Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

The opening ceremony of the GPL Spring Games is relatively concise. First, the extremely enthusiastic spring game promotional video was broadcast on the big screen, and then the captains of the teams appeared, and the host introduced the origins of these clubs to the audience. And star players.

The captains of the sixteen teams corresponded to the sixteen battle flags in the stadium, and also corresponded to the sixteen warriors dressed as heroes in the promo CG.

The audience at the scene were also old audiences, very inviting, and there was a burst of applause and cheers.

Then, the game officially started.

Strictly speaking, the GPL Spring Tournament is still much worse than the ioi World Finals. After all, they are not the same level of competition in terms of positioning. The ioi World Tournament is held in a large venue that can accommodate 20,000 people. The scene is definitely Much more atmospheric than the GPL Spring Games.

But the advantage of the GPL spring game is that the details are better.

From the initial GOG Global Invitational to the subsequent preseason, the entire operating team of GPL has accumulated rich experience.

On the one hand, the rules are clear, various emergency plans are very detailed, and the probability of problems is very low. Even if problems occur, they can be resolved quickly, so as not to cause too serious broadcast accidents;

On the other hand, the audience's preferences are almost touched, some links should be done as best as possible, and all unnecessary links are cut off.

Just like the opening ceremonies of many e-sports competitions like to engage in some cosplay or song and dance performances, but most of the audience is relatively indifferent to this, so the GPL completely cut off the similar redundant links to bring the purest to the audience. Watching experience.

So in the audience's perception, although the GPL has a relatively small venue, it is very formal in all aspects. From the details, you can see the level of care in the preparation of the event, so it does not appear to be a price drop.

Soon, the game officially began.

Although SHG is a new army, it performed very well, dared to fight hard, and played three games with the H4 club and finally lost with regret.

But even so, SHG's performance on the field still won the applause of the audience, and some bright decisions and operations sparked heated discussions on the forum.

Pei Qian was also satisfied with watching the scene. He took out his mobile phone and opened the live broadcast room to see the reactions of netizens.

However, some discordant sounds appeared on the barrage.

"This is the H4 world champion? Have you played back and forth with a newly formed team?"

"This shows the gold content of the GOG Global Invitational, you know everything."

"With the strength of H4, you can still beat foreign teams. What is the quality of the foreign teams that are paid for? I don't need to say more?"

"It has been said that the level of competition in GOG is not good. The so-called'dominance' of domestic teams is only because no one is playing abroad!"

"What's so great about spending money to invite Uncle Yang to accompany you?"

"Self-entertainment and self-entertainment..."

There is a group of people with unknown origins frantically playing "self-entertainment" in the live broadcast room, demeaning the gold content of the GPL and even the GOG Global Invitational.

This is the same routine as the previous post of "Domestic e-sports start late, weak foundation, and continue to work hard", constantly using a wrong logic to brainwash the people who eat melon: GOG abused foreign teams because they did not People play, so the gold content is not high; ioi loses to foreign teams because the level of the Chinese is not good, so the gold content is high.

Finally, it is concluded that ioi is much larger than GOG.

This remark has been quarreled for a round before, and now the GPL has started and it has been brought up again.Obviously it is these people with ulterior motives in order to combat the enthusiasm of the GPL spring competition and promote the ioi global finals.

Many GOG players are very angry and chat with these players in the live broadcast rooms and forums, but to no avail.

These people who pick things up are all professional sprayers. If you show him the facts and reason, he should not be able to see it. He will only continue to mess around with his own wrong reasoning, and he will also attack you with yin and yang and personal attacks; once you get on your head, confront him Spray, but fell into his trap.

The two groups of people sprayed each other, and instead made the GPL live broadcast room a mess. The game was originally very exciting, but no one discussed the content of the game, which greatly affected the feeling of watching the game.

Pei Qian was not angry at all, but rather happy.

Longyu Group and Mr. Zhao finally worked, which is really touching!

You will be able to see the FV club game at 5 o'clock tomorrow morning. As long as the FV club loses, the Internet will definitely be very lively!

Although Pei Qian doesn't think this public opinion turmoil will affect the GPL league to make money, it is better than nothing!

Pei Qian decided to rest early this evening and get up at 5 tomorrow morning to watch the FV club game.

...

...

At 1 p.m. Los Angeles time on the 7th, and 5 a.m. Beijing time on the 8th, the ioi global finals quarterfinals officially started!

The quarter-finals consisted of four BO5 games. After the two days of Los Angeles time on Saturday and Sunday, the FV team played first, against the European club CEM team that had killed the domestic team in the group stage before.

CEM is also a strong European and American veteran team similar to FRY. It has shown strong dominance in the group stage. It qualified 4-0 in the group stage, and even more tortured the domestic team in the same group. Get started.

The FV club staff are all waiting in the background, Wu Yue and Manager Lu's expressions are still a little nervous.

Although they completely trust the strength of the players, the winning or losing of things like e-sports is not so absolute. The opponent is not a weak team, and the FV club is not 100% sure of winning.

Moreover, this is an offline game. The European and American teams are playing at home. It is hard to say whether the players will be out of balance and play abnormally because of the cheers of the other side.

"On the stage!"

I don't know who yelled, and everyone looked at the screen in the background.

At the same time, thunderous applause and cheers came from the stadium!

CEM first appeared on the stage. The five team members all had confident smiles on their faces, waving at the audience frequently, enjoying the applause and cheers of the crowd.

Then came the FV club. The audience on the scene also showed face. Although the cheers were lower than the CEM team, they were also very enthusiastic.

After all, the FV club has been constantly working on Twitter and interacting frequently with major clubs, so it has also gained a good reputation among foreign players.

It's just that the speeches of netizens on foreign live broadcast platforms are not so kind, the overwhelming "3:0" and "cnioinoob".

Obviously, most foreign audiences just think that FV clubs are very good at getting things done, but they don't recognize their competitive strength.

In the minds of most spectators, this will be a game without suspense. FV clubs estimate that it will be difficult to get a small point.

The members of the FV club could not see the barrage, and of course they would not be affected. They just enjoyed the cheers and applause of the scene to their heart's content, waiting to conquer the 20,000 audience with their performance in the game.

The quarter-finals and semi-finals are not so much bells and whistles, and the game quickly entered the BP link.

...

At the same time, Pei Qian just got up.

Turn on the TV, take out potato chips and coke and sit on the sofa, just to see the BP link between the two teams.

The barrage is still very chaotic, and the players are fighting together.

There are yin and yang weird GOGs for self-entertainment, some who keep "swim back", some who cheer for the FV team, and some who keep brushing meaningless numbers to block the screen, there is no experience of watching the game.

Obviously, in the GOG opening game yesterday, the navy invited by Longyu Group angered GOG players, and today there were also GOG players who came to fight back in the ioi game.

The result is that the barrage of the games on both sides cannot be seen.

Pei Qian was also a little speechless, but when he was about to close the barrage, he saw a series of question marks floating on the screen.

"?????"

"FV is such an iron? Let chaos doom?"

"A total of four games in the group stage were broken and all of them were broken. Are they still playing?"

"Isn't the FV club because there is no training match, so I don't know how abnormal this hero is? It's not right, even if you don't play the training match, at least you should take a look at the group stage?"

"I understand, it may be that FV felt that they were all 3:0 anyway, and they could find an excuse to play chaotic bad luck. It seemed that they did not lose because of the dish, but because of the BP problem. This wave, this wave of FV is in Fifth floor!"

"You can turn off the live broadcast, go have breakfast, and come back to watch the second game in 30 minutes!"

"You really have FV!"

"I have already seen the next script. Chaos doom develops in 20 minutes, and directly ends the game with three waves of team battles."

"Who is the coach of the FV club? This stuff can be released, I am afraid that the brain is flooded? Or is the food and accommodation conditions in Los Angeles so good, the brain is rusty?"

"The coach seems to be... Lao Zhou? Fuck, isn't this an auxiliary player of the original DGE club?"

"Huh? The GOG player came over to become the head coach? Nima is outrageous, no wonder the chaos and bad luck! Isn't this playing GOG, brother!"

In the past, several groups of people in the barrage were arguing and attacked each other with repeated vocabulary, just like a melee. But after the BAN people ended and CEM directly grabbed the hero of "Chaos Doom", the content of the barrage was immediately Was unified.

All of them are singing bad FV clubs!

Many people just noticed that the coach of BP was Zhou Pengyuan.

As a former GOG star player, Zhou Pengyuan has never appeared in the public eye after coming to Los Angeles.

This is his first time on stage for BP, and as a result, he put up the chaotic doom of this version, which is recognized as the purple Fang Biban, which is a blockbuster.

Pei Qian was a little curious, and searched for the hero "Chaotic Doom" on Qiandu.

This is a new hero from ioi. It looks like a dark cloud. It is a long-range hero but the range is only slightly higher than melee combat. The strong point is that it has a good team control ability in the middle and late stages, and it is meaty and has output. Once entering the team battle stage, it is almost a sure victory.

A total of four games were released in the group stage, and the released teams were all hammered to pieces without exception.

Everyone felt that this hero should have bought a house in the BAN position and would never appear in the knockout rounds. As a result, they did not expect the FV club to come up and be released.

Pei Qian couldn't help but feel refreshed. The FV club can do it.

This kind of style reminds Pei Qian of the legendary three-play iron man and five-play Galio, highlighting a head iron and not wanting to win.

Pei Qian was chewing potato chips while watching the next game.
