At the headquarters of the WRPO in Sioux City, about three to four hundred regular employees are busy with their respective duties, and their careers are in full swing.

The WRPO esports brand has been established, and the first competition will be held next year, which seems to be nearly a year of preparation, but in fact, the time is already very tight.

As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, and most people have no experience in running e-sports competitions, or the experience is immature, and the initial stage is relatively confusing, because on the one hand, a large number of senior Korean e-sports practitioners have been recruited, and two domestic pioneer companies engaged in the e-sports industry have been merged and acquired.

Founded in August 2005, a company called "PLU Game Entertainment Media" is mainly responsible for holding and promoting various game events, disseminating and reporting hot and key news of domestic and foreign games, and selecting and packaging domestic game masters.

The other is called "NeoTV", which was founded in early 2006, and this year's 2007 WCG World Finals was broadcast live by the company, accumulating some experience in operating and broadcasting large-scale international e-sports events.

It also has a professional program production team, and has just begun to create promotion channels in China, and is a new generation of entertainment media in the field of e-sports in the mainland.

When Bluestar Technology Group entered the market and launched a merger and acquisition invitation for the two companies, without exception, they liked to mention "Bluestar Dad" and happily sold themselves.

As the saying goes, it's good to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree.

If you don't agree to the merger, most of the talents in the e-sports industry that you have gathered will be poached.

Backed by Bluestar Technology Group, where do you have a future?

Even if you don't get tapped, you will take the initiative to jump ship, and the company will be finished, so it is better to package and sell it directly, and become an employee of Bluestar Technology.

The merger and acquisition of these two companies cost less than ¥150 million.

After integrating resources, it will move forward with new goals, and is committed to building an e-sports operator with comprehensive services such as e-sports commercialization, e-sports TV, and e-sports venues.

Bluestar Video, an online streaming video business under Bluestar Technology, also provides resource linkage, and after updating the version, it has opened up a sub-section of the e-sports zone, including the live broadcast window of the event.

In the future, when the competition is held, you will also get homepage promotion resources, and the traffic here is not ordinarily large, even if it is hung for a day, it can bring huge traffic.

You must know that the number of users of the Bluestar video website has exceeded 200 million, and the domestic online streaming video website is the absolute king.

None of the other video sites can play, because the high operating costs are not something that anyone can afford, and the high bandwidth costs are prohibitive, and even Tengxun and Baidu have not entered this field.

Without him, I can't afford to lose.

At least now I don't have the financial resources to lose, so I can only watch Bluestar Video continue to grow and develop.

Only Bluestar Technology has the financial resources to afford this huge loss, according to Bluestar Technology's financial report, the domestic version of Bluestar Video has hundreds of millions of broadband expenditures in a quarter, not counting the international version of BluestarVideo, the loss here is even more exaggerated.

Otherwise, Bluestar Technology's total revenue in a quarter is 7 billion US dollars, and the net profit is only about 1.8 billion US dollars, which is too much expenditure.

The profit margin of the Blue Space business segment is as high as 46%, which is achieved by relying on Big Brother's strong monetization ability, and although the other business segments have generated revenue, most of them are unable to make ends meet.

The online video business is definitely the gold-swallowing monster of Bluestar Technology Group after the cloud computing service project.

For those who are engaged in the e-sports industry, the inclination of this series of resources of Bluestar Technology Group, although it is insignificant for the group company, is simply unimaginable for practitioners in the e-sports industry.

However, for those who previously worked at "PLU" and "NeoTV", the future of the merger into the large group is brighter and the stage is broader, but the pressure is also great.

The first WRPO World Finals in October next year is the top priority, and the operation department is not easy at all now, for fear of messing up, and if it is messed up, it will be dead.

The Bluestar Technology Group has just established an e-sports division, and the reorganization and adjustment of the personnel of all parties is almost the reorganization and adjustment of the entire e-sports industry, and the chaos in the early stage is self-evident.

But the chaos must be followed by the great rule.

For Wang Qiwei, the secretary-general in charge of the e-sports section, he wants to die, and he has to directly lead the entire organizing committee to carry out specific work, such as media, event coordination, personnel, logistics, investment promotion, etc.

The e-sports division of Bluestar Technology Group is called the WRPO Division, and the top management is the organizing committee, but the organizing committee itself is not a legal entity, there is no additional registration, and it is nominally directly under the vertical management of Bluestar Technology, and the official seal of Bluestar Technology is authorized by the president's office.

The structure of the WRPO is that the highest leader is the director of the organizing committee, but not personally, but in the office of the president of the enterprise development department of Bluestar Technology, and Zhang Bowen, the second person of the group company, is the president of the enterprise development department, in other words, he has the authority to directly manage the WRPO.

But Zhang Bowen basically won't have time to take care of it, he manages a multinational group with tens of thousands of employees, and he has to take care of big things.

The ultimate boss Luo Sheng is even more impossible.

Unless he remembered something and suddenly came down, after arranging the overall situation of e-sports, he basically didn't ask, and he didn't take the initiative to pay attention to the situation, only at the regular meeting and the year-end summary meeting will be passively heard.

Therefore, the normal situation is that the assistant to the president's office of the enterprise development department will be responsible for the executive affairs of this area.

Under the small framework of the WRPO Organizing Committee, the director of the organizing committee is a leader who does not do specific work, which is equivalent to the chairman.

It is the secretary general who really does the specific work, that is, the current Wang Qiwei, who is equivalent to the general manager of the WRPO business department, and the next is to set up departments such as the secretariat, media, co-ordination, logistics, and investment promotion, and the manager is the department head.

How much pressure is Wang Qiwei on now?

The president's office of the enterprise development department gave him a sentence, before the end of this year, it is necessary to end the chaos of personnel and management caused by mergers and acquisitions, and report on the work at the end of the year.

In a word, the subordinates broke their legs.

It's a simple word, but how difficult is the task to accomplish?

"Secretary-General Wang, the big boss Mr. Luo is here."

"What? Why did he suddenly have time to come here? Wang Qiwei was shocked when he heard the assistant come in to report, and hurriedly walked out of the office to greet him.

Luo Sheng has indeed been free recently, whether it is a series of layouts of Bluestar Technology Group or Cote d'Azur company, he has arranged it clearly, Zhang Bowen They are still busy with work, but he is relatively relaxed.

As the founder of the company, after going through the early stages, especially the [Azure] planning stage has been completed, Luo Sheng is not as hard as before.

In addition to engaging in scientific research, other aspects of work are not to do specific work, and are ordered to be arranged to be handled by the executive level.

Even scientific research will not always stay on the front line, after all, the size of both companies is expanding, and there are many projects, and Luo Sheng cannot be busy even if he has 48 hours a day.

At this moment, the WRPO office hall is quite lively, and the office here is a classic cubicle, and most of the members sitting in each lattice are now not working, but take out their mobile phones to take pictures.

And the young man who is surrounded by everyone here is Luo Sheng, and most of the e-sports practitioners working here are also quite young, basically as old as Luo Sheng.

However, there is no doubt that the aura is not at the same level at all.

At this moment, many young employees are turning into Luo Sheng's super fans and asking for a group photo, Luo Sheng naturally readily agreed, but several supervisors here were anxious in their eyes, but they were not good at stepping forward to say anything.

Most of the young employees didn't think much about it, and they didn't know that as soon as Luo Sheng left, they would face being sprayed bloody by their boss.

When Wang Qiwei came here, he quickly locked up Luo Sheng, and his face suddenly darkened when he saw this situation, but he quickly put away this emotion and hurriedly walked up to relieve the siege: "Mr. Luo, I'm very sorry I didn't know that you would come, and there are no preparations to receive you." ”

"The WRPO business unit is well arranged, and the progress is quite fast." Luo Sheng said casually with a smile, and after speaking, he took a photo with a young employee smiling.

"Mr. Luo, please come here." Wang Qiwei said busily.

Luo Sheng nodded, and secretly said that you are finally here.

Immediately left the office hall with Wang Qiwei and came to the other party's office.

As soon as he left, the director here suddenly shouted, "You guys, and you, follow you." What did you just say? Who is Mr. Luo? How busy is work? When is this the occasion? Are you here to work or what? ”

The supervisor who lectured also immediately darkened his face, because he had just noticed Wang Qiwei's face when he came over, and he knew that when Luo Sheng left here, he would probably be called to the office by his boss and scolded him bloody, which was all light.

After Luo Sheng entered an office, he naturally came to the desk where Wang Qiwei could sit and sat down.

And Wang Qiwei was quite restrained standing outside facing him, although he was much older than Luo Sheng in age, but he was also very nervous now, and the aura that Luo Sheng had cultivated over the years was not covered.

"Can we end this messy personnel situation in the WRPO division before the end of the year? If I hold next year's competition with a team like this, I will be laughed at by the international media, and I can't afford to lose this person. Luo Sheng leaned back against the seat and said lightly.

Wang Qiwei sighed in his heart when he heard this, Luo Sheng's expectations were flat, but Secretary General Wang had already heard that he was very dissatisfied with the current situation of the WRPO.

"Mr. Luo, I promise to complete all the personnel restructuring before the end of the year, remove the dross, take the essence, and ensure that next year's event can be successfully held as scheduled." Wang Qiwei swore that he had made a military order, and at this time, he had to make a military order, otherwise he might be dismissed from class.

"I know it's not easy for you to take on this job, the people in the WRPO division are mainly from two mergers and acquisitions, the domestic e-sports circle is already chaotic, the industry is not standardized, the fish and dragons are mixed, and even most of the ugly ones are social gangsters, or they are infected with the habit of gangsters, it is very difficult to reshape an industry, things are to be done by people, personnel is not good, and the things behind the personnel problem are not solved ironclad and bad."

Wang Qiwei nodded again and again: "What Mr. Luo taught." ”

Luo Sheng smiled faintly, shook his head and said: "I can't talk about teaching, to put it bluntly, there is just one problem of personnel, a few mouse feces in the team must be cleared, and some people with past records in the gray area are all disposed of, WRPO does not need such people to 'open the way' or 'escort' to hold competitions, and it is impossible to talk about e-sports being recognized by the mainstream without removing these dross." ”

Wang Qiwei nodded again and again.

The domestic e-sports circle in this era is indeed very mixed, because there is no strong promoter, which makes this field in a situation of advancing in barbarism and disorder for a long time.

E-sports and online games are very vague, and games are closely related to Internet cafes, and most of the entertainment venues such as Internet cafes are actually not standardized.

It is often a place where young people who do not have a legitimate career like to look forward to it for a long time, and it is obvious that they are young and energetic and have nothing to do, can they not make trouble?

This trouble is allowed to happen.

These factors mesh together to create a miniature version of the "cyberpunk" circle in reality.

In addition, the blow of the "Blue Pole Beam" incident in the past few years can be said to be worse, under this harsh environment, e-sports can be on the table, and being recognized by the mainstream is a hell of a life.

Even if Luo Sheng enters the market to support it, it is not an easy thing, and it will take time to standardize the entire industry.
