Reborn multinational giant

100 million people, this number shocked many people in the VIP room!

You know, the total number of people in countries like France and the United Kingdom is only tens of millions. That is to say, the number of people watching the game alone now exceeds the number of any country in Europe!

If it is the World Cup, the NBA Finals and other traditional sports events to achieve such a result, they do not think it is strange, but to achieve this result is an e-sports competition, and it is only a Dota2 game competition!

"Mr. Newell, I remember that some time ago, you just announced that the total number of registered users of Dota2 in the world exceeded 40 million. Even if all players watched the game, there would not be 100 million people!" Ubisoft CEO Ives said The data on the panel was deeply suspicious, and he directly asked Newell, the more familiar Valve leader.

Newell turned his head and glanced at Fang Zhe, and explained: "Mr. Eves, don't forget, Dota 2 is just a remake of Dota games. You know better than me how many fans of Dota games around the world.

And this time, we have united many game channels and live broadcast platforms around the world, and even China's CCTV-5, American ESPN and other global heavyweight sports channels to broadcast the game. Its viewership can reach this result, too. Understandable."

Fang Zhe also smiled and added: “In order to increase the ratings, we have set up lottery events in multiple live channels. At this moment, every 5 minutes, there is a new iPhone mobile phone that is received by an audience worldwide. In the draw, bet on the audience of the championship team and have a chance to get a Mercedes-Benz car worth 300,000 US dollars!"

Including Yves and gameloftCEO Michelle, there was a twitch in their faces. This kind of activity is low cost, only a few hundred thousand dollars for 20 iPhones per hour, but it is very helpful to the increase in ratings. !

As for gambling (gambling) and the like, it is not uncommon in various top competitions. For example, during the World Cup every four years, gambling funds in various gambling (gambling) activities around the world amount to hundreds of millions of dollars!

As Fang Zhe and others discussed, the second game was nearing its end. Because the second game was too long, the pressure on the IG team was increasing, until there were many mistakes in the later period, and the NaVi team bit the opportunity. , Won the second game.

Both sides are one win and one loss, draw, who can win the third game, who is the champion of this game!

Now, whether it is a member of the IG team or a member of the NaVi team, the pressure is very high. In the home game of China, IG can only win but not lose. This is a matter of the honor and face of IG and the entire country, and the NaVi team, As the champions of the previous competition, they also hope to defend their title again, win high prize money and supreme glory!

At this time, even Fang Zhe, who was sitting in the VIP room, silently cheered for IG. Whether IG can win is not only a matter of IG, but also the country. It is the matter of Huizhong, the organizer of this competition. If IG loses The game, I am afraid that it will seriously hit the enthusiasm of domestic Dota2 players, and there will be countless passers-by fans who will abuse IG and Huizhong. The reality is like this. If you win, they will cheer for you. Be proud of you. If you lose, they will Scold you for not being able to live up to it!

"In the next game, we will try our best to force them to fight team battles and make quick decisions. Don't let them take the rhythm. There are lunatics, you drag the opposite Eva..."

"We will continue to control this rhythm in the next game. The Chinese team on the opposite side is not patient. This is China. They must have more pressure than us, so..."

During another intermission, the two teams re-discussed tactics. Now that the game is up, the pressure on both teams is very heavy. Who can play a normal level stably and master the rhythm, who can win!

Five minutes before the start of the third game, a cheering voice of "IG Come on" and "China Come on" began to sound in the audience. As more and more people shouted, the whole stadium formed "IG Come on, China" With the sound of "Come on", the IG players in the rest area were also infected, and their eyes were moist and full of excitement!

"Go on IG!" Fang Zhe muttered silently in his heart. Although the game must be fair, he must support the Chinese team.

After the start of the third game, whether it was the audience or the guests in the VIP room, they watched the game quietly without talking and discussing.

Both teams have played an unprecedented super level. At the beginning of the game, there was a fierce situation where you came and went, and the rhythm of the whole game was not completely controlled by either team.

For a while, IG made a strong raid and pierced all the way through high ground. For a while, NaVi stood firm and stabilized the situation and pushed back.

"This we must take Roshan (the game boss), otherwise, with the current situation, they must be dragged to death!" The IG captain issued an order.

After successively using various strategies such as adjusting the tiger away from the mountain and bitter meat, IG finally seized the opportunity to take down Roshan, and pushed all the way to NaVi's lair, destroying the other's ruins and winning the final victory!

In the entire Bird's Nest, warm applause and cheers broke out. In the VIP room, Fang Zhe stood up and took the lead in applauding to celebrate the victory of IG!

"IG is awesome!" This sentence became a slogan resounding throughout the Bird's Nest. All IG fans and Chinese on the scene felt the unprecedented excitement!

More than ten minutes later, when Fang Zhe and Director Li of the Sports Bureau appeared on the podium in the center of the Bird's Nest, there was a warm applause and cheers again. No one would have thought that Fang Zhe, the richest man in China, would actually He will come to the game in person, not to mention that he will personally present awards to the IG team that won the championship!

"Fang Zhe, I love you!" A certain female fan shouted at the scene, which caused a lot of laughter from the audience.

Fang Zhe shook hands with 5 members of the IG team one by one on the podium, and said a few words of praise, such as "nice", "very good", and "very powerful", and then he took a golden glorious one from the hostess The trophy was awarded to 5 people!

Colorful ribbons spurted out around the podium, brilliant fireworks lit up the sky above the entire bird's nest, and the cheers of the audience were louder than ever!

All this is to cheer for the champion IG, it is their glory moment!
