Chapter 433: A Speech
With thousands of people on the scene, plus the 10,000 or 20,000 players scattered throughout the stadium watching the live broadcast, Jester was not the slightest nervous.
This is not the time when he first came to this world, in fact, he has experienced a lot of such a big scene before, facing the silence of the players, Jester's face first showed a very bright smile before speaking.
"Welcome to the Mars Entertainment Carnival, I've been looking forward to this weekend for a long time this year, it's a good feeling to be back here with you, I've missed you for a long time!"
As soon as this sentence was finished, there was another burst of earth-shattering cheers in the scene.
And Jester pressed his hand down several times before the cheers were suppressed.
"The video just now made me regain a lot of memories of the past, we traveled through time and space, and experienced the time process of Mars Entertainment's step by step development and growth. At the same time, it is also a video about your memories, memories of how to bring you together. β
Jester said very emotionally, he had seen the video just now, it was indeed a deep drive, since he first came to this world and completed their first arcade machine in the garage, more than five years have passed, and he has grown from an unknown youth to a person with great influence even in the world.
"Bill called me on the phone before, and he said that he had come to our carnival last year, and he was very impressed, and he complained to me at that time that they Microsoft could not organize such a carnival, and he originally planned to come this year, and I also thought that he would invite him, but because of temporary matters, he did not make the trip, and he promised me that he would be at the opening ceremony this time. Giving a long speech.,The content of the speech,Of course, it won't be the kind of long-winded clichΓ© struggle experience.,It's his game journey.,I can reveal a little bit of Bill's secret.,That is, he's the same as you and me present.,The same as an ordinary game otaku! β
Jester with Bill. Gates' anecdote was used as an opening act, and the players were clearly interested, and after Jester finished speaking, the cheers rang out again.
Although after the cheers. Jester had to keep pressing his hands down to silence the scene so that he could speak again, but every cheer like this could push the atmosphere to a new peak - you know, carnival is a carnival in the first place.
"After the accumulation of last year, this year's carnival will be more perfect, and in our carnival, what will be the content? I don't think I'll be familiar with it. Even many people have been able to memorize the carnival program list backwards, and to be honest, I still haven't remembered what the program list says? It's so trivial, why don't I show you one by one......"
"For example. The carnival is full of all the cosplay costumes you've designed and wore, cheering for your favorite esports players, and of course, it's a place for you to meet up with people who share your passions. It is also a place to simply play games and talk about games with people who are passionate. β
"And I think, isn't that what Carnival is all about?"
The cheers continued.
"Alright, alright. Don't cheer yet, there's a lot of things I want to say now, really, a lot, I don't know where to start, so well, I'll start from the beginning, and I'll review some of our glorious history with you! β
"The original intention of our previous creation of ZΓ o Mars Entertainment came from a very simple idea, what was this idea? It's very simple, that is, if we gather people who love games and have talents, and create a game that we all want to play, many of you will enjoy playing this game too, right? Can you answer me? β
"Yes!" Under the rostrum, echoing voices rang out one after another.
And Jester was very satisfied.
He didn't make any prior arrangements before, it was all a true expression of the players' own feelings, and after so many years of hard work, he really had so many players who loved and were loyal to them.
"Your answer is obvious enough, from 1984 to prove that we are right, again, I want to thank all the live viewers and the viewers who are watching the broadcast, thank you for your support of Mars Entertainment and its games over the years, and Carnival is a way for us to give back, thank you for making our dreams come true, thank you for your support. Without you, we would not be able to follow our own path freely and willfully. β
"At least half of all the achievements we have achieved today belong to you!"
Jester bowed deeply after saying this, and the audience at the scene was not convinced by his expectations, echoing his previous words with the warmest cheers since the opening ceremony.
However, Jester straightened up with a sly smile on his face.
"Do you think that sentence I just said was my last sentence at the opening ceremony? If you think so, you are very wrong, in fact, there are so many things I want to say, so this time I asked our subordinates to set half an hour for the opening ceremony, so that I have enough time to talk to you, unlike last year, the opening ceremony left me only a short ten minutes, it is too short. β
Hearing Jester's humorous ridicule, the audience at the scene burst into laughter.
"Okay, okay, don't laugh yet, let's finish the opening ceremony first, and then when you laugh, I don't know if you have played "Age of Empires", my new game, this game is very good, oh, look at your expressions should not have played, but it doesn't matter, I can guarantee that as long as you want to play, then you can play this great game in this Mars Entertainment Carnival!"
"Isn't it a bit arrogant? How can you say that your game is a great game? It seems that this is indeed the case, but, forget it, let's not pay attention to these details yet, I don't want to say that, I can't turn such a good opening ceremony directly into a promotional meeting for my own game, but I can reveal one thing, maybe some people already know, I plan to develop at least one different style RTS game every year for the next three years. β
Hearing Jester's trailer about his own new game, and almost all the fans of Mars Entertainment are Jester's fans, the player group suddenly climaxed again, although they have not played "Age of Empires", but from various ways, they already know that this is a game that gives people an unprecedented sense of refreshment.
"Okay, I'm not promoting my own game, let's get down to business!"
"Period, so many years, with the development of Mars Entertainment for many years, I realized that it is the most difficult thing to do to create high-quality great games all the time, but we can achieve the goal, it is precisely because of you, the extended members of the Mars Entertainment family, have always inspired us to move forward, our enthusiasm and passion for games and you will continue, I encourage you to communicate, talk, and learn from each other on various occasions of this carnival, and you will understand that we are all a family."
"I'm definitely not polite about this, it's really from the bottom of my heart, I really think you are with our family."
"Here, on behalf of everyone in the Mars Entertainment family, let me thank you for coming and welcome home!"
After speaking, Jester bowed affectionately again.
And many of the players on the scene have been moved to tears by Jester's speech, although what he said is not very tear-jerking, but in such an environment, he is surrounded by a group of players who are constantly cheering, and this kind of promotion of their own feelings is also very strong.
"Do you remember that earlier this year, we just announced the new slogan of our Mars Entertainment? Yes, yes, many people remember, that is, many people have many interpretations of this slogan, in fact, there are not so many interpretations, and I have already made it very clear at that press conference, that is, we make faith! Do you believe in the faith we made? β
And once again, the scene echoed Jester's question with the most enthusiastic cheers.
The answer is still obvious.
"Oh, by the way, there's one more very important thing that I forgot to say, and that's ...... Before I do that, I want to ask, in the audience, do you like esports? It's the one I just said last year, that video games can be competitive like sports! β
"Ah, I saw it, so many people raised their hands, it was great, I didn't expect me to have so many like-minded people, in fact, I'm the most devout fan of esports, and in this carnival, of course, there is a lot more about esports - of course, we have a lot more prize money than last year's carnival, more than twice as much!"
"Street Fighter project, last year's champion Daigo Umehara has also come to our arena again, I think last year's carnival should remember the 10-year-old kid, right? He was the one who won the World Championship of Street Fighter! β
Jester clenched his fists as he shook them at the audience.
And he also received the most enthusiastic response from the audience. (To be continued......) R1292
