At 8 o'clock in the morning on the opening day, Dong Guolang, as the host of the competition and the head of the "Heavenly Court" organization of Donghua Kingdom, accompanied by the heads of major organizations, made a public speech on television.

He first expressed his gratitude to the major organizations that supported the holding of the competition, the leaders at all levels in Donghua Country, the people with extraordinary abilities across the country, and the general public.

He mainly combined with the various major events in the world of the Donghua Kingdom in recent times, and talked about the things in terms of martial virtues, martial arts, and martial arts. In particular, the discipline of the official supernaturals in the competition was strictly declared, saying that if there were any violations of ethics and discipline, the organization and supervision system would be severely punished.

After Shangguan Conglong finished speaking, Dong Guo Lang, together with the heads of the other seven major organizations, sounded a huge gong, announcing the official start of the Young Abilities Competition.

The events in Dongming Province are mainly held in the Provincial Ability Martial Arts Hall. The Ability Martial Arts Hall, transformed from the original 80,000-person gymnasium, is the largest martial arts competition venue for the Ability in the province. 80,000 spectators were able to watch the exciting events live from the auditorium.

At this time, the eight huge TV screens above the middle of the gymnasium were simultaneously broadcasting the live broadcast of the speeches of Dong Guolang and others. After the gong sounded to announce the start of the competition, Wang Xiaoqiang, the head of the "Heavenly Court" organization in Dongming Province, also announced the start of the preliminary competition in the province accompanied by representatives of all parties in the province. The ceremonial flowers bloomed, the gongs and drums rang out in unison, and the cheers continued.

During the competition, the main stadium will be divided into four small fields, and the game will be played at the same time. Between the small farms, there are isolation areas and isolation gears of more than 20 meters. The huge TV screen is also constantly projecting the events in each small field.

Participants from all over the province lined up in multiple lines, and under the guidance of the staff of the organizing committee of the event, they drew the match numbers one by one. Then there is a large display board behind the referee's bench with the names of the contestants written on them.

Jin Yan waited in line for the lottery while watching the advertisements on the TV screen with satisfaction. Now it is the advertisement of "Dongtang Hengdao" sponsored by Jinshui Group. On the screen, a team of warriors holding the Dongtang horizontal knife are fighting with the monsters made by CG technology, and the flesh and blood of the monsters fly everywhere the horizontal knives pass. At the end of the advertisement, the handsome general covered in blood shouted a slogan: "The Dongtang horizontal knife is good, you will know it when you use it!" ”

"The Dongtang horizontal knife is good, you will know it when you use it!" Behind him, the bloodied warriors shouted in unison.

Advertising is Jin Yan's creativity. However, this idea was suppressed by almost all the members of the group headquarters led by Lin Long, the head of the exhibition and sales section, on the grounds that it was too vulgar. Jin Yan insisted that it is easy to remember, which is simple and clear, and easy to follow.

It's really easy to get started, it's too top-notch. Everyone thought sadly.

Advertisements appear not only on TV screens, but also on the fence between the competition area and the fenced area, on the display boards at the entrance, and even on the tickets.

Li Huxing, a member of the provincial competition organizing committee and director of the logistics department of the corps, asked Jinshui Group for a huge amount of advertising money. Jin Yan's eyes rolled, and he was unhappy: "Director, the products of Tianhe Tianyuan Factory have three members of the corps, and advertising the products is to make money for the corps." How can there be a reason to charge your own advertising fees? ”

Li Huxing: .......

So I had no choice but to do it.

Not only that, Jinshui Group also cooperated with Xu Luosheng's Luosheng Medicine, rented a storefront in the commercial area of the gymnasium, renovated it, and renamed it "Jinluo Pharmacy", and sent the security guard of Shuilong Security and the exhibition and sales Ke Linlong with two staff members to sell drugs such as hemostatic powder brought back from Qianjintang in the other world. On the side of Luosheng Medicine, Xu Luosheng personally sat in charge, and brought two senior trauma and internal injury doctors to diagnose and treat the injured.

In the strength competition between the superpowers, there will always be some big and small injuries. Regardless of the winner or loser, you must treat your injuries in time, especially the winner, you must quickly recover your strength to face the next round, the better the effect of the injury medicine, the more marketable, the more it will be bought at a cost!
