Chapter 778 Mr. Pei, Go to the Meeting Alone

Pei Qian rubbed his eyes, and then carefully looked at the team logo on the big screen.

That's right, it's the FV club, that weak chicken club I invested in?

Why did the commentator use the term "all-star"?

Can these three unwanted players be considered All-Stars?

Doesn't make sense?

Amidst Pei Qian's doubts, the progress of the game continued.

The camera began to take pictures of the players preparing, and a close-up of each player appeared on the big screen, indicating their game ID, real name, age, game rank, hero they are good at, and so on.

The contestants also noticed that the camera was shooting close-ups, and their reactions varied.

Some greeted the audience, some posed poses, and some were indifferent and still kept their heads in the practice mode.

And the two commentators are also introducing the detailed information of these players to the audience, including the time of playing professionally, interesting things in professional experience, and interesting stalks.

"What you see now is the top laner of the FV club. He is one of the earliest star players in the ioi game. He has already made a name for himself on the world server before the national server was opened. He has a lot of experience. Known for his fierce style of play and strong suppression."

"Next is the mid laner of the FV Club. He is very young. He is only 17 years old this year. He used more than 20 different mid laners to rank first in the ioi world server. He is a veritable genius boy. We can wait and see his performance today. .”

"The jungler of the FV club was a not-so-famous rookie before. It is said that the mid laner met him in RANK. He has been playing in duos and has a good understanding. Today we can look forward to the cooperation between the two."

"The bottom lane duo of the FV club was originally the star bottom lane of the SUG club, and it is also known as the first bottom lane combination in the ioi national server. Some time ago, there were rumors that the two seemed to transform into GOG, but there has been no definite news. .I didn’t expect that the first game I will play again will be a head-to-head confrontation with my old club. I don’t know what kind of sparks will be created between the two sides?”

"On the other hand, the SUG club, although the lineup originally revolved around the core of the bot lane, the strength of the other three veteran players must not be underestimated. They may have some advantages in terms of tactics and tacit understanding."

"Why did the SUG club change the star bot lane duo? We don't know. Maybe it's because the new bot lane performed better than the original bot lane, so they put it on the FV club?"

"In short, today's game is full of highlights and worth looking forward to!"

In the audience, Ding Gan, the owner of the SUG club, was also watching the match, and his teeth itched with anger after hearing the commentary.

Is the new bot lane performing better than the original bot lane?

What a hammer!

At that time, there was no news about the ioi world championship at all. Ding Gan felt that it was useless to support this ioi team, and SHG offered a lot of transfer fees, so he sold this bot lane combination!

If I had known that the ioi World Championship would start so soon, I wouldn't be able to sell anything!

Ding Gan knew in his heart that although the new bot lane duo was also good in strength, it was still incomparable with the original two, and there was a big gap in hard power.

But there is no way, the players who are released will be overwhelmed and hard to recover.

Ding Gan was anxious and angry, panicked in his heart.

And Pei Qian, who was not far from him and was also sitting in the VIP seat, was also in a panic at this time.

Although he didn't know any of these players, the commentary had already explained it in such detail, and he should have a clear and objective understanding of the strength of the entire team.

This team is called "All Stars", that's not too much!

Veteran top laner in the top lane, mid laner king, jungler is the queen jungler of the laner king, and the bottom lane star duo is the core of SUG's tactics. How ridiculous is this lineup on paper!

Now Pei Qian only wondered one question, where did Wu Yue, the owner of the FV club, get these people!

Didn't they just give him three million? With this little money, you can buy one or two good players if you are exhausted, and other clubs may not be willing to sell.

Formed a dream team directly, gathered all the best ioi players in China, this is outrageous!

Pei Qian hurriedly took out his mobile phone and entered the live broadcast room of the ioi qualifying competition, wanting to see what the barrage said.

"What the hell? The FV club has turned around? The boss won the lottery? Why did he suddenly make an all-star team? Where did he get the money from?"

"Ten years old fan of FV came here uninvited!"

"Beat the old club violently? This is a good show!"

"The two sides seem to be in sharp contrast. The players on the FV club are all tall and straight, with a good temperament. They are in stark contrast to the SUG group of thin monkeys."

"I remember that the two bot laners were quite skinny when they were in SUG. How do you feel that they have gained weight and temperament now? Did FV hire a cosmetician? Or did they go through some secret training?"

"So why on earth did SUG release this bot lane duo? The top bot lane in China is actually given to another club? It stands to reason that this kind of product should not be for sale, right? No matter how much transfer fee you pay, you can't sell it!"

"I don't know. There was a gossip saying that these two people thought that ioi was going to die and wanted to transform into GOG. There was even a rumor that a team from the GPL bought them away. I don't know if it's true or not."

"It's no wonder that the FV club tried their best to promote it before the start of the game. Before, I wondered why they spent money to make wedding dresses for others. Now I understand, they are building momentum for themselves!"

The game has not yet started, but the barrage has already heated up significantly.

Although the game in the morning seemed to be very popular, the barrage was not dense, probably because there were not many hot topics to discuss.

But when the FV Club made its debut in the afternoon and saw the all-star lineup, many old ioi players and viewers couldn't hold back their excitement and started to discuss heatedly.

After FV Club and Longyu Group's promotion, although the ioi qualifying competition is still far less popular than the GPL league, at least it has wiped out all the old ioi players and viewers in China.

But now, all the enthusiasm gathered through hard work is focused on FV, the all-star team that turned out to be born out of nowhere.

Before the game started, it had already earned enough popularity.

Both Pei Qian and Ding Gan were in the audience, watching the progress of the game with trepidation.

...

"Let's congratulate FV! Although there were some twists and turns during the game, we still won the game without any risk!"

During the passionate commentary, a victory screen appeared on the big screen, and the five members of the FV Club were full of spirits, as if they had a kind of domineering arrogance.

The players packed up their equipment and left the field. The players of the FV club didn't have much excitement on their faces, but were very calm.

The schedule of this qualifying round is relatively tight. There are four teams in the group. It is a BO1 single round and the game is over in one afternoon, so every small round is very important.

The strength of SUG in this group is obviously higher than that of the other two teams, so FV is basically sure to qualify after winning this game.

As for whether SUG can qualify, it depends on whether the next game will overturn.

The two commentators began to comment on the game.

"We saw in this game that it seems that the players of the FV club were not particularly happy after winning. Maybe they are not particularly satisfied with today's performance, or they have higher expectations for themselves."

"Indeed, from the performance in the game alone, we can clearly see that the FV club's personal ability is higher than that of SUG, but there seems to be some flaws in terms of player selection and tactical execution, otherwise the game may change. more suspense-free."

"Does this mean that the current FV hasn't finished grinding?"

"I don't think it's all about running-in. Their tactical system and game understanding seem to have certain problems. We can see that their preferred heroes are not the currently recognized strongest version heroes, and they prefer team-based heroes. And in terms of style of play and understanding of the game, I didn't put too much emphasis on personal abilities, and it seemed a bit out of tune with the mainstream style of play of other teams..."

"Is it because their team's tactical team has some different understanding of the game version?"

"It's possible, but this kind of game understanding seems to be immature. FV can win SUG today mainly because of its stronger personal strength. If it meets a foreign team whose personal ability is not inferior to FV, can it still win this game? I'm going to make a question mark when I come down..."

The two commentators are telling the truth, because in their opinion, the FV team's style of play is indeed a bit strange, and it seems incompatible with the current mainstream style of play.

Moreover, this style of play did not actually achieve very good results. On the contrary, it placed too much emphasis on teamwork, and caused certain restrictions in hero selection and in-game decision-making, so that the players did not get 100% of their personal strength.

But these words sounded like outright ridicule to Ding Gan.

"What do you mean, use us to train the lineup?"

"Who do you look down on?"

"Winning and putting on a dirty face, damn it, these people are too crazy!"

Ding Gan was so angry that it was nothing to lose the game, but the opponent lost in the lineup training. In his opinion, it was FV deliberately showing off the hard power of his team.

What's the matter, dissatisfied? All-star teams can do whatever they want!

That's pretty much it.

Ding Gan became even angrier when he thought that FV's bot lane duo was originally released by himself. If this duo is still there, how could SUG lose?

However, Ding Gan is also very clear that winning or losing this game is not a big problem. Anyway, each group has two teams qualifying, and SUG will appear no matter what. What really needs to be worried about is tomorrow's knockout round.

The knockout match is BO5, and if one of the four teams is to be eliminated, it depends on who is the unlucky one.

...

At the same time, Jingzhou, the scene of the GPL competition.

Zhang Yuan, Ye Zhizhou, Xiao Peng and several other leaders are watching the opening match of the GPL.

The two sides of the competition are currently the two strongest teams in the GPL, and they were also the champions and runners-up of the previous World Championships. They played nervously and extremely excitingly.

In the BO3 competition system, the two sides have already played 1:1, entering the final round, and the atmosphere on the scene has reached its highest point.

In the warm cheers, fans from both sides cheered for the two teams, and then they did not forget to shout "DGE Come on" in unison, forming a special competition area culture.

The votes of the insiders of the Tenda Group were neither the first nor the last, but chose a position slightly ahead of the center.

Because the tickets in the front row are for the core fans and support of both teams, the free tickets given by internal personnel cannot affect the fans' viewing experience.

The deciding game was still on the BP interface. Zhang Yuan took out his mobile phone and checked the comments of the players on the Internet. He found that only a small number of people were discussing the opening match itself, while most of the topics were focused on the ioi qualifying match and the opening match of the GPL. in comparison.

"The venue gap between the two sides is too big. Isn't the ioi competition co-organized by Longyu Group and Finger Company? Why is the venue so shabby?"

"To be honest, the ioi game feels like a complete copy of GOG. Even the scene layout, BP in the game, and the game viewing interface have a strong sense of sight. Is it really okay?"

"I think it's okay, they are all the same type of games, so don't be so harsh."

"Hey, who made the ioi competition late? GOG's competition has been running well, and all aspects are very perfect. It is easy for ioi to give people a feeling of imitation, although in terms of time , ioi is ahead of GOG."

"However, learning after learning is still a little tasteless, and there are many differences in details. Let's talk about the image of the players. You can see that the players on the GPL side are tall and straight, and their mental outlook is completely different. On the other hand, on the ioi side, except for the FV team. Other than the pretty good players, the others still look like internet-addicted teenagers, and their image is quite different."

"Indeed, the accumulation of such details makes people feel almost tasteless. I always feel that the ioi game is like a copycat version of GPL."

"Tengda is still awesome. I feel that I have taken the entire e-sports industry a big step forward by myself!"

Obviously, the vast majority of viewers felt that the excitement of the GPL league completely crushed the ioi qualifying competition.

On the one hand, it is because GOG has more players, and on the other hand, it is because the details of GPL are better.

A point that is repeatedly mentioned is the image of the players. Most of the GPL players are of standard build, and there are a few muscular men who look very sunny and handsome, giving people a positive feeling; on the other hand, the players on ioi are still more traditional internet-addicted teenagers , it has lost its image.

The continuous accumulation of such details makes ioi's games virtually lower than the GPL, and people naturally have a feeling that "ioi's games are copied from the GPL".

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Now that I think about it, Mr. Pei really has a plan."

"GOG's success in the field of e-sports, on the one hand, is the success of the game, and on the other hand, it is also the success of the details. Besides Mr. Pei, who else could have predicted in advance the importance of the player's image to the popularity of e-sports competitions?"

"Mr. Pei determined the training standards through the DGE club and guided other clubs to also pay attention to the physical exercise of the players. On the one hand, it ensured the players' physical health, and on the other hand, it also improved the image of the league..."

"This is equivalent to building a moat for GOG. The two fields of games and e-sports will protect each other and complement each other."

Ye Zhizhou, who was sitting on the side, said: "Speaking of which, it's already the final game. President Pei really doesn't plan to come to see it today? How can you say that this is also the opening match."

It stands to reason that this is the first day of the GPL, which is of great significance. ioi held another qualifying round, which put a little pressure on the GPL side. You should really come and see it live.

Xiao Peng, who was sitting on the other side, said: "Perhaps Mr. Pei feels that he has the chance to win, and the ioi qualifying round cannot pose any threat to the GPL, so why don't you watch it."

Zhang Yuan chuckled and said, "You all guessed wrong, in fact, Boss Pei is not in Jingzhou now."

Ye Zhizhou froze for a moment: "Not in Jingzhou? Are you on a business trip?"

Zhang Yuan lowered his voice and said, "Boss Pei went to Shanghai to watch the ioi game by himself!"

Both Ye Zhizhou and Xiao Peng showed slightly surprised expressions on their faces.

Mr. Pei actually went to the magic capital alone, and went deep into the local lair to watch the battle?

Because Mr. Pei has always given people the impression of a wise general who strategizes and wins thousands of miles. As long as he is in Jingzhou, what happens in all parts of the country cannot escape his eyes.

But now Mr. Pei actually went to Shanghai, to the scene of the ioi competition... For some reason, this kind of behavior seemed inexplicably more like going to the meeting alone in everyone's eyes.

Aside from emotion, Xiao Peng felt a little puzzled: "But, if it's just to spy on the enemy's situation at close range, is it necessary for Mr. Pei to go there in person?"

Zhang Yuan chuckled: "Of course it's not just for the purpose of spying on the enemy. How could Mr. Pei have a single purpose in doing things? There must be a complete set of plans!"

"Actually, Mr. Pei has already invested in the FV club in private, planting a foreshadowing in the ioi team."

"I think Mr. Pei is mostly waiting for a suitable opportunity. FV Club may become the winner of ioi and GOG in the field of e-sports!"

"As for how it will be operated... I don't know, let's wait and see!"

Ye Zhizhou and Xiao Peng nodded in agreement.

...

"Let us congratulate FV Club and SUG Club for getting the final qualifying places!"

"Tomorrow morning and afternoon, we will conduct two BO5 games respectively to determine the final place leading to the World Championship. Please wait and see!"

Ding Gan, who had been pinching his sweat in the auditorium, finally relaxed a little.

The group match in the afternoon was a surprise for SUG. Although they lost to FV Club in the first game, they still won without any danger and got the second place in the group.

Tomorrow's knockout match schedule is still full. The first and second places in the two groups will play a BO5 respectively. The two winners will compete for the top seed, and the two losers will compete for the last spot.

In terms of the ioi World Championship schedule this time, it is protected by the competition area.

Because Zhao Xuming is very clear that the current ioi team in the national server is not strong enough, and if they play against a strong foreign team, they may be beaten violently, so they must raise their hand in the competition system, so as not to lose face.

Therefore, Chretien decided with the top management of the finger company that the No. 1 seed in each division will start from the quarter-finals, while the No. 2 and No. 3 seeds will play in the group stage.

In this way, it is possible to avoid the situation where all teams are wiped out in the group stage, and at least keep the attention of domestic players until the quarterfinals.

If the strongest team in the country is still tortured by blood after being recommended to the quarterfinals... then there is really no way.

After watching SUG torture the remaining two teams, Ding Gan's mentality stabilized a lot.

"It doesn't seem to be our SUG's problem, but this FV is too strong."

"On the bright side, it would be a good thing to meet FV in the group stage, and it is basically unlikely to meet them tomorrow."

"Tomorrow we will play two BO5s. As long as we don't touch the FV club, we will be able to qualify."

Ding Gan kept comforting himself, and his mentality was finally stabilized.

It was already late at the end of the game, and the audience left the field one after another. Ding Gan also stood up and prepared to go backstage to condolences to his players.

However, just as he was about to leave, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of his eye, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

Ding Gan was sitting in the VIP seat in the front row. Many people had already got up and left, and a lot of seats were vacant, but there was only one figure wearing a black mask sitting in the seat, which seemed a bit out of place.

Ding Gan frowned and took a closer look. Although this person was wearing a mask, his facial features and clothes seemed familiar.

"Boss Pei?!"

After the SUG club was removed from the GPL before, Ding Gan made a special trip to Jingzhou and had a relationship with Mr. Pei, so he recognized it.

After confirming Mr. Pei's identity, many thoughts instantly appeared in Ding Gan's mind.

All the conspiracies seemed to be connected at this moment.

Why does the FV club take the initiative to spend money on publicity?

Where do the star players of the FV club come from?

Ding Gan believes that Mr. Pei must have many methods hidden in the dark, but he has not seen it yet.

All of this is obviously Mr. Pei's layout, it's just a game of chess between the two games GOG and ioi in the e-sports field, and SUG and these other clubs are actually just pawns!

Even Mr. Pei personally went to Shanghai to the scene of the ioi qualifying competition to appreciate his layout up close.

Just like a perverted murderer, after committing a crime, he has to go back to the scene of the crime to have a look. Only by observing at a close distance can he get a sense of satisfaction.

Ding Gan suddenly shuddered!
