Chapter 125 Chen Sheng, standing in the LPL interview booth, finally met with RNG
“Congratulations to SKT for winning this game. It is also their good start in this MSI.”
>"Congratulations to SKT!"
"A hearty... massacre."
Crash.
Waves of applause surged from the Oriental Sports Center.
Miller, who personally shouted these words, felt complicated and heavier than ever before.
Yes, heavy.
Looking at SKT in this game, how will RNG respond next?
Game room.
Everyone in SKT took off their soundproof headphones, shouted "Nice" to each other, stood up, picked up their red and white jackets, and walked out of the game room.
Go to the G2 competition room opposite and shake hands one by one.
When shaking hands with the opponent's top laner Kikis, who claimed to defeat him before the game, Chen Yiqiu could clearly feel the opponent's frustration and autism, and his palms trembled slightly.
“Come on.”
He didn’t say much, just patted each other on the shoulder. Everyone in SKT walked out of the competition room, came to the center of the stage, and faced the audience as expressionless as ever. audience bowed.
Returning to the background amid terrifying sounds and applause.
“Nice.”
“Nice, Nice, good game.”
“Guys, a good start is a good sign.”
Kkoma and the SKT coaching staff first praised the performance of everyone in SKT in their MSI debut.
Then Kkoma showed his serious face: "But remember, we cannot regard our opponent's mistakes as our supposed strength."
Everyone nodded, Pei Junzhi's eyes were in a trance.
Chen Yiqiu understood what Kkoma meant.
In this game, anyone with a discerning eye can see at a glance that there is a clear strength gap between the SKT and G2 teams.
Staffing, communication within the team, and even overall game ideas.
In addition, G2 started to work hard from BP, and even sent two big waves in the beginning.
Any other team would not play like this.
Chen Yiqiu, who has experience in another world, knows better that before the start of this MSI, the voice of G2 in the European Division once surpassed that of CLG in North America.
It is known as the third and fourth strongest team in this MSI.
But the final facts proved that in this MSI, G2's strength and condition were extremely stretched, and in the end they only finished second to last.
Like SUP in the wild card division, it is an experience baby at this year's MSI and can be abused by anyone.
The next ones they have to face are all strong teams...
For example.
——RNG.
“Tomorrow, we will face off against RNG in the LPL home division.”
Kkoma glanced at Chen Yiqiu and said to everyone in a serious tone: "I don't care how well you performed today, forget everything about today."
"Tomorrow's victory is only allowed to win, not to lose, treat it as Let’s play in the finals, understand?”
Hearing this, Chen Yiqiu was startled.
“Understood!”
“Coach, don’t worry, you don’t need to say it, you will see my performance tomorrow. If I don’t beat the shit out of RNG’s bottom lane, I won’t be worthy of being a Qiu. Brother...uh..."
Pei Junzhi's voice gradually became quieter mid-sentence, and he glanced at Chen Yiqiu secretly.
Chen Yiqiu glanced at him sideways, but said nothing.
"Don't worry, coach, not just tomorrow, this year's MSI, and the following S games..."
Lee Sang-hyeok paused and said: "We will all do our best and use our strength. ”
“You...”
Chen Yiqiu thought for a while and prepared to speak.
"Okay, it's none of your business. What does this matter have to do with you? Shouldn't we win the game?"
Pei Junzhi pushed Chen Yiqiu: "Sit down, sit down , MVP is coming out."
"Just. Yes, we must win the game, it has nothing to do with you.”
Li Zaiwan muttered, picking up the apples on the table and showing off: “Oh, by the way, remember to invite us next time. Haidilao, I want to eat watermelon”
"...I'll buy you a box."
Chen Yiqiu rolled his eyes.
I was inexplicably moved in my heart.
Although the management and training within the SKT team have always been very strict... even to the point of being harsh.
It’s so harsh that even a training machine like Pei Junzhi can’t stand it.
However, in private, Kkoma treats their group of players, especially the members of the S6 class, with the same care as everyone.
And these teammates of his are also the best teammates in the world.
With these in mind, the MVP of this game is given.
In the end, among the candidates Reaper and Bang, the official MVP was given to Reaper.
Although Bang played almost perfectly in this game, Olaf's visual effects and gold content are also not low.
"Yiqiu, LPL interview booth, come quickly."
Chen Yiqiu's plan to transform SKT has achieved great results, and the team leader at the door was concise and to the point.
For Chen Yiqiu, this is very meaningful news.
LPL interview booth...
This is his first time as a Chinese to sit in the LPL interview booth.
After everyone cleared up, other SKT players also received interviews from major competition regions such as LCK, North America, Europe, and Wanwan.
Wearing team uniforms, we walked out of the lounge chatting and laughing together, preparing to go to their respective interview seats.
Bang.
Opposite the end of the corridor, the door of a lounge opened.
RNG people came out stretching.
"They also said that SKT is really strong."
"G2 is too weak. I finally understand that G2 this year is just an experience baby."
"You can't say that, Chen Yiqiu You're doing okay."
"Very good. Prepare well for tomorrow."
"Uh..."
After the words stopped, everyone turned around and met the eyes of everyone from SKT.
Chen Yiqiu made eye contact with Su Xiaofei and Xiaohu.
Smiled and nodded as a greeting.
The faces of Xiaohu and the others were a little unnatural, as if they were discussing someone behind their back and were suddenly caught. At the same time, looking at the SKT people in red across from them, they felt inexplicable pressure.
The feeling of oppression coming over my face.
It's SKT after all...
Nodding to Chen Yiqiu with a stiff expression, everyone in RNG turned around and walked out of the backstage without saying a word.
"...Go on, the interview is waiting for you."
Li Sang Hyuk pushed Chen Yiqiu and said in Chinese with a colonel's accent: "Chen Yiqiu, come on."
"I'm leaving."
Chen Yiqiu waved his hand and walked to the LPL interview booth with the team leader.
……
LPL interview seat.
Yu Shuang, the new host who has just emerged this year, is taking a deep breath at the moment.
Beside her, the executive in charge of the official host was chattering and urging: "Be sure to be friendly and let him feel the enthusiasm of our LPL."
"You have to be polite, understand?"
"Supervisor, I understand, I have written it all down."
Yu Shuang nervously took out a small notebook.
"Well, that's good. I believe in your business ability. Come on."
The supervisor nodded with satisfaction, looked at the time, and retreated behind the scenes.
But he didn't leave, and was prepared to personally 'supervise' the process of LPL's first interview with Reaper.
He must do his best for the tasks assigned by his superiors.
A moment later, Chen Yiqiu, wearing SKT team uniform, walked up to the interview booth and nodded briefly with Yu Shuang.
"Reaper, you...hello..."
Yu Shuang looked at the young man with good looks and temperament in front of him, feeling inexplicably unattainable, and quickly said hello .
There was curiosity and exploration in his eyes, and a little bit of confusion.
Hmm...Privately, she prefers the RNG team.
“Hello.”
Chen Yiqiu said politely.
"Then... let's discuss the questions and see if there is anything you don't want to answer..."
Yu Shuang took out a small notebook and immediately started communicating with Chen Yiqiu.
In the process of this communication, listening to Chen Yiqiu’s familiar Mandarin, the sense of ‘unattainable’ and distance that Chen Yiqiu brought to her gradually disappeared.
To be honest... As things have developed now, after playing for half a year, Chen Yiqiu seems to have been tied to the legendary SKT dynasty.
In the hearts of countless LPL viewers, 'Chen Sheng' seems to only exist in their daily mouths, but they cannot see his true appearance. There is also a sense of distance and compulsion that 'he is a member of SKT's classic five-man group' grid. I feel that if the ID of Reaper is stamped in front of it, it seems that it should be SKT.
As the host of LPL, Yu Shuang is in this circle and often hears about the grievances between Reaper and LPL.
But it wasn't until she really came into contact with him that she discovered that the other person was indeed Chinese...well, a very strong Chinese.
The way she talks is completely different from most of the LPL players she interviews, more logical and charming.
——For example.
“You won MSI in your debut and got a good start in your first game back home. How do you feel?”
“Because I have been training hard for MSI, so now I have a kind of reward. Feeling, I think there can be more similar sense of gain, and we will continue to work hard to achieve this sense of gain.”
"We can see that in the early stages of the game, including in team battles, your Olaf made several wonderful and eye-catching operations. What were your thoughts at the time? By the way, would you be anxious if the situation fell into a disadvantage? "
"In the game League of Legends, you only need to make a few excellent operations to erase all anxiety."
Chen Yiqiu answered.
The audience burst into applause.
Yu Shuang was silent for a moment and asked: "Do you know that you are very popular in... China? There are many fans and viewers who support you. In this regard, what do you want to say to those who support you? What to say?”
Chen Yiqiu thought for a while, looked at the dense Chinese audience in the audience, and said softly: "Actually... I have always longed for the stage, and I have also imagined myself playing games in a crowded stadium, with thousands of spectators in front of me, and tens of thousands of people. Millions of people watch online Look.”
“Perhaps I have realized my original fantasy... I will repay those who support me with the greatest kindness and humility, and I will give back to everyone with more and more exciting games. ”
——Wow! "Don't want to compete, we want you!"
I don't know which excited audience in the front row shouted this sentence, and it happened to be picked up by the radio equipment.
Yu Shuang's face turned pale and she turned to look at Chen Yiqiu.
Chen Yiqiu replied with a smile and emotional intelligence: "I don't dare to go back with you, I'm afraid your boyfriend will beat me."
"Hahaha..."
The audience burst into laughter.
Yu Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Chen Yiqiu in surprise, and said with a smile: "The last question, in the next game, you will face... the home team of LPL, RNG."
"RNG is the champion of this year's LPL Spring Split. They are very strong. Do you have anything to say to them?"
"I hope we can contribute a wonderful game together."
Chen Yiqiu did not shy away from it and was calm and composed: "Because I personally I am familiar with RNG before, so I am looking forward to this matchup."
"Ah..." Yu Shuang was stunned: "Is it gone?"
"Well...competitive sports, the winner is. King, I will defeat all opponents who stand in our way.”
boom!
The audience was in an uproar, followed by thunderous applause.
Modest, polite, and well-spoken.
Chen Yiqiu’s interviews are always like this. After a few questions, many LPL viewers who came into contact with him for the first time felt his unique charm.
But…
[I choose to support RNG. 】
【That’s it, my status as an SKT fan ends here for today. Next, I will be a glorious emperor! 】
【RNG kill me hard! Fuck SKT! 】
[Heroes and whites, you can all be upset now. SKT can support it when it meets other teams, but RNG is playing at home. Anyone who does not support RNG is not patriotic. 】
【Chen Shengzhen is full of charm on the court, but... I'm sorry, if you don't return to LPL for a day, you won't be able to get our recognition. 】
【us? You represent yourself. Except for the game between SKT and RNG, I am willing to be Chen Za! 】
[A little disappointed, it would be great if Chen Sheng said just now that he was willing to come back...]
The barrage surged, and the popularity exploded.
Based on Chen Yiqiu’s current public opinion environment in the LPL and his performance in today’s game, he has undoubtedly proven himself personally and accumulated popularity.
But at the same time, when facing the only representative team of this MSILPL, RNG, the giant that won the top spot in this spring split, 80% of the LPL viewers chose to support RNG.
This is understandable, after all, the home crowd supports the home team.
Chen Yiqiu didn't care about this. After the interview after the game, he declined Yu Shuang's invitation to do a special text interview.
Chen Yiqiu returned to the backstage, waited for his teammates to come back, and went back to the hotel together.
The reason for rejecting Yu Shuang was not that Chen Yiqiu was biased against the LPL competition area, but that the appointment time was unlucky and the process was a bit long, which overlapped with his training time.
I really accept it, I won’t have time to train today.
Ten minutes later, other members of SKT came back one after another. Everyone packed up their things, boarded the bus, and returned to the hotel.
……
At the same time.
Back office.
“Didn’t he accept it?”
The supervisor who had previously retreated behind the scenes and observed secretly asked Yu Shuang.
"No, he said it conflicts with the training time."
"It conflicts with the training time..."
The supervisor touched his chin, a little regretful: "I just want him to Conflict.”
“Huh?”
Yu Shuang was startled.
"Okay, okay. It's been a hard day today and the interview was good. You can go back first."
The supervisor waved his hand.
"Supervisor... I feel that Reaper actually doesn't care that much..."
Yu Shuang endured it, but still expressed his feelings after contacting Chen Yiqiu: "He... is really a A very pure player.”
"Ah?"
The supervisor was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled: "I know, okay, go ahead and do your work."
"Oh, okay."
Yu Shuang exited the room.
The decisions of the LPL’s official top management are obviously not something she can get involved in or speculate on.
"RNG has to win..."
"Winning SKT is such a morale-boosting thing..."
In the office, the supervisor scratched his head: "Don't like traffic? Don't like money?"
“The resources are not bad, just one text Interview, post-production video, and promised to be posted on the home page of the National Server Alliance client for half a month... This kind of treatment can only be compared to when EDG won the championship and the skin event."
The supervisor was puzzled. Pick up the phone and prepare to report the matter to higher-ups.
…
Inside the hotel.
After returning to the hotel, everyone in SKT didn’t even have time to rest, and immediately threw themselves into the training session.
The coaching staff is equally energetic and begins to analyze tomorrow's opponent RNG, and formulate a series of BP plans and alternative heroes.
Until dinner time, Chen Yiqiu, Li Sanghyuk and several friends went downstairs to eat together.
During this period, Chen Yiqiu caught a glimpse of Pei Junzhi holding the rice but not eating it, and kept having fun with his mobile phone.
“Hey, hey!”
I called the other person: “The piece of shit is about to fall into my bowl, why are you laughing there?”
“Ah? "
Pei Junzhi was startled, and quickly covered his phone like a reflex: "Secret!"
"Oh, I know."
Chen Yiqiu already knows Pei Junzhi's character very well. This guy is definitely a sultry man hidden in the SKT team, and he is also a huge traitor.
"We all agreed to be Chu Nan and be single together, but you ended up playing this trick with us, right?"
"Huh? No, I'm not in a relationship, you I don’t dare to say nonsense, I will be miserable if Kkoma hears it!”
Pei Junzhi turned pale with fright.
Sitting next to Chen Yiqiu, Lee Sang Hyuk, who had been lowering his head to eat and seemingly not caring about anything, suddenly raised his head and said in a voice eight times louder than usual: "What did you say?! Are you in love?!"
"Really?! Pei Junzhi is in love?! Oh my God... is it true or not? Who is he with?"
Chen Yiqiu immediately replied with a higher voice.
"...Xianghe, Yiqiu, you will hurt your brother's heart by playing like this."
Pei Junzhi's face was ashen.
"Ah, it turns out it's hosted by Park Ji-sun. I know, I know, it's the translator of the LCK English stream..."
"Haha, I also know, it's the girl with good looks and a very gentle personality. ..."
"Brother, there are few people here, I will kneel down for you. , please stop shouting..."
Pei Junzhi looked sad, his face flushed with anxiety: "If you shout again, my brother will die tomorrow!"
"Humph, let's talk, not talk. I didn’t talk about it. What’s wrong with chatting with a young lady? Why are you just being frivolous with us?”
Chen Yiqiu nodded with satisfaction: "Junzhi, you brat, brother, don't I know your strengths and weaknesses?"
"? Who are you calling brat?"
"Ah? Did I shout wrong? "
"No, brother, I am the younger brother, you are the older brother."
Pei Junzhi was convinced.
"Okay, stop playing. Didn't you say you want to win the game tomorrow? If you keep going like this, will your energy be able to keep up?"
Compared to the fight between Chen Yiqiu and Pei Junzhi, Lee Sang Hyuk is truly expressionless. .
Damn it, damn it.
"Xiang Hyuk, you have wrongly blamed me!"
Unexpectedly, when Pei Junzhi heard the sound, he seemed to have been stepped on, and immediately took out his mobile phone and handed it to the two of them as if to prove it: "I said I would help...win the game, and I will definitely win!"
"Did you see what I said? I asked for leave from Zhixuan and said that this MSI, please don't disturb me!"
Chen Yiqiu and Lee Sang Hyuk were startled, and then glanced over uncontrollably.
At this sight, the two of them were shocked.
I saw the conversation between Bae Junzhi and Park Ji-sun as follows——
Bae Junzhi: “Don’t disturb me these days. There is a very important game tomorrow, and this year’s MSI , we also have a reason to win, huh.”
Park Ji-sun: "A very important game? How important? You can't lie to me."
Bae Junsik: "How can I lie to you? It's very important! The game I have to win...than The finals are all important!”
Park Ji-sun: "Okay... let's talk about it another day."
Bae Junzhi: "You are so good...#￥@#%￥"
I didn't read the following content When he arrived, he was snatched back by Pei Junzhi.
But Lee Sang Hyuk and Chen Yi Qiu have turned to stone.
The former is because I didn’t expect that Pei Junzhi, a slut, would hook up with her after just two days together.
The original agreement was made that Chu Nan’s sacred heart was shattered, his faith collapsed, and the devil became furious.
Chen Yiqiu was simply because of the death conversation between Bae Junzhi and Park Ji-sun.
"You...not you, who taught you to chat with girls like this?"
Chen Yiqiu was anxious: "Didn't I tell you that a few words are not good, don't say them casually!"
"Huh?" Pei Junzhi was startled and said quickly: "No, it's Li Zaiwan. Li Zaiwan told me last time , he specifically asked his Chinese friends , that’s a compliment...Axi! I know, that bitch Li Zaiwan!”
“…Awesome”
< br>Chen Yiqiu was speechless and could only give a thumbs up.
What a pair of bad friends.
He can already imagine how much more red will appear on Li Zaiwan’s 300 kilograms of fat tomorrow.
In this way, amidst Pei Junzhi’s wolf-like scream, SKT had no sleep that night.
The next day.
The second day of the MSI group stage.
Early in the morning, SKT arrived at the Oriental Sports Center.
Enter the backstage venue to check in and start preparing for today’s ‘first decisive battle’ with RNG.
