As the chairman of the World Telecommunications Association headquarters, he did not need to participate in the daily tedious work of all kinds of big and small matters. He was more responsible for controlling the general direction and making the final decision.
But this did not prevent him from clearly seeing the overall situation of the world's professional esports circle.
Similarly, it did not prevent him from seeing the turbulent undercurrents hidden behind the seemingly calm and gentle surface.
The seven-member meeting of the World Honor Advisory Group held in Manchester not long ago was agreed and approved by Lance. After the meeting, Martin Bord returned to the London headquarters and also reported the entire process and results of the meeting to his desk.
Therefore, in conjunction with that meeting, it was naturally easier for Lance to see the current situation.
It was also easier for him to see the seemingly risky decisions in the press release in his hand and the hidden difficulties behind them.
Lance smiled slightly and gently changed the topic.
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen 001 for a long time."
"That person … I miss him a little."
One was the highest authority in the current World Telecommunications Association headquarters.
The other was the only true legend in the professional esports circle in two generations.
In the past few years, the number of times they had met and interacted with each other was not considered much.
But for Lance, he had enough admiration and respect for the chief consultant of the World Honor Advisory Group.
Martin's expression was stiff and unchanged.
"According to the regulations, the honorary advisory group meeting is held once a year. Sir Lance, if you are willing, you can probably meet with Sir 001 again around this time next year."
Speaking up to this point, the old man paused again and added expressionlessly.
"The premise is that he can attend the meeting as scheduled."
Although his tone was still serious and rigid.
But it was clear that there was a hint of dissatisfaction.
Lance listened and laughed. "Yes, 001's character is still a little lazy. He can't stand the restrictions of our World Telecommunications Association … It took a lot of effort to give him the title of honorary consultant, right? But I don't think he will be able to slack off in the near future. "
Martin's expression relaxed a little.
"Of course."
"Since the LPL division is taking the initiative to make such a huge change, it is impossible for him to withdraw from it."
"As a legend in China's esports circle, he should have shouldered the corresponding responsibilities and obligations."
Lance nodded.
"With him personally in charge of it, I'm sure we'll have more confidence in the LPL system reform this time."
"The few matches in the new season next year … should have a higher chance of winning."
This was the benefit of being able to see the whole situation from the highest point.
Perhaps many professional eSports commentators were full of praise for the second press release released by the official server. They saw the huge benefits that the changes in the press release could bring to the LPL division.
However, for Lance, not only did he see the benefits, but he also saw the truth behind it.
Such a bold and decisive decision …
As a matter of fact, he was forced to do so as well.
There were countless challenges in the new season, especially the one that was still unknown to the public. However, it was ranked as the ninth item in the Honor Advisory Group meeting. For the current LPL division, it was too important. It was so important that they could not afford to miss it.
That was why there was such a revolutionary movement.
Even if they had to pay a huge price, they had to forcefully speed up their pace. They had to mobilize all the forces in the LPL, dig out all the good seedlings, gather and select the strongest team, and compete with the world's major divisions in the new season next year.
However —
"It's still very difficult."
Martin gave his evaluation in a rigid and objective tone.
"Even if we don't consider the European and North American divisions, the current SSK team in the Korean division should be close to invincible.
"In theory, even if the LPL mobilizes all the forces, the hope of finding a team that can match up to SSK is still very slim."
Lance nodded in agreement, but then he sighed.
"Yes, to be able to achieve dominating strength, this Korean team is even stronger than before.
"That young guy … is called Han Shihao, right?
"Perhaps, after 001, he will be the second new legend to stand at the top of the generation.
"However, in eSports, it's still a pity if there's only one outstanding player. Don't you think so, Sir Martin?"
Martin's expression was still serious.
"No."
"In my opinion, this only shows that the young players of the other teams are not good enough. If they are too weak, they can't blame others for being strong."
Lance smiled and shook his head.
"Sir Martin, you're as strict as ever."
Then, as if he thought of something, the current chairman of the World Telecommunications Association slapped his head.
"Speaking of which —"
"In terms of strength, they can compete with that player Han Shihao."
"If I remember correctly, during the S1 season, there was a young man from the LPL division, right?"
Martin paused for a moment, then nodded.
"You have a good memory."
"It's been many years, I didn't expect you to still remember."
Lance smiled.
"Of course."
"Back then, because of that young guy, some small accidents happened. You and I … we were both there."
…
There were always smart people.
After the two official press releases shocked the entire esports circle, people gradually came back to their senses. They began to study and analyze the contents of the two press releases in greater detail, trying to deduce more useful information from them.
Even though they couldn't stand at the height of the chairman of the World Telecommunications Association and see the overall situation, after careful study, there were indeed people who found more valuable clues from these documents.
Especially.
This was the second official press release released by the local server.
In the beginning, even the professional eSports commentators of the local server only based on the surface of this document and praised the courage and determination of the high-level decision-makers. They thought that such a system innovation could bring more vitality to the local LPL division.
But …
Soon.
There were ordinary players and netizens who discovered an even more shocking truth.
9: 15 in the morning.
In a popular forum related to League of Legends on the Internet, an ordinary netizen posted a post.
Then, in just half an hour, the number of views exceeded 500,000, and the number of replies soared to 8,000.
It caused a stir in the entire forum.
"I'm not lying, I found the hidden secret in the second document!"
