Bai shunhua brought Chen Zhao in and introduced him to each branch.
âRPG games are the divisions of moon Godâs prophecy, Legend of the Sword, and heavenly justice Three Kingdoms. The players in this area are not fixed because these games are not purely competitive games. They usually do things like grinding for equipment and doing things like events.
âThereâs also RTS games. We currently have Warcraft and Legion conquest. Warcraft is still okay, but Legion conquest isnât as popular in the country anymore, so weâre thinking about closing this branch. â
âThis is the Warcraft training room. Iâm sure youâll be interested, Mr. Chen.â
Chen Zhao looked at it.
MG e-sports club seemed to be treating everyone equally, as they had allocated a training room of the same size to the Warcraft branch. However, this training room could fit 14 people, while there were only three players in Warcraft.
The entire training room seemed a little empty.
âBecause Warcraft is focused on single player combat,â Bai shunhua explained.âWe only need to find the star players with potential. Itâs not like FPS games, where we have to form a five-man team.â
Chen Mo nodded in understanding.
Bai shunhua brought Chen Mo around to other places before finally returning to the guest room.
âThatâs about it. Is there anything else you want to know, President Chen?â Bai shunhua asked.
Chen Mo nodded,âyes, I understand most of it.â
Bai shunhua took a cup of hot water from the water dispenser and handed it to Chen Mo,ââPresident Chen, you said earlier that you wanted to talk about the development of e-sports. What do you want to talk about specifically?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
......
Chen Zhao thought for a moment, trying to figure out where to start.
âManager Bai, does MG e-sports club have any plans to set up a division of League of Legends?â
Bai shunhua smiled.âOf course, President Chen. League of Legends is a very fair competitive game. Itâs only been released for less than three months, but its popularity in China has already surpassed Warcraft. How could we miss out on such a crucial area?â
âWeâre planning to unearth some potential stairway tree players by next month at the latest. Theyâre at least at the level of the king, so they can come to the base for a trial. As for the official formation of the team, it may be delayed a little. We can probably form a team in June and participate in some small competitions. â
Chen Mo nodded. I have an idea about the e-sports mode of League of Legends. I hope that the major clubs can form a long-term league together, just like traditional sports. â
Bai shunhua was taken aback,âlong-term League? What do you mean, President Chen?â
âManager Bai,â Chen Zhao said.âYou can imagine this.â
âThe 10 clubs in the country form 10 first-tier teams to establish a long-term League mechanism. The league has the spring and summer seasons. Each season will have the regular season and the playoffs. The playoffs will determine the champion. â
âThree teams will be decided through the points of the spring and summer competitions. They will fight in the world Finals.â
âIn a large Stadium, under the cheers of tens of thousands of spectators, two of the worldâs top teams competed for the highest honor of the year, the World Championship trophy and millions of dollars in prize money.â
âAll major live-streaming platforms and even traditional media will be broadcasting and following this e-sports event. When the time comes, tens of millions of viewers around the world will watch it.â
âManager Bai, can you imagine what kind of scene this will be?â
Bai shunhua was stunned. Chen Zhaoâs words had him dumbfounded.
Bai shunhua even had the illusion that she was a newbie who had just entered the workplace, and as soon as she joined, she met a boss who was very good at making chicken soup and making empty promises, and she was completely wrapped up in the prospect of the future.
However, Bai shunhua was the manager of the e-sports club, and she was very familiar with the local and foreign e-sports environment, so she quickly regained her composure.
He coughed twice and said,âPresident Chen, this is indeed a very beautiful picture. I also think that the e-sports industry is a rising industry. It is indeed possible that it will reach the height of traditional sports at some time in the future. However, judging from the current development of the domestic e-sports industry, Iâm afraid that it will take more than a decade for the image that President Chen is looking forward to to to be achieved.â
âItâs not that the technology isnât up to standard, but the main issue is the influence. At present, in the domestic gaming circle, Oh, or in the entire worldâs gaming circle, there was no competitive game that was as popular as football and basketball. Mmorpgs have more players, but the competition is not as good. â
âThe root of the problem is the number of players. If there arenât enough players, there wonât be an audience. If thatâs the case, organizing this competition will be a complete loss. If we lose a few hundred million, Iâm afraid that even with chief Chenâs status, he wonât be able to persist. â
âJust like what President Chen said, the audience for the competition is in the tens of millions. That means that the number of players for this game has to reach at least âhundreds of millionsâ. From the looks of it ... This is too fantasizing.â
Chen Mo laughed. Indeed, with the current development of the e-sports industry in this world, it wasnât hard to make them understand what he was talking about, but it was too hard to make them believe.
In Chen Moâs previous life, no one was interested in the S1 World Championship of League of Legends, but there were already over 8 million viewers watching the S2 Championship on the Internet and TV, and the number skyrocketed to 32 million in S3.
Indeed, if someone told you in S1 that there would be 30 million people watching an e-sports competition at the Staples Center in Los Angeles in two years, you would probably think that he was bragging.
Chen Zhao didnât plan on explaining too much, so he just said,ââManager Bai, sometimes, we need to look further. League of Legends will develop faster and faster, and this day may come much earlier than we thought.â
âHowever, the first step is to set up a long-term mechanism in the country, which canât be done without the support of the major clubs. After all, a league only has spectators. Itâs impossible to have no players. I need the big clubs to set up a perfect talent selection, training, and trading system. I need the cooperation of manager Bai and the other managers. â
âNo problem, President Chen.â Bai shunhua nodded. In fact, MG Club has been working on this, but the game developers didnât care about it and the clubs didnât have a Unified Manager, so it was always in a chaotic state. If youâre willing to spend time on this, Iâm sure the other clubs will be happy to cooperate with you. â
Chen Mo nodded,âthatâs good.â Iâll have to trouble manager Bai to tell the other club managers that the first ten teams for the league tournament have not been completely determined. It will depend on their performance to decide on which ten clubs to choose. â
âOh right, please tell them that this quota might seem like a free gift, but if they miss it, they will regret it for a long time.â
