Chapter 96 Li Zhien: I'mtheFlashlight
Nofe never thought in his life that he would be so close to IU one day.
One minute ago, he was singing along to IU's songs in the training room. In his mind, he imagined that when he made enough money and got married, he would take his current girlfriend and future wife to IU's concert.
If I can grab infield tickets and shake hands with IU when she starts interacting, I will be satisfied in this life.
Sitting up in shock while dying of illness, Nofe straightened up and stood up holding on to the seat.
"Really. Is it really IU?"
Li Zhien smiled and replied: "It doesn't look like it? You didn't put on much makeup when you came here today, so you can't recognize it?"
"No, no!" Nofe waved her hands repeatedly, "IUxi is the most beautiful with or without makeup! I just didn't expect to be here."
Before he finished speaking, Nofe saw another girl with skin as beautiful as snow walking behind Li Zhien.
Compared to Li Zhien's girlish look with a bit of baby fat on her face, the person who came in later seems to be more appropriately described as "woman" in terms of appearance and body.
I saw her wandering casually for two steps, and asked Lin Qiguang with lazy eyes: "Is this the training room for e-sports players? It's different from what you imagined. Which machine is yours?"
Nofe grabbed the tall Smeb next to him. The two looked at each other and said in unison: "Cui Shirley?"
Things started to get magical.
Although they had known for a long time that Lin Qiguang's identity was unusual, it wasn't until IU and Cui Xueli appeared in front of everyone that they really dared to confirm that Lin Qiguang's identity was indeed extraordinary.
Nofe was probably the one who really wanted to understand something. After all, he knew that when Lin Qiguang returned in the summer split, the unconditional sponsorship he brought came from Kakao.
Following the clues, Kakao's second largest shareholder is a Chinese group called "Jiasheng", and the chairman and CEO of this group is named Lin.
Then it all makes sense.
Li Zhien is indeed a national-level singer. The Tigers were extremely excited about her arrival and lined up one by one to take photos.
Nofe ran back to his room at a sprint speed of 100 meters, found the extremely precious "Flower Bookmark" album from the suitcase, and got the coveted autograph.
Later, Li Zhien was afraid that Cui Zhenli would be left out, so he took her to take a group photo. Finally, all the team members came with them to take a group photo.
The person in charge of taking photos can naturally only be the hard-working younger brother Lee Jong-hoon.
Afterwards, Nofe discussed with Li Zhien and Cui Zhenli, hoping to send some of the group photos to the official accounts of ROXTigers' various platforms, and promised that they would be accompanied by watertight copywriting.
He had probably guessed that Li Zhien and Cui Zhenli came here to visit Lin Qiguang, but if they wanted to post these group photos online, they would have to make up a story.
Li Zhien thought for a while and started "brainwashing" his younger brother Li Zhongxun:
"Zhongxun, please remember that you are a passionate young man who loves LOL e-sports very much. You have been deeply moved by the spirit of the Tigers since they established the team. This time my sister comes to the United States to visit you. You hope to be able to compete with this team. I met my favorite team, do you understand?”
Li Zhongxun could only nod numbly after listening to his elder sister's words.
If you don't nod, it won't work. If you don't nod, your army will be cut off.
Damn it, the inhumane Li Zhien!
After Li Zhien took care of his poor brother, Lin Qiguang suddenly remembered something and went back to the room to get a ROX team uniform with his ID printed on it.
Holding the team uniform and gesturing up and down at Li Zhien, Lin Qiguang shook his head and said: "Unfortunately, this dress is still a bit too big."
"What do you mean?" Li Zhien didn't understand what Lin Qiguang meant for a while.
Lin Qiguang smiled slightly because he remembered the scene of Xuanmei wearing a DWG-Showmaker jersey and posting a selfie on Instagram during the 2020 Summer Split.
At that time, Xu Xiu had not yet won the global finals championship, but he was already recognized as the top mid laner in the world, so the linkage also triggered a heated discussion among players.
Today is the day before the S6 global finals championship game. If Li Zhien is allowed to wear a ROX-Flashlight jersey and take a selfie at this time, what kind of reaction will it cause?
A few minutes later, Li Zhien's INS account posted an update.
【dlwlrma】：I'mtheFlashlight.
On the surface, it seems to be just a linkage, but in fact it contains a profound meaning, coupled with several selfies of Li Zhien wearing a ROX-Flashlight jersey (pictured).
Exploded.
【? ? ? ? ? ? 】
[What kind of fantasy linkage is this? IU×Flashlight? 】
[Isn’t it said that ROX is disbanding? How can IU be invited to join forces? 】
[Didn’t you watch Hotspot? My younger brother Lee Jong-hoon is a fan of the ROX team. IU went to the United States to visit him this time, and was begged by his younger brother to go to Los Angeles to meet @ROXTigers, so this linkage came about. 】
[Who in the family understands? As a Uaena and I also like Flashlight, how about I smash this pair of CPs directly? ! This time, I’ll give you, Lee Jong-xun, the first credit! 】
[I'm the Flashlight, do you think there is a possibility that the Flashlight contestant's "Ms. Kwang" is actually not host Eunjung, but IU? 】
[No need to be so imaginative, this is just a normal cross-circle linkage. Didn’t you see Shirley following along? I just want to go to the United States for a few days to fulfill my younger brother's dream. 】
[My younger brother met his idol. IU, Flashlight players and the ROX team gained popularity. Where is Faker? What is Faker doing? 】
【#FakerSTATE#】
The copywriting is bold, and a very few fans have speculated about Li Zhien's "I'm the Flashlight", but after all, the cause and effect of the matter are explained very clearly on the ROX Tigers official account.
Therefore, the majority of Uaena (IU’s fan name) and netizens are simply dismissive of the pairing of IU×Flashlight from the perspective of “talented and beautiful”.
If this can prove the special relationship between Li Zhien and Lin Qiguang, then she has collaborated with so many male artists and male singers over the years, and there will be so many CPs that she can form, and it will be endless.
——
October 29, 2016, Los Angeles time!
16:00 sharp!
It was still morning in East Asia at this time, and countless players who loved League of Legends gave up the idea of sleeping in on Sunday and turned on their computers and mobile phones early in the morning, waiting for the S6 Global Finals championship battle to arrive!
After a week of fermentation, several hot spots broke out during the period, making LOL players around the world full of expectations for this pinnacle battle.
Although among those hot spots, the "big devil" Faker, who dominated two League of Legends global finals, was reduced to the background, this also made people look forward to Faker's performance on the final stage.
Judging from the data and performance on the field, Flashlight did suppress Faker in this year's global finals, but the two teams have not officially played against each other, and the ending is still confusing.
Now there is a saying making fun of Faker in the circle: Eunjung is yours, and IU has also made a dream linkage with you. You are already a winner in life, so the championship should be mine, right?
In such a happy public opinion environment, the opening ceremony of the League of Legends 2016 Global Finals kicked off!
"Ten!" "Nine!" "Eight!" "Seven!" "Six!"
"Five!"
"Four!"
"Tree!"
"Two!"
"One!"
After the passionate countdown ended, the "Rose Boy" that people expected did not play.
According to Riot "insiders", if the ROX Tigers can finally win the championship, then the Chinese-Canadian singer Xianhua Liu will perform a solo of this music at the post-game awards ceremony.
If ROXTigers fails to win the championship in the end, then naturally this song will not be played.
"World Championship" played slowly, and the floor screen projection in the center of the stage began to show animated special effects, and heroes familiar to the players appeared one after another.
The flames of Annie and Tibbers, Nami's Tides of Raging Sea, Vladimir's blood magic, the brute force of the bull-headed chieftain Alistar, the steam robot Blitzcrank, and the wandering mage Ryze who travels around for Runeterra.< br>
The animated voices of heroes appeared one by one, which resonated with countless LOL players, and more and more viewers flocked to the live broadcast room.
Then the S6 theme song "Ignite (Burning)" seamlessly connected and continued to ignite the audience's enthusiasm.
Lin Qiguang stood in the audience and watched this audio-visual feast with his teammates.
Calling it an audio-visual feast is actually a bit underqualified. "Ignite" is indeed a good attempt by Riot Games to integrate electronic music into its own music system. However, this song can only be average for Zedd.
After the performance of "Ignite" ended, a more explosive rhythm "ChosenOnes" sounded, and the wonderful replays of ROX and SKT's S6 World Championship lit up at the same time.
"Faker! A set of simple combos, tilted with dark energy, single-handedly killed the snake girl Jensen!"
"Bang! Bigbang! Ezreal dances in the crowd, like an emotionless output machine. He is simply the incarnation of Ezreal in the world!"
"The big backhand move from Wolf! The wave of the angry sea knocked four people away! Then another water bubble controlled two people, and SKT completed the team elimination!"
After SKT, there is ROX.
"Flashlight teleported back! Three-piece male gun in hand - two shots to kill Caitlin! Another ultimate blast to kill Olaf! The ROXTigers are about to end the game!"
"Elise has been crouching in the grass for nearly 20 seconds, but he finally waited for his prey. The cocoon hit! Under a standard combo, the male gun could only flee in panic, but it was useless! Peanut ! Spider King! ”
"SSG's goal is very determined! Jace hasn't rushed back to the battlefield yet. Is the ROX teamfight about to collapse? No! Pray stepped forward! The longbow in his hand rained down arrows mercilessly! Pentakill! Pray led the ROXTigers team to annihilation SSG!”
At the end of the shot, Lin Qiguang walked up the steps step by step with a cold face, reaching the top, with the strong wind blowing around him.
Opposite him, a black gold throne stood. On the throne sat Faker, holding a broccoli in his hand and wearing black-rimmed glasses.
Faker took a small bite of broccoli, stood up from the throne and said coldly: "No one can defeat me, I am a legend!"
Lin Qiguang put his hands in his pockets and said with disdain: "Tonight, I will kill the Legend!"
The promo ends.
The scene is boiling! Sorry for the late update, the status is a little bad today
Today there will be at least one more chapter of 3k updates. As for whether there will be a third chapter, I can’t guarantee it
I will adjust as soon as possible and strive to still have more than 8k updates tomorrow QAQ
