This tournament is called the Asia Invitational Tournament, and the players participating in it come from several Asian countries, and they also have a certain reputation and influence in the Asian e-sports circle. Several Asian countries with teams participating in the competition have special e-sports live broadcast websites that have arranged hosts and commentators to broadcast the game live online, and also sent reporters to the scene to cover the event.

Before the start of the competition, the organizers announced the list of all participants. However, unlike traditional sports, players in esports competitions use their usual game IDs instead of their original names. Xiao Yao's random game ID containing the team's name seems very unfamiliar to those reporters who are familiar with the e-sports circle, and naturally some people will try to find out who this player who suddenly appeared is.

Xiao Yao and Zou Tianyu were all training in the villa before the game, Tang You was the leader of the team, responsible for outreach, and many reporters called Tang You's mobile phone. Xiao Yao has already signed a contract with Zou Tianyu's e-sports club, and he will definitely show up during the game, and there is no need to hide it, so Tang You told the reporters who asked her to inquire about the fact that two teammates of the team were unable to come to South Korea due to visa problems and temporarily invited Xiao Yao to join.

Hearing the news, the reporters were first stunned, and then excited. Who is Xiao Yao? That is a well-known performing arts star in China! Zou Tianyu, the three professional e-sports players combined, are not necessarily as well-known as him alone. Such a big-name entertainment star participating in an official professional esports tournament is absolutely big news!

When the news was transmitted back to China, both netizens who paid attention to the e-sports circle and netizens who paid attention to the entertainment industry were all boiling.

If the protagonist of this news is other stars in the entertainment industry, maybe netizens will doubt the authenticity of the news, but Xiao Yao? Netizens believe it almost immediately. Because whether it is from the subjective will and objective conditions, this is very much like something that Xiao Yao can do!

Objectively speaking, Xiao Yao's time and itinerary are in line.

The movie "127 Hours" went to South Korea to participate in the film festival was reported by the media. More than a week ago, Xiao Yao appeared on the red carpet at the opening ceremony of the Seoul International Film Festival and had a bilingual interview and conversation with the host in Korean and English. These news have been reported by domestic entertainment media. Everyone knows that Xiao Yao was indeed in South Korea during this time.

In addition, Xiao Yao spent a lot of time playing online live broadcasts, and when he used to play games live broadcasts, he played the game "Survivor" live, and even played this game with Zou Tianyu and others. Then Xiao Yao can play this game, and being familiar with the people of Zou Tianyu's team is also something that many sailors know.

The situation encountered by several teams from Huaxia who went to participate in the competition this time has been reported for a long time. Although Xiao Yao said that he was going to South Korea to attend the film festival, the closing ceremony of the film festival was on Friday, and the e-sports competition was on Saturday and Sunday, and the timing of the two did not conflict. Zou Tianyu and Xiao Yao know each other, and they are both in South Korea, so when they meet in South Korea, it is very possible for Zou Tianyu to invite Xiao Yao to join the team temporarily to save the field.

Subjectively speaking, this is also very similar to what Xiao Yao can do.

Xiao Yao can watch Korean girl groups practice between film festivals, participate in Korean music TV shows, and naturally stay two more days after the film festival before participating in an e-sports competition.

Although Xiao Yao is not a professional e-sports player, it is not the first time he has done it as an amateur player. At the beginning of the basketball charity game in China and the All-Star Celebrity Game at the beginning of the year, Xiao Yao had a lot of professional basketball players against him. With such a "criminal record", it is completely conceivable that Xiao Yao temporarily rescued the field this time to join Zou Tianyu's team to fight against other professional e-sports players.

After the news of Xiao Yao's participation spread, the popularity of this competition in China has increased several times compared to previous similar events. Many netizens and fans who didn't care much about e-sports competitions before also said on the Internet that they would wait for the live broadcast of the game to see if Xiao Yao's performance in e-sports was as dazzling as on the basketball court.

However, there can never be only one argument on the Internet. Although netizens have a very heated discussion about Xiao Yao, an entertainment star, going to a professional game, not everyone is optimistic or supportive of Xiao Yao, an entertainment star, to play a professional game.

Slightly milder, it is not optimistic about Xiao Yao's prospects for participating in the competition.

Although Xiao Yao's performance on the basketball court was very good, those two games were mainly exhibition games for amateur players, not this kind of official game that is basically a professional player. And the nature of basketball games and e-sports competitions and the requirements for players are different, judging from the technical level shown by Xiao Yao during the live broadcast, encountering professional players is basically only abused.

And the slightly more intense one is to directly accuse Xiao Yao and Zou Tianyu's team of joining forces to hype, they are ignoring the team's results, and some people even claim that Zou Tianyu's team's club has given up this competition, and used this competition to help Xiao Yao establish a game master's character, which is simply kneeling and licking entertainment stars!

Among e-sports fans, there are some people who don't want the star players in the e-sports circle to have anything to do with the entertainment industry. In the eyes of these people, if Xiao Yao, an entertainment star, is rooted in the e-sports circle this time, it will definitely pollute the atmosphere of the e-sports circle. Therefore, as soon as this kind of e-sports club kneeling and licking stars and helping them set up characters came out, the reactions of these people were also very intense, and there were many remarks on the Internet about Xiao Yao and the club.

No matter which celebrity it is, when there are sunspots' remarks, it is naturally indispensable to maintain the fans.

People didn't say that they were professional players, but they just met compatriots and friends who encountered difficulties in South Korea, and they helped out with righteousness, how could it become a joint hype to set up a persona? Not to mention Xiao Yao's die-hard fan pills, even some ordinary passers-by fans couldn't stand it, and began to reply to those sunspots on the Internet.

Xiao Yao is recognized as a very powerful young generation in Huaxia, and his image has always been relatively positive and sunny, and there are no real negative news stars, and there are a lot of ordinary passers-by fans. Before Xiao Yao's "pills" could make a move, the counterattack of those passers-by suppressed the remarks of the sunspots.

However, even if passers-by didn't move, Xiao Yao's die-hard fans "pills" didn't plan to quarrel with the sunspots on the Internet. Because die-hard fans who are familiar with Xiao Yao know that Xiao Yao doesn't need fans to come forward to fight with sunspots in this kind of thing, they just need to sit back and wait for Xiao Yao to slap his face with facts.

After two days of competition, Xiao Yao's performance really did not disappoint the "pills".

Although Xiao Yao's ninth result in the individual competition did not even have a chance to get on the podium, this result was already very good. This is a professional competition, and there are more than 100 professional players from Asia participating, even if only the twenty or thirty professional players who went to Huaxia, Xiao Yao's individual results can be ranked in the top five. You can't expect Xiao Yao, whose main business is singing and acting, to come back with a solo championship like Zou Tianyu, right? In that case, where should the faces of Zou Tianyu, professional players who have played games since childhood, go?

Of course, what is more important is that Xiao Yao and his team won the championship of the team competition, and Xiao Yao did stand on the championship podium.

Because of Xiao Yao's participation, the number of viewers of the live webcast of this competition is also very impressive. Xiao Yao's performance in the two-day competition was also seen by many netizens. Unlike the "three belts and one" expected by many netizens, although Xiao Yao's number of kills in the team competition was not much, it played a big role. Whether it is from the result or the process, Xiao Yao can be regarded as a successful slap in the face, those sunspots who said that Xiao Yao and the team jointly hyped up, and the club gave up the game to help Xiao Yao set up a personality.

Normally, Zou Tianyu, who won two championships by himself, should be the only focus of the audience, but due to the huge topic in China, the number of reporters who flocked to Xiao Yao during the post-match interview of the award ceremony was no less than the number of reporters who wanted to interview Zou Tianyu, the double champion.

Since the news of Xiao Yao's competition was revealed, many reporters wanted to interview Xiao Yao, but before and during the competition, Xiao Yao refused to be interviewed by any media reporters on the grounds of concentrating on preparation. At this time, the competition is over, and the post-match interview with the champion is a very regular process, and the reporters will certainly not let it go.

Xiao Yao refused to be interviewed before and during the game, because he really didn't want to delay the time for rest and training, and he was not afraid of interviews. The post-game interview is a regular process, and he was happy to win the championship, and this time Xiao Yao did not run away, but happily accepted an interview with reporters from several Huaxia e-sports websites.

In the interview, Xiao Yao first focused on the fact that he has been training with Zou Tianyu and others in the past few days, and his skills can be significantly improved, and he can have this kind of "passable" performance in the finals, mainly thanks to Zou Tianyu's special training and guidance for himself. The second is to unceremoniously complain about the rules and preparations of this competition, and he did not show mercy at all because it was the organizer who gave him the opportunity to participate in this competition. The rest is all official clichés such as how happy to help the team win the championship.

However, Xiao Yao was not embarrassed to boast, but Zou Tianyu and the other three were not embarrassed. In the interview, the three told reporters that Xiao Yao was not just a temporary member of the team to save the game. The accommodation and training places provided by the organizers were not ideal, Xiao Yao found them new comfortable accommodation and training venues, and Xiao Yao also found someone to help prepare the equipment. In the game, Xiao Yao is not only not a burden, but also the core of their entire team, the formulator and commander of tactics. Even Zou Tianyu won the championship of the individual competition, which was inseparable from Xiao Yao's help him collect and analyze the opponent's information.

After these interview videos and news reports were transmitted back to China, they caused a wave of discussion about Xiao Yao.

Regarding Xiao Yao's behavior of finding accommodation and training venues for the team, netizens sighed that Xiao Yao, a big star, not only has money, but also has a wide network in South Korea. However, Xiao Yao invited Hong Xiuyan to be a guest singer in the finals of "Singer", and he had a good relationship with Liu Youyuan in the show, and then thought that Xiao Yao, who originally went to the film festival, went to South Korea's TV singing show, and helped KM's returning girl group to catch the anti meal, and it is normal for him to have this kind of relationship in South Korea.

What really interests netizens and e-sports fans is the issue of task assignment in the competition that Zou Tianyu and others said. I originally thought it was three professional players with an amateur player's "three with one", but I didn't expect the core, tactical formulation and commander of the team to be amateur Xiao Yao, and the whole team competition was an amateur player leading the "one to three" of three professional players, which was something that everyone never expected.

Judging from the technical level shown by Xiao Yao in this competition, his personal game operation level can definitely be regarded as first-class among amateur players, coupled with careful pre-game preparation, excellent tactical literacy, quick and decisive on-the-spot judgment, and reasonable tactical use, many people think that he can compete with professional players. The ninth result in the individual competition of this competition also makes a best footnote to this statement.

Although this is only Xiao Yao's strength in the game "Survivor", the so-called professional players usually only specialize in one game, even if there is a transfer project like Zou Tianyu, no professional player has ever dared to say that the game of each of his e-sports projects is at a professional level, so just by virtue of his performance in this competition, many netizens put the title of "the best game among entertainment stars" on Xiao Yao's head.

Following the general recognition of basketball skills by fans and netizens, Xiao Yao's game level has also been widely recognized. However, whether it is basketball or games, it is a side hustle for Xiao Yao, and his main business is actually quite a lot, but the focus in the near future is still on movies.

In the two days of Xiao Yao's competition weekend, Ye Jiaying and the Chen producer had already negotiated with a distribution company in South Korea about the release of "127 Hours" in South Korea, and signed a relevant cooperation contract. On the second day after the end of the game, that is, on Monday morning, Xiao Yao followed Ye Jiaying and his party back to Huaxia.

When he first came to South Korea, Xiao Yao helped Gstar write songs and choreographs in exchange for the right to use a recording studio at KM's headquarters, and originally wanted to use the recording studio to make a soundtrack for his animated film during the gap between the film festival, but after about two weeks, Xiao Yao was stunned that he did not have the opportunity to go to the recording studio to make a soundtrack for his animated film.

On the plane back to China, Xiao Yao looked at the animated movie materials on the computer, and suddenly felt that it was very similar to the fact that primary and secondary school students deliberately brought their holiday homework when they went out with their families during the holidays, but they didn't move anything during the trip and brought the homework back as it was. Xiao Yao has never done this kind of thing in his life, but he did not do it less in his previous life when he was a student. This made him a little crying and laughing, and at the same time, he actually had a special feeling of reliving his student days in his previous life.

In his previous life, Xiao Yao encountered that kind of situation, usually driving overnight to catch up with homework, although Xiao Yao didn't have to drive overnight to catch up with homework, he also pushed off other jobs after returning to China and concentrated on doing the soundtrack of animated movies.

When Xiao Yao was busy making the soundtrack of the movie alone, Tong Luo, who was another producer and producer of the film, was not idle.

Although Xiao Yao's animated film changed the passage of the CEO of the BN company in the original version from a live-action to an animation, it retained a scene from a live-action song and dance movie in the original movie. There is no movie "Hello, Dolly!" in this world, Xiao Yao used a fragment of another song and dance movie in this world. This animated film is going to be released in theaters, and if clips from other movies are used in the movie, it is natural that the copyright of that movie also needs to be obtained.

The film clips selected by Xiao Yao are from an old American movie in the sixties of the twentieth century, and the film rights are in the hands of a film company in the United States.

Not many people know about this old movie, and the copyright fee should not be very expensive. But now Xiao Yao has a lot of popularity in the United States, if he comes forward to buy the copyright, the other party may offer an outrageous price for the original unvaluable old movie copyright because of his identity. In order to avoid being slaughtered or bringing the copyright purchase to an impasse, the two finally discussed and decided that Tong Luo, who was not well-known, would come forward to buy the film rights in the United States.

When Tong Luo successfully bought the rights to the old movie and returned from the United States, Xiao Yao had almost finished the soundtrack of the movie.

The soundtrack that Xiao Yao completed at this time was completed on a rough cut version of the material for almost two hours, which can only be regarded as the initial version of the soundtrack. After the rough cut version of the soundtrack was completed, Xiao Yao worked with a professional film editor to fine-cut the film, cutting the total length of the film to more than 90 minutes.

After editing the final version, Xiao Yao made some relevant adjustments to the soundtrack. Finally, with the production of the opening and ending credits and subtitles, the post-production of the entire film was completed by mid-April.
