Chapter 374: Attention received

Hu Jing didn’t say anything. He just quietly started another custom match.

It was still Orianna who killed song, but the Champions of both sides had switched.

IF’s other team members were all staring at the screen with full concentration, not even daring to breathe loudly.

This was practically teaching Hu Jing how to play games!

If Hu Jing lost again this time, then there was nothing to be dissatisfied about. If he could solo your Orianna with deathsong, and then use Orianna to solo your deathsong again, then it would prove that this was not a difference in Champions, but a difference in strength!

Ten minutes later.

“FIRST BLOOD!”

After reaching Level 6, Orianna hid the ball and pulled back deathsong with her ulti. Similarly, she took the turret before taking deathsong’s head and escaping with little health left.

Hu Jing was speechless.

Because he felt that he couldn’t win, he really couldn’t win! If the first round was a little strange, the second round was a clear difference in strength.

Hu Jing himself had played a lot of anikra before, but he had never felt that it was so difficult to hit anikra’s Q-skill. Orianna’s positioning was extremely strange and she was always able to avoid his Q-skill. The few Q-skills that were used to block the road were also blocked by Orianna’s shield with her E-skill.

Death Song had been at a disadvantage in laning the entire time, so it was inevitable that he would be killed in the end. Even if Hu Jing had been holding on, he would have been the first to fall from the tower.

Chen Mo stood up,”talent can allow you to get the upper hand, but if you think talent can crush everything, then let me tell you something: The Korea players train 16 hours a day. ”

......

Hu Jing was silent.

“Let’s go,”Chen Mo said to Sun Xiao.

After Chen Zhao left, the atmosphere in the training room was still very heavy. Hu Jing stared blankly at the computer screen, as if he was recalling the two times he had played against Chen Mo.

“Leader, let’s take a look at the information of the foreign teams.” Hu Jing said.

……

Before the league of Legends S1 World Finals, the domestic video game media had also treated this as a major event in October.

This was because this competition was different from any previous e-sports competition. In every sense, it was one of a kind.

League of Legends was currently the most popular esports game in the country, and it was also moving towards this goal worldwide. In other words, this game had an extremely deep audience base, and its popularity would definitely be high.

The prize pool for the finals this time had created a historical record. No competition organizer had been able to take out so much prize money, which was a big gimmick in itself.

From the information revealed before the game, this would be an e-sports competition that was completely innovative in all aspects. Every detail was carefully crafted and almost the top professional e-sports players in the country were gathered. There was no doubt about their professionalism.

Moreover, the title of S1 had already revealed Chen Mo’s ambition.

S was the short for ‘seaon’, and ‘S1’ was the first Season. If there was a first season, there would be a second and third season. Chen Mo obviously wanted this number to continue, and he would host the world Finals every year.

In the field of e-sports, there was indeed no game company that could do this. In the past, game developers and e-sports competition organizers were often different companies, and it was very rare for the developers to organize the e-sports competition all by themselves.

Clearly, Chen Zhao wanted to do something that no one had ever done before.

The venue on the tenth floor of the miles square was already filled with a few waves of local reporters. There were even one or two foreign reporters who traveled thousands of miles to take videos and introduce the details of the competition to the foreign players, such as the current situation of the venue and the preparations of the teams.

The players were all very excited about the competition. After all, it was a game made by a domestic company, held in China, invited so many international teams, and even provided such a Grand venue and a prize pool that could create history. No matter how you looked at it, it was a feast and a party.

However, there were many people in the gaming industry who were criticizing this competition.

“Chen Zhao’s really taking too big a step this time. Isn’t he afraid of pulling his balls? The prize money for the e-sports competition was raised to seven million dollars? You burned too much money?”

“Yeah, a million dollars is enough to make these professional clubs fight for it. Seven million? I have too much money to spend!”

“Esports is purely burning money. Can we recover the cost?”

“Take back my ass, just the prize money alone is more than 40 million, and the rental of the venue is more than 30 million a year. How much can we get back just by selling the tickets? Even with the video broadcast, it’s still far from enough!”

“I heard that he’s going to hold a league tournament at this venue.”

“League tournament? How many people would watch the league tournament? The tickets were selling fast because it was the annual Grand Finals, and it was the first one. The league tournament is played all year round, so there will definitely be few people watching and the ticket price will have to be lowered. I really don’t think we can recover the cost!”

“I can’t figure it out either. If we’re talking about spending money to promote a game, League of Legends is already dominating the entire PC market. Other than a few old-school FPS and mmorpgs that are struggling to support it, the other PC games have long been squeezed to the point of being unable to hold on. Would promoting such a popular game make it skyrocket?”

“Yeah, it’s time for them to get paid. With the popularity of League of Legends, even if Chen Mo didn’t organize a competition, there would be other people begging for it. He didn’t have to worry at all.”

“Maybe he’s really ambitious, but I think he’s too optimistic. With the current domestic environment, it’s hard to maintain e-sports in the long run.”

“It’s better if it can’t go on. It’d be best if it can drag Chen Zhao down.”

“Sigh, we’ll know when we see the popularity after this competition.”

……

It was obvious that most of the developers in China would find it difficult to understand Chen Mo’s advanced thinking, and they couldn’t predict how popular e-sports would become in the future.

In October, everyone’s attention was focused on the S1 World Finals of League of Legends. Whether it would be a feast or a farce, they would only know when the game started.

……

It was October 5th, the day of League of Legends’s S1 World Finals.

Many players had already arrived at the distant square and were ready to enter.

Jia Peng, Chang xiuya, li jingsi, Lin Xue, su Jinyu, zou Zhuo, Zheng Hongxi, and the others came to the entrance of the arena. Qian Kun was already waiting for them.

These tickets were all given by Chen Mo and they were all good seats in the front row.

However, other than Qian Kun who had arrived early, the others had just arrived at the Grand Finals venue, so they felt very fresh.

At the entrance of the stadium was a three-meter-tall statue of Catarina. Many of the audience members were taking photos beside the statue.
