She couldn't help but shake her head and chuckle.
It's truly unexpected that Bronya could have such a childlike nature...
They deliberately target the other party in order to get their attention.
Meanwhile, the girl on the other side, upon realizing that Mo Li seemed to be being targeted, instinctively wanted to protect her...
Isn't this just childish behavior?
Himeko guessed that she was probably jealous because she had seen Mo Li and Eden together every day these past few days.
"Let me think of a way to help you..."
Ji 870 fell into deep thought.
Meanwhile, on Mo Li's side...
Just as he was outwitting the duck, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
He intended to reach out and take it, but before he could even look down, he discovered that a delicate little hand had already slipped into his pants pocket.
He turned his head and saw that it was an elegant maid.
Rita smiled gently: "Let Rita help you~"
Mo Li didn't refuse: "Put the phone on speakerphone."
The call connected, and immediately a young woman's voice came from the other end.
"Hello, are you Mr. Mo Li?"
Mo Li subconsciously assumed that it was another company looking for girls to be their spokespeople, or that they wanted to discuss some kind of collaboration with him.
Just as he was about to tell Rita to hang up, the other party then introduced herself.
"I'm from the Olympic Committee of China. I wonder if Mr. Mo Li could spare two minutes..."
Upon hearing this, Mo Li paused in his actions and subconsciously turned to look at his phone screen.
His first reaction was... this guy must be a scammer!
Knowing full well that my name is Mo Li, they still managed to scam me. Do they think I'm stupid and rich?
But then, he couldn't help but recall what the mayor had told him earlier.
It's possible that the mascot will be a character from Genshin Impact!
Thinking of this, he immediately put down the game in his hand and picked up the phone.
Hello, I am Mo Li.
.......
Chapter 508 Kiana: What? Even lighting a fire has billions of viewers?
The sudden call from the Dragon Kingdom Olympic Committee surprised not only Mo Li.
Rita and the others around her also turned their attention to the caller, all of them extremely curious about the purpose of the call.
The sudden pause of the game aroused the curiosity of YaYa and the others in the next room, who all stood up and looked over through the glass.
Before he knew it, Mo Li was surrounded by girls.
The girls were also incredibly surprised by his conversation with the Olympic Committee.
Based on the brief description given by the other party, it was clear that their main purpose in calling was not related to the Olympic mascots.
This includes torchbearers, the opening ceremony, and many other matters.
Of course, since things couldn't be explained clearly over the phone, the girl on the phone said she would come to the miHoYo studio in person to discuss the details with Mo Li.
Mo Li naturally wouldn't refuse such a thing.
In particular, the fact that Kiana was chosen as the torchbearer... surprised him and made him feel flattered.
The Olympic torch relay...
As a prelude to the world's largest sporting event, this torch conveys not only the Olympic spirit, but also peace, friendship, and dreams, embodying the positive meaning of "passing on the flame, life goes on forever."
Mo Li could hardly help but suspect that the person who made the decision to choose Kiana as the torchbearer must have played Honkai Impact 3, or at least read the story of Honkai Impact 3.
After all, in the story, Himeko's mentor, Ragnar, gave Himeko the belief in love and hope.
Years later, Himeko passed on this belief to Kiana.
Keywords: [Passing on the torch] [The belief in love and hope]
Although this is just a fictional story.
But as mentioned earlier, the entertainment industry in this world is too underdeveloped, and most stories only have a basic main storyline.
Stories with special significance like these are mostly found in textbooks.
The moral lessons taught in textbooks are not as compelling as those in Honkai Impact 3rd, hence their limited popularity.
Now let's look at Himeko and Kiana in Honkai Impact 3.
They can be characters in a story, heroes in their own stories, or mentors to those who read their stories.
Their stories have moved countless people to tears, and the beliefs they embodied have been etched into their hearts.
The phrase "Passing on the torch, virtue will never perish" has been widely circulated online.
Even foreigners who don't understand Chinese can pronounce this phrase.
On YouTube, whenever a video about the story of "Eternal Flame" comes across, this phrase will flood the comments section.
In addition, Honkai Impact 3rd has a significant global influence...
One concert, watched online by 18 billion people worldwide simultaneously.
This is really terrifying.
Although many of these 18 billion people did not watch it because of the game "Honkai Impact 3".
But after watching the concert, those people will definitely want to learn more about Honkai Impact 3.
At that time, you will naturally see the story of the chapter "The Flame Burns Forever".
The phrase "Passing on the torch, virtue never dies" perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the Olympic torch relay.
After thinking about it this way... even Mo Li felt that choosing Kiana as the final torchbearer to light the stadium's Olympic flame... was indeed quite appropriate.
The only slight flaw is that Kiana has absolutely no achievements in the field of sports.
After all, the selection of the final torchbearer must take into account a variety of factors, including the athlete's achievements in sports and their social influence.
Otherwise, Eden would have been selected long ago.
Therefore, Mo Li believes that in addition to Kiana's influence, the IOC also saw the phrase that she spread: "The torch is passed on, and virtue never dies."
……
"Wow! Kiana is actually going to link the First Flame! 々〃!"
"Is this girl any good?"
"I'm not surprised that Eden was invited to the opening ceremony, but it's even more surprising that Kiana was chosen as the final torchbearer!"
"That's amazing!"
"I remember the torchbearer selection was completed a long time ago, so why are they asking Kiana to come now?"
As soon as Mo Li hung up the phone, the girls started chattering away.
The main subject of the discussion was naturally Kiana.
"Boss, will you agree to their request?"
Mo Li shook his head: "That depends on whether Kiana herself is willing."
Silly Goose frowned slightly: "This is no small matter. I think it's better to be cautious."
"We're just a bunch of girls making games... how could we possibly be connected to the Olympics..."
The goose's concerns were not unfounded.
Although Kiana taking the final leg of the torch relay and lighting the stadium's flame... this is a momentous occasion for both Honkai Impact 3rd and miHoYo.
But no matter what, Kiana is just an ordinary public figure.
The only unusual thing about her is her terrifyingly high level of fame worldwide.
And the reason she became so famous was simply because of a game...
It's bound to draw criticism that someone famous for playing a character in a game would take on such a "sacred" task.
Mo Li gently patted Dai'e's shoulder, comforting her, "Don't think too much about it yet. The specific candidate hasn't even been decided on by the other party."
"Besides, the IOC has a clearer understanding of this point than you do."
Besides, why can't games be related to the Olympics?
In his memory, esports has become an Asian Games event on Earth.
In this world, it's not impossible for esports to be included in the Olympics...
