The reason why Penguin Games chose the protagonist of "Strange Man in the Mountains and Seas" to become the "hero" in its MOBA mobile game is not only because the comic is very well-known, but also has a certain relationship with Meng Fan.

The MOBA mobile game is one of the first games to join the Asian Games e-sports project, in the 18 Asian Games it was an exhibition event, and now it is confirmed to become the 2202 Hangzhou Asian Games competition event, from the exhibition game to the main competition, which also marks the hope of e-sports in the near future into the Olympics.

Of course, there have been many twists and turns.

The 18 Asian Games was the first time that e-sports appeared on the stage of the Asian Games, and it was definitely a carnival for e-sports fans all over Asia.

However, at the beginning of 19, the Hangzhou Asian Organizing Committee officially announced the time of the 19th Hangzhou Asian Games in 202 and the list of 37 major sports that have been determined, but there is no e-sports!

This is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for esports lovers!

Fortunately, it was announced at the time that it did not say anything to death, but only said that "it has been determined at present" and also mentioned that the Asian Organizing Committee will also discuss the setting of follow-up projects with the Olympic Council of Asia and the Chinese Olympic Committee in accordance with the project attributes and setting principles, at least there is still a little hope.

Like in the previous 18 Asian Games, esports was not announced as an exhibition sport until a few months before the opening of the event, so in the eyes of some, there was still hope until the last minute.

For example, the International Olympic Committee has identified e-sports as an official sport, for example, Huaxia has identified e-sports as a profession, and the development of e-sports at home and abroad, including the economic value created and the number of participants, is reaching a new high every year.

Of course, there are also more pessimistic, one of which is that the partner of the Hangzhou Asian Games is Ahri Sports, and most of the games of the e-sports competition are from penguins, so I think it is impossible for Ahri to sing for the penguins, maybe there will be hope for the next Asian Games or a higher-level event E-sports, but this time it will definitely be no play.

For e-sports enthusiasts, it was a very difficult period of time before October 20, during which there was some bad news about e-sports entering Asia, such as the president of the German Olympic Committee pointed out at a meeting that there are bad factors such as discrimination and killing in e-sports, which seriously violates the Olympic spirit, for example, e-sports does not have unified standards and rules, and other issues are not suitable for medal events, such as ......

Fortunately, the situation of e-sports is getting better and better, coupled with the running of people such as Huo Qigang, chairman of the Asian Electronic Sports Federation, in October 20, the Hangzhou Asian Organizing Committee announced the follow-up supplementary competition items at the latest press conference, and e-sports as a major event is among them!

Although it is not as early as the first time that e-sports will appear in the Asian Games as an official event, it will still be a performance event as it was last 18 years, but even so, it is also a carnival for e-sports fans, a carnival of "the aftermath of the disaster".

The industry insiders are well aware of the difficulty and danger of the game, entering Asia is the premise of entering the Olympics, is the first stage, although the first step is not taken after the second step is not good, but standing still is much better than stepping back, and standing still is also a kind of progress, twice becoming a performance project, which increases the resume of e-sports to become an official project of the Asian Games, and also adds some possibilities to "e-sports into the Olympics".

Of course, the road of "e-sports into the Olympics" is very difficult to walk, in Huaxia 03 began to announce that e-sports have become an official sport to e-sports become a performance project of the Asian Games, this step took 15 years, and every step will definitely be very difficult, as for how much time it will take, with the progress of science and technology and the improvement of e-sports rules and standards, I believe it is not far away!

Having said that, the e-sports projects that have entered the 20 Hangzhou Asian Games this time still have penguin games, including the MOBA mobile game that wants to set the male protagonist of "Strange Man in the Mountains and Seas" as a "hero", and the characters written by the Olympic hardware king become the "heroes" in the game.

If, if Meng Fan is willing, they would prefer to use Meng Fan as a prototype to make a game character!

also mentioned it to Meng Fan, of course Meng Fan could not agree. Crazy, if you really want to be made into a game character, then you can't die millions of times a day!

The protagonist of "Strange Man in the Mountains and Seas" is still okay, which can also increase the popularity of the comics, and in addition, the money given by Penguin Games is indeed a lot. Although Meng Fan is quite familiar with the mobile game and knows that the game has a very strong ability to attract money, it is still a bit surprising that the buyout fee of 10 million in the first year (a one-time signing for five years, one payment a year, and an annual increase of one million buyout fee) really exceeded Meng Fan's expectations.

With the development of smart phones and mobile communications, the proportion of mobile games in games has become more and more important, and the economic value and influence created are naturally increasing.

This cooperation is a win-win situation, so the negotiation went smoothly, and both sides put forward some supplementary conditions, such as some platform resources on the penguin side to prepare for other promotions in the future, and Meng Fan's approval is required for the setting of game characters and skins, etc.;

As for the account that sends all heroes, all skins, and all inscriptions, including any heroes and skins that come out in the future, this kind of thing is definitely not worth appearing in this office, and there are a dozen around Zhang who came to wander around, and you only need to send the WeChat account or penguin number to the docking staff at any time to bind it at any time.

It didn't take long for it to be discussed, of course, such a big cooperation could not be signed on the spot, there were still some details that needed to be talked about, and Meng Fan also needed professional people, including lawyers, to be present.

Before Meng Fan's side ended, Wang Yanan's side had already negotiated, and then he went back to Hangzhou directly, accompanied by Shi 15, who will go to Hangzhou to record the program and complete the production of the last part of Meng Fan's solo album.
