Chapter 2301: Poor Stall
Fifth Avenue is located in the central area of Manhattan. The Tiffany flagship store at 727 has a history of more than 80 years, and its appearance still looks bright and shiny.
"Wow! This place has hardly changed compared to 60 years ago."
Ji Shengxi's exclamation attracted a lot of strange looks.
"Sister Shengxi is not much older than us, why do you have such a nostalgic tone?"
"Maybe Sister Shengxi is actually a vampire hidden in the city, and she is already thousands of years old!"
"I heard that vampires have to suck human blood to stay young?"
"You guys! Are you asking for a fight?"
Ji Shengxi raised her eyebrows, and the fools didn't dare to joke about her age, and hurried into the store to visit.
Lin Cheng squinted his eyes slyly.
The thousand-year-old royal sister vampire... Why does she seem more excited?
Ji Shengxi glared at someone unhappily.
In fact, she watched a lot of old movies to learn English when she was studying. This is also the filming location of Audrey Hepburn's "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Unexpectedly, 60 years later, the decoration of the store still maintains the appearance of the filming.
On the second floor of the flagship store, everyone finally saw the Summoner's Trophy in the glass display cabinet.
"How is it?"
Chi Shengxi asked Lin Cheng about his first impression of the new trophy.
Lin Cheng thought about it, "It's impossible to buy it for 0 yuan, the glass is so thick."
"..."
The new trophy is Tiffany's design style at first glance, simple and unique.
Compared with the previous round cup mouth, the new cup mouth has become a regular pentagon. The five faces of the trophy have the image of the summoner carved with sapphire, and the tops of the five corners are also engraved with icons representing the five player positions of the game.
From the top of the five columnar lines extending downward, there are five summoner crystals closing at the bottom, symbolizing that the honor is obtained by the joint efforts of the players in the five positions.
Apart from this, there are not many design details.
To be honest, Tiffany's design concept is fine, but the minimalist style of the championship trophy still makes some old LOL players complain.
Trophies are historical, and complex and exquisite are more pleasing than minimalist styles.
On Hupu, netizens have already commented on it.
"INS style? Too simple, right?"
"This new trophy feels a bit lame, Taobao replicas are probably a lot of them"
"Struggling for a year, just for such a stainless steel? "
"The trophy represents the champion, shouldn't it be as gorgeous as possible? Minimalism? "
"Not as good as the old version"
"Ugly! "
"I vote for Gangzi flower pot"
"The Immortal Shield next door has not been changed for 12 years, why do we have to change it? It has a sense of history after years of inheritance"
"No way, the sponsor gave too much"
The teammates were also taking photos around the trophy and commenting on the shape, but Lin Cheng thought the new trophy was okay.
His focus was not on this.
The base of the trophy is engraved with the IDs of the champion teams and players of all time.
Lin Cheng found his ID and that of his teammates from the past two years.
He pointed to the blank space at the back: "Old Dai, we have to continue to engrave our names on it this year! It's agreed that this will be your birthday gift this year."
Cuzz: "Then Hegui will be the double champion AD!"
Lin Cheng: "Please call him the first A in history! What is Bang? Imp is no longer qualified to talk about you in the live broadcast room every day."
Beryl: "So what skin will Hegui choose this year?"
Seeing his teammates opening champagne crazily, Mr. Dai was embarrassed, "Don't talk nonsense, it's not clear yet, the most important thing is to play well in the next game."
Everyone was laughing, and Rookie was staring at the place on the trophy where the names of the IG players were engraved.
The old teammates who reached the top together in Incheon!
Are you all okay?
Of course, people in Incheon are generally not good now.
Those who retired retired, those who were not wanted by anyone, and those who can still play have been at the forefront of the storm, which really made Rookie sigh.
He was also very glad that he made the right choice.
After this year, he might become a double champion mid laner.
Not knowing Rookie's feelings, Beryl was getting drunker and drunker with champagne, and discussed the details of the skin with Lin Cheng: "If I win the championship this year, I must ask Riot to make a two-dimensional style skin, otherwise I don't want a skin."
Lin Cheng suggested: "Just let Riot designers refer to the professor of the senior sister to design, and they will definitely be full of inspiration."
Beryl was a little moved, but felt that it was difficult to say such words.
Ji Shengxi asked curiously: "What professor?"
Beryl: "..."
The atmosphere suddenly became cold.
It's like when a bunch of girls in middle school were discussing the seventh dimension and Sophie, and suddenly a male classmate curiously asked what the seventh dimension was.
Everyone ignored Sister Shengxi tacitly.
Lin Cheng looked around the trophy again and again, and suddenly found a problem.
Only the names of the champion teams and player IDs after S7 were engraved on the new trophy, and none of the previous ones were engraved.
In other words...the new summoner's trophy does not have the name of T1 or Faker's ID on it.
In fact, some T1 fans had come to check in and take pictures with great enthusiasm, but they were devastated when they found that T1's name was not on the trophy. They filed complaints online, causing a lot of anger.
The explanation given by Riot is that they want to consider the future champions. The base is so small that it would take up too much space to engrave all the previous champions.
Of course, the previous glory will not be forgotten, and the old Summoner's Cup will be permanently collected at Riot headquarters.
Now KT fans are ecstatic.
In the future, they will occupy this trophy and no longer have to see the disgusting T1 name on it.
As for Tanza, there is also a self-consolation angle.
According to Riot, the old Summoner's Cup will be sealed and no new names will be engraved on it.
This means that SKT will be the only three-time champion on the old version of the Summoner's Cup. Even if KT wins the championship this year, they will not engrave the words on the old trophy.
On the ship of the old era, they can still suppress KT.
Thinking of this, I feel better for some reason.
Poor Tanza!
After seeing the trophy, everyone went to Broadway to watch the musical after dinner.
They are lucky. "Hamilton", which is known as the most influential musical in Broadway history, opens today.
Unfortunately, you can only buy standing tickets on site, and you have to stand on the top of the second floor. It must be very painful to watch for nearly three hours.
But Mr. Dai still wants to watch it.
Although these idiots have little culture, stage plays are not uncommon in Korea, and they have also heard of the most popular "Hamilton" on Broadway.
Lin Cheng thought about it and asked his teammates to wait where they were. He ran to ask if anyone had refunded their tickets.
Of course, no one refunded their tickets, but Lin Cheng had the ability to pay.
He found a black guy who looked very energetic.
"Sorry! Brother, I grabbed tickets for this play a month in advance. I don't want to let go of my dream..."
"I'll pay a thousand dollars!"
"Dreams are shit! Brother, the tickets are yours, I'll grab tickets next time."
The guy's ticket in the middle of the second-floor box cost less than 200 dollars. Seeing Lin Cheng's sincerity, he decisively gave it to him.
Then Lin Cheng used the same method to impress others one by one.
Of course, not everyone will be moved by money.
But there are always people who are moved by money.
Until the last couple couldn't resist the temptation.
Under the crazy encouragement of his girlfriend, he sold the two tickets to Lin Cheng for $2,500. The old man couldn't help but secretly sighed to Lin Cheng:
"It's good to have money. You can even buy the surprise I prepared for my girlfriend. I'm even afraid that you have so much money that you can even buy her."
"..."
