In the afternoon of October 13, local time, the Chicago Theater was already overcrowded.
With a time difference of 13 hours, the country is still in pre-dawn darkness at this time, while the sun has not yet set here in Chicago.
After two days of rest, Zhou Dongsheng and others' jet lag problem has been solved and they have perfectly integrated into the local schedule.
Today, the Chicago Theater is about to start the first game of the quarterfinals of the 2016 League of Legends Global Finals, with SSG playing C9.
After all, Chicago is the home stadium of North America. It is just right for C9, the host team, to kick off the opening game of the quarterfinals. Even the vast majority of the spectators present are here to support the home team.
Both inside and outside the theater were plunged into a sea of joy. At this time, a group of people led by Zhou Dongsheng and Principal Wang were walking into the competition scene with great interest, feeling the warm atmosphere of the competition.
"How's it going? The atmosphere is good, but I believe that when we hold the Chicken World Invitational Tournament, the atmosphere will definitely not be any worse than here..."
Principal Wang said cheerfully.
"It's indeed good. After all, their world competition has gone through its sixth year. If we compete with others right from the beginning, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to others?"
After two days, Zhou Dongsheng had basically adapted to the atmosphere of this foreign country. Although there was a language barrier, the presence of Li Jiana, a personal assistant who was proficient in foreign languages, did not affect him at all.
After all, Zhou Dongsheng is the only one who has this problem. Principal Wang seems to be "uneducated and incompetent", but at least he studied in England and is a top student in the philosophy department of the University of London.
Even his accent is a pure British accent, something Zhou Dongsheng can only fall behind in this area.
Fortunately, although we cannot be "poetry-savvy", we can be "rich and confident".
Especially in this country that is full of extravagant capital, abundant capital can experience happiness that many people cannot imagine.
Although Zhou Dongsheng hasn't started to let himself go yet, he has already started conspiring loudly with Principal Wang.
"Let's enjoy watching the game today. The venue has been reserved for you tomorrow. I promise you will enjoy it!" Principal Wang said cheerfully.
"Is the product genuine?" Zhou Dongsheng asked with renewed energy.
"It's not exactly on point. It's not only serious foreign goods, but it's also very generous in quantity, so I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it!" Principal Wang said seriously.
"Thousands of days of military training are spent in a moment! My years of fitness achievements are just to wait for an opportunity. I think at this moment, this opportunity to win glory for the country has come!"
Zhou Dongsheng said righteously.
"What's going on? Do you want to take arms to the White House?" Principal Wang teased.
"Hahahaha~" Everyone burst into laughter for a while, and his cousin, who was going abroad for the first time because of Zhou Dongsheng's favor, also looked ready to move.
"Um...cousin, can you bring me one? I've never touched a real one!" said the cousin.
"No problem, cousin, we are all family members. If your cousin doesn't take you, I will take you. You can eat whatever you want. Why don't you consider joining our team to play professionally?"
Principal Wang said very enthusiastically, after all, you don’t look at the monk’s face or the Buddha’s face.
My cousin just giggled and touched his head feeling a little embarrassed.
Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but feel guilty after hearing this. Not only did he take over his family's hometown, but he also gave the new generation of leaders to his subordinates in advance...
This wave of bad guys has really wiped out Principal Wang’s IG team. How about continuing to show Principal Wang a clear path?
At this time, Principal Wang already has one of the five generals of the second-generation champion puzzle. As for the others...
If nothing else happens, he will still be promoted in Liu's youth training camp. After all, this e-sports Huangpu Military Academy is the only one with no branches.
Zhou Dongsheng had some small thoughts running through his mind, and a group of people had already followed the flow of people to the infield.
Although it is an annual World Championship, it is only the quarter-finals after all, and an infield ticket only costs US$40, which is not expensive at all even with the handling fee.
Thousands of dollars were spent on air tickets, so of course the money was worth it, and almost everyone in the group sat in the best seats.
As for the only two remaining teams in the country, they are naturally still actively preparing for the competition. If they want to study their opponents, they must at least advance to the top four first.
Although Principal Wang and Zhou Dongsheng both have the status of club owners, they did not choose to bother them. It would not be too late to go for a walk after the game.
Turning our attention to the arena, although it is only the quarter-finals, the atmosphere of the arena and the players' entrance ceremony can be said to be perfect.
Under the leadership of Liu, all the players in the IM Club sat in a row, looking at the players standing on the stage under the spotlight, with different thoughts.
But there is no doubt that there is a trace of yearning and desire in his eyes.
The World Championship stage is undoubtedly the highest palace of professional players. Only by entering this stage can you be qualified to compete for the ultimate glory of the World Championship.
Whether it is engraving your name on the trophy or leaving your own exclusive skin in the canyon, it is a great honor.
Of course, in addition to this there are considerable skin shares and bonus returns.
Rao is my cousin who has not yet officially entered the professional arena, and there is pure yearning in his eyes.
"I hope that one day, you can become a player on the stage instead of an audience sitting in the auditorium."
Zhou Dongsheng was smiling. Although the venue was noisy, these words still reached everyone's ears.
This is also one of the purposes of his trip. After all, next year will be China’s home game.
If there is a chance to change the world line a little bit, it will be worth the price of admission.
As the group of half-year-old children looked at each other in disbelief, they all planted the seeds of a desire to win in their hearts.
Especially since their results were so poor this year, the boss did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to send them to the world stage to serve as spectators...
With such a generous boss, even though they are young, they still have the impulse of "a scholar will die for his bosom friend".
Zhou Dongsheng clicked to the end, then turned his head and enjoyed this e-sports event as a pure player.
"What do you think of the result of this game?" Principal Wang on the side said with some impatience.
"Does this need to be said? There is no suspense about the outcome." Zhou Dongsheng said cheerfully.
"Of course I know there is no suspense about the outcome, how about we guess the score?" Principal Wang felt that simply watching the game was not interesting, so he wanted to add some bonuses.
"Oh?" Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but become interested. Due to the passage of time, Zhou Dongsheng only remembered the final winner. As for the score, he naturally had no memory of it.
If there was such a "super powerful brain", Zhou Dongsheng wouldn't have accomplished everything, right?
What's more, this is not something as memorable and unforgettable as Germany's 7-1 victory over Brazil in the World Cup.
"This is interesting, then I guess a 3-0, at most 3-1!" Zhou Dongsheng said decisively, just shy of the famous scene of "beating his chest and looking at the camera".
"Okay, I'll take it 3-0. After all, it's the home game of North America. No matter what, I can score a point..." Principal Wang said confidently.
As for what the bet is, it obviously doesn't matter to the two of them.
After all, to this day, Principal Wang still has not won a victory against Zhou Dongsheng. Principal Wang can hardly hold his head up. As long as he can win back a victory, that is more important than anything else.
Looking at the luxurious lineup of the Samsung team on the stage, this is the lineup that will advance to the final stage.
Although he was finally defeated in the hands of the Big Devil and achieved the great cause of the Triple Crown Devil, the following year he transformed into the Avengers and directly played the famous scene of "The Devil turns back in tears".
Therefore, for such a galactic battleship, even if Zhou Dongsheng did not remember the score, he still felt that the probability of 3-0 was extremely high.
At the same time, Zhou Dongsheng's heart couldn't help but move, what if...
If you dismantle the Avengers in advance and find a way to recruit a Korean aid, is it possible that the Avengers will fall apart?
Thinking of this, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but have a bad taste, and started to attract Principal Wang's attention with bad intentions. How to convince him to become the successor?
At the same time, at around five o'clock local time and six o'clock in the morning domestic time, the game officially started.
In the first game, the Samsung team directly defeated all three lanes during the laning phase. In the first 6 minutes, C9 chose Nakano and Suke to forcefully capture the mid laner Snake. After two flashes, they failed to catch the slippery Snake.
He even let the mid laner Guang Ge take action and staged a famous scene of 1 vs 3 and even killed an assist, which directly made the game lose its suspense.
Principal Wang on the side transformed into the "Roaring God" and sent a wave of cordial greetings, "Three of them hit one and one was killed in reverse. Do you know how to play?"
Subsequently, good news came from the top and bottom lanes, and the three lanes blossomed, and the game entered garbage time.
The competition on stage was as smooth as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, but Principal Wang in the audience was sitting on pins and needles.
When it was 1-0, Principal Wang didn't panic at all. When it was 2-0, Principal Wang felt that there was no big problem.
We have been forced into a desperate situation, and we are playing at home. No matter what, we should come up with some special skills to win back a point, right?
However, in the face of absolute strength, reject all bells and whistles.
As the saying goes, "strength, then failure, and exhaustion in three." After winning two consecutive games, the Samsung team was feeling hot and naturally would not give its opponents a chance.
In the 29-minute Baron team battle that decided the outcome, C9 seized the only opportunity to drive away the SSG people who were fighting the dragon, and tried to take over the Baron.
As long as they capture this most important map resource, they will have a chance to make a comeback!
Miracles like letting two chase three often start from the third game.
However, just when C9 thought they had grasped the tail of fate, the returning Samsung team killed a carbine and extinguished the flame of hope with their own hands.
As c9 was beaten 4+1, sending 4 people and a baron, the game went directly into garbage time, and even the North American spectators in the field were silent, and some people even left the game one after another.
Principal Wang couldn't help but lean on the back of his chair, his eyes were dull. Zhou Dongsheng asked teasingly, "Are you okay?"
"I'm actually fine... let's go. I'll treat you to supper tonight!" Principal Wang stood up angrily and said gloomily.
"It's okay, I'll treat you to midnight snacks! But these Samsung team players are really strong. Unfortunately, if my team's quota of Korean players hadn't been full, I would have to buy one to reinforce..."
Zhou Dongsheng pretended to be regretful unintentionally, but in fact he was full of bad intentions.
At this time, Liu finally got a chance to speak and said quickly: "Boss, although there are restrictions on the number of Korean players on the field, there can only be two players, but the bench will not be affected. We can rotate..."
Obviously no one knows the rules of the league better than Liu, a retired celebrity and team manager.
"Oh? That's something you can consider. Which of our teams do you think needs reinforcement?" Zhou Dongsheng began to discuss the team with Liu seriously.
All the players couldn't help but start to feel frightened, fearing that their jobs would be lost if they were not careful, especially Song Yijin, a Chinese player.
Although he is a Korean aid, he is already proficient in Chinese and can naturally understand what the boss is discussing.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Principal Wang couldn't help but feel moved in his heart.
Zhou Dongsheng's vision is very discerning. Whether he is an "Internet celebrity Bole" or an "investment genius", both are due to his sharp vision.
Although he has not yet made any achievements in the field of e-sports, as the saying goes, one method can solve all problems. Principal Wang's subconscious intuition felt that the players Zhou Dongsheng was interested in might actually have miraculous effects.
So I couldn't help but ask: "Dongsheng, which player do you like?"
"I think the ruler in the AD position is quite good, especially since Yu Wenbo is not yet old enough to debut, so he can be bought as a stepping stone for Yu Wenbo..."
Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile, if one of the most important C positions can be removed, the strength of the Avengers will undoubtedly be greatly reduced.
Yu Wenbo, who was mingling with his cousin on the side, heard this and felt happier than if he had eaten ginseng fruit when his boss thought so highly of him.
"Boss, King Chi is indeed very strong, but I am worthy of him in the laning. I am 50-50 even with him in the Korean server..." The young and frivolous Yu Wenbo shook his head and said.
Zhou Dongsheng patted Yu Wenbo on the shoulder with great satisfaction. If you are not so angry, how can you call him a young man?
Principal Wang, on the other hand, secretly made a note in his mind that when the transfer period begins, it can be put into operation...
While the group was laughing, they decided on a whim to find some local delicacies to eat on the streets of Chicago.
Although the security on the streets at night is not very good, as the saying goes, fear comes from lack of firepower, surrounded by a few big guys in black suits, it can be said that there is a sense of security.
Especially the security services provided by this regular security company. In order to fully protect the safety of their employers, every big guy has a big bulge around his waist. They are legally allowed to hold guns.
Of course, the security fee is much more expensive than the air ticket, but don't mention it, it feels so good.
It seems that after returning to China, it is necessary for me to find a few suitable candidates and let Dongsheng Group form a security team. Even if I don't need it, others may not need it.
Two flowers bloom, one on each side.
Zhou Dongsheng and others were naturally enjoying the fun of traveling abroad, but Lu Sifang and his entourage naturally did not forget that they were here to do business.
Before Lu Sifang changed jobs, he worked for an overseas investment institution, so he was naturally comfortable with overseas investment business.
Not only did he have some connections, but he also had Zhou Dongsheng’s money to clear the way, whether it was applying for an overseas offshore company or collecting funds at a low level in the virtual currency market.
Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner. At the same time, the virtual currency market has begun to show signs of rising, and it is likely to break through 7.
A giant western dragon is slowly raising its head and opening its bloody mouth towards the market.
At the same time, Lu Sifang came to Zhou Dongsheng to report to Zhou Dongsheng with the latest report.
