Chapter 215 [Justifying the Name of E-sports]
[Thanks and add more to the "Yingying" hall owner, there are five watches today, and ask for votes in the front row by the way.] ]
——
On the afternoon of August 27, Sioux City.
More than 100 media have come to the headquarters of Bluestar Technology Group early and waited for a long time at the venue where the conference was held, and e-sports practitioners across the country are all paying attention to the progress of this press conference.
There is no doubt that this is the second time that the e-sports industry has gained unprecedented attention in the mainstream media after the "Blue Pole Beam" incident, the difference is that the last time the entire industry was hit hard, and this time it is likely to be a situation of nirvana rebirth.
In fact, it is more sad that many e-sports people are afraid of being reported by the mainstream media, because it must not be a good thing, and every report makes the whole circle tremble.
But this time is different, and countless esports people are extremely excited and excited today.
If it weren't for Bluestar Technology, the e-sports industry would probably still not be concerned by the mainstream media, and the attention would also be negative news.
……
At about 15 o'clock in the afternoon, the media conference was held on time, and when Luo Sheng attended the press conference, the media reporters and some e-sports practitioners who came to the scene felt stunned.
After reacting, the e-sports people present were excited.
They thought that it was great news that Bluestar Technology Group would enter this industry, but they never dreamed that even the ultimate boss of this large group would come forward in person.
This shows that Bluestar Technology attaches far more importance to entering the e-sports industry than they expected.
In less than ten minutes, many groups have begun to spread the news frantically, this time everyone really believes that the e-sports industry is about to usher in an unprecedented nirvana rebirth, this kind of good thing related to the future of practitioners, how can you not be excited?
On the other hand, major media reporters were also very surprised that Luo Sheng actually attended the media conference, and it seems that Bluestar Technology really attaches great importance to the e-sports industry.
After a while, Luo Sheng took a seat in the position of the chief of the press conference, and after testing the microphone for no problem, he said directly: "Good afternoon, everyone, I will host this media conference. ”
After a short pause, Luo Sheng spoke in an orderly manner: "The e-sports industry as an emerging field has aroused our strong interest, and our group company is very happy to explore this new field, and even is committed to becoming a leader in this emerging field. ”
These words have undoubtedly excited countless esports people.
Luo Sheng continued: "On the question of the 'WRPO' event, I would like to briefly explain here, which is the abbreviation of 'World Ready Player One', which translates to the meaning of 'World Ready Player One'. ”
I see, many e-sports people who have been puzzled for a long time suddenly realized.
Next, the head of the WRPO Interim Organizing Committee undertook the press conference, revealing the specific rules of the event, as well as the selected esports projects.
At this moment, all major e-sports people who can't come to the scene are watching the live broadcast on Bluestar Video, and the industry insiders who come to the scene want to spread the latest situation here in real time through mobile phones or laptops.
", in the end, it's a big group entering the arena, the WRPO event was born as the world's top, and the WCG was directly surpassed by the rhythm."
"Didn't you notice that the person sitting next to Luo Sheng was Li Junhui, an executive of ICM? ICM is the organizer of the WCG, and now it has been poached. ”
"The scale of the WRPO is absolutely complete to the rhythm of the WCG, and the flow is cheating (broken sound)!!"
"The number one player, this name is handsome and super powerful."
"This title and the WRPO Trophy are definitely the highest honor that all gamers and pros can only dream of in the future."
"It's safe to say that the esports industry changed overnight, but it's the big change that everyone was looking forward to."
The press conference continues, and after the main issues about the WRPO event are announced, Luo Sheng will take over the press conference again, and the WRPO Organizing Committee will further disclose the specific details of the follow-up.
After a while, I saw Luo Sheng said: "With the slogan of 'Breaking through the Limit, Surpassing Ourselves' as the WRPO, and with the goal of promoting the global development of e-sports, we are looking forward to the birth of 'Number One Player'." ”
"In terms of WRPO investment, we have decided to spend a budget of 11.5 billion yuan, about 1.5 billion US dollars excluding exchange rate changes, to promote the global development of the esports industry. Large-scale investment will be the key to the WRPO event becoming the world's highest honor, the highest gold content, the highest level of competition, and the highest popularity. ”
What the?
When everyone heard this data, they were directly stunned.
Crazy, crazy!
It's absolutely insane, such a terrifying scale of investment is equivalent to three times the scale of the entire esports industry, is it really not bad money?
Or is the future of the esports industry really promising?
Otherwise, when will this investment be recouped? How juvenile? Will it be lost?
Under normal circumstances, referring to mainstream sports events, they all obtain income through sponsorship and advertising.
How many sponsors does the esports industry have?
Isn't that crazy what is it?
After coming to the scene from shock, the e-sports industry people could no longer suppress the excitement in their hearts, and shouted and applauded vigorously on the spot.
Don't say anything, Bluestar Technology's "family bucket" is right, Azure mobile phone is right, can't you buy it...... Buy, buy, buy.
"Bluestar Technology is really generous as always, and it doesn't treat money as money at all." A media reporter present said with emotion.
"Hey~~ Isn't it, last year's revenue was hundreds of billions, and in the first half of this year, the revenue exceeded 100 billion, and it is said that Bluestar Technology now has hundreds of billions of cash reserves alone......" The partner next to him said this, and he didn't know how to continue.
Can you do whatever you want with money?
Time passed, and the press conference entered the final question-and-answer session of reporters, and the reporters present were called to ask questions one after another, and the spokespersons also answered them one by one.
The fourth reporter who was named stood up and asked: "Thank you for the spokesperson, the reporter of "New Youth Daily" asked, we found that the recent announcement of Bluestar Technology's entry into the field of e-sports has caused widespread heated discussions and controversy in the society. Do you have any response to this? ”
Luo Sheng immediately preemptively said: "Let's talk about my opinion on this issue." First of all, I would like to correct your wrong concept, video games and e-sports are two fundamentally different concepts, on November 18, 2003, the General Administration of Sports of the People's Republic of China officially approved, e-sports as the 99th official sports competition. ”
The country has already set the tone, and it is important to have a clear concept.
Then Luo Sheng continued: "Then e-sports is a kind of sports in which video game competitions have reached the 'competitive' level, although it was born from games, it has gone beyond the game itself. What is Esports? It is a kind of competition between people who are fair confrontation through electronic devices, and games are only a carrier of e-sports, and e-sports is also a great test of people's reaction, physical strength and thinking ability, which is exactly the same as traditional sports. ”
"Esports players are athletes, and when the players play a wonderful and beautiful operation, the fans and spectators at the scene will all scream with excitement, just like a beautiful goal on a football field. In fact, not to mention other sports, in the current environment, in the eyes of parents, as long as you don't study, it is a waste of time, whether you are squandering sweat on the court or playing games in an Internet café, parents think so. ”
"Because in the eyes of parents, anything that children decide to do on their own is risky, and it is safest to go only according to their arrangement, that is, they feel that as long as they can be admitted to a university, and then arrange a job, it will be good to live a good life."
"But at the same time, I still want to warn every young person who wants to become a professional e-sports player, this is a very, very difficult road, if the admission to Fudan University and Peking University is a single-plank bridge, then becoming an e-sports professional player is a tightrope."
Why? The WRPO Trophy says it all – Ready Player One. Becoming a professional player is not simply about playing a few games, but they have a very clear goal to climb up, and the ultimate goal is to become a champion and become the number one player, but there is only one. ”
At the end, Luo Sheng finally added: "I think the dreams pursued by everyone in their hearts should be different, and they should all have their own colors, so that the world will be wonderful, otherwise it will be too monotonous, and the world should be like this, so there are different occupations, different lifestyles, and the dreams pursued are different, but the same thing is that they are all in order to realize the value of their lives, they are all great, and there is no distinction between high and low dreams, and we should all respect dreams and respect everyone who chases dreams." ”
After a moment of silence, there was an uproar, and the audience applauded warmly.
Countless esports people have tears in their eyes at this moment, and finally a figure with huge influence has stood up for them.
Only they can realize what a precious thing this is.
You know, nowadays professional players or esports practitioners don't even dare to tell their people and family about what they do, because once they do, they will be looked down upon, considered a plaything, and not doing their job.
In order to chase the ideals in my heart, I suffered too much white eyes and was not recognized, which is actually quite frustrating.
One can imagine how touching it is to see a super boss who can stand up and correct their name in person.
At this moment, Luo Sheng is the "number one player" in the minds of countless e-sports people who have persisted until now and made people chase their dreams.
In addition to moving, more is exciting, countless e-sports who want to give up their dreams in their hearts have enough reasons and hopes to persevere, and people who have been forced to give up their dreams in desperation If the dream in their hearts is rekindled again, they also have reason and hope to regain their dreams to chase.
