Shanghai, on the 10th floor of the Grand Square, in the stadium of League of Legends S1 World Finals.
There were still three days before the official start of the tournament, and the preparations for the S1 World Finals were basically complete.
The participating teams and contestants from various countries had already arrived in Shanghai. The officials had arranged hotels and training rooms for them.
Chen Mo had personally decided on the entire process of the S1 World Championship. Although it wasn’t as Grand as the League of Legends World Championship in his previous life, it was still something that would shock all the players in the parallel world.
After all, the current influence of League of Legends was far from the level in his previous life. The current standard was unprecedented in many people’s eyes. The popularity of e-sports competitions was rising step by step, and it couldn’t be achieved overnight.
At the very least, it should be a good start.
On the 10th floor of Yuan da Plaza, the staff members were adjusting the equipment and rehearsing.
The person in charge of blazing glory, Sun Xiao, accompanied Chen Mo the entire time, going through the flow of the competition for the last time.
Sun Xiao was the person in charge of the S1 World Championship this time. Basically, he was responsible for everything, big or small, in the competition.
He had thought that everything was ready, but to his surprise, Chen Zhao still pointed out all kinds of problems.
“Have you explained the competition etiquette to the contestants? The winning team will have to take the initiative to shake hands and wave to the audience at the end of the game. Then, they can go back to pack up their keyboards and mouse and leave. ”
“In addition to the mouse and keyboard that the contestants bring, the officials must prepare two additional sets of the same model. If any of the contestants have any problems with their equipment, replace them immediately.”
“If the game is paused due to a malfunction, the director must inform the host of the reason for the pause immediately and let the audience know.”
“Also, if there are any emergency situations, there must be a corresponding plan. I don’t want the audience to wait and have two commentators do a crosstalk, understand?”
……
Chen Mo explained everything to Sun Xiao.
Sun Xiao had been in charge of many esports competitions and was very familiar with them, but he still found himself lacking in many areas when it came to Chen Mo.
This caused Sun Xiao to have the same doubts as the chairman of blazing glory, Zhang Kaiwen.”Who was the professional esports player?
After confirming that everything was in order, Chen Mo and sun Xiao returned to the hotel where the contestants were staying.
This time, the hotel was arranged as well. It was a four-star hotel nearby. It was not particularly luxurious, but it was very close to the venue and very convenient. Other than that, Chen Mo had also arranged a special training room for the players.
Chen Mo and sun Xiao walked towards the training room for the Chinese players.
“How’s the shooting of the promotional video?” Chen Zhao asked.
“We’re almost done. There’s one last team left today, the one from Europe.” Sun Xiao said,”the time is a little tight, but I’m sure I can cut it out the day before the game. The effect will definitely be okay.”
Chen Zhao looked at him.”Which team from Europe?”
Sun Xiao was taken aback.”It’s called NTW, a Ninjas work team. It’s not a particularly big-name team, so it’s arranged for the last day.”
“Just say the names of the teams,” Chen Zhao said indifferently.”I can remember them.”
“Alright, chief Chen.” Sun Xiao nodded.
Chen Mo planned a simple promotional video for the 16 teams. After all, this was the first World League of Legends finals, and it was normal for the local players to not know about the foreign clubs.
Shooting this promotional video would help viewers from all over the world get to know these teams well, and it could also be considered a brief introduction.
It was just that time was a little tight. These teams had immediately arranged for the shooting of the publicity film as soon as they arrived in Shanghai, but they had still been filming until now.
“Did the contestants feel any resistance when they were shooting the trailer?” Chen Mo asked.
Sun Xiao shook his head.”No, everyone felt that it was quite fresh because there was no such segment in the previous e-sports competitions. The special publicity film made them feel that this competition is very formal and has a sense of ceremony.”
“However, everyone is worried about the effect of the promotional video. They’re afraid that it’ll be awkward when it’s cut.”
Chen Zhao laughed.”Don’t worry. It won’t be awkward. My storyboard will definitely be super cool.”
Sun Xiao smiled and nodded.”That’s true. President Chen can be considered a storyboard master in the country.”
The two of them chatted and went to the training room for domestic players.
The training room was located in the hotel. The teams from different divisions were assigned to different floors, and there were specialized staff members in charge of receiving them.
Every team had a special training room. In addition to the computer for daily training, there was also a relatively large TV for studying tactics and watching other teams ‘games.
Sun Xiao introduced,”basically all the domestic teams are here, this is IF team’s training room.”
The four teams in the country had fought their way to the finals, so they definitely represented the highest level of professional players in the country.
The four teams were IF, MG, NRG, and Ntclub.
Chen Mo already knew about this result. It was basically the same as what he had predicted. These four teams were all on the list of the League of Legends professional league, and they were all relatively old teams in the country.
NRG was relatively young, but the boss paid special attention to League of Legends and spent a lot of money to poach two star players, so in terms of strength, they were not inferior to the other three old teams.
IF’s performance was the best in the selection. This team was called immortal fairy, which was the richest club in the country. The five members of the team were all top players and geniuses in the country. Basically, the most talented players in League of Legends in the country had all been poached into this team.
Just as Chen Zhao reached the door, he heard laughter from the training room.
“Hahaha, Luo Yongchang, you’ve been solo killed by me again.”
“Hu Jing, don’t be so smug. I just miscalculated the duration of the summoner’s skill. Let’s play another round if you dare.”
“If you want to come again, then come again. Do you think I’m afraid of you?”
“That’s enough, you two stop soloing. I’ve just gotten some information on a few foreign teams. Come and study them together.”
“What’s there to see? I’ve watched a few games of European and American teams, and it’s simply blinding. What can I find out by studying their information? Are you studying how to hold your pee?”
“The Korea team seems to be very strong.”
“It’s not like we haven’t played in training tournaments before. They’re just a bunch of noobs, not even as good as Europe and America. These foreign servers opened more than two months later than us, and there are fewer people. Their ideas are much worse, what’s there to see?”
Chen Zhao heard this conversation from outside the door and frowned.
Sun Xiao was also a little embarrassed.
Chen Zhao pushed the door open and entered.
