Chapter 472: Our Esports Era
In the M249 team training base, Lu Hao and Yang Hao were sitting in front of the computer playing games, while Lin Feng and Thor were in the conference room.
Lu Hao and Yang Hao didn't know what they were discussing, and they were very curious.
"Ah Hao, what do you say our brother Feng and Boss Tuo are talking about?" Yang Hao asked.
"What else can we talk about, it must be about the follow-up professional games." Lu Hao said lightly.
When Yang Hao heard Lu Hao's words, he didn't understand what he meant at all, he continued to ask with a confused expression.
"What's there to talk about, it's definitely going to the PCPI or the Hong Kong Invitational."
Lu Hao sat in front of the computer, stopped operating the keyboard and mouse, turned to look at Yang Hao and said, "You think playing professional games is such a simple thing." ”
"Is there any difficulty that can not be achieved?"
"Of course, there are difficulties, think about it, the team that can participate in the PCPI competition can only participate in the FPS chicken branch of those old e-sports clubs in China." Lu Hao asked rhetorically.
Yang Hao thought about it, it was true, from the PUBG competition, all the events were basically participated by those teams, and there were no other new teams to participate at all.
"Do you know why the current tournaments are called invitational tournaments?" Lu Hao asked.
"I don't know!" Yang Hao shook his head.
"Because there is no complete competition system in China now, such as League of Legends has a spring tournament and a mid-season tournament, each team is promoted in the audition mode, but at the beginning, there were not so many chicken teams in China, so the organizer can only hold the competition by invitation."
"Not only that, but there are some invited teams who don't want to participate."
"But now the situation is different, with the popularity of chicken, some grassroots teams are increasing, but there are no auditions for them to advance to higher international competitions."
Yang Hao heard Lu Hao's words, nodded, and said, "You mean, a team like ours that is not famous has no competition at all, right?" ”
Lu Hao nodded and said: "Unless we have a strong backstage, such as being linked to an old e-sports club, or having a live broadcast platform to give us resources, otherwise like our team, no one will invite us to play at all." ”
"I see, Brother Feng must be discussing with Boss Tuo about playing professional games in the future." Yang Hao asked.
"It must be, I know it with my ass, we can go to this training match and I don't know what the relationship between Brother Feng and them is."
"If the domestic e-sports association does not have a complete competition system in the chicken e-sports project, a new team like ours will not have a chance to stand out at all."
......
In the conference room of the M249 team's training base, Thor was walking around with an anxious face, while Lin Feng was sitting on the sofa, flipping through his mobile phone address book.
"Brother, what do you say we are going to play next, the Hong Kong Invitational and PCPI organizers will not invite a new team like us at all." Thor said helplessly.
"This kind of thing can't be rushed, who let us have no backstage and no sponsors, let alone the support of the live broadcast platform." Lin Feng said lightly.
"Then what should we do, we can't just sit here and eat now, can we?" Thor looked at Lin Feng sitting on the sofa and said anxiously: "If it weren't for the disbandment of my ATN team and the exhaustion of my contacts in the e-sports circle, I would still be able to qualify for the competition, but now...!" ”
"Hey, why is it so hard to want to play a game."
When Thor formed the ATN team before, with his connections in the e-sports circle, he still had games to play, but after playing a few domestic competitions and failing to get results, he couldn't qualify for many subsequent events, so he used his old poison's connections in the Korean e-sports circle to play in South Korea.
thought that he had won the championship of the Korean competition, and the road to competition was smooth from then on, but who would have thought that Gao Yang would do things behind his back.
Now that the M249 team has just been formed, it is difficult to get an invitation from the organizer without any fame and sponsor support, originally Ye Xintong, as a member of the E-sports Association, can help, but since she fell out for Lin Feng and Principal Wang, she has not been able to win the qualification for the M249 team in the domestic e-sports circle.
Thor was very uncomfortable now, and a feeling of being a hero was useless filled his every nerve.
There is no place for heroes, and there is no way for veterans to serve the country.
Lin Feng also knew in his heart the current situation of the M249 team, even though the strength of their team was considered to be the first-class level in China, but the gold that was submerged in the desert didn't know when it would shine.
Although he knew that the M249 team was now facing no game to play, Lin Feng was not worried at all.
He just sat on the sofa, looking at the WeChat circle of friends, his expression was very calm.
Thor was already upset, but when he saw Lin Feng's very calm expression, his heart became even more anxious.
"I said, brother, it's time like this, can you stop playing with your phone?"
"Can't we think of a way to let our team play?"
"If you don't care about it like this, our team will simply disband, and I will go home and farm, and never touch e-sports again."
Lin Feng sat on the sofa, looked up at Thor, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "This kind of thing is not in a hurry, don't worry, we will have a game to play." ”
Thor saw Lin Feng's confident appearance, and said curiously: "Brother, do you have a way?" ”
Lin Feng looked at Thor, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, gathered his mobile phone and said, "The methods are here!" ”
Seeing this, Thor hurriedly sat on the sofa, leaned next to Lin Feng, and hurriedly grabbed his mobile phone: "Show me, what is the best way." ”
Thor took the phone and saw that Lin Feng was just flipping through the WeChat circle of friends, and there was nothing special.
"You're going to show me this, what's the solution?"
"Look down!" Lin Feng said lightly.
When Thor heard this, he quickly looked down at Lin Feng's circle of friends, but still didn't see any useful information.
"There's nothing, it's just some girls' selfies and micro-businesses." Thor looked at Lin Feng and said with a confused expression: "You won't let these micro-businesses sponsor me, right?" ”
"What we lack now is not money, what we lack is relationships, relationships!"
Lin Feng took back his mobile phone, clicked on a friend's circle of friends, and said to Thor: "Now, this is the solution." ”
Thor took his phone, looked at it, and found that it was a circle of friends posted by Zhao Ming, which said that the PUBG City Championship was about to start, and it was accompanied by a poster of the audition.
"PUBG City Tournament?"
"What kind of game is this?"
Lin Feng looked at Thor, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said with a smile: "This competition is a national audition held by the E-sports Association and the Blue Hole official in China, teams from every city can participate, and then advance, and finally the national 24 city champion teams compete in the finals." ”
"What's there to participate in this kind of competition?"
"With the strength of our M249 team, do we still need to play against these grassroots teams?"
In Thor's heart, the PUBG City Championship is just a game that some grassroots teams without fame and strength will participate in, and as some old club chicken teams, they will not participate in this kind of competition at all, because their starting point is different from the grassroots team, and they are qualified to participate in many competitions, and they do not need to play this kind of competition.
When Lin Feng heard Thor's words, he naturally understood what he meant, although the M249 team was not a grassroots team, its competitiveness in China was indeed not as good as that of other old clubs, and as a new team, they were not even qualified to play.
Although the PUBG City Championship is a team composed of some domestic amateur players, including some college teams and Internet café teams, as long as they reach the finals and win the championship, their influence is no worse than other official invitational tournaments in China.
And as a new event, PUBG City Championship undoubtedly gives many new teams a chance to fulfill their esports dreams.
Many people can have the dream of professional e-sports, everyone has the opportunity, whether it is for a newcomer or a new team, it is the best stage to show their own style, its appearance can be said to have created a chicken game system and promotion mode, breaking the monopoly of the old e-sports club on the professional game.
The expression on Lin Feng's face slowly became serious, he put his arm around Thor's shoulder, and said earnestly: "Old Tuo, didn't the four of us in the AW team also start from the city competition and go to the world stage back then. ”
"Although we all have professional experience, the fact is that we can't overcome the domination of these old e-sports clubs in China, so we can only start from scratch, step by step, and become the strongest team in China."
"Only in this way can we be recognized by everyone, by our fans, and by the world."
"Only in this way can we play steadily and stand firmly, and we will stand tall on the stage of the world competition!"
When Thor heard Lin Feng's words, he was also very emotional, back then, the AW team was indeed from an Internet café team, step by step, and finally stepped onto the stage of the world competition.
Although a long time has passed, the enthusiasm and passion of that time still linger in Thor's heart.
"Brother Lin Feng, as long as you decide to play the City Championship, I don't have any opinion."
"That's fine, let me, an old bone in e-sports, take the road of youth again."
When Lin Feng heard Thor's words, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said, "Then let's work together, step by step, to create our own era of e-sports." ”
