This news came as a pleasant surprise to Lin Feng and the others.
Of course, it wasn't the type of fan who was overjoyed to find out that they were about to meet their idol. To be precise, for Lin Feng, it was purely because he didn't think that he would be able to meet an old friend and opponent in the stadium so soon.
"Shall we go and say hello?"
An Xin turned to Lin Feng with a raised eyebrow.
Ceng Rui was also helping out with the calculation. "The last time you met Phoenix … was during MSI, right?"
Lin Feng scratched his head. "Oh … I think so. We only exchanged a few words."
Zhou Wei, who didn't know the truth of the situation, was a little taken aback. Although he had heard of Lin Feng and Ceng Rui's names from Chu Fang Nan, he only knew that these two were seedlings of the new generation of the national server with great potential for the future classes.
Naturally, he couldn't put the person in front of him on the same level as Phoenix, who was ranked third among the Four Emperors.
Therefore, Zhou Wei could only laugh and shake his head as he listened to the conversation between the three of them. He felt that perhaps they were just bragging in front of him, but it was understandable. Youngsters … always loved to keep up appearances.
Of course, he didn't forget to kindly remind them:
"Feel free to look around. Call me if you need anything.
"But if you see Legend or any other professional team, don't casually approach them. After all, they're definitely wary of you at this critical juncture."
Of course he was right.
With the finals about to begin, teams like Legend and MLG had come early to the stadium to check out the venue. They were also preparing for the upcoming group stage, so they wouldn't be willing to interact with unrelated personnel.
What if their own team members and coaches were to discuss tactics and lineup issues and someone leaked it? What would they do then?
Who would bear the responsibility?
No one could afford to bear the responsibility.
Listening to Zhou Wei's kind advice, Lin Feng and the others naturally didn't try to defend themselves and nodded cooperatively.
In any case, they weren't fans of ordinary players. Being able to see the players of Legend was naturally not a bad thing. But even if they didn't see them …
In any case, they were just here to look around. It didn't matter.
…
After bringing Lin Feng and the other two into the stadium, Zhou Wei excused himself and left. As one of the people in charge of the United Kingdom branch of the China Telecommunications Association, he had been extremely busy these past few days. At this moment, he still had to continue arranging and directing the other staff of the Telecommunications Association to carry out various tasks in the stadium. It was impossible for him to really accompany the three of them to walk around the stadium from beginning to end.
The three of them didn't mind. After Zhou Wei left, they wandered casually in the stadium hall. They looked around from time to time and talked with each other about the interior decoration of Milton Stadium.
"It looks ordinary on the outside, but it's not bad on the inside."
"They have everything. Eh, these are all spotlights, right? When the competition starts, the lighting effect should be quite cool."
"The first six rows are all soft seats, and the seats at the back are all hard seats … I'll have to see if I can get a seat in the front. Otherwise, it won't be comfortable sitting in the back."
"Ah, of course. When I get back, I'll ask Senior and Sister Dance for tickets. If I really can't, Sister Snow should have some."
As they walked and chatted, the three of them walked through the corridor all the way to the arena. They could see many staff on the stage hurriedly walking back and forth.
On both sides of the arena, the computer hosts, screens, and keyboard and mouse devices for the competition had been put up. Now, they were doing the first round of debugging, which was carried out by the staff of the competition hall. It could be seen that most of them were Caucasians. Of course, there were also some staff of the China Telecommunications Association.
In fact, this round of debugging did not require the participation of the staff of the China Telecommunications Association. It was just that the LPL division had suffered a few times in this aspect of debugging before the competition. They had learned their lesson, so the China Telecommunications Association was particularly concerned about this.
When it came to the competition, winning or losing was a matter for the teams and players.
However, the staff behind the scenes had to ensure that there were many preparations before the competition.
This was also to create the best competition environment for the teams and players of the LPL division. It was to give the players as much peace of mind as possible so that they wouldn't have to waste their energy on anything other than training.
There were a lot of people working on the main stage, and all sorts of equipment were piled messily on the stage. It wasn't convenient for Lin Feng to walk up, but he didn't want to disturb them either. So, Lin Feng stood on his tiptoes and peeked at the stage. He turned to Ceng Rui and Anxin and shrugged.
"That's it."
"It's about the same as in China. There's nothing much to see."
Of course.
The real stage effects and the renovation of the entire stadium would only be revealed on the opening day of the S6 finals.
For now, they were just looking around.
… …
After walking around the stadium for a while, the three of them lost interest. After all, this was only a stadium that was nearing completion. The officials couldn't possibly turn on all the special effects just for them.
"It should be ready by tomorrow."
Lin Feng said to Anxin and Ceng Rui. The two nodded in agreement.
"All the participating teams will be arriving in Manchester tomorrow. They'll have to come over to check in and confirm their groups."
"They'll be arriving tonight, right? The three Chinese teams should be on the plane by now. "
After that, the three casually chatted about the arrangements they could make when the LPL teams arrived. Then, they prepared to bid farewell to Zhou Wei.
When they reached the backstage of the stadium, the number of staff members in sight suddenly increased.
Each and every one of them hurried back and forth.
Raising his head, he could see the many rooms at the back of the stadium. Some of them should be the field control workshop, while the other should be the team's temporary lounge and conference room during the match. The observant Ceng Rui even saw a few foreign staff members wearing the club's uniform.
"It's Legend's club uniform."
Lin Feng glanced over as well. It was easy to recognize him. His uniform had the Legend logo printed on it.
"Legend doesn't seem to be in good shape this year," Ceng Rui said.
Lin Feng nodded.
"It's not too good."
Even though Legend had Phoenix, one of the Four Emperors, the performance and results of Europe's oldest and strongest team this season were indeed mediocre. Even when they advanced to the S6 finals, they only managed to place third in the division, narrowly missing out on a spot in the finals.
"Aren't you going to meet an old friend?" Anxin looked at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng scratched his head. "He's probably busy. It's fine if I don't see him, but I'll definitely see him later."
