MTL - As a Captain, You Must Be Cold-Chapter 5
Yu Zhaohan's first live broadcast went very smoothly, both in terms of popularity and rewards, he dominated the charts that day. Yu Zhaohan himself was also very satisfied—forget it, he only said less than a hundred words in a live broadcast, and he continued to be online.
Live broadcast, so delicious.
Old Tan saw the reward income from his backstage, his facial features blurred with excitement, and he was relieved after being pinched by Cheese a few times. He grabbed Yu Zhaohan's hand and said solemnly: "Shine, if you are rich, don't forget each other."
Yu Zhaohan said indifferently: "Not at all."
"Why not! You've only been live streaming for two hours, and the reward after sharing is enough to buy a car!"
"You know, what I care about is not money." Yu Zhaohan said calmly, "I'm not interested in money, I've never touched money."
Cheese's eyes sparkled with admiration: "Captain, you have the temperament of the richest man, so amazing!"
On Saturday, the finals of the "Destination" International Invitational Tournament started at 8:00 pm local time in Los Angeles, which happened to be 12:00 noon in Beijing time.
Los Angeles is too far away, and Yu Zhaohan can only watch the finals in the live broadcast room like most players this time. In order to create an atmosphere for watching the game, Lao Tan ordered a bunch of food and specially prepared red wine for Yu Zhaohan. After that, he called everyone out of the room and watched the game together on the big-screen TV in the living room.
Before the game, the four domestic brother teams cheered for the IPL on the official blog, and Lao Tan also sent blessings on behalf of R.H.
[Guangzhou zc: When you only have one goal, the whole world will give in for you. Beijing IPL E-sports Club]
[Hangzhou dsd: It will be the top of the mountain, and you can see all the mountains and small ones at a glance. Beijing IPL E-sports Club]
[Chongqing eau: When you come back, I invite you to eat hot pot ~ Beijing IPL e-sports club]
[Shanghai R.H: IPL rush! 】
Cheese was a little disgusted: "Why is our style of painting different from the other three? It's uneducated and uninspired."
Lao Tan scratched his head: "Then you think of a better one, and I'll change it?"
Yu Zhaohan said: "This is very good."
It's gimmicky, what to change. If he came to post on Weibo, he wouldn't even give that exclamation point.
The captain had already spoken, and Cheese curled his lips, not daring to complain anymore, and silently swiped Weibo. His Weibo homepage is full of topics related to the finals. Suddenly, he paused between his fingers:
[Xiaoyu vomits bubbles: Please, please, it is really important to Xiaoyu that the Chinese team wins the championship. 】
Cheese has mixed feelings.
Is Xiaoyu really a fan of the IPL... not necessarily, as long as it is a normal domestic player, it should hope to win the IPL.
Lu Youshan stared at the screen, and said: "The game is about to start, everyone put away their phones, watch the game carefully, and write a replay summary for me later."
"It's not that fast, and there's still an opening performance." Cheese said so, but obediently put away his phone, "Coach, which team do you like?"
Lu Youshan told the truth: "In terms of strength on paper, IPL is not yet Lawman's opponent. Lawman this season is too scary."
Lawman is a team of mixed nationalities. The coaching team believes that whoever is good can buy whoever is worth money, and whoever is good can get nationality is not a problem. They have formed a dream team recognized by the entire league. The dream team has two Americans, one Chinese and one Korean. Each position is singled out, and the statistics are the top three in the league.
The fans knew in their hearts that Lawman had a greater chance of winning. Many fans have inoculated themselves in advance: It is not easy to reach the final of the IPL, as long as it is not 4-0, just scold me, don't bring their parents to scold, thank you for your cooperation.
The opening performance is over and the contestants enter the arena. The IPL was the first to enter the arena. Although there were screams at the scene, it was obviously from a small number of people. The number of players who can go to Los Angeles to support domestic teams is limited.
The boys in dark blue uniforms took their seats one by one—the captain of the IPL, the spear position, nurse Xu, and Timeless.
It seems that Xu's old stage fright has not been overcome, and the poor child's lips are white with tension. Timeless sat on his side, propping his forehead with one hand, chatting with his teammates sitting next to him for some unknown reason. When the camera was aimed at him, he didn't even notice. It was his teammates who reminded him, so he turned to face the camera and waved casually with a smile.
The commentator said: "Xu's condition doesn't seem to be as good as in the semi-finals, and he looked a little nervous; Timeless is as relaxed as usual."
Yu Zhaohan disagreed.
Based on his many years of pretentious experience, he seriously doubts that Timeless is just pretending—the heart rate of elementary school students must be more than 80 now.
When Lawman entered the arena with the team's theme song, the audience erupted into overwhelming cheers, which was ten times stronger than when he entered the arena in IPL.
Real home field advantage on earth.
The commentary began to introduce every player on the field. In addition to the four IPL players, the commentary also highlighted Lawman's spear, Tide.
"Fans in China should be familiar with Tide. He was R.H's substitute last season, and he moved to the Western Division at the beginning of this year. Now he has secured the starting position of Lawman..."
Seeing his former teammates appear on the stage, Lu Youshan's mouth became a line. Cheese pretended not to see, and swiped his phone with his head down. Old Tan couldn't help but looked at Yu Zhaohan, secretly observing Yu Zhaohan's expression.
I saw Captain Beauty with her slender eyelashes hanging down, holding the red wine glass in an elegant posture and shaking it gently. He had a deep expression, not knowing what he was thinking. Noticing his gaze, he raised his eyes casually: "Why?"
Old Tan hurriedly laughed: "It's okay, it's okay—how is your wine? I specially chose a bottle of 82 years old for you."
Article 9 of "Pretentiousness Code": When evaluating a thing, use more contradictory antonyms, and force and depth will come at once.
Yu Zhaohan withdrew his gaze, and took a sip of the red wine: "The color is deep, but it is refreshing and clear when you look closely. In terms of taste, it has both the sense of history and the fragrance of modern technology—not bad."
Old Tan: "Oh!"
The finals of the International Invitational Tournament officially started.
With a familiar home court and enthusiastic fans, Lawman showed their full strength as the North American devil king as soon as they came up, and almost won the first three rounds in a crushing situation.
The score of the two sides came to 3:0. The fans were ready to lose, but everyone held their breath in their hearts.
It's okay to lose, but you can't lose so ugly.
[Nizi, oh Nizi! 】
[What is the current level of IPL? There are only a few people, and they are beating nurses for everything you need. Can he fight? Do you know if you can't fight without this strength! 】
[I don't want any face from IPL! 】
Cheese said with a bitter face: "This is too fast, can you let us finish this meal."
Lao Tan asked Lu Youshan: "If you were the coach of the IPL, how would you adjust your tactics?"
Lu Youshan took a pen and frantically recorded in his notebook, he didn't have time to say anything. He only said four words: "For the command."
The IPL coach seems to have the same idea as Lu Youshan. In the fourth game, IPL would rather give up points than target the lawman's command to death. Without command to control the overall situation, the lawman obviously became chaotic, did not cooperate, and skill promiscuously, the IPL successfully recovered one point.
The score came to 3:1.
【New Year's Eve, New Year's Eve】
[Win one game without loss, win two games to earn blood]
[Apologize for what you said just now! 】
In the fifth game, the two sides played extremely fiercely. In the end, Timeless won the triple kill and narrowly won the IPL.
The score is 3:2.
【father! father! 】
[Timeless, yysd! 】
[Shanghai R.H and Guangzhou zc don’t call me, I’m afraid IPL will misunderstand [狗头][狗头]]
After chasing two points in a row, the IPL adapted to the atmosphere of the away game and regained the touch. The double cs of the IPL continued to be strong, and the sixth game was easily won.
The score was 3:3, both sides came to the match point at the same time.
【Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhss 】
[Help, I'm so nervous, so nervous! Come on, present my quick-acting heart-rescuing pill! 】
【If IPL wins, I will confess to my upper bunk! 】
In the final game, the loser chooses a map. Lawman chose a map with the lowest winning rate in IPL and replaced the original support.
Lu Youshan said: "Lawman chooses to change at this time, because he has to show his cards."
Yu Zhaohan said: "The ones who are replaced are offensive nurses, and they want to change their style of play."
At the beginning of the game, Lawman showed a completely different style from the previous ones, and the IPL was caught off guard. After the loss of point a, IPL decisively attacked the target point b and took the lead in occupying favorable terrain. In order to stick to point b, they paid a huge cost, including all the big operational moves, so that it was relatively difficult for them to win point b and attack point c, and they could only fight lawman purely with marksmanship.
All IPL members feel online, and they can also play back and forth with the lawman. When the team battle was stalemate, Tide, who was resurrected by lawman, took off with a grappling hook, flew in mid-air to get a headshot, and then fired two shots in a row after landing.
With three headshots, the assassin completed the harvest immediately.
The IPL group is wiped out.
Facing the grayed out screen, the four of them were so dazed that they had no time to react.
They watched the lawman's flag fly over the target point, but could do nothing.
This is the strength of a top sniper.
Thousands of miles away, in the blink of an eye.
Such a sniper was actually only Yu Zhaohan's substitute last year.
There was silence in the earphones, only the female voice of the mechanical system, like a countdown to death:
[Countdown 3, 2, 1... The target point c is occupied]
The big screen went black, and then turned on again in an instant:
【lawmanvictory】
The golden rain fell, the fireworks exploded outside the venue, and the audience screamed the names of every member of Lawman. All the members of Lawman rushed up, hugged each other, and together with the four people on the stage, they won the championship cup.
This is the moment of the champion.
No one knows how the second place exited. Even though the director finally gave the camera to the IPL side, the audience couldn't see their expressions hidden in the dark. When he was about to step off the stage, Timeless suddenly looked back.
Yu Zhaohan saw that the eyes of the arrogant elementary school student had lost their light, and it seemed... that he could no longer be arrogant.
"Ah, ah, it's just that short!" Cheese fell into a state of madness, crying into Lao Tan's arms, "It's just that short! Damn it!"
Old Tan hugged Cheese's head, gritted his teeth and said, "It's been eight years, and I haven't won the championship in the all-Chinese class once. The Koreans are going to say that four Chinese can't win the championship. The bullshit."
Lu Youshan gulped down a bottle of beer, his eyes were red: "I'll go back and replay."
"Originally, the chances of winning were not great, but playing like this is considered an extraordinary performance." Yu Zhaohan calmly sipped his red wine, "This season is completely over, don't think too much, work hard next year."
Yu Zhaohan returned to his room and closed the door calmly.
He changed into a set of his favorite pajamas, climbed into bed, wrapped himself in a quilt, and made a video call.
The video was connected, and a face similar to Yu Zhaohan's eyebrows and eyes appeared on the screen, with a caring and gentle tone: "What's the matter, baby, why are you wrapping yourself up in a ball of anger again...Did you lose the game?"
Yu Zhaohan had a sore nose: "Mom—"
The heat of the finals lasted for several days, and IPL players and coaches took turns to be on the hot search.
【When does the tide change nationality? When does the tide change nationality】
【It’s not necessary, it’s Chao Chao’s own ability to be bought by the Great Devil King of North America. 】
[Why does the lawman only buy Tide and not Shine—is Shine too lazy? 】
【The most exciting is Xu, I really don't know how he got into the starting lineup. Timeless can't even move it even if it kills you】
[Come on, Timeless only played one game, which is incomparable to Lawman's assassin. The underage brother is still too young and has little experience in competitions, so I can only say that the future is promising]
On behalf of R.H, Lao Tan sent a condolence call to the IPL manager. The IPL manager said that they were still alive and were just about to transfer planes in Shanghai. Before they died, they wanted to invite all R.H members to have a meal and thank them for their contribution to the friendship between China and South Korea.
The season has just ended, and everyone is not very busy. Old Tan readily agreed: "Okay, we will determine the location."
The runner-up also has a prize of 5 million US dollars. It is really inappropriate not to have a good meal in the IPL.
In the end, Lao Tan chose Huaiyang cuisine for a family with a four-figure per capita. He even watched the video of the restaurant, and he confirmed that this restaurant has an elegant environment and exquisite dishes, which is very suitable for their beautiful captain.
However, their beautiful captain said: "You go, I won't go."
Cheese asked in surprise, "Why? It's the IPL's treat, and they don't eat for nothing."
That's right, that's it, continue to persuade him not to stop.
Yu Zhaohan: "I don't like excitement."
Even Lu Youshan, who also didn't like the hustle and bustle, persuaded: "Whether you eat for nothing is secondary, don't you want to talk about the finals with the IPL?"
Yu Zhaohan thought for a while, with an expression of being persuaded: "Okay."
The other two of R.H are still in their hometown, and the last ones to go to the appointment are the four of them.
The restaurant is decorated in Jiangnan style, with small bridges, flowing water and rockery. It's been a long time since the R.H. boss has seen this kind of scene.
The R.H group of four followed the waiter and walked in, when Yu Zhaohan suddenly stopped: "You go in first."
Cheese: "What about you?"
"I have something to do."
Cheese asked curiously, "What's the matter, Captain?"
Yu Zhaohan's tone suddenly turned cold: "Are you sure you want to control me?"
Yes, he is fierce, but that's what the cold and cold male lead always does when he's impatient.
Sorry Cheese, hope you understand - but you're annoying too.
Sure enough, Cheese was dissuaded by the fierce captain and hurried away with the others.
Yu Zhaohan walked quickly towards the rockery where no one seemed to be. After making sure that no one was around, he leaned on the rockery and bent his noble waist. Just when his hands were about to touch his sneakers, he suddenly heard a voice behind him: "Shine?"
Yu Zhaohan froze and looked back.
Shi Du was wearing an IPL team uniform, a baseball cap, and a mobile phone in his hand. He must have just finished making a call. The boy's air pressure was a little low, and he looked in a bad mood, and the look in his eyes was less entertaining than the last time we met.
You must have been beaten up in Los Angeles, you must have been beaten, you must have been severely punished, you stinky brother.
Yu Zhaohan straightened his body slowly, and said "hmm" as if nothing had happened.
"What are you doing..." Shi Du looked from Yu Zhaohan's face to his shoes, "Oh."
Yu Zhaohan:?
What is Shi Du looking at his shoes for? The sudden realization of "oh" has several meanings.
Did Shi Du see it? Impossible, he hides so deeply, it's impossible for Shi Du to see it.
Yu Zhaohan's mind was overwhelmed, but what he said was just a dull sentence: "What are you 'oh'?"
Shi Du raised his chin: "Your shoelaces are loose."
Yu Zhaohan felt himself alive again. To deal with such a small situation, he thinks he can handle it with ease, and he can even launch a counterattack: "You observe so carefully, do you want to help me?"
Shi Du looked at him, gave a light snort, turned around and left.
Very well, that's what he wanted.
Although the plan worked, Yu Zhaohan didn't dare to take any more risks. He cautiously found the bathroom, closed the door in the cubicle, and... pulled up the little sock that had slipped to the bottom of his foot.
At this moment, he felt like a new life.
