Chapter 318 Dihua, Dihua, and Dihua
Han Yong looked at the notice that had been sent to him and couldn't help feeling embarrassed.
Han Yong lived a good life during this period.
As the first stop of the StarCraft Global Tour Open, the Shanghai Open was quite successful and set a good example for the whole world.
The battles between several top masters such as Xiao Shiqin, Ga Jie, and Lu Bu, with the full-throated commentary of Shuang Xie and others, have generated considerable popularity both online and offline.
In addition, Xiao Shiqin fought Lu Bu for six rounds in the final and finally won the sub-site championship with a score of 4:2, which created a certain degree of out-of-circle effect.
Although the value of a sub-station championship is actually not as high as the final overall championship, this is only limited to insiders who know the business.
For outsiders, if there are foreign players participating in the competition, and they are top-level players, they are world champions!
So Xiao Shiqin was inexplicably crowned the world champion, which made him feel a little embarrassed. He explained in almost all interviews and live broadcasts that he had only won a sub-station.
But how much of an effect it will have, I don’t know.
Thanks to Xiao Shiqin's good performance, Storm Studios, which has always attached great importance to the domestic market, finally made up its mind to hold the first StarCraft global finals in China.
The event was still hosted by the Chinese branch under Han Yong.
It can be said that a bright future is just around the corner.
But at this moment, Cotick suddenly made a comeback.
After all, he is still the president of the World Electronic Sports Association in name.
An order to "fully cooperate with the establishment and operation of the Jedi Gun God E-sports League" was sent to Han Yong, which made him subconsciously very embarrassed.
Although to be fair, he had to admit that this seemed to be a very promising project.
But compared to the tasks assigned by superiors, he prefers the stable happiness that has already been achieved.
Amid the bleak situation of the e-sports association, the Chinese branch, under his leadership, is definitely one of the best developed branches and one of the most independent branches.
But if we divert human and material resources back to work on the Cortick project, wouldn't we be back to serving the headquarters like dogs?
And Pei Yunteng must be offended to death.
"I can't do it. Whoever wants to do this job can do it. There's no room for negotiation this time, even for pretending." Han Yong made up his mind quickly.
"It just so happens that, as of now, this game seems to be quite controversial in China. There is no promotion in China, and there are many dirty comments in the foreign comment section."
"This is just the right excuse."
It didn't take much effort for Han Yong to come up with an excuse to shirk the task.
As for whether Kotick believes it or not, who cares?
At least the Chinese branch has long been managed by him to be airtight.
After deciding on the policy, Han Yong was about to make the final decision, but suddenly paused: "I almost forgot."
"How did President Pei respond to this matter?"
"I have to keep up with Mr. Pei and Lao Feng."
Otherwise, how can we say that Han Yong is on the right track?
Having tasted the sweetness of success in the interstellar competition, he now has a sense of being a Tenghai member, even though he is not within the Tenghai system at all.
He did what he said and called Feng Xianjun.
"Old Feng! Long time no see... It's nothing serious, I just want to ask you about the recent Jedi Gun God. What are your plans?"
"...Hey, you're still trying to spy on me. Don't you know where I stand? Isn't this also a way to better cooperate with your work..."
"What? No plans? Mr. Pei said to wait and see?"
"Well...let me think about it."
After hanging up the phone, Han Yong's face wrinkled into a bitter gourd.
Although Feng Xianjun said a few insults to him, he did not intend to hide anything.
It seems that Tenghai really intends to let this game grow wildly.
Han Yong couldn't do this directly.
From his perspective, Gunslinger is definitely not that kind of rubbish game where you just ignore it and it will kill itself.
The core concept of this game is copied from Tencent and it has the potential to be a phenomenal game.
"That shouldn't be the case... With Mr. Pei's intelligence, it's impossible that he couldn't see the potential of this game. Why didn't he take action?"
"It can't be that Mr. Pei himself is helpless, right? If you believe this, you might as well believe that Kodick will die suddenly tomorrow."
On the one hand, Han Yong's absolute trust in Pei Yunteng's wisdom made him believe that Pei Yunteng's arrangements were absolutely well-targeted.
But on the other hand, he really didn't understand how this inaction mode could deal with the menacing glory.
"Could it be that Mr. Pei's response plan is not mainly based on Tencent, so Old Feng doesn't know about it? But that shouldn't be the case." Han Yong was puzzled.
Naraka: Bladepoint was released not long ago, and it is impossible for Tencent to urgently release a new battle royale game just for the sake of Gunslinger at this time.
In that case, the best case scenario would be killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred of our own.
If it is a public opinion channel, it can achieve good results in China, but Tenghai is powerless in foreign public opinion channels...
"The headquarters in charge of technology development and games, Tencent Esports in charge of e-sports, Xianyu in charge of self-media platforms and live streaming... Which other department is more suitable to deal with Kotick?"
"It seems that he has lost all hope. After all, that grandson is clearly targeting the field of e-sports, and he has even put his position as the president of the association at stake..."
Han Yong muttered to himself, thinking hard.
But at this moment, a faint electric current flashed through his mind.
"No, it seems there is a department that is more suitable for this job than Lao Feng."
Han Yong subconsciously stretched out a finger, rotated it in the air and pointed it in a circle, and finally stopped pointing directly in his direction.
"...Myself?"
At this moment, it was as if a bomb exploded in Han Yong's mind.
At this moment, some dusty memories that had been forgotten for so long that he was about to forget them slowly emerged in his mind.
"President Han, do you want to become the president of the World Electronic Sports Association?"
That day, Han Yong originally just wanted to find Pei Yunteng to apologize and admit his mistake. He accepted the loss he had suffered before, and from now on, they should just keep their distance from each other.
But in the end, he chose to surrender completely without knowing why.
A big part of the reason is that Pei Yunteng painted a big rosy picture for him.
Become the big cake of the president of the General Conference.
As time went by, although Han Yong failed to become the president of the association, with the support of Tenghai, he was able to do his work smoothly and reap the benefits, so he was naturally satisfied.
So much so that I gradually forgot about this cake.
But now, the situation seems to be different...
Han Yong didn’t dare to dream of that position before, partly because Codick’s power was so deeply rooted that he had no way to shake it.
On the other hand, his own influence is quite limited, and he would not be able to convince the public even if he were to take office.
But now, these two problems have actually been solved by more than half.
Codick has lost the trust of the forces behind him. Although he still has considerable strength in the club, he is not as strong as before.
With the support of Tenghai, Han Yong obtained a lot of e-sports resources.
I can use these to buy off my connections. As long as... I can gather my strength and overthrow Kodick this time!
"I understand, I understand everything!" Han Yong's eyes lit up, and the flame of ambition burned fiercely in his heart.
"The reason why President Pei didn't do it himself is because he still remembered the agreement with me, so he chose to give this opportunity to me."
"It was only because I led the e-sports association to defeat Kodick that I had the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and reach the top of the association."
"This is President Pei's trust in me!"
As the president of the association, you will have much more room to maneuver by then than you do now.
Maybe he can even defeat Lao Feng!
Stand out from the crowd today!
Han Yong was so impatient that he couldn't sit still anymore.
He didn't care about anything else and quickly called Pei Yunteng.
"Old Han?" Pei Yunteng was thinking about it when he suddenly saw Han Yong calling him directly. He thought something had happened.
"Boss Pei! I understand what you mean! Just leave this matter to me. I will definitely not let you down!"
Han Yong was so excited that he lost his composure and could hardly speak clearly.
What do I mean? What do I mean? Pei Yunteng's face was full of question marks.
Could it be that he's talking about the StarCraft Gold League finals?
Well, it would be strange if he wasn’t excited when such a big cake finally fell into his hands.
Pei Yunteng felt that he understood.
But it was Storm Studios' own decision to hold it in China. Han Yong was able to secure this opportunity because of his ability.
But since he had called, Pei Yunteng couldn't say anything more, so he simply encouraged him: "Do a good job, I believe in you."
"Yes! I will do my best to implement it!"
After hanging up the phone, Han Yong couldn't calm down for a long time.
Pei Yunteng trusts his ability so much, he must produce corresponding results!
"Kodick, Kodick, I didn't want to take action against you so soon." Han Yong's eyes shone with danger.
"But now, I can only ask you to be my stepping stone."
He strode out of the office, and then it was time for him to perform.
First, he had to call his elders.
……
"What? Foreign products that copy domestic games want to come to the Chinese market to cheat money?"
"What? The theme is to put a hundred people on a closed island and kill them until only one person can survive?"
"What? There are a lot of unfriendly comments about China in the comments section of the game on the foreign website?"
"How dare you submit a game like this for review?"
“They must be sanctioned and banned!”
As Han Yong mobilized his connections, the review department, which had been somewhat indifferent to the outside world, soon learned that there was such a thing and it was being submitted for review in China?
When they don't exist?
Although the Battle Royale mode is highly compatible with Chinese players, Chinese players are also the main audience group of this mode.
But it is actually quite unpopular with the Chinese review department.
Putting a hundred people in a closed area and killing them until only one person is left alive, is this something that China can broadcast?
Even if Han Yong didn't mention this, it would be almost impossible for them to grant a publishing number for such a thing.
Little-known fact: in the past and until now, PUBG has not obtained a publishing license in China.
Not just PUBG, all battle royale mode games have been boycotted by the censorship department.
The reason is as mentioned above, and a document has even been issued specifically for this purpose to boycott all battle royale games.
It is for this reason that the competition in the chicken game in that world becomes particularly cruel.
A large number of excellent chicken-eating games, such as Xiaomi Gunfight and Ring of Elysium, have fallen one after another because they did not obtain publishing numbers and could not pass the review.
It even gave rise to a cliché, which some elementary school students love to sing: "Come back to the exciting battlefield."
When the game was still called PUBG Mobile, it did not obtain a publishing license for the same reason.
However, Fujiko was very determined at the time. Even though she didn't get the version number, she forced the test without deleting the files. She operated the game for a whole year without any payment points.
During this period, the packaging of the game was radically changed.
It changed from the original battle royale to a special forces exercise, and the ammunition used for shooting became special exercise bullets. The scene where the extremely golden guy took out a box and waved his hand on the spot after being eliminated was also added for this purpose.
Trying to convince players and reviewers that this is just a special forces training game.
For this purpose, they even specially built a model of the Chinese Air Force Base, placed a bunch of J-20 and Y-20 fighters in it, and even changed the name to Peace Elite. Only then did it pass the review with great difficulty.
After obtaining the version number, Fujiko naturally wanted to make back all the money lost in the past year, and Peace Elite became Peace Nikki.
Therefore, the reason why the chicken-eating game ultimately failed to continue its phenomenal performance at the beginning, in addition to its own objective factors, is also inseparable from the dimensionality reduction attack it encountered in China.
And this life is also similar.
In order to prevent the reviewers from finding any flaws, the background of Naraka: Bladepoint was also carefully designed.
The theme changed from a battle royale to heroes fighting for treasures, and elimination turned into being taken away by the Soul-Returning Flower.
In addition, Tenghai is still the main force of cultural output in the domestic gaming field in this life, and was specifically named for care, so it passed the review smoothly.
And the Jedi Gun God...
In the fundamentalist chicken game, even the blood is red, and it is competing with domestic games for territory?
Want to review? Dream on!
Thus, with a piece of approval from the review department, Jedi Gun God's just-started campaign to expand into the Chinese market came to an end.
Naturally, Kodick's request for the Chinese branch to engage in e-sports was shelved.
In this way, Han Yong no longer has to worry about the basic foundation of China.
However, it's not enough.
Now Han Yong is no longer satisfied with simply keeping Codick out.
He must take the initiative, unite all the forces that can be united, and completely overturn Codick's rule over the e-sports association.
In the past, it was really not his turn to do this, but now it is different.
As Teng Hai conquers the world, many forces in the e-sports association have unknowingly formed interests related to or even overlapping with his.
From an individual to an entire branch...
"Xiao Zhao, it's just right, you can help me with something."
"Go and talk to the presidents of these chapters, and find a time for us to hold a meeting."
“A conference that will change the future direction of the e-sports association!”
The second update brings you to the point where it’s still 8,000 today.
The main reason is that this internship is very full and there are assessments, so I have very little time left.
I will update more for everyone on the weekend.
