-247- The eve of the group stage
After getting the director's comments and asking for emails, sitting in a cafe in Paris, Tang Xiaotang turned around and asked, "Xiao Zi, what do you think is my inner demon?"
The idea of director MV is written clearly in the email, which is the story of the contestants overcoming the evil deeds of their inner demons and finally reborn on the field. Although it is not a subject that the audience is willing to read, it is indeed easy for the contestants to empathize with.
Just talking about the inner demon... Tang Xiaotang thought about it very seriously, but still couldn't think of any competition that made him feel regretful.
After all, as a newcomer who debuted this year, she has won all the honors she can win. The LCCS Spring and Summer Championships, and the MSI Championships have also won. Although it is not the kind of crushing game that swept the teammates three to zero, but defeated IG three to two to win, but the inner demons must not be said - you can't say, "I regret not sending IG three to zero happiness away"? The rookie is on the shooting site!
"Isn't this a problem that you only know?" Chen Zilan took a sip of coffee and tilted her head to wonder.
"I can't think of it." Tang Xiaotang sighed, "Maybe this is the loneliness of a master, there is no regret... Why did I have such a perfect birth? Alas!"
Is it worth 1.5 meters tall to sigh at this? Chen Zilan looked at her speechlessly, but she didn't want to make it clear, so she stretched out her hand and touched Tang Xiaotang's head, meaningfully saying: "How about this?"
"This?" Tang Xiaotang blinked, but didn't react.
"That's it, this-ah!" Chen Zilan touched Tang Xiaotang's head again, with the tone elongated, and a crazy hint.
"…?" Tang Xiaotang was still a little confused, but soon realized something and murmured, "So that's it...so it's it!"
"Do you understand?" Chen Zilan looked at her unexpectedly. It shouldn't be, she just had a stupid personality. If she really understood that she was hinting that she had short legs, she would probably quarrel with her in dissatisfaction, right? Finally, she ended with words like "I'm still young", "I will grow five centimeters tall next year", "You can wait for me" and so on.
Why is the reaction so calm?
Did you think it was easy?
She was a little confused. When she saw Tang Xiaotang typing on the keyboard to write an email to her laptop, she immediately stretched her head over from the side, intending to peek at the content of the email.
Then she saw Daimao Jing writing seriously such as "My biggest inner demon is myself" and "I can win the championship as long as I defeat myself."
"..." Chen Zilan.
It turns out that I am thinking too much.
Finally, after Tang Xiaotang insisted on making a desperate decision, the MV director actually agreed to this request, which Chen Zilan had completely unexpected.
Because both rookie and faker have been selected, they correspond to a more regrettable game, which is quite normal. However, when Tang Xiaotang comes to defeat him, I am the inner demon... The difference in personality is really a bit big.
However, in the opinion of the mv director, there is no big problem.
On the one hand, Xiao Dongzao's career is too short and it is smooth sailing. Even if you find a lost game as a demon, you will not find a standard. This kind of game must be of great significance. The audience covers the global international competition, right? That's only MSI. But in MSI, the group stage is not that important and not included in the consideration, and the only thing that can be considered is SKT three to zero and defeated IG three to two. Which one jumped out and said it was a demon, which is far-fetched.
On the other hand, the performance effect will not be disturbed.
After all, defeating the inner demon is to defeat himself, Lisangzhuo of rookie and Fanzima of Faker, just embodying a certain game with regrets in reality.
Although Xiao Dongzao did not have such a game, it did not prevent her from defeating herself. It was just that when it was concrete, others chose heroes from the games that left regrets, but Xiao Dongzao chose heroes from the games that they won. Of course, in the end, it was not surprising that he chose the natal hero Akali.
Soon, in mid-September, the MV began to shoot officially. The process lasted about a week, and it took another half a month later. The film was not officially released until October 9th. The finalists were all finished when they were released, which was indeed slower than last year's "rise". However, "rise" was an animated MV that had been produced long ago, and "Nirvana" was filmed temporarily in September, so it was understandable that production took more time.
Immediately after watching the MV content, whether it is the LPL audience or the LCS audience, after watching it, there are only two words to describe Zaozi Sister, that is, the arrangement.
That's right, there are really too many placings. Not to mention that in MV, Sister Zaozi always occupies the C position in the middle of the three (actually because she is short). Her selection of people alone is different from others - Brother Li's fan mother and Lisangzhuo of the broiler can find the prototype from the World Championship, and they are all full of regrets. As a result, Xiao Dongzao was Akali who never lost.
Not to mention fighting each other, Xiao Dongzao and the inner demon finally shook hands behind MV. No one believed that she was not the protagonist of MV.
"As soon as Sister Zaozi appeared, I wanted to laugh, hahaha, so cute."
"My wife is so awesome. The official MV protagonist position is too sequel, right?"
"What if it's poisonous milk?"
"You said that..."
The audience talked a lot.
Originally in the normal world line, LPL audiences had an objection to the mv of "Nirvana" - how great "rise" last year was, it was both mesmerizing and cool. Finally, LPL won the championship and also had a handsome animated mv such as "rise". Isn't it good to tell the story of the mountain-winning team? Why did such a simple MV that made Caps look like the protagonist of the mv... My mountain-winning team was so unreachable?
However, after Tang Xiaotang snatched the C position of "Nirvana" that originally belonged to Caps, this opinion suddenly became much smaller.
After all, the official has given your wife a C position, so what else is there to be dissatisfied with?
Besides, because Tang Xiaotang was stubborn on the set, and tortured the relationship between the director and the guys in the late stage, the whole work in the entire MV was much more than the original film, and it was filled with a lot of memes on the MSI this year, which further led to the audience's opinions and the increase in praise. In a sense, Tang Xiaotang was purifying the comment area by relying on his own efforts.
...
In addition to the release of MV, October 9 itself is also the last day of the finalists.
After the finalists, the fourth team of each group finally settled. For example, in the group D where TL is located, in addition to DWG and IG, the fourth team is AHQ in the LMS competition area.
Of course, from the perspective of paper strength, this D group itself should be of little suspense - TL is likely to be the first to qualify in the group, AHQ is likely to be the fourth in the group. As for whether the second to ign or dwg in the group, it depends on the competition between them.
However, contrary to the views of the LCS audience, the coach and Tang Xiaotang himself are not so optimistic about the group stage prediction.
After all, there is always a big difference between the teams in the World Championship and their performance in their respective leagues.
There are version adaptations and learning and evolution.
It was like in the original world line, all three teams of LK appeared first in the group, but later they were all cold. G2 was obviously the MSI champion, but it was only the second in Group A, but the Little Phoenix, who could not even beat JT, could laugh to the end.
Chapter completed!
