When the program team got the equipment here and made all the preparations, the idols who were sent to the other two venues to participate in several other events also happened to come back. When they heard about the new proposal of 'e-sports', many people raised their hands on the spot and said they wanted to participate.

Whoever wins will be able to draw one of the fans who support them and give them a grand prize. The fundamental nature of the matter is that 'idols work hard to fight for the benefit of fans', which can definitely be regarded as a great thing to get closer to fans.

There are a lot of practical benefits, but only a little bit of time is paid. As long as you don't have a stupid brain, you will definitely not miss this opportunity. Therefore, this vote of idols will have just come back and have not yet figured out the specific situation on the premise that they want to sign up.

The preparations are almost done, and the next thing is to confirm the last thing - when to compare this one.

After Li Jingyuan and the program team's discussion, a conclusion was reached after about two or three minutes. The 'eSports' event will not be held immediately or at the end of the day, but will be held during the halftime of the futsal tournament.

The rules of the futsal game are very different from the 11-a-side games that are often seen on TV, and the rules of this event in the Idol Games are different from the standard rules.

After all, the people who participate in the game are not real football players, but some idols, so the stamina of these people is definitely not as good as that of professional players. In order not to let them get tired like dead dogs on the playing field, and not let their image in the hearts of fans plummet. The program team set the time of an indoor futsal game as 15 minutes each in the second half, for a total of half an hour.

Not only will the whole game be shortened, but the halftime will also be extended. The intermission arranged by the program team was as much as 20 minutes. There are more than enough tournaments for the 'eSports' event.

Some people may say, since the football match has been arranged, then don't arrange other events, right? If you do something 'e-sports' at halftime, won't it ruin the atmosphere of the football game? Isn't that a bit inappropriate?

Not really.

If you think about it, you can understand the reason. The so-called atmosphere comes from the emotions of the audience, and to put it bluntly, if the audience puts their minds on football. Then there will be a relatively strong 'football atmosphere' on the scene, but if the audience is just to watch idols, then it must be a different atmosphere.

How fierce can the competition be among idols? Let's not talk about their skills. As idols, they will never regard the outcome of the game as more important than their own body, and they will definitely not have some physical contact and collision in the game because they want to win, just that. Suffice it to prove the nature of the competition. Not 'competitive', but 'entertaining'.

Since it is an entertaining competition, what will the atmosphere of the competition be like? To say nervous, it is estimated that it is unlikely. In Li Jingyuan's view, when the audience watches the game, they will definitely pay more attention to the idol rather than the outcome of the game.

Under such a premise, there is no 'atmosphere of competition' at all. So. There's no such thing as 'putting esports in halftime will affect the atmosphere of the game'.

In fact, esports competitions are held during the halftime of a football match. Not only is it not a failure, but it can be said to be a good choice.

At NBA basketball games in the United States, there are special small programs during the break after each quarter. Either the beauties of the cheerleaders perform a fiery dance, or the team's mascot comes out to sell cuteness, or the audience is randomly invited to participate in a prize challenge with varying content.

Isn't the purpose of these small events arranged during NBA games to relieve the tension accumulated by spectators when watching the game and to enliven the atmosphere in the court? And the content that Li Jingyuan is proposing now is exactly the same.

In addition, according to the original plan, it was supposed to be four games. However, because the time is a little later than expected by the program team, the program team has slightly modified the shooting plan and abandoned the game of 'competing for the third place', so there are only three games left.

They are Team A vs. Team C, Team B vs. Team D, and then the winner of the two games has another championship match.

Three games means three intermissions. Although a 20-minute break in a game is enough to finish the entire 'e-sports', it will still seem a little cramped in the end, so Li Jingyuan and the program team quickly reached an agreement and decided to divide the 'e-sports' into three parts.

Instead of dividing everyone into three groups to compete in turn, everyone who competes gets three chances, just like weightlifting, high jump, and so on. Only in this way will the process of the competition seem the fairest and live up to the name of 'competition'.

………………………………………………

Everything is arranged, and it's almost time to move on to the next one. After packing up their things, the idols of the four teams all came to the edge of the field, and sat in four piles on both sides of the left and right halves, waiting to cheer on the players sent by their team.

"Hello everyone. This is the scene of the MBC Idol Star Games, and the venue is in the indoor sports hall in Jamsil, and I am Jun Hyun-moo. ”

"I'm Boom~." Both of them have not yet sat in the commentator's seat, but have stood in the middle of the venue and acted as temporary MCs.

"The next thing to be carried out is a new event held for the first time in the history of the Idol Games, and it is also a highlight of this Games. Seeing the goals at both ends of the field, maybe everyone should have guessed it, yes. The new event is 'Futsal Tournament'~! ”

"I've got the fixtures in my hands. First of all, the first game is played by the representative team sent by Team A against Team C, and then the second game is played by Team B against Team D. The winner of the two races will compete for the championship ...... this event. ”

"Brother, didn't PD come over to say hello just now, saying that there was another matter, didn't you forget?" After Jun Hyun Mo introduced the relevant information of the football game in the anchor tone, Boom found a gap and handed Jun Hyun Mo another word.

"Ahh By the way, I forgot. Ahem~, ahem~. Audience friends, please be quiet for a while, and then I have an important thing to tell you. ”

Before. When idols have dinner parties and raffles at this venue. The audience hasn't been put in yet. And by the time the spectators came in, the two teams that had been sent to the swimming pool and the ice training center had already set off. Therefore, for the audience, this is the first time they have seen all the idols gathered, and under the excitement and excitement, many viewers only cared about taking pictures of the idols with their mobile phones, and did not listen to the radio echoing in the stadium at all.

Jun Hyun-moo's somewhat abrupt dry cough finally attracted the attention of fans. Wait for the venue to be a little quieter. He then continued: "Actually, before you enter the arena. All of us had a great meal here ....... ”

"Woo~~~." If it were someone else, the audience would not react so neatly and quickly, who made Jun Hyun-moo's character characteristic 'nasty'. As soon as he heard his words, even if he didn't mean to show off, the audience immediately booed him neatly.

"Be quiet~! Do you still want the benefits? "That is, Quan Xianwu's 'cheeky' will be booed and not change his face, and even reprimanded the audience in turn. Not to mention, the audience still eats this set. It's not that they like to be trained, but because Jun Xianwu has played his image characteristics very well, which makes them feel very interesting.

"Okay, okay, I won't say what I ate, and you will definitely boo me again after you say it. What I want to say is that during the meal, we did an internal raffle, and a total of more than a dozen idols won the grand prize in the raffle. ”

Hearing this, the audience reacted again. It was both because Jun Hyun-moo suddenly announced the news that was unexpected, and because he was curious about the content of the 'grand prize' in his mouth.

Whetting other people's appetites is Quan Xianwu's forte. Therefore, just when the audience was waiting for him to continue to explain, he suddenly changed his tone and changed the topic and said: "I won't say what the award is, it's already been filmed anyway, and you'll know when the show is broadcast." ”

"Don't say this, don't say that, what do you want to say~~!" Some spectators sat in the stands opposite, while others sat in the stands behind the commentators' seats. After hearing Jun Xianwu's nonsense, some people who were anxious couldn't help it, and she happened to be sitting in the stands not far behind Quan Xianwu, so this sentence was shouted out, and it was also recorded by the microphone on the sidelines, and after being amplified, it came out of the radio very clearly.

"Uh, which big sister is this? With such a loud voice? "Jun Hyun-moo and Boom also heard this, but they still thought it was said directly. It's obviously a meat voice shouting, but it overrides the sound of the speakers', thinking so, Boom couldn't help but muttered on the side.

"Don't worry, listen to me." Jun Hyun-mu didn't digress, and after the audience's laughter at Boom's muttering subsided a little, he went on to explain: "I think, maybe the people who won the award felt a little sorry, so they gave the program team a proposal, of course, there may be other reasons." In short, we just got a notice from the program team that we are going to add another temporary project. ”

"You've all played the 'Match-to-Match' game on your phone, right? That's the one that was added to the competition. Wait a while, at halftime of the football match, there will be a lot of idols coming to participate in this event. There are three soccer matches in total, and there are also three intermissions, so every idol who participates in the 'Heads-to-Match' game will get three chances. ”

"After three plays, the person with the best average score is the winner of this event. Attention, the key is here~! After winning this project. The winner will not receive medals and prizes, but will be given a chance to draw lots. ”

"Wait a minute, before the game starts. You will all be given a piece of paper from the staff and asked you to write on each of them who you will be supporting. To put it simply, write the name of whoever you think will win in the 'Head to Match' game, and in order to avoid total annihilation, each person can choose two idols to bet on. ”

"If the person you're rooting for wins the last win, the piece of paper you wrote will be put in a box to be drawn. If you do pull out the note you wrote. Congratulations, you will receive a grand prize provided by MBC, as well as an 'Idol Games Flag' with the signatures of all the idols on site. ”

"That's right. Please note that in addition to writing the name of the person you support on the paper, you should also write the relevant information about yourself on the back of the paper, such as name, address, phone number, etc. Anyway, a little more detailed. Jeon Hyun-moo said a lot. Finally, that's pretty much it.

"Also, you can also write the reason why you would choose to support someone for Lu~, remember, it's more interesting to write~!" Because it was Jeon Hyun-moo who was talking all the time, Boom seemed a little marginal for a while, and in order to get himself a little shot, he quickly picked up a sentence when Jeon Hyun-moo's voice just fell.

Even if it's a sentence. Boom still failed to attract the attention of the audience, after all, the news that Jun Hyun-mu just announced was too exciting for the fans present. You won't have time to think about anything else.

The details of the grand prize offered by MBC are not specified, but the prize given by the TV station will certainly not be bad. For the average fan, this is already a big draw.

And the 'banner with the signatures of all idols' that Jun Hyun Mo said later is even more precious. If it weren't for the enthusiasm to a certain extent, where would you come to cheer for the idols on the spot? It is no exaggeration to say that these fans at the scene can definitely be regarded as the most fanatical group of people. For them, the banner signed by the idol can definitely be regarded as their favorite, and the signature on the banner is not one or two, but contains the signatures of all the idols present. It's not so easy to get something like that, and it's not easy to get that in other places, such as the most idol festivals or award ceremonies, there's no way to get so many idols together.

A staff member went up to the audience to distribute paper for betting, and the fans wrote on the paper while talking with their friends, and the voices in the stadium gradually became noisy again.

"Okay, don't be in a hurry. Just hand in the written note after the first half of the first game. You have plenty of time to think and choose. Seeing that many people were talking to each other and seemed to be in a hurry, Boom reminded him on the radio again.

Because Boom explained the time limit, the audience finally stopped being in such a hurry, and the discussion became much quieter. At this time, the two MCs were instructed by the program team to speak again: "Now, let's focus on the game first." The first game was played by the members of Team A against the players of Team C, and now, we welcome the members of these two teams to play~! ”

Indoor soccer is played in a five-a-side format, but it doesn't mean that each team will only send five people to the game. After all, there are still a few substitutes, so when Boom finished shouting, both AC teams each sent a team of eight or nine people to stand on either side of the two MCs and greet the audience in the stadium.

The more famous ones asked more, and the less famous ones said less, and a few minutes later, Boom and Jun Hyun Wood finished a short interview with the members of the two teams.

After the idols have introduced themselves, is the competition about to start? Just as the audience was thinking so, Jun Hyun-mu and Boom shouted again: "Now that the players who played the game have been introduced, it is time to introduce the most critical person who commands these players to play the game - the coach~!" ”

"First of all, it's the coach of Team A, and the coach of Team B in the second game, let's welcome the former national player, the player who scored the crucial goal in the 2002 World Cup, Ahn ~~Jeong~~~Huan~!"

"The coach of Team C, who will be the coach of Team D in the second game, is also a former national team player, and has also made an outstanding contribution to our Korean national team's first breakthrough in the semi-finals, let us welcome, Yoo ~~ Xiang ~~ Iron ~!"

Most of the fans who came to cheer for the idols were in their teens and twenties, and in 02, these people were only about ten years old. It is impossible for a girl to be around ten years old to be interested in football at all, and there are not too many ten-year-old boys who can understand football. In other words, although An Liu and the others are not famous, they are not very status in the hearts of these audiences at the scene.

However, others can be indifferent, but Li Jingyuan can't help but hurry over to say hello. In fact, Li Jingyuan was still very pleasantly surprised when he saw these two people appear, after all, they are not only seniors, but also teammates who participated in the 06th World Cup with Li Jingyuan, and they can definitely be regarded as very familiar friends with each other.
