The wonderful vacation was fulfilling but short. Lin Mi and Rong Zezhou stayed at home for two days. After Gu Ming brought Gu Dong to move away the things that Lin Mi had packed, they returned to the team base together.
The team coach Roll welcomed them on behalf of all members of the WDG team.
"We welcome the two gentlemen who have dominated the hot search list even during the holidays to come and give us guidance,"
Roll stood at the stairs and clapped his hands vigorously. "What do you want to say about our poor economic team and coaching staff who have to work overtime to reduce the trending searches for the two of you during the holidays?"
Lin Mi covered his face silently.
Rong Zezhou said calmly: "Overtime pay will be calculated as ten times the salary."
Roll's eyes lit up instantly, and he put on a flattering smile: "Uncle, the hot search is right there, you can go on it if you want, I'm ready to serve you at any time!"
Rong Zezhou: ...
Yan Jin walked out of the office and grabbed Roll's collar, threw his embarrassing coach behind him, then pressed his aching forehead and said to Lin Mi:
"Xiaomi, the game company Ghost Altar said it will release a new game by the end of the year and would like you to help test it. Are you interested?"
Lin Mi poked his head out from behind Rong Zezhou: "If I agree, will they sponsor me?"
Rong Zezhou ruffled his team leader's hair and reiterated helplessly: "The team is not short of money."
Lin Mi said confidently: "Even if we are not short of money, it will be more prestigious to have more sponsors!"
Rong Zezhou: ...
Okay, what you said makes sense.
"There is no sponsorship," Yan Jin continued, "but if you are willing to go to their headquarters to help with testing after the World Championship, their company can provide private jet pick-up service."
Yan Jin paused for a moment and added, "The kind that picks up and drops off the entire team."
The method of looking at the collar pattern that Lin Mi used to clear the Ghost Altar two days ago was eventually announced by the game company as a hidden Easter egg, and the game company congratulated Lin Mi for being the first player to discover it, and gave him a super exquisite Fu Yu figurine gift package.
In fact, they had already contacted Lin Mi privately, carefully asked about the relevant details, and offered a "test fee" with both hands -
In fact, it should be called hush money.
After all, it is one of the top game companies in the country, and the designers also want to save face.
This year's S game will be held in China, and the venue will be chosen in the southernmost city of H. The headquarters of this game company happens to be in H city, so there was such an invitation.
Although domestic transportation is convenient and there are many flights, civil aviation passengers are numerous and complicated, and private aircraft are not as quiet and comfortable, not to mention -
Having a private jet pick-up is so prestigious!
"I think it's possible." Lin Mi agreed immediately.
He had always liked the games of this company. The games were fun, the staff were very friendly and generous, and since it was something that happened along the way, why not do it?
Rong Zezhou really wanted to say that he had already arranged for a private jet to pick him up, but then he changed his mind and thought that even if his family had the money, all the money would be his.
Now he is a family man and can't waste time like this anymore.
His boyfriend will dislike him.
Rong Zezhou chose to keep his mouth shut.
So when the kids who went out to play during the holiday returned to the team, they received the news that they were about to have a private jet trip.
"I just have one question,"
Brother Hai was distributing the mountain products he brought from the mountains to everyone while saying, "We haven't started the playoffs yet, and we haven't qualified for the World Championship yet. How can you be so confident that we must go to City H? What if, what if?"
Lin Mi replied coldly: "There is no such thing as a contingency. If there is a contingency, I can also go to H City to take the test myself. Now it depends on how many people can get on the plane."
WDG team members: ...
What you said makes a lot of sense.
In order to get on the private plane, the players of the WDG team tried their best. They easily defeated the LBG team, whom they had lost to in the regular season, 3:0 in the semi-finals and met the DZG team in the finals.
If WDG wins this final, they will complete the legendary experience of winning the championship in the first season of the reorganized team and advance to the S game as the number one seed.
"Everyone, please work harder today. I've been working so hard for several days. I don't want to be the pick for the bubble match anymore!"
While waiting to go on stage, Roll asked everyone to gather together and make a final plea.
Lin Mi, who did not start the game but participated in the first game as an assistant coach, took the initiative to pull his teammates' hands together and said, "Come on, for the coach's hair!"
Everyone on the WDG team: "Come on for the coach's hair!"
roll:……
These naughty kids!
Okay, okay, as long as we can win, you can say anything.
"Welcome everyone to the LPL Summer Finals. I am your favorite commentator, Bi Hai!"
The pre-match performance outside has ended, and Bi Hai's voice echoes throughout the entire competition venue, "Are you ready?"
Audience: “Ready!”
Qingtian: "Hello everyone, I am today's commentator Qingtian. Without further ado, let's welcome today's two teams to the stage!"
As an assistant coach, Lin Mi did not need to attend the entrance ceremony. He stood at the exit of the contestant channel and confirmed for the last time whether the contestants' clothes and hairstyles were appropriate.
He helped the three children to flatten their collars, then praised the very dignified Brother Hai with satisfaction. Finally, Lin Mi stood in front of Rong Zezhou.
The makeup artist who did their makeup today was sent by Dong Hui. She has very good makeup skills. Rong Zezhou's already handsome face is now even more handsome and imposing. The makeup looks a little heavy to the naked eye, but he will be very nice on camera.
Lin Mi reached out and touched Rong Zezhou's styled hair, and after making sure it wouldn't fly around, he sighed.
"Ship God, do you think there's something wrong with my mom?"
Lin Mi felt a little aggrieved, "Why did she draw you so handsome for others to see?"
Rong Zezhou laughed all of a sudden, and his originally serious expression became extremely friendly. The photographer next to him quickly recorded it with the camera, preparing to use it as material for the video.
"What should I do? Should I wash my face with mineral water now?"
Rong Zezhou knew that Lin Mi was joking on purpose, so he started to tease him as well.
Lin Mi was not sure how waterproof the makeup the makeup artist used was, so she immediately stopped Rong Zezhou from having this dangerous idea: "Forget it, if my mom saw you on stage with a painted face, she would force me to talk about life."
Rong Zezhou secretly reached out and unbuttoned Lin Mi's suit: "The waist of your suit is too tight."
This well-tailored suit clearly reveals Lin Mi's slim waist and long legs. Once the buttons are fastened, people can't help but focus their attention on Lin Mi's waist. Rong Zezhou could even think of the various videos of his boyfriend edited by some of his black fan groups after the game.
Why should he let those haters lick his screen?
"Stop it," Lin Mi slapped Rong Zezhou's hand away and buttoned up his shirt himself. "The league stipulates that coaches who go on stage for BP must wear formal attire. My mom prepared the clothes. If you have any objections, go to the league and my mom to raise them."
Rong Zezhou: ...
Forget it then.
It was useless for him to offer suggestions to the alliance, and as for Ms. Dong Hui, he did not dare to offer any suggestions.
"It would be nice if you had a body like Roll,"
Rong Zezhou sighed, "Look, Brother Yan isn't worried at all."
roll:……
No, what does your open flirting have to do with me?
I didn't mess with any of you!
"Next, let's welcome the WDG team!"
The loud voice of the female host was heard on the stage, and the members of the WDG team quickly stopped playing, lined up and walked out one by one.
Lin Mi, under the guidance of the staff, walked to the battle seat in advance from the shadow of the stage.
The lights on the stage and the audience's attention were all focused on the starting players, and no one noticed Lin Mi's appearance.
Lin Mi stood in the darkness, looking at his teammates shining under the spotlight and listening to the thunderous cheers in the stadium, feeling a little envious.
It is normal for the team to choose a more stable starting five. This is also the tactic he and the coaching staff have decided on. He still needs to continue working hard until next season, when he becomes stronger. One day he will become one of the people that everyone is paying attention to.
During the host's introduction, the players of the WDG team all struck poses of their signature heroes. Even Rong Zezhou, who was always serious in appearance, raised the staff of Enchantress prepared for him by the staff, which drew cheers from the audience.
The bright lights gradually dimmed, and the contestants walked into the battle seats and sat in front of their computers.
Before sitting down, Rong Zezhou gave Lin Mi a hug.
His action was captured by the camera on the scene and projected onto the big screen.
Audience: Aaaaah!
"Since joining WDG, the boat god has become more and more down-to-earth,"
In the commentary booth, Qingtian sighed, "I remember when the league asked him to pose last season, he refused to cooperate, but today he can actually raise the wand of Leblanc."
Bi Hai: "Otherwise why do you say Mi Zhou CP is YYDS, who has ever seen the scene of the boat god hugging the coach before the game?"
Qingtian: "Please don't talk about CP on the commentary desk. Also, I can't imagine the scene where the ship god hugs the coach of the XY team."
Bi Hai imagined the scene in his mind, shuddered, and immediately changed the subject: "Today, WDG chose to start the bottom lane combination of Jifeng and Xiaohua. It seems that they plan to use the most stable ADC core play to deal with the first game. This is good news for DZG. At least they can now determine which player of WDG plays which position."
Qingtian: "The bad news is that starting from next season, the league will implement a rule that does not allow coaches to serve as substitutes in the same game. In this final, WDG's unlimited swing tactics can still be used, and the assistant coach is ready to play at any time."
Bi Hai: "I feel sorry for the coaches of LPL. It's really hard for you to play against WDG. Hey, what are the WDG team talking about? Why are they collectively watching the assistant coach?"
Lin Mi's cheeks were flushed at this moment. If they were not on the stage, he would definitely kick Rong Zezhou.
Just after they put on their headphones, Rong Zezhou suddenly said, "Xiaomi, I want to play with you in the world competition."
Lin Mi didn't think much about it, and just agreed: "Okay, okay, then you have to carry well in this game and take me to the World Championship."
Unexpectedly, Rong Zezhou said, "This way I can kiss you in front of the whole world."
Rong Zezhou's words made Lin Mi's mind go blank in an instant, and then her face turned red.
The WDG team members who were eager to watch the fun turned to watch the assistant coach who was teased in public by their mid laner, which made Lin Mi even more embarrassed.
Lin Mi cleared his throat and glared back fiercely: "If you can't be a god in the first game, you can go to the water dispenser in the next game!"
Rong Zezhou smiled and said, "Yeah, okay."
Roll sighed helplessly: "Mid laner, your face fell off, pick it up quickly."
Rong Zezhou put away his smile and glanced at Roll: "I'm going to use Leblanc this time."
Roll looked up at the sky speechlessly: "Take it, take it, take whatever you want. If you don't fight well, someone will punish you."
While we were chatting and laughing, the bp had already begun.
The WDG team, which won the coin toss before the game, had the first right to choose the side in the first game. They chose the blue side and gave the first three ban positions to DZG's jungler Mo Ka.
Qingtian: "It seems that WDG is going to play a four-protect-one system in this game. In order to ensure that the bottom lane is stable and not affected, they chose to ban the jungler with strong ganking ability first. This idea is correct."
DZG team coach ssr obviously thought so too. He was well prepared and directly ignored the strong heroes in the version and banned three support-type mid laners.
Galio, Card, and Taliyah.
If you target my jungler, I will target your mid laner.
If you want to play with four protecting one, I will ban all the heroes that the mid laner can protect, so that you can't support the bottom lane and the adc can be formed early.
The boat god, who was severely targeted, was not moved at all. He said that he had seen too many small scenes like triple ban of mid laner, so it had no impact, and he would pick the jungler first on the first floor.
Roll happily chose the best jungler for Zhuoyang from the remaining junglers, and then they saw that the DZG team directly picked Ezreal and Braum in the first two rounds.
"Hahaha, the two heroes picked by DZG team only have one meaning, that is, our bottom lane refuses to communicate in this game."
Bi Hai analyzed, "Ezreal and Braum's survivability is too strong. Even if WDG wants to forcefully help, it is difficult to kill them. They may even be counterattacked under the defensive tower."
Qingtian: "Braum is the king of level 1 teamfights. Getting this support is equivalent to preventing WDG from forcing a level 1 teamfight to create an advantage for the bottom lane. It seems that the DZG coaching staff has been prepared for this."
Lin Mi looked at the DZG team's choice and smiled softly: "Let's take Senna Tam."
When they were simulating the BP before the game, they had already guessed DZG team's choice and prepared countermeasures.
Do you all think that putting Ji Feng and Hua Shuran on the field will be a four-protect-one game?
No, they can also play the mid-jungle system.
Since the DZG team is so afraid of their advantage in the bottom lane and comes up with such a conservative choice, they will take advantage of the situation and choose Senna Tam to see who can survive longer.
The Tam who is last-hitting will be very tanky in the early and mid-game. Can a scraping ADC like Ezreal be able to beat him?
"Hey hey hey, WDG didn't even play four protecting one!"
Bi Hai exclaimed, "Both teams are passing the ball to the top, mid and jungle. However, the top laner of the DZG team is a warrior hero, but Hai Ge is better at playing tanks. Can he handle the special?"
Qingtian: "You are just following your impression. This season, Hai Ge has played many DPS top laners, and ADC top laners like Lucian and Skateboard Shoes have been quite effective."
Before they could finish their words, they saw that the DZG team banned Lucian and Skateboard Shoes in the second round, and then chose Crocodile on the fourth floor.
The hero Crocodile will not lose no matter which warrior he meets in the top lane, so he is a very good choice.
Then, in the fourth hand, WDG team locked in a Quinn.
Quinn is the most classic crocodile counter hero, a model of long-armed opponents beating short-armed ones, but he is a hero that Hai Ge has never used in all his many years of professional career.
Even in the version when Quinn was the most popular, Hai Ge had never chosen this hero, but he actually picked him in the first game on the stage of the finals.
"Hey, brother is also making progress,"
Brother Hai smiled with a smile on his face, "Gas can play Senna, if I can't play Quinn, wouldn't it be too embarrassing?"
Rong Zezhou chuckled, then said, "Bring me a Victor."
Come on, come on, pick up a hero you haven't played before and see who is the worst.
