China Entertainment's whatever you want

[Fight to the Peak] should be the first e-sports variety show in China.

Similar to the TV series "You Are My Glory" that Gu Wei once filmed, this variety show was tailor-made by Tencent for its top game "Honor of Kings".

The program invited 30 e-sports newcomers in the arts and literature field to form different teams, and through rounds of competition, the champion was finally decided.

Gu Wei came to participate in the last game of the competition. After layers of competition, the last two teams will decide the real champion this night.

To be honest, although Tencent has put a lot of effort into "Fight to the Peak" and invested huge amounts from investment and production to inviting guests, the popularity of this variety show is not high.

Even with the participation of as many as 30 celebrity artists and the addition of top stars like Da Mimi, the limitations of e-sports variety shows themselves mean that the possibility of the show becoming a big hit is not high.

Although [Honor of Kings] is very popular, true game fans are only a small part of the much larger number of ordinary audiences.

For gamers, the gaming level in e-sports variety shows is too low; it is better to just watch the KPL professional competitions.

For non-gamers, the scenes of e-sports competitions are dazzling. They cannot understand the terminology and cannot understand what the two sides are doing.

Therefore, no matter how many stars there are, they can only rely on the popularity of the stars themselves to attract audiences in the early stages. If the content is not good and the variety show is not attractive, the subsequent audience will quickly disappear.

The private plane landed in Qindao. After leaving the airport, Gu Wei and his entourage got into the car that came to pick him up.

Arriving at Studio 28 in Oriental Movie Metropolis, the recording venue of "Fight to the Peak", he first met with the program's chief director and producer. After chatting for a while, he met Yang Mi backstage.

"Miss~"

Da Mimi had already put on her makeup, wearing a casual plaid shirt on her upper body, a short skirt and long boots on her lower body, showing off her long white legs.

Her long wavy hair was combed into cute twin ponytails, paired with delicate makeup, giving people the feeling of a gaming girl.

"Is the filming finished?"

Yang Mi was also very happy to see Gu Wei. Although they often sent WeChat messages and called each other, they hadn't seen each other for a while.

“Not yet, there’s still about half a month to wrap up.

When you called me last month, you were still recording [Flowers and Youth]. How come you suddenly became a contestant of [Fight to the Peak]?"

“The recording of [Flowers and Youth] took only 15 days, and it was finished long ago.

After that, I will go to this variety show."

"Tsk, tsk, really busy.

I remember you were still recording [Escape the Room Season 4], right? You’ve appeared on so many variety shows in a year, you’ve really become a variety show star.” Gu Wei joked with a smile.

Yang Mi waved her hand indifferently: "What's wrong with being a variety show star? Why don't you do a job that pays well and requires little effort?

Besides, I also want to act, but there are no good opportunities, right? "

As she said this, she looked at Gu Wei with some resentment: "You don't even think about me when you start the show now.

When we met, she called me "sister" and was very affectionate, but in the end, she never thought of anything good for me."

“Well, there just aren’t any suitable roles.” Gu Wei didn’t expect that he was the one being blamed.

"Isn't this TV series you're filming good? Liu Yifei can act in it but I can't?"

“Please, big sister, the drama I’m filming now is produced by Huace, and I found Yifei first.

I was able to take the job because she strongly recommended it.”

"Hmph~
Yifei? You sound so intimate."

Yang Mi muttered quietly.

"By the way, I didn't watch the previous episodes of [Battle to the Peak]. With your gaming level, how come you didn't make it to the finals?" Gu Wei asked curiously.

In the final of the Peak Night that will be held later, Yang Mi will be a guest commentator just like him.

Obviously, as one of the 30 artist contestants, her team did not get into the role.

Gu Wei often competed with Yang Mi in rankings, so he had a better understanding of her level.

It's definitely not comparable to professional players, but it's considered excellent among ordinary people.

Most of the contestants invited to [Battle to the Peak] are celebrity artists, their skills are not very high, and some of them don’t even know how to play. Yang Mi is definitely considered a master among them.

"Don't mention it. I can only hit a few nails if I'm made of iron. If my teammates are too weak, I can't do anything about it.

Besides, Ao Ziyi, Hu Xia, and Justin all played well."

Speaking of this, Yang Mi was also helpless.

Zhang Dada in her team is a real jerk. If it weren't for the show, she would have cursed while playing games.

After saying that, she looked up at Gu Wei and said, "If you participate in this program, we can form a team and definitely make it to the finals and win the championship!"

Gu Wei knew Yang Mi's strength, and Yang Mi was naturally very clear about Gu Wei's level.

When the two of them ranked together, it was usually Gu Wei who took her flying.

In Yang Mi's opinion, his gaming skills are almost reaching the level of professional players.

"Don't say I don't have time. Even if I really participated, given our fame, the organizers would definitely divide us into two teams, and we would be opponents then."

"Haha, I don't want to be your opponent~"

"After the peak night decides the champion team, there will be a friendly match. I will take you flying then!"

It is impossible for Gu Wei to come all the way to participate in the program just to be a guest commentator, as that would be a waste of his appearance.

The program team specially arranged a friendly match, in which Gu Wei and Yang Mi formed a star team, and then selected three previously eliminated guests to play against the winning king team.

"Okay, okay, I'll be your assistant." Da Mimi was a little excited.

Normally, when playing against others with Gu Wei, as long as we don't encounter any bad guys, we can always win very comfortably.

After staying backstage for a while, today's Peak Night finals officially began. Gu Wei, Yang Mi and two other professional commentators sat in the commentary area together.

"Hello, Teacher Gu Wei!"

The two professional commentators were both boys and looked very young. When they saw Gu Wei, they greeted him enthusiastically.

Gu Wei also responded with a smile.

After an opening dance, the two hosts came on stage and this year’s Peak Night Finals officially began.

The two teams competing for the championship are S.Carry Team (Ao Ziyi, Zhang Han, Wang Lin, He Youjun, Lai Meiyun, Ye Xiangming) and 0829 Team (Huang Minghao, Ding Ruoxu, He Sui, Li Xueqin, He Hongshan).

Although most of them are artists, since they have reached the finals, their level is not too bad, and both teams have one or two powerful people.

Before the finals officially began, Zhou Keyu, Liu Yu, Xu Tianqi and Gong Jun took the lead in individual competitions. Gong Jun used an unexpected Miledy to defeat Xu Tianqi.

Then he used Diao Chan's detailed operations to defeat the wild king Zhou Keyu and won the title of singles king.

"Teacher Gong Jun is very capable. It's a pity that our team failed to advance before!"

The commentator praised Gong Jun and said this after the individual competition.

In fact, according to real strength, Gong Jun is not even among the top five among the 30 contestants. He was able to win only because the other three in the individual competition were too weak.

"Teacher Gu Wei, do you have many opportunities to play King of Glory?"

"I started playing early, but I'm usually busy with work, so I don't have many opportunities to play~"

Gu Wei told the truth.

"If you want to know how Gu Wei plays, just ask me. I usually drag him into ranking together," Yang Mi interrupted at this time.

"Oh? Sister Mi, can you tell me what level Teacher Gu Wei is at?"

"I don't know if you have watched a TV series he starred in before, called "You Are My Glory", in which Gu Wei played a top student who was very good at playing "King of Glory".

I feel like his skills in real life are no worse than what he shows in the drama.

I usually invite him to play duo with me when I play games. As long as he has time to log in, he will definitely help me rank up! "

"Teacher Gu Wei is so amazing!

Then the audience of the friendly match will be able to have an eye-opener."

After the host sighed, Gu Wei smiled modestly: "Miss Mi is exaggerating, I am not as amazing as she said.

[Honor of Kings] is a game for five people, and the most important thing is cooperation."

The individual competition was over but the final had not started yet. A few people were chatting in the comment section and the audience's attention was all on Gu Wei and Yang Mi.

"I really want to watch Gu Wei play games. I wonder if he is really as good as Yang Mi said?"

"It doesn't look like a compliment. There will be a friendly match later. We will know whether our skills are good or not once we get on the field!"

"Gu Wei is so handsome. It would be perfect if he could play games well too!"

"Gu Wei is the real-life version of Yu Tu. It's a pity that Reba didn't come, otherwise today's game would have been a classic. It would have brought back You Are My Glory."

“Da Mimi is fine too, I really want to see her cooperate with Gu Wei.

The Great Mimi Chosen Game Girl! "

At this time, the chief director and producer were also chatting in the studio.

"With Gu Wei's appearance, the attention and click volume of the finals will definitely increase dramatically!"

“What a pity! If Gu Wei could participate in the competition from the very first episode like Yang Mi, the attention to our variety show would definitely go up a notch!” Chief Director Yu Chunlong said with some regret.

“There’s nothing we can do about it, Gu Wei is too famous.

When we were preparing for this variety show, Mr. Sun invited him, but his schedule was too full to spare the time."

The Mr. Sun mentioned by the producer is Sun Zhonghuai, the president of Tencent Video, who is also the producer of "Fight to the Peak".

It wasn't long before tonight's real championship match officially began.

The finals were best of five. In the first game, Huang Minghao of the red team made a strong counterattack, and the blue team urgently supported him. The two sides ended up in a one-for-one tie.

Then, the blue team's Lai Meiyun's Xishi performed well. First, she grabbed the tyrant by herself, and then, with the low economy, she played with full control output.

Cooperating with Ao Ziyi's strong catching, they created a perfect rhythm.

Relying on the advantages accumulated in the early stage, the blue team pushed forward all the way and finally won the victory.

"Lai Meiyun played very well, Huang Minghao played quite well, but it's a pity that his teammates were a little weak.

Ao Ziyi of the blue team had the cooperation of Lai Meiyun, and the two of them played together to gain an advantage," Gu Wei analyzed after watching the first game.

"The Red Team's He Sui's Ying Zheng and Li Xueqin's assists didn't play a big role. If the Red Team wants to turn the situation around in the second game, it may be difficult for Huang Minghao to do it alone. He also needs the support of his teammates."

"Xueqin usually plays well, but her performance just now was a little abnormal. Let's see if she can recover later." Yang Mi has the best relationship with Huang Minghao, so she naturally hopes that he can win.

In the second game, Li Xueqin chose the hero she was good at, Donghuang. He first sucked in Zhang Han's Li Yuanfang, and then bit Yunying in the middle lane, winning two team battles.

Next, she continued to perform well, hitting the opponent's core in succession. Luban No. 7 won three consecutive games and helped the team win the game.

One to one, the final was quite tense.

However, it turned out that there was still a certain gap in strength between the two teams. The victory in the second game was due to Li Xueqin's outstanding performance, and also because S.Carry team underestimated the enemy after winning a game.

In the third game, the S.Carry team did not give the opponent any chances after taking it seriously. With the cooperation of Lai Meiyan and Ao Ziyi, they frantically captured people in the early stage and in the later team battles, one controlled the opponent and the other dealt damage. They quickly pushed up the high ground and won the victory.

Lai Meiyan also won the MVP of the third game because of her outstanding performance.

It was match point.

Huang Minghao and others from the 0829 team were very nervous.

Unfortunately, they failed to reverse the unfavorable situation and still lost the fourth game.

In the end, S-carry won the championship of [Fight to the Peak] with excellent teamwork and stable performance, and Ao Ziyi also won the F-MVP as he wished.

"What hero do you use?"

After the final round, the friendly match will begin, and Yang Mi wants to determine what Gu Wei will play.

"How do you want to win?"

The two of them had already left the comment section, so their words would not be heard by others, so Gu Wei became much more casual.

"What do you mean?" Da Mimi didn't understand.

"In my opinion, the S.Carry team has some strength, but its shortcomings are also obvious. Except for Ao Ziyi and Lai Meiyun, the skills of the other three players are very mediocre.

He Xianjun had neither merit nor demerit, Ye Xiangming's skills were average, and Zhang Han was a bit aggressive and not very willing to cooperate.

If you make breakthroughs from these three points, it will be easy to win the game."

"What do you want to do?" Gu Wei's tone was loud, but Yang Mi did not doubt his ability at all.

“If you want to cooperate, I will choose a hero with balanced abilities, and we can fight together.

If I want to win overwhelmingly, I will use a hero who can harvest in succession. As long as I have a big economic lead, it won’t be a problem to fight five people alone.”

"If we are going to win, we must win big!" Yang Mi said without hesitation.

Gu Wei smiled and said, "I see. Just watch me."

After a while of preparation, the friendly match began.

In addition to Gu Wei and Yang Mi, Gong Jun, Li Xueqin and He Sui joined their team as supplementary players.

"Brother Wei, Sister Mi, take me flying!" Li Xueqin was very familiar with Gu Wei and Yang Mi, and said with a smile when they met.

"Don't worry, Xueqin, Gu Wei has said that he will carry this time!" Yang Mi glanced at Gu Wei and said to Li Xueqin with a smile.

Gong Jun and He Sui came forward to greet Gu Wei, and they both seemed a little reserved.

Gu Wei exchanged a few polite words with them and began to arrange the formation. He asked for a seat first.

"I'll play jungle, you guys can play as you please, but be cautious in the early stages and wait for me to help you."

"Then I'll be the shooter, and Xueqin, you'll assist me!" Yang Mi said.

"I'll play mid lane~" Gong Jun also asked for the position he was good at.

In the end, the journey was left to He Sui.

"The S.Carry team chose the lineup they are good at, Ying Zheng, Hou Yi double C, and Lu Ban Master.

This lineup has strong output, but is a little fragile.

Let’s take a look at what heroes the all-star team has chosen.

Yang Mi chose Baili Shouyi and Li Xueqin chose Niu Mo. It seems that these two are going to go to the bottom lane.

Teacher Gu Wei chose Zhuge Liang, a hero that requires a lot of skill. I don’t know if he will play as a jungler or a mid laner.”

As the commentator introduced their game, both teams selected their heroes and the friendly match officially began.

Zhuge Liang used by Gu Wei is a very powerful harvesting mage with both obvious shortcomings and advantages.

A game with a favorable wind is almost unsolvable. If we talk about the ceiling of snowballing, it must be Zhuge Liang. As long as the economy is ahead enough, no matter whether the enemy is in the front or back row, the passive magic ball can lightly sweep it, and then the ultimate move can be used in seconds to carry it away.

However, once the economy cannot keep up, Zhuge Liang's effectiveness will plummet. His output is weak, and he himself is fragile, so he can hardly play any role in team battles.

Since Gu Wei used him, he was naturally confident that he could win the game with an overwhelming advantage.

At the beginning of the friendly match, the three lanes of the star team developed in a sneaky way according to the guard's request and did not stand out.

Soon, Yang Mi and Li Xueqin in the bottom lane were pushed under the tower. Hou Yi on the opposite side had just walked forward a little after crossing the center line when Zhuge Liang, who had just finished killing the wild monsters, emerged from the bushes.

At this time, Li Xueqin's Niu Mo also stepped forward in time, and with the cooperation of Baili Shouyao's gun, Zhuge Liang took down two heads in the bottom lane in just a few moves.

"awesome!"

Yang Mi was extremely happy as he got two assists at the start.

"Keep growing, don't move too far forward, I'll come back later."

Gu Wei said this and controlled Zhuge Liang to dive back into the grass.

“It seems that what Sister Mi said was true, Teacher Gu Wei is very strong.

I can’t see much from the technique of the catching just now, but my awareness is perfect.”

"Yes, this game depends on whether the S.Carry team can control Zhuge Liang's growth. If he can develop, then this game will be a sure win."

The two commentators analyzed the situation and praised Gu Wei.

"Wow, Gu Wei's Zhuge Liang is so handsome!"

"I got two heads right away and took off!"

"It's really amazing. The big star is also a game expert!"

The audience was also discussing the arrest that had just taken place.

After taking two kills, Zhuge Liang quickly supported the middle and top lanes.

Although the opponent was already alert, he still forced to kill Ying Zheng, who only had half of his health left.

After gaining some economic advantage at the beginning, Zhuge Liang's equipment has gradually improved, and he has a great advantage in damage.

"Don't panic, everyone, be quiet, let's band together and catch them in one go."

Ao Ziyi, who played Zhao Yun, comforted his teammates while arranging tactics.

He took two people to the middle lane and crossed the tower to kill Gong Jun's Angela. No one from his own team died, but they all had low health.

At this time, Zhuge Liang appeared again in the grass in the river, and he smoothly harvested three heads with a series of combos.

"It's over, the opponent's Zhuge Liang has shown up, he can kill people instantly.

"Flimsy heroes like Hou Yi and Ying Zheng will die as soon as they show up." Lai Meiyu frowned, and was very pessimistic about the situation of her team.

Just as she said, Zhuge Liang, who had been harvesting heads continuously, had accumulated a huge advantage and was far ahead of the opponent in economy.

When facing a squishy target, he has the ability to kill them instantly.

"This awareness and operation are not inferior to many professional e-sports players. Teacher Gu Wei's skills are very strong!"

“Yes, Zhuge Liang had actually arrived a long time ago, and he predicted that the opponent would cross the tower to kill people.

And the last set of harvests was very smooth, and the health calculation was very accurate!"

While the commentator was praising the player crazily, there was also cheering from the audience.

Gu Wei’s operation just now was indeed amazing.

After getting a triple kill, Zhuge Liang started to capture people all over the map, single kill, double kill, triple kill, the field became his own show.

The S.Carry team was forced into a corner and had no choice but to gather together and not dare to separate, and start a head-on fight.

As a result, Zhuge Liang showed his head and turned around and left, pulling the five opposing heroes away, waiting for his own teammates to fill the position, and then turned around and attacked.

“Oh my god, five consecutive peerless!

Gu Wei, you are too fierce! "

The enemy team was wiped out in one wave, and no one on their side was killed. Yang Mi waved his fist excitedly, and the other teammates also looked happy.

After this team battle, the situation became even more one-sided.

Soon after the Star Team won another teamfight, they successfully pushed up the high ground and destroyed the crystal. (End of this chapter)
