1243 It's a Good Question
Nina was completely caught off guard by Ward's request, and a pair of beautiful eyes under the black-rimmed glasses suddenly widened in surprise as she looked at her de facto mentor in front of her.
But what she saw was an unprecedented solemn and serious look on the face of the man she respected the most.
Somehow, Nina suppressed the doubts and incomprehension in her heart, and nodded slowly:
"Okay."
In the training room of the Back team's training base apartment, Lin Xiao sat down in front of the interview seat and looked at Ward:
"Do you want to start now?"
Ward, who was sitting across from him, nodded:
"Let's get started."
Several crew members began to operate their own machines, responsible for lighting, and shooting and recording from several different angles, and couldn't help but be curious, and Nina, who followed up, was standing behind Ward, keeping quiet at the moment and not speaking, but her eyes were constantly scanning Lin Xiao and Ward's bodies back and forth, as if trying to see something.
Ward took a deep breath, his expression became solemn, and he slowly spoke:
"So, please introduce yourself first."
Lin Xiao paused when he heard this, then laughed, looked at Ward, and said slowly in a calm tone:
"I'm Lin Xiao, and I'm also wielding a scythe, and I'm also CN and Hook2."
"I'm the support and captain of Team Back."
"It's a ......"
"Esports pros."
In a calm and indifferent tone, someone's voice sounded slowly in the small room, and there was no other noise around him, and with someone's last self-summary words as if he was closing the coffin, the atmosphere in the whole room seemed to become a little solemn and solemn.
Nina couldn't help but shudder slightly when she heard this.
Because, when Lin Xiao slowly said the last sentence, she clearly saw a faint look of pride on the former's face, as if the whole person was bathed in a kind of light, and as if such simple and plain words were a solemn and solemn declaration.
……
"As the captain of Team Back, do you have confidence and confidence in the strength of your team at the World Finals?"
"I believe in the quality of our team, I believe in my teammates."
"But some of them are old and retired professionals, and some are pure newcomers who have just entered the professional world."
"Well, but they're still the best."
"Tell us what you think of the other strong teams in this World Finals."
"The two teams in the Korean NJ club are very strong, the North American team of SunnyDay and Knight, and the European team of KS and Ash team...... They are very strong opponents. ”
"Which of these teams do you think needs to be feared the most and are the most likely to be fierce opponents?"
When Ward asked this question, Lin Xiao's words paused for a moment, closed his eyes slightly as if he was in a short period of contemplation, and then reopened his eyes to look at Ward, smiled and gave the answer:
"Team Ash of Ashes, and Team NJwolf."
Nina, who was standing behind Ward, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, an answer that made her feel a little surprised.
Because of the strength of the NJwolf team, she naturally knows that last season's world champion, even the brother team NJseal, was defeated by the world's top and strongest team.
But......
Europe's Ashes-Ash Sentai Clan?
Can this new team that has just entered the European LCS league be on an equal footing with the NJwolf team in the mouth of the captain of the Back team?
……
But Ward didn't delve further into this question, just nodded slightly to show that he understood, and then moved on to the next question.
After all, he is a top professional who has worked hard step by step from the position of a reporter in the past, and every question raised by Ward in the interview at this moment is very clear and clear, and the words are also direct and sharp in tactfulness.
It seems that in such a seemingly ordinary question, Ward is unveiling all the veils of the Back team step by step, patiently and gradually showing the true appearance of the most amazing rookie dark horse in the Chinese LPL Professional League.
Nina's eyes flickered as she listened.
She couldn't help but look at Ward with an unconcealed admiration and admiration, this was the mentor she respected the most, this mature man with handsome looks and humorous conversation, and the strong professional ability that he possessed under his casual and uninhibited personality, even now she needs to be impressed.
It's as if ...... As long as this man starts the interview, the atmosphere and rhythm of the whole room will unconsciously fall into his control.
Lin Xiao, who was sitting opposite Ward, didn't seem to feel that kind of pressure.
Facing the sharp questions of the blond curly-haired man in front of him, the expression on Lin Xiao's face was still calm, and even with a faint smile, he took the questions that were thrown over one by one in an orderly and clear way, and then answered them calmly.
There seems to be a wonderful and indescribable tacit understanding between the two.
Between the questions and answers, it seems to be extremely skillful, even as if it has been rehearsed countless times in advance.
And the interview continued.
Finally, as if he was a little thirsty, Ward casually picked up the water glass beside him and took a sip, then paused, his eyes fell on Lin Xiao's body, and asked his next question:
"Last season, the Chinese team finished runners-up in the World Finals."
"Last season, we made it to the semi-finals."
"Going back further, I still haven't made it to the final."
"As a country with a huge base of tens of millions of League of Legends players, and as a professional region that was once favored, the teams from the Chinese LPL League have never won a world championship trophy."
What are your thoughts on this...... Or is it explained? ”
Nina was shocked when she heard this.
This question!
On the way to the Back team's training base before, she herself said this opinion to Ward, and even expressed her faint contempt for the Chinese LPL Professional League Division, and Ward at that time also advised herself that her ideas should not be so radical or extreme.
And now......
In this interview with the captain of Team Back, Ward actually took the initiative to bring up this question nakedly!!
Lin Xiao, who was sitting opposite Ward, didn't seem to expect the former to ask such a question, his eyes fell on the other party, but Ward at this moment had a solemn expression, and he also met Lin Xiao's gaze without evasion.
Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly.
Then, unexpectedly, he smiled slightly:
"Oh, that's a great question."
