Chapter 140: Changes in the Motherland

In 2002, the CS world landscape changed dramatically after ESC.

The situation of NIP's dominance was completely broken, and although the facelifted SK won the third place in the ESC, this did not match the fame of Potti and others.

The 3D mobile chariot can never take off the big hat of "the second in 10,000 years", the runner-up is not a bad result, but both times passed by the champion, and the 3D group returned to the United States extremely depressed;

Although coL only finished fifth in this tournament, they were not as depressed as 3D, their fame did not decline, their status did not change, and most importantly, they only had a lot of money in their hands.

The world pattern has changed to a two-power competition again, only this time the center of gravity has begun to tilt towards North America.

It all stems from the emergence of a new generation of champions.

The emergence of MDK shook the world, in addition to advertisers and sponsors poured a lot of money at MDK, the world's masters, experts, and clubs began a new round of research.

What exactly did MDK win the championship by, or is it a new championship phenomenon?

The researchers were divided into two groups, one of which believed that MDK was a flash in the pan and not worth making a fuss about.

This is not unreasonable, after all, in the final two battles of MDK against SK and 3D, in fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it was a narrow victory, and if the protracted battle really continues, the result is difficult to say.

MDK's situation is very similar to Canada's LND, the CG champion in '01.

However, the other group of people believes that MDK is an international column and a combined configuration, which must have a lot to do with the mechanism operation of the club behind it.

Only at this time did the world focus its attention on the giant behind Lu Fei - Wen Dana? Green.

Lu Fei's success, Green is undoubtedly the biggest contributor, without him, Lu Fei may still be a student at Xijing University in China, and it is impossible for a carp to jump the dragon gate and become a superstar second to none.

If 02 years ago, scouting was just the honorific title of the assistant to the head of the club by people in the circle, then after this competition, this new term was completely put on the agenda by the major giants.

Just like the professionalization of football, the discovery of potential newcomers has become an important topic.

The old way of building a wealthy golden battleship like Mr. Lake coL no longer works, and it doesn't mean that it doesn't work at all, and the necessary purchase is definitely necessary, but digging is the king of making a fortune.

Of course, who has this digging ability? This is another problem, in the Western concept, this problem can be solved only with money, then it is obvious that this kind of thing is the patent of the wealthy.

SK Club manager BDS took the lead and secretly formed a scouting team, targeting the German company esu and several Swedish e-sports organizations.

The eoL club once again released official news that the famous player Vesslan had left and his whereabouts were unknown;

coL even broke the gossip news, threatening to poach Ahl and Span, who were still in Matrix;

3D has been steady and unmoving, in fact, the manager and team leader, Miss Jenny, has formed a new small company to recruit club manager assistants from all over North America;

……

The similarity in the operation of these clubs indicates that CS commercialization has begun to mature, CS levels are improving all over the world, and people are driving CS development in a variety of ways and insights.

This is the impact that a French tournament has had on the world, and in a way, Lu Fei has really changed history.

In China in 2002, CS developed in full swing for a few months in the first half of the year, and then was knocked down by a shady scandal, and many people of insight and enthusiastic teams disbanded and withdrew.

Just when the situation formed an unmanageable mess, Lu Fei came out of nowhere, destroyed the Western powers with a devastating momentum, and rekindled the blood of the Cser, and many people had this idea for the first time: It turns out that we Chinese are not easy to mess with, and it turns out that we Chinese can do the same.

In May, there was a "land flyer fever" across the country.

As long as you understand CS, you know Lu Fei, know that he is Chinese, he is a world champion, and he is one of the top ten people in the world today, he is now playing for American giants, and many young boys and girls worship him as an idol.

Lu Fei's deeds have had a profound impact even on the treasure island of Taiwan, and the captain of Taiwan's first team XP threatened to compete with Lu Fei in the CPL in the summer and Korean CG in the fall.

This is inevitably suspected of hype, but in any case, the lifeless atmosphere of the original Chinese CS disappeared overnight, and the atmosphere seems to have returned to the good times of 01.

In May, the General Administration of Sport of the People's Republic of China officially announced that e-sports became the 99th official sport recognized by the General Administration of Sports of China.

In Lu Fei's past history, this matter will not come out until the end of 04, but now it is two years ahead of schedule, spring is coming in advance, and the hero is coming in advance.

Since then, CS has been truly accommodated by the mainstream in the motherland and recognized by the society.

Chinese Csers will no longer be branded as unlearned, idle, and unprofessional.

Looking back on the past two years in the e-sports circle at home and abroad, too many things have happened, there are surprises, sadness, excitement, and helplessness, but the dark dynasty has passed, and now is the spring of take-off.

The good news continues one after another, the General Administration of Sports of China will officially launch the official league CEG (China Electronic Sports Games) in June, which is open to major clubs across the country, as long as you are a citizen over the age of 18, whether professional or amateur, you can sign up, regardless of gender.

As soon as the news of CEG was released, the whole country was shaken, and the soldiers and horses did not arrive, and the grain and grass went first.

CEG is organized by the well-known enterprise Huaao Star, Huaao Starry Sky is officially appointed by the State General Administration of Sports Ma Tie as the highest decision-maker, and soon, clubs across the country have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, large, there are Bada, TR, BOB, Guoteng, Changchun Zhiying, Dalian Wanda, Shenzhen FIYTA, Shanghai Shanda...... Although many clubs are just empty shells, and many small clubs are only operating in the form of large Internet cafes, this is already valuable for Chinese CS.

And large-scale game battle platforms are also launched one after another, well-known such as VS, Shanda Haofang, Tencent QQ, these platforms have all entered the lives of thousands of Chinese.

CS is truly integrated into the lives of Chinese as a culture.

No one would have imagined that just one Lu Fei would set off such a big storm.

History is changed by the masses, and the history of the masses is often changed by a single person.

When he saw these news, Lu Fei really showed a relieved smile in the past half a year.

He knows that in the near future, in the C world pattern, the real "Warring States Era" is likely to come, and Asian power will soon rise.

"I believe that one day, my country will become strong." Lu Fei muttered in the office.

Green smiled: "You know, in fact, I also expect your country to become strong and have a few more people like you." ”

"Huh?"

Green said: "Lu, in fact, in the past few days, we have also discussed a lot of career plans for future development, I think you are still unstable now." ”

"Oh? How so? ”

Green stood up and said in a somewhat depressed tone: "Lu, you are only looking at the problem from the perspective of technical level and strength development now, and you have not thought about the operation of the club. ”

Lu Fei found that there was something in Green's words: "Is there another personnel change in the club?" ”

Green smiled, "You're getting smarter now. ”

Lu Fei's face changed: "Could it be that someone wants to leave?" ”

Green smiled: "No, I'm talking about the operation of funds, you have brought benefits to the club, so you will naturally consider the future growth problem." ”

Lu Fei smiled bitterly: "It's better to ask Sister Huo these questions, anyway, I don't know anything." ”

Green's smile was a little helpless: "But don't forget, the club's boss is not your Sister Huo, and the decision depends on the two bosses." ”

Lu Fei suddenly felt that something was wrong, but at this time, the phone in his pocket rang, and when he picked it up, he saw that it was Alice calling.

"Lu, my dad told Mommy that he wanted to see you, the day after tomorrow, at my house, I know you don't have a game tomorrow." Alice is very smart, and as soon as she comes, she blocks Lu Fei's retreat.

Lu Fei said: "Am I going alone?" ”

Alice smiled: "No, you, me, Sister Huo, and Mr. Green, let's go back together." ”
