"Congratulations to the Tianhe team for winning this game, becoming the second team to advance to the top four after the Hurricanes!"

In the stadium, the commentators were congratulating, and the players from both sides were shaking hands in a friendly manner.

Yes, since being shown off by Zuo Wu on the lower road, the demoralized Python team has suffered a big rout, not only lost the first game without any suspense, but also under the pursuit of the Tianhe team, the second game after that failed to recover the decline, and was finally taken away directly by 2-0.

Just like yesterday's Hurricane team, Zuo Wu and the others also played a clean 2-0 and swept the opponent out!

"Haha, guys, well done!" As soon as they returned to the backstage, the Tianhe team members ushered in a big hug from Deputy District Director An Shengjie, "You know? Before the game, I was still betting with Lao Liu, saying that we would definitely win this game and enter the semi-finals, but this guy didn't believe it and said that I was boasting...... Now that the results of the competition are out, you guys, it's really a long face for me today! ”

The team easily won the opponent and advanced to the semi-finals, An Shengjie was happy like a child, how could he still have the appearance of a district chief who is old and respectful on weekdays.

"Lao An, do you speak ill of me in front of the team again?" As the saying goes, Cao Cao Cao arrived, and as soon as Director Liu, who was dressed as a leader, appeared, he smiled and exonerated the players: "Don't listen to your district chief's nonsense, I am quite optimistic about your team, no, your quarterfinals have just ended, and I will bring you the latest news of the semi-finals——"

Director Liu's expression was kind, and when he spoke, his tone was like treating an old friend for many years, without the slightest arrogance.

"What's the news?" Hearing the news of the game, An Shengjie and all the team members immediately stopped joking and became serious.

"Two pieces of news, the first is that your opponent in the semi-finals has been confirmed as the last champion Hurricanes team, and you will have a life-and-death battle with them the day after tomorrow to compete for a ticket to the finals."

"It's just the first, what about the second?"

"The second one, that is, according to the information I received, the odds of the semifinals between you and the Hurricanes have been calculated." Director Liu looked mysterious.

"Odds with Team Hurricane? How much? The crowd immediately asked.

The semi-finals are not drawn, but are distributed according to the top and bottom half of the quarterfinals, which is information that everyone knows.

In fact, before today's game began, everyone present knew in advance that whether their team won or the opponent's Python team advanced, they would meet the Hurricane team in the semifinals!

Hurricane Clan, Tianhe Clan, Python Clan.

Including the Yanzhu team that was eliminated yesterday, they are all in the upper half of the schedule.

Anyone who knows a little about the cup format knows that whether it is the top half or the bottom half, each half can only leave one team to participate in the final.

It is precisely because of this that compared with the two news brought by Director Liu, everyone is obviously much more interested in the second odds.

Everyone in the team, including Zuo Wu, wants to know what their team's odds are in the semi-finals!

"1.3 to 2.8, this is the official semifinal odds announced by the league." Director Liu said.

"1.3 to 2.8?" Zhang Liang and the others couldn't help but be stunned, their faces were full of excitement just now, and they suddenly became not very good-looking.

"What does that mean? Do you mean we have a better chance of winning, or do the Hurricanes have a better chance of winning? Only the little fat man Wang Xiao, because he is ignorant of the world, is still asking questions at this time.

Zhang Liang glanced at him angrily: "Buy us to win, 1 to 2.8, buy Hurricane to win, 1 to 1.3, this kind of odds, who do you think has a better chance of winning?" ”

"Judging by this odds, the publisher is very unoptimistic about us, and he thinks that our chance of winning is only about one in six, which is less than two percent." Levi, who has a good accomplishment in mathematics, gave a further explanation.

"Damn, who released this odds? Why does he look down on us so much? After sorting out the clue, Wang Xiao suddenly asked angrily, with a look of disbelief.

Not convinced!

Yes, not only him, but also Zhang Liang Liwei, who is more rational on weekdays, is also very unconvinced at this time.

The two teams that have never played each other before, the difference in the odds is inevitably too big, right?

Facing the questions of the players, Director Liu first sighed, then shook his head, and said, "This odds are released by the Ningcheng Alliance Branch. ”

"Ningcheng Alliance?" As soon as this answer came out, Zhang Liang and the others immediately became dumbfounded.

Even, even Zuo Wu, who didn't take this odds to heart at first, frowned and was a little difficult to accept.

"Shouldn't the odds of the game be made by the spinach company? The official will even participate in the ** industry? Zuo Wu was very puzzled.

In fact, as early as his previous life, he already knew about the existence of the e-sports industry.

Although it is said that esports on the planet is still in its infancy, it is far less popular than traditional ** such as football. However, as far as Zuo Wu knows, there are quite a few League of Legends players who have had the experience of betting on matches, especially large-scale matches.

Just like countless people wandering on the rooftop during the World Cup, often the more grand and grand the game, the more people will buy **.

In the last few days of his previous life, Zuo Wu heard such a rumor: The reason why a certain domestic team, which was originally pinned on by the majority of players, failed miserably in S5 and was beaten home in the group stage, creating the worst result in the history of the Chinese team in the S series is because some players bet on their own games, and then deliberately release water during the game and lose the game.

Of course, this is just hearsay, and it is not very credible.

However, this can at least show one thing, e-sports has quietly developed and grown on the earth, and has evolved into an emerging ** project that can be compared with the traditional ** industry.

It is worth mentioning that in Zuowu's previous life, most of these ** companies with gambling properties were illegal organizations and belonged to the government's key targets.

This is not difficult to explain why he is so surprised, the key target in his previous life, in this life, even the official is involved, how can he not be surprised?

"The odds of regular matches are indeed officially released by the league." The answer of the deputy head of Chang'an confirmed Zuo Wu's guess. "However, the league is only responsible for releasing odds, and has not set up any handicaps, and all the best companies in the world are private capital and enterprises."

"Only responsible for publishing odds?" Zuo Wu was relieved at this time, if the official took the lead in developing the gambling industry, it would be too unusual.

"Okay, don't make a fuss, every regular game, the league will release odds according to the strength comparison of the two sides, even the group stage, but you don't know." An Shengjie said, "Do you remember the game with the Purple Phoenix team some time ago, if I remember correctly, the odds of that game were 1.15 to 9.76, they thought we didn't even have half of the hope, but in the course of the game, didn't you beat the opponent all over the ground to find teeth?" ”

"Whoever dares to underestimate us, we will beat him up and crawl all over the ground, isn't it great?"

Saying that, An Shengjie couldn't help but look at Zhang Liang and the others, he could understand the current feelings of the team members. In fact, the reason why he didn't tell everyone the odds of each game was because he was afraid that the glass hearts of these young players would not be able to withstand this kind of blow.

"The district chief has a point." Wang Xiao and the others cheered up at this time, but they were only a little better, including the captain Zhang Liang, who was still depressed and sad at this time.

After all, except for Zuo Wu, who came over, most of the other players in Tianhe can only be regarded as fledgling novices, even if it is the captain Zhang Liang, this is the first time to participate in the offline competition.

They don't have much experience or experience in the game.

In the opinion of Zhang Liang and others, before the group stage, because he and others had not played a few games, it was normal to be underestimated when facing those strong teams.

However, what makes it difficult for them to accept is that even after successfully qualifying for the group stage and sweeping the opponent with a score of 2-0 and neatly entering the semi-finals, the outside world is still so unoptimistic about their team.

In this case, it is like a painter who spends more than half a year painstakingly creating a painting, and then confidently takes it to the market to appraise it, only to get only one cabbage price.

There is no recognition at all.

People are emotional animals, who doesn't want the results of their efforts to be recognized by everyone?

I have to say that this disproportionate odds gave all the Tianhe players a heavy blow.

It must not be looked down upon!

Almost inevitably, everyone made up their minds to perform well in the semi-finals and do their best to win the match!

Whoever dares to underestimate us, we will beat them up and crawl all over the ground!

Unconsciously, deep in the hearts of the people in Tianhe, a flame that was rising wildly.

People don't fight, their hearts are the first!.
