The time enters the height of summer in July, and the summer vacation begins.

A large number of students began to appear on the bustling streets, and they frantically released their pent-up enthusiasm for the school.

The average number of online users of Pan Entertainment Group's game platform has increased qualitatively, and even the number of registered users of foreign versions has begun to increase on a large scale.

Zhong Zixing founded Pan Entertainment, just to spread something meaningful for the establishment of the system ecology, and did not blindly let players fall into the endless cycle of addiction and krypton, so he immediately extended the anti-addiction time.

But even this still can't stop the enthusiasm of the players, even if they can't play the qualifying match, they still stay on the line.

Because, the selection of Honor of Kings officially ended in June, and it entered the summer regular season from July.

Among them, the three teams of WE acquired by Pei Haifeng, Wang Sichong's IG and Qin Feng's KING were successfully selected and competed with several other teams for the qualifying places.

As long as he succeeds, he will go abroad to participate in the first World Finals co-organized by Pan Entertainment Group and Facebook, against at least 16 teams from all over the world.

Pan Entertainment and Facebook have teamed up to hire many well-known advertising companies at great expense, which has played a very key role in the promotion of Honor of Kings, and the popularity of the first year has just begun.

However, many things don't seem to want you to get your wish, always moving in other directions, and stable development is always a luxury.

Zhao Mingcheng, who was in charge of the e-sports project, walked into Zhong Zixing's office with a heavy face: "Mr. Zhong, things are not good. ”

"What's in the way?" Zhong Zixing raised his head buried in the desk and asked.

"Today, that group of so-called experts have banded together to attack esports in major news outlets, and they have even appeared on TV shows."

When the pan-entertainment group promoted the e-sports project as a sports industry, there were already various experts who wantonly smeared it on the news, but the scattered attacks were not taken into account by pan-entertainment, and what should be done still had to be done.

But now, there seems to be other forces behind the group, twisting the loose voices into one.

......

On TV, a middle-aged man in a white robe and gold-rimmed glasses is talking to the camera.

On the sign in front of him, a series of bluffing names and a melancholy hairline look very knowledgeable, all of which add to the persuasiveness.

"Hello Professor, I am a mother of a child." In front of the audience on the side, a slightly blessed woman took the microphone and said with a sad face.

"I've been very distressed recently, my kid had excellent grades, and the teachers said that he was the seed of Tsinghua University and Peking University, but since he touched the game, he can only take two or three books in this year's college entrance examination......"

Pan entertainment company, a group of people watched this interview show around the company's screen.

"I'm still a professor, I can't find out where the professor is hanging!" The grumpy personnel directly scolded.

In recent years, the title of expert professor has been widely abused, and many people will no longer believe in what should have been a respected profession, which directly leads to the fact that many people who can afford to be professors say that no one cares.

On TV, the "professor" heard the mother who was worried about her son's question, and immediately looked sad.

"Let's take a look at the video taken by the photographer at an Internet café in the city!"

As he spoke, there was a picture on the screen, a smoky Internet café filled with dozens of machines, sometimes yelling excitedly, sometimes spitting fragrant fragrance.

Most of them looked like people who didn't have their ID cards.

After watching the video, the professor said sadly: "In recent years, the rise of online games has made many people like this mother's child who can be admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University become addicted to the false world, their grades plummeted, and they could not be admitted to the ideal university, and their future has been bleak since then." ”

"It really hurts me."

"What is an online game? A kind of spiritual D product, but now, there is still a well-known domestic company that promotes games as competitive sports and lays them down as a new industry? ”

"What is this going to do? Do you want to mutilate the flowers of the motherland in your youth? ”

The professor said that he was excited, and the whole person sat up from the chair: "We jointly petition to let this company give a satisfactory explanation to all parents in the country!" ”

"Give me an explanation!"

"We want an explanation!!"

The audience in the audience was aroused and began to yell one after another, making it impossible to see whether it was the parents who really cared about their children, or the extras who were invited.

......

In the conference room of Pan Entertainment Group, several executives frowned.

This was expected when the industrialization of e-sports was formalized, but it was really unexpected to arouse national public opinion like this.

"I guess someone is adding fuel to the fire, and they don't want our pan-entertainment group to continue to be stable."

"Behind this matter, it is impossible for only one or two companies to promote, it must be a joint team with a plan and premeditation."

If interests are violated, it is the enemy of life and death.

On the surface, the game industry is thriving because of the pan-entertainment game platform and supporting various entrepreneurs, and after the game engine of the Neutron Star Information Technology Department is launched, the whole industry may be more prosperous.

But if you really want a family to dominate, it is impossible for a small group of people who are used to being the boss to turn a blind eye.

Even if pan-entertainment has begun to lay overseas channels, so that more domestic games can be exported to the outside world, it is not surprising that there is infighting.

"What we need to do is to eliminate the prejudice against esports in the mainstream of society, even though it's difficult." Zhong Zixing glanced around.

Ten years after the boom in the esports industry, there are still people who openly and implicitly oppose competitive games as competitive sports.

This is a subjective ideological problem, and it is very difficult to reverse it.

A stubborn person, who accepts one statement in his subjective mind, will completely dismiss another view and will no longer be willing to believe in objective opinions.

Why did it develop like this? Zhong Zixing has thought about many of these kinds of questions.

First of all, we have to start from the time, the start time of development is too late, and the previous generation has not accepted similar views at all, so how can we support it?

Another important reason is that in the past few years, the domestic game market really seriously damaged the first impression of that generation, so that the older generation was not the first to see the gameplay of the game, but to directly see the worst side of the game.

So, they don't want to accept it.

"It's business as usual." Zhong Zixing is a very serious idealist who is willing to believe that everything will work out for the better.
