Chapter 317
Inside the T1 base, which was originally laughing and talking, the atmosphere suddenly became dull.
"Really being looked down upon," Oner kneaded his finger bones after reacting, his tone a bit indignant.
Gumayusi complained even more uncomfortably: "What is Brother Beryl bragging about? Last year we clearly beat them for a whole season! It was only because of good luck at the end that they won once!"
Last year, DRX was a marginal team in the Spring and Summer Splits, and in the Summer Split, they barely reached the last fourth seed spot with a 3-2 win in the final life-and-death round of the "Bubble Tournament."
The record in the region was naturally quite average.
And if we really talk about it, Gumayusi, who also likes to talk big, is not weak at all compared to the 'Sunrise King' in terms of "talking tough" and "stiff mouth"!
The only difference is that he can often avoid the pursuit of boomerangs in the T1 team.
However, Keria muttered timidly next to him: "I have indeed been beaten by him many times..."
Zeus shrugged, but frankly opened his mouth and said: "Actually, what he said is not wrong, he said it's the World Championship, no matter how much you win before, it's useless if you lose in the World Championship."
"And, at least Ye has indeed beaten us many times."
Gumayusi was even more unhappy listening to the words of these two teammates: "Hey, hey, hey! How can you speak for the enemy, I believe we will definitely be able to take revenge in this World Championship!"
"Brother Xianghe! Tell me, am I right!"
Lee Xianghe glanced sideways at his nephew, and one look made the other person instantly quiet down.
He didn't answer, stood up and walked to his computer.
Then he said expressionlessly: "Let's prepare for tomorrow's game first."
The schedule of LCK and LPL is about the same, also a double-elimination format, and because the number of teams is small, the progress is two or three days faster than LPL.
Actually, T1 had already finished V5's schedule today a few days ago, defeating DK and advancing to the winner's bracket, and tomorrow they will face the winner's bracket opponent GEN, who also defeated HLE.
Although Lee Xianghe didn't say anything, it was as if he had said everything.
And at this time.
Ye Bo and Beryl, who had just finished the interview, were walking back to the backstage amidst the screams of the whole venue.
"Why are they so excited?" Beryl listened to the booing outside and was puzzled: "I said, is it really that explosive?"
Ye Bo spread his hands, looking innocent: "Actually, I have always been puzzled by this question, every time I feel that what I say is quite normal, but Clearlove always says I am the King of Explosions."
"That's it! What I said is the truth~~~"
"By the way, do we have to go to Beijing for the game the day after tomorrow, I have to get some Douzhi, tsk tsk, now it feels like it really has a taste."
The two Kings of Explosions walked back to the backstage to meet up with their teammates.
Then they prepared to return to the base next door to rest.
This is actually the biggest benefit of playing games at "home," which can save a lot of travel time flying back and forth, and can also maintain the best competitive state.
Like the JDG vs WBG match that will be held tomorrow, it will also be held at JDG's home in Beijing.
It's just that if JDG wins, and even if the final opponent is also JDG, then V5 will have to go to Beijing to participate—because the scale of JDG's Beijing venue is much larger than V5's Shenzhen venue, and the number of spectators it can accommodate is four or five times larger!
This is a helpless hard condition gap.
He Youjun has always had the idea of building and expanding the venue.
It's a pity that in Shenzhen, where every inch of land is worth an inch of gold, a big project like expanding the home venue is definitely not that simple, not to mention that V5's capital investment in building the team this year is already very huge... but after the Asian Games, perhaps there will be new changes.
After all, Shenzhen, where V5 is located, is a quite wealthy city.
And with V5's current results, it is very likely that like WE in Xi'an, they will receive funding and support from the local official government!
As for the intensity of support.
If they can achieve the achievement of leading the team to win the first Asian Games gold medal as the "core figure" of V5, the official significance that this honor can bring alone is unimaginable in terms of funding and support.
The Asian Games might not be that important to the audience who only care about "strength collision."
But the reality is.
The gold content and "actual significance" of the Asian Games in the country will definitely not be much smaller than the impact of military service exemption in LCK, and in some aspects, it will even be more important!
It is precisely because of this.
Until now, on the Asian Games list of the CN representative team, there is still only Ye Bo alone.
And because EDG was unexpectedly eliminated too early in the playoffs, the competitiveness ranking of the three people—jungle, ADC, and support—who were originally very hopeful, dropped significantly.
"Damn, Master Ye, Genshin Brother, your interview directly blew up the Korean network!"
Xun, sitting on the bus, turned his head to show his mobile phone screen: "Those who say you two want to start a regional war have all come!"
Ye Bo leaned over to look: "What the hell, how can it be that exaggerated?"
He took it and looked, and found that it was a repost from the Anti-League Bar, which moved the trends of the Korean network in real time.
【Ah, damn it! Arrogant CN people! We LCK ruled this game for five years before and didn't act this cocky! Now he's acting cocky!】
【Why should we listen to Ye? My T1 won't take this first seed today! Piss you off!!!】
【Heh, the opponent clearly wants to start a regional war! If LPL has the ability, don't poach our core combat power! See if you die!】
【It's okay, they can't use Korean aid in the Asian Games! This time, let them show their true colors!】
【↑Suggest not to be so optimistic first, don't forget how miserably we lost in the first Asian Games.】
【It's all a conspiracy of CN people! They just know that the esports industry is one of the pillar industries of our Republic of Korea, and now they want to completely destroy us, they want to destroy the future of the Republic of Korea!】
【Beryl, this Korean traitor! There will be a time for you to serve in the military, right? You dog, wait for me!!!!】
The Korean network finished reading the interview content that was also moved from the country to the Korean network on the forum for the first time, and immediately exploded, saying directly that this was to start a "Regional War"!
Ye Bo was very puzzled at first.
How could a few words of shouting at T1 be passed on like this??
However, Beryl next to him suddenly shouted: "Damn!?"
"Damn it! This reposted post is all made up!"
Xun asked back with a naive and curious face: "Ah, really, how do you know?"
"Xun, is there a possibility that I actually know a little Korean..."
After Beryl's translation, everyone knew.
It turned out that the content posted to the Korean network had changed several key words in the translation.
When the reposters translated, they very intimately used Korean () brackets to note and explain the "true meaning" in the words.
It's just that the notes were all nonsense!
For example, Beryl's: "We (referring to V5 and last year's EDG, DRX), in last year's World Championship, didn't lose a single game to the LCK region!"
Ye Bo's words were directly changed to: "Hope LCK can add some strength, don't let us even see the BO5 (referring to thinking LCK can't even enter the top eight!)"
"There is such an operation?" Ye Bo handed back the phone.
"Thinking about it, the Korean network repost posts I watched before, wouldn't they also be versions with added oil and vinegar."
Beryl shook his head: "That wouldn't be the case."
"The true meaning, the scolding is much dirtier than the translation~"
"Still remember last year when we won T1, there were several large trucks parked downstairs of T1 overnight to pull banners, and there were funeral wreaths written with the players' names filling the whole street..."
It can only be said that compared to the big talk of domestic fans, Korean fans are practical!
The game lost in the morning, and the wreaths at the door in the afternoon couldn't be placed anymore.
The most important thing is that everyone also knows that even if this kind of thing is "refuted" in the end, the probability of it spreading is not high, and everyone will only believe the news they heard for the first time.
It is foreseeable that this "Regional War" might really have started inexplicably!
And compared to Ye Bo, who just took this as fun.
At this time, Beryl and Deft next to him, both of them only feel inexplicably under immense pressure now...
Why do they have to let us go to play the Asian Games!?
Neither of them dared to think, if the result of this KR main Asian Games is a miserable defeat, and even their own Asian Games performance is not good, will they dare to return to their hometown during festivals...
Ye Bo didn't notice the change in the expressions of the two teammates.
He was already browsing the Tieba forum by himself.
V5's current popularity is undoubtedly shown, as soon as the game ended, various discussion posts and meme pictures were already very lively.
