"You really don't know?"
Hearing Lin Feng's question, Ceng Rui looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot. He deliberately repeated, "The honorary consultant team!"
Yes.
Perhaps to the average esports player, this term was a little unfamiliar, but as long as they were in the professional esports circle or had a slight interest in the history of professional esports, there was no way they wouldn't have heard of the honorary consultant team.
Just as Number Five said, the title of consultant of the honorary consultant team was only a "nominal position" and there wasn't much that needed to be done on a daily basis.
But the existence of this consultant team still played a pivotal role in the entire World Telecommunications Association and even the entire professional esports circle.
Not only was their position on the same level as the vice president of the World Telecommunications Association headquarters.
Every honorary consultant had the authority and right to speak. Even if they didn't use it lightly, as long as they did, they could play an incomparably important role.
The honorary consultant team had a total of seven consultants.
As long as they were willing, they could participate in the formulation of almost all the rules and regulations of the World Telecommunications Association headquarters.
This even included the organization and arrangement of various international level competitions, as well as the decision-making of specific competitions. To put it simply, the fate of a professional esports player could be decided by the words of the honorary consultant team.
"I don't understand."
Even after Ceng Rui explained for a long time, Lin Feng was still confused.
Next to him, Number Three couldn't stand it anymore. He rolled his eyes and interrupted.
"Let's talk about you in the S1 finals.
"Do you still remember? Because of your age, I was almost rejected by the World Telecommunications Association headquarters.
"At that time, many people from the domestic Telecommunications Association came to the European headquarters to plead for you. Old Fang, Ah Nan, and the others were all there, but it was still useless.
"In the end, it was your senior Number One and your sister Xiao Wu who appeared and settled it with just a few words."
After giving a specific example, Lin Feng finally understood and came to a sudden realization.
"Oh."
"That!"
"Then … it's really quite useful!"
Someone sighed.
He could still clearly remember the scene back then. It was really useless even if everyone else came to help and put in a good word. Those old fogeys at the headquarters of the European Telecommunications Association were simply stubborn, and their attitude was so stiff that it was obvious that they were not willing to talk nonsense with him. At that time, he was still surprised that Senior No. 1 and Sister Xiao Wu could convince those old fogeys at the headquarters … So it turned out that the halo of the honorary consultant was at work.
But as he spoke, he looked at Number Three curiously.
"Hey, Senior Number Three, why aren't you the consultant?"
His words almost made Number Three choke to death. After a long while, Number Three bluntly said with an unpleasant expression,
"I'm not interested in these flowers."
"Besides, isn't it enough to have Number One and Xiao Wu? If I'm added, wouldn't the entire consulting team be in chaos? Do you think the other guys in the consultant group will agree to it? Do you think the people at the ITC headquarters will agree to it? "
That was true.
There were only seven seats in the Honorary Advisory Group.
The weight of these seats … was who knew how many times heavier than the so-called "Seven Kings of the World", which were also made up of seven people.
And among these seven seats, China occupied two, North America occupied one, and Europe and Korea occupied two each.
If No.3 were to forcefully interfere, not only would the Chinese region have three seats, which would break the delicate balance, but they would also need to replace someone else's seat, which would definitely cause a huge dispute.
But being able to occupy two of the seats was already quite an impressive feat.
"And His Excellency Number One is the leader of the seven seats."
Mo Sheng couldn't help but interject, looking at Number One with absolute admiration and worship. Su Xue looked at Number Five curiously. "Qiao Qiao, what seat are you?"
Number Five smiled. "Fifth."
It just so happened to match her own ID.
But Su Xue felt a little indignant. "Only fifth? Why? Why can't you move up a bit? It'd be great if Number One was first and you were second! "
Number Five couldn't help but cover his mouth and chuckle when he heard this. He moved closer to Su Xue's ear and quietly explained who was in the second, third, and fourth seats in front of her. Su Xue sucked in a breath of cold air as she listened. She didn't have any objections to this seating arrangement.
But then, Su Xue's eyes lit up.
"Hey!"
"But that's perfect!"
"I'll film the interview before the match. Qiao Qiao, as the Honorary Consultant of the World Television Association, you'll take part in it as well?"
"Damn, I'll definitely be able to brag about it to the heavens. The Honorary Consultant of the World Television Association will receive an exclusive interview! I'll definitely exceed the quota!"
Indeed, even compared to the so-called top level All Stars, the Honorary Consultant of the World Television Association was definitely more important.
Moreover, those top pro players were usually seen by everyone.
But the Honorary Consultant of the World Television Association didn't easily show his face.
Mysterious and intriguing.
If they could film this kind of interview material, the effect would definitely be explosive.
"It's an interview …" Number Five hesitated, but Su Xue was already hugging his arm and begging, "Sigh, Qiao Qiao, just help me out this once. Saving the situation is like putting out a fire …"
"It's fine. Just accept it." Suddenly, Number One's voice drifted over, causing Number Five to be slightly startled. He turned to look at his fiancé, only to see Number One smiling at Number Five. "At this critical juncture, it's always good to show your face and stand on the stage."
Number One didn't directly state what kind of 'benefit' it was.
But Number Five quickly snapped out of his daze. He looked at his fiance again, then lightly nodded.
"Alright."
"Then I have no objections."
Su Xue was pleasantly surprised. "Qiao Qiao, you agree?!"
Number Five turned to look at Su Xue and helplessly smiled. "I agree … But let me say this first. I'm not very photogenic."
Hearing Number Five's affirmation, Su Xue immediately beamed with joy. "Aiya, how could that be? Our Qiao Qiao will look good no matter how you film her. Sigh, when the time comes, I'll tell the film crew to make sure you look good! You're the one and only Honorary Consultant of the World Television Association! When word gets out, everyone will definitely become your fan! "
And so, the topic was over.
After standing outside the hotel and chatting for a while, it was about time for them to go back and rest. Su Xue, who had just obtained an interview with Number Five, was still in high spirits. She suggested to Number One, Number Five, and Number Three, "Hey, they're going back to sleep. What about you guys? Are you hungry? How about we go eat supper together?"
Number One and Number Five looked at each other and shook their heads.
"We'll pass."
"Mhm. We still need to rest early."
Just as Su Xue was feeling disappointed, Number Three suddenly shrugged. "I'm not sleepy. Coincidentally, I'm a little hungry too. Supper is fine too."
Number Five smiled and said, "Alright, then you can go with Ah Xue."
Number One crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked at Su Xue and Number Three with interest.
"Yeah, it's perfect."
Number Three glanced over.
"Why do I feel like you're asking for it …"
