Eight years after Gao Ran retired, a biography of Gao Ran appeared on CCTV.
"The Burning of the Fire of E-Sports - The Legend of Gao Ran".
"All stories begin in 2019, that's where the high-burning dream begins."
"In the second half of 2019, at the age of 16, Gao Ran, who loves e-sports, entered the Phoenix E-sports Academy under his strong will and started his own legendary road."
"Gao Ran initially didn't understand the meaning of the two words career."
"After entering the e-sports academy, the fierce competition made Gao Ran feel the pressure. He began to practice continuously. It was during this time that Gao Ran's talent fully blossomed."
"After half a year of student assessment, Gao Ran successfully stood out from the FIFA division and entered the academy's representative team, thus starting the road to e-sports."
"In the first half of 2020, the FIFA finals of the eight-school league made Gao Ran famous."
"When the overall strength of the team was not as good as the opponent, Gao Ran turned the tide and led Phoenix to defeat the opponent. In the final, he defeated the already well-known semi-professional player Zhou Zhenning and won the eight-school league championship."
"The FIFA circle at that time had a very high opinion of the newcomer Gao Ran. The national competition auditions were inseparable from the legendary FIFA professional player Ye Zhousha."
"But what no one expected was..."
"Gao Ran's first professional championship was not in the familiar FIFA, but StarCraft 2, an RTS game that was already terminally ill at the time."
"Gao Ran, who was only 16 years old at the time, fought his way through the auditions. A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and he shined brightly in the national e-sports competition!"
"Winning his first e-sports competition championship, this 16-year-old genius at the time had already accumulated some fame."
"The Gao Ran of this era is young and unstoppable, relying on his own strength to resolve battles."
"At that time, Gao Ran was still a student of Phoenix Academy and was not considered a professional player. Just when everyone thought that Gao Ran would engage in professional competitions in FIFA or StarCraft, Gao Ran made an astonishing decision."
"He wants to play Dota 2 and he wants to form his own team."
"This was an unattainable dream for Gao Ran, who was only 16 years old at the time."
"By chance, there was a person who took a fancy to Gao Ran's talent and was willing to invest in building a team with Gao Ran as the core. This person was Mr. Ye of Dream Club, and he was also the father of Ye Jianing, who was in a relationship with Gao Ran at the time."
"Gao Ran has formed a team that is not very strong on paper, and can even be said to be weak."
"At that time, in addition to Gao Ran, there were two newcomers in the team who had never played professional games in the support position, Zhao Hao and Ye Jianing."
"There are also two veteran players, Serra and me, who have almost retired."
"In the game Dota 2, generally speaking, young players with faster reactions serve as the core position, and experienced veterans serve as the support position."
"Dream is the complete opposite, but even such a team has stumbled onto the right track."
"In the face of the talented Gao Ran, two veterans, Serra and me, were willing to give up part of their resources to make Gao Ran the absolute core of the team. Dream's play style was initially established."
"At that time, Dream completely regarded Gao Ran as its only core, and Gao Ran lived up to expectations and led Dream to defeat powerful enemies along the way."
"But the qualifying match against LGD completely made Dream start to reflect."
"Dream's tactics have always been too single. Not only LGD, which was at its peak in China at the time, but also other teams later learned to play against Dream."
"Dream also made an important change after thinking about it. This change is also based on the change in Gao Ran's play style. From then on, Gao Ran will allocate more resources to the veteran r in the team."
"R, who has always been steady and cautious, also performed beyond fans' imagination. Dream is gradually gaining momentum. Even the visa issue did not stop Dream."
"For the first time on the TI stage, Dream did not fluctuate as expected. As the captain of the team, the core Gao Ran also showed a calmness beyond his peers."
"Just like the talented young man who once blossomed in the e-sports arena, Gao Ran also fully blossomed at the age of 17."
“We had 10 wins and 6 losses in the group stage and advanced to the knockout rounds with third place in the group.”
“In the first round of the knockout round, we faced the world’s number one and defending champion Secret.”
"When the whole world was not optimistic about Dream, Gao Ran stood up."
"In the duel with the world's top mid laner Nisha, Gao Ran had an absolute advantage, killing alone, suppressing, and going berserk!"
"Gao Ran, who first entered the TI arena, almost played a perfect game. One set of Queen, one set of Druid, and he took away the powerful secret team 2-0."
"Facing Nigma in the upper bracket semi-finals, Dream also encountered its first impact. It wasn't until the final game that they won the game with the high-burning Dengo as their core."
"Dream reached the upper bracket finals, which means they are at least the top three in TI."
"The high-burning Fengshen Blue Cat also appeared in the winner's bracket finals, killing 1 out of 15, another 2-0."
"Facing the powerful OG team, Dream has gone completely crazy. In the finals, they once again faced OG in the Bo5 finals."
"It can be said that Gao Ran has accomplished all the tasks that a mid laner can do."
"The team's veterans R also performed wonderfully. Little Skeleton, Musket, Parker, and Gao Ran left several almost perfect games on the final stage."
"Gao Ran won his first world championship."
…
"Gao Ran was still not favored by others when he moved to PUBG, but at that time Gao Ran was extremely focused."

"Gao Ran joins the DreamPUBG division again. From this moment on, Gao Ran officially enters his peak period."

"What replaced it was shock and shouting."

"But just like the failure when Dota 2 was formed, this young team also needs a failure to grow."

"Dream won the World Finals."
"Gao Ran also won another world championship."
"The popularity of the three major games, RTS, MOBA, and FPS, has completely shattered everyone's doubts."
"But Gao Ran, who clearly had better options, returned to the FIFA arena at this time."
"The place where dreams begin."
…
"At the FIFA World Finals, Gao Ran, who won the championship, had a scene that no one wanted to see."
"Sprained hand."
"This is the Achilles heel of professional players. Too many talented e-sports players have been ruined by injuries."
"Although Gao Ran won the FIFA World Finals and continued his legendary journey, after the game Gao Ran went to a hospital in Germany to check his hand injury."
"The final result was not optimistic. Gao Ran had to undergo hand surgery, but this would require at least a year of rest. This was a fatal blow to a player at his peak."
"The injury has not been announced, but Gao Ran has made his decision. After playing the planned StarCraft 2 World Finals, Gao Ran will undergo surgery."
"Even in the face of this situation, Gao Ran's strong self-confidence makes him firmly believe that he can return to the game in full form."

When the last scene of the three-hour documentary ended, Gao Ran and Ye Jianing, who had been watching on the sofa, also looked at each other and smiled.
"Shh."
Gao Ran made a gesture of silence, and Ye Jianing also looked gently into Gao Ran's arms.
In Gao Ran's arms, a cute little girl was sleeping soundly. The documentary was too long, and Gao Yueyue fell asleep halfway through watching it.
Gao Ran secretly kissed his daughter, then gently picked her up and put her on the bed.
After gently closing the door, Gao Ran stretched out and looked at Ye Jianing.
