December 11, Sunday.

The second day of gpl pre-season, the knockout stage of ioi qualifying.

Zhao Xuming arrived at the ioi qualifying competition venue early as yesterday, urging the staff to debug the equipment and prepare for the start of the competition.

Today's four teams have also arrived at the competition site early. They have to play a bo5 in the morning and afternoon. The schedule is very tight and the pressure is high.

Originally, there was not much pressure on the three veteran teams including sug. After all, the three spots were originally a carrot and a pit. There was a weak team that could be bullied at will and qualify no matter what.

The No. 1 seed can play directly from the quarter-finals, and there is still a need to compete. There is no need to compete for the second and third seeds, as long as they can qualify.

But now a fv club has appeared out of thin air, and there are no longer weak teams among the four knockout teams. Anyone who doesn't play well may be directly eliminated, and the pressure comes instantly.

In the lounges of various clubs, players are carefully preparing tactics, or seizing the time to relax for a while, recharging their energy, hoping to maintain a better competitive state when the game starts soon.

At this time, Zhao Xuming's assistant hurried over with a serious look on his face.

"Mr. Zhao, the investigation into the fv club matter is clear!"

"These players were indeed sold to them by the clubs in GPL. With Wu Yue's financial resources, it is definitely impossible to afford them. Most of them are half sold and half given away."

"Moreover, these players are from different GPL teams. There must be someone in the middle to coordinate. Wu Yue, the owner of FV Club, does not have this ability."

"Only Tengda's President Pei can make these clubs willingly hand over these players!"

"So it is basically certain that there must be Tengda's shadow behind FV Club, and this club may even have been bought by Tengda!"

"I even suspect that clubs like shg are the first to go to various clubs to poach the potential players of ioi. They have already planned it and are part of President Pei's plan!"

Zhao Xuming's expression also became serious, and he nodded slightly: "As expected."

Yesterday, Ding Gan told Zhao Xuming about the doubts of fv club, but all the actions of fv club were in compliance with the rules of the game, so Zhao Xuming was powerless and there was nothing he could do against fv club.

But being powerless doesn't mean doing nothing.

For the sake of safety, Zhao Xuming asked his assistant to seize the time to investigate the details of the FV Club, hoping to find out their true purpose.

The assistant is also very efficient and has roughly checked everything today.

Zhao Xuming silently remembered it in his mind and asked: "Is there anything else worth noting?"

The assistant nodded quickly: "Yes, Mr. Zhao! According to the information from our staff, a mysterious man wearing a mask came to the scene of yesterday's game and also went to the lounge of the FV Club! Judging from the name Manager Lu called him

, most likely Mr. Pei himself from Tengda!"

There are also tournament staff in the lounges backstage of each club. Although Pei Qian wore a mask, Manager Lu's name for him had revealed his identity.

Zhao Xuming couldn't help but frown, with a surprised expression: "It's Mr. Pei himself? Are you sure?"

The assistant nodded: "From the information currently available, Mr. Pei looks similar to his stuntman, very young and consistent in appearance. Manager Lu called the mysterious man wearing a mask 'Mr. Pei', very respectfully; he came out of the lounge

Later, Wu Yue accompanied him to leave very respectfully, and also called him 'Mr. Pei'."

"In addition, I also asked Mr. Ding Gan of Sug Club. He met Mr. Pei himself and admitted that Mr. Pei was indeed present in the studio."

"Based on the comprehensive consideration of this information, this mysterious man wearing a mask is probably Mr. Pei himself."

Zhao Xuming frowned slightly: "Ding Gan knows about this?"

The assistant nodded: "I know, but he didn't take the initiative to tell us. He only admitted it when I asked."

Zhao Xuming snorted: "This Ding Gan, is he still a little emotional about my previous handling method?"

"Don't worry about him, just make sure it's indeed Mr. Pei."

Zhao Xuming couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

President Pei actually came in person?

What is his purpose?

Zhao Xuming had an instinctive fear of Mr. Pei.

Because Mr. Pei's previous record was too impressive, gog has been advancing rapidly, killing all sides at home and abroad. It is rare to find an opponent, and the top management of the Dayak Group has also been dealt with without the ability to fight back.

During Zhao Xuming's simple fight with Mr. Pei, he was tortured to the point of losing his temper, and unknowingly suffered from "Peiphobia".

Now that he heard that Mr. Pei was personally present in this studio, Zhao Xuming felt even more instinctively panicked.

However, he quickly calmed down.

"There's no need to panic. He's just an ordinary person, not a murderous demon. Even if he comes here, it's just to supervise the battle on site. What can he do in our territory?"

The assistant nodded: "That's what Mr. Zhao said."

"Maybe it's because there have been rumors in the outside world that Mr. Pei has always been a miraculous person. Once he takes action, he is sure of victory, and he never fights unprepared or uncertain battles. So we are a bit overwhelmed."

"Then, Mr. Zhao, what should we do now?"

Zhao Xuming frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

"Mr. Pei came to the Magic City in person. I think it probably has two purposes. The first is to spy on the enemy, go to the scene to see our layout, and know yourself and the enemy. After all, a lot of information is inaccurate if it is relayed by others. You have to see it yourself.

Only then can we confirm the details; the second is to supervise the battle on site, cheer for the fv club members, and hope that they can successfully get a place in the qualifying round."

"So, he kept a low profile. He came alone and even wore a mask because he didn't want to be discovered by others."

"He thought that he had never shown his face online and that no one would notice it without anyone noticing, but he didn't expect that this information was just caught by us! If he can use it well, he might be able to make a nice splash.

Turn around..."

The assistant could feel that Zhao Xuming seemed to have thought of a great idea, so he did not dare to interrupt his thoughts and waited quietly aside.

Zhao Xuming suddenly slapped the table: "Yes!"

"Mr. Pei keeps a low profile and doesn't want to show up and attract attention, so we just did the opposite and widely publicized the fact that Mr. Pei came to see the ioi qualifying competition!"

"Find the seat where Mr. Pei is, and then the director will give him a close-up, and then communicate with the two commentators in advance to let them welcome Mr. Pei's arrival!"

"Then I bought the navy in advance and went online to build momentum. The content was also very simple. I just said that Mr. Pei would not watch the gpl league but watch the ioi qualifying tournament. This shows that the ioi qualifying tournament is more beautiful than the gpl league, and it triggered Tengda

A sense of crisis, which shows that ioi is starting to exert its strength, and gog’s dominance in the country is about to be threatened!”

"In short, transfer all the heat from Mr. Pei to the ioi qualifying competition!"

The assistant couldn't help but his eyes lit up: "What a good plan, Mr. Zhao!"

"Mr. Pei came all the way to the Magic City, sneaking in to spy on the enemy like an assassin. However, we welcomed him with great fanfare. This made it appear that we were aboveboard, while Mr. Pei was sneaky! In terms of mind and temperament, he invisibly took over.

Got the upper hand!"

"Moreover, Mr. Pei is here to watch the Ioi qualifying tournament instead of the GPL league. As long as we make a big fuss about this, we can steal a large part of the popularity of the GPL league. It's perfect!"

"I'll make arrangements right away!"

The assistant was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Zhao Xuming again.

"Wait a minute!"

"That alone is not enough."

"In this way, you should be prepared for both things. FV is the first in Group B to qualify. We will play the second in Group A first, and we will see the results in the morning."

"If the fv club crushes and wins, then don't mention the fv club and don't bring heat to the fv club."

"If the fv club wins with difficulty, they will probably not be able to beat the top spot in Group A and won't be able to win the No. 1 seed."

"If this happens, we will expose the relationship between FV Club and Tenda Group before the game starts in the afternoon!"

"We can say this: Tengda worked hard and spent huge sums of money to build the fv club, but in the end, it was beaten violently by our ioi club. President Pei's face was ashen when supervising the battle on the spot."

“Isn’t this another big wave of popularity and traffic?”

The assistant nodded fiercely: "Mr. Zhao is brilliant!"

In terms of the staffing of FV Club, if they get the No. 1 seed, Zhao Xuming will have no choice but to pretend to be dead and will not take the initiative to spread the relationship between Tengda and FV Club; but if FV Club loses, then Zhao Xuming can add insult to injury.

, step on it a few times and enjoy the heat.

Of course, how to do it depends on the game situation in the morning.

Zhao Xuming was in a good mood, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up.

"Mr. Pei, Mr. Pei, you are not perfect. You are omnipotent, but you will also show flaws!"

"I appreciate your courage to go to the meeting alone, but aren't you giving away the warmth? I'll accept it with such kindness but disrespect!"

…

The game scene.

Pei Qian, like yesterday, wore a mask and sat in the front row to watch the game.

Yesterday, Wu Yue and Manager Lu wanted to host a banquet, but Pei Qian decisively refused.

The players of the fv club must seize the time to review the game after the game, sum up their experience and have a good rest. After all, there are two bo5 games tomorrow, which will consume a lot of physical energy.

So Wu Yue didn't insist and just sent Mr. Pei back to the hotel.

It may be because of the change of environment, or it may be because Saturday's game left some unpleasant memories for Pei Qian. He didn't sleep very well last night, and today he is a little bit out of energy, and his whole person is wilted.

.

But it doesn't matter, it's just a game anyway.
