Nothing is more eye-catching than this image.
No matter how shocking the special effects are, they can't compare to the reality of this scene.
This is also the first public showdown in the supernatural world in history.
As soon as the two sides came into contact, a fierce battle broke out.
"A beautiful sword aura, can the North American team dodge it?"
"Escaped...wait...this sword energy is directed at the rear team members!"
"It was a close call. Fortunately, the North American Storm team opened the shield. Otherwise, the North American Storm team would have been reduced in number."
The battle on the field was in full swing, and the commentators outside the field were also full of excitement.
The first battle lasted for more than ten minutes and was almost high-energy throughout.
However, neither side seemed to want to reduce their numbers in the first round, as both sides' magic power was somewhat bottomed out.
They decided to cease their activities for the time being, and all of them exited the battle circle and disappeared into the jungle.
"Let's switch the screen to other teams and see what others are doing now." The off-field commentator continued his work.
At this time, the screen switched to an ugly egg-shaped monster.
This monster has three faces, located on three sides of the egg shape, and two feet.
"Dot, do you know what this thing is?"
"Please, you two are the professionals, okay? Although I did some tutoring on professional knowledge before the game, this is obviously not within the scope of my knowledge."
"Guess it."
"Warcraft?" Dot replied hesitantly.
"No, it's actually evil spirits called Soul Eaters. Doesn't it look funny? In fact, it's just their disguise. They will attack psychics, then absorb their magic power, and finally explode themselves. It's a very dangerous thing. Plant evil spirits.”
"If ordinary people encounter it, how should they deal with it?"
"In fact, it is easiest for ordinary people to defeat it. If a psychic fights it, 80% of the magic power of the magic attack will be absorbed by it. Only less than 20% of the magic power that can actually cause damage to it will have an effect. But ordinary people don't have magic power, so ordinary people can fight with them boldly, and as you can see, its physical combat is very weak, and an adult can basically hammer it to pieces."
"Isn't it enough for the psychic to dismember it and fight it hand-to-hand? The physical body of the psychic has been strengthened, right?"
"When you get close, it will also absorb the opponent's magic power, so the psychic should not come into contact with it, unless you are an enhanced type and can blow it up with one punch."
"The reason why it is placed here?"
"It's a type of environmental trap. The two teams not only have to be wary of each other, but also of the traps hidden in the dark."
…
Chen Zhao is currently with Steven in a private room.
"How's the data?"
"The number of viewers in North America for the first ten minutes was 50 million, and now it has grown to 80 million," Steven said.
"That's less than half the Super Bowl record."
"This is just the first game of the regular season. Do you know what this concept is? The opening game of the NFL's regular season does not exceed the peak value of 30 million. You know that just now, there have been more than 20 brands of various types. They asked me about the naming fees, and all of them are first-tier or super first-tier brands, ranging from sports brands to fashion brands."
Steven said excitedly, while turning his gaze back to the court: "But the first game... can we win?"
According to the calculations of the commentator and host, the North American Storm team's winning rate is only 40%.
Steven was still a little worried about the outcome of the game.
No matter who it is, everyone hopes that the first game will have a good omen.
"Seventy percent." Chen Zhao said.
In fact, he cheated.
Because Chen Zhao also hopes to win the first game.
However, what Chen Zhao did was very covert, that is, he moved his hands and feet on Shiro Baiying.
Under certain circumstances, Hakuei Shiro will suddenly burst into extraordinary strength.
It can be said that the opening game of the Supernatural League has been successful.
However, the North American Storm is their team, so they are naturally responsible for the results of the Storm.
The team cannot always win, otherwise the fun of the game will be lost.
However, it is also necessary to ensure a certain winning rate. Only in this way can we attract as many audiences as possible.
The live game was full of people coming and going, and the audience was filled with excitement.
"The data from Japan and China has also come back. The ratings of Japan's Dongdu TV Station are 9% and the market share is 45%." Steven said: "China is 4.45% and the market share is 26%."
Ratings count the number of all TV sets, while market share counts the number of TVs turned on.
In other words, for every 100 people watching TV in Japan, 45% are watching the game.
On the Chinese side, 26% of the TV audience was watching the game.
"What about the viewership numbers in Europe?"
"Still counting."
Judging from the news coming back from several major markets.
The event has already been a considerable success.
This is a global league.
The first game finally ended after two and a half disappearing hours.
In the end, it ended with a tragic victory for the North American Storm team. In the end, only one member of the North American Storm team remained, and all members of the Japanese Fuji team were defeated.
The peak number of viewers in North America exceeded 110 million.
Now everyone is eagerly awaiting the second game.
In terms of business and influence, the event has achieved great success.
The broadcast rights alone have been auctioned for sky-high prices in various countries.
As the nominal majority shareholder of the Storm, Steven of course paid huge bonuses to all members.
After all, the money he makes today may be more than he has made in the past few decades.
Various authorizations and various signings have made him a lot of money.
Chen Zhao went home and had a good rest for a few days.
Recently, Chen Zhao has been busy training with the Storm team.
After all, as the head coach, Chen Zhao must do many things personally.
The event is also fermenting. With the spread of various media and self-media, more people are beginning to pay attention to the event.
The licensed dolls of the main members of the Storm alone have sold for $200 million.
As for the players who played in the first game, each one of them suddenly transformed from a poor household into a multi-millionaire because of various advertising endorsements and image licensing.
Especially Shiro Shiro, who used to be an ascetic monk.
But now, he has gained great fame in Japan and North America.
The Japanese media did not speak ill of him because he led the North American Storm to a victory over the Japanese Fuji team.
On the contrary, I felt that he was bringing glory to the country. Regardless of the victory or defeat in the first game, for Japan, it was a victory in the civil war.
He also became a billionaire overnight.
Coupled with his outstanding performance in the opening game, he has become a household name in both places.
