Views:

Everyone drank a lot that night, but no one was drunk. Maybe it was only when they were sad that they would get drunk when they drank. When everyone was happy, the more they drank, the more spirited they were.

They all answered a lot of phone calls that night. Relatives, friends, classmates, and some people who don't usually communicate with each other sent their blessings. Weibo was already quarreled by fans when they won the championship. After a few days, the entire network was swiped by the news that the Maple Moon team won the championship.

The topic of #Maple Moon Team Wins the First World Championship for China# is loud enough, that is, compatriots who don’t understand e-sports want to click on it, and the article inside is even more brilliant. The "City of the City" World Championship has been blank for six years. Fengyue's victory is not only the first time for the Chinese team to win the championship, but also the end of the Korean team's six consecutive championship history!

In addition, he also wrote about the Chinese team's experience of losing again and again in the hands of South Korean strong teams.

At the end of the article, it was also predicted that Fengyue won the championship, and the next year's "City of Despair" world finals are likely to be held in China, which will be the first time China has hosted the world e-sports competition.

E-sports fans were very excited about this, and ordinary netizens were also proud of several children whose average age was in their early 20s.

Stars in the film and television industry, celebrities from all walks of life, and anchors, "Maple Moon" has become a well-known team overnight. The seven team members are no different from the Olympic champions who have won glory for the country. They are all Chinese heroes!

The old friends in the e-sports circle sent their blessings one after another—

V Thunder - Thor: It's really not easy to go all the way, good brothers, you are our pride! [picture]

V Ares-Goddess: The flower of success, people only admire her current bright and beautiful, but her buds were soaked in the tears of struggle and sprinkled with blood of sacrifice. [picture]

V Luolie: Congratulations to Fengyue for becoming the world champion! Also admire the players of WG! This final between the Chinese teams is more exciting than any previous one!

V Chenxi-Team Tao: Congratulations to Fengyue for winning the championship! Waiting for your triumph!

V WG-WeGo: In tonight's game, every member of WG did their best. I am proud to have such a group of players. I have no regrets in this game! To see the Chinese national flag raised in the center is the biggest wish of me and all the team members! Congratulations to Fengyue for winning the championship!

The netizens were even more excited and went crazy with dual screens. This night, this Weibo was occupied by the e-sports circle.

The animation of the Fengyue team's victory, the wonderful replay of the game, the handshake after the game, the cheers of the audience, the appearance of the three commentators jumping up from their chairs... Even the Maple Moon team members found it interesting to watch.

It's just that the topic is chatting, and the cod party is restless again.

After Fengyue won the last team battle, Shen Huai pushed open the door of the soundproof room and rushed over to hug Song Xueyang despite the referee's obstruction.

Topics: # Yushen Feipu Xue Shen#, #雪花糖#.

The cod party was so excited that they not only magnified the picture of Song Xueyang touching Shen Huai's head, but also made a peach heart special effect for the two of them on the moving picture.

[Ah! my cod! ! What kind of candy is this, it's so delicious! Snow God also touched Yushen's head!]

[Snow God's expression is definitely gentle to lovers! Seeing that pampering smile, my heart is beating wildly!]

[With so many people, Yushen rushed towards Snow God and hugged him so tightly [funny].]

[Can you take care of the stars beside you? He is still crying! Can you just hug each other like this?]

[What kind of fairy CP is making candy every day! I also want to be a cod party with food!]

Netizens looked at the actions of the two over and over again, and analyzed that they were so eloquent that they could see a hundred kinds of deep meanings with a small gesture.

Hai Xing initially swiped the team's winning Weibo, but unknowingly fell into the world of Cod CP and couldn't extricate himself.

How are you so smart? How is that right? Why don't you see it when you get along with each other day and night

Starfish looked at everyone's analysis and unknowingly gave a like.

It's over, the cods are going crazy now.

#星哥 Likes the Cod Party Weibo, it is suspected to be a real hammer! #

Hit your sister!

Starfish's face was uglier than crying.

"What should I do?" He looked at Song Xueyang and Shen Huai with a sad face.

The two didn't show too much affection after they made it public, as if there was no difference from before, but there was an extra layer of fetters, and Hai Xing didn't feel any discomfort. Both of them were his good friends and important teammates. .

Zhou Jing said calmly, "You are too careless."

Shi Yi also nodded, "You will cause trouble for the captain."

Even Zhou Jing said that to him, Hai Xing was even more sad, and wished to chop up his own bitch.

The two parties didn't respond. Shen Huai's face was slightly drunk, and he casually leaned on the back of the chair like a quiet and somewhat dull doll, "It doesn't matter, let them talk."

Hai Xing said anxiously, "Shen Huai, you are drinking too much! You two are not good in public now, especially since the team has just won the championship, the fans' impression of you will be reduced!"

It was rare for him to speak in such a straight-forward manner, making everyone laugh.

"Don't worry, no one will take it seriously." Song Xueyang said that the phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and smiled, "Here, the opportunity is here."

The caller was Chairman Hua of the China E-Sports Association, but when he hung up the phone, Song Xueyang said, "The International Competition Committee has decided that China will host the World Championship next season, because we won this honor, Chairman Hua. The venue of the game was set in Shanghai."

Everyone's eyes lit up, and then they cheered excitedly.

After Chairman Hua edited the news into Weibo and posted it online, the whole Internet was boiling, and the CPs of the Cod Party all stood aside. Everyone was proud of this honor.

Some people say that they can finally afford the tickets for the World Championships. Some people say that they must go to the venue next year. Some experts believe that this is an e-sports diplomacy. Hosting the World Championships in China is a way to spread Chinese culture, promote tourism, and bilaterally. Good opportunity for trade development.

The people of Fengyue didn't think so far. They only knew that they would be able to participate in the World Championships next year without leaving home, and for all Chinese teams, they would finally be able to enjoy the treatment of a local competition, without the fatigue of boats, water and soil. Dissatisfied, there are more fans cheering, and the results of the Chinese team will only get better and better!

Song Xueyang raised his glass for the last time, "Everyone's efforts this year are not in vain. Let's toast for the motherland to host the world finals next year!"

"cheers!"

Everyone was a little drunk when they went out, but they had never had a better drink than this time.

When he went back in the evening, Song Xueyang helped Shen Huai upstairs. He could see that Shen Huai was actually drunk, but just like when they first met, he would be more quiet and well-behaved when he was drunk. Maybe he was in the entertainment industry since he was a child. A learned instinct.

It's just that this time Song Xueyang didn't have the same scruples as when they first met. He gave him a simple shower, helped him go to bed, and covered him with the quilt. Shen Huai grabbed his hand and asked, "How is your hand?"

It was difficult for him to mention it in front of his teammates before, but in fact he was always worried.

Song Xueyang patted his head, "It's alright, rest early."

However, Shen Huai grabbed him, sat up, his eyes fell on him without blinking, as if he had woken up most of the time, "I didn't know how hard it was for professional players before, but now I've been playing for a year myself, and I'm with him again. You have been together for a year, don't you know how tired you are?"

He paused, lowered his head and said softly, "I don't want future games without you..."

Song Xueyang's heartstrings seemed to be tugged. He looked at Shen Huai's long eyelashes under the light, and his dark eyes stared at the two hands. That way.

Song Xueyang knew that he had to answer this question solemnly.

He stretched out his right hand to show Shen Huai, that hand was slender and beautiful, with larger knuckles than Shen Huai's, but it was just right, giving a feeling of generosity and reliability.

"It looks like an ordinary person, but after a long game, it will hurt. When you bend your wrist, your fingers will feel a little numb, and you will feel pain and numbness when you frequently read sniping during the game."

"what did the doctor say?"

"In the early stage of carpal tunnel syndrome, you can take some anti-inflammatory and painkillers when you are sick, try to keep your palms up when you sleep, and use kinesio tapes to assist stretching. I have asked the doctor, usually avoid keeping your hands in one position for a long time, and exercise more. It can guarantee normal performance during the game. He also taught me a set of rehabilitation exercises to show you."

Song Xueyang really did it, it looked a little childish, but Shen Huai took it very seriously.

Song Xueyang took him into his arms after doing it once, "Don't worry, I will pay more attention, and I will never let it worsen before you retire."

Shen Huai nodded, "We are going to retire together."

"Okay, I promise you." Song Xueyang patted him on the back and said softly, "I will do what I promise you."

Shen Huai finally felt at ease, and fell asleep not long after lying in Song Xueyang's arms.

The next day was the awards ceremony. The Fengyue people got up in the morning and started putting on makeup. Today is not only a very important day in their lives, but also represents the image of China. Everyone showed their best mental outlook.

Brother Kun finally reminded them of their schedule for today, "There will be interviews after the awards ceremony in the afternoon. You must pay attention to your words and deeds. If you don't know what you should say, don't say it, you know?"

Song Xueyang came over and held his shoulder, "Brother Kun, don't worry, everyone is even more nervous when you do this."

Brother Kun grumbled and walked away, "I'm more nervous than you guys!"

At the awards ceremony in the afternoon, they entered the venue an hour early, and the WG people also arrived. The two exchanged greetings. They couldn't help but feel happy when they thought that two Chinese flags would be raised above the South Korean flag tonight.

The people from the Rider team have also arrived. Compared with Fengyue and WG, who are beautiful, they are much more low-key. They are also the last one, and they don't seem to want to be disturbed too much.

Jin Chengjun nodded at them from a distance, as a greeting, and Shen Huai also nodded at him. The two were indeed rivals on the field, but they were still a little unfamiliar outside the field.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the award ceremony started on time, and the three winning teams sat at the front of the audience.

After the host gave a speech, he invited Mark, the official chief planner of the US game, who made a general comment on this season's World Championship.

"... The one that surprised me the most in this year's competition is undoubtedly the FM team," he pointed to Fengyue, blinked, and the audience immediately cheered.

"The combat style of the FM team is completely different from the common and expected players in the past. At the beginning of our design, the positioning of the sniper was to lurk in the dark to harvest, similar to the existence of assassins, but it can really do this. There are very few players, so in the adjustment of the sniper, we pay attention to his basic attack crit and skill CD again and again, so that he can stand out between the guns with good output ability and the mechanics of the ring dominance. Some of them don't look like each other."

"However, Snow's operation completely echoes our concept at the beginning of the design of the sniper profession. My companions and I have always hoped to see snipers who can beat the enemy from a thousand miles on the field, instead of using high-cost critical strikes. Damages close-range shooters. So in the future, the adjustment of snipers may focus more on long-range sniping. I also heard China's commentary saying, oh, can you cancel the skill reading? Of course! We have already thought of a very A great way to balance this, and of course Wing's assassin is also within the scope of our planned changes, we have seen your efforts, and we hope that the upcoming update will give you a satisfactory assassin!"

When netizens heard this, they all praised the American company He Niu Niu.

[Fuck, the official can do it this time! It's not that who is arrogant to cut who, but to strengthen it? !]

[Niuniu is the real boss! The sniper canceled the reading, tsk tsk, then my Snow God can't take off?]

[This means that the damage caused by snipers relying on long-range sniping will be higher in the future? Do players from other teams still survive?]

[I am more concerned about what happened to the assassin? Don't ask for reinforcement, just don't cut it, the generation version is cut into shi, if there is no Yu Shen, no one will play!]

[Is it the end of the world? Assassins actually want to strengthen? !]

[The professions of Snow God and Feather God have been strengthened, so how can others fight? Directly announce next year's champion!]

The words planned by the United States are undoubtedly good news for Fengyue. If the sniper can really cancel the reading, it can also reduce the burden on Song Xueyang's hand. As for the assassin, no matter how he changes it, it will not be worse than it is now.

After that, it was time for the awards. The three teams stepped onto the podium in turn. When Fengyue and everyone stepped up to the highest podium together, the flashing lights almost turned into a sea of light. The official chief planner of the game "City of Despair" personally Presenting awards to them, everyone took over the heavy trophy together, and the national anthem of the People's Republic of China was played at the venue.

The five-star red flag is rising. At this moment, all Chinese e-sports fans are overwhelmed with excitement. This is China's first world championship in six years, and it is the common dream of all game lovers!

Everyone in Maple Moon couldn't help but burst into tears when they saw the national flag raised in the center. The hard work and hard work along the way have all been rewarded the best at this moment - the world champion!

American game officials announced on the spot that the world finals of the S7 season will be held in Shanghai, China. Even though everyone has known the news for a long time, they can't help but cry out in madness.

Afterwards, the members of the championship team will have to give their acceptance speeches. Song Xueyang was the first to appear on the stage on behalf of the team, "Hello everyone, I'm Snow, Song Xueyang, the captain of the FM team. Our team was an idol team at the beginning of its establishment, just like you love it. It’s the same as the men’s and women’s teams. The team members are divided into two parts: interview and computer test. The team needs players with a good image to maintain their popularity among fans…”

Brother Kun listened dazedly below. Is this the acceptance speech he prepared? Don't say what you shouldn't say? !

But Song Xueyang's story obviously attracted the interest of the audience, "It's been like this since I took over the Maple Moon team. When I joined the team, I said that I would make Maple Moon a team with popularity based on strength. Fortunately, me and My players all have the same dream. This is my fifth year in charge of the team. My players and I finally realized our dream this year. How much we put in is not worth mentioning, because now I am I can finally stand here and say that Fengyue is the strongest team in the world, and as long as I am the captain of Fengyue for one day, this record will never be surpassed!"

The scene was silent for a second, Zhang Jiayan was the first to applaud, and then thunderous applause echoed throughout the venue.

Some people say that he is too crazy. He is lucky enough to get a victory and dare to think about winning streak. Some people say that he was carried away by the championship, but at this moment, everyone in Fengyue believes his words very much, because it is their last resort. The captain is the backbone of Maple Moon.

After Song Xueyang, Shen Huai came to power. After Song Xueyang's passionate oath, everyone thought that Shen Huai would also give a passionate speech. After all, he defeated Jin Chengjun twice and had no defeat in the arena PK. It was a world well-deserved. first.

But he was silent for five seconds after picking up the microphone, and then said in fluent and authentic English, "I have participated in many award ceremonies, but this is the first time I have come on stage to give an acceptance speech, and it is also the first time I have experienced it. Such joy."

"I would like to thank my father for his understanding and support that allowed me to become an e-sports player, to fight hard with my peers, and to find my true self, thank you. And me My teammates, I want to say that it is my most correct decision to join Fengyue and everyone as teammates, Qingshan will not change, and the friendship will last forever!"

Shen Nuo was watching the live broadcast in the lounge, Assistant Jin handed him a tissue, "They told you to go and watch the live broadcast, you have to come back."

Shen Nuo wiped her tears, "How can I have time?!"

Assistant Jin silently pumped a tissue for him, thinking that you are afraid of crying at the scene!

It was Zhou Ning who came on stage after Shen Huai. When he picked up the microphone, he looked straight at Guan He in the VIP audience area. He first briefly expressed his happiness and then said.

"Today, I would also like to thank one person, Guan He, the captain of the Xiaolang team. Without him, there would be no Zhou Ning standing here today."

"He brought me into the e-sports circle, made me a professional player, recommended me to Fengyue, made me have my own home, he made me look directly at my shortcomings, foster strengths and circumvent weaknesses, he taught me I seized the best opportunity to make a move and defeated the enemy with one move. He has been racing in the "City of Despair" for six years. He is the captain of the first three-consecutive team in the Chinese professional league, and the first world player in China. First, he told me that your current strength is comparable to that of a world-class swordsman player, but I know that no matter how hard I work, no matter how many enemies I defeat, he will always be the god of war that I can't catch up with, and he is in my heart. hero!"

There was a deafening applause at the scene, and those who blamed Guan He for the unsatisfactory performance of the Xiaolang team this year were also a little ashamed.

Guan He lost this game, but his contribution to Chinese e-sports is irreplaceable! What qualifications do they have to mock a veteran player

The guilt that had accumulated in the hearts of the Xiaolang team members for a long time finally disappeared. They didn't blame others for losing the game, but it was the most uncomfortable for the captain to be criticized by netizens for years of glory being wasted.

Tang Wenlang said with a smile, "Now you can finally announce your retirement. With what Vice Captain Zhou said, no one would dare to talk about it any more."

Guan He nodded lightly, his eyes looked at Zhou Ning on the stage across the crowd, Zhou Ning's eyes were firm, those clear and transparent eyes exuded the same dazzling brilliance as the person he was at the moment, which was also in his heart. The brightest light.
