Rebirth Of The Entrepreneurship Era

Chapter 335: Let the e-sports industry find a business model

Views:

The second CS team competition concluded successfully.

When the five thousand spectators walked out of the stadium with unsatisfied expectations, Zheng Pengyu, the person in charge of ANTA China Overseas, approached Xu Yiyang.

He said to Xu Yiyang: "I reported it to the head office. They are quite interested in the team naming matter, but whether it can be signed depends on the subsequent influence of our competition. It may take a few days. Only then can I give you a clear answer, so I hope you understand.”

Xu Yiyang smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Zheng, I absolutely understand this, and our club must be slowly established and improved. When your company has an intention, we can discuss the follow-up cooperation methods at any time."

"Okay." Zheng Pengyu said with a smile: "That's it for now. I will contact you when there is news."

"no problem."

After Zheng Pengyu left, Xu Yiyang handed over the rest of the on-site work to the execution company, and took his bedmate, Shen Lele, Song Xiaoman and Wang Ying, as well as the newly signed e-sports players, to the hotel that had been booked long ago. , held a celebration banquet.

At the celebration banquet, everyone was very concerned about when the third CS team competition would be held.

Xu Yiyang is tentatively scheduled to hold it in the second half of the year, and the specific time is to be determined.

For the third CS team competition, he wanted to expand the scope. It would be best to organize a national college student team competition to take the scale to a higher level.

However, the specific plan needs to be considered in the long term.

Competing was too nerve-wracking, and Xu Yiyang was not ready to start thinking about this issue right away.

But in order to prepare for future national competitions, Xu Yiyang formulated a training plan for the team players.

Since we are all college students, we must ensure 80 hours of training time per month during non-winter and summer vacations. For college students who have no classes in the evenings and take weekends off, 80 hours a month is relatively easy to achieve.

As for the winter and summer vacations, it cannot be like a university where everyone goes back to their hometown immediately after the holidays.

After all, e-sports is a skill that requires long-term training. It not only needs to train personal reaction ability, hand speed and consciousness, but also train team cooperation.

Therefore, Xu Yiyang requested that half of the vacation time be used for training during the winter and summer vacations.

During the winter and summer training periods, the club will provide everyone with food and accommodation.

No one has any objections to this training arrangement.

The team's training venue is currently located in the private room on the second floor of the first store of New Century Internet Cafe.

The ten machines in the private room will be completely vacant during after-school hours from Monday to Friday, weekends, and holidays, leaving them for team training.

At the same time, Guo Peng is still the captain of the team.

As for the position of team manager, Xu Yiyang will temporarily hold the position himself. If a suitable candidate is found in the future, a full-time manager can be assigned to the team.

In the early stages of the formation of the team, if there are no competition arrangements, all the content is training.

Captain Guo Peng will formulate the training plan and conduct training supervision. Those who are not active in training or absent from training without reason must have certain disciplinary measures. The most serious one is to terminate the contract.

As long as everyone in the team trains on time and seriously, they can get a basic salary of 1,200 yuan per month.

In the team, except Tong Yuewei, who has no feelings about the basic salary of 1,200 yuan, everyone else is looking forward to it and looking forward to it.

Everyone is a college student, and most of them are from outside the city. The basic salary of 1,200 yuan a month is enough for their living expenses for at least three months.

The remaining money is enough for their tuition and fees for a year.

On the night after the celebration banquet, this unprecedented CS match was reported by many media.

In media reports, everyone has an open and encouraging attitude towards this kind of game competition, believing that this kind of competition is very suitable for contemporary college students to keep up with the development and trends of the times.

At the same time, this game can also allow participating college students to cultivate a sense of teamwork in an interesting and competitive game, which has a great positive effect.

Interestingly, the public mailbox of New Century Internet Cafe quickly received many emails from e-sports enthusiasts, including several e-sports clubs and e-sports teams.

In their emails, almost all of these people expressed their gratitude to Xu Yiyang and the New Century CS team. Because of his efforts, e-sports has now gained a certain degree of popularity across the country. Compared with the obscurity and lack of attention before, Too much stronger.

In addition, they also expressed their yearning for the new century e-sports club in the email.

Many of these e-sports enthusiasts feel that their technical skills are very good, but they are struggling to find a reliable team or club. They even proposed that as long as they can take care of food and housing, they will be given two to three hundred yuan a month. For living expenses, they are willing to come and seek refuge.

There are also some e-sports clubs and teams that, because they have never had sponsor support, are unable to make ends meet and are almost on the verge of bankruptcy. They very much hope to be merged by the New Century E-sports Club.

These emails also allowed Xu Yiyang to see the current difficult situation of domestic e-sports practitioners.

Without competition and exposure, it would be difficult for them to create commercial value, and in the end they would have to lose money to maintain their dreams.

Speaking of the early generation of great gods in the Chinese e-sports circle, such as War3's Human Emperor SKY, Star God God Ma Tianyuan, and King of Fighters God Kid, they are all very respectable pioneers in the Chinese e-sports circle.

Not only in the e-sports industry, pioneers in every field are worthy of respect.

For example, Zhang Tiequan, the pioneer of the UFC Ultimate Fighting Championship, fought alone in the UFC for his ideals. Between matches, there were coaches to guide tactics and a team to relax his muscles and adjust his condition. He could only squat on the sidelines with a bruised face and a bruised face. With full hardness.

Xu Yiyang also hopes to help these earliest e-sports pioneers, but he also knows very well that it is too difficult for an e-sports club by itself to absorb so many players and teams who come here.

What I can really do is create more competition opportunities, mobilize the enthusiasm of advertisers for naming, and let the entire e-sports industry find its own business model.

Only in this way can the living environment of domestic e-sports be fundamentally improved.

However, he also wants to expand the scale of the New Century E-Sports Club in the next stage.

Now that we have the first CS team, we can also consider forming a Star Wars team. When Warcraft 3 comes out, we can also form a Warcraft team.

January 2nd.

The second day of the new millennium is also the first Sunday of the new millennium.

Xu Yiyang and others were very tired from the busy performance on the 31st and the competition on the 1st. Now they finally had a chance to relax, so everyone almost stayed in the dormitory and slept in.

Chen Meng, on the other hand, sneaked out early in the morning and sneaked back in like a thief around noon with a cardboard box in his arms.

Xu Yiyang was half lying on the bed reading a book. Seeing his sneaky look, he asked, "What are you hugging? Sneaky."

"Hey." Chen Meng smiled mysteriously and said, "Brother Xu, I bought a good thing! Do you want to open your eyes?"

Xu Yiyang asked in surprise: "What?"

"What good thing is it?" Others were also attracted and looked over.

Chen Meng revealed the hidden cardboard box from his arms and said, "Look! Mini TV! Five-inch mini screen, and it's still in color!"

Xu Yiyang was disappointed: "That's it?"

Chen Meng asked in surprise: "Isn't this awesome enough?"

"What a bullshit..." Xu Yiyang lay back on the bed.

For him, a modern man who was reborn more than twenty years later, he simply didn't have the mood to take a second look at this kind of thing.

In terms of entertainment, if the iPad scored 10,000 points, the five-inch mini color TV that Chen Meng regarded as his treasure would probably only score 1 point.

However, Xu Yiyang ignored the extreme lack of entertainment options in college dormitories nowadays. For people other than him, having a TV to watch in the dormitory was simply a dreamlike scene.

At this time, the other four people had already rushed over quickly like tigers rushing towards prey.

Two of them even jumped down from the upper bunk, and each of them exclaimed: "Damn, this is awesome!"

"It's amazing! It's so small and it's in color!"

"Hey, this thing is awesome. If you connect it to a longer power strip, you can hold it while you poop!"

Chen Meng chuckled: "How about it, awesome? I originally wanted to buy a small VCD, but the boss said that it is out of stock now and has to wait until next week. I will buy one back then and get some movie CDs, and everyone will I can watch movies in the dormitory now!”

Zhang Junnan asked hurriedly: "Brother Meng, can you buy that kind of disk? You know..."

Chen Meng said: "I asked around, it's ten yuan a piece, and I'll buy a few back when the time comes."

The others nodded with obscene looks on their faces, their faces full of anticipation.

At this time, Zhao Xin watched him plug in and fiddle with the power, and couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Meng, how many channels can this receive?"

Chen Meng said: "The antenna on the fuselage can probably receive the central station and the local station. If an antenna can be installed outside, it can probably receive more than 20 stations."

Zhao Xin asked again: "Where is the antenna? Have you bought it?"

"Buy a stupid antenna." Chen Meng said, "Why don't you let the dormitory manager see it?"

"Oh, you are a hammer!" Zhao Xin blurted out: "Even if you buy a set of antennas to use in the house, they are much better than the two thin sticks that come with your fuselage!"

Chen Meng scratched his head: "That makes sense. I'll buy one next time."

Immediately, while turning on the phone, he said: "I bought it mainly because I wanted to watch CCTV's "China-Korea Song Contest". I tried it at the TV store and I can get it."

After saying that, he hurriedly said: "Oh, the Chinese and Korean singing concert has already started!"

"It's awesome!" Everyone swarmed to the front and said, "Hurry up and find out!"

Chen Meng waved his hand and said, "Go and lock the door."

"Okay." Li Yiming hurriedly opened the door, ran back quickly, and then gathered in front of the TV with the others.

Xu Yiyang sneered at the performance of these five people.

It's so exciting, a mini TV can be so exciting.

Soon, a buzzing sound came from the TV. Chen Meng was busy adjusting the antenna in various ways. After adjusting it for a long time, the picture finally came out.

"Fuck, yes, yes!"

There was already a picture on the TV at this time, but because the signal quality was not very good, the sound was still a bit sizzling.

So Zhao Xin hurriedly said: "Damn it, if you move the antenna again, it won't work. You can't see it at all."

Chen Meng carefully adjusted the angle of the antenna bit by bit.

Zhao Xin looked anxious and blurted out: "Oh, if you have a wider range of movement, you'll be moaning."

Chen Meng adjusted it carefully and muttered: "Damn it, don't dare to adjust this too much. If you adjust it too much, you may even lose the painting."

Half a minute later, the sizzling sound finally turned into singing, and the picture became much clearer.

The voices of several Korean female singers came out instantly.

Zhang Junnan saw the leading woman clearly and shouted excitedly: "Fuck! Lee Hyori!"

Chen Meng immediately covered his mouth and said, "No! You are not allowed to cheat!"
