Chapter 631 Passion and Dreams!
Jakarta is located near the equator and has a standard tropical rainforest climate.
Although the temperature is not much different from that of Shanghai, the humidity is extremely high and it is located in the center of the equatorial low pressure belt. The air is relatively thin and the oxygen content is insufficient.
As soon as he got off the plane, Xing Dao felt a stuffy and suffocating atmosphere coming towards him.
There seemed to be a veil over his face.
I felt a mild cold and my breathing was not smooth, as if something was blocking it.
The situation did not improve until we checked into the hotel in the Asian Games Village and turned on the air conditioner.
Others fared little better.
UZI, who was in relatively poor physical condition, even had a visible red on his face. Before the game even started , he silenced himself...
This is also the reason why you have to arrive early.
From the northern temperate zone to the equator, the impact of environmental change is very obvious.
If you go straight into the competition without 3-5 days of adaptation, both your operating and thinking abilities will decline.
A team capable of competing for honors will certainly not allow such problems to occur.
Don’t think that e-sports is a demonstration event in this Asian Games, and the medals won are not counted in the total.
But there are also award ceremonies, flag-raising and national anthem performances.
Including live broadcasts by CCTV and all platforms that have purchased the copyright.
Its importance, influence and representation cannot be ignored.
therefore.
In addition to daily training.
The group also followed the advice of the team doctor and went outdoors to exercise.
That is, running along the road surrounding the Asian Games Village.
"Jakarta is too bad. It's the capital, but why does it feel like a slum?"
Meiko just reached lap four.
I was overtaken twice by a brown female athlete.
I feel a little embarrassed.
Just squat under the shade of the tree to cool off.
"That's good." The factory manager was more open-minded: "I heard that when the first batch of athletes moved in, there was blood on the hotel sheets."
"Wow! Is this true? This is so scary." UZI also stopped panting.
"Brother Zaozi, you are the only one in the dormitory, what are you afraid of Uzi?" Xing Dao joked: "Just get an Uzi, and you can combine the man and the gun into one. If anyone disobeys, I will shoot them with a burst of bullets."
"Brother Dao, just go ahead and blackmail me. Now that we have combined our skills, I'll fire a volley of bullets at you first!" UZI fired back angrily.
But it seems that he is used to being hacked.
No points exploded...
"It's true. I've seen the photo."
The factory manager reminded others: "So try not to go outside the Asian Games Village alone, especially at night. The security here is not very good. You can basically find anything you want to buy in the Asian Games Village."
"Who wants to go out?" Xiye looked around: "This place is similar to the vegetable market next to my house..."
to be honest.
In addition to the seven newly built small buildings in the Asian Games Village.
The other buildings are really not that great.
The Jakarta-Palembang Asian Games took a whole year to prepare and cost 500 billion to 600 billion rupiah.
The numbers are exaggerated.
Converted according to the exchange rate, it is actually only 235 million to 282 million soft.
For most individuals, this amount of money is certainly an astronomical figure.
But in terms of large-scale construction...
Let me put it this way.
Any high-rise building in the business district of a super first-tier city would cost hundreds of millions.
The more than 200 million invested by Indonesia is less than 300 million. It will not only repair the Istola Main Stadium, but also renovate the Gelora Bung Karno Aquatic Center, indoor tennis courts, basketball courts, hockey fields, softball fields, archery ranges, rugby fields, squash courts, and a conference center that includes fencing, jiu-jitsu, judo, sky islands, taekwondo, wrestling and other projects.
It is also necessary to maintain the Grolas Riverjaya Stadium and tennis courts set up in Palembang for football events.
besides.
The buildings and roads around the Asian Games Village and Asian Games venues were beautified again.
For example, the Citalon River, which is known as the dirtiest river in the world and even the Ganges is inferior to it, will be completely covered with nylon nets, and the river banks will be painted with colorful paint and filled with silk flags.
And 100,000 additional security personnel have been added to maintain law and order.
At the opening ceremony held on the 18th of this month , Indonesian President Joko Widodo took the risk of going out of his mind and entered the venue on a motorcycle. One can imagine how bad the overall situation was.
but.
Participating in the Asian Games is, at the very least, creating a milestone in e-sports, and at the most, winning glory for the country. Of course, we cannot care about the conditions.
No matter how bad the environment is, we must try our best.
August 25th.
The draw ceremony for the e-sports - League of Legends event begins.
First, the representative teams from the eight divisions were introduced.
Next, please invite the guests to come on stage and start the lottery session.
The end result is.
Group A: China, Kazakhstan, Vietnam, Chinese Taipei.
Group B: South Korea, Pakistan, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia.
A double round-robin tournament will be held within the group, with the top two teams in total points advancing.
Then the two groups A and B will cross-fight.
That is, the first in Group A will play against the second in Group B, and the second in Group A will play against the first in Group B.
Facing three teams that are not even as good as the wildcard teams, the South Korean team's advancement is not a matter of suspense, and their tactics will not be exposed in the group stage. They can be said to have reaped the benefits of the group stage.
The Chinese Taipei team was a little embarrassed.
Because there is no hope of getting first place.
If they come in second, they will not only have to fight hard against Vietnam, but will also face South Korea in the semi-finals.
You have to know that the Asian Games is a BO5 battle , and the probability of Taipei defeating South Korea is basically negligible.
Most likely, it was another time for him to accompany the prince to study...
etc.
Why say again?
The situation of our Vietnamese brothers is relatively difficult, but they are full of fighting spirit. After all, if they don’t play well in the game, they will be thrown into the coal pit to mine.
As for Kazakhstan...
The five starting players, ranging from Gold III to Diamond IV, almost shed tears when they saw China, which has monopolized the world's No. 1 position for the past two years, Chinese Taipei, one of the five major regions, and Vietnam, which has almost received the treatment of a mainstream region...
August 26th.
The national team members boarded the bus prepared by the Asian Games event group and headed to Mahaka Square in northern Jakarta.
Get familiar with the address, participate in rehearsals, and carefully check the equipment.
August 27th.
The national team once again came to Mahaka Square, took the escalator to the e-sports venue on the second floor, and entered the passage to prepare.
Wait for the host to invite the contestants to appear.
Xing Dao took the red flag from the logistics staff with both hands and was the first to walk onto the main stage.
Behind them are Faker and representatives from other regions.
As the flag bearer, he must keep his eyes straight in such occasions, so there was no eye contact between Xing Dao and Faker.
But even so, the two could feel the surging fighting spirit in each other.
"ladies and gentlemen!"
"The 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Asian Games, the e-sports exhibition event - League of Legends competition is about to begin."
The host's high-pitched voice echoed in the stadium: "Let us break through the limits with the participating athletes, show our passion and dreams, and gather together to form a huge force for all of Asia!"
