LOL: The No. 1 Succubus in the eSports Circle

Chapter 31 No, buddy, who are you?

"Welcome all League of Legends players and viewers from around the world to join us at the Busan Exhibition and Convention Center to witness the opening of the 2018 Global Finals group stage! "

"This is——Busan Smecta!!!"

It was the first time for Choi Taek to watch the opening of a large-scale e-sports event at such a close distance. Although the word "large-scale" is debatable, after all, it is only the group stage, and the Busan Exhibition and Convention Center Auditorium has only 4 seats, and it is not even full yet.

Another thing that must be mentioned is that the opening of "The Roaring Emperor" Kim Yong-jun really livened up the atmosphere. This roaring hosting style might be a bit exaggerated when viewed online, but it is not at all inconsistent for offline viewing.

Watching the game offline, how can it be called offline if it’s not exciting?
It's all done once you get dry!
On October 10, the 10 League of Legends World Championship group stage kicked off for global players by South Korea's LCK No. 2018 seed KT team and North America's LCS No. seed TL team.

As a translator, Cui Ze naturally has the power to come and go freely between the front desk and backstage. Although there is a large TV broadcasting live in the lounge, he still prefers to experience the passion on site.

After a brief opening, the accompaniment of the theme song "Rise" sounded in the venue. The defending champion GEN.G team, led by captain Ambition, placed the Summoner's Cup, which symbolizes the honor of the League of Legends e-sports professional high school, in the center of the stage for players on site and around the world to watch.

After the Summoner's Cup was unveiled, Choi Taek's eyes were fixed on it for a long time, and he didn't even pay attention to what Kim Yong-jun said afterwards.

For ordinary players and spectators, this trophy symbolizes that another team will be engraved in the annals of League of Legends e-sports history, and means that five or six more heroes will receive new championship skins with the team + ID prefix.

For professional players like Cui Ze who have already embarked on the road to pursuing their dreams in e-sports, the Summoner's Cup shining in the center of the stage is the original intention of their embarking on this road, and it is also the supreme honor that they want to give their all and dream of winning.

At this moment, Cui Ze's [champion heart] was already burning, phenylethylamine, norepinephrine, dopamine and endorphins gushed out like a spring, and his eyes were full of love and desire for the Summoner's Cup.

Photographer Yicun keenly captured this scene and recorded it in his camera.

If nothing unexpected happens, this shot of Cui Ze looking at the Summoner's Trophy affectionately should be placed by Yicun in an album called "Dream Chasing Boy".

Perhaps this photo will not be made public until one day in the future, when the protagonist of the photo, Cui Ze, leaves the competitive stage sadly, or when Draymond Green successfully lifts the Summoner's Cup.

As for now, the boy’s dream-chasing journey has just begun!
In addition to all the Gen.G members who returned the Summoner's Cup, representatives from the top 16 teams in the group stage also came to the scene.

G2 mid laner PerkZ, AFS top laner Kiin, Gen.G jungler Ambition, RNG shooter Uzi, IG mid laner Rookie, FNC mid laner Caps, etc.

What was surprising about this segment was that this was clearly the home court of the Korean LCK, but when Kim Yong-jun introduced the representative players of the top 16 teams, Uzi's voice was obviously higher than that of the previous Gen.G jungler Ambition, and even the subsequent players could not surpass Uzi's voice.

In fact, this phenomenon is normal. After all, Uzi has won the LPL Spring Split, MSI Mid-Season Championship Invitational, Jakarta Asian Games League of Legends exhibition event, and LPL Summer Split championship and FMVP.

At this point in time and at this time, a large number of League of Legends players and viewers around the world believe that RNG, with Uzi as the core, can continue their dominance this season and win the final global finals championship trophy.

But no one expected that this seemingly invincible RNG, this little fat guy who seemed to be leading the team to win the first S championship trophy for LPL, would lose to the seemingly weakest G2 on the road to the top eight.

That smile will last until 2024.

The process is so funny and the ending is so absurd, just like a bubble that bursts with a poke, leaving only a mess on the ground.

In the game between KT and TL, Choi Ze only watched for less than 5 minutes before slipping back to the backcourt.

It is true that watching a game live is very exciting, but this kind of excitement can easily confuse one's mind.

When I returned to the lounge, I saw Ren Dong sitting on the sofa, watching the live broadcast intently. He had a cue card and a ballpoint pen in his hands, and he would write something on them from time to time.

"Brother Dong, what did you write down? Let me see too." As he said this, Cui Ze naturally sat down next to Ren Dong and stretched his neck to take a look at the cue card.

"I didn't remember anything, I just wrote down a few important moments during the game, and then thought about the questions to ask in the interview around these moments, and made preparations in advance." Ren Dong generously handed him the cue card. This generosity was not only based on Cui Ze being his Korean translation partner today, but also based on the limited edition black Aixi cigarettes Cui Ze gave him when they met in the morning, which was equivalent to more than RMB 550.

The young man is not only polite and popular in the circle, but also sensible and knows how to give gifts. Who wouldn't be greeted with a smile?

Cui Ze looked at the cue card for a few seconds and then returned it. There was no point in looking at these things for him. After all, the translation was real-time and no one knew what answers the contestants would give.

Ren Dong continued to watch the live broadcast and take notes. When he entered the boring line switching operation period, he did not forget to speak up and make a few points:
"If KT wins later, you can come with me to the interview area to help translate. If TL wins, you can rest here for a while, or go out to the bathroom, buy drinks, etc."

"Okay." Cui Zejian agreed without saying anything more.

But it was this state that made Ren Dong feel very comfortable.

The opening match between KT and TL ended at 32 minutes and 50 seconds. In the early stage, TL caused a lot of trouble to KT, and was always ahead in the number of dragons.

But KT is the No. 1 seed of LCK after all, and its strength is still quite strong. Its operational ability is more than one level stronger than TL. In the end, it won the defense battle as the host.

"Let's go, it's time to prepare for the interview. I don't know which contestant will be interviewed next."

Ren Dong patted Cui Ze on the shoulder, and they both stood up and walked towards the interview area.

"I guess it's Mata."

"Then I guess Deft."

"."

After arriving at the interview area and waiting for a moment, Mata, who was wearing black-framed glasses and looked like the host Big Quail, lifted the curtain and came in.

After a little preparation, the director conveyed the message to Jide and Guan Zeyuan in the commentary booth. Soon the commentary booth completed the post-match summary and the camera shifted to the interview booth.

Then within a few seconds, in the live broadcast rooms of the global finals on various domestic platforms, the number of barrages suddenly increased sharply.

[No, who are you, buddy? ]

[Wa Qu, changed the translator? This guy is quite handsome and said yes! 】

[Oh my god, isn't this the Korean server's top Akali Veronica? Why didn't she live stream and come here? ]

[Who knows, family members? A certain anchor went to Korea to be a translator without saying anything, but none of his fans knew about it. It's really stupid! ]

[My husband is so handsome! My husband is so handsome! My husband is so handsome! ]

[Qiaoduo Madai! How did the two identities of e-sports player interview translator appear on the same person at the same time? ? ! ! ]

[We don’t have that many fans, and we haven’t heard that he can speak Korean.]

[Brothers, this is definitely a joke. If he can translate Mata's words clearly today, I will eat the computer screen during live broadcast!!!]
