Hearing this, Baolan seemed a little nervous: "Will you come back?"
Rouji and Theshy were stunned. Rouji asked, "What do you mean by come back?"
Baolan muttered, "You guys aren't going to... stay in LCK to play games, are you?"
"Ah? What the hell? Why do you think so?" Rouji laughed.
Prince Ning said, "Princess Lan is just worried that she won't have anyone to cling to. What do you think? Hahahaha."
Baolan rolled her eyes and said, "Isn't it because you are such a jerk? If you had just done a little more, we wouldn't be in such a bad situation."
Prince Ning mocked, "Oh my, you're still pretending. You know who is the most deceitful one."
Fu Manduo looked at Yuan Shen: "Shen Yuan, what are your plans?"
Yuan Shen responded: "Go back and rest for a while, then consider other things."
Fu Manduo nodded: "That's right, after all, we have been busy for so long, it's time to take a break."
"By the way, remember to participate in the All-Star Game. I will definitely vote for you then."
Yuan Shen responded: "Okay, I'll pay attention, but the coach of the All-Star Game will most likely be you, and then we'll have to work together again."
Fu Manduo smiled and said, "Yes, I feel relieved when you are here. It doesn't matter what kind of game we play."
After all the dishes were served, Fu Manduo said, "Let's eat first. Everyone must be hungry."
So everyone started to eat with relish.
Halfway through the meal, Fu Manduo suddenly said, "By the way, you guys need to start thinking about the champion skin issue. Give me a reply within a week and I will report it to Riot Games."
Ning Wang was the first to speak: "I've already thought about it, my champion skin, Nightmare!"
Baolan complained: "Nightmare? Do you understand the game? The nightmare system was invented by Yuan Shen."
Yuan Shen responded: "It doesn't matter. I won't choose Nightmare anyway."
Prince Ning retorted: "Did you hear that, Princess Lan? Yuan Shen himself said that he would not choose Nightmare. Why are you in such a hurry? Does it have anything to do with you?"
At this time, Rouji said: "I want a Knife girl skin. The new version of Knife girl looks pretty good now."
Then he looked at Theshy: "Theshy, do you want the Irelia skin? You don't want it, but I do."
Theshy responded: "I want Aatrox, Aatrox is pretty handsome."
Prince Ning suddenly felt a little regretful: "Are they all so handsome? I suddenly want to change one now."
Baolan complained: "You haven't thought it through yet, why do you want this or that?"
Fu Manduo looked at the two people in the bottom lane: "Bottom lane, Baolan and Lao Zei, have you thought about it?"
Baolan muttered: "I haven't really thought about it before..."
Ning Wang said: "Tahm Kench, I think the temperament of this hero is quite suitable for you."
“Hahaha…” Everyone from IG laughed.
Smlz spoke first: "I want Kaisa's skin."
Fu Manduo nodded and recorded it on his mobile phone.
Baolan also made a decision: "I want a Luo skin."
King Ning had another opinion: "Hey! Xia and Luo are a pair. Since you all chose Luo, why didn't you choose Xia?"
Baolan retorted: "Is it your business? Why do you have to butt in on everything?"
Smlz said: "Then I'll change to Xia, Xia is also good."
Fu Manduo asked, "Are you sure? Champion skins are no joke, they are very precious. Don't make changes just because of other people's opinions, or you'll regret it easily."
Smlz responded: "I'm sure."
Fu Manduo then looked at Yuan Shen and said, "What about Yuan Shen? Which champion skin do you want to choose?"
Yuan Shen replied: "Zhao Xin."
"Handsome, Zilong is so handsome. Lord Yuan really has good taste." King Ning was the first to flatter him.
Fu Manduo said, "I have already summarized it here, let me confirm it with you."
"Top laner is Aatrox, jungler is Xin Zhao, substitute jungler is Nightmare, mid laner is Irelia, ADC is Xayah, and support is Rakan. Any questions?"
Everyone in IG shook their heads.
Fu Manduo said, "Okay, then our champion skin is finalized. If you want to make any adjustments within a week, please contact me in time. After this week, it cannot be changed."
The IG members continued to eat. After finishing their meal, they sat down and chatted for a while, and then returned to the hotel to rest together.
Of course, it was impossible to rest. Everyone gathered together to party, had some midnight snacks, and played until three in the morning before going to bed.
The next day, except for Rouji and Theshy, everyone else returned to China first. After returning to China, everyone in IG met Principal Wang. However, because Rouji and Theshy did not come back, Principal Wang was not in a hurry to talk to them and planned to wait until Rouji and Theshy came back.
At the same time, voting for the 2018 League of Legends All-Star Invitational has begun!
The voting rules this time are different from before. Instead of voting separately for each position, all players are voted together, and the top two are eligible to participate in the All-Star Game.
There are four special invitation spots left, which are actively invited by Riot Games and do not require voting. The rest are KOLs, that is, relevant anchors, hosts, media workers, etc.
As soon as the voting began, Yuan Shen was pushed to the front, and his vote share exceeded 50%.
50% may not seem high, but you have to know that this is a competition with all players, not just the jungler. Other IG players are also Yuan Shen's competitors.
Despite this, Yuan Shen still received 53% of the votes!
The second place is Theshy, with 16% of the votes.
The third place is UZI, with 12% of the votes. The gaps behind are quite large, all in single digits.
A week passed quickly, and Rouji and Theshy returned.
The IG members had a meal with Principal Wang, and then they were invited to talk one by one.
Naturally, it was about the contract renewal. Yuan Shen talked with Principal Wang for about ten minutes, and his salary was increased by five million. The key point was that he obtained more rights and interests, and the share was increased by 3 percentage points. This was the key point.
Now IG earns hundreds of millions of dollars a year, which is a very impressive achievement.
Another half a month passed, and the voting for the All-Star Game ended, with all the places confirmed.
During the voting stage, Yuan Shen and Theshy got the spots.
Riot also invited UZI and Left Hand, and finally Meiko to the support position.
In addition, there are KOLs, including Saonan, GodLike, Yushuang, Ai Loli, Rhythm and other hosts, commentators, and anchors.
It’s the beginning of December and the LPL All-Star Team is setting off!
Yuan Shen arrived at the airport and started looking for someone after getting off the car.
Fu Manduo was the coach this time. He had sent a message to Yuan Shen before, asking them to meet at the airport. They all booked the same flight.
Suddenly, Yuan Shen discovered something was happening ahead, with dozens of people gathered together.
When I got closer, I found that it was Theshy who was surrounded. Besides him, there were also Saonan, Yushuang, UZI, etc.
These are the people who will participate in the All-Star Game this time.
Yuan Shen was wearing a mask, sunglasses, and a baseball cap at the time, covering his face, so he had not been recognized yet.
"Theshy, I'm your fan, can I have your autograph?"
"Uzi, can you take a picture with me?"
"Saonan, Haseki! Brother, save me!"
"Zuoshou, I'm your fan!" "Where's Yuan Shen? Why can't I see Yuan Shen?"
Quite a number of people are looking for Yuan Shen's location.
Yuan Shen stepped back, away from this place of trouble.
Just then, the phone rang. Yuan Shen took it out and saw that it was a message from Fu Manduo: "Are you here? We are already here, and we are the only one missing."
Yuan Shen walked towards the airport and replied, "I went in, into the terminal hall. I thought we were going to gather there."
Fu Manduo responded: "Okay, then we'll come in and find you."
Yuan Shen went through security check and went straight to the departure hall, where he waited.
Soon, the rest of the LPL All-Star team came in.
"Master Yuan!" Sao Nan was the first to notice Yuan Shen and walked over quickly.
"Master Yuan, I finally meet you in person. I am your most loyal fan!" Saonao also saluted Yuan Shen.
Yu Shuang walked over and said, "I'm here to meet the legendary four-time champion."
Even Yuan Shen couldn't do anything about it, are people nowadays so good at doing things?
UZI came over and said, "Yuan Shen, why did you come in by yourself? I thought you weren't here."
Yuan Shen replied: "I made a mistake, I thought we were gathering inside."
Meiko came over and said, "It's great to be teammates with Yuan Shen again, hahaha."
The left hand was more shy, and came over to greet him: "Master Yuan."
Nothing else was said.
The other passengers around were also startled and when they found out it was Yuan Shen, they all came over to join in the fun and take photos together.
Yuan Shen still couldn't hide. After all, there were people everywhere and he couldn't avoid being discovered.
An hour later, the LPL All-Star team boarded the plane, and after more than ten hours of flight, they finally arrived at their destination.
After leaving the airport, the LPL All-Star team came to the hotel, got their room cards, found their respective rooms, entered, and packed their luggage.
After Yuan Shen got ready, he took out his phone to take a look. Sure enough, they were photographed at the airport. Now the whole network knew that they had set off.
The audience is waiting for the All-Star Game to begin.
Because this is an entertainment competition, Fumanduo does not plan to arrange any training.
When it was evening, Fu Manduo invited Yuan Shen to join the group, and then notified everyone to gather together for dinner.
Yuan Shen came to the door of the room, and others came out of the room one after another. After everyone arrived, Fu Manduo greeted them, "Let's go, go eat something first. I'm not familiar with this place. If you have any good suggestions, you can always bring them up."
Just then, Zuoshou asked, "Are you paying for it yourself?"
Fu Manduo smiled and said, "This time our IG club will pay for the dinner. I have already told the boss about it."
UZI smiled and said: "If someone treats me, I have to eat something good."
Fu Manduo quickly said, "But I can't spend too much money, otherwise the boss will definitely think I'm taking advantage of it."
Yu Shuang smiled and said, "It's okay. Principal Wang is very rich, he won't mind."
Fu Manduo continued, "I think it should be kept below six figures. It cannot exceed six figures."
UZI responded: "That's fine. We are not such extravagant people, right? It's outrageous to spend more than 100,000 yuan on a meal."
So everyone went out to find a place to eat, and finally Meiko, after being recommended by fans, brought everyone to a Chinese restaurant.
"Welcome everyone from LPL!"
As soon as everyone arrived, they were warmly welcomed.
Meiko responded: "My fan said he has already said hello and he knows the boss."
Yuan Shen exclaimed: "Your fans are so powerful, your network is so wide?"
Meiko laughed and said, "That's definitely not comparable to Yuan Shen. Your fans are definitely better than mine in terms of both quality and quantity."
Under the enthusiastic arrangement of the boss, everyone came to the box, took their seats, and started ordering food.
Yuan Shen is not picky about food, so he leaves this matter to others.
Fu Manduo said: "This All-Star Game has a lot of variety. In addition to the regular regional competition and SOLO, there are also extreme blitz, two-player mode, and unlimited firepower."
Sao Nan got excited: "Is there still unlimited firepower?"
Meiko looked over and said, "Sao Nan, you want to use unlimited firepower?"
Saonan replied: "I may not be good at other modes, but unlimited firepower is my specialty. I have been playing it all the time."
Yuan Shen smiled and said, "We will arrange for you to appear then."
Fu Manduo introduced: "Each division of Infinite Firepower can send two people, and several divisions will form two teams. If Saonan wants to play, then we still have one spot left."
Sao Nan was stunned after hearing this, and quickly said, "Only two spots? Then I'd better forget it and give it to the big guys."
Yuan Shen said: "I think it's good enough to have fun. It doesn't matter who comes to play. Everyone should participate in a project. There are so many of us, so we can't have anyone idle."
Fu Manduo agreed: "I agree with this view. Everyone can have fun if they are assigned tasks."
Sao Nan said, "Since Yuan Shen thinks highly of me, I will fight!"
Just then, Meiko asked, "How do you play that Nexus Blitz?"
Theshy looked over and said: "Haven't you played it before? It's been played before."
Meiko shook her head: "Never played it."
Yuan Shen said: "Then you should ask Theshy. He is the king of entertainment modes. Whether it is ARAM, RPG or any other mode, he can easily win."
Meiko laughed and said, "Indeed, I have also heard from others that Theshy is very good at playing these."
Theshy smiled awkwardly and said, "I play these modes just to practice my skills."
Yuan Shen nodded repeatedly: "Indeed, indeed."
So Theshy and Meiko started communicating.
Fu Manduo continued, "There is also a SOLO mode. All of you invited professional players will participate. You don't need to sign up this time."
Meiko exclaimed, "Do I have to participate too? I'm a support."
Fu Manduo nodded: "Of course I have to participate, this is the rule of the tournament. Anyway, if you think it's hard to play, you can do whatever you want."
Meiko complained: "Oh, the official doesn't even consider the feelings of us supports. How can supports play in a SOLO match if their operation is not good and their heroes are not good."
Yuan Shen said: "Not necessarily. Some support heroes are quite powerful in SOLO."
UZI joked: "Yuan Shen, if you say that, you are saying that others are not good enough. It's better to think that it's the heroes who are not good enough, right, Tian Ye?"
Meiko said: "Uzi, you seem to be very good at solo, but you have never beaten Yuan Shen. Do you want to continue the challenge this time?"
UZI's face changed and he said, "This is not a question of challenge. If Yuanshen and I keep winning, we will definitely encounter it. But if we lose, there is nothing we can do, right, Yuanshen?"
Yuan Shen spread his hands: "For me, it doesn't matter who I fight with, it's all entertainment after all."
Meiko laughed and said, "Master Yuan, I'm afraid that's not the way to say it. You should say it this way. It doesn't matter who you are with. I always win anyway."
Yuan Shen smiled: "I'm not that arrogant yet." (End of this chapter)
