Chapter 505

~6 min read 1,163 words

If there were still people who didn't believe that films could make money before, now the LoL official promise of a 1 million US dollar reward directly overturned everyone's cognition.

"One million US dollars belongs to me!"

"I'm going to sign up!"

"Even if I can't get first place, I have to go join in the fun."

"I heard that teams that make it into the top eight all have rewards."

"Looking for teammates online!"

E-sports culture abroad was much more mature compared to domestic.

Seeing the high prize money for LoL, they signed up for the competition at the first opportunity.

Among them, there was no lack of many famous e-sports teams, such as SK, SKT, Evil, and domestic teams WE, IG, and EHOME.

Besides famous e-sports teams, there were countless individual teams participating in their own names.

There were nearly 1,000 teams that signed up globally on the first day.

The second day even broke through 3,000 teams.

When LoL started to become popular globally, many free teams also emerged domestically.

Many people who had never been in contact with LoL started to join LoL because of this grand event, becoming new players of the game.

Because there were many participating players from various countries, provocative remarks from European and American countries soon appeared on the internet.

On international forums, post after post discriminating against Chinese players emerged one after another.

"Yellow-skinned monkeys are like apes in both intelligence and physical strength; victory belongs to the US team"

"Suggest canceling the competition qualification for Asians"

"Yellow-skinned people who can only show off in War"

"This is a new journey; you won't have such good luck again"

This ignited the anger of Chinese players.

Originally, they didn't understand how playing e-sports could win glory for the country, but now they understood.

E-sports is also a competition of brainpower and physical strength.

If foreigners were really allowed to take away the grand prize in the competition, then Chinese people would be ridiculed by foreigners in terms of brainpower.

Previously in 2005 and 2006, the WE team had managed to win two championships; if Chinese people suffered a defeat in this global LoL battle, they would definitely be mocked internationally.

They couldn't even win the championship in a game they made themselves.

Many e-sports geniuses started to take the initiative to contact the Mo Mo Team, hoping to join the team and fight for the country.

Chen Mo handed all matters over to Brother Ma to handle, while he himself stayed in the film crew to film with peace of mind.

He knew that after this global competition ended, the market valuation of LoL would increase by several times.

At the same time, the assets of the Communications Group would also rise.

All of this required a harvesting process; Chen Mo wasn't in a hurry.

"Brother Mo, My Love from the Star is about to wrap up; should we prepare to pack our things?"

Xu Xiaofeng was a bit reluctant to leave.

How good it was in the My Love from the Star film crew; she could see Chen Mo playing the handsome Professor Do every day.

Especially when Chen Mo occasionally put on glasses.

That sense of contrast could always make a group of girls scream.

"It's about time; you should prepare."

Chen Mo nodded.

He didn't have any special thoughts about the film crew; he just treated it as an ordinary film being shot.

"All camera crews, prepare!"

When Chen Mo had rested enough, the director had already started preparing to film the last few segments.

The scene here was the segment where Cheon Song-yi learns that Professor Do is about to fly back to his own planet.

"Great, the actors are very into the role, especially the way her eye sockets are red; it's like she can cry at any time, and her eyes are also very on point—it's this kind of reluctant gaze!"

As soon as Jun Ji-hyun came out, the director was very satisfied.

Others were also startled by Jun Ji-hyun's acting skills.

This was the scene where she was in her best state; the staff members watching from the side were almost about to get into the scene along with Jun Ji-hyun.

"What's wrong? Did you develop feelings from filming and can't bear to part with me?"

Chen Mo gave a wicked smile, wanting to tease Jun Ji-hyun.

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words were spoken, Jun Ji-hyun burst into tears, giving Chen Mo a start.

Fortunately, he was facing away from the lens now; the camera could only capture Jun Ji-hyun, not him.

"Don't cry; others will think I bullied you in a while."

He hurriedly comforted Jun Ji-hyun in a low voice.

Chen Mo was very helpless; he was just making a casual joke—was it worth crying over?

"I don't want to be separated from you."

It was unclear whether Jun Ji-hyun was talking to Chen Mo or reciting her lines.

There was only Chen Mo's reflection in her eyes, a pair of eyes that were very affectionate.

"That's the gaze! Zoom in quickly!"

"Very good! Cut!"

The director was very happy.

He hadn't expected this shot to pass so quickly; he had originally thought Jun Ji-hyun would need to brew more emotions for a while.

As a result, after the director shouted cut, everyone realized something was wrong.

Good grief, the filming was already over, and Jun Ji-hyun was still looking at Chen Mo with that affectionate gaze.

"Brother Mo, could it be that Jun Ji-hyun has taken a fancy to you? I'm familiar with this gaze; the gazes of those actresses looking at you are all like this."

Xu Xiaofeng looked at Jun Ji-hyun and whispered into Chen Mo's ear.

It was too common for actresses to become infatuated with Chen Mo while filming with him; Xu Xiaofeng was instead unfazed by it.

At night, Chen Mo was preparing to sleep when he heard a knock on the door outside.

"Come in."

He had originally thought it was Xu Xiaofeng coming to find him for work.

Unexpectedly, when the door was pushed open, it was Jun Ji-hyun wearing a nightgown.

"Can... can I sleep with you?"

Jun Ji-hyun bit her lip, her hair slightly scattered on her chest, revealing what was faintly visible inside.

She was actually a relatively traditional woman, but she also knew that if she didn't seize the opportunity this time, she would have even fewer chances to see Chen Mo in the future.

So no matter what tonight, she had to come find Chen Mo.

After speaking, Jun Ji-hyun realized her words were too direct; a fair face turned crimson, and even the skin on her body became pink.

Originally, Jun Ji-hyun belonged to the very beautiful and glamorous type of beauty; she was a rare actress who gathered both purity and sexiness in herself.

At this moment, her pitiful appearance was indeed enough to make one's heart itch.
