Swan looked at Yang Meng's surprised expression and said, "Isn't this anything strange, okay? How popular is e-sports now? In the Stars and Stripes country alone, it can create a profit of nearly 20 billion yuan every year, and more than a million people are engaged in work related to the e-sports market! It's not strange that we are involved, right?"

"Two tens of billions of dollars?" Yang Meng was stunned when he heard this.

Swan nodded and said, "Of course, you underestimate the power of the otakus! They are very willing to spend money! And this business is a huge profit?"

"A book of Wanli?" Yang Meng asked puzzled.

Swann said with a 'hmm' sound: "The industry advertises things like millions of annual salaries and tens of millions of transfer fees every day to attract more young people to invest in this industry, what does this e-sports rely on? Reflexes! And the peak age of e-sports players is 18-22 years old, and young people in this time period are the easiest to choose blindly." So there is really no shortage of people who want to engage in esports, and there are young blood to replenish it all the time. But you also know that in any industry, the bottom is poorly treated, and the old people bully the newcomers. And this is especially true in the esports industry. So except for the top players at the top of the pyramid, most of them are difficult to support themselves with esports. ”

Yang Meng said after hearing this: "This age is also the golden age for higher education, doesn't that mean that many eliminated players have dedicated their youth to this industry, and as a result, they have nothing but game skills? ”

Swan said with a smile: "Isn't the game anchor also a pyramid arrangement?" Yang, most of the industry resources in the qualified industry have been snatched away by the first-line players in the eyes of the public, and the second-tier players are left with only leftovers. So these people have to support themselves too, so do you know what they do best?"

Yang Meng glanced at Swan's mobile phone and said unconvinced: "You mean spinach?"

Swann nodded, "Exactly." Our company has an e-sports club, which is a 'second-tier team' in the current fashionable terms, and it can't play top games, but believe me, many top e-sports clubs don't earn as much as we do!"

"The main income is through spinach!" Yang Meng suddenly realized!

Swan said with an 'um' sound: "Actually, there are a lot of second-tier team games that are held by Spinach. In the name of a regional tournament, a charity tournament, a friendly tournament, the tournament is shown to the audience, and the audience is attracted to place bets, and we make a profit by manipulating the tournament. ”

"Damn, do you have a competitive spirit!" Yang Meng burst into foul language.

Swann asked rhetorically, "Yang, do you think there is any sport in the world that doesn't have spinach。。。。。。?" What do you say e-sports teams rely on to make money? They have to make money by competitions, or they train every day until they starve to death? Moreover, the champions of these second-tier competitions may be promoted to higher competitions and enter first-class competitions, but there are only a few places, so you don't play this game? There are many e-sports clubs that want to play this game! Now investing in e-sports clubs is also a profitable business!"

"Make money?" Yang Meng was stunned after hearing this: "As far as I know, many top clubs lose money. ”

Swann shook his head: "You're right, top clubs rely on comprehensive abilities such as results, attention, and player influence to attract advertising sponsorships and make money." But if you want to set up a non-top esports club, you can make money

Money. And the investment is small and the results are fast! Let me tell you about our club, which is called the 'Las Vegas Mad Dogs Esports Club', and now participates in four esports tournaments. At present, there are about 80 e-sports players, substitute players and staff. The key is to have more substitutes, and their presence is to put pressure on the first-line players at all times. Except for the three with an annual salary of 300,000 US dollars, the ordinary main force is generally more than 100,000, and the rest of the substitutes are around 30,000. Counting the rent, equipment costs, room and board costs, etc., three million a year is almost done. And this money 。。。。。。 Sometimes the publicity operation is good, and you can get it back in a game!"

Yang Meng blinked after hearing this: ", how can I listen to what you say, I think I have less slaughtering manruizai?"

Swan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then laughed: "Yang, you misunderstood again. Since this spinach company is a company, it must not be operated by itself, behind it is a group of shareholders, and it is better to make money together, isn't it? And those players, how can you let them help you play match-fixing? Of course, it depends on money!"

Yang Meng waved his hand: "Look at you nervous, can I really go and kill Manrui again?"

"Of course not!" replied Swann without even thinking about it.

God knows if you will be distressed to find a place to reimburse Liu Yun for spending so much money to help Liu Yun get out of prison!

At this moment, the door at the end of the corridor was opened by the prison guards again, and Warden Colmont and the group walked in, and in front of them was a black woman in high heels, who did not look very old, probably in her thirties. Wearing a smart dark blue slim-fitting women's suit and black high heels, this should be the mayor of Manuel that Colmon said.

Yang Meng asked in a low voice: "The one in front is the mayor of Manuel here? This body shape is really good!"

As a result, Swann once again said amazingly: "Of course, Manuel turned out to be the only black J girl in the 'Moonlight Rabbit Villa', if she is not in good shape, can she enter there? You must know that the threshold for 'Moonlight Rabbit Villa' to enter is a white girl! Manuel is simply a legend in 'Moonlight Rabbit Villa'!"

"Poof!" Yang Meng squirted: "I'll go, J girl can also be the mayor?"

Swann shrugged his shoulders and said, "Isn't that normal? I remember what the Han saying is? Oh, heroes don't ask where they come from! But I think it's more common in the Stars and Stripes." Carson City is a small city with a population of more than 100,000 people, and it is not difficult to be mayor here, and similar things are not strange here, the 2003 California gubernatorial race was a competition between a romantic action movie female star and a Hollywood male star, and in the end the Hollywood male star won, it was Schwarzenegger, and the romantic action movie female star lost, it was Mary Carey. Oh, and Stormy Daniels, also a romantic action movie actress who went to run for the Louisiana Senate. Scott Brown was a male model of the current hospital and almost ran for president at the time; Robert Bulke, a "cowboy with a fruit" who had been performing in Times Square for many years, competed for the mayoral position with the current mayor of New York City, and MIMI Miyagi, an Asian romantic action movie actress, ran for the governor of Nevada with the slogan "I am always exposed and honest".

Action actress Elona Stora was a member of parliament and almost became mayor of Milan! Millie Deahplasou, who ran for Rome, Oh, Caterina Bochnikova of Germania almost made it to the European Parliament, and Hungarian fruit host Annika Fischer, who used to be a striptease dancer。。。。。。 ”

Yang Meng waved his hand and interrupted him: "Don't say it, I really don't understand, how can you choose these messy people to become public leaders! Do you think they will serve you better? Can they make wise decisions that benefit the people? How can they lead you forward?"

"Why do they want to lead us forward? We have our own way of life, and we don't need to be dictated!" Swann said, "These public officials can't choose too smart people, or they will interfere with our freedom!"

Yang Meng has a black line on his face, okay, this is another cultural gap.

The Han government is a standard 'paternalistic government', while the Western countries are a 'nanny government', although the people who will take care of themselves will be taken care of, but there is a real gap here. The Han government is: Listen to me. And in the West, the government listens to me. You have to stand up when I need you, and leave me alone when I don't need you!

"No wonder you chose such a president. Yang Meng complained.

As a result, Swann was also aggrieved when he heard this: "Please, although we want a stupid idiot, we don't want an idiot either!

He really meant that the most popular among the recent presidents of the Stars and Stripes was George W. Bush, and Bush Jr.'s IQ was only over 80, the lowest among all presidents, and even a little below average.

Although IQ's selection of IQ is a bit of a pseudo-scientific suspicion, we have to deny that Bush Jr. did often show some things when he was in office。。。。。。

But the voters like it.

Colmon walked to the front and beckoned everyone to be quiet, and said in a loud voice, "Welcome everyone to come to our Carson Women's Prison today in such bad weather to participate in today's open house." First of all, everyone gave a round of applause to Mayor Manuel of Carson City for providing her costume and makeup artist for today's pageant!

After he finished speaking, Manuel stood up and waved to everyone, and there were photographers at the scene who filmed the scene.

Yes, it seems that bureaucrats pose for pictures everywhere! It really is not a unique characteristic of the Han Kingdom.

There was a sparse applause at the scene, and the focus of these people was really not on Mayor Manuel.

Colmont smiled after seeing it: "I know that you are anxious to see your relatives, so I announce that this 'Prison Beauty Pageant' has officially begun!"

After listening to his words, a group of people were lying on the fence and looking at the entrance and exit of the lower floor, from where the female prisoners would come out.

As a result, Yang Meng suddenly frowned: "Hmm, things are a little wrong!"

"Not quite right, what do you mean?" Siwan didn't understand what Yang Meng meant.

A crisp gunshot answered Swan's question.
