Reminiscence: "Okay, then let's enter our post-match interview session. This time the interview guest is the mvp player Black who just won a good start for nrg. Let's transfer the screen to the interview booth."
The audience was very surprised, and the post-match interview
I haven't seen this link in other e-sports competitions before, but the audience immediately cheered at the thought of seeing idol players.
When the screen changed, a tall and beautiful girl was already preparing to interview the mvp Xiao Hei.
"Okay, welcome to the post-match interview session. I'm the host Nana. This post-match interview also invites the jungler black of the nrg team. Let's say hello to everyone."
The host Nana handed the microphone to Black.
Black looked a little shy, and said into the microphone: "Hi everyone, I am Black, Jiang Hao, a jungler from NRG."
The audience burst into cheers again, and the shouts of "Black God" and "B God" were endless.
Nana: "The first question, the first-level regiment's invasion blue buff is caught after the attack. Is it a tactic that has been designed from the beginning, or is it a temporary idea?"
Black thought about it for a while: "Well, in fact, invading and grabbing the blue is a well-designed tactic, but I didn't expect the sword girl on the opposite side to press the line so far, so I grabbed him by the way, and killed him unexpectedly."
"So it was just 'by the way', right..." Nana was a little speechless, "Okay, then the second question, let's evaluate the opponent this time, and your own performance."
Black paused for a while: "Uh... the opponent is also playing pretty well, and their strength is also very strong. Then, maybe our cooperation here is better."
Nana: "Okay, the third question, there are many fans who support you at the scene this time, is there anything you want to say to the fans?"
Black looked at the camera: "Well, thank you all fans for your support. And this time my parents are also here, and I really want to perform well in front of them."
Nana nodded: "That's right, this time our organizer also invited the families of the professional players to the scene. Has the director found the location of Black's parents?"
The picture on the big screen turned and cut to the auditorium. Jiang Hao's parents were sitting in the auditorium. Jiang Hao's mother kept showing her thumbs up to the big screen with tears in her eyes.
Nana: "Okay, thank you very much for accepting our interview, player black, then everyone can take a break and continue to look forward to the next game!"
…
This time, Chen Mo specifically asked the organizers to invite the parents of the domestic players to the competition site. For some parents who came from other places, they would also provide air tickets, board and lodging.
This is not only to allow these players to play harder, but also to establish an impression on the national audience and the parents of all professional players: e-sports is not an Internet addiction.
Although the concept of this world is more open than that of the previous life, the development of the e-sports industry is relatively lagging behind. Many traditional families do not accept the concept of "e-sports".
Among the active professional players, many of them had fierce quarrels with their family members before playing professional games, and some players even kicked the door and ran away from home to play games.
If Chen Mo wants to build a complete e-sports ecosystem, the first step is to reverse people's misunderstandings about e-sports, and the best way to reverse this misunderstanding is through the World Championship.
Huge capital investment, high prize pool, tall venues, cool opening ceremony, teams from all over the world...
All of these can make these parents with more traditional ideas realize that e-sports is a new thing and has very good prospects.
The process from disapproval to approval of these parents will also affect more people, including the audience watching the live broadcast. This is equivalent to a benchmarking effect, allowing more and more people to realize that e-sports is also a A competitive sport.
…
The competition schedule this time is basically determined according to the s finals of Chen Mo's previous life. Sixteen teams will compete for a month to decide the championship.
October 5th to 8th is the first round of the group stage, 12th to 15th is the second round, 19th to 22nd quarterfinals, 28th and 29th semi-finals, and November 5th is the final.
The games are basically arranged in the weekend afternoon, which is convenient for the audience to watch the game, and it is also convenient for audiences in other countries and regions to watch the live broadcast.
The popularity of the scene has been very high since nrg won the first victory, and the popularity of the major live broadcast websites is also constantly rising.
Moyu live broadcast platform "League of Legends" s1 World Finals official live broadcast room has more than 2.3 million people, and all kinds of bullet screens have been completely swiped, all of which are "congratulations nrg" and "nrg awesome".
After nrg won the first victory, the official forums of "League of Legends", various forums, post bars, and Weibo were all discussing this finals. Many players began to watch the live broadcast of this game.
The reaction of the players can be described as "running around and telling each other".
"Have you watched the "League of Legends" finals? NRG has already won a game!"
"No, who is the opponent?"
"I forgot what it was called, a European team!"
"European teams? Are teams from other countries also here?"
"They're all here, there are teams from Europe, America, and Korea, and there are four domestic teams!"
"Where is it, I want to watch the beating of foreign teams!"
Obviously, this kind of foreign war will always be the battle that inspires the most sense of honor. Teams that play well in foreign wars are easy to attract fans and most likely to resonate with players.
NRG's clean first game has attracted more and more domestic players to pay attention to this game. Some players who didn't watch the game or pay attention to domestic teams have also begun to understand these teams and star players.
…
In the auditorium, Chen Mo was flipping through his phone.
The competition party is counting the number of people watching the finals through various channels in real time. So far, this number has reached 6.5 million!
Most of the spectators here are from China, and there are some overseas, but the number is only a small part. After all, this game is not that important to overseas players, and there is also a problem of time difference when watching it.
The main channel for players to watch the game is the major live broadcast platforms, and many people watch it on the client terminal or the official website.
This number has already made the organizer Yanhuang Technology very excited. This is a real 6.5 million people, enough to crush any major anchor on any live broadcast platform, and even surpassed any previous e-sports competition!
Just the opening game of the group stage has attracted so much attention, what kind of enthusiasm should it be when it comes to the finals
