"Congratulations to SKT for winning this game and getting them off to a good start in this MSI."

"Congratulations SKT!"

"A hearty... Slaughter. ”

Bang la blah.

The Oriental Sports Center burst into applause.

Miller, who personally shouted these words, had a mixed mood, and it was unprecedentedly heavy.

Yes, heavy.

Looking at the SKT of this game, the next RNG... How to deal with it?

Inside the playing room.

SKT took off their sound-isolating headphones, shouted "Nice" to each other, stood up, picked up their red and white coats, and walked out of the competition room.

Go to the opposite G2 competition room and shake hands in turn.

When shaking hands with the opposite single Kikis, who claimed to beat him before the game, Chen Yiqiu could clearly feel the other party's frustration and autism, and his palms trembled slightly.

"Come on."

Without saying much, just patting each other on the shoulder, SKT everyone walked out of the competition room as expressionless as ever, came to the center of the stage, and bowed to the audience.

Amid the sound of terror and applause, return to the background.

“Nice。”

"Nice, Nice, good play."

"Good start, boys, is a good sign."

Kkoma and the SKT coaching staff first praised SKT for their performance in their MSI debut.

Then Kkoma showed a straight face: "But remember, we can't take the opponent's mistakes as our strength as we should take." ”

Everyone nodded, and Bae Junzhi's eyes were in a trance.

Chen Yiqiu understood what Kkoma meant.

In this game, a discerning person can see at a glance that there is a clear gap in strength between SKT and G2 teams.

Staffing, intra-team communication, and even overall game thinking.

In addition, G2 has been working since BP, and the beginning has sent two big waves in a row.

If you were another team, you wouldn't play with them like that.

Chen Yiqiu, who has experience in another world, knows better that before the start of this MSI, the G2 voice in the European division once overpowered the CLG in North America.

It is known as the third and fourth strong teams in this MSI.

But in the end, it turned out that in this MSI, G2's strength and state were extremely stretched, and in the end they only ended up in the penultimate position.

Like the SUP in the wild card division, it belongs to the experience baby on this year's MSI, and anyone can abuse it.

The next thing they have to face is a strong team...

For example.

——RNG。

"Tomorrow, we are going to face off against RNG in the LPL home division."

Kkoma glanced at Chen Yiqiu, and said to everyone in an accentuated tone: "I don't care how you play today, you have to forget everything today." ”

"Tomorrow's victory, only win, not lose, as a finals, understand?"

Hearing the sound, Chen Yiqiu was stunned.

"Understood!"

"Coach, don't worry, you don't need to say it, tomorrow you will see my performance, if I don't hit the RNG down the road, I don't deserve to be Yiqiu's brother... uh..."

Halfway through Pei Junzhi's words, his voice gradually became smaller, and his eyes secretly glanced at Chen Yiqiu.

Chen Yiqiu glanced at him, but didn't speak.

"Don't worry, coach, it's not just tomorrow, this year's MSI, and the future S competition..."

Lee Sang-hyuk paused and said, "We will all do our best to strength." ”

"You..."

Chen Yiqiu thought for a moment and was ready to speak.

"Okay, it's none of your business, what does this have to do with you, shouldn't we win the game?"

Bae Junzhi pushed Chen Yiqiu: "Sit down, sit down, MVP is coming out." ”

"It's just that we're definitely going to win the game, and it has nothing to do with you."

Li Zaiwan muttered, picked up the apple on the table and showed off: "Oh yes, autumn, next time remember to invite us to Haidilao, I want to eat watermelon." ”

“…… I'll buy you a box. ”

Chen Yiqiu rolled his eyes.

I was inexplicably moved in my heart.

Although the management and training of the SKT team has been very strict... Even to the point of harshness.

It's so strict that a training machine like Bae Jun-sik can't stand it.

However, in private, Kkoma treats their group of players, especially the S6 team members, and is really like a patriarch.

And these teammates of his, too, are the best teammates in the world.

With that in mind, the MVP of the game is given.

In the end, among the candidates Reaper and Bang, the MVP was officially given to Reaper.

Although Bang played almost perfectly in this game, Olaf's visuals and gold content are no less than good.

"Yiqiu, LPL interview seat, come quickly."

Chen Yiqiu's plan to renovate SKT has been very effective, and the team leader at the door is concise and to the point.

For Chen Yiqiu, this is very meaningful news.

LPL Interview Booth...

This is the first time he has appeared on the LPL interview seat as a Chinese.

Everyone cleaned up, and the other SKT team members were also interviewed by LCK, North America, Europe, and Bend.

Put on the team uniforms, talk and laugh together and walk out of the lounge, ready to go to their respective interview seats.

Boom.

Across the hallway, the door to a lounge room opened.

The RNG crowd walked out stretching their waists.

"And this SKT is really strong."

"G2 is too vegetable, I can see it, G2 is an experience baby this year."

"I can't say that, Chen Yiqiu played well."

"It's good, prepare well tomorrow."

"Uh......"

The words stopped, and everyone turned around, just in time to meet the gaze of SKT and the others.

Chen Yiqiu, Su Xiaofei, and Xiaohu looked at each other.

Smiled and nodded, it was a greeting.

Xiaohu's faces were a little unnatural, there was a kind of embarrassment of discussing people behind their backs and suddenly being caught, and at the same time, looking at the SKT people in red clothes opposite, there was an inexplicable pressure.

A sense of oppression in the face.

What the hell is SKT...

With a stiff expression, Chen Yiqiu nodded, and the RNG people turned around and walked out of the backstage without saying a word.

“…… Go ahead, the interview is still waiting for you. ”

Lee Sang-hyuk pushed Chen Yiqiu and said in Chinese with a Dazuo accent: "Chen Yiqiu, come on." ”

"I'm leaving."

Chen Yiqiu waved his hand and walked with the team leader to the LPL interview seat.

……

LPL Interview Booth.

Yu Shuang, the newcomer who has just emerged this year, is taking a deep breath at the moment.

Next to her, the executive who managed the official host chattered and advised: "Be sure to behave in a friendly manner, so that he can feel the enthusiasm of our LPL." ”

"Be polite, you know?"

"Director, I see, I've written it all."

Yu Shuang nervously took out a small notebook.

"Well, yes, I believe in your business ability, come on."

The director nodded in satisfaction, looked at the time, and retreated into the background.

But he didn't leave, ready to personally 'supervise' the process of LPL's first interview with Reaper.

He has to do his best for the task sent down from above.

After a while, Chen Yiqiu, who was wearing an SKT team uniform, walked up to the interview seat and nodded briefly to Yu Shuang.

"Reaper, you... Hello..."

Yu Shuang looked at the young man in front of him with good looks and temperament, and had an inexplicable feeling of unattainability, and hurriedly said hello.

There was curiosity and exploration in his eyes, and there was a little bit of puzzlement.

Well... Privately, she prefers the RNG team.

"Hello."

Chen Yiqiu said politely.

"That's... Let's ask you questions about what you don't want to answer..."

Yu Shuang took out a small notebook and immediately communicated with Chen Yiqiu.

In the process of this exchange, listening to Chen Yiqiu's familiar Mandarin, the sense of 'unattainable' and distance that Chen Yiqiu brought to her gradually disappeared.

Let's be honest... Things have developed so far, after half a year of playing, Chen Yiqiu seems to have been tied to the legendary dynasty of SKT.

In the hearts of countless LPL audiences, 'Chen Sheng' seems to only exist in their daily mouths, but they can't see the real face, and there is a kind of distance and compulsion of 'they are a member of the SKT classic five'. I think the ID stamp of Reaper seems to be SKT.

As the host of LPL, Yu Shuang is in this circle, and she usually hears about the grievances between Reaper and LPL.

But it was only at this time, when she really came into contact with me, that she found out that the other party was indeed Chinese... Well, a strong Chinese.

Speaking and talking, it is completely different from most of the LPL players she interviewed, and it should be more logical and charming.

- For example.

"How did you feel about winning MSI in your debut and getting off to a good start in the first game back home?"

"Because I've been training hard for MSI, I have a sense of harvest now, and I think there can be more of a similar sense of gain, and we will continue to work hard to get this sense of gain."

"We can see that in the early stages of the game, including in the team fight, your Olaf had several exciting actions, what was your thought at the time? By the way, if the situation falls into a disadvantage, will you be anxious? ”

"In League of Legends, you only need to do a few good actions to erase all anxiety."

Chen Yiqiu replied.

The audience applauded thunderously.

Yu Shuang was silent for a moment and asked, "Do you know that you are now... Is it very popular in Japan? There are a lot of fans and viewers who support you, what would you say to those who support you? ”

Chen Yiqiu thought about it, looked at the dense Chinese audience in the audience, and said softly: "Actually... I've always had a thirst for the stage, and I've fantasized about playing in a crowded stadium with thousands of spectators in front of and millions of people watching online. ”

"Maybe I've now fulfilled my dream... For those who support me, I will repay you with the greatest kindness and humility, and I will give back to you with more and more exciting games. ”

- Wow!

"Don't race, we want you!"

I don't know which excited audience member in the front row shouted this sentence, and it happened to be recorded by the radio equipment.

Yu Shuang's face turned pale and turned to look at Chen Yiqiu.

Chen Yiqiu replied with a smile on his face and an explosion of emotional intelligence: "I don't dare to go back with you, I'm afraid that your boyfriend will beat me." ”

"Hahaha..."

The audience laughed.

Yu Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Chen Yiqiu in surprise, and said with a smile: "Then the last question, in the next game, you will have to face... The home team of the LPL, RNG. ”

"RNG is the champion of this year's LPL Spring Tournament, and they are strong, do you have anything to say to them?"

"Let's hope we can put on a good game together."

Chen Yiqiu did not shy away from it, and was calm: "Because I personally knew RNG well, I am looking forward to this showdown." ”

"Ahh ”

"Hmm... In competitive sports, the winner is king, and I will beat all the opponents who stand in front of us. ”

Rumble!

The audience was in an uproar, followed by thunderous applause.

Humble, courteous, and extraordinary.

Chen Yiqiu's interviews are always like this, and after a few questions, many LPL viewers who have come into contact with him for the first time have felt his unique charm.

But...

[I choose to support RNG. 】

[That's it, that's the end of today's SKT fan status, next, I'll be a glorious royal miscellaneous! ] 】

[RNG kill me hard! Dry crushed SKT! 】

[Blacks and whites, now you can be tightened by the wind, SKT can support him when he meets other teams, but RNG is fighting at home, whoever doesn't support RNG is not patriotic. 】

[Chen Shengzhen's arena is full of charm, but... Sorry, if you don't return to LPL for a day, you won't be able to get our approval. 】

[We? You represent yourself, except for the SKT vs. RNG match, I'm willing to be a Chen Za! 】

[A little disappointed, if Chen Sheng said just now that he was willing to come back...]

The barrage is surging, and the popularity is exploding.

With Chen Yiqiu's current public opinion environment in the LPL + today's game performance, he has undoubtedly proved himself personally and accumulated popularity.

But at the same time, when facing the only representative team of this year's MSILPL, the giant RNG that reached the top of this year's spring game, eighty percent of the audience in the LPL chose to support RNG.

That's understandable, after all, the home crowd supports the home team.

Chen Yiqiu didn't care about this, and after the post-match interview, he politely declined Yu Shuang's invitation to do a special text interview.

Chen Yiqiu returned to the backstage, waited for his teammates to come back, and went back to the hotel together.

The reason for rejecting Yu Shuang is not that Chen Yiqiu is biased against the LPL region, but that the time of the other party's appointment is very unfortunate, and the process is a bit too much, which coincides with his training time.

I really accepted it, I don't have time to train today.

Ten minutes later, the rest of the SKT people came back one after another, and everyone packed their things together, boarded the bus, and returned to the hotel.

……

Meanwhile.

Back office.

"Didn't he accept it?"

The supervisor who had retreated into the background and secretly observed asked Yu Shuang.

"No, he said it was training time."

"It conflicts with training time..."

The director touched his chin, a little pity: "I just want him to conflict." ”

"Huh?"

Yu Shuang was stunned.

"Okay, okay, hard work today, good interview, you can go back first."

The supervisor waved his hand.

"Director... I don't think Reaper really cares that much..."

Yu Shuang endured it, but still said how she felt after coming into contact with Chen Yiqiu: "He... He's really a pure player. ”

"Huh?"

The director was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled: "I know, okay, you go and get busy." ”

"Oh, good."

Frost exited the room.

The decision-making of the official high-level LPL is obviously not something she can touch and speculate.

"RNG has to win..."

"Winning SKT is a morale-boosting thing..."

In the office, the supervisor scratched his head: "Don't like traffic? Don't like money? ”

"The resources are not bad, a text interview, a video in the later stage, and promised to put it on the homepage of the national service alliance client for half a month... This treatment can be compared to EDG when it won the championship and skin activities. ”

Puzzled, the supervisor picked up the phone and prepared to report the matter to the higher-ups.

……

Inside the hotel.

After returning to the hotel, SKT did not even have time to rest, and immediately devoted all of them to the training session.

The coaching staff was equally energetic and began to analyze tomorrow's opponent RNG, as well as develop a series of BP plans and alternate heroes.

Until dinner in the evening, Chen Yiqiu and Li Xianghe went downstairs to eat together.

During this period, Chen Yiqiu caught a glimpse of Pei Junzhi not eating with food, and kept holding his mobile phone stupidly.

"Eh, eh!"

called the other party: "Halazi is about to fall into my bowl, why are you laughing there?" ”

"Huh?"

Pei Junzhi was stunned, and hurriedly reflexively covered his mobile phone: "Secret!" ”

"Oh, I see."

Chen Yiqiu already knows Pei Junzhi's character, this guy is definitely a sullen man hidden in the SKT team, and he is also a big traitor.

"Everyone said that they would be Chu Nan together and be single together, but you kid played this with us, right?"

"Huh? No, I'm not in love, you don't dare to talk nonsense, I'm miserable when Kkoma hears me! ”

Bae Jun-sik was so frightened that his face turned white.

Sitting next to Chen Yiqiu, who had been lowering his head to cook, Lee Sang-hyuk, who seemed to care about nothing, suddenly raised his head, and said loudly in a voice eight times higher than usual: "What are you talking about?!" Are you in love?!! ”

"Really?! Bae Jun-sik is in love?! OMG... Really fake, and with whom? ”

Chen Yiqiu immediately replied in a higher voice.

“…… Sanghyuk, Yiqiu, it hurts your brother's heart too much to play like this. ”

Pei Junzhi's face is like ashes.

"Ah, it turned out to be hosted with Park Ji-sun, I know I know, it's the translation of the LCK English stream..."

"Haha, I also know, it's the girl who looks good and has a very gentle personality..."

"Brother, there are few people here, my brother has knelt down for you, please stop shouting..."

Pei Junzhi cried with a sad face, his face was red and his neck was thick in anger: "Shout again, my brother will die tomorrow!" ”

"Hmph, just talk, if you don't talk, you don't talk, what's not to say about chatting with the young lady, and playing with us?"

Chen Yiqiu nodded with satisfaction: "Jun, you stinky boy, brother, don't I know your strengths and weaknesses?" ”

“？ Who do you call stinky boy? ”

"Huh? Did I shout it wrong? ”

"No, brother, I'm a younger brother, and you're a brother."

Bae Junzhi was convinced.

"Okay, play less, didn't you say you want to win the game tomorrow? Can you keep up with your energy? ”

Compared with the fight between Chen Yiqiu and Bae Jun-sik, Lee Sang-hyuk is really expressionless.

Damn it, damn it.

"Sang-hyuk, you're wrong about me!"

Who knows, when Pei Junzhi heard the voice, as if he had been stepped on by the tail, he immediately took out his mobile phone and handed it to the two: "I said I would help... If you win the game, you will win! ”

"What do you think I'm talking about? I'm asking for leave with Jixuan, saying MSI this time, don't bother me! ”

Chen Yiqiu and Lee Sang-hyuk were stunned for a moment, and then glanced over uncontrollably.

At this glance, the two were taken aback.

I saw the conversation between Bae Jun-sik and Park Ji-sun as follows-

Bae Jun-sik: "Don't bother me a few times these days, there is a very important game tomorrow, and this year's MSI, we also have a reason to win, hmm." ”

Park Ji-sun: "A very important game? How important? You won't lie to me. ”

Bae Jun-sik: "How can I lie to you a few handfuls, it's very important!" I have to win the game... It's more important than the finals! ”

Park Ji-sun: "Okay... Then we'll talk about that another day. ”

Bae Jun-sik: "How good are you...#¥@#%¥"

I didn't see the content in the back, and I was snatched back by Pei Junzhi.

But Lee Sang-hyuk and Chen Yiqiu have been petrified.

The former is because, I didn't expect to get along for only two days, Bae Junzhi is so sassy. The goods hooked up with others.

At the beginning, it was said that Chu Nan's sacred heart was shattered, his faith collapsed, and the demon king was furious.

Chen Yiqiu is simply because of the death dialogue between Bae Jun-sik and Park Ji-sun.

"You... It's not you, who taught you to talk to girls like this? ”

Chen Yiqiu was anxious: "Didn't you say it, a few handfuls are not good words, don't say it casually!" ”

"Huh?" Pei Junzhi was stunned, and hurriedly said: "No, it's Lee Jae-wan, Lee Jae-wan told me last time that he specially asked his Chinese friends and said that it was a boast... Assi! I know, Lee Jae-wan, son of a bitch! ”

"He lied to me!"

“…… Awesome. ”

Chen Yiqiu was speechless, and could only give a thumbs up.

What a pair of bad friends.

He could already imagine how many more red daozi would be on Li Zaiwan's three-hundred-pound fat body tomorrow.

In this way, in the wolf-like scream of Bae Jun-sik, SKT had no sleep that night.

Following.

Day 2 of the MSI group stage.

Early in the morning, SKT arrives at the Oriental Sports Center.

Enter the backstage venue to check in and start preparing for today's 'first showdown' with RNG.

Ask for a ticket, ask for a ticket
