This foreign aid is ridiculously strong

On May 21st, the first match day of the semi-finals started.

The two BO5 semi-finals will be held on two days respectively. Today, RNG and PSG will take the lead in fighting for the first final ticket.

There was no big-screen TV in the training room, so the KT players simply gathered in Lin Cheng's room to watch the live broadcast.

Seven or eight people were crowded into the small room. Before the game started, four teammates were sitting on the bed playing cards, while Lin Cheng and the coach were sitting on the floor playing a back-of-hand game.

Snapped!

With a crisp sound, Kang Dongxun rubbed the back of his red hand and said through gritted teeth: "It's my turn!"

Lin Cheng stretched out his hand and placed it on Kang Dongxun's palm.

The coach's eyes widened and he kept shaking his wrist in an attempt to confuse Lin Cheng with fake moves. Suddenly he flipped his wrist and launched an attack.

However, Lin Cheng's reaction was so quick.

The moment Kang Dongxun turned his wrist, he slightly retracted his palm and moved to the extreme to avoid it.

"Come again!"

Kang Dongxun gritted his teeth and stretched out the back of his red hand tremblingly.

Chi Shengxi, who was filming next to him, couldn't bear it anymore.

Why are you still playing after being beaten like this?

As a spectator, he clearly knew how big the gap between the two was.

After playing for just a while, Kang Dongxun was beaten until the back of his hand was red, and all Kang Dongxun's slightly larger attacks were dodged by Lin Cheng.

This is the case with the back-of-hand game. In order to exert force, the range of movements must become larger. When the difference in agility between the two sides is too large, Kang Dongxun has been beaten to the point of unconsciousness.

Kang Dongxun is addicted to food, and Lin Cheng doesn't tolerate him, and continues to do cruel things with evil intentions.

Snapped!

Chi Shengxi secretly poked Lin Cheng from behind, reminding him to give in.

This guy really doesn't treat the coach as a human being.

Didn’t you see that the other person’s hands were shaking?

Lin Cheng turned around and smiled at Chi Shengxi, indicating that he knew what he was thinking.

"Oops! No, coach, you win, you win, that's it for today."

Hearing this, Kang Dongxun calmly withdrew his red hand and put it behind his back, "Yeah~~~Okay! If I weren't afraid of affecting your performance in tomorrow's game, I wouldn't let you go so easily."

Chi Shengxi: "·······"

Just looking at the expressions of the two of them, she almost thought it was Lin Cheng whose hands were shaking after being beaten.

It can only be said that these two people are worthy of being masters and disciples, and the harder they go against the wind, the harder they become.

Neither deserves sympathy.

Lin Cheng picked up the drink next to him and handed it to Kang Dongxun, "Coach, drink some water."

Kang Dongxun nodded and stretched out his trembling right hand to receive the drink.

However, the red back of his hand looked a bit eye-catching. Kang Dongxun quickly retracted his right hand and put it to his side. He took the drink with his left hand and calmly put the straw in his mouth.

"tasty."

Lin Cheng also drank the drink in his hand leisurely, "Indeed! Nu Na said this is a special drink in Iceland. What is it called?"

"Skyr, Iceland's specialty dairy drink."

The two of them had a harmonious atmosphere. If Chi Shengxi hadn't clearly seen that Kang Dongxun's right hand was still shaking slightly, she almost thought it was a picture of a loving father and a filial son.

"The game starts soon."

Just in time, the broadcast picture on the screen reached the studio.

Lin Cheng only remembered this when he heard the Korean host mentioned a war song.

This time MSI has cooperated with the well-known streaming music platform Spotify. In addition to the Chinese stream broadcast, the host of other language streams will broadcast an advertisement before the game, allowing the audience to go to Spotify to listen to the fight song of the team they support.

Each team chose its own battle song, but since it would not be played at the scene, Lin Cheng forgot about it.

Riot Games launched a poll on Twitter a month ago to collect fan wishes for each team.

Of course, the battle song is ultimately decided by each team, and the votes of netizens can only be used as a reference. This kind of decision-making power must not be left to netizens.

Because you don’t know whether the people voting are actually your fans.

In the voting for KT's team song, T1 CEO Zhao Mashi came out and made a disgusting move.

After Zhao Mashi's promotion, countless T1 fans came to vote. In the end, the song "Runner" won by a narrow margin from the options given by Riot.

You must know that "Runner" is T1's new team theme song this year. Wouldn't it be completely disgusting if it became KT's MSI battle song?

Just like Barcelona's own team anthem was changed to "Come on Madrid" during the Champions League home game, Barcelona fans probably shook the scene.

The main reason was that Riot Games gave multiple options, KT fans were not unanimous in their opinions, while T1 fans and other trouble-making people focused on "Runner" to vote, which led to such an uncomfortable result for KT fans.

There was nothing to say, KT decisively vetoed the decision.

In the end, KT chose "Tiamo" as their battle song.

That's right, it's Lin Cheng's favorite song by the Crown Family.

Who makes his own top player persist?

Anyway, the war song won’t be played live, and it’s Spotify’s responsibility to promote it, so the club will just follow Lin Cheng’s pleasure, even if Lin Cheng chooses a children’s song, there’s no problem.

When KT's battle song was announced, everyone's jaws dropped. Forget about choosing a girl group song, they also chose a ballad with a mid-tempo rhythm.

Even KT fans and Crown remnants don’t understand. Although this song expresses Tara’s response to her fans, after all, Tara is not without songs with distinctive rhythms. The style of “Tiamo” is really not suitable for being a war song. .

RNG chose the anti-epidemic inspirational song "Your Answer", and PSG chose the passionate and majestic "Century". The style feels much higher than KT.

Of course, there is no need to add too many additional factors to a war song. Many teams choose their war songs as casually as KT.

Neon Man has two-dimensional blood flowing in his bones. The theme song DFM chose was Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba’s theme song "Red Lotus". Unfortunately, they went home without even playing Yone Yasuo.

And PGG's team song is really cool, "Wait a minute, we'll be home soon" perfectly fits the prospects of their team.

As the MSI progressed, "Tiamo" was also played a lot on Spotify. The beautiful melody received a lot of positive reviews, and it ranked in the TOP50 in terms of daily playlists in several regions.

This data is not that dazzling, and it is far less than the team songs of other teams that have a large audience.

For example, "Red Lotus", which had over 100 million views on Spotify last year, became the first Japanese song to exceed 200 million views during the MSI group stage. It's hard to say how much MSI's publicity played a role.

However, "Tiamo" can enter the TOP50 in Korea, which is a very gratifying result for a song that has been dormant for several years and is not widely sung.

Jiyeon and her sisters also expressed their regrets in the chat group.

They had planned to return as a four-piece in the second half of the year, but it was a pity that the time was staggered, otherwise this would be a perfect opportunity to promote the new song.

Lin Cheng was joking: Don’t worry! There should be another chance at the World Championship in the second half of the year, and I will work hard for you.

Zhiyan: (touching the dog’s head to praise)

Eun Jung: (Disgusted)

Xiaomin: (eating melon)

Juli:·····

Lin Cheng: Did I say something wrong?
