He angrily yelled at his brother on the spot, does this commentator no longer want to do it?

Chapter 497: What does Asian Games selection have to do with EDG?

No one asked Chen Ke the specific reason. Anyway, everyone nodded and seemed quite cooperative.

No matter what Chen Ke's plan was, it sounded right to them.

Besides, in the game, no matter what Chen Ke said or not, everyone would kill him.

Who the hell shows mercy when they have nothing to do?

While preparing for the game, everyone in V5 also rushed to Suzhou when the playoffs started.

This year’s playoffs will be held in Suzhou, which is the home court of the Li-Ning team.

Starting this year, Li Ning replaced Nike as the new sponsor of the LPL.

Holding the playoffs there can be regarded as a face to the sponsors, after all, they spent money.

After arriving in Suzhou, the entire V5 team stayed in the hotel.

Everyone found an e-sports hotel to train and rest.

Tengjing is only responsible for booking a hotel for you to stay, but unlike every year during the S competition, they also prepare a training place for you in the hotel.

This is not a matter of simple layout. Many hotels’ networks cannot keep up.

Therefore, we often see that some teams go to other places to play games and may find some Internet cafes for training.

When Chen Ke and the others came over, the playoffs were about to enter the semifinals.

In this year’s playoffs, the most surprising thing is the BLG team.

BLG's regular season ranking was not high, and everyone didn't take them seriously at first.

If you enter the playoffs, you will only be eliminated in the first round. If you reach the quarterfinals at most, no one will care.

Who knew that after they changed coaches, their playoff performance would actually get better and better.

It even defeated the Li Ning team, which ranked fourth in the regular season, and directly entered the semi-finals, owning the Resurrection League.

In this way, the top four teams in this year's LPL Spring Split are all determined.

JD.com, V5, EDG and BLG.

If you take a closer look, you will find that EDG seems a bit out of place among the top four.

Because the other three teams all have V5 champion members.

Not to mention V5, JD.com and BLG are the same teams as 369 and Toothpaste.

In fact, from another perspective, JD.com is also incompatible with the other three.

Apart from them, the remaining three are all-Chinese class teams.

Three of the top four are all-Chinese teams, which is also a good thing for the LPL.

It shows that more and more teams are willing to stick to the all-China class.

It’s just that no one cares about this yet. Everyone is talking about V5’s contribution to the entire LPL.

In addition to winning the championship, even if the championship lineup is disbanded, it will be good for the entire LPL.

Before it was disbanded, it was a dominant player. After it was disbanded, it made the entire LPL look more competitive.

It just proves the saying, "Gathering is like a ball of fire, scattering is like a sky full of stars."

It's a pity that Weibo is a bit off. Their lineup clearly looks more competitive than BLG.

As a result, the record was far behind, and it was BLG that even sent them away in the playoffs.

If Weibo can gain some momentum and enter the semi-finals, then the entire LPL will really be dominated by V5.

Weibo’s Spring Split results are not worthy of their lineup. It can only be said that the coach’s problem is bigger.

Mr. Hou's character is not suitable for being a coach.

Anyway, Chen Ke has never seen any coach who usually plays more Rank games than the players.

Normally you only review the game, but you don’t scold the players during the review.

When there are many big names in the team, he really can't manage them, and it's normal for him to have poor results.

We really need to change to a coach who is capable and capable of entering the LPL semi-finals.

Not surprisingly, Chen Ke and the others were going to face EDG in the semifinals.

The closer the game gets, the more relaxed everyone becomes.

Because they have studied EDG a lot, they are naturally full of confidence in this game and have even been looking forward to it for a long time.

Since Chen Ke is going to torture EDG severely, it proves that he will definitely play.

If Chen Ke plays, the game will be great to watch, even his teammates are looking forward to it.

Unexpectedly, two days before the game, people from EDG found Chen Ke.

The person who came to find Chen Ke was Abu. This man is the main leader of EDG. Apart from the boss, he has the greatest say.

Of course, him finding Chen Ke has nothing to do with the LPL semi-finals.

It's for the Asian Games.

The Asian Games, which are coming in a few months, will be held locally and will be an official event for the first time.

They attach great importance to it from top to bottom and show their attitude and determination to win.

Tengjing took over this matter and was under great pressure.

In S7 and S10, Tengjing has messed things up twice, but those two times combined may not be as significant as this Asian Games.

The main person in charge of the Asian Games still chose Abramovich.

As for domestic coaching, Abramovich's qualifications are still too high. When this person was a coach, he did achieve a lot of results.

The most important thing is that he led the team to win the gold medal in the Asian Games exhibition match five years ago. It is normal to continue to use him this time.

After Abramovich took over the matter, he concentrated on it. To put it bluntly, he didn't pay much attention to how EDG performed in the playoffs this year.

The moment they came up with this lineup from EDG this year, they planned to just mess around for a year. Who knew they would perform pretty well in the regular season.

Then everyone can continue to play normally in the playoffs. Being able to reach the semi-finals is already in line with expectations.

With V5 and JD.com here, you can’t win the championship, so there’s really nothing to worry about.

Earn more points in the Spring Split so that you can compete in the World Championship in the Summer Split.

Being able to enter the World Championship is already a great success for this kind of lineup that doesn't spend much money.

After spending a small amount of money to accomplish big things and handling the Asian Games well, Abu feels that his peak may be coming.

The first step in the Asian Games is to select players.

How to build the lineup and who to choose are all very particular.

Unlike five years ago, it was more casual and not many people said anything when the lineup was selected.

At most, Xiaohu fans were scolding because he was not chosen by RNG at that time.

There is too much attention this year. If the lineup is not chosen well, there will be great pressure from public opinion.

Nowadays, there are too many reports about monsters online, which has really caused a big fuss and is not a good thing for the entire LPL.

In many cases, it's not that Iron Fist wants to clean up the situation, but that there are too many people reporting it.

For Abramovich, this year's selection is not very difficult.

Because there is one person who is certain, and that is Chen Ke.

No one can refuse to go, but Chen Ke must go to this Asian Games.

This is not a question of qualification. If Chen Ke doesn't go, the national team really has no confidence that they can win the championship.

If Chen Ke doesn't go, first of all, public opinion will be difficult to overcome.

As long as Chen Ke is settled, it will be enough for everyone else to make a rough choice.

I briefly met Abu a few times, but there was never any communication.

Today, Abu came to see Chen Ke, mainly because everyone was in Suzhou, so it was more convenient.

Just make an appointment to chat first.

This time the selection has not officially started yet, and Abu came to Chen Ke just to hear his thoughts.

After all, Chen Ke is the core. Whether it is sincere or just a show, he needs to communicate with Chen Ke in advance.

Before coming to see Abu, Chen Ke also knew why he was looking for him.

They arranged to meet in a relatively private place, just the two of them, so there was no need to worry about the conversation being overheard.

When they first met, the two people directly talked about the Asian Games.

At the beginning, it was Abu who was talking. He was introducing Chen Ke to the process of the Asian Games and when the review would be conducted.

You can hear the excitement in his tone, and he obviously knows what it means to him after winning the gold medal this time.

From now on, his status and reputation in this circle will be unimaginable.

"As for coaching, I decided to let Mai Zijian be the head coach of the Asian Games."

Abramovich first talked about the choice of coach.

He is the general manager this year, a behind-the-scenes type, and will definitely not be a coach.

There is actually no suspense in the selection of the coach. To put it bluntly, it depends on honor and qualifications.

As for the players, you can talk about their status and so on, but the coaches really rely on seniority.

As long as you have led a team to get some results in the past, even if you encounter Waterloo later, you will not have to worry about finding a job in the future.

For example, Zhu Kai in the original timeline became a Grand Slam coach.

Even if the reputation disappears after the Asian Games, as long as the salary requirements are not so high, you can still find a job if you want.

S8 led IG to win the championship. After returning to the LCK, it can be said that the operation is getting more and more outrageous year by year.

He is definitely the first champion coach to be fired by his team in the middle of two consecutive years, with two different teams.

After DRX kicked him, he won the championship directly.

Logically speaking, this kind of coach is quite scary, but there is still no shortage of good teams wanting to use him.

The coaches used in the Asian Games must be domestically produced.

In 2018, there were still two Korean coaches from RNG working behind the scenes. After it became an official project this year, no Koreans could appear on the coaching team.

Among domestic coaches, who has the qualifications to surpass Mai Zijian?

In the past two years of V5, he has won two consecutive championships. He can only be the head coach, and no one else can take over this position.

The same is true in South Korea. In 2018, they found the Samsung coach, and this year they even made Du Ma the head coach of the Asian Games. To put it bluntly, these two people have sufficient qualifications.

Chen Ke naturally has no objection to Mai Zijian being the coach.

It will be more convenient for you to be an acquaintance when the time comes.

As soon as Chen Ke nodded, Abu said: "As for the assistant instructor, I plan to let Zhu Kai and Dashu work together. With the two of them assisting Mai Zijian, we can ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Chen Ke: "?"

Chen Ke never expected that he could even think of letting Zhu Kai become the coach.

At present, Zhu Kai's qualifications are equivalent to none and seem to be very weak.

Even as an assistant coach, Chen Ke felt reluctant.

If you want to say that Zhu Kai is a Grand Slam coach, you really can't refuse.

You are nothing now, why should Chen Ke be polite?

He simply said: "I don't think they are suitable. Just let the V5 coaching team come directly."

The words were not said too harshly, but they were still relatively direct.

Chen Ke doesn't have much objection to Maokai. He can be regarded as a serious and professional coach. The main reason is Zhu Kai.

Even if bringing him along wouldn't affect anything, Chen Ke didn't want him to become a gold medal coach.

Abu's expression changed slightly, but he remained stable.

He knew what Chen Ke meant, and he also knew that what Chen Ke said made sense.

I wanted to squeeze the two coaches in, but I also wanted to test Chen Ke's attitude.

If Chen Ke doesn't think it matters, then there's no problem.

As long as Chen Ke speaks, there will be no objections, and Chen Ke can be pulled out to block the gun when necessary.

Chen Ke's attitude is so resolute right now, and he almost doesn't give him any leeway. This is something that Abu didn't expect.

But then Abramovich felt relieved. Indeed, Chen Ke was different from most professional players.

Unlike other players, when they discuss something with him, they usually say "I can do that".

"Anyway, the coaching issue is tentatively focused on the V5 coaching team. There are still some processes to go through in the future."

"The main thing is the selection of players. What I mean is that there is no need to have such a big battle to select players this time."

"The main focus is on the players from the top four teams this time."

"After this year's MSI, selections will probably be arranged."

"..."

While Abu was still talking, Chen Ke's thoughts had already flown out a little.

Now Abramovich's selection ideas have indeed changed.

There is no plan to recruit all the players who can be ranked in the LPL, and then divide them into first, second, and third rounds of selection.

The main reason is that V5 is too strong. In addition to Chen Ke, there must be someone else in V5 who wants to be selected.

Including substitutes, there are six positions in total, and each position is extremely precious.

After removing the V5 players, there aren't actually that many positions left. You can choose directly from the top four teams.

It sounds like nothing wrong and saves a lot of steps.

The most important thing is that it is convenient for people from Abusai EDG to enter.

In Abu's view, this year's Asian Games is very stable.

Chen Ke has been winning the LCK with the V5 World Championship in the past two years, which has made many people not take the Korean team seriously.

If I can win, I'll put one of my own in there and get a gold medal, which will be very helpful to EDG later on.

If everyone is good, then that is really good.

As the person in charge of the Asian Games, Abramovich will definitely not be able to escape his share of the credit as long as he wins the gold medal this time.

But he is also a shareholder of EDG. He has been tied to EDG for the rest of his life, and he must be thinking about getting some benefits for EDG.

Chen Ke laughed when he heard this. He knew that Abu had this intention from the beginning.

So I plan to beat EDG first in the playoffs to prevent public opinion from being biased towards them.

Unexpectedly, Abu found him first.

In this case, Chen Ke would not be polite.

He narrowed his eyes and asked: "When selecting candidates for the Asian Games, we must select players who are capable and in good condition."

"But what does this have to do with EDG?"

[True Points +2000]

Chen Ke's words directly caused a critical hit and silenced Abu.

To be honest, no player has spoken to him in such a strong tone in these years.

Chen Ke doesn't care about this at all.

No matter how senior you are in the industry, Abu, what does it have to do with me? When did the LPL start to treat elders as inferior to younger ones?

Since everyone is sure that they can win the gold medal in the Asian Games, they want to share this piece of pork at home.

Then wouldn't it be better for me to share it with my own people? Why should I give you an advantage?

No matter how unhappy I am, can you not take me to the Asian Games?

The Asian Games can be without you, but it cannot be without me!

With absolute initiative, Chen Ke was too lazy to pay attention to emotional intelligence.

You have high emotional intelligence here and don't want to offend anyone.

Maybe people will think you acquiesced and took care of the matter quietly.

Therefore, it is best to block the road before selecting people.
