After the DAGA game ended in the evening, Gao Lin and Xiao Zifeng went to have supper with Zeng Wenfeng and other domestic commentators. Since there was a Huayi Star game tomorrow at noon, Gao Lin and Xiao did not dare to delay too late. After eating supper, they He and Xiao Zifeng hurriedly returned to the team and settled in the hotel to rest.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, Gao Lin woke up, washed up, had breakfast with everyone in Lu Hai, and headed to the training room as soon as the team members were gone.
The game doesn't start until 1:30, and while there are still two or three hours left, they can warm up in the training room and get familiar with the feel, so that they won't feel too stiff when they go on the court later.
After just over an hour of training, the competition staff arrived and asked them to go in and adjust the machines to see if there was anything inappropriate. They should make adjustments in advance to avoid problems that would affect the game later. The process has now reached the quarterfinals of the finals. The competition team has very strict requirements on all aspects. After all, the quarterfinals are different from the previous promotion rounds.
If nothing else, there is a big difference in the live media alone. For example, in the quarter-finals, the media that come to live broadcast are just the national media of the two sides. However, when it comes to the quarter-finals, the e-sports media that come to live broadcast But there is no other reason for all countries to gather together. Those who can enter the top eight of this finals should be the top teams in the world's e-sports circle in the future. Faced with this kind of peak showdown, no country is willing to let go of this opportunity to live broadcast. .
Since e-sports media from all over the world are coming to broadcast the event live, the organizers will naturally have to be cautious and strive to create a grand e-sports feast, thereby increasing the popularity and influence of the event.
Following the team members to the contestant area that had been arranged, Gao Lin and the others carefully checked the machines they selected. After finding that there were no problems, they followed Lu Hai back to the hotel where the team was staying for lunch.
After lunch, the team members hurried to the Toyota Sports Center and took their seats in the player area under the arrangements of the competition staff.
In this quarter-finals, the players arranged by Lu Hai are the same as those in the promotion competition, namely Gao Lin, Xiao Zifeng, Su Jiantong, Guo Haoran, and Yang Tianshui.
Although he still failed to play, Zhang Weiyong did not complain at all. Instead, he sat next to him and continued to encourage everyone in Gao Lin.
On the stage, the two male and female hosts chatted in English for a few minutes, and then suddenly called out Gao Lin's opponent, the AFB team.
After listening, a pretty girl led five Korean contestants onto the stage.
It has to be said that Koreans have some unique ideas about makeup. Like the two young men standing on the left, they are ugly-looking, but once they look at their clothes, hairstyle, and face powder, they are quite unique. Xiu, it was as if he had received Sun Hou's seventy-two transformations, and almost his whole person had changed.
Following the introduction of the two male and female hosts, the five Korean Abbas (brothers) also made various consciously handsome moves, which immediately attracted hundreds of Korean male and female fans in the audience to scream and shout. Some fanatical female fans even He stood up from his seat and howled like a slaughtering pig at the top of his lungs.
In this situation, Gao Lin couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The popularity of e-sports in South Korea is not ordinary. It is like a large-scale sports competition. In contrast, compared with other people, domestic e-sports is not only inferior. Two or three times, I don’t know when domestic e-sports will develop to the level that others have.
To be honest, there is no shortage of e-sports talents in China, such as Xiao Zifeng, the all-powerful world e-sports king, Luohua Tingyu, the equally dominant e-sports king, Leng Wuya, Song Qiaoyu, Jing Yisen, Zhang Zhouda, etc. Quietness is a kind of beauty, PBSYToke and many other talented players. It can be said that if domestic e-sports can develop and become brilliant, more talented players will rise.
Domestic e-sports has only developed for nearly ten years and has become the fourth largest e-sports country in the world. This in itself is enough to reflect the extraordinary potential of domestic e-sports. It is no exaggeration to say that if domestic e-sports truly rises, let alone It is South Korea, even Europe and the United States, it is difficult to compete.
Of course, it is not that difficult for domestic e-sports to rise. Among them, domestic concepts are one of the most important influencing factors. Today, 10% of Chinese parents regard e-sports as a game to play with. , if it is okay for children to play casually occasionally, if they want to treat it as a career, I am afraid that no parent will agree. After all, not many people who take the e-sports path in China are successful, and parents have not seen too many people. With such a successful example, how can you let your children gamble their future on this e-sports trail that has never seen the light of day?
This cannot be blamed on the short-sightedness of the parents. After all, people are real. They have to eat, sleep, and have emotions. No parent does not want their children to live a better life and have a brighter future.
After the five Korean contestants introduced each other, the two male and female hosts mentioned Huayi Star's name again.
Knowing that it was their turn to take the stage, Gao Lin's five contestants stood up from their seats one after another and followed Xiang Huidi towards the stage.
To Gao Lin's surprise, when they stepped onto the stage, many people in the audience cheered, and several foreign audience members even held up Xiao Zifeng's personal photos.
The six people stood in a line, and soon the two male and female hosts turned around and read the information of Gao Lin's five contestants one by one, looking for the information that the competition party had already given.
"Huayi Star, this team, I think many friends will be unfamiliar with, but I believe most of the people here know a person from their team. Yes, he is the triple crown champion of WCG and was once popular. The world’s e-sports genius, Max.” Turning to look at the big screen, the beautiful female host introduced Xiao Zifeng in an extremely provocative manner.
Xiao Zifeng waved his hand humbly towards the audience. He was not too cool or anything, but even so, there were still waves of fanatical whistles and shouts in the audience. Xiao Zifeng is a legend in the e-sports circle. , whether at home or abroad, his reputation is unparalleled.
The beautiful female host briefly introduced Xiao Zifeng, and the handsome male host then introduced Yang Tianshui who was standing next to Xiao Zifeng. Compared with Xiao Zifeng's sensational words, the two hosts then introduced Gao Lin and the four others. Very bland.
It's not surprising that the four of them, Gao Lin, are now completely unknown. In the United States, a country where strength is respected, without fame and honor, how can they get the corresponding respect.
After the two hosts introduced Gao Lin and everyone, they said a few words to each other, and then asked Gao Lin and everyone to go to the contestants area to prepare for the competition.
