Chapter 1: The Unexpected
Xiao Zhang let out a long sigh. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
This "secret history" of WE, this is really the first time he has heard someone talk about it.
In the past, when the major media talked about the glory of WE, they often focused all the spotlight on the five players such as Smile, and occasionally mentioned Tiab, as for the "terrifying coaching staff" in Smile's mouth, it seemed to be hidden in the dark corner of history, others did not mention it, and they themselves did not take the initiative to run out, as if they had just done a trivial thing.
Is this the hero behind the scenes?
Xiao Zhang's mood was suddenly a little complicated, he wanted to smoke a cigarette, but unfortunately the plane was non-smoking, so he had to ask the flight attendant for a cup of coffee to relieve his smoking addiction.
"Boss, are you sure you want to have a coaching staff?" Smile asked suddenly.
Xiao Zhang nodded.
"Don't worry, there will be no problem on the team, we will try our best to cooperate." The smile also saw the purpose of Xiao Zhang's initiative to talk to him about this matter, and gave him a reassuring pill first.
That being said, there was a flash of worry in his smiling eyes.
After thinking about it, he still reminded him: "Boss, the coaching staff ...... It's easy to get results when you get it right, and ideally, a few coaches with different specialties working together may give us an advantage in tactics and routines. But this is also a wild horse, once it is not well controlled, it will become an unstable factor in the team, and you have to make someone turn on your back! ”
Xiao Zhang's kindness with a smile can be understood, but he also considers the difficulties in this, Xiao Zhang nodded lightly, and his face was calm: "As long as I can produce results, I am willing to take this risk." ”
In his smile, he was somewhat dissatisfied with Xiao Zhang's coaching staff, not that he resisted, he just felt that it was unnecessary. Because through his experience at IEM, he recognized Xiao Zhang's tactical ability and training ability, including his control of the team.
In this case, Xiaoxiao felt that Xiao Zhang did not need to dig a hole for himself and introduce those redundant and unstable factors, which might destroy the atmosphere in the team that had been well integrated.
But he persuaded him, and seeing that Xiao Zhang still looked like he had made up his mind, he still chose to be silent.
……
Nothing to say all the way.
As soon as I got off the plane, the whole WE team was warmly welcomed by the fans.
These enthusiastic fans all learned the specific flight number and round-trip time of WE through their respective channels early, and rushed to the airport to pick up the airport a few hours in advance, holding slogans, and some of them also brought small gifts for the team members, shouting the names of their favorite team members.
Not to mention that there are hundreds of people, which is much bigger than the battle when WE came. scared Coach Xiao, who had never seen much of the world, and couldn't help but sigh: Good guy, even a first-line movie star is nothing more than that.
Some aunts who don't know why saw this battle and came up curiously, wanting to see which star this was.
Fans, plus the crowd of onlookers, as well as some e-sports media who heard the news, crowded the surroundings of WE.
It's another autograph, another group photo, and after a long period of trouble, it finally stands out from the encirclement.
The club sent a special car to pick up the airport, from Pudong to Fengxian is another hour or two away, and when we arrived at the base, it was already the afternoon of Beijing time, Coach Xiao did not delay much, just got off the bus and gave the players half a day off: "Rest, jet lag, resume normal training tomorrow!" ”
Xiao Zhang bought a lot of small gifts in the duty-free shop at the airport, from the players who couldn't go abroad to participate in the IEM, to the club's cooking aunts.
Especially the security guard Xiao Liu, after he thanked Xiao Zhang and accepted the gift, Xiao Zhang dragged him to chat for a while.
Of course, there must be smoke in the chat, and of course the smoke must be the soft white and red plum.
Water purification building, of course, Xiao Liu is also a die-hard fan of WE, and he can smile with a flower on his face: "Coach Xiao, we watched the game live broadcast, one game fell, the game was so beautiful, and in the end I almost didn't cry!" ”
Xiao Zhang smiled, talked to him casually, and suddenly asked, "In the past few days since we left, is the team okay?" Nothing happened, right? ”
Xiao Liu was a little dazed: "Huh? What's going on? I don't know! ”
"Oh, that's good, that's good!" Seeing his reaction, Xiao Zhang was also relieved, what he was worried about was nothing more than that some team members would run out of the base without permission, or fight or something.
After a few more idle words with Xiao Liu, Xiao Zhang returned to his office and turned on his mobile phone.
League of Legends Champion Coach, open!
"Ding Dong!"
"Congratulations, you led your team to win the IEM championship and completed the main quest 'Last Stand'! Degree of Completion: Perfect! ”
Seeing the word "perfect", Xiao Zhang somehow remembered Zu Lan and Venus that orchid fingers.
"From the moment you win the championship, the system automatically enters the maintenance state, and the remaining time of maintenance: 16:26:31... Please be patient. ”
Not maintained yet?!
What a moth!
Xiao Zhang pursed his lips, he was very dissatisfied with the behavior of the system dropping the chain at the critical moment. You know, his time is very tight, and the day after tomorrow, that is, March 20, he will play OMG. On the next 21st, hit LGD. 22nd, royalty.
For three days in a row, every game was a tough battle.
After a few days of rest, the four teams of EDG, King, EP, and GT, plus the first three rounds, make a total of seven BO2s, except for the last two games of EP and GT, which may be a little easier, are almost always tough battles.
Can you lose?
I really can't!
With WE's current record of almost total defeat, if you want to break into the playoffs with the top eight results, you really have to be cautious in every game, otherwise, you can only go to the relegation game with the LSPL team if you are not careful.
Let the smile and strawberry who finally came back go to play the relegation game?
Xiao Zhang was the first to refuse!
However, the system is not powerful, so I just choose to maintain it at this critical time.
Coach Xiao couldn't help but sigh: Alas, this ghost schedule is really difficult!
……
Just when Coach Xiao had a headache, the news of WE winning the championship gradually began to ferment in the circle. Some people call the return of WE "the return of the king" and have high hopes for them. And some people are dismissive of this, saying that IEM is a "rookie pecking at each other", no gold content, and even Huya is said to be a false appearance, to put it mildly, IEM and LPL are not comparable, WE's championship does not mean that it can really sweep the country.
Shanghai, EDG Club.
The promise of training extra weekdays looked a bit unusual today, and instead of playing in qualifying, he leaned back in his chair and watched the video of WE against T_S_M expressionlessly.
After that, Promise found out the videos of WE's other games on IEM one by one, and he watched them very carefully, and he would rewind and watch them a few more times in key places.
"I didn't expect you to come back."
"I didn't think you'd win the next World Championship before I did."
"Unexpected...... You and I have one day before we meet again on the professional stage. ”
"I'm really looking forward to it!"
Promise glanced at the LPL points table hanging on the wall.
His EDG, riding the dust, topped the table with a huge lead.
WE, last in line.
On the schedule, April 3, WE. Vs.EDG!
PS: I'm really sorry, I've been so busy these days. I finally took some time to code a chapter today.
