Chapter 285: Popular Nationwide
On October 2nd, "League of Legends" was officially launched.
As soon as the game was launched, a large number of players flocked in, and the number of online users increased rapidly, soon exceeding 100,000.
Such achievements are of course inseparable from the publicity strategy of "Iron Fist Technology".
But it was mainly due to the extensive publicity generated by the new film launch of "The King's Avatar" and Jing Tian's huge popularity.
On the set of "The King's Avatar", Da Tiantian placed a notebook on her lap and swiped her fingers on the mouse touchpad.
“Which one is Reina? Which one is Reina?!”
Yang Mi, who was standing by, pointed at the computer and said, "This should be it!"
"Ah, this doesn't look good either!" Da Tiantian said disappointedly.
Yang Mi smiled, "It's a game, so it's definitely not possible to draw it so delicately!"
"Let me see your performance as Rui Mengmeng!"
After saying that, Jing Tian started looking again and found that apart from the silver hair and short skirt, there seemed to be nothing special.
I went to look at the prototype of Qilin played by Clara, the Piltover policewoman Catherine.
"She's so sexy and pretty cool!"
Finally, I went to see Catalina, the prototype of Rose, played by Liu Yifei, and said lightly, "She's pretty cool."
Hu Chuan on the side said: "Look at my performance as Ge Xiaolun!"
Yang Mi laughed and said, "This place is called Galen, it looks so silly!"
Hu Chuan also lamented, "It doesn't show how handsome I am at all!"
Jing Tian suddenly said, "Wow, the prince looks a lot like Brother Jielun!"
"Oh, really, they look so similar!"
"Exactly the same!"
Zhou Jielun had not originally joined in the fun, but after hearing what Jing Tian and the others said, he stood up and walked over, saying in a very unique tone: "Oh, it really seems like it, it seems I have to practice this hero first!"
Yang Mi said, "Well, how about we go to the Internet cafe to play games together after work tonight?"
Jing Tian hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, let's go together, let's go together!"
Hu Chuan said he had no objection, and Zhou Jielun also agreed.
Jing Tian handed the computer to Yang Mi, got up and went to find Jiang Heng, and proposed to go to the Internet cafe to play games together.
Jiang Heng was just trying to make some "news", so he naturally agreed with a smile.
Huang Xiaoming, who was standing next to him, naturally wanted to go too.
With the addition of Liu Yifei, Clara, and Zhang Yuqi, the number of people increased rapidly.
Ding Haifeng felt that he was too old and did not participate.
The brothers Yuen Tak and Yuen Wah prefer drinking and don't join in the fun.
So, after the crew finished work in the evening, Jiang Heng first took everyone out for a midnight snack, and then went to the largest Internet cafe nearby.
Because there were so many people, both men and women, it eventually alarmed the people around and a few came up to ask for autographs.
Fortunately, the camera quality of mobile phones was average at that time, and it was already very late, so there was no gathering effect.
It only took a dozen minutes for everyone to get online.
After sitting down, everyone opened the game to choose heroes. Jing Tian suddenly asked, "Brother, what hero are you using?"
"Ice shooter, Ashe!"
In his previous life, Jiang Heng was pretty good at playing League of Legends, and was quite proficient in popular heroes such as Ashe, Master Yi, Lee Sin, Teemo, etc.
He plans to change a hero in each game to let the novice players see how to play each hero.
Then, the team he led won all the way.
Each hero played very well, which was an eye-opener for everyone.
Jing Tian's exclamations could be heard from time to time in the Internet cafe, "Wow, brother, how come you use Lee Sin so well!"
"Wow, your use of Teemo must have pissed off the opponent!"
Firstly, her voice was indeed pleasant to the ear, and secondly, some people were curious. Soon, a few people gathered behind Jiang Heng to watch the fun.
Seeing that more and more people were coming and it was getting late, Jiang Heng suggested going back.
Although everyone was still a little unsatisfied, they could see that Jiang Heng's tone was one of notification rather than negotiation, so they naturally agreed.
Before leaving, Jiang Heng had a sudden idea and almost said, "Mr. Jiang will pay for tonight's consumption!"
I was just afraid of the bad influence, so I finally held back.
But after the group left, the Internet cafe suddenly "exploded" with constant discussions.
"Oh my god, I can see so many celebrities just by surfing the Internet!"
"I can't believe it. Director Jiang, Zhou Jielun, Da Tiantian, Liu Tianxian, Da Mimi, Brother Xiao Ming, and Hu Chuan are actually surfing the Internet!"
"Director Jiang is so good at this!"
"Well, that Teemo's play is too disgusting. He planted so many mushrooms. The opponent must have collapsed!"
"He would never have thought that the mushrooms were planted by Director Jiang. He would probably be cursing right now, haha!"
"Go to Tieba and look for it, maybe there will be a post there!"
After a discussion among a few young people, they rushed to browse the "League of Legends" forum and found a post complaining about Teemo.
"Where was that photo you took just now?"
"It's on the phone, the pixels are too poor, the effect is average!"
"It's okay, as long as you can see it clearly, send it to me, send it to me!"
After receiving the photo, this person replied to the post complaining about Teemo, "Brother, you should feel honored. The Teemo you were playing against just now was played by Director Jiang Heng!"
As soon as the reply was sent, it instantly attracted replies.
"Nonsense, how could Director Jiang have time to play this?"
“No picture, no truth!”
The next second, the picture was uploaded.
"It's true. It's in XX Internet Cafe, one row away from me. Director Jiang Heng, Jing Tian, Zhou Jielun, a lot of people are here!"
"Fuck, it really is Director Jiang!"
At this point, the netizen who posted the complaint replied, "No way, the Teemo on the opposite side was really played by Director Jiang? I can only say one thing, it's awesome!"
……
However, by the next day, the number of hits on this post had exceeded one million, and the number of replies exceeded 100,000, sparking heated discussions across the Internet.
The number of registered users and the number of concurrent online users of "League of Legends" also skyrocketed.
As a result, a social critic jumped out and said that as an internationally renowned director, it was inappropriate for Jiang Heng to promote an online game so hard.
Jiang Heng wrote in a blog that the movie "The King's Avatar" was adapted from "League of Legends". He led a group of main creators to an Internet cafe to experience the game in order to allow the actors to better understand the roles. It can also be regarded as a way of experiencing life. Is there anything wrong with that?
Some actors who play prisoners will go to prison and carefully observe the prisoners' movements and expressions. According to this logic, does this count as promoting the prison?
Naturally, most people on the Internet supported Jiang Heng, but there were still some people who supported that critic, making "League of Legends" more and more well-known and becoming one of the most popular games in the country.
Coupled with the explosively popular "Zhu Xian", "Iron Fist Technology" has already firmly established itself as one of the top domestic game manufacturers.
This left the bosses and executives of game companies such as Jiucheng and Wangyi dumbfounded.
On the set of "The King's Avatar", Jing Tian was still holding his notebook and looking around.
It was naturally impossible for her to play games on the set, so she would browse forums and read guides whenever she had free time.
"Hey, there's actually someone claiming to be a master and wants to confront Director Jiang!"
"Why are all their nicknames Director Jiang? Who is that brother?" Jing Tian muttered as he watched.
Jiang Heng walked up to him and said, "How about I build an e-sports room for you next to me?"
Jing Tian's eyes lit up, "Okay, okay!"
"What the hell!"
Jiang Heng said, and tapped her head gently with his hand, "Put away the computer!"
"Oh!" Jing Tian looked like he was caught by the teacher for being absent-minded in class, and closed his notebook reluctantly.
