Chapter 251: Lotting Group Ceremony
After the Samsung people came in, another team of people appeared, although they were far away, Chen Luoyang still recognized it at a glance, skt.
He was so familiar with the team that he could recognize it at a glance.
And this SKT and Samsung don't seem to deal with each other very well, seeing that Samsung is in front of them, they actually chose to take the initiative to give way.
Chen Luoyang smiled when he saw this, it was obviously a team in a division, but it had a grudge against killing his father, and it was like this in national competitions
Samsung and SKT also walked to the edge of the stage, subconsciously glanced at EDG, and met Chen Luoyang's eyes.
Although it was only for a moment, Chen Luoyang could feel the hostility
He can understand that EDG is a lingering nightmare for LCK right now.
"I'll go, you're here so early?" At this moment, Chen Luoyang heard a familiar voice.
Following the prestige, I found that the RNG starting five came with the coach, and it was UZI who spoke.
And there are a few people behind RNG, everyone is dressed to deal with, Chen Luoyang recognized it at a glance, IG.
Now the stadium became lively, and the teams from Europe, America and the wild card regions that had arrived took the initiative to greet the teams from LCK and LPL.
Although they all greeted each other, judging from their expressions and tones, there was still a big difference
When greeting RNG and IG, I am obviously more enthusiastic, after all, we have trained together for half a month and learned a lot from each other.
And the LCK side is a lot colder, so the attitude towards SKT is a little better, but it still can't be compared with the attitude towards EDG.
As time went on, more and more people entered the venue, and there was a clear sense of being divided into two factions.
The people in the LMS and Wild Card divisions are obviously closer to the LCK team.
The teams in Europe and the United States are more familiar with the LPL, and there are already two small circles on this stage.
After some small talk, several people with badges and cameras came over and began to communicate with the teams, except for the teams in Europe and the United States, the other teams brought interpreters, and there was no problem in communication.
So under the guidance of the official staff, the shooting began.
This shooting is equivalent to a documentary, mainly in the form of a monologue, let the star players of each team say a paragraph, briefly introduce the current situation of the team, and the outlook for the future, of course, these things are officially discussed with each team in advance.
These scripts are naturally not written by the team members, but are arranged with special clerks to be responsible, and the team members only need to be familiar with them.
The representative of EDG is naturally Chen Luoyang, and he was also arranged to be the first.
Not only that, but when filming began, the staff also pushed a prop out, a throne with a rather gorgeous decoration! Chen Luoyang was arranged to be filmed above, and the shooting process is relatively simple, after all, professional players are not professional actors, so the effect mainly depends on the photographer's skills and post-processing.
After Chen Luoyang accepted the shooting, EDG everyone stepped forward, and the director arranged the position and action, and filmed another section together, which was basically over.
After EDG everyone finished shooting, this time it was SKT's turn, and the status of the team was clear at a glance.
The most excessive thing is that after SKT went up, they all wanted to try to sit on the throne, but the staff came up and took it away, saying that they didn't need it.
The audience burst into laughter, and the EDG crowd was also amused.
Because there was a picture of all the teams shooting together at the end, the EDG people could only wait first, and the group came to the audience to find a seat.
I saw the director of the factory say: "How do you feel that there is a gap between the champion teams, this kind of treatment seems to have only SKT and Samsung before."
Ah Shui: "You said it was before, and now there should be no team that can match us."
Abu affirmed: "That's true, the S championship, the MSI championship, and then the spring and summer league championship, this record is not easy for other teams to break."
"And we have the highest win and win percentage, so everyone is a champion, and there is still a big gap. At this time, Chen Luoyang suddenly said: "We will have two champions soon, and the gap will only get bigger and bigger in the future." Factory Director: "Yes, the gap will only get bigger and bigger in the future, and now it's just the beginning."
Ah Shui: "I suggest that the number of S champions should be reflected in the future team uniforms, so that they can be distinguished from other teams."
Abu nodded after hearing this: "This is a good proposal, if you can win the championship this time, I can give feedback to the old way, get two small trophies on the team uniform, or some other pattern to represent the number of S champions."
Everyone was discussing energetically, and the sister suddenly interrupted: "Did you set up the flag like this?" Don't scare me, open the champagne at half-time, what if it rolls over?'
After hearing this, Abu immediately realized that he was a little carried away, and the players could swell a little, but he, the coach, must not swell, so he quickly changed his words:
"Let's talk about these things later, focus on the game now, and the draw will start in a few days, so be ready."
The EDG crowd nodded.
At noon, the staff sent takeaway for everyone to take a look, and the EDG people were not too picky eaters.
However, Chen Luoyang inadvertently heard what seemed to be complaining about something from the LCK, so he asked the translator:
"Do you know what the LCK people are talking about?"
This translator understands not only English, but also Korean, which is very necessary, and although it is said that it is a sworn enemy with LCK, sometimes it is necessary to communicate.
The translator said, "They still seem to be saying that they don't have kimchi and can't get used to it."
Hearing this, the EDG crowd laughed.
"Kimchi? Dude is kidding, right? What's so good about that stuff?" Ah Shui said with a smile, his voice was very loud, so that everyone in the LCK looked over.
Chen Luoyang also said: "Is this a way for the boar to not eat fine chaff?"
As soon as Chen Luoyang said this, EDG everyone laughed, in fact, he also learned this sentence from the Internet, but he didn't expect the effect to be so good.
EDG everyone laughed like this, and the people in LCK seemed to be unable to help it, and they didn't know what they were muttering, although they couldn't hear it, it was definitely not a good word.
After a short break after lunch, filming began again, and it was not until the evening that all the teams finished filming, and then the sixteen participating teams walked up to the stage together, and the director began to arrange the standing.
EDG, SKT and Samsung were placed at the front, and the three championship teams must be given some faces.
And EDG people are arranged in the middle of Samsung and SKT, and at first glance it is the location of Big Brother.
After standing up, Chen Luoyang glanced left and right, and found that the faces of SKT and Samsung were very ugly.
Chen Luoyang estimated that they must be very unconvinced, after all, everyone is an S champion, but the difference in treatment is so obvious.
It took half an hour, the filming was finally over, and the official staff thanked everyone on behalf of Riot, and then left.
Chen Luoyang and the EDG crowd were about to leave, when the staff in charge of the scene suddenly ran up and danced at the EDG crowd, looking quite excited.
The translator said, "They said they wanted to take a group photo and sign it."
"Okay." Abu naturally would not refuse, so under the envious eyes of the other teams, EDG everyone took a photo with the staff, and then came one by one.
Chen Luoyang became the busiest person, he simply posed first, and then the others took turns to take pictures with him, which was quite efficient.
By the time they finished taking a group photo, the rest of the team was gone.
EDG everyone left the competition venue together, got on the bus, and returned to the hotel.
Everyone had a meal together in the hotel restaurant, and then dispersed and went back to their respective homes.
Chen Luoyang returned to his room, this day is more tired than his fight for a day, Chen Luoyang chose to give himself a day off, watch LCK's game tonight, study their playing style and BP, Rank, and wait until tomorrow.
However, the plan could not catch up with the changes, and the next day, EDG people were called by the official again, this time to shoot materials at different attractions in San Francisco, and the staff said that yesterday's shooting was only a part, and today is the highlight.
There is no way, EDG people can only choose to cooperate.
Chen Luoyang suddenly realized that it is not easy to be in the top ten of the American service, the biggest problem is time, and there are too many official arrangements.
A week passed quickly, Chen Luoyang had just marked his number as a master, and the lottery ceremony began!
And Chen Luoyang was invited as a guest to represent the entire LPL division.
The official requirement to wear a team uniform saved Chen Luoyang a lot of trouble, and he didn't have to go out of his way to buy something like a suit.
That night, after dinner, Chen Luoyang walked out of the hotel with the interpreter under the guidance of the staff and prepared to rush to the competition venue.
As a result, as soon as he walked out of the hotel, Chen Luoyang saw a familiar figure, faker.
Faker is also accompanied by two people, one who appears to be a translator and the other who is a staff member
It seems that faker will also participate in this lottery ceremony and represent LCK
Seeing this, Chen Luoyang took the initiative to come forward and beckoned, which can be regarded as a greeting.
And faker's reaction was also relatively cold, just giving a professional smile.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps behind Chen Luoyang, and when he looked back, he saw two acquaintances, Pilson and Ah P! At this time, Ah P's hairline was not so exaggerated, and the whole person looked quite energetic.
Chen Luoyang had to sigh, the years are a pig-killing knife, such a good teenager, how can he become a master of the whole work in the future, a clown who jumps off the beam.
Ah P looked a little shy, Pilson took the initiative to come up to greet Chen Luoyang first, and Ah P followed.
After the two greeted Chen Luoyang, they noticed the faker not far away, so they stepped forward to shush Han and ask for a few warm words. After everyone greeted each other, Pilsen and Ah P still subconsciously walked to Chen Luoyang's side, and the three of them chatted without saying a word.
Faker wanted to talk to the two of them, but he seemed reluctant to come over, so he felt quite embarrassed.
After chatting at the door for a few minutes, an elongated Lincoln pulled up to the side of the road, the door opened, and two studio personnel walked down and took the initiative to invite Chen Luoyang and his party to get into the car.
Chen Luoyang took the lead in getting in the car and found a comfortable place to sit down, the other three and their interpreters then got in the car, Pilson and Ah P sat down next to Chen Luoyang, faker was unique and found a position farthest from Chen Luoyang.
Chen Luoyang thought to himself that fortunately, this car was spacious enough, if the space was a little smaller, faker had to sit on him, and the scene was probably embarrassing
The others didn't think much about him faker, after all, he was a loser, but he could feel that all LCK pro players, including faker, were hostile to him.
Chen Luoyang can also understand that he is now LCK's biggest enemy, and e-sports has always been the pride of their countrymen, and he is probably very uncomfortable to be defeated by his neighbors in this regard.
Soon, the extended Lincoln started, and the car drove slowly, as if it were cruising through the streets, and even in San Francisco it attracted a lot of attention
Half an hour later, the car stopped, and Chen Luoyang was once again taken to the competition site.
Under the guidance of the staff, I went to the backstage VIP room, and several staff members in the VIP room began to briefly introduce the rules to Chen Luoyang and his party, and the rules were also simple.
The group stage is divided into four groups, each with four teams.
So each of them had to draw four teams out and arrange them into four teams.
After listening to the introduction, Chen Luoyang waited for another ten minutes, and another staff member pushed the door in, indicating that he could go on stage. Chen Luoyang took the lead and walked towards the stage, and Pilson and Ah P followed behind Chen Luoyang quite consciously.
It's faker, at first he wanted to compete for the first, but seeing that the position was occupied by Chen Luoyang first, he had no choice but to let Chen Luoyang go first.
Chen Luoyang came to the stage, and there was a burst of cheers at the scene.
He didn't expect that there would be an audience at this lottery ceremony, but after all, Riot is a commercial company, and making games is not charity, so he must do everything he can to make money.
After taking the stage, Chen Luoyang stood aside and waited for the host to finish speaking.
The host was introducing one by one, and when he read his ID, Chen Luoyang chose to wave to the camera.
The audience cheered again.
At this time, the popularity of the official live broadcast room has reached more than 20 million!
The draw ceremony was broadcast live globally, and many people were not interested in this kind of show, but it was different to hear that the people in charge were the star players in each region.
As soon as Chen Luoyang appeared, the barrage began to brush:
"The Sect Master is here! The Master is here!
"The sect leader seems to be the first, so there is a row."
"That's like a faker, why don't you look reluctant."
"Is this the treatment of the world's number one order?"
"I hope to be in a group with SKT and stop SKT in the group stage first!"
"The number one seed can't be separated, what are you thinking?"
"Then put it in a group with Samsung and clean up the Korean team first!"
Everyone was discussing, the host had finished the introduction, and began to invite the delegates to the stage to draw lots.
Chen Luoyang, as the representative of the LPL division, was the first to be invited to walk behind the lottery machine and prepare to start the draw.
