Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 330: Now and Then
"He has released 13 albums and held more than 200 solo concerts..."
"He is the number one singer of Chinese style songs and a star summoner in League of Legends!"
The lights in Pengcheng Spring Cocoon Stadium went out, and the text introduction flashed on the screen in the center of the stage, making the large number of audiences present excited and offering their heartfelt applause and cheers.
In fact, when Jay Chou's good brother Liu Genghong came on stage, took over the host's microphone, and began to introduce the next "mysterious" guest, the audience had already guessed it.
After all, the news that Jay Chou would appear at the fourth anniversary celebration had already spread like wildfire, and when he used his signature swordsman to play a "friendly match" with Miss, Wawa and others, even wearing a mask did not conceal his identity at all.
The players already knew what was going on, but at this moment they were still extremely cooperative. This was the show that King Zhou deserved.
"Players, this is going to be an important moment. Let us welcome our star summoner, Zhou! Jie! Lun~~~~~~~" Liu Genghong announced in a long voice.
As the audience was excited, Jay Chou's promotional video began to play on the screen, and there was also a game scene where Jay Chou was chopping melons and vegetables with his signature swordsman...
Afterwards, the dim gymnasium suddenly lit up, and all the spotlights gathered in the center of the stage. The lift platform slowly rose, and Jay Chou appeared alone, waving to the audience.
Obviously, this is Jay Chou's unique debut ceremony, and the cards are fully played.
"Hello, everyone. I'm really happy. It feels like a concert!" Jay Chou opened his mouth with his authentic Taiwanese accent, a familiar tone engraved in the minds of countless audiences.
One can't help but sigh, more than a decade has passed, Jay Chou is still the same Jay Chou, and I still can't hear clearly what the lyrics he is singing are (funny).
"This is the first time in my life that I have performed such an e-sports show on the spot. This should also be your first time standing on this stage." Jay Chou skillfully talked to Liu Genghong and began a casual chat.
This is also an indispensable interactive session in Jay Chou’s concert. After chatting about daily life for a while, he began to introduce other members who were going to perform.
"Next, let me introduce our opponent, a well-known figure, the representative of golden bachelors, the national husband, Principal Wang~ yoho~" Liu Genghong cheered.
Principal Wang, wearing a black hat, walked onto the stage leisurely. After a round of joking from both sides to liven up the atmosphere, he invited the players from both sides to come out one after another.
Jay Chou's team: Liu Genghong on top, Jay Chou in the jungle, retired god of war Curly Baboon in the middle, and Ogura + Wei Shen in the bottom lane as support.
Principal Wang’s team: Zhu Zhen on top, Lin Gou in the jungle, Big Nose Luzhufeng in the middle, and Principal Wang + Death as assistants in the bottom lane.
Lin Gou, who appeared as the finale, also presented a famous handshake scene. He was calm and composed when shaking hands with Principal Wang, and bowed to Jay Chou.
Sitting in the VIP seat below the stage, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but smile knowingly as he looked at this famous scene. Zhou Dongsheng remembered that this scene was made into an animated graphic by someone and was widely circulated on the Internet for a while.
Zhou Dongsheng had certainly seen it in his previous life, but in this life he became a witness off the field.
But to be honest, although this group of star performances were full of gimmicks and entertainment, the effect of the show on stage was indeed quite embarrassing, making Zhou Dongsheng wish he had a remote control to press fast forward.
After the two sides chatted awkwardly for a while, they finally entered the exhibition match, with MISS and Wawa at the commentary desk providing the commentary.
"Hey, the name of Principal Wang's team is Panda Kick. I believe everyone is familiar with it. This is Principal Wang's live broadcast platform. It's quite popular recently. If you are interested, you can go and learn more about it..."
At the commentary desk, Han Yiying introduced with a sweet smile that it was obvious that Principal Wang's "smuggling of private goods" had been agreed upon, otherwise Han Yiying, as the commentator, would not have specifically pointed out this key point.
In addition to Principal Wang's team name, Wei Shen not only matched his teammates, but also gave them the nickname "Beat PYL", obviously preparing to hit his teammates hard.
The show effect of the whole exhibition match was also maximized. Jay Chou's Juggernaut once scored a record of 14/0. With the Ruined King, Red Cross, and Whispering Banshee in his hands, he TPed to the jungle Juggernaut and really played it well.
In the end, Jay Chou fought all the way from Nantianmen to Penglai East Road, and ended his sinful life with a rush to the fountain. The kill ratio between the two sides was fixed at "37 to 25".
The people up there had a lot of fun, and the audiences below also enjoyed the show to a great extent. This unique star show achieved certain results.
Finally, Jay Chou will stay to host the gift-giving session, and will select messages and gifts from 10,107,566 summoner players across the country.
After the gift-giving session, it was natural to decide the last team to participate in the World Championship. On the first day of the celebration, EDG lived up to expectations and won the second World Championship spot after LGD.
After watching the exhibition match, Zhou Dongsheng went backstage without any obstruction and happened to meet Han Yiying and Wawa who came down from the commentary desk.
Han Yiying's eyes lit up slightly, and as if possessed by some mysterious force, she took the initiative to greet him, "So you're not a staff member."
Zhou Dongsheng spread his hands, shrugged and said, "I didn't say I was a staff member."
Wawa's eyes glanced at the two of them imperceptibly. They were a handsome man and a beautiful woman, and both of them were in the e-sports circle. They were a perfect match!
As the one who kidnapped the leading female host of LPL, Wawa is also an experienced person. He said earnestly: "Then you guys chat, I'll go back to the backstage first." Then he decisively slipped away without choosing to stay and spoil the fun.
"I heard from Coach Wa that you are the boss of the IM team? The IM team advanced to the playoffs in its first appearance in the LPL, which is a pretty good record." Han Yiying praised.
"We are still a little bit behind QG. If we can beat IG and advance to the World Championship, it will be a groundbreaking triple jump." Zhou Dongsheng sighed.
Although he had taken the name "IM", it was obvious that this "unprecedented" triple jump had nothing to do with him.
"Not as good as the best but better than the worst. Do you think QG can beat IG? That's Principal Wang's team." Han Yiying teased.
"It's a 50-50 chance. Who knows before the fight starts?" Zhou Dongsheng joked.
The two chatted as they returned to the backstage area. At this time, Principal Wang and others were still reviewing the performance match that had just taken place.
Compared to the ruthless Curly Baboon who used his signature Fizz, Team Wind who used Lulu obviously understood the ways of the world better. They protected Principal Wang and submitted their letter of allegiance to join the Panda platform.
As the two walked into the backstage, everyone couldn't help but look over there. Captain Feng, who was wearing glasses, looked at the two people who were chatting and laughing, and his expression froze slightly.
"Hey Dongsheng, why did you come back with Miss?" Principal Wang teased.
"I just happened to meet him. I was itching to do something after watching the exhibition match just now..." Zhou Dongsheng took over the conversation and said casually.
"I came here to ask Jay Chou for an autographed photo for my relative's sister..." Han Yiying spoke without thinking and tried to evade the question.
"In that case, we can go to the Internet cafe to play a few games after the event. I'll book a place. Miss, would you like to come with us?" Principal Wang said excitedly, obviously unwilling to accept the loss of the game.
After all, Principal Wang’s favorite hero, “100% Win Rate AD”, has not yet been launched.
"Okay!" Han Yiying agreed happily.
At this time, Zhou Dongsheng's phone rang. Zhou Dongsheng took out his mobile phone and said.
"That's fine with me. I'll just take a call first."
