Chapter 214: Imagine—Dragons!
The haze that had hung over the city of Shanghai yesterday and the clouds that crossed over the city finally brewed a drizzle this morning. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
When Lee Sang-hyuk woke up in the morning, he pushed open the balcony window and saw that the drizzle was hazy outside, but the street downstairs was still full of pedestrians, and it seemed that the rain did not affect the city's morning rhythm too much.
After washing up normally and using up early, Lee Sang-hyuk and Lee Mi-a met up with SSW's people downstairs and rushed to the scene together.
At the front desk of the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, Lee Sang-hyuk did not meet SJ and others who were staying in the same hotel as expected, thinking that they went to the Shanghai E-sports Stadium earlier to do the final rehearsal because of their performances today.
Yesterday afternoon, SSW won a crushing victory over North American powerhouse C9 in the All-Star Team Challenge.
This was undoubtedly a big morale boost, so several people at SSW looked excited early this morning, and they all looked like they couldn't wait for today's game.
You know, in this parallel world, this All-Star Invitational is the first time that SSW has appeared on the stage of a world competition.
After Lee Sang-hyuk arrived at the Shanghai E-sports Stadium with them, he was a little surprised to find that there were many more spectators at the Shanghai E-sports Stadium today than on the first day.
What's going on?
Lee Sang-hyuk was stunned for a moment, then thought of SJ and Rain, and smiled with relief.
Sure enough, when Lee Sang-hyuk and his SSW group entered the e-sports stadium through their special passage to enter the stadium, they saw that in addition to the e-sports fans at the entrance of the audience's queue, there were also a considerable number of fans holding fan cheering signs such as "Jay", "Sink for Jie", and "Unparalleled".
"Today's guest performer on the Chinese side should be Jay Chou." Seeing this, Lee Sang-hyuk couldn't help but think in his heart.
For this music idol who grew up with him in his previous life, Lee Sang-hyuk still has a good impression.
......
At the rehearsal scene of the Shanghai E-sports Stadium, after the dance music, SJ and his party politely bowed and thanked the surrounding staff. I have to say that Korean artists are still very good at being polite on the surface.
Taking advantage of the break, Eunhyuk in SJ remembered the scene in the hotel yesterday, and his heart was still a little depressed. He whispered to the prodigy beside him, "Hey, you said that Lee Sang-hyuk guy was really voted to participate in the competition?" Could it be behind the scenes..."
"Ah, you're crazy. Can you talk nonsense like this? The prodigy immediately looked around, patted Eunhyuk on the shoulder and said.
"I'm a little unwilling, wait for us to perform for half a day, all to prepare for this kid's competition?" Eunhyuk couldn't help but say with some resentment in his tone.
"That's no way, besides, the All-Star event is something that our company can operate behind the scenes?" The prodigy also said helplessly, "I can only hope that this kid will develop in his e-sports circle with peace of mind this time." ”
“......”
......
As time progressed, after the final rehearsal of the performers, the audience who had queued up early to buy tickets and waited at the entrance of the Shanghai E-sports Stadium finally began to enter in turn.
Soon, the huge Shanghai E-sports Stadium was seated on the third floor. It was packed, and it was obviously much higher than yesterday's first day of the game.
"That's too many." Backstage on the stage of the Shanghai E-sports Stadium, star artists from China, South Korea, the United States and Europe, as well as accompanying agents, stylists and many other staff members were very busy, but even so, they could still hear cheers from the audience in the e-sports stadium from time to time.
At the Shanghai All-Star Performance Ceremony, Riot not only invited major stars from China and South Korea to join, but also invited the Dream Dragon Band from Europe and the United States.
The band won the award for Best Rock Music with the theme song "Radioactive" for "Iron Man 3", and they also sang the theme song "Battle Cry" for "Transformers 4" with great success.
And they recently created a new single "Warriors" for Hero E-sports, which sings the surging passion in the hearts of e-sports fans around the world. ignited a passion for esports.
.....
After all the audience entered and the backstage was prepared, the lights on the scene dimmed, and the four hosts holding microphones also appeared. Walk out of the backstage in turn.
Among the four hosts this time, in addition to the three e-sports star commentary dolls, Miller, and Miss of the opening game that everyone is familiar with yesterday, there is also a well-known host of a local variety show in Shanghai, Zhu Zhen.
As soon as the four hosts came on the stage, the audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
"As a variety show host. It's an honor to host today's game. As soon as Zhu Zhen came on the stage, he said teasingly, "But everyone's cheers just now don't seem to be for me." ”
The scene erupted in laughter.
Indeed, after all, Zhu Zhen is just a well-known host of local satellite TV, but e-sports is all over China and even the world, in contrast, in the eyes of e-sports fans, Zhu Zhen's familiarity is worse than that of Doll Miller and others.
"Don't, Teacher Zhu, don't say that." The doll immediately took over and said with a smile, "In my opinion, this cheer is not for you, but it is not for us. ”
Miller, as the best CP of the doll, naturally "knows the elegance by hearing the sound of the strings", he said with a smile, "The doll's sentence is pertinent, I see that the cheers of the audience are mostly for today's performers and our backstage e-sports players." ”
"Do you know who the guests are today?" Seeing this, Miss said to the audience with a smile.
"Dong Chou! Jay!! ”
"Big Love Dream Dragon!!"
"Ahh SJ's Oba!! ”
“Rain,Rain!!”
“......”
"Huh? Looks like everyone knows a lot, right? Miss said with some surprise.
"You're almost there, the announcement under the official website has already come out." The doll on the side couldn't help but laugh and tear down the stage.
"Yikes!!" Miss, who was still thinking about selling a relationship with the audience, suddenly looked a little embarrassed.
"Okay, now that everyone knows about it, I believe everyone can't wait, let's invite today's first guest performer."
“Imagine―Dragons!!!” (To be continued.) )
