Rebirth of the Internet Overlord

The Bird's Nest National Stadium is located in the south of the central area of ​​Beijing Olympic Park. As the main stadium for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, this national landmark building was built on December 24, 2003. It covers a total area of ​​21 hectares and has 91,000 spectator seats.

So many.

On August 8 this year, this first-ever sports venue held the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, which was praised by people all over the world, under the watchful eyes of billions of spectators around the world.

It was the proudest moment for the Chinese people. A giant walked 205 steps and left 29 clear footprints. With his steps imprinted in the sky, he brought the attention of people around the world to the symbol located in Beijing, China.

in sexual architecture.

On that day, many young e-sports viewers who were heading towards the channel stayed in front of the Internet or TV to witness the grand event.

Just like the successful launch of Tianshen 7 in the past few days, in addition to recording certain milestones, it also means that a country is prosperous and powerful.

Today, young people like them finally have the opportunity to attend the opening ceremony of the Coldplay Global E-Sports Competition. For many e-Sports players who have come to the Bird's Nest for the first time, it is easy to get excited.

thing.

Especially when the scene shifted from the outside of the bird's nest to the inside of the passage, and when he saw that the gradually expanding field of vision at the other end of the passage was showing a more spacious scene in front of him, Peile felt that he could not even suppress the excitement in his heart.

"If one day our country's e-sports players can win a gold medal for us at our own home stadium, what kind of honor will it be?"

The person walking side by side with Pei Le was none other than Hong Zhefu. Hearing what his friend said, his eyes couldn't help but be fascinated.

The moment when the five-star red flag fluttered on the field appeared in his mind, the corners of Hong Zhefu's mouth suddenly curled up.

"Our e-sports industry has developed so rapidly in the past two years. Sooner or later, there will come a day. At that time, even if you can't hold back your tears, you can cry without restraint!"

"Huh? Will I cry? I have become accustomed to it when we won the championship in the past few years. How could I be as excited as you said?" Peile smiled slightly and glanced behind him.

Without looking back, Hong Zhefu knew that Peile was referring to the team members following them. Not only Li Xiaofeng, who brought Chinese e-sports from darkness to dawn, but also other players who have always persisted in the e-sports industry.

There are also two private self-organized e-sports teams, EHOME and LGD, which only participate in League of Legends and Dota. There are 10 domestic teams. This is the full strength of Chinese e-sports clubs to participate in this Coldplay Global Finals.

This time, they will compete with other teams from Europe, the United States, and Asia in front of their hometown brothers to compete for multiple e-sports championships in the next month.

At this time, they will first roll it out in the outfield track area of ​​the Bird's Nest Stadium, and then interact with team fans according to the event plan.

Seeing the players curiously looking at everything inside the Bird's Nest, and finally entering their team's position in an orderly manner, Hong Zhefu couldn't help but feel excited.

He stood there silently, not wanting anyone to interrupt his quiet enjoyment.

A long way away, Chen Dong and Hu Binguo, the current general manager and deputy general manager of Ogilvy & Mather, walked over.

Seeing that it was the people in charge of the event, Hong Zhefu sincerely praised him before they could get closer, "In four years, we have finally lived up to Zimo's trust."

"Of course, that's what we are doing now." Hu Binguo laughed, "There are four events every year, preparations for two events, and preparations for online and TV events that have been increased in the past two years. It took these four years of hard work

, we have finally accumulated the experience to undertake large-scale events."

Hong Zhefu looked at the preparations being carried out in an orderly manner on the track and excitedly stretched out his arms to give the two of them a big hug.

At this time, Ma Tianyuan also came over with a few people. This time, not only the people who were gathered at Ogilvy and Mather, but also the event host and commentator came together under the leadership of Zhang Xiangling.

We are all in the same circle, and we often interact with each other on weekdays. Everyone started chatting before the audience even entered the venue.

"I heard that the number of people attending the opening ceremony reached 20,000, and the preparations for the event cost tens of millions. This is the most we have ever participated in in the history of the organization. So, the preparations for this time should be very troublesome, right?"

Beauty Zhang Xiangling asked Hu Binguo of Ogilvy.

Hu Binguo smiled upon hearing this and gave the opportunity to explain to Chen Dong beside him.

“Although the Coldplay Global Finals is a new event, because WeGame has organized various competitions in recent years, it has gradually accumulated popularity and group rankings for this event in the past few years.

The personnel management of the event organization is not troublesome. Since WeGame has a professional membership system, our Ogilvy IT department only needs to access the membership system interface to develop the corresponding member registration system. Therefore, the main troublesome point is the venue time and personnel.

Arrangements for food, clothing, housing and transportation.”

After a pause, Chen Dong raised his chin in Hong Zhefu's direction, "But Lao Hong is quite experienced in these aspects, and the God Penguin Group has been preparing to launch new projects in Malaysia in the past two years and cooperates with eLong.com, so in travel and

In terms of accommodation, we can also provide some cheap and high-quality accommodation for these outsiders and foreigners coming to Beijing."

Everyone immediately understood that after all, Ogilvy is a subsidiary of the Emperor Penguin Group, and the resources it can mobilize are indeed more advantageous than ordinary event organizers.

"Our boss is so powerful. Not only has his career flourished, but it has also affected our e-sports circle."

"Of course, when he came up with the e-sports event plan in 2004, the resources he put in front of us were simply unprecedented." Hu Binguo said, "We have been given so many resources, so we have to make money.

That means we don’t have the ability."

"Our players are still up for it," Ma Tianyuan said with a smile.

"Yeah..."

"Yeah."

"By the way, I heard that Huang Jianxiang was invited to be the host today! Has he really left CCTV?"

"Yes, I have left CCTV. This time I am here to serve as the host." Chen Dong signaled to Zhang Xiangling, "The main reason is that there are not many people in our e-sports circle who can hold down such a large crowd.

This time, I invited him to cooperate with Xiao Cang as the on-site host."

"Wow, our cards are big enough this time."

"I can also have more opportunities to learn from my seniors." Zhang Xiangling laughed.

As soon as Xiao Cang finished speaking, someone asked, "Is Avril really here this time?"

"Hell, this is a big deal, the ex-girlfriend of a big boss, can't you read more Weibo?" one person "accused".

"I still find it incredible," the man scratched his head, "our e-sports has been living underground for such a long time. When did such a big name invite an international superstar?"

"Stop talking," one person said with disdain, "Besides, we also invited Jay Chou and JJ Lin this time. They are also rare figures in the music industry."

"It feels so unreal, I really want to hurry up to 6 o'clock..."

Hong Zhefu felt even more excited when he heard the sighs of the people around him, but at this time he still did not forget his own job.

Pointing to the watch on his wrist, Hong Zhefu waved his hand, "It's 4:30 in 5 minutes. Let's quickly get back to our positions to prepare. There are 20,000 people at the scene. Let's try our best to be nervous and make this event go smoothly.

"

"Okay..."

"Let's go..."

…

As soon as 5 o'clock arrived, the passage to the Bird's Nest audience entrance was officially opened. Feeling the surging crowd, Gao Luoyang hurriedly told his brother Gao Luoqi at the other end, "Hold on tight, sisters. There are too many people and it is easy to get stepped on."

us."

Gao Luoyang's voice was so loud that it immediately attracted the attention of people around him.

Most of the people who came today were a group of young people. When I saw four loving couples holding hands in the crowd, there was a burst of good-natured laughter all around.

Another young girl bent over and asked Gao Luoyang, who had just spoken, "Little brother, what is your name? Which club are you a fan of?"

Gao Luoyang's face suddenly turned red when he paid attention to a beautiful sister.

On the other hand, Gao Luoqi, who was at the other end of the team, raised his chin and said proudly, "Sister, my brother's name is Gao Luoyang, and my two sisters' names are Chen Xiaoyu and Su Luoluo. My name is Gao Luoqi, and I am a fan of Team We."

At that time, Gao Luoqi was only 8 years old, but he explained their combination like a little adult, which made the people queuing up to enter the venue very amused.

The girl who asked the question was even more amused by Gao Luoqi. She simply stretched out her hand and said, "My sister's name is Ye Zixin. She is also a fan of the WE League of Legends team. Do you want my sister to take you?"

"Okay, thank you sister."

Gao Luoqi happily grabbed his eldest sister Ye Zixin's hand and moved so fast that no one around him could react.

Xia Zhifei watched with great interest from behind, and smiled at Gao Wenyuan beside him, "Lao Gao, I'm afraid your little son will not be easy in the future."

…

Today, a total of 4 entrances to the side of the Bird's Nest were opened. 20,000 people were allowed in from 4:30, and it took 20 minutes before most people were allowed in.

Ye Zixin, who was walking with the crowd, tried her best to protect Gao Luoqi and the other three children beside her.

Carefully, she also discovered that although Gao Luoyang, Gao Luoqi's brother, was not very old, he also played the role of an elder brother very well to separate the flow of people between the two sisters. And Gao Luoqi, who she was holding, was in front of the kid just now.

After growing up, he looked at everything in the bird's nest with complete confidence.

Although Ye Zixin had seen the Bird's Nest Stadium through the Internet on August 8, but when she actually walked into the Bird's Nest Stadium today, Ye Zixin realized that the 91,000-seat Bird's Nest Stadium was really too big.

Now they entered the infield track, where temporary booths of various e-sports clubs had been set up for interaction between club players and fans. The temporary booths were already crowded, and many fans rushed over.

"Hey, look at RNG's PJ."

"Then there's also WE's Luo Xian."

"Look, Sky is the first Triple Crown winner in history."

"And SOHO."

"CQ2000 is there too!"

"RocketBoy!!"

"XiaoT!"

"Oh my god, there are so many big names here!"

"This fan meeting is great! You can meet idols that you rarely see in ordinary times!"

Seeing the surging tide, Ye Zixin did not immediately lean on it, but looked further away.

The southern stand of the Bird's Nest has been closed off. Judging from the instructions on the admission ticket, that is where they will be seated later. And on the track opposite the auditorium, there is a large stage with a huge screen.

The staff seemed to be busy busy with something.

"Sister, let's go to our club."

Feeling the little hand she was holding swaying, Ye Zixin heard Gao Luoqi's urging. Turning around, Ye Zixin saw the two parents behind her smiling at her.

Ye Zixin smiled and hurriedly led Gao Luoqi and others towards the sign of WE Club.

While walking, he asked, "Rocky, who do you like in the WE club?"

"Of course it's Sister Miss," Gao Luoqi raised his chin, "Sister Miss is a StarCraft master. After moving to League of Legends, she was the only female player on the WE team. She has a very accurate Thresh Hook."

"Little Luo Qi, you actually know so much?" Ye Zixin was very surprised.

"Of course," Gao Luoqi said proudly, "Besides football, my brother and I like e-sports the most."

"Both you and your brother like WE Club?"

"Um."

"Why?"

"Because... I like it."

No matter how little kid Gao Luoyang is, 8-year-old Gao Luoyang still made Ye Zixin understand what he was hiding by rolling his eyes in a circle. But before he could ask more questions, a group of people had already arrived at the "door" of WE Club.

At that time, WE was the largest e-sports club in China. Because of the existence of names like Sky, SOHO, and Miss, it was the most famous e-sports club in the country.

But in Beijing, RNG's home stadium, the popularity of the WE team is still slightly lower. After all, although Skype helped WE win 4 Warcraft championships in succession, PJ, a StarCraft master with a considerable mass base, is the StarCraft branch of the RNG team.

player.

Ye Zixin is a StarCraft fan. Luo Xian lost to PJ last year and missed Seattle, and Miss moved to League of Legends, a new e-sports game. She feels that this is the biggest loss for WE Club and even the StarCraft player community.

But before she could feel melancholy, she saw Gao Luoqi break away from her hand and rush towards the WE Club.

"Sister Miss, I'm here to see you."

"Wow, George, you're here!" Miss fiddled with Gao Luoqi's hair dotingly, and asked with a curled lip, "I didn't bring the George pig that I promised to give to me, but I also brought your little girlfriend.

They?"

"Sister, don't talk nonsense, these are my two sisters. Your George Pig is in my bag...here"

"Where is this big sister?"

"She is a fan of your club."

Seeing that all the players from his favorite club were looking over, and even the fans who were not sure about the situation refused to come over, Ye Zixin was immediately flattered, but soon became involved in this feast as an e-sports fan.

A harmonious and peaceful atmosphere permeated the seats of the major clubs beside the Bird's Nest track. No one knew that Chinese e-sports this year had undergone huge changes because of the appearance of one person.

In the crowd, the two adopted daughters looked at everything around them curiously.

Xia Zhifei felt a lot, and something seemed to be touched in his mind.

…

"This is the opening ceremony of the first Coldplay Esports Global Championship. I am the host Huang Jianxiang..."

"I am the host Zhang Xiangling..."

"We are here to welcome all summoners, commanders and heroes!"

Seeing the two people appearing on the stage on time at 6 o'clock, the e-sports players sitting in the audience couldn't believe this fact for a moment.

"It's really Huang Jianxiang who is here, and his partner is Xiao Cang, the commentator in our e-sports circle."

"Damn it, I really want to cry when I see CCTV's gold medal commentators standing together with our e-sports commentators!"

"Wow, I didn't expect that the e-sports projects that we young people are tinkering with would one day be able to be competed in the Bird's Nest!"

"If one day our e-sports players can fly a red flag for us in the Olympics, I will die with no regrets in my life!"

The weather in Beijing is already a bit cold in November. Under the brilliant lights of the Bird's Nest, the audience wrapped in thick coats still want to hide in a place where the light and shadow cannot reach, bury their heads in their clothes and cry.

Once upon a time, the equation that e-sports equals electronic games equals electronic heroin was firmly on their minds. But they didn't expect that one day when they were still young, they would be able to sit in the Bird's Nest Stadium, which hosted the Olympic Games, and see them.

The opening ceremony of the beloved e-sports competition unfolded brilliantly.

E-sports has finally come to the forefront.

Especially since this was a place that once attracted the attention of the world!

Unlike these people who are sitting on the stage with their thoughts surging, the opening ceremony of this day is being broadcast live on Youku, YouTube, Weibo, CCTV and many other TV network platforms. Many people are staying in front of TVs and computers.

When people see the gorgeous scenes on the screen, they can't help but burst into tears.

They had been waiting for this moment for too long. They just wanted to see the day when their hobbies would be able to face the world in a bright light.

However, some people are happy and some are worried, and there are always some people who are more tolerant.

On Youku, which can send barrages, the overwhelming amount of information has already caused the Internet to explode!

Because Avril Lavigne came out, this opening ceremony with all the big names kicked off because of her!

Although this is the winter season, winter is already here, can spring be far behind?
