Chapter 383: The E-sports Professional League of the Xiuzhen Realm
In the restaurant of a certain city in the Xianliu Continent, hundreds of monks gathered together, and almost the entire hall was crowded with people, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the big screen on the wall not far away. It was a large screen more than eight meters wide, almost the size of a theater screen, and the latest news video was being played, and everyone was attracted by the content.
Since the large screen began to be sold online, many restaurants will get one in their own place to attract customers, everyone can watch the news, while exchanging opinions, the reason why so many people are here today is also because of this reason.
Not to mention, with the addition of such large screens, the business of many restaurants has also increased to varying degrees, and the customer flow and turnover have gradually increased. Because many monks who know each other well, they like to gather in groups and sit in the hall of the restaurant, drinking and chatting, discussing the latest news, and watching all kinds of information broadcast on the big screen.
Especially on the days of competitive games, the number of customers in the restaurant is often full, and many monks who have participated in the gambling and purchased their own support team to win will gather with their friends to cheer for the support team. That kind of lively atmosphere is more exciting than watching the live broadcast on the mobile phone alone, and many businesses have also taken a fancy to this situation and launched various preferential activities.
After more than ten years of development, the influence of competitive games on the Internet has been gradually increasing, and now it has become a group that cannot be ignored. Not only the Xianluo Continent, but even the Xianliu Continent has also appeared a lot of competitive teams, and there are also their exclusive fan teams, these people are the source of income for restaurant merchants.
Anyone who participates in the lottery will be able to receive a bottle of spirit wine by showing proof of ticket purchase. And a snack. Although this kind of discount is not very expensive, most of the guests are casual cultivators, and they naturally value the spirit stone, and this small discount is enough to attract many guests.
Betting on competitive games is just like betting on the World Cup, for a wide audience. It's an opportunity to make money. Although winning or losing is uncertain, everyone is happy, it doesn't matter if you buy the wrong one, drink a few more bottles of wine, vent your emotions, win better, buy a few more bottles of wine to celebrate. As long as there is no trouble, all the restaurants are most welcome to watch the e-sports event. And the e-sports competitions on the Internet, as long as it is the regular season, there are several games every day, and there is no worry about no business at all.
Since the first competitive game tournament held by the mysterious organization, this kind of competitive game full of confrontation has attracted more and more monks, and naturally there are various interests. In order to emulate the professional leagues on the earth, Su Yaowen referred to the operation on the earth. Founded the e-sports professional league of the Xiuzhen realm.
There are many different esports professional leagues on the planet. And the population of the Xiuzhen realm is also quite large, and Su Yaowen deliberately came up with four professional alliances in order to make reasonable arrangements. After the opening of the network of the Senliu Continent and the Antarctic Continent, the number of professional leagues has increased to eight, and the number of players who can support has reached 100,000, and the monks who participate in e-sports betting. It has broken a billion people.
There is no specific region or race for these different professional leagues, and any team can join one of them, but once you apply, you can't change other leagues for ten years. In order to maximize the number of players. Each professional league has four grades, such as the Premier League and League One, which are mainly to distinguish players of different strengths.
A professional league has four tiers, each of which can accommodate sixteen teams, and the entire professional league can accommodate sixty-four teams. Coupled with the addition of the eight professional leagues, there are more than 500 teams in total, and the number of e-sports players that can be accommodated is definitely more than 4,000, and these 4,000 people are only the number of players in one of the e-sports games.
E-sports games have developed to the present, in addition to the games that Su Yaowen first got up, the game teams that have emerged in the Xiuzhen world over the years have also provided some good games, and now the number of well-known competitive games has long exceeded single digits.
It's like "Bloody Deathmatch" and "Legend of Heroes", which have been in the market for the longest time and have the largest number of players and viewers, and these two games have five players at a time, and the main team plus substitutes, the standard number of players in each team has reached more than eight. According to a rough estimate, the number of players that can be supported by all competitive games combined is definitely more than 100,000 people.
After many e-sports players become famous, they will naturally accept a lot of fans, and those businesses are like wolves that smell meat, and after realizing the value of these players, they have asked them to sign advertising contracts, which has increased the players' income and made more monks yearn for the industry of professional players.
E-sports games are very talented, and not everyone has such talent, so the monks who can be among these 10,000 people are naturally very lucky. However, those who are not talented will not be discouraged, because they also love the game, and with the passion of esports betting, everyone's enthusiasm is even higher.
With gambling, it is easy to fake a fight, Su Yaowen also considered this situation at the beginning, although there is a program control designed by Xiaomi, there will be no modern fight, but it is difficult to prevent someone collecting money and releasing water. In order to minimize this situation, the winning team in each match will be able to get a large amount of rich spirit stones.
In addition to the prize money after the victory, the mystery organization also has a special life, and the mobile phones of all contestants, friends and relatives and friends, will be locked for the relevant betting games. If it is to buy themselves to win, of course it is okay, once they find out that they buy themselves to lose, they will be accused of fake play, directly disqualified as a professional player, and they will not be able to return to the professional league for the rest of their lives.
A carrot is followed by a stick, and this method also works well. While increasing the prize money for victory, it also increases the severity of punishment, so as to extinguish the idea of these players to fake fights. At the beginning of the league, there were also many people who took risks, and after being discovered, they were directly disqualified as professional players, which scared many people and let everyone know. The occult organization is not just talking.
The bonus after each team wins is not the same, after each victory in the First Division, the winning team can get a hundred top-grade spirit stones as a bonus, that is, 10 billion mobile phone bills, and each team member can get a lot.
And with the league level dropping. Naturally, the victory bonus should also be appropriately adjusted, which is understandable, otherwise how to highlight the strength of the players in the First Division. After winning the second division, you can get 5 billion mobile phone bills for each game, the third division is 2 billion mobile phone bills, and the D division only has 500 million mobile phone bills.
Since each esports professional league is divided into four grades, it is natural that because it is necessary to remain competitive, the relegation system has also emerged, otherwise those teams in the first division will not move. Inertia inevitably arises, and this cannot be tolerated.
The relegation system is also very simple, just copy the mature operation method on the earth, and last for most of each season, and the rest of the season is the rest of the season. Throughout the season, all teams will play two battles against teams of the same grade, with the winner earning three points and the loser getting no points. Draws are worth one point each, and they are ranked according to the number of points. It's the same as the rules on Earth.
At the end of the season, the bottom three teams in each bracket will be relegated to the lower league, while the top three teams in the lower league will naturally advance. With the relegation system, it will be easier for teams that are in the top half of the table and get closer to the end of the season. The teams at the bottom of the rankings are getting more nervous, for fear that they will be relegated.
You must know that there is a big gap in the victory bonus of each grade, although there is still a chance to re-promote in the next year after relegation, but in one year, you will earn a lot less spirit stones. This is what everyone can't bear. All levels of leagues, in addition to the bonus income after the victory, the two teams that play can also participate in the broadcast share, and the higher the level of the league, the more viewers will naturally be attracted, and no one wants to be relegated.
Towards the end of the season, the most intense competition is not the teams in the middle of the rankings, but the two teams that are one and the other. Those who are at the top of the rankings naturally have to hold on to the front row and get a lot of bonuses at the end of the season. And for the teams at the bottom of the rankings, the punishment of relegation alone is enough to make them tremble.
The D League is already the worst league, and if you're still in the bottom three, you'll be embarrassed that your team will be removed and replaced by a new team. The profits of the e-sports professional league have long been familiar to the majority of monks, and in the entire cultivation world, the number of new teams formed every year is also more than hundreds, so there is no need to worry about teams without substitutes.
In order to screen out new teams, all teams that sign up for the Pro League will play a round of peripheral round-robin matches before the start of the new season, and the 32 teams with the highest scores will get tickets to the D League. As for those teams that have been eliminated from the D-League, they can also re-register the following year and challenge the world of the Pro League again.
Recently, after the mysterious organization opened the ultra-long-distance teleportation array, the esports professional league also had a major earthquake, because the mysterious organization changed the playoff stage of the esports professional league from an online event to an offline event. In other words, all e-sports players will gather together for face-to-face matches, and this news directly caused a sensation in the entire e-sports circle.
Although the eight major professional leagues operate separately and are not managed in a unified manner, after each season, a round of playoffs is held to determine the final winner. The teams that are eligible to participate in the competition will only select the four teams with the highest points from the first division of each professional league, implement a best-of-three elimination system, and finally determine a championship.
The championship of the eight major professional leagues, what kind of supreme glory is that, in the entire Xiuzhen world, among the more than 500 teams, there will only be one champion, that is, the strongest king, for any player, it is enough capital to be proud of. And in addition to fame, the championship is also very lucrative, and the mysterious organization will give 50% of the broadcast revenue of the playoffs of the eight major professional leagues to the championship team as a winning bonus.
Although there are fewer games in the playoffs, each team is one of the top four in the first division, and its own strength has long been recognized by everyone. The matches between these teams are naturally more intense, more technical, and the audience they can attract is also increased exponentially, and the benefits are naturally more amazing.
What's more, the eight major professional leagues are separated, and the top teams in each league, if they want to play against teams from other leagues, can only pass the playoffs. All the top teams have their own fixed fan groups, and almost every fan will think that the team they support is the best in the world, so this honor is a major event that all players and fans are very concerned about, and the number of viewers is naturally terrifying.
In the past, the playoffs were all held online, and there was no difference from the general regular season, because the players of the eight major leagues were divided into different parts of the Xiuzhen realm, and it was difficult to gather these players together, so everyone didn't mind. You must know that among all the professional players, in addition to the monks of the human race, there are also many creatures of other races, such as the demon beast clan, or the snake spirit clan, and there are also many clansmen who have joined the professional player industry.
Although there are many players of other races in the eight major professional leagues, the popularity of some players is no worse than that of Terran players. It's like some of the players of the snake spirit clan and the mermaid clan, because these two races have more women than men, most of the contestants are stunning beauties, and many otaku in the cultivation world are attracted to them and have switched to their camp.
After the news of the ultra-long-distance teleportation array was announced by the mysterious organization, the playoffs were quickly changed to be held offline, and all the players would be gathered together. This is great news for the fan base, as they have the opportunity to get up close and personal with the teams they support and even get to meet the goddesses, which is what makes them the most happy.
In many restaurants in the Xiuzhen world, many people are watching news reports about the mysterious organization's reform of the playoffs of the eight major professional leagues. Many monks were discussing, if the teleportation fee was not expensive, everyone would definitely come to the scene to support the team of their choice, after all, it was not a chance to meet many professional players, and they could not easily miss it.
Hearing the praise of those fans of e-sports games for the mysterious organization from Xiaomi, Su Yaowen couldn't help but show a smile, which is another great merit. As a game house from the earth, being able to see such a brilliant achievement of e-sports games in the Xiuzhen world, Su Yaowen, as the leader, can't help but give birth to supreme glory.
