(Although in the ten-year inventory, "CS Border City Prodigal" still has little hope of being promoted, I see everyone's support, thank you.) dian.. tenbookVie.do?method=vie&bid=1490 would like to get more votes)

2003 has passed, and all the events have been decided.

The Meiya Club team was not in a hurry to return to China, but received invitations from backstage owners Huo Jingde and Blatter, and went to Huo Xixian and Alice's homes for two days respectively.

Lu Fei seems to have a lot of respect for Huo Jingde, after all, he is Huo Xixian's father, and he is also an investor in Meiya, and he is also Chinese, and he has the unique temperament and charm of an Oriental in every move, and even living treasures such as Duan Jiu have a lot of respect for him.

Huo Jingde was also very pleased with Huo Xixian's great success in China, but when he saw Lu Fei accompanied by beautiful women like Alice and Erin, his heart suddenly became worried.

"It's said that you can't have both, you have to take advantage of the opportunity." Huo Jingde warned Huo Xixian.

Huo Xixian had to nod.

But Huo Jingde thought about it, Huo Xixian's success was actually brought by Lu Fei, and now it was the day of the big victory celebration, so he didn't have to say anything.

The group stayed at Huo's house for two days, and then arrived at Alice's villa.

This time it was Blatter's turn to welcome, Lu Fei was not as polite to him as Huo Jingde, and he was tired of coping with his words, the fact that he was hidden in MDK made him haunted all the time, but thinking that Alice had also paid so much for Meiya, he couldn't say anything, just hid with Duan Jiu Leiming and had a big drink.

However, Vesslan, Sophie, Xiaofei and Fang Fang were warmly welcomed, Vesslan, a former hero of MDK, chatted a lot with Blatter; The story of Xiaofei and Fangfang was also relayed by Alice to her mother Karina, who not only sympathized with the plight of the two, but also admired the fighting spirit of the Chinese, specially bought gifts for the siblings, and said that she would definitely support that remote poor mountain village.

On January 7th, CHN returned to Xijing, China by plane, and the warriors who returned triumphantly were once again treated like heroes, not only at the airport, but also in the streets and alleys where the buses passed.

On January 8th, the official homepage of the Meiya Club and the broadcast platform of Suifeng Company simultaneously released some free demos of CHN soldiers on CPL, all of which were wonderful solo shows from the perspective of Duan Jiu, Lei Ming, and Zhong Cheng.

The good news continued to come in the next half month, and the sponsors that Meiya had previously cooperated with increased their sponsorship amounts to varying degrees, especially PepsiCo.

PepsiCo added a sponsorship fee of up to $5 million for the Meiya Club, saying that in the official matches of Meiya players in '04, they must wear the logo provided by PepsiCo, and for the image spokesperson Lu Fei, an additional fee of 2 million US dollars.

Lu Fei has truly become the most valuable e-sports player in the world, and in terms of various commercial values, if other giants want to poach him, they will have to pay at least a transfer fee of up to 40 million yuan, which can be said that he alone can top a few super-large clubs.

In fact, Lu Fei's real commercial value is not large, but his social fame and influence are too great, especially the popularity of fans and the erected positive star image, which makes many people who don't understand CS love him very much.

Lu Fei's influence also drove the value of Duan Jiu and others, in addition to Duan Jiu and Chu Jian, who were originally selected by Adidas, Lei Ming finally won the favor of sports brands.

Anta, a well-known sports brand in China, took a fancy to Meiya's Lei Ming and Sophie, and felt that the image of these two people was especially suitable for Anta sneakers, and it could also form a strong contrast, Lei Ming looked strong and rough, and powerful, but Sophie was petite and cute, like a doll, Anta asked the two to play the role of husband and wife soldiers in the advertisement, and as a result, the advertisement was released and made Vesslan and others laugh: on the CPL, CHN played against a strong rival, and Lei Ming and Sophie felt that they were difficult to defeat their opponents. Suddenly put on ANTA sneakers, put on the God of War cape, put on ANTA's gloves, and immediately swept the opponent away.

"Your ad is too good, it seems that you use your feet to chop CS." Duan Jiu said.

Although the advertisement is bad, many fans have a deep impression of Lei Ming and Sophie at once, just like the advertisement of Brain Platinum, although the advertisement is bad, but it is impressive, Lu Fei is also happy for his brother, at least everyone can realize their own value in their limited careers, obtain material rewards, and have a little financial security for retirement in the future.

In terms of the club's personnel, Alice's cheerleading team has finally paid off, and Sky Entertainment has decided to officially create two members of Meiya's team, Erin and Maomao, scheduled for June, and decided to release the first album of the two showbiz newcomers.

In addition to these, Huo Xixian soon also made a move, and the Meiya chain of outlets opened a second, third and fourth in Xijing City at the same time, and at the same time prepared to draw up a plan to open a school in Xijing City, this school is undoubtedly an ordinary middle school, but with the addition of computer-related e-sports courses, specifically to train novices, and at the same time take into account the future support for poor children from the mountainous areas.

This plan was endorsed by Lu Fei, which is a truly powerful move to justify esports, and has also been highly praised by the relevant government agencies.

However, none of this good news seemed to be real good news, and Lu Fei and Huo Xixian felt that something was always missing.

In mid-January, the real good news was brought by ***.

The General Administration of Sports of China held a meeting and decided to formally establish the China E-sports Association, referred to as the Electric Association, temporarily set up a CS project under its command, and at the same time launched the Chinese's own domestic professional league - China Conter-strike Associatton Super League, China Counter-Strike Super League, referred to as CCL.

This news shook the whole country, and countless Csers rushed to tell each other, the spring of CS is really coming, and C fans jokingly call this league "Super League CS", which is 10,000 times higher than "Super League football".

The establishment of CCL, *** is indeed indispensable, he also made great efforts for the promise he made at the beginning, in recent years, the dedication to the e-sports career, as well as visiting many countries, learning from foreign excellent models, absorbing its advantages, CCL launched a loud slogan as soon as it came out: professional, professional, dedicated.

The general framework of CCL is based on the American CAL, but it is not as cumbersome and complex as CAL.

It is divided into three large levels, S-level, A-level, and B-level.

Due to the vast territory of China, the bandwidth provided by major network operators is limited, and the A-level adopts a dedicated large server designated by the General Administration of Sports for online competitions.

The phenomenon of cheating caused by uneven quality has been a cancer that has plagued Chinese e-sports for many years,And this time the Electricity Association launched CCL can be described as painstaking,From Diku、Sky、QQ、Haofang and other traditional competitive platforms have specially hired server masters、Hacker masters、And those cheating and anti-cheating experts,Jointly develop the game server,Resolutely put an end to cheating。

This server must buy genuine CS to enter,Automatically accept the system check after entering the interface,This is the same as the inspection principle of many online games,Any illegal software and parameters are generated once they are generated,Immediately kicked out,If any player is found to be cheating,Not only is it banned for life,And the club will also follow the bad luck,Make economic compensation。

The punitive measures show the determination of the General Administration of Sports to resolutely eradicate unhealthy tendencies.

The production of this server has been unanimously praised by all clubs, large and small, and Meiya is the number one big name in China, and Huo Xixian has also specially dispatched technical personnel to support it.

The A-League stipulates that only 24 teams are allowed to participate, and they must be registered by regular clubs to be eligible to participate, and the 24 teams adopt a double round-robin, best-of-three and 15-game first-win format, with the top 12 entering the S-level competition.

The S-level competition is also a double cycle, but the S-level is a cross-regional LAN event, the final league first place won the championship bonus of 100,000 yuan, the second place 50,000 yuan, and the third place 20,000 yuan, which is just the official bonus, as for those sponsorship fees obtained because of fame, the Electricity Association does not care, the Electricity Association selects the best club, the best team, the best captain, the best newcomer, and many other awards according to the league every year, and at the same time gives generous bonuses to encourage players.

The bottom 6 of the bottom 12 teams in the A-League will be eliminated, and once they are at the bottom of the points, they will be relegated to the B-League with 48 teams participating in the B-League and no restrictions on professional qualifications, and both semi-professional and amateur teams can participate.

The top 6 in the season can be promoted to the A-League, which actually provides an opportunity for semi-professional and amateur teams, because as long as you get to the A-League, you can definitely find a sponsor, even if you are unlucky enough to find it and play in the S League, you can also get a certain amount of accommodation subsidies from the Electricity Association; The bottom 12 of the B League will be eliminated and become the "blank squad".

This whiteboard team is also very interesting, because there are at least more than 100,000 teams of all sizes in the country, and if you want to enter the B level from the "no rank" unknown team, you must register at the designated registration point in each competition area before the start of each season, and you must also participate in the registration with your identity verification, and citizens under the age of 16 are prohibited from participating.

Each region has a fixed network for points battles, and the highest score will be awarded a place in the required B-level competition.

For example, in the Xijing Division, if you lead a whiteboard team, you can choose to go to the Beiyuan store of the Meiya outlet, where the dedicated server of the Electric Association is connected, and you can play LAN games there after registration, the event is not in order, as long as it is two teams that have signed up, you can immediately fight, win a game to get 3 points, draw a game to get 1 point, lose a game to get 0 points, the team that has fought can not be repeated to fight, this point will be recorded by the server system, and the results will be released on the official homepage at the same time, and the players can check it at any time.

If you don't lose a single game and go straight to the top of the regional standings, you will have a chance to enter the B division.

This tournament can be said to combine the advantages of the American League, the Korean League, and the Swedish League, and it also combines Chinese characteristics to avoid many problems and maximize the excavation of player talents.

Obviously, the team competing in the S-level is undoubtedly the elite of the national player elite, it is not like CEG, the competition areas are running around with registration, venue facilities problems, and unprofessional staff, resulting in uneven quality of the team going to the national competition, and the competition will be unwatching, just like the CG domestic finals in 02, the strong team is too strong, and the weak team is too weak.

Because no matter who wants to break into the S-rank, without going through the baptism of hundreds of games, it is impossible to get to that point, in other words, after so many games, will the level be low?

The A-level game is fierce and exciting, no matter how many you are in the league, you will always have pressure, the last six will be eliminated, then the last 12 will be desperately relegated, and the top 12 will also kill you after entering the S-level, everyone is not willing to do everything possible to squeeze into the S-level and then stop, and if you can't get that bunch of bonuses and honors, it means that the previous efforts are completely in vain.

Relative to the characteristics of A-level, B-level is cruel and ruthless, 48 teams, as high as 12 teams, the elimination rate is 25%, this probability is very scary, after all, CS players change the dynasty very quickly, evergreens like CHN and SK, the world's C arena is extremely rare, not to mention China, so everyone has to squeeze to A-level with all their lives, but the most important thing is that the B-level league gives those ordinary Csers a glimmer of hope, and they are likely to complete the transformation from amateur to professional......

Speaking of this, Huo Xixian suddenly interrupted him: "I have a question. ”

smiled: "Tell me, let's see if I can guess what you're worried about?" ”

Huo Xixian said: "Such a big event, the idea is very good, according to my experience, this CCL season, I am afraid that the Electric Association will be able to earn all ......"

Huo Xixian came out with three fingers.

Shaking his head and laughing: "No, I can't judge its commercial value now." ”

Huo Xixian couldn't help but say: "But for such a big event, how much does it cost to run it, and to run it, and reach the ideal level?" Is the Chinese government willing to spend so much money on esports, and just CS? I doubt it. ”

Clapped his hands and said: "Sure enough, he is a strong man, and he actually said the key to the problem at once, so Miss Huo, do you know how much money the country needs to spend on a Chinese Olympic champion to train him?" ”

"This ......" Huo Xixian didn't understand.
