The companions in the same row turned to look at him, and said:

"No matter how much money I earn, I earn it by my own ability. Why is it for you? But if you say so, I do feel that Fang Zhe's worth is very high, 180 billion US dollars, more than Bill Gates and Buffett are the world’s top richest people, and it feels a bit unreal!"

"Untrue? Then have you ever thought that the first time we came to the Bird's Nest, it was actually to watch a Tetris game?" The young man with glasses helped his glasses and said a possibility that others had heard. I feel even more outrageous.

His companion spread his hands and smiled awkwardly.Yes, who would have thought that the two of them came to Yanjing from Sichuan and Sichuan for the first time, and they came to the Bird’s Nest for the first time to watch a Tetris game and to show them fellow players. Come on, Wang Zixuan!

The elderly grandparents all dropped their jaws in shock!

This is the inner voice of many old ladies who still know what Tetris is. As for those old ladies who don’t even know what Tetris is, it’s even more daunting to read this news.

They only know that this is a big international competition, with a lot of prize money, more than 60 million yuan, so how many buns do you have to buy? The country sends a 12-year-old baby to participate in the competition, isn't it a bit too much.

"No, I have to watch the game live." The elementary student gritted his teeth secretly and hurriedly lowered his head to rush to his homework. The father of the child, who was watching the news, shook his head and said: "Look at the kid, who participated in the international competition at the age of 12. If you win the competition, you will not only have tens of millions in prize money, but you will also be shining."

As he said, he looked down at his son who was struggling to write and rush homework, and wondered if he was too harsh on his son. In fact, playing games occasionally is a combination of work and rest.

At the Bird's Nest site, more than 90,000 audience seats were packed, and there was a lot of people!

As night fell, colorful light boards with the words "Prince Xuan, Xuan Xuan, come on", glow sticks, flashing mobile phone flashes and bright searchlights brightened the entire Bird's Nest.

In the center, a cube with huge screens on all four sides and a little looking down angle stands in the air. On all four screens, various wonderful moments since the start of the Tetris event and the two players in the final tonight are simultaneously playing. Wonderful performance coming.

Below the screen, the stage where countless lights converge is where the two contestants are about to face off.

Feng Xue nodded and looked at him with a smile and joked: "Yes, you, a capitalist, can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars per second. You can pay more than tens of millions for watching a game!"
