Chapter 40 What? Have I become a beach boy? !

[Ding-Stamp collection task progress update. 】

[Collect stamps and kill 5 times against MSI and S tournament champion mid laners (collected stamps: Faker, Crown, Pawn, 3/5)丨Task requirements: ①Korean server master and above ranked or professional In the arena, ② each player is only counted once丨Task Difficulty: ☆☆☆☆☆丨Task Reward: The proficiency of any hero in the designated MSI, S competition champion - Master. 】

“Phew—this mission is still difficult to complete, and only three-fifths of it has been completed so far.”

Close the LOL Korean server client and look at the lower right corner of the screen. Time has passed. It's past 3 o'clock in the morning.

Today is October 13th. During these two days of rest, in addition to taking care of Xiao Yu who had a fever and spending time dealing with agents who were eager to sign a new contract, Cui Ze devoted almost all his time to arranging arrangements. among the positions.

The Korean server king has 760 points, and his winning points have exceeded his ranking points before the playoffs. This is the result of his hard work.

However, this score is still a little short of the top 100 Korean server kings. It is currently only 112. There is still some distance to climb before the top ten Korean server players agreed with Sister Jihyun.

However, I was pretty lucky. I met Crown Brother and Fat General in the two days of ranking, and I also seized the opportunity to complete solo kills.

To be honest, this task is indeed difficult to complete. After all, excluding Rookie, who has not yet won the championship, the four champion mid laners who can meet the task conditions are Faker, Pawn, Crown and Xiaohu.

So, I have to find an opportunity to torture the prison tiger!

Sleep!

I still have work to do during the day, so try to move around more and make more progress on the stamp collecting tasks of the commentators and hosts.

After not seeing each other for a day, Cui Ze suddenly noticed that Xiao Yu looked at him very strangely.

There was no IG game on the first day of the group stage, so she stayed in the hotel lying dead. There was an IG game on the second day, but she had a fever and couldn't go. On the third day, although she felt much better, she still needed to rest. .

Today is the fourth match day of the group stage. If you miss today, you will have to wait until the 17th to watch the IG game, so Xiao Yu also got on the bus.

Because Teacher Xiran was there, Cui Ze couldn't talk to her directly, so he picked up the phone and made a gesture with his eyes.

Xiao Yu understood what he meant immediately, took out his mobile phone and saw a WeChat message from Cui Ze.

[Cui Ze: Sister Xiaoyu, I really didn’t mean it. Can you please stop looking at me like that? 】

After reading this sentence, Xiao Yu immediately raised his head and glared at him, with a murderous look in his eyes.

[Xiaoyu_Hilda: If you mention this again, I will kill you! (Chop Knife)]

[Cui Ze: Then why do you look at me like that? 】

【Xiaoyu_Hilda: You don’t know? 】

[Cui Ze: I should know? 】

【小環_Hilda：.】

[Share: "LPL Behind the Scenes Story" A boy from the seaside - Cui Ze Veronica]

Cui Ze's eyes widened immediately. Although he still didn't know what the content of the article forwarded by Xiao Yu was, but just When he saw the four words "seaside boy" in the title, he felt like he wanted to faint.

What?

Have I become a beach boy? !

Clicking the link and entering Weibo, Cui Ze discovered that this article was actually published by the LPL official account [League of Legends Tournament].

Time 2018-10-13, 09:15.

It was posted this morning, when he was still sleeping in bed!

Okay, okay, I didn’t expect that, Teacher Xiran, you actually wrote an article for me without saying a word?

I looked up and was about to ask what was going on, but I saw Teacher Xiran wearing a blindfold to catch up on her sleep.

I have to work at the S game in the afternoon and evening, doing interviews and translating. It’s late at night after get off work and I have to find time to write character articles for him. It’s very hard.

Forget it, let her continue to sleep.

Cui Ze turned his gaze back and continued reading this article.

"After spending 18 years of his life simply and quietly, Cui Ze's future is like the blue sea he grew up with. It still has broad space and infinite possibilities." This is the introduction of the article, attached below Posted a photo of Cui Ze in makeup after joining the OG team.

This photo was taken in December 2017. At that time, his appearance was obviously much greener than now, with a pot head that looked a bit silly. The contrast with the current exquisite three-to-seven points is very obvious.

But that's not important.

The important thing is

“No, this.”

Cui Ze turned to look at Xiao Yu with a strange expression and pointed randomly at what he was talking about.

Xiao Yu did not speak, but quickly tapped on the phone, and then without clicking send, he directly picked up the screen and handed it to Cui Ze.

【Congratulations, you are going to be popular! 】

Nonsense, what do you want to say?

Cui Ze went back and leaned against the car window, watching the street scene of Busan passing by, and immediately started the self-isolation mode.

Cui Ze is not very clear about why Xiran wrote this article to him, but he sees the faint feelings in Xiran’s eyes on weekdays, so he has this article. The article is not surprising.

But the key point is that this article was published by the official account of LPL [League of Legends Competition], so that explains the problem!

Some leaders in the alliance have taken a fancy to him and want to promote him!

This "praise" is not even close to the "god-making" plan like the factory director and Uzi. It is probably just Cui Ze's brief appearance in the World Championship, which triggered many discussions among players and audiences. , plus his own image is very good, so I want to establish a character before he officially enters the LPL.

This is a consistent marketing method of the alliance. In fact, it is nothing new. After all, this kind of thing is learned from the entertainment industry. It is simple and efficient.

As for the specific content of the article, you don’t need to read Cui Ze to know that based on Teacher Xiran’s thoughts about himself, no matter how simple and unpretentious the words used in it, he will eventually be shaped into a He has gone through all kinds of hardships and setbacks, but has always maintained a tenacious attitude as a young man.

He will write about how he got involved with e-sports step by step and worked hard to achieve this seemingly inconspicuous achievement at the moment, but "like the blue sea, the future is promising."

In short, besides the front, the front, it’s the front!

But this is what troubles Cui Ze the most.

He has a very clear understanding of himself. Although the stories that may appear in the article were all told by him to Xiran during the chat, and why his parents divorced early and his grandmother went through all kinds of hardships to save him. It is true that someone was raised but died young and died young.

But those are just his life experiences. Going through these life experiences does not mean that he will definitely grow into a simple-minded young man.

Well, at this point in his previous life, he was indeed a seaside boy with an extremely simple mind.

But now Cui Ze has been reborn with the memories of his previous life. Although he still maintains the image of a simple boy until now, he is already a Neptune full of playfulness in his heart.

So, it is true that Teacher Xiran’s article can add a lot of popularity, but just like the original story of “A Boy from the Sea”, it gained more players’ attention on the eve of the World Championship. Same as Huanfeng.

Once Cui Ze does something inconsistent with his character in the future and is exposed in the public eye, then the character of this "simple boy" will become an important source of backlash against him.

A boy at the beach?

Sea whip boy!

But if it really comes to that point, there is nothing we can do.

The best way is not to be a monster, to develop your character to the end like Lao Li Tou, not to fall in love, put an end to bad hobbies, and love League of Legends and League of Legends e-sports for ten years.

But Cui Ze knows that he is not Lee Sang Hyuk, he is just himself.

He does not have enough courage to force himself to maintain such harsh professional requirements, and it is impossible for him to refuse this wave of enthusiasm from the alliance. What's more, this article was also written by Teacher Xiran. It was done, and there was no way he could refuse it no matter what.

Therefore, since you choose to eat this wave of traffic, you must be prepared for the collapse of your personality and the backlash of public opinion one day in the future.

There is no need to think so much and worry about the future, just let it take its course.
