Starting From The Internet Shenhao

"What is the highest prize money in e-sports games and how much is the prize money?" Chen Hao asked.

Lao Zhou immediately replied: "It's DOTA2. There are not many domestic players in this game, but the number of players in the world is still okay.

In addition, its game prize money is ridiculously high!

If you rank according to the amount of prize money in a single game, then the DOTA2 World Championship can take the top five!

Last year’s TI8, the global DOTA2 tournament, had a prize money of up to 30 million U.S. dollars!

Then there is the prize money of the CSGO competition, which is more than 11 million U.S. dollars. "

After listening to Lao Zhou's words, Chen Hao was a little surprised.

He doesn't pay much attention to this thing. According to his impression, the world has been popular for so many years, and the competition was very successful, and the prize money should be the most.

Just asked: "What about League of Legends?"

Lao Zhou replied: "This game is pretty good, but the prize money is a bit out of the ranks. The prize money of the last World Series was only more than six million US dollars."

Chen Hao shook his head again and again, this fist company is too stingy!

Who doesn't know that 撸 ah 撸 is a cash cow!

Every year, just selling game items such as skins can earn billions of dollars. How can I get a prize for a competition, but I am so willing to pay such a small amount of money.

It is estimated that it is not just the issue of Riot. Penguin has also played a big role in it. It is estimated that Penguin, an absolute majority shareholder, has siphoned off Riot's profits.

It’s no wonder that Penguin has been buying money around the world over the past few years. Where does the money come from...

The League of Legends is estimated to have contributed a large part of it.

He said without hesitation: "If you want to get more attention, you must have enough heat! Holding a large-scale world competition is a good way, of course, "PUBG Mobile" is a new game. At present, there are no e-sports clubs to form professional teams. This is not possible. We must involve the world's e-sports giants!"

Lao Zhou immediately understood that Shen always has to continue to spend money to run competitions.

"There is no problem with holding the game. Now the process of holding e-sports competitions is very mature, and there are many e-sports clubs in various countries around the world. As long as these clubs feel profitable, they will immediately form teams to participate in the competition. The problem is, How much do we have to spend to host the game to get the attention of these clubs?" Lao Zhou said.

Chen Hao raised a finger.

This time, Lao Zhou learned his lesson and boldly guessed!

"One hundred million yuan? That's 15 million U.S. dollars. This amount is very high, and it will definitely attract enough clubs to participate." He said excitedly.

Chen Hao shook his head, "No, it's 100 million dollars!"

This once again frightened everyone in the conference room.

Just now Chen Hao invested 500 million yuan to crack down on plug-ins, so everyone can barely understand.

After all, the plug-in problem will affect the "life" of the game. If the defense is not good, it will cause a devastating blow to the game.

It is understandable to invest more funds.

But now, just to run a competition, pay 100 million U.S. dollars?

What a picture!

The world tournament of DOTA2 has high prize money, but the money is not paid by the game company.

Instead, selling props like "pass" or match packs is equivalent to the prize money raised by global DOTA2 players for the match!

What Chen Hao means now is that this billion dollars is paid by Lemon Interactive Entertainment.

This is totally different!

"Does it need so much money? Or, we also learn from the steam company, selling passes and other props before the game, so that players can raise money for the game."

Old Zhou feels a little bit painful. The 500 million yuan and the 100 million US dollars are only on the company's account. I can't stand Mr. Shen so "spoiled"!

Besides, other games can allow players to pay for the game bonus. Why should the company pay for it when it comes to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds.

In terms of player base, the current PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds does not persuade any game!

"Yes, although our "PUBG Mobile" is currently selling very well, this game is a buyout system. As players buy the game, the income will be less and less in the future." Vice President Hu also tolerated Can't help but say.

She is in charge of finances and of course knows the company's revenue very well.

Like the "PUBG Mobile" buyout system model, the early income is indeed very high!

Because players want to play this game, they must pay for it.

However, players always have a saturated day, and those who have bought games will of course not buy them again.

Therefore, the company's revenue will become less and less...

You can’t just spend a lot of money on the company’s accounts. What should I do after the money is spent...

Facing everyone's puzzled eyes, Chen Hao patiently explained:

"You only saw that the prize money of the DOTA2 World Tournament was raised by players, but don't forget that others have held several World Tournaments. With a sufficient player base, there are also many professional teams participating in the competition.

But we are different!

We are just a new game, and almost no e-sports giants have formed a "PUBG Mobile" team.

If we host the World Series, but there is no clear bonus amount announced, then there will not be too many giant e-sports clubs to participate, they may wait and see for a period of time to see what the situation is before they start.

But we can't wait. What we want is to promote our games to the world as quickly as possible, and attract the attention of global e-sports giants and game players!

Therefore, it is the easiest and most effective way to come up with an amazing game bonus!

It is conceivable that as long as the amount of our game prize money is announced, how global players and the e-sports giants from various countries will react..."

Well, after listening to Chen Hao's explanation, everyone in the conference room realized why someone else is the boss, and he is just a hitman.

This is the pattern...

This is courage!

Of course, Chen Hao has enough financial resources to support him so "willful".

If there is no system, but he is really relying on starting from scratch to achieve his current career, it is estimated that he will not be willing to spend so much money to host the competition...

………………

On September 20th, an announcement was made at the same time on the lemon game platform and the "PUBG Mobile" section of the steam platform.

"The first World Series will be held soon, the prize money of the event: $100,000,000! 》

The bonus amount is marked with a bold and enlarged red number, which is very eye-catching!

The content of the announcement is very simple, that is, the first "PUBG Mobile" global finals will be held in December at the end of the year.

The world is divided into two major divisions, the Asian division and the European and American divisions!

As for Africa...

Sorry, is anyone there playing games?

Maybe there are, but those who can reach the professional level are probably not enough to make up a team, so they just ignore it.

And Asia, that is definitely the continent of e-sports!

Among other things, China and South Korea alone are estimated to be comparable to all other countries in the world.

Each division will have an intercontinental competition in November, and 16 teams will be selected to enter the global finals.

In other words, there are a total of 32 places in the global finals, and the finals will also determine the championship through the knockout stage and the final stage!

Of course, it is impossible to give the championship team all this billion dollars.

From the beginning of the intercontinental trials, there is a bonus distribution.

As long as you can qualify from the intercontinental trials, you can get a lot of money, at least half a million dollars!

For the 32 teams in the finals, the better the results, the higher the prize money.

The final championship will be able to enjoy at least 20 million US dollars!

This bonus amount has almost caught up with the total bonus of the DOTA2 World Series...

As for the League of Legends, the prize money of the game is not worth mentioning!

It can be said that as long as there is a team that can win the championship, it will be rich overnight. The four players of the team can each get five million dollars, and they will look back at Wu You for a lifetime!

As expected, after this announcement was announced, it immediately caused an uproar in the global gaming circle!

………………

European e-sports giants, America e-sports giants, major e-sports clubs in China and South Korea...

The heads of the clubs learned of the news for the first time, and after confirmation, all the clubs held emergency meetings.

"Immediately form the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds team and tap the most potential players. We want this billion dollars!"

This sentence is almost the first sentence spoken by the head of every club during a meeting!

In e-sports competitions, what do you rely on to get results?

Of course it is a player!

In PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, there are four people in a team, and they don't pay attention to the upper, middle and lower fields like Luah Lu and DOTA2, because this game does not need to be divided into several lines.

Only four hunks are needed, the gun is hard enough, that's enough!

So when selecting players, it's relatively simple, it just depends on your marksmanship!

As for tactics and the like, that's the coach's business. It's good to train after the team is formed.

All of a sudden, the top-ranked kings in the major servers have become sweet cakes!

Almost everyone can receive several trial invitations.

The global gaming circle immediately became chaotic...

…………

In the mountain city, in a remote alley, there is a black internet cafe.

Although it's only morning, the Internet cafes are already full of voices.

"Second, come and pull me, dammit, I got a headshot with 98K! Fortunately, I am inside the wall and he can't make up for me. Xiaogang, give us a gun and kill him!"

"Play 98K in front of me and watch me teach him to be a man, haha."

"666, Xiaogang is still a good one. The M4 triple lens can match the 98K gun. No loss is the king's level."

"Hey, your rank, the level of the opponent you matched is too average, I'm frying fish ponds."...

Several teenage boys are yelling and playing "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds". Obviously, this is a team of good friends who are playing offline.

During this period of time, similar scenarios occurred in Internet cafes of all sizes in various cities across the country.

It can even be said that Internet cafes, whose business has been declining, have been rescued by the game PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds...
