Chapter 123: The Big Devil King!World number one!I specialize in number one in the world! 【Subscribe】
[PS: It is better to watch this chapter with BGM, recommend BGM: The legend never goes out]
But when he thought of making a phone call, the second elder would definitely come to see him, and he estimated that he would leave for Guangzhou soon.
"Let's talk about it after we arrive in Guangzhou..."
Thinking of this, Xu Cheng walked down the steps.
"They're all multi-millionaires...let's go out and eat something delicious..."
"Hey, Xu Cheng, Xu Cheng!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded not far away.
Xu Cheng turned his head to look.
Spotting Rita in an aqua blue dress waving at him.
"Hey, why are you here?"
"I can't come."
Rita came closer and looked Xu Cheng up and down: "Hey, let me tell you why you look so unhappy, have you been scolded by the coach?"
"Excuse me, we're on vacation today." Xu Cheng rolled his eyes.
"Hey, I know, so I'm here."
Rita smiled and said, "How about it? Go out and play?"
"You came to play with me?" Xu Cheng was surprised.
Since his identity was "exposed", he has not been in touch with Jimei for a long time.
"Yes, I think you don't have many friends in Wuhan by yourself. There are so many relatives and friends in EDG, and I haven't seen your family, so I thought you must be bored today, so I came here to take you out for a stroll."
"Um…"
Xu Cheng was a little moved, "Sure enough, it's Rita who treats me best!"
Rita: "(`へ*)ノ"
"Let's go, I'll take you to see, Wuhan Science and Technology Museum or East Lake Ocean World? You can choose the place yourself."
"You are quite familiar with Wuhan." Xu Cheng asked curiously.
"That's right, I came here to travel." Rita said triumphantly, "Today, I'm sure I'll make arrangements for you clearly!"
"Really...but I'm hungry now." Xu Cheng blinked.
Unexpectedly, Rita's eyes lit up: "Really? Then let's go eat!"
"...Why do I feel that your reaction is not right?" Xu Cheng was very vigilant.
"Can I still sell you? Really." Rita said very annoyedly: "Is it okay if I invite you? You are stingy."
Pointing to the aunt in Shanghai not far away, he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go buy two cups of milk tea first, what flavor do you drink?"
"I didn't ask you to pay for it." Xu Cheng said, "Whatever you want, just buy it as you see it."
"Casual, have you always been so casual?" Rita complained, and the two walked outside the milk tea shop together.
After ordering two cups of taro pearl milk tea.
"By the way..." Although it was very impolite, Rita couldn't help her curiosity like a cat's paw: "Speaking of money, it has been rumored that your net worth has skyrocketed these days, has EDG asked you to talk about it? "
Xu Cheng didn't hide it, the main reason is that this matter can't be hidden for long in the circle: "We talked about it."
"Really? Then how much did they raise your salary?"
Rita blinked: "Uh...you don't have to answer, if it's inconvenient, just give a rough idea, I'm just curious."
"1500."
"what?"
"1500 million, an annual salary of 1500 million."
Rita was stunned, and looked at Xu Cheng: "Did you just tell me directly like this?"
"Otherwise?" Xu Cheng was surprised.
"Oh... no, I didn't expect... How much did you say?! 1500 million?! RMB?"
Rita was both surprised and a little touched in her heart.
Because although the annual salary of star players has always been in a semi-public state in the circle, after all, the market is there, and anyone can find out.
But Xu Cheng didn't even hesitate and told him directly, which still surprised her.
But soon she realized that she was taken aback by the number Xu Cheng said.
1500 million? ?
How long has it been since Xu Cheng made his debut, and it's only a matter of a few days before he became famous.
Four group games, 1500 million? !
An average appearance fee of 375 million per game? !
"Otherwise, can it still be Vietnamese Dong?" Xu Cheng was speechless: "Usually, you are quite smart, why are you acting like an iron fool?"
"No... just... this... a lot!"
Rita opened her mouth wide, still digesting the explosive news.
1500 million was played in four games. If this is spread to the outside world, it is estimated that it will cause a lot of pink eyes.
"Then... aren't you a multi-millionaire now?"
When the milk tea was ready, Rita handed Xu Cheng a cup and looked him up and down.
"Yes, so you should be more polite to me in the future. After all, I am also a person with an ID card." Xu Cheng took a sip of milk tea and commented: "It's okay, next time I have to drink Huaxiangyuan's milk tea ..."
"Tsk tsk tsk, put it on, put it on."
Rita shook her head and sighed: "This is really unreasonable. I worked so hard to explain a game, and it was less than 1000. You can earn more than 100 million a month. People are more popular than people."
Having said that, Rita didn't feel disappointed at all, but told Xu Cheng instead.
"You can't be so careless. Tell everyone the truth. If someone asks you about your annual salary in the future, don't answer directly. Be careful not to be missed!"
"I'll keep it a secret for you, too. Thank you soon."
"Thank you, Sister Feng."
Rita almost spit out the milk tea she just took a sip, her eyes widened: "What did you call me?"
"Sister Feng."
"...Master Cheng, you are so kind."
"Hehe, that's fine, sir. If you really want to be my junior, you can call me Dad Cheng."
"Son, come to mother's arms, mother loves son."
"Mom, can I have milk?"
"Go eat fart..."
The two walked towards the distance while talking.
From time to time, I also made a few jokes.
The setting sun stretched the backs of the two very long.
……
Rita brought Xu Cheng to a relatively high-end guild-style restaurant.
The two took a taxi all the way and arrived at the restaurant after half an hour.
As soon as she entered the door, Rita said very familiarly: "Is the food served in box 208?"
"Not yet, you said you were waiting for someone, are you going now?" the waiter asked, looking at Xu Cheng with a strange look.
If one is not enough, then two, then a third...fourth...
Xu Cheng looked uncomfortable.
When he went upstairs with Rita, he asked, "Why is anyone waiting? See, you know this place very well, have you already booked it?"
"hey-hey."
Rita smiled and said nothing.
The elevator door opened, and Xu Cheng was directly pulled to the door of the box.
Through the door, Xu Cheng could already hear the voices of many people talking.
"Dangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdang! Everyone! See who I brought here?!"
Rita yelled excitedly.
The noisy box was instantly quiet.
They all looked at Rita and Xu Cheng at this side.
then…
There was a scream in an instant.
"Ahhh!!"
"Murder?! Is it Murder?"
"Fuck, Lord Buddha!?"
"It's really here?! Buddha! I drop Buddha!"
"Hurry up, come in, how can you let Buddha stand here..."
A large group of commentators and hosts from the LPL competition area in the box, as well as a few commentators from other competition areas, all stood up and welcomed Xu Cheng in enthusiastically.
Only then did Xu Cheng realize that there were still many acquaintances in the box.
For example, Yu Shuang, Xiao Yu, Sister Tuozi, Xi Ran, and Ren Dong in the [Female Bodhisattvas] group chat are all there.
I haven't had any contact with him in private, but he brags about himself on the field, and the doll Miller is also in the crowd.
From the looks of it, these people should be planning to eat here...
Or rather waiting for him to come.
"Wow, Rita, you are too good, you said you could call Murder, and you really did!"
Xiran looked at Rita with admiration, and cast her admiration on her face.
Others also looked excited.
"Well, I didn't lie to you, did I? Isn't it Murder? In our group back then, she was my good sister... Well, here comes my good brother! If I make a call, will he not give face?"
Rita looked at the crowd very proudly, and patted Xu Cheng who was surrounded by black lines: "Cheng Cheng, say hello to everyone."
"Hello everyone."
I already knew that this woman would not find me for no reason...
Although he was speechless in his heart, Xu Cheng still gave Rita a lot of face in front of outsiders.
Greeted one by one with these people in the box.
"Sit down, sit down, it's a rare visitor, I didn't expect the Buddha to come today."
What words?Regulars!
Wawa is a little expert at adjusting the atmosphere, and said: "We thought Rita was just joking, but we didn't expect her to go out for a trip, and she really pulled you here!"
"I've heard that Rita and Buddha have a good relationship in private..."
"Ahem...um!"
Miller coughed twice to remind the doll who was about to speak nonsense.
"That is, it must be good, the two of them have a good relationship."
Who knew that Yu Shuang on the other side had spoken, and suddenly said in a strange way: "Murder doesn't give face to anyone, and he can't help Rita..."
"Um…"
"We don't know the taste of Buddha, Lord Buddha, what do you like to eat..."
The group of people at the dinner table, in addition to a few front-line commentators and hosts of the current LPL, there are also many small commentators and hosts who have no chance to be on the stage of the S game.
Like corgis, hallucinations, a sister B, etc...
Whether it's a first-line player or a small coffee shop, seeing Xu Cheng here now is really like a fan meeting.
In fact, this is the same as an alternative fan meeting.
On such a grand stage as S7, the general commentator can only watch the players play on the court at best.
Except for the top few people, there is basically no hope for private contact.
After all, the players don't know who you are, and they still have competitions and training matches to play.
And a star player like Xu Cheng, who exploded in Carry in S7 and played famous scenes in every game, was a top popular player, not to mention that everyone could get in touch with it.
Doll Miller has been raving about Xu Cheng recently, because they really really like this player.
Meeting in private and having dinner together at this moment, these two big names in the commentary class are not to mention how excited they are.
"Buddha, let's work hard for the next game!"
"LZ is not easy to play, but we will always support you!"
"Really, with Buddha's talent and performance, I think even if there is no chance this year, after strengthening next year, I will definitely be able to achieve results!"
"A toast to Buddha!"
Xu Cheng substituted cola for wine and had a drink with everyone.
He has been very low-key, constantly saying thank you to people.
"So I heard that the Buddha is easy to get along with in private, and he really has no airs." The baby couldn't help but said.
"That's right, I think Buddha is more handsome than the camera at close range, what do you think?" A small commentator said.
"...Brother, although you are telling the truth, why do I feel a little licking..."
"Que, it's too licking, but it's worse than me..."
"Hahaha……"
A very pleasant meal.
Being accompanied by so many people, although it was the first time we met, also dispelled the loneliness in Xu Cheng's heart.
In the middle of the meal, the owner of the restaurant came over and added some dishes, and asked Xu Cheng for his autograph.
It seems that he should have recognized Xu Cheng.
After the meal, when everyone was about to pay the bill, the boss quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no, I'm a fan of Murder, so let's treat this meal as my invitation to everyone."
"How can this work, there are so many of us, it's quite expensive."
"It's really not necessary."
At this time, many young waiters, including passers-by outside, couldn't help but probe their brains and surrounded them.
The boss looked at Xu Cheng and said with a smile: "I have been a fan of you for a long time, Lord Buddha. When you were not playing professionally, I watched your OB live broadcast. I went to watch your game live yesterday. Really, you played That's great!"
"Thank you..." Xu Cheng thanked.
"Come on for the top eight! I will always support you!"
"That's right, come on for the quarterfinals!"
"Support EDG!"
"Come on, EDG!!"
"Come on, EDG!!"
"Buddha, come on!"
"Buddha beef batch!!"
Many people followed suit, and finally they started shouting in unison.
Seeing this scene, Rita, Wawa and others felt uncomfortable and inexplicably proud.
They had also been here just now, and these people also recognized them.
A few people came over to ask for autographs.
But there are not so many... let alone such a big momentum.
In just a few minutes, it felt like the entire restaurant was blocked by people.
Commentators and hosts usually face a lot of people, but this is the first time for a few people to experience this kind of close siege and contact in reality.
This feeling... is the feeling of a real star!
Xu Cheng's popularity in Wuhan is...too high.
"Well, I'll take a photo with everyone."
When Xu Cheng saw more and more people gathered here, his heart beat a little and he shouted.
"is it okay?"
"real?!"
"I'm going to the front!"
The offer got a lot of responses right away.
Xu Cheng and these people came to take a group photo.
Then I took a photo with the shop owner alone, and deliberately put the name of the shop on it.
"This... is this really okay?" The boss was excited and embarrassed.
"Your endorsement fee is very expensive now, right? I'm afraid I can't afford it..."
"It's okay, it's free."
Xu Cheng said kindly: "Thank you for your support to EDG, LPL, and me all the time!"
"Okay...then let's go first."
After everything was done, it was almost dark, and Xu Cheng also planned to leave.
Starting tomorrow, we will enter the normal work and rest and start intense combat readiness training.
Everyone in the store was satisfied, and no one stopped Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng and the others walked out of the store.
They have been walking far away, and they can still hear many shouts of "Come on EDG" and "Come on Buddha top eight" from behind.
Although very messy, Xu Cheng's heart is very warm at the moment.
"A lot of people actually support EDG... There are also a lot of people who support you."
Xiao Yu, who was walking with Xu Cheng, stopped, and a taxi was already waiting beside him.
The two haven't been in touch for a long time, but now they are familiar with each other like old friends.
"You... Come on for the top eight, no matter you win or lose, I will always support you!"
"What you said, why are you like my fans?" Xu Cheng looked at Xiao Yu with a smile.
"Who said I'm not your fan?"
Xiaoyu originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he said: "LZ is a hopeless opponent, don't put too much pressure on him recently, you are still so young, it doesn't matter if you come back next year."
"Yes, at worst, come back next year."
Rita's voice suddenly sounded.
Wrapped in a thin windbreaker, she walked over and threw a pendant to Xu Cheng:
"Last time, there was a fortune-telling and selling Guanyin under the overpass. They said that one would get one free. I thought that the male wearing the Guanyin and the female wearing the Buddha, this is also a free thing. It is useless if I want it, so I will give it to you... I hope it will be available in the future. Shanghai, BJ... commenting on your game."
"Huh?" Xu Cheng was taken aback.
Xiaoyu next to her stared wide-eyed, looking at Rita with an expression of "you play me".
Xu Cheng didn't notice this, and opened the box to have a look.
Inside is a pair of crystal clear white jade Guanyin.
Jade is warm and moist, warm and cool to touch.
Even someone like Xu Cheng who doesn't understand jade can tell that it is a good piece of jade.
"Throw it away if you don't need it, it's all free stuff anyway."
Rita saw someone coming from behind, quickly waved her hand, turned around and went back.
"Then you... Come on."
Xiao Yu was not in the mood to stay any longer, feeling complicated and angry, and went back to find Rita to settle the score.
The evening wind was blowing, Xu Cheng looked at the backs of the two who had already started fighting.
He looked up again at the stars in the sky.
There are many stars, but the most dazzling ones are always only a few.
Today's weather is very good, it is an unforgettable day.
He is not alone at all.
"gone."
Shake your head.Xu Cheng got into the taxi.
Big deal come back next year...
Unfortunately, I don't want to come back next year.
This year will do.
Me, seize the day!
……
When Xu Cheng returned to the hotel, it was already late at night.
All the teammates are back.
Everyone had a smile on their face.
Presumably a short time to relax, everyone is doing well.
We didn't talk too much, everyone knew that the real hard battle was still to come, so we went back to the room to rest very early.
Before going to bed, when Xu Cheng checked Moments, he saw the latest update of Rita——
[Buddha said that Jade Guanyin can guarantee a prosperous career and a bright future.Let me tell you, these are all lies! 】
Xu Cheng smiled and gave Rita a thumbs up.
And leave a comment below: [What the Buddha says doesn't count now, what the Buddha says counts. 】
Turning off the phone, instead of watching Rita's bombardment, Xu Cheng fell asleep peacefully and easily.
……
The next day.
All EDG members have re-entered a state of intense training and preparation.
The coaching staff did not rest yesterday, and made a training plan for the offseason for EDG in the past few days.
Throughout the day, everyone in EDG spent in the training room.
On the third day, everyone packed up their things, and together with RNG and WE, they boarded the plane to Guangzhou early in the morning.
The boss, Ed Zhu, accompanied him.
After arriving in Guangzhou, the three teams separated.
Under the leadership of the boss Ed Zhu, everyone in EDG first had a meal in a very luxurious hotel before moving into the official hotel.
Settle in for the night.
Next, EDG began to formally conduct training programs in Guangzhou.
There are a total of six days in the offseason.
In the next few days, other teams from other regions that advanced to the quarter-finals also landed in Guangzhou one after another and settled in the official hotel.
Time passes day by day.
With the opening ceremony of the quarterfinals approaching, the e-sports atmosphere in Guangzhou, a bustling international city, is gradually getting stronger.
It is exactly the same as the original Wuhan.
Audiences from all over the world, local Chinese audiences, regardless of whether they bought tickets or not, began to gather in Guangzhou.
Compared with the "slow pace" in reality, the public opinion and popularity on the Internet during this period have begun to soar uncontrollably.
S7 initially showed signs of phenomenal events.
2017 Global Finals Quarterfinals, Quarterfinals.
This is the real highlight of the annual S competition.
There are countless famous scenes and reverse famous scenes that everyone is familiar with.
For example, "Horse Stepping on the Flying Arrow", "4396", "EDG0/4" and so on... These are the classic names of the century.
All from the stage of the quarterfinals.
At this stage, the competition system has also changed from BO1 in the group stage to a more intense and passionate BO5.
At the same time, because it is related to the promotion places for the semi-finals and even the finals.
The attention of the quarter-finals can be said to have completely killed the group stage.
Eight out of sixteen teams have been eliminated.
The remaining eight teams became the protagonists that all audiences around the world focused on.
10 month 17 number.
There are still two days until the opening of the quarter-finals.
On this day, the official announced the latest world player rankings, as well as the team ranking list.
In the list, EDG is officially ranked second to last on the list.
Just one place higher than FNC.
In the player list, EDG's five starting players are not ranked very high in their respective positions.
Only Xu Cheng stands out and is officially ranked No.5 in the world's single player rankings.
The top four are: Khan, Cuvee, Huni, 957.
This ranking can be said to be very high.
Because the ones in front of Xu Cheng are the world's top top laners who have been famous for a long time, have championship honors, and are recognized by the global audience.
only…
Judging from the actual situation and Xu Cheng's superb performance on the field not long ago, this ranking is unfair.
In particular, Huni ranked third among them, which caused a lot of controversy.
[Huni can be ranked in front of Buddha?Who was hammered by Buddha in the group stage? ? ? 】
[The official old Koreans are mixed, and the three Korean top laners are all in front of Buddha, which is outrageous. 】
[One thing to say, South Korea's top laner is indeed the only one in the world, Khan is also acceptable in the front, Cuvee hasn't played against each other yet, but what the hell is Huni? 】
[The ones in front are all drainage brats?Don't know the difference between BO1 and BO5?But I also think there is a problem with Huni's ranking, not Murder's problem. I think the leg brother should be ranked ahead of Huni. 】
[Three Korean top laners, and one leg brother, except for Huni, this list is still convincing...]
[Isn't Buddha this year's top laner? !Officially, this is too outrageous! 】
[Boldly speaking, is it true that the leg brother is the number one order in China?Doesn't Buddha's performance in the group stage kill him instantly?He is the number one in LPL! 】
[What honors have you won?I wonder if Brother Leg didn't perform well enough in the group stage this year? WE5/1 qualifying is not better than EDG4/3? 】
[Cold knowledge, Buddha's four-game winning streak, EDG's record is 4/3, but Buddha's record is 4/0. 】
[Laughing, is this the beginning of a cut with the team? 】
The list has caused a lot of controversy.
Because Xu Cheng defeated Huni in the group stage, and some Xu Cheng fans think that the official ranking of Xu Cheng in the top five in the world is a bit low.
But some people think that BO1 and BO5 are completely different. Xu Cheng has only played four group matches, and he was directly promoted to the top five in the world in four games. What is there to be dissatisfied with?
This is where the scolding war comes from.
The quarter-finals are still two days away from the start. Not only the players and teams are nervously preparing for the battle, but also the audience outside the field, and even the commentators and officials are full of gunpowder.
Smoke filled the air.
And at this critical moment, a person who was unexpected by everyone ended up.
He is someone who has nothing to do with this controversy, but has a little connection——
EDG's opponent in the quarter-finals of this year's S tournament is also recognized as the world's number one top laner. Xu Cheng's biggest "opponent" this year——
Khan.
Brother man.
After the list was released, Riot officials specially interviewed the man who ranked first.
Mentioned the current world player ranking list.
Brother Hanzi first nodded to express his approval of the list, and then said: "But I think that the top laner in Korea will always be the strongest in the world."
The media also asked Brother Hanzi how he viewed the quarter-final match against EDG.
Brother Hanzi was as arrogant as ever: "The LPL team will never be able to win the global finals. EDG bears the brunt. We are not worried about the game against EDG, because EDG's historical results in international competitions show that they have always been others. stepping stone."
"The Chinese division will never win the championship!"
This sentence can be said to be full of firepower, and instantly angered everyone in the LPL competition area, including the officials!
After the interview, LZ's official media issued an official apology that night, and Brother Hanzi shaved his head for this to express his apology for his slip of the tongue.
But this is still difficult to calm the anger of everyone in the LPL division.
Can never win the championship!
How contemptuous and disrespectful are these words that can be said?
Although the LPL division has not won the S championship for so many years.
Can't even touch a corner... Now everyone's biggest expectation is to break through to the top eight.
But these words are too arrogant, so arrogant that the officials can't stand it.
However, there are also foreign audiences and commentators who like Khan's troublesome personality.
A well-known North American commentator even supported Khan in public: "The reason why Khan is called the world's number one top laner is not only because of his fierce and perverted personal strength, but more importantly, perhaps because of his arrogance."
"Only people with this kind of personality are qualified to be called the number one in the world!"
"A player, a top laner, pays the most attention to manipulation and fighting. A hot temper often makes this player's style more aggressive and bloody."
"Some time ago I heard that someone called Murder in the LPL division the number one top laner in the world... Forgive me for laughing. It is undeniable that Murder's operation is very strong, as powerful as a god, but his character determines that he will never Can't be number one in the world."
"LZ is the strongest team this year. They sanctioned the overlord SKT in previous years. This is a phantom team that has never appeared in history, a super dynasty!"
"In the quarter-finals, LZ will play against EDG, it's not too much to open ten times!"
LZ plays EDG, ten zero open!
As soon as these words were spoken, it caused a great shock in the world.
But what is unexpected is that many people think that there is nothing wrong with this probability.
Almost everyone in Europe, America and South Korea thinks this way.
Even Guan Zeyuan, a well-known commentator in the LPL division, agrees with it.
Of course, the colonel's approval was more tactful.
The statement he gave is also very rational - Buddha is very strong, and there is nothing wrong with his personal ability being the best in the world, but LOL is a five-player game. Do his other four teammates have LZ tops?
This is a super dynasty that can beat SKT 5/3 in BO1.
Even so, it aroused the anger of countless LPL viewers.
Everyone is not optimistic about EDG playing LZ, and some people even think that there is no hope of winning at all.
But that's just everyone's rational opinion.
In addition to rationality, everyone can also be emotional!
The reason why people are human is because they have feelings, and sometimes they are even more emotional!
No matter how bad EDG is, he is still his own child.
You've worked so hard to get out of the theory, but when it comes to you, it's only [-] points for Nima?
It’s fine if the commentators and players from outside the competition area say so, but you, a commentator from the LPL competition area, think so?
Why don't you go to the LCK as a commentator?
Han Zashi hammered!
All of a sudden, the colonel's Weibo was directly blasted, and the speed of light was sprayed on the hot search list.
Happy to mention the title of "Park Zeyuan"!
And the matter is far from over. Many radical viewers even went to the outer competition area, tweeted and argued with fans in Europe, America and South Korea.
Things got so big that even everyone in EDG in training knew about it.
But these news are not important to them.
Players only need to pay attention to the next game.
Not everyone likes to work and have sex like Brother Hanzi.
It's just that during the training period, it is inevitable to tacitly increase the training intensity with each other.
Ten open...
People are angry.
[-] to [-] odds are too insulting.
This means that if EDG and LZ play a hundred games, they will lose a hundred games!
The most scientific probability is never so outrageous.
The incident continued to ferment and spread more and more widely.
Spectators, commentators, and even officials from all competitions around the world left the field one after another to cheer for their respective teams.
For a while, the popularity soared, the traffic soared, and the attention was full.
It’s not lively.
But this is actually just an episode of the S7 offseason.
A small episode has aroused heated discussions around the world, causing such a terrifying heat.
Now, even an idiot knows that this year's S7 has exploded!
People who don't watch the game are starting to understand and pay attention to this event.
Guangzhou in reality.
It is also gradually boiling during the nearly one week of fermentation!
The main road leading to the Guangzhou Sports Center is crowded with people every day, and the nearby hotels, Internet cafes and other entertainment venues are even more crowded.
Some hotel prices even rose to sky-high prices.
It is more expensive than the price during the National Day period.
What's even more outrageous is that even so, the rooms in the surrounding hotels will fill up quickly.
It is difficult to live nearby for a few days.
All kinds of shops in the surrounding area and the small booths leased outside the square have all become support objects related to S7.
There are countless scalpers wandering around every day, and every time they appear, they will be looted by countless audiences.
Earn a lot of money.
The popularity of S7, as if it had grown countless tentacles, began to spread silently across the country and every corner of the world.
The reality and the Internet will be gradually affected, and we will finally complete this peak feast of carnival at the end of 17 together.
In such an explosive atmosphere, everyone is waiting.
Waiting for the opening of the quarterfinals and the day when EDG takes the stage.
10 month 18 number.
There is still the last day before the opening of the quarter-finals of the 2017 Global Finals.
That night, someone suddenly discovered the landmark building in Guangzhou.
Known as the tallest tower in China, the Canton Tower, a national 4A-level scenic spot, suddenly appeared a huge team logo of EDG!
In the dark night sky, the Canton Tower standing in the center of Guangzhou is shining with neon lights, and the tower body surrounded by colorful colors is like the most beautiful mountain in the night.
On the top of the tower, the black team logo of EDG flickered.
Like a master standing above the stars.
Canton Tower cheers!
This may be the most famous support in league history.
Canton Tower's 1-minute support is [-] soft sister coins
And today's Canton Tower, EDG's team completely dominated the whole night!
No one knows how much the aid cost.
Some of them calculated.
In addition to the EDG team logo that first appeared, the personal makeup photos of EDG players appeared on the top of the Guangzhou Tower in turn.
Xu Cheng and the factory manager appeared the most, almost occupying the prime time of the whole night in Guangzhou!
[Fuck! ! EDG! ! 】
[Guangzhou Tower welcomes support!Isn't this too ostentatious? ! 】
[Mom, I'm so stupid, 1 a minute, how much will Ed Zhu spend today? 】
【...I can only say that you are rich and self-willed. 】
【How are you sure Ed Zhu did it? 】
[? ?new driver?Don't know Ed Zhu's identity? 】
[EDG is playing in Guangzhou, which means that they have completely returned to their natal home. 】
[Wuhan is my husband’s family, Guangzhou is my mother’s family! 】
【Foye and the factory manager are really famous this time, the Guangzhou Tower dominates the screen overnight, and everyone in Guangzhou can see them...】
[It's really outrageous, but this time I stand on EDG! EDG rushes to Grandpa!Destroy LZ's dog head! 】
[The blood boils watching, Canton Tower's support is the best response to Ten Zero Open! 】
The support of Canton Tower has completely pushed the popularity of EDG and this year's S7 to an unprecedented peak in history!
On the night before the opening of the quarterfinals, the Guangzhou home court gave EDG and all teams in the LPL division the best gift!
That night, everyone in EDG accidentally looked up during training, and they could always see themselves... or their teammates on the top of the tower standing at the highest point.
No one spoke. It was the last night and they needed to train harder.
The rest of EDG didn't bother them either.
Ed Zhu never showed up, but his support was felt by everyone.
"I hope... there will be a good result tomorrow."
Abu looked up at the sky, among the stars in the sky, is there a name...
What about EDG?
He didn't know, but the answer would be revealed soon.
The next day.
10 month 19 number.
Everyone in EDG got up and had a simple meal, then took the official bus and arrived at the Guangzhou Stadium.
During the period, because there were too many people outside, the main road was blocked, and the bus stopped for half an hour before moving on.
After getting off the car, everyone didn't have time to experience the unprecedented crazy scene.
Under the leadership of the staff, they walked into the competition venue.
at the same time.
The live broadcast channels of the various competition areas around the world were also connected in the morning, and the live broadcast of the quarter-finals of the 2017 Global Finals was carried out.
As soon as the live broadcast was connected, the popularity in the live broadcast room soared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In less than 5 minutes, the popularity of the Dousha live broadcast platform directly reached an unprecedented [-] million+.
Breaking through the record of the last day of the group stage, fully doubled!
And this is just the beginning.
With the passage of time, the servers of some small live broadcast platforms even appeared to be paralyzed and stuck.
In major media forums on the Internet, the topic of #EDGVSLZ# began to soar, and the number of discussions exceeded [-] million.
It fully demonstrates the style of today's game——
Fire before starting!
When the time came to exactly three o'clock in the afternoon.
The staff on the major stages ahead are all ready.
Popularity is at its peak.
Spectators who had been crowded outside the square for a long time began to enter.
……
"Wow, there are more people today, it feels more lively than when I was in Wuhan."
In the Guangzhou Gymnasium, near the front row, a group of young men and women gathered.
These spectators are the same as other spectators, the only difference is that they all hold cheering objects with "Murder" in their hands.
These people are all fans who came to the scene to cheer for Xu Cheng.
The leader of the organization was Xu Cheng, that fan-headed lady.
Her name is Yu Wannian, and although she looks lolita, she is a sophomore.
"Guangzhou must be more lively than Wuhan, after all, it is the quarterfinals."
Yu Wannian looked up and looked around, and said a little excitedly: "There are so many people who came to cheer for the Buddha today!"
"That's right, Lord Buddha is very popular recently, and it's not just us fans. Many people came to the scene to support him today." The fans next to him nodded in relief.
Because they are all Xu Cheng's first batch of old fans, they can be regarded as witnessing Xu Cheng's growth with their own eyes.
From unknown to famous all over the world.
At this moment, I am somewhat honored.
"However, Buddha played Khan today... Before the match, many people said that Buddha is not Khan's opponent, which made me very nervous."
"I don't like that Khan. He may be really strong, but his words are too arrogant, and he even mocked Buddha."
"That can't be helped, the number one in the world, one day Buddha will become the number one in the world, I think it's understandable to be so crazy..."
Everyone chatted and chatted, only Yu Wannian kept looking at the time and the exits for the players to enter.
"Sister Wan, what are you looking at?" Someone next to him asked curiously.
"I'm waiting for the Buddha to enter the arena, why haven't he entered the arena... I haven't seen him for several days."
"And..." Yu Wannian said with some anticipation: "I heard that the Buddha is officially invited to make a promotional film this time. This is the first time that the Buddha has appeared on the big screen. I really look forward to what the Buddha will look like in the camera..."
Appeared for the first time.
During the group stage, Xu Cheng showed his face. For a few seconds, these fans were really looking forward to the promotional video of this year's quarter-finals.
hum.
While talking, the bright venue suddenly dimmed.
Immediately afterwards, the spotlight in the center of the stage flickered.
The Guangzhou Gymnasium was quiet for a second, and then there was a terrifying scream——
"It's about to start!"
Yu Wannian's face tightened, and she immediately looked at the big screen.
The dimly lit big screen turned on at some point.
A BMG that everyone is familiar with and has goosebumps all over the body when they hear the prelude sounds.
S7 theme song.
The legend never dies.
On the banks of the great river, the sun rises and the tide ebbs and flows.
An exquisite and elegant summoner's trophy appeared beside the river.
Standing quietly.
As if waiting for the appearance of the person who will take its laurels.
In front of the pavilions, BDD in LZ walked slowly among the flowers and bushes, looked up at the sky, and the voice-over sounded:
"I don't think people will remember you just because you reached the quarterfinals."
"In order to be remembered, you have to continue to perform well on a higher stage."
Looking at the camera, there was a passionate voice in English commentary:
"BDD is here!! Unstoppable! LZ, this is the strongest team this year! No one, they won the last game of the group stage, winning six consecutive victories! NO! LZ, they are going to smash their way to the championship All the teams!!"
The Yangtze River Bridge, the montage perspective switch, opposite the Guangzhou Tower, the head of Samsung Ahn turned his back to the camera, looking alone at the top of the highest standing Guangzhou Tower.
It was as if he saw the glory of the ten sons of Samsung in the past.
"To be in the quarter-finals is a feat in itself, but we were in the final last year, so we have to be in the grand final this time too!"
The camera rotates, Guangzhou under the night, high-rise buildings, and neon lights flashing.
"Congratulations to WE!! 5/1 first qualifying in the group stage!"
The doll screamed.
The brother-in-law of WEADC leaned on the overpass alone, watching the people coming and going under the car, and the traffic was surging.
"Our opponent is a Korean team, the opponent is very strong, but we will do our best to prove that we are the strongest..."
BGM gradually entered the first climax.
Murder, the top laner of the EDG team, appeared in front of the camera.
Leaning against the railing under the Canton Tower, the dark pupils reflect the bustling night scene of Guangzhou.
The stars twinkle, and there is always the brightest one rising.
A clear and pleasant voice sounded:
"The global finals are the best stage to prove the player's own strength. I just want people to see that I can compete with these world-class players, I can beat them, and let everyone see how I play..."
"One day, I will stand on the highest stage."
The stars are shining, I stand among the stars!
At the bottom of the steps, the FNC team's sister-in-law walked towards the top step by step.
"People's evaluation of me is polarized, although I have appeared in the World Championship many times, but every time I have to prove myself again and again..."
A close-up of his side face, his eyes are full of loneliness and unwillingness.
In the center of the Guangzhou Gymnasium, there are colorful lights, and there are many commercial center buildings.
The support players of the MSF team looked up at the towering tall buildings.
It's like watching the various opponents they faced in this year's global finals.
He said vigorously: "It is a success for us to reach the quarterfinals, but I don't want to stop here. If we beat SKT, we can become famous all over the world!"
"Everyone will remember us!"
BGM came to the last climax.
Huni, dressed in a white team uniform, walked in front of the camera, indifferent and proud.
Just like SKT's attitude of being proud of the world.
Just one simple sentence.
"The name SKT itself is equivalent to a laurels."
The sound gradually decreased and gradually disappeared.
The camera came to the end.
In the dark, Shan Xiaohu in RNG walked up the steps wearing a hoodie.
"I think it's just a process from the group stage to the quarter-finals."
Walk to the top of the steps, stop and turn around.
"No matter what sport it is, what everyone remembers...is always the champion!"
Bang! !
After the words fell, the classic fist logo appeared on the big screen.
With a punch, the screen shattered.
All the star players from all over the world gathered together, and the event was unprecedented!
Accompanied by the crazy screams and cheers of tens of thousands of people in the Guangzhou Stadium.
The quarter-finals of the 2017 Global Finals have officially begun!
The host Ren Dong appeared, and the two teams that played against each other today, EDG and LZ, played separately.
After the appearance, the commentary took over the camera.
When the time came to four o'clock in the afternoon, the camera cut.
The commentators most familiar to everyone appeared in front of the camera with smiles on their faces.
"Welcome to the quarter-finals of the 2017 Global Finals, this is Guangzhou, China! Hello everyone, I am Doll!"
"I'm Miller!"
"Hi everyone, I'm Duoduo...!"
Whoa!
Seeing these three people off the field, they immediately cheered like crazy.
"Wow... I just found out at the scene today that the audience in Guangzhou is no worse than the audience in Wuhan." Waowa sighed.
"It's all the same enthusiasm!" Miller nodded.
"Then... I believe everyone has been waiting impatiently for a long time, EDG vs. LZ!"
"This is also the opening match of this year's quarter-finals. Today, two of the world's top giants will be here to present a wonderful peak duel for audiences all over the world!"
"Yes... Then speaking of EDG and LZ, I believe that many of the audience who came to the scene today came to support EDG..."
Wawa smiled and said, "After all, it is our No. [-] seeded team in the LPL division."
"But what I want to say here is that the LZ team is definitely the strongest opponent EDG has encountered so far!"
"I think today's game... is really the most difficult battle since EDGS7, even more difficult than the 0/3 start of the group stage!"
Several people were talking, when the Guangzhou Gymnasium suddenly felt like an earthquake, causing a terrifying sound.
The starting members of EDG and LZ teams are here!
The shots were given to the top laners on both sides.
Miller couldn't help taking a deep breath: "LZ...EDG, the reason why EDG's game is difficult today has a lot to do with the top laner!"
"That's right, everyone knows about LZ's top laner, Khan...I don't need to say more about this guy's strength, everyone who has watched the LCK finals this year knows it."
"One-handed signature Jess, hammered SKT's scalp is numb, he is the well-deserved No. [-] Jess in the world!"
Wa Wa said: "Yes...he is officially designated as the world's number one top laner, and his personal strength is indeed the world's number one."
"In the six group matches this year, he beat his opponents in every one of them. His personal ability is outrageous!"
"As the outside audience said, Khan might be the only top laner who can stop Murder."
"We are all familiar with EDG...Murder is currently the most stable and biggest carry point in EDG. If you were on another team, I don't think EDG's top laner would lose."
"But facing Khan, I can only say that Buddha is under a lot of pressure. If he loses his voice, it will be the most fatal for EDG now!"
Miller rationally analyzed: "Someone can contain your strongest carry point, but you can't contain LZ's carry point! In this way, this game will be extremely uncomfortable and difficult for EDG. !"
"Talk about Buddha's most famous hero...in fact, there is also Jess...but I probably won't take it today."
Wawa looked at Xu Cheng in the camera, even though she really wanted to say something to him.
But it was outside at ten o'clock, which showed that the public opinion situation was tense.
I can only say: "I just hope that EDG can give more strength in other positions today. If other positions can stand up when the top laner is really misfired, our chances of winning will be even greater!"
"That's right, and we have to target Khan in BP. This person's personal ability is too scary, especially if we want to ban Jess, we must not let this person get Jess."
The baby repeatedly emphasized: "Khan's Jess is completely ahead of the single level in the world, and he cannot be released!"
"After all, Jess is number one in the world...um..."
Announcement from the director ahead.
The baby cheered up: "Then the players ahead are ready, let's not talk much, let's enter today's first match of BO5 together!"
After the words fell, the director switched cameras.
Come to the BP interface.
In this game, EDG is on the blue side and LZ is on the red side.
As soon as it came up, EDG targeted and banned several signature heroes of LZ.
Syndra, Lulu, and the blind man.
LZ is also targeting EDGban players here, but they don't care too much about the top laner position.
Other teams need to pay attention to the top laner when playing EDG, but for LZ, the last thing they need to worry about is the top laner position.
Because Khan is the biggest carry point of their team!
Squeeze out Scout's enchantress, the factory manager's pig girl, and the last spear of revenge.
"No ban on Jess... EDG didn't ban Jess, and LZ didn't ban any of Murder's signature heroes..."
"I feel that both sides... are very confident."
Miller said worriedly: "But I still think that Jess should be banned. Unless we grab it ourselves, the other side will definitely take it..."
"Is it possible to snatch it? There are still many versions of powerful heroes out there, and you don't take the prince's little gun?"
During the discussion among the crowd, EDG's first choice also came out.
Reasonable, unexpected.
Version strong AD, small cannon.
As soon as they confirmed it, Liz immediately locked Jess and the prince in seconds!
Whoa!
In an instant, there was a burst of cheers from the audience, and the wailing voices of countless LPL audiences.
"Wow... This, locked directly?! Jess!"
"Sure enough, Jess was locked in seconds...LZ, they are waiting for this hero!"
Miller's eyelids twitched.
Whether LCK's Jess is strong or not may be a question mark now after Murder turned out.
But Khan's Jess... is definitely the only one in the world.
His Jess can really hit all LPL singles and burst their skulls!
At this time, the director's camera also specially showed the man who locked Jess in seconds.
Brother Hanzi had a trademark mocking smile on his face, his big bald head that had just been shaved was shiny, and he made a gesture of a pistol towards the camera.
Whoa!
The uproar grew louder.
"Khan, it's time to wake up! This guy just started gesticulating!"
The baby screamed, and in his heart he really wanted to fuck the other party, but there was nothing he could do.
"...Actually, we were able to snatch it just now. Buddha's Jess is also a signature, and he used it in the group stage before, and his performance was very exaggerated!" Wang Duoduo felt a little regretful.
"But with Jess, LZ can get more versions of heroes, which is not worth it... Alas, let's see what top laner EDG will choose for this game."
Miller frowned and said, "As soon as this Jess is locked, I feel that the Buddha may have a hard time in this match."
"Yes... then let's take a look at EDG's next selection."
The offseason is very long, and both sides have made a lot of preparations before the game.
And to be honest, LZ really doesn't need to hesitate too much when playing EDG.
Therefore, the BP on both sides proceeded very quickly.
In the second round of ban selection, EDG decided to play the wild wine barrel in their fourth hand.
When it came to the fifth hand, that is, the choice of the upper unit, it immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the world.
The EDG people in the camera also seemed to be a little hesitant, discussing something all the time.
"Which one should I take? In the second round, LZ defeated Jian Ji, how about Qinggang Ying?" Waowa suggested nervously.
"Qinggang Ying is not good at beating Jess, if you use Qingsteel Shadow to beat Khan's Jess, then you will be hammered on your own initiative." Miller shook his head, thought for a while and said: "Is there any hero who doesn't suffer too much online? Woolen cloth…"
"The selection time is almost over... Is EDG still not sure? Uh!"
As soon as the words fell, EDG on the field finally negotiated properly, and revealed the last hero in the unit——
"Only I can lead us to victory!"
Red armor, bloody, bloody axe.
This is……
Hand of Noxus - Darius? !
The hands of elementary school students? !
EDG didn't hesitate, and locked it in seconds!
"Nuoshou?! Locked! Confirmed! EDG, the last top laner, chose Nuoshou?!"
"No way... my God...!"
In an instant, the commentators and the audience in each competition area of the audience opened their mouths wide and were stunned.
Promise...
This Rank hero does not match the professional league at all.
Actually appeared in the first opener of the quarterfinals?
Or to beat Jace?
Nuo hit Jess...
Still playing Khan's Jace.
Isn't this looking for death?
"Hehe, the little Buddha on the other side is so generous, how dare you hit me, Jess, with your hands?"
In the internal voice of LZ.
Seeing this, Brother Hanzi immediately lived in Bengbu.
Unlike other LCK players, he is familiar with the abstract culture of the LPL division.
Therefore, one mouthful of Little Buddha can be called fluently.
"Then it seems that he doesn't know your Donghe's strength!"
"I suggest giving him a little LZ shock!"
The teammates ridiculed one after another, and the state was very relaxed.
"Hehe, if I hit Nuo with Jess, I can smash his dripper with my feet!" Brother Hanzi directly slapped his face.
"... I really don't understand what you said about Que Shi. What does it mean that the player on the other side was selected by Nuo? Do you think we are those weak teams?"
"Okay, okay, the selection is over, the kid on the other side of Donghe Education has been bragging about him in the country recently, he's too crazy, it's really annoying..."
……
the other side.
EDG internal voice.
"Brother, you are so brave!" Ming Kai directly gave a thumbs up.
Although it was discussed before the game, it may not change his face. In this kind of game, Jess, who played Khan as a player,...
It can only be said that Buddha's father is Buddha's father.
Super brave!
"It's not that scary, number one in the world, right? I specialize in number one in the world."
In this atmosphere, Xu Cheng, who has always been low-key, couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Rarely speak wild words.
"Okay, sure..."
Talking.
After EDG locked the promise, LZ also directly determined its mid laner hero, Rock Sparrow.
So far, the lineups of both sides have been completely settled.
The game screen starts loading.
The most exaggerated and terrifying cheers and screams since the start of this S game were also heard from the field——
"That's how it is... I remember that Buddha used the Nuo hand in this year's Intercontinental Competition... But now that it has been so long, the situation of the version has long been different..."
"Anyway, EDG should have its own ideas. Let us look forward to Buddha's performance together. Then... the quarter-finals of the 2017 World Finals, which has attracted billions of people, has begun..."
"Who will come out on top, let us enter together——Summoner's Canyon!"
The words fall.
2017 Global Finals Finals BO5 [-]st match officially begins!
Twenty-eight thousand words burst!Tired and vomited o(╥﹏╥)o ask for a guaranteed monthly pass!
(End of this chapter)
[PS: It is better to watch this chapter with BGM, recommend BGM: The legend never goes out]
But when he thought of making a phone call, the second elder would definitely come to see him, and he estimated that he would leave for Guangzhou soon.
"Let's talk about it after we arrive in Guangzhou..."
Thinking of this, Xu Cheng walked down the steps.
"They're all multi-millionaires...let's go out and eat something delicious..."
"Hey, Xu Cheng, Xu Cheng!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded not far away.
Xu Cheng turned his head to look.
Spotting Rita in an aqua blue dress waving at him.
"Hey, why are you here?"
"I can't come."
Rita came closer and looked Xu Cheng up and down: "Hey, let me tell you why you look so unhappy, have you been scolded by the coach?"
"Excuse me, we're on vacation today." Xu Cheng rolled his eyes.
"Hey, I know, so I'm here."
Rita smiled and said, "How about it? Go out and play?"
"You came to play with me?" Xu Cheng was surprised.
Since his identity was "exposed", he has not been in touch with Jimei for a long time.
"Yes, I think you don't have many friends in Wuhan by yourself. There are so many relatives and friends in EDG, and I haven't seen your family, so I thought you must be bored today, so I came here to take you out for a stroll."
"Um…"
Xu Cheng was a little moved, "Sure enough, it's Rita who treats me best!"
Rita: "(`へ*)ノ"
"Let's go, I'll take you to see, Wuhan Science and Technology Museum or East Lake Ocean World? You can choose the place yourself."
"You are quite familiar with Wuhan." Xu Cheng asked curiously.
"That's right, I came here to travel." Rita said triumphantly, "Today, I'm sure I'll make arrangements for you clearly!"
"Really...but I'm hungry now." Xu Cheng blinked.
Unexpectedly, Rita's eyes lit up: "Really? Then let's go eat!"
"...Why do I feel that your reaction is not right?" Xu Cheng was very vigilant.
"Can I still sell you? Really." Rita said very annoyedly: "Is it okay if I invite you? You are stingy."
Pointing to the aunt in Shanghai not far away, he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go buy two cups of milk tea first, what flavor do you drink?"
"I didn't ask you to pay for it." Xu Cheng said, "Whatever you want, just buy it as you see it."
"Casual, have you always been so casual?" Rita complained, and the two walked outside the milk tea shop together.
After ordering two cups of taro pearl milk tea.
"By the way..." Although it was very impolite, Rita couldn't help her curiosity like a cat's paw: "Speaking of money, it has been rumored that your net worth has skyrocketed these days, has EDG asked you to talk about it? "
Xu Cheng didn't hide it, the main reason is that this matter can't be hidden for long in the circle: "We talked about it."
"Really? Then how much did they raise your salary?"
Rita blinked: "Uh...you don't have to answer, if it's inconvenient, just give a rough idea, I'm just curious."
"1500."
"what?"
"1500 million, an annual salary of 1500 million."
Rita was stunned, and looked at Xu Cheng: "Did you just tell me directly like this?"
"Otherwise?" Xu Cheng was surprised.
"Oh... no, I didn't expect... How much did you say?! 1500 million?! RMB?"
Rita was both surprised and a little touched in her heart.
Because although the annual salary of star players has always been in a semi-public state in the circle, after all, the market is there, and anyone can find out.
But Xu Cheng didn't even hesitate and told him directly, which still surprised her.
But soon she realized that she was taken aback by the number Xu Cheng said.
1500 million? ?
How long has it been since Xu Cheng made his debut, and it's only a matter of a few days before he became famous.
Four group games, 1500 million? !
An average appearance fee of 375 million per game? !
"Otherwise, can it still be Vietnamese Dong?" Xu Cheng was speechless: "Usually, you are quite smart, why are you acting like an iron fool?"
"No... just... this... a lot!"
Rita opened her mouth wide, still digesting the explosive news.
1500 million was played in four games. If this is spread to the outside world, it is estimated that it will cause a lot of pink eyes.
"Then... aren't you a multi-millionaire now?"
When the milk tea was ready, Rita handed Xu Cheng a cup and looked him up and down.
"Yes, so you should be more polite to me in the future. After all, I am also a person with an ID card." Xu Cheng took a sip of milk tea and commented: "It's okay, next time I have to drink Huaxiangyuan's milk tea ..."
"Tsk tsk tsk, put it on, put it on."
Rita shook her head and sighed: "This is really unreasonable. I worked so hard to explain a game, and it was less than 1000. You can earn more than 100 million a month. People are more popular than people."
Having said that, Rita didn't feel disappointed at all, but told Xu Cheng instead.
"You can't be so careless. Tell everyone the truth. If someone asks you about your annual salary in the future, don't answer directly. Be careful not to be missed!"
"I'll keep it a secret for you, too. Thank you soon."
"Thank you, Sister Feng."
Rita almost spit out the milk tea she just took a sip, her eyes widened: "What did you call me?"
"Sister Feng."
"...Master Cheng, you are so kind."
"Hehe, that's fine, sir. If you really want to be my junior, you can call me Dad Cheng."
"Son, come to mother's arms, mother loves son."
"Mom, can I have milk?"
"Go eat fart..."
The two walked towards the distance while talking.
From time to time, I also made a few jokes.
The setting sun stretched the backs of the two very long.
……
Rita brought Xu Cheng to a relatively high-end guild-style restaurant.
The two took a taxi all the way and arrived at the restaurant after half an hour.
As soon as she entered the door, Rita said very familiarly: "Is the food served in box 208?"
"Not yet, you said you were waiting for someone, are you going now?" the waiter asked, looking at Xu Cheng with a strange look.
If one is not enough, then two, then a third...fourth...
Xu Cheng looked uncomfortable.
When he went upstairs with Rita, he asked, "Why is anyone waiting? See, you know this place very well, have you already booked it?"
"hey-hey."
Rita smiled and said nothing.
The elevator door opened, and Xu Cheng was directly pulled to the door of the box.
Through the door, Xu Cheng could already hear the voices of many people talking.
"Dangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdangdang! Everyone! See who I brought here?!"
Rita yelled excitedly.
The noisy box was instantly quiet.
They all looked at Rita and Xu Cheng at this side.
then…
There was a scream in an instant.
"Ahhh!!"
"Murder?! Is it Murder?"
"Fuck, Lord Buddha!?"
"It's really here?! Buddha! I drop Buddha!"
"Hurry up, come in, how can you let Buddha stand here..."
A large group of commentators and hosts from the LPL competition area in the box, as well as a few commentators from other competition areas, all stood up and welcomed Xu Cheng in enthusiastically.
Only then did Xu Cheng realize that there were still many acquaintances in the box.
For example, Yu Shuang, Xiao Yu, Sister Tuozi, Xi Ran, and Ren Dong in the [Female Bodhisattvas] group chat are all there.
I haven't had any contact with him in private, but he brags about himself on the field, and the doll Miller is also in the crowd.
From the looks of it, these people should be planning to eat here...
Or rather waiting for him to come.
"Wow, Rita, you are too good, you said you could call Murder, and you really did!"
Xiran looked at Rita with admiration, and cast her admiration on her face.
Others also looked excited.
"Well, I didn't lie to you, did I? Isn't it Murder? In our group back then, she was my good sister... Well, here comes my good brother! If I make a call, will he not give face?"
Rita looked at the crowd very proudly, and patted Xu Cheng who was surrounded by black lines: "Cheng Cheng, say hello to everyone."
"Hello everyone."
I already knew that this woman would not find me for no reason...
Although he was speechless in his heart, Xu Cheng still gave Rita a lot of face in front of outsiders.
Greeted one by one with these people in the box.
"Sit down, sit down, it's a rare visitor, I didn't expect the Buddha to come today."
What words?Regulars!
Wawa is a little expert at adjusting the atmosphere, and said: "We thought Rita was just joking, but we didn't expect her to go out for a trip, and she really pulled you here!"
"I've heard that Rita and Buddha have a good relationship in private..."
"Ahem...um!"
Miller coughed twice to remind the doll who was about to speak nonsense.
"That is, it must be good, the two of them have a good relationship."
Who knew that Yu Shuang on the other side had spoken, and suddenly said in a strange way: "Murder doesn't give face to anyone, and he can't help Rita..."
"Um…"
"We don't know the taste of Buddha, Lord Buddha, what do you like to eat..."
The group of people at the dinner table, in addition to a few front-line commentators and hosts of the current LPL, there are also many small commentators and hosts who have no chance to be on the stage of the S game.
Like corgis, hallucinations, a sister B, etc...
Whether it's a first-line player or a small coffee shop, seeing Xu Cheng here now is really like a fan meeting.
In fact, this is the same as an alternative fan meeting.
On such a grand stage as S7, the general commentator can only watch the players play on the court at best.
Except for the top few people, there is basically no hope for private contact.
After all, the players don't know who you are, and they still have competitions and training matches to play.
And a star player like Xu Cheng, who exploded in Carry in S7 and played famous scenes in every game, was a top popular player, not to mention that everyone could get in touch with it.
Doll Miller has been raving about Xu Cheng recently, because they really really like this player.
Meeting in private and having dinner together at this moment, these two big names in the commentary class are not to mention how excited they are.
"Buddha, let's work hard for the next game!"
"LZ is not easy to play, but we will always support you!"
"Really, with Buddha's talent and performance, I think even if there is no chance this year, after strengthening next year, I will definitely be able to achieve results!"
"A toast to Buddha!"
Xu Cheng substituted cola for wine and had a drink with everyone.
He has been very low-key, constantly saying thank you to people.
"So I heard that the Buddha is easy to get along with in private, and he really has no airs." The baby couldn't help but said.
"That's right, I think Buddha is more handsome than the camera at close range, what do you think?" A small commentator said.
"...Brother, although you are telling the truth, why do I feel a little licking..."
"Que, it's too licking, but it's worse than me..."
"Hahaha……"
A very pleasant meal.
Being accompanied by so many people, although it was the first time we met, also dispelled the loneliness in Xu Cheng's heart.
In the middle of the meal, the owner of the restaurant came over and added some dishes, and asked Xu Cheng for his autograph.
It seems that he should have recognized Xu Cheng.
After the meal, when everyone was about to pay the bill, the boss quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no, I'm a fan of Murder, so let's treat this meal as my invitation to everyone."
"How can this work, there are so many of us, it's quite expensive."
"It's really not necessary."
At this time, many young waiters, including passers-by outside, couldn't help but probe their brains and surrounded them.
The boss looked at Xu Cheng and said with a smile: "I have been a fan of you for a long time, Lord Buddha. When you were not playing professionally, I watched your OB live broadcast. I went to watch your game live yesterday. Really, you played That's great!"
"Thank you..." Xu Cheng thanked.
"Come on for the top eight! I will always support you!"
"That's right, come on for the quarterfinals!"
"Support EDG!"
"Come on, EDG!!"
"Come on, EDG!!"
"Buddha, come on!"
"Buddha beef batch!!"
Many people followed suit, and finally they started shouting in unison.
Seeing this scene, Rita, Wawa and others felt uncomfortable and inexplicably proud.
They had also been here just now, and these people also recognized them.
A few people came over to ask for autographs.
But there are not so many... let alone such a big momentum.
In just a few minutes, it felt like the entire restaurant was blocked by people.
Commentators and hosts usually face a lot of people, but this is the first time for a few people to experience this kind of close siege and contact in reality.
This feeling... is the feeling of a real star!
Xu Cheng's popularity in Wuhan is...too high.
"Well, I'll take a photo with everyone."
When Xu Cheng saw more and more people gathered here, his heart beat a little and he shouted.
"is it okay?"
"real?!"
"I'm going to the front!"
The offer got a lot of responses right away.
Xu Cheng and these people came to take a group photo.
Then I took a photo with the shop owner alone, and deliberately put the name of the shop on it.
"This... is this really okay?" The boss was excited and embarrassed.
"Your endorsement fee is very expensive now, right? I'm afraid I can't afford it..."
"It's okay, it's free."
Xu Cheng said kindly: "Thank you for your support to EDG, LPL, and me all the time!"
"Okay...then let's go first."
After everything was done, it was almost dark, and Xu Cheng also planned to leave.
Starting tomorrow, we will enter the normal work and rest and start intense combat readiness training.
Everyone in the store was satisfied, and no one stopped Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng and the others walked out of the store.
They have been walking far away, and they can still hear many shouts of "Come on EDG" and "Come on Buddha top eight" from behind.
Although very messy, Xu Cheng's heart is very warm at the moment.
"A lot of people actually support EDG... There are also a lot of people who support you."
Xiao Yu, who was walking with Xu Cheng, stopped, and a taxi was already waiting beside him.
The two haven't been in touch for a long time, but now they are familiar with each other like old friends.
"You... Come on for the top eight, no matter you win or lose, I will always support you!"
"What you said, why are you like my fans?" Xu Cheng looked at Xiao Yu with a smile.
"Who said I'm not your fan?"
Xiaoyu originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he said: "LZ is a hopeless opponent, don't put too much pressure on him recently, you are still so young, it doesn't matter if you come back next year."
"Yes, at worst, come back next year."
Rita's voice suddenly sounded.
Wrapped in a thin windbreaker, she walked over and threw a pendant to Xu Cheng:
"Last time, there was a fortune-telling and selling Guanyin under the overpass. They said that one would get one free. I thought that the male wearing the Guanyin and the female wearing the Buddha, this is also a free thing. It is useless if I want it, so I will give it to you... I hope it will be available in the future. Shanghai, BJ... commenting on your game."
"Huh?" Xu Cheng was taken aback.
Xiaoyu next to her stared wide-eyed, looking at Rita with an expression of "you play me".
Xu Cheng didn't notice this, and opened the box to have a look.
Inside is a pair of crystal clear white jade Guanyin.
Jade is warm and moist, warm and cool to touch.
Even someone like Xu Cheng who doesn't understand jade can tell that it is a good piece of jade.
"Throw it away if you don't need it, it's all free stuff anyway."
Rita saw someone coming from behind, quickly waved her hand, turned around and went back.
"Then you... Come on."
Xiao Yu was not in the mood to stay any longer, feeling complicated and angry, and went back to find Rita to settle the score.
The evening wind was blowing, Xu Cheng looked at the backs of the two who had already started fighting.
He looked up again at the stars in the sky.
There are many stars, but the most dazzling ones are always only a few.
Today's weather is very good, it is an unforgettable day.
He is not alone at all.
"gone."
Shake your head.Xu Cheng got into the taxi.
Big deal come back next year...
Unfortunately, I don't want to come back next year.
This year will do.
Me, seize the day!
……
When Xu Cheng returned to the hotel, it was already late at night.
All the teammates are back.
Everyone had a smile on their face.
Presumably a short time to relax, everyone is doing well.
We didn't talk too much, everyone knew that the real hard battle was still to come, so we went back to the room to rest very early.
Before going to bed, when Xu Cheng checked Moments, he saw the latest update of Rita——
[Buddha said that Jade Guanyin can guarantee a prosperous career and a bright future.Let me tell you, these are all lies! 】
Xu Cheng smiled and gave Rita a thumbs up.
And leave a comment below: [What the Buddha says doesn't count now, what the Buddha says counts. 】
Turning off the phone, instead of watching Rita's bombardment, Xu Cheng fell asleep peacefully and easily.
……
The next day.
All EDG members have re-entered a state of intense training and preparation.
The coaching staff did not rest yesterday, and made a training plan for the offseason for EDG in the past few days.
Throughout the day, everyone in EDG spent in the training room.
On the third day, everyone packed up their things, and together with RNG and WE, they boarded the plane to Guangzhou early in the morning.
The boss, Ed Zhu, accompanied him.
After arriving in Guangzhou, the three teams separated.
Under the leadership of the boss Ed Zhu, everyone in EDG first had a meal in a very luxurious hotel before moving into the official hotel.
Settle in for the night.
Next, EDG began to formally conduct training programs in Guangzhou.
There are a total of six days in the offseason.
In the next few days, other teams from other regions that advanced to the quarter-finals also landed in Guangzhou one after another and settled in the official hotel.
Time passes day by day.
With the opening ceremony of the quarterfinals approaching, the e-sports atmosphere in Guangzhou, a bustling international city, is gradually getting stronger.
It is exactly the same as the original Wuhan.
Audiences from all over the world, local Chinese audiences, regardless of whether they bought tickets or not, began to gather in Guangzhou.
Compared with the "slow pace" in reality, the public opinion and popularity on the Internet during this period have begun to soar uncontrollably.
S7 initially showed signs of phenomenal events.
2017 Global Finals Quarterfinals, Quarterfinals.
This is the real highlight of the annual S competition.
There are countless famous scenes and reverse famous scenes that everyone is familiar with.
For example, "Horse Stepping on the Flying Arrow", "4396", "EDG0/4" and so on... These are the classic names of the century.
All from the stage of the quarterfinals.
At this stage, the competition system has also changed from BO1 in the group stage to a more intense and passionate BO5.
At the same time, because it is related to the promotion places for the semi-finals and even the finals.
The attention of the quarter-finals can be said to have completely killed the group stage.
Eight out of sixteen teams have been eliminated.
The remaining eight teams became the protagonists that all audiences around the world focused on.
10 month 17 number.
There are still two days until the opening of the quarter-finals.
On this day, the official announced the latest world player rankings, as well as the team ranking list.
In the list, EDG is officially ranked second to last on the list.
Just one place higher than FNC.
In the player list, EDG's five starting players are not ranked very high in their respective positions.
Only Xu Cheng stands out and is officially ranked No.5 in the world's single player rankings.
The top four are: Khan, Cuvee, Huni, 957.
This ranking can be said to be very high.
Because the ones in front of Xu Cheng are the world's top top laners who have been famous for a long time, have championship honors, and are recognized by the global audience.
only…
Judging from the actual situation and Xu Cheng's superb performance on the field not long ago, this ranking is unfair.
In particular, Huni ranked third among them, which caused a lot of controversy.
[Huni can be ranked in front of Buddha?Who was hammered by Buddha in the group stage? ? ? 】
[The official old Koreans are mixed, and the three Korean top laners are all in front of Buddha, which is outrageous. 】
[One thing to say, South Korea's top laner is indeed the only one in the world, Khan is also acceptable in the front, Cuvee hasn't played against each other yet, but what the hell is Huni? 】
[The ones in front are all drainage brats?Don't know the difference between BO1 and BO5?But I also think there is a problem with Huni's ranking, not Murder's problem. I think the leg brother should be ranked ahead of Huni. 】
[Three Korean top laners, and one leg brother, except for Huni, this list is still convincing...]
[Isn't Buddha this year's top laner? !Officially, this is too outrageous! 】
[Boldly speaking, is it true that the leg brother is the number one order in China?Doesn't Buddha's performance in the group stage kill him instantly?He is the number one in LPL! 】
[What honors have you won?I wonder if Brother Leg didn't perform well enough in the group stage this year? WE5/1 qualifying is not better than EDG4/3? 】
[Cold knowledge, Buddha's four-game winning streak, EDG's record is 4/3, but Buddha's record is 4/0. 】
[Laughing, is this the beginning of a cut with the team? 】
The list has caused a lot of controversy.
Because Xu Cheng defeated Huni in the group stage, and some Xu Cheng fans think that the official ranking of Xu Cheng in the top five in the world is a bit low.
But some people think that BO1 and BO5 are completely different. Xu Cheng has only played four group matches, and he was directly promoted to the top five in the world in four games. What is there to be dissatisfied with?
This is where the scolding war comes from.
The quarter-finals are still two days away from the start. Not only the players and teams are nervously preparing for the battle, but also the audience outside the field, and even the commentators and officials are full of gunpowder.
Smoke filled the air.
And at this critical moment, a person who was unexpected by everyone ended up.
He is someone who has nothing to do with this controversy, but has a little connection——
EDG's opponent in the quarter-finals of this year's S tournament is also recognized as the world's number one top laner. Xu Cheng's biggest "opponent" this year——
Khan.
Brother man.
After the list was released, Riot officials specially interviewed the man who ranked first.
Mentioned the current world player ranking list.
Brother Hanzi first nodded to express his approval of the list, and then said: "But I think that the top laner in Korea will always be the strongest in the world."
The media also asked Brother Hanzi how he viewed the quarter-final match against EDG.
Brother Hanzi was as arrogant as ever: "The LPL team will never be able to win the global finals. EDG bears the brunt. We are not worried about the game against EDG, because EDG's historical results in international competitions show that they have always been others. stepping stone."
"The Chinese division will never win the championship!"
This sentence can be said to be full of firepower, and instantly angered everyone in the LPL competition area, including the officials!
After the interview, LZ's official media issued an official apology that night, and Brother Hanzi shaved his head for this to express his apology for his slip of the tongue.
But this is still difficult to calm the anger of everyone in the LPL division.
Can never win the championship!
How contemptuous and disrespectful are these words that can be said?
Although the LPL division has not won the S championship for so many years.
Can't even touch a corner... Now everyone's biggest expectation is to break through to the top eight.
But these words are too arrogant, so arrogant that the officials can't stand it.
However, there are also foreign audiences and commentators who like Khan's troublesome personality.
A well-known North American commentator even supported Khan in public: "The reason why Khan is called the world's number one top laner is not only because of his fierce and perverted personal strength, but more importantly, perhaps because of his arrogance."
"Only people with this kind of personality are qualified to be called the number one in the world!"
"A player, a top laner, pays the most attention to manipulation and fighting. A hot temper often makes this player's style more aggressive and bloody."
"Some time ago I heard that someone called Murder in the LPL division the number one top laner in the world... Forgive me for laughing. It is undeniable that Murder's operation is very strong, as powerful as a god, but his character determines that he will never Can't be number one in the world."
"LZ is the strongest team this year. They sanctioned the overlord SKT in previous years. This is a phantom team that has never appeared in history, a super dynasty!"
"In the quarter-finals, LZ will play against EDG, it's not too much to open ten times!"
LZ plays EDG, ten zero open!
As soon as these words were spoken, it caused a great shock in the world.
But what is unexpected is that many people think that there is nothing wrong with this probability.
Almost everyone in Europe, America and South Korea thinks this way.
Even Guan Zeyuan, a well-known commentator in the LPL division, agrees with it.
Of course, the colonel's approval was more tactful.
The statement he gave is also very rational - Buddha is very strong, and there is nothing wrong with his personal ability being the best in the world, but LOL is a five-player game. Do his other four teammates have LZ tops?
This is a super dynasty that can beat SKT 5/3 in BO1.
Even so, it aroused the anger of countless LPL viewers.
Everyone is not optimistic about EDG playing LZ, and some people even think that there is no hope of winning at all.
But that's just everyone's rational opinion.
In addition to rationality, everyone can also be emotional!
The reason why people are human is because they have feelings, and sometimes they are even more emotional!
No matter how bad EDG is, he is still his own child.
You've worked so hard to get out of the theory, but when it comes to you, it's only [-] points for Nima?
It’s fine if the commentators and players from outside the competition area say so, but you, a commentator from the LPL competition area, think so?
Why don't you go to the LCK as a commentator?
Han Zashi hammered!
All of a sudden, the colonel's Weibo was directly blasted, and the speed of light was sprayed on the hot search list.
Happy to mention the title of "Park Zeyuan"!
And the matter is far from over. Many radical viewers even went to the outer competition area, tweeted and argued with fans in Europe, America and South Korea.
Things got so big that even everyone in EDG in training knew about it.
But these news are not important to them.
Players only need to pay attention to the next game.
Not everyone likes to work and have sex like Brother Hanzi.
It's just that during the training period, it is inevitable to tacitly increase the training intensity with each other.
Ten open...
People are angry.
[-] to [-] odds are too insulting.
This means that if EDG and LZ play a hundred games, they will lose a hundred games!
The most scientific probability is never so outrageous.
The incident continued to ferment and spread more and more widely.
Spectators, commentators, and even officials from all competitions around the world left the field one after another to cheer for their respective teams.
For a while, the popularity soared, the traffic soared, and the attention was full.
It’s not lively.
But this is actually just an episode of the S7 offseason.
A small episode has aroused heated discussions around the world, causing such a terrifying heat.
Now, even an idiot knows that this year's S7 has exploded!
People who don't watch the game are starting to understand and pay attention to this event.
Guangzhou in reality.
It is also gradually boiling during the nearly one week of fermentation!
The main road leading to the Guangzhou Sports Center is crowded with people every day, and the nearby hotels, Internet cafes and other entertainment venues are even more crowded.
Some hotel prices even rose to sky-high prices.
It is more expensive than the price during the National Day period.
What's even more outrageous is that even so, the rooms in the surrounding hotels will fill up quickly.
It is difficult to live nearby for a few days.
All kinds of shops in the surrounding area and the small booths leased outside the square have all become support objects related to S7.
There are countless scalpers wandering around every day, and every time they appear, they will be looted by countless audiences.
Earn a lot of money.
The popularity of S7, as if it had grown countless tentacles, began to spread silently across the country and every corner of the world.
The reality and the Internet will be gradually affected, and we will finally complete this peak feast of carnival at the end of 17 together.
In such an explosive atmosphere, everyone is waiting.
Waiting for the opening of the quarterfinals and the day when EDG takes the stage.
10 month 18 number.
There is still the last day before the opening of the quarter-finals of the 2017 Global Finals.
That night, someone suddenly discovered the landmark building in Guangzhou.
Known as the tallest tower in China, the Canton Tower, a national 4A-level scenic spot, suddenly appeared a huge team logo of EDG!
In the dark night sky, the Canton Tower standing in the center of Guangzhou is shining with neon lights, and the tower body surrounded by colorful colors is like the most beautiful mountain in the night.
On the top of the tower, the black team logo of EDG flickered.
Like a master standing above the stars.
Canton Tower cheers!
This may be the most famous support in league history.
Canton Tower's 1-minute support is [-] soft sister coins
And today's Canton Tower, EDG's team completely dominated the whole night!
No one knows how much the aid cost.
Some of them calculated.
In addition to the EDG team logo that first appeared, the personal makeup photos of EDG players appeared on the top of the Guangzhou Tower in turn.
Xu Cheng and the factory manager appeared the most, almost occupying the prime time of the whole night in Guangzhou!
[Fuck! ! EDG! ! 】
[Guangzhou Tower welcomes support!Isn't this too ostentatious? ! 】
[Mom, I'm so stupid, 1 a minute, how much will Ed Zhu spend today? 】
【...I can only say that you are rich and self-willed. 】
【How are you sure Ed Zhu did it? 】
[? ?new driver?Don't know Ed Zhu's identity? 】
[EDG is playing in Guangzhou, which means that they have completely returned to their natal home. 】
[Wuhan is my husband’s family, Guangzhou is my mother’s family! 】
【Foye and the factory manager are really famous this time, the Guangzhou Tower dominates the screen overnight, and everyone in Guangzhou can see them...】
[It's really outrageous, but this time I stand on EDG! EDG rushes to Grandpa!Destroy LZ's dog head! 】
[The blood boils watching, Canton Tower's support is the best response to Ten Zero Open! 】
The support of Canton Tower has completely pushed the popularity of EDG and this year's S7 to an unprecedented peak in history!
On the night before the opening of the quarterfinals, the Guangzhou home court gave EDG and all teams in the LPL division the best gift!
That night, everyone in EDG accidentally looked up during training, and they could always see themselves... or their teammates on the top of the tower standing at the highest point.
No one spoke. It was the last night and they needed to train harder.
The rest of EDG didn't bother them either.
Ed Zhu never showed up, but his support was felt by everyone.
"I hope... there will be a good result tomorrow."
Abu looked up at the sky, among the stars in the sky, is there a name...
What about EDG?
He didn't know, but the answer would be revealed soon.
The next day.
10 month 19 number.
Everyone in EDG got up and had a simple meal, then took the official bus and arrived at the Guangzhou Stadium.
During the period, because there were too many people outside, the main road was blocked, and the bus stopped for half an hour before moving on.
After getting off the car, everyone didn't have time to experience the unprecedented crazy scene.
Under the leadership of the staff, they walked into the competition venue.
at the same time.
The live broadcast channels of the various competition areas around the world were also connected in the morning, and the live broadcast of the quarter-finals of the 2017 Global Finals was carried out.
As soon as the live broadcast was connected, the popularity in the live broadcast room soared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In less than 5 minutes, the popularity of the Dousha live broadcast platform directly reached an unprecedented [-] million+.
Breaking through the record of the last day of the group stage, fully doubled!
And this is just the beginning.
With the passage of time, the servers of some small live broadcast platforms even appeared to be paralyzed and stuck.
In major media forums on the Internet, the topic of #EDGVSLZ# began to soar, and the number of discussions exceeded [-] million.
It fully demonstrates the style of today's game——
Fire before starting!
When the time came to exactly three o'clock in the afternoon.
The staff on the major stages ahead are all ready.
Popularity is at its peak.
Spectators who had been crowded outside the square for a long time began to enter.
……
"Wow, there are more people today, it feels more lively than when I was in Wuhan."
In the Guangzhou Gymnasium, near the front row, a group of young men and women gathered.
These spectators are the same as other spectators, the only difference is that they all hold cheering objects with "Murder" in their hands.
These people are all fans who came to the scene to cheer for Xu Cheng.
The leader of the organization was Xu Cheng, that fan-headed lady.
Her name is Yu Wannian, and although she looks lolita, she is a sophomore.
"Guangzhou must be more lively than Wuhan, after all, it is the quarterfinals."
Yu Wannian looked up and looked around, and said a little excitedly: "There are so many people who came to cheer for the Buddha today!"
"That's right, Lord Buddha is very popular recently, and it's not just us fans. Many people came to the scene to support him today." The fans next to him nodded in relief.
Because they are all Xu Cheng's first batch of old fans, they can be regarded as witnessing Xu Cheng's growth with their own eyes.
From unknown to famous all over the world.
At this moment, I am somewhat honored.
"However, Buddha played Khan today... Before the match, many people said that Buddha is not Khan's opponent, which made me very nervous."
"I don't like that Khan. He may be really strong, but his words are too arrogant, and he even mocked Buddha."
"That can't be helped, the number one in the world, one day Buddha will become the number one in the world, I think it's understandable to be so crazy..."
Everyone chatted and chatted, only Yu Wannian kept looking at the time and the exits for the players to enter.
"Sister Wan, what are you looking at?" Someone next to him asked curiously.
"I'm waiting for the Buddha to enter the arena, why haven't he entered the arena... I haven't seen him for several days."
"And..." Yu Wannian said with some anticipation: "I heard that the Buddha is officially invited to make a promotional film this time. This is the first time that the Buddha has appeared on the big screen. I really look forward to what the Buddha will look like in the camera..."
Appeared for the first time.
During the group stage, Xu Cheng showed his face. For a few seconds, these fans were really looking forward to the promotional video of this year's quarter-finals.
hum.
While talking, the bright venue suddenly dimmed.
Immediately afterwards, the spotlight in the center of the stage flickered.
The Guangzhou Gymnasium was quiet for a second, and then there was a terrifying scream——
"It's about to start!"
Yu Wannian's face tightened, and she immediately looked at the big screen.
The dimly lit big screen turned on at some point.
A BMG that everyone is familiar with and has goosebumps all over the body when they hear the prelude sounds.
S7 theme song.
The legend never dies.
On the banks of the great river, the sun rises and the tide ebbs and flows.
An exquisite and elegant summoner's trophy appeared beside the river.
Standing quietly.
As if waiting for the appearance of the person who will take its laurels.
In front of the pavilions, BDD in LZ walked slowly among the flowers and bushes, looked up at the sky, and the voice-over sounded:
"I don't think people will remember you just because you reached the quarterfinals."
"In order to be remembered, you have to continue to perform well on a higher stage."
Looking at the camera, there was a passionate voice in English commentary:
"BDD is here!! Unstoppable! LZ, this is the strongest team this year! No one, they won the last game of the group stage, winning six consecutive victories! NO! LZ, they are going to smash their way to the championship All the teams!!"
The Yangtze River Bridge, the montage perspective switch, opposite the Guangzhou Tower, the head of Samsung Ahn turned his back to the camera, looking alone at the top of the highest standing Guangzhou Tower.
It was as if he saw the glory of the ten sons of Samsung in the past.
"To be in the quarter-finals is a feat in itself, but we were in the final last year, so we have to be in the grand final this time too!"
The camera rotates, Guangzhou under the night, high-rise buildings, and neon lights flashing.
"Congratulations to WE!! 5/1 first qualifying in the group stage!"
The doll screamed.
The brother-in-law of WEADC leaned on the overpass alone, watching the people coming and going under the car, and the traffic was surging.
"Our opponent is a Korean team, the opponent is very strong, but we will do our best to prove that we are the strongest..."
BGM gradually entered the first climax.
Murder, the top laner of the EDG team, appeared in front of the camera.
Leaning against the railing under the Canton Tower, the dark pupils reflect the bustling night scene of Guangzhou.
The stars twinkle, and there is always the brightest one rising.
A clear and pleasant voice sounded:
"The global finals are the best stage to prove the player's own strength. I just want people to see that I can compete with these world-class players, I can beat them, and let everyone see how I play..."
"One day, I will stand on the highest stage."
The stars are shining, I stand among the stars!
At the bottom of the steps, the FNC team's sister-in-law walked towards the top step by step.
"People's evaluation of me is polarized, although I have appeared in the World Championship many times, but every time I have to prove myself again and again..."
A close-up of his side face, his eyes are full of loneliness and unwillingness.
In the center of the Guangzhou Gymnasium, there are colorful lights, and there are many commercial center buildings.
The support players of the MSF team looked up at the towering tall buildings.
It's like watching the various opponents they faced in this year's global finals.
He said vigorously: "It is a success for us to reach the quarterfinals, but I don't want to stop here. If we beat SKT, we can become famous all over the world!"
"Everyone will remember us!"
BGM came to the last climax.
Huni, dressed in a white team uniform, walked in front of the camera, indifferent and proud.
Just like SKT's attitude of being proud of the world.
Just one simple sentence.
"The name SKT itself is equivalent to a laurels."
The sound gradually decreased and gradually disappeared.
The camera came to the end.
In the dark, Shan Xiaohu in RNG walked up the steps wearing a hoodie.
"I think it's just a process from the group stage to the quarter-finals."
Walk to the top of the steps, stop and turn around.
"No matter what sport it is, what everyone remembers...is always the champion!"
Bang! !
After the words fell, the classic fist logo appeared on the big screen.
With a punch, the screen shattered.
All the star players from all over the world gathered together, and the event was unprecedented!
Accompanied by the crazy screams and cheers of tens of thousands of people in the Guangzhou Stadium.
The quarter-finals of the 2017 Global Finals have officially begun!
The host Ren Dong appeared, and the two teams that played against each other today, EDG and LZ, played separately.
After the appearance, the commentary took over the camera.
When the time came to four o'clock in the afternoon, the camera cut.
The commentators most familiar to everyone appeared in front of the camera with smiles on their faces.
"Welcome to the quarter-finals of the 2017 Global Finals, this is Guangzhou, China! Hello everyone, I am Doll!"
"I'm Miller!"
"Hi everyone, I'm Duoduo...!"
Whoa!
Seeing these three people off the field, they immediately cheered like crazy.
"Wow... I just found out at the scene today that the audience in Guangzhou is no worse than the audience in Wuhan." Waowa sighed.
"It's all the same enthusiasm!" Miller nodded.
"Then... I believe everyone has been waiting impatiently for a long time, EDG vs. LZ!"
"This is also the opening match of this year's quarter-finals. Today, two of the world's top giants will be here to present a wonderful peak duel for audiences all over the world!"
"Yes... Then speaking of EDG and LZ, I believe that many of the audience who came to the scene today came to support EDG..."
Wawa smiled and said, "After all, it is our No. [-] seeded team in the LPL division."
"But what I want to say here is that the LZ team is definitely the strongest opponent EDG has encountered so far!"
"I think today's game... is really the most difficult battle since EDGS7, even more difficult than the 0/3 start of the group stage!"
Several people were talking, when the Guangzhou Gymnasium suddenly felt like an earthquake, causing a terrifying sound.
The starting members of EDG and LZ teams are here!
The shots were given to the top laners on both sides.
Miller couldn't help taking a deep breath: "LZ...EDG, the reason why EDG's game is difficult today has a lot to do with the top laner!"
"That's right, everyone knows about LZ's top laner, Khan...I don't need to say more about this guy's strength, everyone who has watched the LCK finals this year knows it."
"One-handed signature Jess, hammered SKT's scalp is numb, he is the well-deserved No. [-] Jess in the world!"
Wa Wa said: "Yes...he is officially designated as the world's number one top laner, and his personal strength is indeed the world's number one."
"In the six group matches this year, he beat his opponents in every one of them. His personal ability is outrageous!"
"As the outside audience said, Khan might be the only top laner who can stop Murder."
"We are all familiar with EDG...Murder is currently the most stable and biggest carry point in EDG. If you were on another team, I don't think EDG's top laner would lose."
"But facing Khan, I can only say that Buddha is under a lot of pressure. If he loses his voice, it will be the most fatal for EDG now!"
Miller rationally analyzed: "Someone can contain your strongest carry point, but you can't contain LZ's carry point! In this way, this game will be extremely uncomfortable and difficult for EDG. !"
"Talk about Buddha's most famous hero...in fact, there is also Jess...but I probably won't take it today."
Wawa looked at Xu Cheng in the camera, even though she really wanted to say something to him.
But it was outside at ten o'clock, which showed that the public opinion situation was tense.
I can only say: "I just hope that EDG can give more strength in other positions today. If other positions can stand up when the top laner is really misfired, our chances of winning will be even greater!"
"That's right, and we have to target Khan in BP. This person's personal ability is too scary, especially if we want to ban Jess, we must not let this person get Jess."
The baby repeatedly emphasized: "Khan's Jess is completely ahead of the single level in the world, and he cannot be released!"
"After all, Jess is number one in the world...um..."
Announcement from the director ahead.
The baby cheered up: "Then the players ahead are ready, let's not talk much, let's enter today's first match of BO5 together!"
After the words fell, the director switched cameras.
Come to the BP interface.
In this game, EDG is on the blue side and LZ is on the red side.
As soon as it came up, EDG targeted and banned several signature heroes of LZ.
Syndra, Lulu, and the blind man.
LZ is also targeting EDGban players here, but they don't care too much about the top laner position.
Other teams need to pay attention to the top laner when playing EDG, but for LZ, the last thing they need to worry about is the top laner position.
Because Khan is the biggest carry point of their team!
Squeeze out Scout's enchantress, the factory manager's pig girl, and the last spear of revenge.
"No ban on Jess... EDG didn't ban Jess, and LZ didn't ban any of Murder's signature heroes..."
"I feel that both sides... are very confident."
Miller said worriedly: "But I still think that Jess should be banned. Unless we grab it ourselves, the other side will definitely take it..."
"Is it possible to snatch it? There are still many versions of powerful heroes out there, and you don't take the prince's little gun?"
During the discussion among the crowd, EDG's first choice also came out.
Reasonable, unexpected.
Version strong AD, small cannon.
As soon as they confirmed it, Liz immediately locked Jess and the prince in seconds!
Whoa!
In an instant, there was a burst of cheers from the audience, and the wailing voices of countless LPL audiences.
"Wow... This, locked directly?! Jess!"
"Sure enough, Jess was locked in seconds...LZ, they are waiting for this hero!"
Miller's eyelids twitched.
Whether LCK's Jess is strong or not may be a question mark now after Murder turned out.
But Khan's Jess... is definitely the only one in the world.
His Jess can really hit all LPL singles and burst their skulls!
At this time, the director's camera also specially showed the man who locked Jess in seconds.
Brother Hanzi had a trademark mocking smile on his face, his big bald head that had just been shaved was shiny, and he made a gesture of a pistol towards the camera.
Whoa!
The uproar grew louder.
"Khan, it's time to wake up! This guy just started gesticulating!"
The baby screamed, and in his heart he really wanted to fuck the other party, but there was nothing he could do.
"...Actually, we were able to snatch it just now. Buddha's Jess is also a signature, and he used it in the group stage before, and his performance was very exaggerated!" Wang Duoduo felt a little regretful.
"But with Jess, LZ can get more versions of heroes, which is not worth it... Alas, let's see what top laner EDG will choose for this game."
Miller frowned and said, "As soon as this Jess is locked, I feel that the Buddha may have a hard time in this match."
"Yes... then let's take a look at EDG's next selection."
The offseason is very long, and both sides have made a lot of preparations before the game.
And to be honest, LZ really doesn't need to hesitate too much when playing EDG.
Therefore, the BP on both sides proceeded very quickly.
In the second round of ban selection, EDG decided to play the wild wine barrel in their fourth hand.
When it came to the fifth hand, that is, the choice of the upper unit, it immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the world.
The EDG people in the camera also seemed to be a little hesitant, discussing something all the time.
"Which one should I take? In the second round, LZ defeated Jian Ji, how about Qinggang Ying?" Waowa suggested nervously.
"Qinggang Ying is not good at beating Jess, if you use Qingsteel Shadow to beat Khan's Jess, then you will be hammered on your own initiative." Miller shook his head, thought for a while and said: "Is there any hero who doesn't suffer too much online? Woolen cloth…"
"The selection time is almost over... Is EDG still not sure? Uh!"
As soon as the words fell, EDG on the field finally negotiated properly, and revealed the last hero in the unit——
"Only I can lead us to victory!"
Red armor, bloody, bloody axe.
This is……
Hand of Noxus - Darius? !
The hands of elementary school students? !
EDG didn't hesitate, and locked it in seconds!
"Nuoshou?! Locked! Confirmed! EDG, the last top laner, chose Nuoshou?!"
"No way... my God...!"
In an instant, the commentators and the audience in each competition area of the audience opened their mouths wide and were stunned.
Promise...
This Rank hero does not match the professional league at all.
Actually appeared in the first opener of the quarterfinals?
Or to beat Jace?
Nuo hit Jess...
Still playing Khan's Jace.
Isn't this looking for death?
"Hehe, the little Buddha on the other side is so generous, how dare you hit me, Jess, with your hands?"
In the internal voice of LZ.
Seeing this, Brother Hanzi immediately lived in Bengbu.
Unlike other LCK players, he is familiar with the abstract culture of the LPL division.
Therefore, one mouthful of Little Buddha can be called fluently.
"Then it seems that he doesn't know your Donghe's strength!"
"I suggest giving him a little LZ shock!"
The teammates ridiculed one after another, and the state was very relaxed.
"Hehe, if I hit Nuo with Jess, I can smash his dripper with my feet!" Brother Hanzi directly slapped his face.
"... I really don't understand what you said about Que Shi. What does it mean that the player on the other side was selected by Nuo? Do you think we are those weak teams?"
"Okay, okay, the selection is over, the kid on the other side of Donghe Education has been bragging about him in the country recently, he's too crazy, it's really annoying..."
……
the other side.
EDG internal voice.
"Brother, you are so brave!" Ming Kai directly gave a thumbs up.
Although it was discussed before the game, it may not change his face. In this kind of game, Jess, who played Khan as a player,...
It can only be said that Buddha's father is Buddha's father.
Super brave!
"It's not that scary, number one in the world, right? I specialize in number one in the world."
In this atmosphere, Xu Cheng, who has always been low-key, couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Rarely speak wild words.
"Okay, sure..."
Talking.
After EDG locked the promise, LZ also directly determined its mid laner hero, Rock Sparrow.
So far, the lineups of both sides have been completely settled.
The game screen starts loading.
The most exaggerated and terrifying cheers and screams since the start of this S game were also heard from the field——
"That's how it is... I remember that Buddha used the Nuo hand in this year's Intercontinental Competition... But now that it has been so long, the situation of the version has long been different..."
"Anyway, EDG should have its own ideas. Let us look forward to Buddha's performance together. Then... the quarter-finals of the 2017 World Finals, which has attracted billions of people, has begun..."
"Who will come out on top, let us enter together——Summoner's Canyon!"
The words fall.
2017 Global Finals Finals BO5 [-]st match officially begins!
Twenty-eight thousand words burst!Tired and vomited o(╥﹏╥)o ask for a guaranteed monthly pass!
