Chapter 603: Coronation as King
There is something Chen Guang can't do, these people don't know, but everyone understands that if there is no irresistible force, no one in the world can stop Chen Guang from being crowned king tomorrow. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Some things are so strange that even if they knew the outcome from the beginning, these people still get excited when they think about it.
The Global Dota Solo Throne Challenge has grown from scratch, with attention from low to high, from a presumptuous young man who seems to be dreaming to a hero who has practiced his skills and finally achieved great skills to be truly crowned on stage.
More and more people are following the game, and at the beginning, the number of people who signed up for the competition was millions, but the audience at the opening game has already reached tens of millions.
But unconsciously, when Chen Guang really won one hundred and forty games in a row, the attention of the Throne Challenge on this last day had exceeded 100 million to some extent.
More and more people are gradually being reminded of such a thing, and they may have learned about it from different sources.
At first, it was a joke, but now it's coming true.
A game without suspense should have been unattractive, but if everyone knew that he could really win, and he really wanted to step on the heads of all the players to be crowned king, everyone wanted to see him take this last step for themselves.
Most of those who like e-sports and are keen on e-sports are young and vigorous.
Even many post-80s generations, as former teenagers, have already embarked on one post after another with graduation, becoming the mainstay of the country and society.
But no matter whether they become so-called managers, or so-called middle managers, or section chiefs, whether they are high-spirited or serious and cold in their jobs, no one can deny that they were once young.
Employees who have just joined the work will regard these post-80s middle-level leaders as cold-faced leaders, feel that they are not close to people, and feel that they are rigid.
However, whether it is the post-90s or post-80s, who has not had youth, who has not been enthusiastic?
Time flies, and no one can get back what has been lost, only hidden in the corner of memory, occasionally in the midnight dream comes to mind.
They either hugged their wives and children, or sat by the window and looked at the dark sky outside, but their minds gradually remembered the sounds and images of the past.
We reminisce about those days, as if we were back in the old days, when a large number of people were crammed into the university dorm room, shouting and shouting, sweating and roaring in the sweltering heat of the hot summer night.
When you are forcibly killed under the tower, four TP lights up around you at the same time.
When you're being chased by five people on the opposite side and you're about to fall to the ground in the next second, your roommate descends from the sky with his half-human mammoth, and the two instruments are reversed, cutting off all enemies in their path.
When your Fire Maiden escaped with the remnants of her life and was in danger, your teammate Soul Guard beat the drums of war, and the Celestial God rushed from behind, lit his Black Emperor Scepter, held your hand tightly, and transferred his life to you with a soul severance.
When all of your outer towers and barracks are under the devastating onslaught of the enemy, you control Medusa, cling to the sword forged by your teammates with the time they bought for you, and defend the World Tree with all your might.
When you and your teammates withstand the pressure of the guard Athena, shouting in your mouth, the tower does not fall, the man does not retreat, and after being broken three ways, you will turn the tables against your fate.
When you are the assistant ghost again and again, and even lose the courage to step out of the spring, your teammate ghost finally comes out of the radiance, and he tells you, brother, thank you, and leave it to me.
When a teamfight breaks out and your teammates are shattered by the enemy's devastating punch in the face, your wandering swordsman finally finds an opportunity, roaring, roaring, flashing with golden light, summoning the power of the gods, leaping into the crowd, Stormhammer stunning all enemies, wielding the Death of Daedalus, sacrificing the lives of his teammates with the crimson blood of his enemies.
When everyone thinks that the success is in vain, and the enemy five are about to tear down all your barracks, you and your teammates sell their equipment at the same time, pull out their flying shoes, and parachute in front of the enemy World Tree, and the base is overturned.
All these memories fade away again and again under the wash of time, but they are always like assassins hiding in the shadows, inadvertently bursting out and stabbing you in the softest part of your ribs, making your heart ache and tears.
In fact, what really makes people care the most is not the game itself, but the youth and memories occupied by the game.
Our computer has long been changed from Pentium to Core, our mouse has changed from Double Swift to Razer, our keyboard has also changed from a 30 yuan street goods to a dazzling backlit mechanical keyboard with blue, red and black tea, and the environment in which we play games has also changed from a crowded dormitory full of people and hot like a steamer in summer to a high-end Internet café or our own study, and our game picture has also changed from the once rough war3 to the current Dota 2 with the origin 2 engine.
Everything is getting better and better, but the lost youth and memories can never be recovered.
No matter how good the Internet café and study are, they are not as good as the once steamer-like bedrooms, just because things are not people.
However, no matter how good the years are, they will eventually grow old.
The years are like gold, and they are always blown away by the rain and wind.
We may take a break from our busy schedules to watch the game and see that the players we once admired are now as old as we are.
We're going to be saddened by the loneliness of Sean Dota and we're going to be fighting League of Legends players, even if it's pointless.
No one can deny that games are just passers-by after all, and what remains eternal in life is responsibility, or family, or life, or work.
These post-80s and 90s generations perform their duties and fulfill their responsibilities, pulling themselves out of the angular youth and turning them into one sleek gear after another, quietly staying in the corners of this world that they need to stay in, to earn a little salary they deserve, and to continue their lives with this salary, waiting for old age, waiting to be forgotten by this era.
However, what Chen Guang has done these days has pulled back those former players, today's office workers, and "old men" with a generation gap in the mouths of young people.
They also wanted to see who could be crowned king of the game I was once crazy about and obsessed with.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the game has not yet started, but the ratings of Dachuan Satellite TV have remained stable at more than 1.5%, which is almost a new high for Dachuan Satellite TV in recent years.
Everyone knows that these people are all here for the last day of the Throne Challenge.
Bamboo culture, Chen Guang's personal live broadcast room is showing the highlights of yesterday and the day before yesterday at this time, but the number of viewers has been rising, quickly breaking through 10 million, and there is a trend of continuing to rise.
Xiao Cong's deliberately deployed server resources for this game were almost unbearable, so he made a quick decision and decided to open the second and third channels in the name of Chen Guang, mobilizing all the streaming resources that can be mobilized by the entire bamboo culture, and at least 90% of the bandwidth of the entire platform was placed on Chen Guang's competition.
The foreign live broadcast platform simply applied for Xiao Cong's second authorization, and redistributed the live broadcast signal to three different companies in Europe, America and Asia for diversion.
ESPN Sports even signed an agreement with Satoshi last night to put today's all-day overseas cable TV resources on this game.
The provincial stadium was already full and full.
No one would have imagined that an esports tournament that was prepared in a hurry would go from scratch to now a global fame in seven days.
Such a concept is almost equivalent to building a Roman city in seven days.
Someone else wants to hold a competition, and they start hyping it up a month or two in advance, and then they bring all the best players together, and finally they can get tens of millions of attention around the world.
Even the top annual TI International Invitational Tournament has only 30 or 40 million followers.
But Chen Guang's competition, from one million to twenty million, that is, from the official start of registration to the opening ceremony, only took four days.
From the 20 million at the opening ceremony to today's accumulation, it only took two days to directly break 100 million.
What is the concept of a game with more than 100 million followers?
One Olympics in the thirtieth, one World Cup in the twentieth, one European Championship in the seventh or eighth, and one Champions Cup in the third and quarters may be easier to quantify.
There are many reasons for this, but in the final analysis, it is impossible to depart from the most important point, which is that he really keeps winning, and he is turning what the world thinks is completely impossible into reality.
This goes beyond the realm of esports and becomes a challenge to the limits of one's own self.
He has made a news story spontaneous to the extreme, which is more immediate than the effect of the greatest propaganda marketing.
Others are spending money to buy headlines, he is headlines spending money to buy his news, this is the gap.
The only regret is that he didn't realize the economic value of this competition at the beginning, of course, at that time, I am afraid that not many people would believe it, and no one was willing to pay a high price for the game that he had come up with on a whim.
For example, the Olympic fee and the World Cup broadcast authorization fee are billions of dollars, but at the beginning, let satellite TV or ESPN spend tens of millions of dollars to buy his live broadcast of the game, even if it is only a few tenths of the Olympic broadcast authorization fee, this is obviously impossible, others will think he is crazy.
He picked up a big bargain for Xiao Cong and the platform company that first bought the right to live broadcast abroad, and also made a big bargain for Dachuan Satellite TV, and even the advertising sponsors only had a few small brands, and now the heads of these small brands are crazy with happiness.
But it doesn't matter, and it's no wonder who wants to, if it weren't for such a generous treatment for Xiao Cong and foreign platforms at the beginning, the other party would not be so focused on supporting publicity resources.
As long as you are not an idiot, you can imagine that Chen Guang can do a Dota Throne Challenge, and maybe next time he can also do the global car king pinnacle battle, so far he has shown a lot of means, and it is not difficult to reproduce the miracle.
Chen Guang doesn't know much about how to do business, and he doesn't care very much, but others understand it in their hearts.
Long-term sustainable cooperation is only possible when everyone works happily.
A took advantage of me today and didn't give back any benefits, so next time I can find B or C.
In a sense, Chen Guang used such a top solo throne challenge to tell everyone that he has changed from an ordinary Internet celebrity in the traditional sense to a phenomenal content provider on a global scale.
What he can offer is very simple and crude, just a show of his own personal skills, but it is extremely effective.
In the afternoon, when the sun was setting in the west, looking at the gg typed out by the other party on the screen, Chen Guang breathed a long sigh of relief, picked up the cup and drank the water lightly, feeling the faith value from the shop and stuffing it into the middle of the cup.
The belief value of the middle realm of the Dota Cup is full, with a daily production capacity of 44455, and the development of the deer song flower seems to be quite good these days.
His Weibo followers reached 15 million, the number of followers in the live broadcast room reached 4.8 million, and the total gifts received during the live broadcast for more than three days were close to 4 million in cash, and it continues to grow.
Under the policy pressure of the bare and swollen chrysanthemum, Dachuan Satellite TV forcibly broadcast live for a whole day with an average rating of 2.2%, setting a new rating record for the entire TV station.
Considering the impact on the revenue of the TV station, Dachuan Satellite TV finally decided to deduct only the most basic handling fee from the sponsorship fee of the advertising sponsor that was forcibly stuffed in the past two days, and the rest of the part, a total of 7.86 million cash, plus 1.5 million yuan of the live broadcast's own licensing fee, a total of 9.36 million cash, all paid to Bamboo Culture.
The overseas live broadcast platform will pay a total of RMB 4 million in licensing fees, 6 million in post-distribution authorization fees, and about 7.38 million yuan in gifts in the live broadcast room, deducting 15% of various expenses and handling fees, totaling 14.77 million yuan, all of which will be paid to Bamboo Culture.
ESPN paid $2 million for the live broadcast license on the last day of purchase, which was equivalent to RMB and deducted other fees, and Bamboo Culture was once again credited with 10 million RMB.
The cost of many other domestic sponsors adds up to 600,000 yuan, well, this is really quite stumbling.
In addition, on-site ticket revenue is 1.5 million......
Well, this unfortunate ticket revenue is not even enough for the stage construction fee.
However, Xiao Cong decided not to take any of the above money, and he didn't want to pay dividends at all, and even he himself would give Chen Guang an additional 20 million yuan when the game itself had already invested tens of millions of dollars!
There is no way, the publicity effect he has enjoyed during this time is really cool, which makes him so happy.
He found himself deeply infatuated with the thrill of hitchhiking, and he couldn't extricate himself at all.
A total of seven or eight days of competition, so that his bamboo live broadcast from the original domestic third-ranked live broadcast platform, jumped to the first, whether it is the number of active users or traffic, the first in both materials, such as fake and fake.
He is not stupid, he runs this platform well with Chen Guang, and no matter how much money he has, he will slowly have it.
But if Chen Guang is made uncomfortable, and the second and third generations who offend Yanjing don't say it, Chen Guang is unhappy and switches to other platforms, and he has no place to cry.
Therefore, this means that Chen Guang himself spent 2 million US dollars to toss this global feast, and in the end, instead of losing money, he made a total net profit of about 48 million yuan.
This is an exaggeration, but it is not surprising to consider that the actual impact of this game is 1 in 20 World Cups.
It is also the first time he has done this kind of thing, he still has no experience, and others have no confidence in him, if he really wants to operate in strict accordance with the model of commercial promotion, a competition of this scale, as the organizer and the most important content provider, it is natural to earn hundreds of millions.
Of course, he didn't know anything at this time, he was sitting on the gaming chair enjoying the last glory and short-term comfort of this stage, satisfied with the one-step cup in the middle of the world.
He slowly got up, his arms outstretched, and the afterglow of the setting sun reflected on him through the reflection of the glass in all directions of the Provincial Stadium, and more than seventy spotlights enveloped him in the stadium, making him look extremely tall after being crowned through the Throne Challenge.
"Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. ”
Chen Guangdao.
"Almighty Chen Guang! The strongest on the ground!"
I don't know who came up with this slogan first, and it quickly resonated with countless people in the stadium, first from the corner, and then quickly resounded throughout the stadium.
Chen Guang smiled, and as far as the eye could see, the whole audience was full of white threads of faith.
That's how it should be, and through 200 crushing victories without suspense, he told everyone with the loudest voice in history, you can as much as you want, because my Dota is already the strongest!" )
