For this offline event, Li Xuelin, the owner of Multiplayer Games, put in a lot of effort.
At first, his plan was just to hold a small party and arrange an offline sex in an Internet cafe.
But after Zhang Yuan became a shareholder, he upgraded the event to a large party and planned to rent a hotel conference hall.
Set up a small stage for artists to perform and greet.
But now Zhang Yuan brought Yao Ming into the event again, and Li Xuelin slapped him.
Gotta do something big!
He directly booked a small exhibition hall!
The top 100 "World of Warcraft" union members in the country were invited to attend.
Although many unions claim to have thousands of people, except for those at the top who have three or four hundred people, it would be good if most of the living members have more than a hundred people.
And among these living people, only a small part are those who are free and willing to come.
But even so, thousands of people have signed up.
There are also many players who used the multiplayer guild system but were not invited and cried out for injustice.
Finally, in addition to inviting people, others who want to come can also buy tickets to enter.
However, Zhang Yuan promised to keep the ticket price as low as possible. This was originally an activity to gain publicity and gain popularity at a loss.
You can't just make money.
Originally, Li Xuelin also customized a 30-meter-long giant Yao Ming poster, intending to hang it outside the venue as a sign that day.
When Zhang Yuan found out, his hair stood on end and he quickly asked him to stop!
Yao is just looking for someone to play with.
Just publicize it privately and mobilize the enthusiasm of players and users of your union system to play more.
I made such a big poster because I was afraid that people wouldn't sue me, right?
If I really want to do this, I have to catch a train overnight to go to the General Administration of Sport to apologize!
Li Xuelin deserves to be the boss of both Sohu and NetEase, and he is really smart.
On the official day, Zhang Yuan arrived one day early.
Early the next morning, Li Xuelin drove to pick him up personally.
When the boss is a driver, the salary is quite high.
More than just his identity, he is the third largest shareholder of the company.
Especially because of his contribution to the company's publicity.
Although Li Xuelin's mind was racing, he could still tell the difference between good and evil.
Duowan is still in its infancy, and the most important thing is to increase the number of users and user cohesion.
Whether it is large-scale offline activities or blessings from various celebrities, it is of great benefit to the company's number of users.
These were all publicity methods that he had never dared to think of.
Therefore, when he was polite to Zhang Yuan, he was treating the situation rather than the person.
When we arrived at the venue, there were already crowds of people inside and outside.
The car drives directly into the underground garage and takes the elevator directly to the backstage.
"Tingfeng!"
Mr. Xie has already arrived at the scene with his assistant and band.
"Play more games, Mr. Li."
"Hello, I'm your fan." Li Xuelin greeted enthusiastically.
"Let's have dinner together tonight." Zhang Yuan suggested.
"Okay, okay, yes." Li Xuelin agreed immediately.
The plan goes through!
Mr. Xie didn't ask for a notice fee. The only condition for coming for free was to give Zhang Yuan a big meal.
Now that Li Xuelin is here, he must pay the bill!
"Brother Yuan!" He was chatting with Mr. Xie.
The special effects post-production company in the Magic City is already in operation.
The post-production of "Movie: Billions" is being partially reworked and will be completed soon.
Once it's done, the balance will be paid into your account.
With this income, the company has been able to maintain balance even after only a few months of establishment.
Next, there is the work on "Magic Phone".
Mr. Xie is discussing whether to take on some late-stage commercials to fill the gap.
But Zhang Yuan refused.
Because the company's schedule must be kept.
Leave it to whom?
"The Secret That Cannot Be Told"!
Director Jay Chou has almost finished the script. He has sent two versions to himself and is currently working on the third version.
This film will also use a lot of special effects.
Zhang Yuan agreed to Jay's investment, and of course he had to get the first-come-first-served position and take care of all the post-production work.
Mr. Xie pursed his lips and smiled.
Of course he would be happy to open a special effects company to mainland China, a hot land where the film and television industry is "vibrant and everything is booming."
But this line of work has nothing to do with it and it’s really hard to do!
His relationship is also on the other side of Xiangjiang.
When we got to the mainland, we were completely supported by Zhang Yuan.
He calculated that the company could be maintained now because Zhang Yuan was relying on his own investment.
It made him, the shareholder, a little embarrassed.
Mr. Xie was talking to him about the post-production of special effects when a short and cheerful world champion led a group of old otakus to come to him.
"Hello, Brother Yuan!"
Hula.
The dozen or so e-sports players led by Li Xiaofeng shouted in unison, which shocked him.
"You want to do performance art?"
Zhang Yuan served as the host of today's event.
Thank you for your performance.
The content of the event includes friendly competitions in games such as "Warcraft 3", "StarCraft", "CS", and "Bubble Hall".
And of course, there's the World of Warcraft game at the end.
Dungeon challenges between different unions.
Naxxramas, Stratholme, Blackrock Tower, etc...
The union selects its own elite players to compete in the battle to clear the trophy pool, and the competition is based on speed-passing time.
The current version does not have an arena, so PVP battles are not possible.
In addition, there are some on-site voting sessions, best players, best operations...
There are bonuses for each project. The amount is not high, only 10,000 yuan at most. Just have fun.
Since there is a friendly match, Zhang Yuan of course has to bring his own world champion to support the scene.
Through the club’s relationship, we also attracted a large number of e-sports players.
There are not too many domestic competitions, and many are Internet cafe competitions with only a few hundred yuan in prize money.
These people are already grateful to be able to bring them to play exhibition games.
That's why there was a scene of people lining up to bow and say hello to him.
It just so happens that Li Xiaofeng is going to play WCG again soon, so it can be used as offline training for him.
Playing games offline is really different from playing games online. Some people are so afraid that they stretch their hips as soon as they go offline.
After preparations are completed, the event officially begins.
Under the welcome of the female host, Zhang Yuan took the lead.
In exchange for bursts of cheers.
His Yang Guo is still very popular and most of the audience has seen it.
After going on stage and chatting for a few words according to the right words, the e-sports players were arranged to play an exhibition match.
These days, the chain of contempt between games is not that strong, and it is not like in later generations, where games and games, and even different characters in station games, can attack each other.
Now that the game as a whole is being suppressed, everyone is still very united.
Just like CHINAJOY who got up early, there are really a lot of serious COS, comic fans and game fans participating, many of whom participate voluntarily at their own expense.
Far less colorful than later generations.
So even when watching a game that they are not familiar with, everyone applauds and cheers.
After every e-sports exhibition game, a copy of "World of Warcraft" will be arranged.
Hundreds of high-end computers were prepared on site, all borrowed from nearby Internet cafes.
At the end of the morning, Duowan, as the organizer, provided a simple lunch.
There are lunchboxes and KFC to choose from.
Just eating for thousands of people is not cheap, it costs a lot of money.
The afternoon started with Mr. Xie's performance, which immediately aroused the audience's interest.
Moreover, Mr. Xie also borrowed a national server account and personally participated in the copy competition of "World of Warcraft".
Previously, Nicholas Tse and Zhang Yuan boasted that they were top players.
He also claimed that he had pulled together a group of colleagues in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong to form a trade union called the "Suicide Squad Alliance", and they "didn't do their job properly" all day long...
But when I arrived at the scene today, after using a borrowed account to go online, this person's operation was very difficult to see in front of the masters of the top 100 trade unions.
It basically falls into the category of being a laggard.
Zhang Yuan pursed his lips as he watched.
As a result, the time it took for other people's unions to clear their credits was much slower, and even almost failed.
After this person stepped down, Zhang Yuan stepped forward.
"Why, are you Xiangjiang artists at this level?" "Don't try to taint someone's innocence!" Mr. Xie was still anxious.
That look was exactly the same as when someone said that his old sweetheart Wang Fei was not good at playing cards.
That's all eye-catching.
He raised his finger and pointed at Zhang Yuan.
"You can say that my acting is not good."
"Say I'm not good at singing."
Zhang Yuan nodded: "Indeed."
Nicholas Tse:......
After being choked by Zhang Yuan, Mr. Xie couldn't think of a rebuttal for a long time.
I can only mutter to myself something like "the mouse doesn't follow my hand", "the mouse pad is too slippery", "the keyboard is not sensitive", "the network is not good" and so on.
Finally, when Li Xiaofeng took the stage to play the "Warcraft 3" exhibition match, he received a lot of applause.
World champion, the pride of the gaming community.
In addition, "Warcraft" and "World of Warcraft" have the same world view, and the audience is more interested.
Then comes the final World of Warcraft game.
A bunch of speedruns, that union took turns to shoot people to speedrun Stratholme.
Should we say it or not, there is a reason why I am ranked number one.
The soldiers are many, the generals are vast, and the masters are like clouds.
In the end, I cleared the dungeon nearly 30 seconds faster than the second place player.
Seeing that the last activity was over and the sky outside the venue was getting dark, the owner Li Xuelin breathed a sigh of relief.
This was the first time for him to handle such a large-scale event, but fortunately nothing went wrong.
Next comes the awards ceremony.
Take turns going up on stage to take photos with enlarged checks.
There is also a customized gold trophy.
The sense of form must be full.
Zhang Yuan was leaning backstage, waiting to get off work and grab a meal.
But when it came to the audience voting for the best union, he suddenly became energetic when he was about to fall asleep.
This is a popularity award.
It stands to reason that for this kind of best player award, everyone will choose members of their own union.
In fact, Zhang Yuan is already ready to win another award from the First Union.
What I didn't expect was that the one who came to power was not the number one Star Union.
Instead, the Gravity union, which ranked fifth, received nearly 60% of the vote.
Are you not as strong as Xingchen?
Zhang Yuan stretched out his head and took a look, and immediately understood.
When the guild received the award, a large number of female players stood on the stage!
The reason why everyone voted for them is very simple. Gravity is the union with the most female players.
These otakus and old perverts...
"Just look at this group of people and you'll know how good they are." Zhang Yuan complained.
"It's normal. I play games all day long and don't have time to interact with girls." Li Xuelin was familiar with the situation in this union and explained with a smile.
"This union is amazing."
“It was only established at the beginning of this year, and it has jumped to fifth place within half a year.”
"It depends on having a lot of girls."
When Zhang Yuan heard what MM said, a retro stream suddenly passed through his mind.
It's back, it's all back.
The days of surfing the web are back.
"Even their president is a woman, and I heard she is very beautiful." As he said that, Li Xuelin pointed to the person in the middle of the stage who was wearing a pink puff-sleeved dress, bunny ears on her head, and white high heels. Pretty girl.
She had just received the award. The female president also greeted the members on the left and right, making gestures and shouting...
"For the tribe!"
The voice was thick and loud.
Zhang Yuan clearly felt that the other party had used Dantian Qi.
And the contrast between her voice and her attire is too great!
Is it appropriate that a rabbit makes a lion sound?
However, after being shocked, Zhang Yuan squinted his eyes to take a closer look at this person, and then froze.
Li Xuelin on the side saw him staring intently, and immediately showed contempt.
"Damn!"
"You have grown like this, and you are a woman in the entertainment industry."
“Aren’t you even going to spare the girls in the game industry?”
Because Boss Li saw the word "greedy" in Zhang Yuan's eyes.
He thought that Zhang Yuan was really greedy for this man's body.
"It's quite beautiful." He also murmured.
People are afraid of comparison.
Of course, this female trade union president is not as good-looking as Fan Bingbing and Liu Qianqian.
She can't compare to Jia Jingwen and Gao Yuanyuan.
But compared with the other female players around her, she was like a phoenix among the crows.
From body, face to temperament, they all feel like they are not on the same level.
Compared with ordinary girls, this one looks like a star...because she is a star!
"No wonder the union is called Gravity..." Zhang Yuan pondered with a smile.
"The game "World of Warcraft" is really full of masters."
After the event ended, Zhang Yuan wandered to the vicinity of the auditorium.
"Hello."
"Ah!!!"
Seeing him coming, some girls immediately screamed.
Taking photos and signing autographs are indispensable.
"Thank you for coming to today's event."
"But I want to borrow your president for now, can you?" Zhang Yuan said sincerely.
"Oh..." The men and women on the side immediately made a strange sound of "you know".
"Please follow me." Zhang Yuan waved to the female president, and then the two of them headed to a secluded place.
"The president is so beautiful, even Yang Guo has fallen in love with her."
"Hoo ho ho, dating a celebrity."
"Maybe we can even have a candlelight dinner."
These people have already begun to imagine idol dramas.
The female president who was called aside by Zhang Yuan also seemed a little embarrassed.
Rubbing his fingers with his right hand, his left hand kept rubbing his right arm.
She didn't know what Zhang Yuan, a popular artist, was doing alone with him.
"Zhang Yuan, are you going to the dinner party later?" At this time, Li Xuelin came over and asked in a low voice.
"Go, why don't you go?" Zhang Yuan replied inexplicably.
"I'm afraid you have to go to the hotel first." Mr. Xie also came over and said with a lewd smile.
Apparently Li Xuelin told Nicholas Tse about his thoughts.
"Just wait for me for a while." Zhang Yuan was too lazy to explain to them.
However, the young girl in front of her heard Mr. Xie's words and became obviously more nervous.
"I, I still have something to do, why don't I leave first." The girl said tremblingly.
Zhang Yuan was also stunned.
Recently I have met too many actresses who want to improve, and many of them take the initiative to hook up with me.
Why doesn't this person want to make progress?
Although he had no intention of coaxing the other person into bed, your reaction was somewhat insulting.
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a good person... no, a bad person." Zhang Yuan tried to be as kind as possible, but he still spoke out.
"I've heard your song."
"I've also seen your play."
""Qingtian Yamen", right?"
This film is a bit like "Bao Qingtian", one case after another connects a TV series.
The starring team includes Bao Jianfeng, Pan Hong, Zhou Yemang, Gai Lili, Shen Aojun, Ren Zhong, Xue Jianing...
It can be described as a star-studded gathering.
And the girl with a delicate face standing in front of him now is the heroine and the singer of the theme song of the film.
"Miss Wan Qian, nice to meet you." Zhang Yuan extended his palm.
At the same time, an olive branch was also extended...(End of Chapter)
