“Do you really not know what’s going on in the LCK now?!”
The OGN director wearing glasses threw the documents at the two of them with a cold face.
The documents were scattered and still shaking slightly.
Just like their hearts, they hit rock bottom.
"When I first took over the LCK, the LCK was still the first division. We were able to export a large amount of Korean aid every year, and it was just around the corner to create another national business card for South Korea."
"But what about now?"
"Two years, two years!"
“Since Emperor left the LCK, our LCK has had no success in international competitions!”
"There are so many runners-up and so many semi-finalists. What's the use of wearing suits and ties every day?"
"What we want is a championship, a championship!"
"Xiba!"
The OGN director was really angry.
Are these people fighting among themselves all the time? Now that the LCK has not won any honors for such a long time, doesn’t he see that this intercontinental competition system is more beneficial to the LCK?
But what about this group of people?
This is the time to compete for regional honors!
I won't tolerate your nonsense.
I called these two coaches today because in the training match organized by OGN, these two teams were not serious at all and did not show anything.
Hide! Hide!
Just thinking about hiding things!
Do you have a sense of the overall situation?
How can you keep hiding your achievements and circumstances?
"Lee Goo Jae."
OGN director Lee Min Hyuk vented his anger and coldly shouted the name of SKT's new head coach.
Lee Goo Jae's body trembled and his head bowed even lower.
"director."
"Do you remember what you told me then?"
Lee Min Hyuk took off his glasses, wiped them slowly, lowered his head and asked.
He raised his head slightly, his eyes were clear and eagle-eyed, and he spoke quietly,
"Don't make things difficult for me."
Lee Goo Jae almost collapsed on the ground, sweating profusely, and could only nod.
"Chi Dongxu."
Lee Min Hyuk turned to look at the other coach.
"Tell me, what are you doing?"
"At this time, instead of sharing the chairman's worries, you actually make him angry. Have your brains been eaten by pigs?"
"Yes, I'm sorry, director!"
The new SSG assistant coach lowered his head and said shivering.
"get out."
Lee Min Hyuk waved his hand, feeling bored.
The two looked at each other and walked out of the room cautiously.
He opened the curtains, and with the sound of a lighter clicking, faint smoke drifted away, and Seoul was full of excitement in the night sky.
After thinking for a moment, he took out his Samsung phone and called.
The expression on his face became much more respectful.
"...It's me, Chairman."
The voice on the other end of the phone was a little old, but still had a calm and powerful feel.
"Has it been dealt with?"
"Yes, there are some ineffective things. I have already warned you."
"I can rest assured that you will do the work."
After a pause,
"I hope there won't be a day when you let me down."
"Yes, Chairman!"
"President Park Ji-moon is watching you."
"There is no room for failure in the intercontinental competition."
The chairman said calmly,
"Time is sensitive, so we need to be prepared. Are you ready to send the things to Vice President Zheng and Vice President Sun?"
Lee Min Hyuk held his breath and nodded seriously,
"Don't worry, Chairman, we are ready."
"very good."
After a short silence, the chairman suddenly asked.
"Minhyuk."
"Yes, I'm here."
"You didn't betray us, did you?"
"You are worrying too much, Chairman."
Lee Min Hyuk's eyes flickered for a moment, and he still replied respectfully.
"Very good, go and have a rest."
"yes!"
A busy signal came from the phone, and Lee Min Hyuk knew that the chairman had hung up the phone.
He had a calm expression on his face and turned off his phone.
After a long time, a low chuckle came.
"Old thing..."
President of the Korean E-Sports Association?
This location...
I might as well sit down for a while.
Seoul outside the window is still bright and beautiful.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it’s time to set off.
The venue for this intercontinental competition is Kaohsiung, Taiwan Province.
Not far, not close.
After getting off the plane, Xu Ruoguang's first feeling was:
This is too much!
Kaohsiung shouldn’t be a small city here anymore, right?
Why can airports be so rubbish?
Not to mention compared to the magic city or the capital, even compared to most first-tier cities, it is far behind.
Not to mention the airport in New York.
Ah Shui hit Ha Qie down with the same expression as him.
"Why so small?"
Well, this person said it directly.
Seeing the staff member responsible for responding getting closer and closer, Xu Ruoguang pushed him.
"Talk less."
Ah Shui nodded a little confused.
Although I don’t know why Brother Guang said this, I just listened.
"Let's go, go to the hotel with them first."
kkoma held her small notebook and pushed up her glasses.
Xu Ruoguang nodded. This team includes all players and training teams from IP, EDG, RNG, and WE.
It’s better to go to the hotel and settle down first.
All the way on the special bus, Xiaowu looked at the scenery outside the window quietly, feeling a little disappointed.
Although it is not stated clearly, the two words are basically written on other people's faces.
That's it?
Compared to the Magic City, this place is really dilapidated.
Although it is not a third-tier city, it is really no problem to say that it is around a second-tier city.
"Why don't you speak?"
Uzi, who was sitting next to him, unceremoniously took away the Wangzai milk Xu Ruoguang put in front of him and put it into his mouth.
Xu Ruoguang glanced at it silently and drank his milk quietly.
"Say what?"
"Hey, let me tell you, this stuff is really delicious. I'll ask Shi Senming to bring me two boxes to the base one day."
Uzi smacked his lips.
"You want to eat whatever I eat."
Xu Ruoguang replied angrily.
Maybe this is the idol effect. Ever since Xu Ruoguang's love for drinking Wangzai milk was known to the players of other teams, everyone started drinking Wangzai very consciously.
The two-time champion is a passionate endorsement!
Most of the time, he is holding on to the idea that he can win two crowns by drinking Wangzi, so maybe we can too...right?
Although rationality tells them that it is probably useless, but drinking is not a drink. Come on, let’s try it.
"hey-hey."
Uzi smiled,
"In the group stage, just watch my buddy shoot the Korean team and that's it."
"I'm telling you, my brother is full of confidence now."
"So confident?"
"That's for sure."
"Can Xia play?"
Uzi was stunned for a moment,
"How can you not know how to play this thing? It's not difficult."
"Can I win the competition?"
Xu Ruoguang's calm eyes fell on his face with a playful smile.
The meaning is obvious.
"I really... can't take it."
Uzi sighed.
After playing so many training matches, everyone knows the situation thoroughly, and there is nothing to hide.
"To be honest, I don't think it's appropriate."
Xu Ruoguang patted Ah Shui beside him,
"Ah Shui knows all the skills, and your talent is no worse than his. Why is it so difficult to practice?"
"That's not the problem."
Uzi looked a little depressed,
"I just don't feel like it's enough."
He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he said softly,
"RNG's problem cannot be solved by just Xia."
"I have so many. If you say you can't get them on the court, it's impossible. I've already won them in training matches with you."
"But, it's not enough."
Uzi sighed.
"I'll take Lucian the rat, I'll take the policewoman, I'll take the skateboard shoes, I'm confident that I'm absolutely C."
"But Xia is different. This hero can only grow steadily in the early stage. If I want to kill in the lane, my current proficiency is not enough."
"Without being able to exert so much economic suppression and laning suppression, Xayah is not that important to me."
"If RNG wants to win, in this bot lane version, I have to go to C."
"My Kasumi is not enough."
Uzi's look was a little tired, which was something he had never said to anyone else.
To put it bluntly, if RNG doesn’t count on Uzi, who does it count on?
Uzuna Xia, can RNG beat Xia's system?
It’s not just about playing.
It is impossible for a professional AD to be completely incapable of playing this kind of thing.
If RNG wants to win, Uzi must exert absolute pressure on the line, play a fast pushing rhythm, and use a three-piece suit to defeat the opponent's two-piece suit, with four in a row.
Doesn’t Uzi know that this style of play is abnormal?
The audience can see it, but the players can’t?
impossible.
However, when it comes to change, it is not that simple.
Drink poison to quench thirst.
These are the four words that came to Xu Ruoguang's mind.
This is RNG now.
At any time, changes in a team's playing style are a major event, and they don't just change.
But the problem is that there is not much time left for RNG.
They also failed to win the championship in the spring split. The competition in the summer split was so fierce that it was unclear whether they would go to the World Championship or not.
Dare to change?
Things have changed, if we lose in a row, we might have to play in the bubble game.
If you don't win the battle with Bubble, send it, and the whole year will be in vain.
Uzi himself was hesitant, not to mention the rest of RNG.
What can Xu Ruoguang say about this situation?
He could only pat Uzi on the shoulder with relief,
"Have you ever thought that if you don't bring Xia out, you will be the one who takes the blame when the time comes?"
If you lose four guarantees and one loses, then there must be something wrong with one.
You can tell who you are scolding at a glance.
Uzi smiled.
"You guys have been fighting for so many years. If you want to scold me, just scold me."
"Losing only means that I'm not strong enough."
"I just don't have the ability to lead RNG to the World Championship finals. This is my problem."
Uzi's desire to win is extremely strong, even to the point of discomfort.
Xu Ruoguang suddenly thought of an incident that made a lot of noise some time ago.
Xiao Ming was broadcasting live, and Uzi couldn't help but complain.
"Live broadcasting every day, I'm so fucking bad and still live broadcasting, and I have to lose the training match at night, I'm really convinced."
He didn't say anything to anyone, he simply complained.
Then Uzi was scolded miserably.
GSL was so fierce that Uzi was scolded for following it.
Anyway, as long as Uzi is involved in anything, Uzi will be scolded.
QG one minute BO5 midfielder breakup?
They are just domestic slaves with the third surname of Wuzi.
RNG has no intention of crying about not having any games?
Uzi is just using his strength to overwhelm others.
The public opinion is like this. If Uzi didn't win the championship, it would be wrong to say 10,000 words.
Xu Ruoguang had known this for a long time, he just hoped that Wu Zi would also look away.
Professional players still have to rely on their results to speak for themselves.
Xu Ruoguang doesn't hate people like Uzi. He may be different in a million ways, but at least he is really serious about his career and championship.
A hard-working player like Xu Ruoguang really doesn't have any dislike for players with a strong desire to win.
It's better than players who are satisfied with themselves after reaching the semi-finals, right?
Although he doesn’t think Uzi can beat him, this does not prevent Xu Ruoguang from appreciating his pursuit of the championship.
Because Xu Ruoguang is also this kind of person.
It's just that he succeeded.
If he loses in the World Championships, he will be scolded as much as he gave the camera the middle finger in the finals.
"Why are you so crazy? You are so crazy that you think you have won the championship!"
"You're laughing so hard, are you pretending?"
"With this little strength? Pretending to be cool is a good thing, so let's pop the champagne!"
This is eSports.
If you lose, breathing is wrong.
Win? Nothing happens, your farts taste good.
After arriving at the hotel, I only rested for an afternoon when I was informed that I had to go for an interview.
Xu Ruoguang:?
There was some confusion on his face, and his eyebrows wrinkled.
"Isn't this too fast?"
"How can anyone go to interview as soon as they arrive?"
kkoma sighed,
"I heard that the schedule was not very long, so I had to go directly."
Xu Ruoguang put on his coat and exhaled.
"Let's go."
The series of interviews ended, and it was already eleven o'clock in the night when it was Xu Ruoguang's turn.
This is also the biggest reason for Xu Ruoguang's disgust.
In the past, a day was reserved for interviews, starting at noon.
You haven't eaten dinner since six o'clock in the afternoon and called the contestants for interviews. Are you sick?
Moreover, why are only those from LPL doing the interview?
What about the rest?
Xu Ruoguang was confused.
Didi didi!
A voice came from WeChat.
Xu Ruoguang took out his cell phone, took a look at it, and smiled.
kkoma: “The person responsible for arranging the interview session is the staff from LCK.”
Oh, that's okay.
This intercontinental competition is co-organized by three divisions, and each section is responsible for different divisions.
LPL and LCK are responsible for equipment and referees, and LMS is responsible for venue planning and arrangements.
The LPL and LMS did not take over the pre-game and post-game interviews, so they were handed over to the LCK?
His expression became sharp.
Want to disgust us?
Wait!
"Emperor player, it's your turn to interview."
The Kaohsiung staff member spoke out, Xu Ruoguang stood up, his expression was calm, his eyes lost their sharpness, and he nodded.
When I walked into the interview room, I saw a female host who looked very Korean.
She smiled,
"Hello, Emperor player."
Although my Chinese is not particularly standard, I can still be considered fluent.
Xu Ruoguang nodded and sat in the interview seat.
The initial problem is pretty normal.
Ask Xu Ruoguang what he thinks of the intercontinental competition.
But then something went wrong.
"So for this intercontinental competition, the IP should also have some arrangements, right? Can you share it with us?"
A contemptuous smile appeared on the young man's face. He leaned back on his seat and his eyes became sharp.
"You want me to reveal our tactics?"
"How could it be? The Emperor player is too worried."
The female host's smile remained unchanged, but she was secretly feeling regretful in her heart.
Why does this player react so quickly?
"Really? OK, I refuse to answer this question, okay?"
"OK."
The female host smiled and nodded,
"So, last question, what is your goal for this intercontinental competition?"
Xu Ruoguang smiled brightly, and his smile was very contagious.
"Goal? Only championship."
"Because, I always feel that the runner-up is nothing, and only the champion can become famous."
"I will give the LCK team a painful memory."
"Maybe if I lose, my words will be ridiculed by many people."
Xu Ruoguang paused,
"I won't be afraid."
he said with a smile.
"If you are afraid, you will lose your whole life."
[Does anyone know who to pay tribute to in the last interview? This is also a classic battle, a mortal body versus a god]
