Chapter 30: The Dreadnought Libra Re-entering the Rivers and Lakes
However, in the competition, the mecha is not allowed to be worn, and the driver can only remotely command the mecha from the field, which is for the safety of the mecha driver.
Because of this, most of the "mechas" participating in the mecha competition have been modified into solid ones, and Tony also ridiculed this mecha competition because of this rule, which can only be called a "robot competition".
However, the competition committee did not want any casualties in the first mech competition, so they ignored Tony's taunts.
This rule is also noted in the handbook sent to the participating teams, and it will not be lifted until at least five times later, after all, everyone comes here to compete not only for fun, but also for the sake of fame and fortune, and it is not worth taking your life for this.
Because there are too few mecha players in the south, this competition is basically the clubs of these industrial cities in the north entertaining themselves, but fortunately, there are many cities on the west coast that are at the forefront of fashion, and in these cities, there are many people who pursue mavericks and want to walk on the cusp of popularity, so there are also many teams participating, but the level is a bit worrying.
And the scenic tourist cities on the West Coast account for the majority, and these places are pursuing the beauty of the car, the speed and the furious, this kind of hard iron that no woman appreciates, and there is no popularity.
This also leads to the fact that although their underground racing industry is well-developed, because of the huge profits, no one has rashly switched to mecha fighting with an uncertain future - although their technical strength can reach the threshold of mech modification.
The bloodthirsty fanged hunters have also described in the mission log that these speed-hungry maniacs from the East Coast have found a way to get their hands on some super energy, and their cars have been converted into various new energy engines, and modified cars with straight-line speeds of up to 400 km/h abound.
In the top underground races, a car that can't reach 450 km/h in a straight line doesn't even get a ticket – or even a short acceleration time.
However, the competition committee used the trade trend of these super energy sources to determine which states have the potential to promote the organic armor competition, and now it has fallen into a pit.
There are a lot fewer teams participating than expected, and the problem facing the competition committee now is that these participating mechs are mixed, and from their point of view, half of the games will be miserable, and they will really become two pieces of iron beating each other.
However, there were many more spectators than expected, which also put considerable pressure on the competition committee, and if the game was not good-looking, even ugly, then they died a terrible death.
The performance at the opening ceremony is easy to do, Oranides has a mecha that can be shot, and a team will be randomly drawn to do a fancy show, which will definitely surprise the ground.
The opening game is also very simple, several mecha clubs in the Steel City are very strong, and the mecha hobby group in the New York City Hero Training Camp is also very strong, and they can all play the mechs that should look stupid.
Even the clubs under the name of Stark Group are great, they are one of the favorites to win the championship, as long as they enter the semi-finals, they are all big clubs with strong backgrounds, so there is no need to worry.
The fear of the competition committee is that the primary competition is not exciting enough, which is actually not a disadvantage, because to be honest, in any sporting event, the primary competition is disappointing and boring.
Other competitions have been developed for so many years, and they are still like this, so the mecha fighting competition, which has just been established and does not even have a classification system, should be almost nothing - the competition committee can only comfort itself like this.
For this reason, the spokesperson of the competition committee constantly emphasized in the media that this is the first edition, many regulations, the competition system is not perfect, and the mecha is an emerging technology, and the public base is relatively weak - they specifically emphasized that the south is the weakest - hoping that the audience will give goodwill support for the competition.
But these statements are nonsense for most of the media of the North American Eagles, they just don't hear it, anyway, they are sure that the competition committee, like other events, has to hold the media, and they want to bow down to the knees of the uncrowned king, so the report is unscrupulous.
It is unknown how many of them were written by those bad ghost scholars in DC, and how many were instructed by those vampires in the South who broke their faces.
The competition committee held an emergency meeting and solicited the opinions of the bigwigs behind them, the Warden Alliance, and then the bigwigs of the bigwigs, Oranides, issued an order: leave them alone, if there are media and reporters who can't do public relations, they will be thrown out and banned from entering and reporting.
If you dare to publish news related to the mecha competition without permission, that is, without authorization, the bigwigs have hired all the lawyers of the entire TPE to fight this rights protection lawsuit.
The legal staff of the competition committee were collectively silent, not to mention how much it costs to hire the entire TPE, and how capricious the bigwigs are to anger the media, where does their courage come from in the face of the uncrowned king?
Those with deep qualifications think that TPE has become famous in several battles, and they have all been scolded by the media and defense suppliers, but they have all won, and the lawyer Jiang, who is known as the fearless Libra, has not made any moves for a long time, and it seems that his pride has not diminished.
That's right, any competition, anyone, has the right to refuse the coverage of the news media, which is the mortal enemy of press freedom: personal privacy rights, commercial privacy rights and public safety privacy rights, all of which are expressly protected by law.
But the uncrowned kings never cared about this, because most of these reported people and things wanted their reputation to be more famous, and they wished the media would report more.
Those who don't want to be reported, and don't have the ability to afford such a rights lawsuit, just the astronomical amount of lawyer's fees, and the same astronomical amount of court prepayment investigation fees, even if the world's richest man comes, he will have to go bankrupt immediately, and he doesn't need to be the richest man, as long as he reaches a certain status, the media will not be so blind to provoke you.
But the Mecha Contest seems to be an exception, and it offends the backstage of those uncrowned kings, and it is also offended by groups.
The mecha competition has its own online publicity channels, its own self-media publicity channels, and there are not a few traditional media and new media controlled by the Big Boss Watchmen Alliance behind it.
Moreover, several competitions have signed live broadcast or broadcast agreements with some friendly foreign media, and the relationship between them is complicated.
Once a nationwide case of defending the media's press rights really breaks out, then they will have another round of scandal in the international arena.
