Chapter 855 Business! Kick-off with Zhiyan (Thanks to Youyou for the leader reward)
January 24th, except that it was a bit cold outside, the weather was not bad.
Sitting in a nanny car, Lin Cheng was a little listless.
It was originally a rare weekend, but he was forced to open for business.
Today, Lin Cheng will kick off the KT Wizards baseball team's second round home game of the playoffs.
It is not unusual for the club to be owned by KT. Mr. Dai attended KT baseball team activities in 2018.
In fact, the Korean Baseball League has already entered the offseason at this time in previous years, but due to the epidemic this year, it was suspended for a long time, and it was already very late when it restarted.
Originally, the Korean Professional Baseball League could be completed in December even in this way. However, when entering the playoffs, players were found to be infected after the game, causing the league to be interrupted again.
It was so stumbling that the Korean Professional Baseball League was unusually delayed until January.
After all, the Scottish Premier League's practice of issuing championship trophies in advance based on points midway through the game is still not suitable for baseball, and the epidemic is not serious enough to announce that the remaining games will not be played.
Under this special background, the Korean Professional Baseball League has launched a new publicity stunt.
Because of your love, let baseball accompany you through the Spring Festival!
Indeed, the Spring Festival is still twenty days away. According to the best-of-five and best-of-seven games starting from the second round of the baseball playoffs, if the game is full, the championship may not be decided until New Year's Eve.
"Miss Sheng Xi, is it really not because I'm cheap that you asked me to come?"
Hearing Lin Cheng's words, the woman next to him almost laughed out loud.
She is the operations assistant of KT Club Ji Shengxi. She just transferred from the parent company of KT Culture and Sports this year to participate in the operation of the club.
"It's really not true. In fact, your activity fee is not cheap. In fact, the club doesn't want you to come. It is strongly requested by the company."
"Oh...then what happened to Zhiyan?"
Park Ji-yeon is going to tee off with Lin Cheng today, and Lin Cheng knew about it two days ago.
"I don't know, maybe it would be more topical if you tee off together?"
"Isn't it really because of Xu Soo and Lee Sun Mi's show? You even copied this one?"
Chi Shengxi waved his hand, "No! Don't talk nonsense. This is not copied. This is the itinerary that was decided long ago."
Two days ago, DK officially released the program recorded by Heo Soo and Sunmi, and KT immediately asked Lin Cheng and Park Jiyeon to collaborate.
It's hard for Lin Cheng not to suspect that KT's operations are copying the work of its competitors.
KT Wizards' home court is in Suwon City, which is only more than fifty kilometers away from the base in Seoul. At one o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Cheng followed Ji Shengxi to arrive outside the Wizards' home court.
Lin Cheng and Chi Shengxi went out to have lunch first, and while eating, they sent a message to ask Park Ji-yeon.
As a result, Park Ji-yeon said that she had arrived and was undergoing makeup.
"Sister, I'm so hungry. Can you bring me a meal? I don't want to eat bread."
"What do you want to eat?"
"hot pot."
"(Horrified) Are you kidding me? Just kill me."
"Haha! I lied to you, bring me soup and rice."
"OK."
"And...does this event really have nothing to do with you?"
From Jiyeon's point of view, her current popularity in Korea is not enough for KT to invite KT to the kick-off, and she thought it was Lin Cheng's fault.
Although she has participated in the recording of popular variety shows since the end of last year, and her personal Youtube channel is now a good subscription, but after all, the South Korean little deaf shrimp has not wanted to see them for several years.
KT Wizards is not a strong player in the Korean Professional Baseball League, and it did not even win any Korean Professional Baseball playoffs before this season.
But benefiting from the attention of baseball, KT Wizards can be regarded as the biological son of KT Group. Since its establishment 15 years ago, every KT spokesperson has played for the KT Wizards.
This year, KT finally entered the playoffs and reached the second round. It can be said that this is the most important round of competition since the team was founded. Logically speaking, KT should find its own spokesperson to kick off the game.
There are several popular celebrities among KT's spokespersons now. As a result, in such an important game for KT Wizards, Lin Cheng and Park Ji-yeon were left to kick off the game.
"I already told you that this has nothing to do with me. I originally planned to sleep in with my girlfriend at home today, but I ended up wasting a lot of time coming here to tee off with you."
Seeing Lin Cheng's reply, the touch of emotion in Zhiyan's heart immediately dissipated.
"Ah! Are you feeling aggrieved by having to tee off with your sister?"
"Hahahaha... The phone is out of battery, bye."
Lin Cheng decisively put down his cell phone and buried himself in his meal.
After dinner, Lin Cheng packed a beef soup rice for Park Zhiyan.
Although it is the most important stage of the Korean Professional Baseball playoffs, due to the epidemic, only one-tenth of the seats are open at the stadium, and the flow of people is not large. Lin Cheng saw in the dressing room that he had just put on makeup and was eating bread.
Park Ji-yeon.
"Hurry up! I'm starving."
Seeing the soup and rice in Lin Cheng's hand, Pu Zhiyan immediately threw away the bread in her hand.
After Park Ji-yeon finished eating, the two performed simple exercises at the indoor training ground behind.
Park Ji-yeon pitched and Im Sung batted.
What surprised Lin Cheng was that Park Ji-yeon's pitching was actually decent.
Although it is still too difficult for her to throw into the strike zone, her pitching speed is not bad. Lin Cheng estimates it to be around 70. She is worthy of being a member of the powerful women's team.
"You can't believe it? I kicked the ball for the Twins ten years ago."
After being proud for only a minute, she found that her pitches were always accurately hit by Lin Cheng. Park Ji-yeon began to work hard to increase the intensity of the pitches. After a while, she was panting from exhaustion.
The staff next to me quickly tried to dissuade them. They were just practicing a little bit and didn't let them do it for real.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, under the introduction of the host, the two stood on the baseball field and greeted the audience first.
Then, Im Sung wore thick equipment and a helmet and picked up a baseball bat and stood in the batter's box. Park Ji-yeon, wearing a KT Wizards jersey, stood a little in front of the pitcher's box.
Although not many of the live audience knew Lin Cheng, many KT fans were waiting for Lin Cheng's appearance in front of the live broadcast screen.
Various barrages of support for Lin Cheng and Park Ji-yeon were overwhelming.
Due to the need to take care of the female guests, girls were not allowed to stand on the pitching plate to pitch the ball at kickoffs, and Park Ji-yeon did not stand too far away.
Jiyan's slender legs were wrapped in jeans, and she bent one knee to imitate a pitcher's posture. With her right foot touching the ground, Jiyan threw the baseball in her hand with all her strength.
This ball clearly did not enter the strike zone.
But out of politeness, usually the batter would swing the bat no matter what direction the ball was thrown by the kickoff guest. Lin Cheng made a slight adjustment this time, and swung the bat sharply after seeing the incoming ball.
when!
There was an obvious sound, and the ball flew high and landed on the edge of the outfield after a long time.
The audience at the scene exclaimed and gave a very warm cheer.
How outrageous!
If Park Ji-yeon pitched harder, Lin Sung would have hit a home run.
The catcher squatting next to Lin Cheng was stunned, but Pu Zhiyan happily ran over and raised her palms.
"Lin Cheng."
Seeing her gesture, Lin Cheng subconsciously gave her a high-five.
"yeah!"
At this time, Lin Cheng reacted and held down Park Ji-yeon who was cheering.
"Hey! We are rivals, why are you celebrating?"
"yeah?"
Zhiyan looked confused.
The audience watching through the live broadcast was laughing like crazy.
