Chapter 275: Dream Linkage, Double Chefs’ Ecstasy (Confirmed)
That’s right, the people who came were the LPL player team, and the team leaders were all familiar faces.
Ye Xiu, Su Mucheng, and Tang Rou from Happy;
Yu Wenzhou, Huang Shaotian, and Chu Yunxiu of Blue Rain;
The mysterious Song Xiao and Li Hua...
Of course, there is also the new world champion Fanhua, who has the most complete lineup, including Tian Sen, and all the members are present.
Ye Zhengzheng and Zhang Jiale were chatting and laughing, but suddenly he saw more than 20 pairs of eyes staring at him. He was startled: "Old Han? Why are you here too?"
When he shouted, the players from LPL also reacted and the noise of fighting stopped abruptly.
The two parties just stared at each other, eyes wide open, and Zhang Jiale glared at Wang Jiexi.
"Are you here to shoot a promotional video as well?" Zhang Xinjie was the first to react and spoke first.
No wonder the layout of the venue looks familiar, isn’t this strong contrasting color scheme and sci-fi style a typical LPL style?
At first, Zhang Xinjie thought that this was just the Honor League officials continuing to "reasonably borrow" the style of LPL.
It wasn't until he saw Ye Xiu and the others come in, and recalled that the Honor officials had to send them all the way to Shanghai to shoot a promotional video, that his mind suddenly buzzed, and he understood everything.
"Yes, we are here to shoot the promotional video for the summer season." Ye Xiu nodded, "Are you guys coming too?"
"To shoot a promotional video." Zhang Xinjie nodded with a wry smile.
“Those guys will eventually learn to adapt.” Ye Xiu nodded with a surprised look on his face. It was obvious that his fun-loving spirit had been ignited by this sudden incident.
Shooting a promotional video with the old guys from Honor?
This is so much fun.
Here, the outspoken Sun Xiang was the first to speak without thinking: "Why are you guys filming in the same place as us?"
"Perhaps we should ask you this question." Yu Wenzhou pushed his glasses, obviously thinking.
"We used this filming location once before during the Spring Season Playoffs. If you search for the promotional video from that time, you can see the same set."
"And the layout here is obviously based on the LPL style. The typical red and blue contrast is very similar to our stage."
"So, if I'm not mistaken, you are the outsiders."
Zhang Xinjie nodded slightly: "That's what I said, but why?"
Over the past year or so, the confrontation between Tencent Esports and Honor has become deeply rooted in people's minds.
It was already incredible enough that Tencent Esports had helped Honor with publicity for the first time.
Now they are even shooting promotional videos together?
Isn't this too metaphysical?
The two extremely smart guys looked at each other and shook their heads.
There was too little information and they couldn't analyze what the higher-ups were thinking.
Only Wang Jiexi looked around while they were talking, and finally fixed his eyes on the work area not far away: "Maybe, we can find out by asking."
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and saw two familiar figures among the group of filming crew members who were making final preparations.
Feng Xianjun, former chairman of the Honor Professional League and current head of Tenghai Esports.
The current chairman of the Honor Professional League is Han Yong.
These two guys, who should have been in obvious opposition, were now chatting and laughing quite intimately, just like two old acquaintances who had not seen each other for many days.
Ye Xiu's eyes lit up and he immediately strode forward, followed closely by Han Wenqing, Yu Wenzhou and others.
"Old Feng, why are you here in person?" He greeted in a familiar manner.
Seeing that it was Ye Xiu, Feng Xianjun didn't react much and replied cheerfully, "Yes, the scale is quite large this time, and I happened to be free, so I came to take a look at the scene."
Times have changed. Now, when he faces Ye Xiu, he no longer needs to prepare quick-acting heart-saving pills in advance.
It’s not because medical technology has advanced, but because within the framework of Tencent Esports, there are obviously far fewer things Ye Xiu can do.
In the past, Ye Xiu was good at making trouble. In addition to his fake identity, it was mainly because he often took advantage of loopholes in the Glory system and made trouble unscrupulously.
Not accepting business orders and interviews is the lightest punishment. Once a major version is updated, the online game will be in chaos because of him.
But now, under Tencent Esports' complete and detailed system, Ye Xiu has less and less room to cause trouble.
At the same time, he no longer needs to cause trouble for the alliance as frequently as he did during the glory days.
So now, Feng Xianjun can calmly face this troublemaker who used to make him worried whenever he thought about him.
"What's wrong? What's the matter?" Feng Xianjun asked knowingly.
“We see that Lao Han and his team are here to shoot a promotional video as well. Everyone is quite curious about the two companies shooting a promotional video together.” Ye Xiu chuckled.
"Well..." Feng Xianjun looked as if he had suddenly realized something, and pointed at Han Yong who was watching the fun on the side: "You'll have to ask Chairman Han about this."
Ye Xiu and the others turned to look at Han Yong and found that he also looked calm and composed. For a moment they were confused about his intentions.
Logically speaking, the current chairman, who once led Honor to impose unilateral restrictions on Tencent Esports in China, should be Tencent Esports’ biggest rival now.
But why do the two parties look so intimate?
Are the two old foxes’ levels too high that even Ye Xiu can’t see through them?
Or do they have a really good relationship?
Ye Xiu's mind raced, but Han Wenqing asked directly, "Chairman Han, why are we filming a promotional video with LPL professional players?"
It’s not that Han Wenqing is so against the “rebel ninjas” in LPL. After all, it won’t be long before he becomes one of them.
It was simply because the situation was too abnormal that he didn't know how to deal with it.
"Please be patient, contestant Han Wenqing. This is just a normal business activity." Han Yong smiled formally and explained:
"According to the latest cooperation agreement between us and Tenghai, they will be responsible for the publicity and online broadcasting of the ninth season of the China Glory Professional League."
"And the filming of promotional videos is naturally part of the publicity work."
Simply put, the Honor Professional League, which has no money and is not good at these things, outsourced all the publicity work to Tenghai, the big sponsor who has become active again.
Tenghai also wanted to save trouble, so they just filmed the two leagues together.
Hmm, that sounds pretty convincing... What the hell!
Many contestants felt like their old complaints were stuck in their throats, which was extremely uncomfortable.
How confident do you have to be to hand over all the league promotion and broadcasting work to the rival team?
But seeing that Teng Hai treated everyone equally and with high standards, everyone seemed to be at a loss for words. And speaking of traitors, it seemed that everyone present had submitted their letters of allegiance to Teng Hai.
Well, let's just take a picture and give it a try.
……
"So handsome, Senior Zhang Jiale!" Zou Yuan, one of the representatives of Baihua, ran over to Fanhua to watch the fun during the break in filming.
When he saw the scene here, his eyes immediately changed to one of admiration.
At this time, the six members of Fanhua were surrounding an extremely domineering throne. MSi's FMVP Zhang Jiale was sitting in the middle, and the other five were surrounding it, each posing in a casual or domineering posture.
The perfect lighting makes Zhang Jiale's eyes hidden in the shadows, and with a hand stretched forward and clenched, he looks so domineering.
However, when Zou Yuan exclaimed, Zhang Jiale's whole body trembled slightly.
It was not until the photographer at the side shouted "over" that he suddenly collapsed on the huge throne like a deflated balloon, with no image at all.
"This is too stupid. I should have voted for G2 earlier!" Zhang Jiale kept muttering to himself.
"When I think about the fans seeing these scenes, I get goose bumps all over my body." Sun Zheping also looked constipated.
They thought the promotional video would be childish, but they didn't expect it to be so childish.
Especially since Zou Yuan, a younger brother who was not that close to them, was watching the fun with admiration on his face, this group of old boys and socially anxious people were so ashamed that they almost fainted.
For example, Mo Fan was squatting behind the throne and trembling.
Bored Zhang Jiale glanced at the website nearby and suddenly chuckled: "But compared to over there, it seems that our place is a little more normal."
Everyone looked over in the direction of his voice, and immediately they all laughed strangely as if they understood what he meant.
On that side——
"Do we have to shoot it this way? It's not very appropriate, right?" Han Wenqing looked awkward at this moment.
"Reconsideration." Ye Xiu rarely agreed with his old rival's words.
"It's okay!" The photographer looked calm and composed.
"Anyway, we will separate you into your own promotional videos during post-editing, so you won't be in the same frame."
Seeing the photographer's determined look, even if the two enemies had many complaints, they could only do as he said.
"Okay, everyone, get ready! Fourth time, let's begin!"
"Look up! Look at each other! Look at me with fighting intent! Throw your fists"...
……
After a morning of chaos and a few days of warm-up, the day before the start of the LPL Summer Season, the Honor Professional League and the LPL official released the promotional video for the new season almost simultaneously.
After being polished in the LPL spring season, the promotional video with a bit of passion and humor has long become a favorite among fans.
And this time is no exception.
Sure enough, the familiar sci-fi style scenes and the familiar middle school style speeches.
It’s just that after going through the trials and tribulations of the spring season, with countless famous scenes and grudges, the summer season promotional video obviously has more to say than the spring season promotional video.
The scene of the flowers, who had just returned as the king, surrounding Zhang Jiale who was holding up the throne, attracted screams from countless fans.
But as they watched, some people felt something was wrong.
How come the background of the Honor promotional video is exactly the same as our LPL?
Could it be that they were filmed in the same place?
After all, fans have sharp eyes, and someone soon pointed out the similarities between the two promotional videos.
After making a few comparison pictures, I confirmed that they were taken at the same venue.
Then the question comes:
Were they just filmed in the same place? Or were they filmed in the same place, at the same time, or even together?
Of course, there is no official way to answer this question. No matter how close the two sides are, they cannot reveal such secrets.
But no matter how tight-lipped the authorities are, they cannot hide the fact that there are many Leeuwenhoeks in modern times.
Soon, someone noticed the flaw.
In the promotional videos for LPL and Glory, Ye Xiu and Han Wenqing’s individual shots are surprisingly consistent.
When the camera zooms in, he looks up, looks straight ahead, and then punches forward accompanied by special effects.
The only difference is that Han Wenqing’s special effect is the lonely smoke in the desert, while Ye Xiu’s is his signature hero in the spring season, the Tsar.
It was just these few seconds of footage that allowed netizens to discover a new world.
Since the promotional videos all use the highest image quality, the images are very detailed.
So netizens managed to take a close-up screenshot of Ye Xiu and Han Wenqing’s faces.
Then, in the pupils of both of them, they discovered the rough outline of the other team's uniform.
The case has been solved, not only were these two guys filmed together, but they were also filmed face to face with the same set of cameras!
As soon as this great discovery came out, both fans of Honor and fans of LPL were excited.
In the past, due to the overt and covert struggles between the two companies, as well as the increasingly fierce offensive of Honor's crazy fans some time ago, many true fans were forced to take side.
But many of the star players on both sides have a lot of grudges against each other, so how could they be separated so easily?
Everyone can only keep this awkwardness in their hearts.
And now, the official actually took the lead in letting the players from both sides shoot a promotional video together?
And they let Han Wenqing and Ye Xiu, two old rivals of ten years, film face to face?
No, how come the official is better than us? How come they can do a fantasy linkage like this?
Now, this group of fans are justified.
We also have an official leader!
From now on, everything will be open and aboveboard.
Double chef ecstasy!
