile phone on a desk next to it rang. After Lin Fenglei answered the phone, a female voice came from it: "Hello, Mr. Lin! I'm your secretary Ruth. You need to attend a press conference now. The main questions are about your role as the head coach of the Gosho team. The time is 9 a.m. in the club conference hall. It's 8:30 a.m. now. In ten minutes, a taxi will pick you up at your door to the club. Please be sure to take care of your personal affairs and come. Thank you!"
Ruth doesn't know which language she speaks, but the amazing thing is that Lin Fenglei can fully understand it. Although he confirmed that he had never heard this language before, he thought, maybe this is a different place from the FM world and the real world. Of course, it is a good difference. As he thought about it, he replied politely, "Thank you. I know. I will attend on time!" Of course, he also uses the same language, although he doesn't know why he speaks it.
Lin Fenglei dressed and washed as fast as possible, and then came to his door to wait for a taxi. While waiting for the taxi for a short time, he looked at the place where he would live in the future. Goshao is really a very small town, quite quiet, a typical European pastoral scenery. A majestic mountain range can be seen not far from the town. Lin Fenglei thought that he lived in such a beautiful place. It's not in vain to be forced into the FM world for ten years.
