Chapter 124
Mu Wanwan and Pei Lu were next to each other. She was so sleepy that she planned to sleep first even if she only had two hours of flight time.
Before putting on the blindfold, she glanced at Park Jae-joon who was sitting next to them.
The other party's hands were still wrapped in gauze, which was very conspicuous.
Everyone wisely didn't ask him about his hand injury just now, but it seems that Park Jae-joon really can't appear in the finals.
This time, she didn't fall asleep at all, and not long after she closed her eyes in a daze, she reached her destination.
It was the competition staff who came to pick up the plane. Because of the rules, they could not find a hotel to stay in privately, and they had to follow the competition team for all itineraries.
"The hotel arranged for you over there is very good, don't worry." The receptionist said, "My name is Liu Xi, this is my phone number, please remember, if you have any questions about food, drink, accommodation and transportation, please call me at any time. I'm on 24 hours a day."
Brother Yang asked: "Have you applied for one more room for us before?"
"Of course." Liu Xi said, "After all, it's a female player, and the team is also very attentive. Not only did they arrange the room, but they also arranged a big-bed room, which is more comfortable than other people's rooms."
"..." Mu Wanwan didn't think this special treatment was a good sign.
Sure enough, as soon as the qualifiers for the global finals ended, they were notified that they were shooting a promotional video the day after tomorrow, and they asked her if she could wear a skirt, saying that she wanted to shoot a contrasting clip. Turn around and walk on the field in your uniform.
Before Mu Wanwan could speak, Pei Lu refused: "No."
"Why?? As long as she wants, we can even let her finish the promo." The person over the phone expressed confusion.
"No need, just follow the normal shooting, she has to wear a team uniform."
In the end, it broke up, and Pei Lu hung up the phone directly.
"You too, if you don't want to, don't want to. Say it well, why do you hang up?" Brother Yang said with a headache, "That's the competition after all."
"As a condition at the end of the promotional video, the team members are required to wear short skirts, and there is such a team." Pei Lu's tone was light, and he could tell that he was really unhappy.
"No, what do you mean?" Xiaoroubao said, "Did he plan to give us the opening or ending of what he said just now?"
Wood hummed: "Obviously yes."
"Why? We are the LPL champions, we don't give the opening and ending? Who is it? MA?" Brother Hu was also dissatisfied.
"The day after tomorrow, let's see how it's allocated." Brother Yang said, "No wonder they haven't given me the timetable for the promotional film."
"It shouldn't be given to MA. After all, MA didn't even make it to the finals this time, so it's even more impossible for GGX." Pei Ludao, "Maybe it's the opening of THK and the ending of YSP."
The day before yesterday, GGX successfully won the third seed in the qualifiers.
Brother Yang tutted: "If that's the case, then let's go back, and they will fight a civil war in Korea."
On the day of the filming of the promotional video, they finally met the players of the Korean team, as well as blond e-sports players from other countries.
The promotional video is not long, and many people may only be able to watch the show, but the gathering of several big teams seems to be quite powerful.
Except for GGX, heard that some members of the team are not acclimatized to the environment and cannot come over today.
Those foreign players were very interested in Mu Wanwan. As soon as they saw them coming, two people immediately greeted her.
Just as Mu Wanwan was about to speak, Pei Luxian smiled and said softly: "She cannot speak English, if u like I can translate for u."
The two foreign friends looked at each other, nodded immediately, turned around and left.
Mu Wanwan: "Who said I can't speak English? I've passed CET 4 anyway!"
Pei Lu pretended to be surprised: "Really, so powerful?"
"..." He must have done it on purpose!
"You are here." The staff stepped forward, "Come on, put on your makeup."
He walked along with a puzzled look on his face, "Are you sure Wan can't wear a skirt? It's actually nothing, the skirt is not too short, it reaches the knees. I heard from the person in charge that it can be put at the end of the film, it's very handsome..."
This staff member is Chinese, and of course he wants the team from his own national division to win the end of the promotional video - how handsome it must be!
"No, my legs are so ugly that I don't wear them." Mu Wanwan waved her hands and started chatting with him, "Is it hard to work in a foreign country?"
The staff was stunned for a while, and then said: "It's actually okay, where is it not hard to work? You must cheer for the Wan God competition, I like you very much!"
Pei Lu looked sideways slightly.
The staff immediately changed their words: "I like TS very much! I even bought tickets for the scene! There are many Chinese e-sports fans here, and we will go to cheer you on when the time comes!"
Pei Lu nodded: "Thank you, we will fight well."
Brother Yang asked: "How many shots do we have now?"
"Four."
"Four?" Brother Yang was angry, "We have five players, two substitutes, and only four shots??"
"Well...the substitute didn't arrange the shots because he didn't play much, and Brother Hu and Mu Tou...were together in one shot." The staff said, "The opening and ending are THK and YSP."
Pei Lu was a prophecy.
"It's too much to deceive people, right?" Brother Hu and Mu Tou didn't react when the meat buns exploded first, "Did they make a mistake? Or did they do it on purpose?"
He was so angry that his voice didn't consciously amplify, causing the people next to him to look at him frequently.
Pei Lu stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Calm down buns."
"Can't calm down, Xiaolu, aren't you angry?"
"Qi." Pei Ludao, "It's useless, I'll think of a way."
"What's wrong?" The MA team just arrived not long ago. They stayed in the same hotel, and the car came right in front of them. Xiao walked over and asked, "Is there not much footage?"
"Yeah, there are seven of us, only four shots!" Xiaoroubao said, "The substitute didn't play much, so don't give it a shot. Isn't it too much to combine the shots of Huzi and Mumu?"
"You are only four?" Xiao opened his mouth wide.
"Also? What do you mean? You four too?"
"Yeah, and Jae Jun didn't have a single shot, it's too much. Brother Cheng was still losing his temper just now. Brother Hao said it's okay, it doesn't matter, it's okay..." Xiao said, "You know, Brother Hao doesn't care too much about that."
Brother Hu and Mu Tou have been silent, because they know why they didn't give them a shot - because they didn't have a lot of wonderful actions in the summer split, if it wasn't for the last wave of Baozi, I'm afraid they can only take three shots and say indefinite.
Although they knew that this was an unfair distribution of shots, they were so upset that they didn't say anything.
Seeing the team members like this, Mu Wanwanhuo also came up: "It's one thing to care, but it's another thing to be fair."
Brother Cheng also walked over, and he went straight to Brother Yang: "I heard that this time the person in charge of this is a Korean who likes THK very much. I have a reasonable doubt that he gave our shots to THK."
Xu Hao was just behind him, and said lightly, "It doesn't matter...the filming ends early. It's just a few shots, what does it matter."
"It's not about the camera." Brother Yang took out his mobile phone. "I don't want domestic audiences to watch the commercials and see the camera from other countries' players."
The two team managers negotiated and left the set, and each contacted the management of their own teams to go.
And Pei Lu took Mu Wanwan's hand and went to the North American team.
Both Xiaoroubao and Xiao were very curious, so they raised their legs and followed, just in time to hear Pei Lu's fluent English.
The two listened for five minutes, but they didn't understand anything. They just watched the expressions of the North American players ranging from kindness to surprise to righteous indignation. Then, the team manager on the North American side also hurriedly took the phone and went out.
When Pei Lu and the others came back, Xiaoroubao quickly asked, "Xiaolu, what did you tell them when you went up?"
"I didn't say anything." Pei Lu said, "Let's go, pack up and go back to the training game. I'm afraid I won't be able to shoot today."
"Ah?" Xiaoroubao's eyes widened, "Why?"
As soon as he finished asking, he saw Brother Cheng coming back, and then the team members with MA left.
Brother Yang came back relatively late. At that time, the North American team was almost gone, and only the Korean team was sitting and playing with their mobile phones: "Let's go, pack up, this thing can't be filmed today... Hey, what about the North American team? ?"
Mu Wanwan smiled and said, "Just now, Xiaolu Shen went over and told them that our foreign teams only have four shots, and the length of the shots is still short. He said that the person in charge gave all the shots to THK... so they were also angry. , just left."
Brother Yang: "...Awesome."
"Can't make it? Why?" On the other end, Brother Hu, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke up. He didn't want to participate in the previous topic, so now he was stunned and said hurriedly, "Actually, four shots will do. I don't care about this... we can't be without our team in the promotional video, right?"
The wood also stood still: "Yes."
Pei Lu stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Not only us, North America and MA have left. They can't make this promotional video. Don't worry, you won't be wronged. Let's go."
Sure enough, on the same day, the filming of the promotional film was announced to be cancelled for rectification.
It wasn't until two days later that the foreign social networking site's team posted an apology blog, and people in China didn't know that their team was almost bullied again, and they all scolded the person in charge under the comments.
Later, a second statement was issued, informing everyone that the former general manager was indeed a fan of THK. All of this was entirely a personal act. Several Korean employees once said to him that the arrangement was unreasonable, but all of them were rejected and did not exist. The problem that the competition discriminates against foreign teams.
In the end, the general manager was eventually fired as a matter of course.
It only took half a day to shoot the promotional video, and only one person could appear at the beginning and end of a team to demonstrate fairness. The original intention of the team was to let Mu Wanwan take a scene with Secret in the evening, but she was rejected by Mu Wanwan herself. The final arrangement was the top laner of the No. 1 team in North America, HL, and Xu Hao in the opening shot. Pei Lu and Secret were at the end, and Mu Wanwan was the second-to-last as the finale.
The late stage of the promotional video was well done. Although Mu Wanwan was not wearing a skirt, the makeup artist loosened her hair and painted her a very delicate light makeup.
In the shot, the right corner of her mouth was slightly raised, revealing the white teeth inside, her eyes were disdainful and arrogant, and there was a crimson special effect spreading out behind it. The coolest smile in the film, coupled with the cumbersome little braid in her hair, brings out all the femininity that sets her apart from the rest of the contestants.
After the promotional video was released, it immediately became a hot search in China.
At that time, the players were all training, and no one had time to take care of them. After a short conflict in the previous promotional film, the players in several divisions were already familiar with each other. With the championship effect, it was easy for TS to make an appointment for the training game. .
The location of the training game was on the second floor of the hotel. The competition team was very rich and arranged a lot of rooms. Each team already had its own training room, and the network inside was fully equipped.
Just finished the training match with HL, Mu Wanwan was about to go upstairs to take a shower, when the phone screen suddenly lit up, it was an unfamiliar number.
[Hello, I'm the agent of XX Entertainment Company, is this Miss Mu? I saw your promo video and I think you have the potential to be a star! In addition to your own traffic, your development in the entertainment circle will definitely be better than in the e-sports circle. After all, the e-sports circle... Our company has a lot of resources, and we can also give you the best contract in terms of contracts. Ideas, you can always contact me and we can talk in detail. (I don't mean to look down on the e-sports circle)]
Mu Wanwan burst out laughing.
Pei Lu looked sideways: "What are you laughing at?"
Mu Wanwan shook her head and knocked on her phone: "It's nothing."
[Hello, you may not be interested in me, but the photographer or the staff who repairs the video. After I remove my makeup, I can try to shoot a ghost movie.In addition, although the current e-sports circle does not make money from the entertainment industry, the prospects are still considerable.And I checked, your company seems to be quite unknown, if I really have that idea, can you pay the liquidated damages?(I don't mean to look down on your company)]
