Chapter 796 Across the Street!

At 7:05 in the morning, the plane landed at Los Angeles Airport.

Taking into account the time difference, the current domestic time is 15 hours faster, which means that it is actually 22 o'clock in the evening in Jingzhou.

Pan Ying had already had a good night's sleep on the plane, went to the bathroom early to change out of her pajamas, and then simply washed up.

The ten or so hours on the plane were still very wonderful for him. First, he ate like crazy, all kinds of meals, drinks, ice cream, and desserts. After he was full, he put on his headphones and watched Two movies, and then a good eight hours of sleep.

Wake up now, refreshed.

I had filled out the declaration form on the plane before, and Wu Yue also sent everyone a mobile phone card for local use.

Like other team members, Pan Ying put on the phone card and turned on the phone.

"Huh? Today is still the 22nd?"

Pan Ying instinctively felt a little strange, because it was noon on the 22nd when they left Shanghai, but it turned into the morning of the 22nd when they arrived in Los Angeles, as if they had been whoring all day for no reason in their lives time.

Wu Yue smiled: "When you return to China, you will have to pay back the time."

"Okay, everyone hurry up and grab your luggage, we're about to get off the plane."

Thinking that they are now in a foreign country, Pan Ying and other team members are very afraid that they will be lost. When the time comes, it will be difficult for everyone to ask for directions in English at the construction site, so they hurry up.

Although the plane is double-decker, there are only dozens of seats in the business class, and more than 400 seats in the economy class, so there are economy classes on the upper and lower floors.

It's just that there is a special channel for business class, with priority for getting on and off the plane, and there is an express entry service for business travelers, so it can save a lot of time whether it is getting on or off the plane.

Wu Yue didn't know where Zhao Xuming and the others were, but since they were not going to the same place, there was no need to meet again.

The interpreter has already contacted the bodyguards and minibus hired in advance here, and can go directly from the airport to the venue of the competition.

Under the guidance of Wu Yue, Ding Gan and the translator, the crowd quickly joined the local guides and bodyguards hired in advance.

These four bodyguards are all in suits and leather shoes, and they are also wearing sunglasses. Even if they are pulled over and placed next to the president, they will not feel out of place in the slightest.

Pan Ying sighed from the bottom of her heart: "This is too damn good..."

"What a dreamlike morning."

The other team members are also full of excitement, and they are all full of energy. The dozen or so hours on the plane did not make them feel tired, on the contrary, they had a good rest and now they are full of energy.

The three photographers were also filming the whole process, recording every bit of the team members' journey from Shanghai to Los Angeles. After all, the money was enough and they were very conscientious.

On the minibus, Pan Ying asked, "Where did we book the hotel?"

Wu Yue smiled and said, "It's near the venue, the Ritz-Carlton Hotel."

Ding Gan couldn't help feeling emotional: "The per capita board and lodging standard set by Mr. Pei for you is outrageous. It's no problem for me to pay for the Ritz-Carlton Hotel myself, but I have to live for 30 people, and I have to stay for a month... It's too exaggerated .”

Wu Yue nodded: "Actually, I didn't think too much about it at the time. Mr. Pei's board and lodging standard was too high. I saw that there happened to be a Ritz-Carlton Hotel nearby, and it was suitable in all aspects, so I decided on it."

Ding Gan couldn't help being speechless.

God is so good!

The Ritz-Carlton Hotel is a high-end hotel of the resort brand. Even among the five-star hotels, it is considered a relatively luxurious category, and it is only one street away from the competition venue, so the location is very good.

Of course Ding Gan is willing to live by himself, but Mr. Pei arranged all the 30 people in the whole team here, which highlights the inhumanity.

Wu Yue looked around the crowd, and said: "The hotel can only check in in the afternoon. We can store our luggage when we arrive, and then have something to eat. There is a special chef here to provide Chinese food. In order to prevent the situation of acclimatization, we will eat in the following way." Mainly Chinese food.”

"Of course, before the official start of the World Championship, you can eat some local specialties every now and then to adjust."

"Do you need to rest at the hotel?"

The players shook their heads.

What else is there to rest for? I have already eaten and drank enough on the plane, and slept for eight hours. Now I can start training after eating anything!

Wu Yue nodded: "Okay, then let's store our luggage first, and after we settle down, we will go to the training place and check in when we come back in the afternoon."

"There are not many Internet cafes here, after all, Internet cafe culture is not particularly popular abroad."

"Considering factors such as distance, environment, and computer configuration, there is only one that is the most suitable."

"We have booked all the machines on the second floor of this Internet cafe in advance, and we will all train here in the future. However, everyone should be mentally prepared. Although it is the Internet cafe with the best conditions nearby, you may not be able to go to Moyu Internet cafe. That level."

Pan Ying was a little surprised: "Huh? Is it a direct booking? Wouldn't it be a bit too wasteful?"

Wu Yue shook his head: "It's more cost-effective instead of wasting."

"The Internet fee here is different from that in China. It is very expensive. It costs 10 dollars an hour, 18 dollars for 3 hours, and only 20 dollars a day for chartered flights. Because most players here only play for 1-3 hours. , so the price was set.”

"We train here except for resting in the hotel. I have asked the boss in advance. There are a lot of machines in the lobby on the first floor, there are hundreds of machines, but there are less than 30 machines on the second floor. The environment on the second floor is better, and all are covered. It’s only about 600 knives a day, which is not expensive.”

"In this way, you don't have to worry about being disturbed by strangers, and you don't have to worry about possible tactical leaks."

Pan Ying nodded excitedly: "Yes, it's perfect! Then let's hurry up and start practicing, I can't wait!"

...

After more than two hours, Zhao Xuming and the players from the two clubs finally arrived at the entrance of the Courtyard by Marriott Hotel with sleepy eyes.

Although the distance from the airport to here is not too far, it took a lot of time to get luggage and other operations when leaving the airport.

The team members were all a little listless, and felt that they were all supported by a breath of immortal energy.

Although they all slept for a few hours, the chairs in the economy class really couldn't sleep soundly. They often woke up every two or three hours. See a movie.

In short, everyone didn't rest very well. It can be said that they were exhausted, their clothes were full of wrinkles, and their hairstyles were very messy. They wished they could take a shower in the hotel and have a good night's sleep.

Zhao Xuming thought to himself, fortunately, people in the business class can leave first, otherwise it would be so embarrassing to meet again at the airport!

He can imagine the look of Wu Yue and the others when they left the business class, and then look at his own state... he can't taste it carefully.

Anyway, we finally arrived at the hotel!

The team members looked at the magnificent building of the Courtyard Hotel in front of them, and the fatigue of the journey was finally relieved, and the eyes of each one were full of excitement.

This time, the official hotel arranged by the finger company for each club is this Courtyard Hotel, which can be seamlessly connected after the start of the World Championship.

The Courtyard by Marriott Hotel is roughly equivalent to a four-star, mid-range hotel, which is considered to be quite famous. Anyone who comes here can't say that the accommodation conditions are poor.

The main entrance of the hotel is an arc-shaped inwardly sunken hall, and there is a huge billboard on it, which looks very grand.

Just as everyone was about to drag their luggage and step in, they heard a team member say, "Hey, where is this tall building across the road?"

When the others turned their heads, they saw a sea-blue skyscraper rising into the sky across the street.

Although the building of the Courtyard Hotel is quite tall, it is not at the same level as the building across the road. The latter can already be regarded as a landmark building, and it is more than 200 meters high by visual inspection.

Zhao Xuming said, "Oh, that's the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, the price is about three times the price here."

The team members couldn't help being dumbfounded, and they didn't mention this topic very tacitly.

Can it be three times more expensive?

A double room here costs about 1,000 yuan, but it costs 2,500 yuan over there. The price gap is really huge.

However, the two hotels are separated by a road, and they happen to be facing each other. They are only about 200 meters away from the venue, and they are exactly the same in terms of convenience.

And the Courtyard Hotel is not too bad to live here, what kind of family is that living in the opposite building? Contentment is always happy, contentment is always happy.

The players had no choice but to comfort themselves like this.

However, just as these people were about to enter the hotel lobby and forget about it, they saw a group of people coming out of the opposite Ritz-Carlton Hotel, talking and laughing, one by one boarding the small parking lot parked not far away. bus.

The three big photographers still conscientiously followed behind to shoot.

Although the distance was not too close, Zhao Xuming and others recognized at a glance that they were the people from the FV club. After all, in a foreign country, all compatriots would naturally have their own highlighting effect.

I saw the minibus start quickly, carrying a team of team members who didn't know where to go.

Zhao Xuming and the others fell into an awkward silence.

In fact, the members of the two clubs didn't have any special feelings before. They felt that although the hotel opposite was good, it had nothing to do with them. Most of them were celebrities and wealthy local tyrants.

Since Zhitou has uniformly arranged the Courtyard Hotel for all clubs, and everyone has the same food and accommodation conditions, there is no need to ask for more.

But seeing everyone from the FV club and SUG club coming out of the opposite Ritz-Carlton Hotel, everyone's mentality has undergone some subtle changes.

This is too unacceptable!

When this group of people came, it was fine to fly business class, and the hotel they stayed in was twice as expensive as the official arrangement, several grades higher!

The mentality is a little bit broken.

Zhao Xuming only has one feeling now, which is outrageous!

What is the relationship between this FV club and Mr. Pei?

Don't those old foreign clubs and those high-value star players also obediently stay in the Courtyard Hotel?

I don't know how big this group of people in the FV club is!

Zhao Xuming was sour in silence, and after a moment of silence, he quickly changed the subject: "Hurry up and check in, let's find a place to eat."

Others also responded one after another, never mentioning anything about the FV club.

Since check-in is only available in the afternoon, everyone decided to store their luggage first, eat something casually at the hotel, and check in after the training venue is set.

There is a $15 buffet in the hotel, all of which are standard American food and snacks. It’s not particularly customary to eat, but overall it’s not bad.

Zhao Xuming, the accompanying translator and the two club leaders began to think about the training venue while eating.

Although Finger Company will arrange a training room officially, it must be after the start of the World Championships, and most of the so-called training rooms are rented conference rooms in the hotel for the players, and then put a few computers, a few TVs, etc. Competing for chairs, the overall conditions and environment cannot be expected.

If you want to train these days, you still have to find a place by yourself.

The translator said: "Mr. Zhao, I just checked here. There are not many Internet cafes nearby, but there is one with relatively good conditions. You can consider it."

"We can go and have a look after dinner. It just so happens that the high-score super account given by the finger company is also available. At that time, the players can play RANK here, and the training matches with other European and American teams can also be arranged in advance. .”

Zhao Xuming nodded absently.

He doesn't care about the training situation of the two teams at all, after all, he is in charge of the operation of ioi by Longyu Group, and he is not the mother of the team.

Zhao Xuming felt that it was fine for him to pay for these two teams, but he couldn't find a training ground, so he had to ask about it, right?

He has only one idea now, which is to move in quickly, take a shower and have a good sleep, and then visit the headquarters of Finger Company with the other accompanying employees of Longyu Group.

At this moment, a team leader suddenly said: "Wow, the hotel where the FV club is staying... the environment is too good?"

The team members next to him leaned their heads over to check.

On the official Weibo of the FV club, the details of this trip to Los Angeles have been updated in real time, including the group photos at the airport before, and some small daily videos.

The latest Weibo is a photo of everyone dining at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. Obviously, the group of people from the FV club arrived more than half an hour earlier than them.

The photos did not focus on the food, but mainly on the players. But it can still be seen that the dining environment is obviously not at the same level as here. There are all kinds of food, sushi, sashimi, cakes, barbecue, and even Chinese food.

The color of the food is quite bright, and the presentation is also very delicate. All the food is carefully arranged. After being photographed by a professional photographer, it looks very appetizing.

Unsurprisingly, there are all kinds of "poisoning late at night" and "envy, jealousy and hate" comments below Weibo, after all, it is late at night in China.

The players of the two clubs looked at the buffet they were eating, and the knives and forks in their hands slowed down unconsciously.

As for Zhao Xuming, he was even more angry.

This group of people in the FV club is really too much!

Like a turkey, walking all the way, shooting all the way, showing off non-stop, as for it?

Everyone knows that the hotel over there is good, but it doesn’t matter if you just take pictures outside, even the food?

What's the difference between this and eating?

Too much, too much!

Zhao Xuming thought the buffet here was good just now, but now he just feels unwilling to eat.

uncomfortable!
