The next day, there was another sign under the WT Club's electronic countdown timer, a slogan they hadn't shouted for a long time: For the prize money.

When I was in the campus competition, I was also a strong player, and the new establishment of the WT team was also bottomless, but Chen Chuxiao shouted the slogan "for the bonus" at that time, and then the WT team soared into the sky, although there were ups and downs and setbacks along the way, and there were times when they doubted themselves, but when they were competing in school, it was their most innocent time.

Now hang these four words on the wall, not really for the bonus, but to remind yourself how happy you were at the beginning, the top is the fiery and nervous countdown, and the bottom is the joy and nostalgia of youth, with these four words sitting in the training room, everyone feels a power from the heart.

Time is walking unhurriedly, as more and more foreign friends appear in front of the E-sports Stadium in H City, the date of the World Finals is finally approaching, the WT team has been busy these days, mainly because there are too many interview invitations, but fortunately, the training has been completed, and everyone's mentality is in the best position, so it is easy to cope with the many interviews, and then simply made a small press conference form.

Led by the WT club, with the OMG team and the EDG team, the audience is a major media, there are traditional media who pay attention to this event, more are e-sports media, and answer the questions in the form of taking turns to ask questions, each team has a spokesperson, which is basically served by the captain, but the WT team still arranged for Lan Yu to come forward, because there are foreign media in the audience, and the questions are basically in English, but Lan Yu doesn't need a translator very much, and TSM and C9 communicate so much, Let's not talk about how much the strength of the team has improved, but this English level is indeed much higher.

A media from North America is an old acquaintance of the WT team, when the WT team shined in the professional game, it once received an invitation from a multinational interview, it is this media, Lan Yu still remembers the logo of their magazine, and after that interview, the magazine also mailed the interview fee and magazine samples, which are still placed in the desk of the WT team's training room, together with those large and small trophies.

So when it was their turn, Lan Yu smiled and stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture, and when the reporter stood up, Lan Yu kindly reminded the other party that he could directly conduct an interview in English, and he would also answer in English, so there was no need to trouble the translator.

This reporter is a woman, in fact, many professional players, including players, are not too strange, and every time the version is updated, a girl will invite Riot and members of the professional team in North America to study the meaning behind the changes in this version update, and how the members of the professional team will evaluate the impact of this update on competitive competitions, and by the way, some suggestions for improvement.

This time, I came to China as a special reporter for that magazine, and I slowly stood up and expressed my gratitude to Lan Yu for saying that he wanted to be interviewed in English.

"Mr. Lan Yu, I know that you have a good personal relationship with C9 and the TSM team, but this time the TSM team is unfortunately assigned to the 'death group' with you, do you have anything to say about this situation?" The reporter's sister asked seriously, this question is also the most concerned issue for many North American players.

C9 and TSM teams in North America often mention the WT team on the other side of the ocean, and even C9's Hai and TSM team's Dyrus and the person in charge of the orangutan team have a particularly high evaluation of the WT team, thinking that they are really talented players, and it is the high opinion of these bigwigs that makes more and more North American players interested in the WT team, and even once the training match of the WT team and the C9 team was secretly Po on the video website, which also caused a good response within a certain range.

Lan Yu has been listening carefully, this question is not difficult, but Lan Yu knows that this question is not simple, and after clearing his throat slightly, he smiled and said: "If I said that there would be no WT team today without the TSM team, you will definitely think that I am exaggerating the opportunities of the two teams, in fact, it is true, when we were still very weak, we went to the North American server to train and met the TSM team by chance." ”

"I've always felt like the pro is on top, but when I messaged Dyrus to play a friendly match, he said yes, it was important for us, but we lost badly, and after that, we developed a Clockwork style based on Dyrus's instructions, which helped us win a lot."

"As for being in a group, I think it's a kind of fate and opportunity, the little brother who used to be unknown has finally grown to the level where he can compete with the big brother, I believe that the TSM team will cherish this hard-won opportunity as much as we do, and if possible, I hope that our two teams can work together to qualify from Group B."

Lan Yu's answer is very decent, and the English pronunciation is also very standard, while answering the question, the reporter girl in the audience nodded silently, she knew that sending these answers back would cause great favor among domestic fans, and if the WT team is lucky enough to rush out of the group stage to the United States to participate in the quarterfinals, I believe there will be many teams over there who are willing to cheer for them.

Director Wang Zhiguo of WT Club, including H City E-sports Division, also knew Lan Yu's answer through a translator, and his eyes were full of appreciation when he looked at the stage.

Next, the teams received a lot of questions, some level of media will ask the team whether they have some corresponding preparation when facing a specific team's certain style of play, while some media directly ask how the team is prepared, wasting the opportunity to ask questions.

But all in all, this press conference is quite sincere, with more than an hour of question time, and no matter which team's spokesperson is asked, they are all serious answers, after all, most of them are domestic e-sports media, and they also want to sell these three teams to the audience on the largest scale when this prosperous era comes.

At the end of the press conference, every media outlet was given the opportunity to ask questions, and after returning home, there were drafts that could be published, and the questions from the major media and the answers of the players were intertwined, at least for the duration of the World Finals.

Three days before the start of the World Finals, all the professional teams in each region will fall in H City, drawing on the precedent of the previous World Series professional players who failed to arrive in time for various personal reasons, this time they came to China three days in advance, H City not only has high-end hotels to sponsor accommodation issues, but also arranges many tour guides, and the tourist attractions in H City and even some surrounding areas have been explained in detail in English, so that it is convenient for the members of these teams to choose where to go for sightseeing.

To put it mildly, some teams are basically determined to be tourist teams, and coming to China to see is also the wish of many foreign professional players, so they will naturally not waste a great opportunity, as a landlord, the WT team has received all the visiting professional teams throughout the process, especially the three teams in Group B are familiar with each other in advance.

Although e-sports is a competition, but also in the game to win, outside the game everyone is not very young teenagers, the oldest is only in their early twenties, more are still some eighteen or nineteen half-old children, still half-aware of society, after the initial confusion and tension, soon familiar with the lively, some teams are equipped with translators, some do not, everyone simply uses half-baked Chinese or English to communicate, although it is a little difficult to speak, but it is full of fun.

In the next two days, in addition to the professional players who arrived in advance, the commentary and broadcast teams from various countries also came one after another, and the relevant parties of H City began to contact the relevant parties of H City for online broadcasting matters, and they were also busy with their own affairs, and they followed the tour guide arranged by H City to enjoy the night view of H City in the evening.

I have to say that H City is really talented, after all, there are well-known B universities in the country, there are elites who learn all kinds of languages, and they are also familiar with H City, and they can fully adapt to tour guides.

From a city ranked among the top cities in China, H City has finally begun to open its doors with a broader mind, showing the most beautiful side of H City to players all over the world who care about this competition, and even H City TV has signed a documentary with North American TV stations that combines the various beauties of H City and Los Angeles.

The WT team is also scattered to accompany some teams to go to various scenic spots, although everyone is from H City, but many places have not been there, especially Yuan Xiaoye, every time he goes to a scenic spot or eats a certain food, the excitement is even more than that of foreign friends.

This made Yan Xue, who accompanied her, smile and shake her head from time to time, the relationship between the two is not a secret, although Yan Xue is a few years older than Yuan Xiaoye, but Yuan Xiaoye's personality is out-of-the-box, while Yan Xue is much more mature and calm, and the two of them are very compatible together.

Of course, the main reason why the Lantern Festival did not become a laughing stock was because those foreign teenagers exclaimed louder, even if they saw a fluorescent kite flying hundreds of meters high in the park square, they would stop and talk.

A few days before the start of the World Finals, this group of foreign professional players liked the various "sugar-coated shells" arranged by H City very much, and they had a lot of fun, but when they returned to the hotel at night, they all turned on the computer to play a few games, and they all had full-level accounts in the national server, but they didn't play much ranking, but most of them played big chaos.

Some media reporters or commentators have friends with the accounts of these foreign players in China, checked their game records, and found that they basically lost......

The world's top professional gods have been abused by domestic primary school students, and this topic is also very exciting.

However, these gods are only familiar with the feel and operation, the competition is about to begin, the feel must be guaranteed to be hot, and the day before the start of the game, all the members of the professional team went to the e-sports hall to feel the machinery and equipment officially arranged by H City, the evaluation is very high, ultra-high configuration and fluency and stable network environment, all aspects have met their requirements, and there is no longer doubt about China's ability to host such a large-scale event.

In addition to testing the machine, the major teams basically watch the first day of the opponent's game video in the final sprint, each club has a special intelligence officer to collect the game video of the world's major regions, and you can also draw many regional differences in game styles, such as the Korean team is basically elegant, while the Chinese region is relatively calm and ruthless, and the North American team is imitating and learning South Korea's style of play these days, and the European region has some agility.

In short, although it is the same game, but because of the different styles in various places, it also gives the game a different sense, the WT team is also carefully studying the video of their opponents on the first day, after the group list of each group comes out, the order of the match is also released, according to the competition system, all three Chinese teams will play on the first day, and there will also be some play-offs like individual heads-up matches.
