Monday, September 26th.
After having lunch at Moyu Internet Cafe, taking photos and signing autographs with three enthusiastic fans, Pei Qian planned to go to the DGE Club.
Pei Qian was careful when signing, and just signed the word "Pei".
Because if you sign your full name, fans will definitely wonder, is "Pei Qian" the actor's name or the name of Mr. Pei?
If this is the actor’s name, then both the actor and Mr. Pei happen to have the surname Pei? Is it such a coincidence?
If this is Mr. Pei’s name, then... 50,000 words are omitted here.
Therefore, Pei Qian only signed the word "Pei". On the one hand, it is to prevent fans from making too many associations and to protect his identity. On the other hand, it is to express a good wish.
As the weekend passed, the number of fans I met at Moyu Internet Cafe became less and less.
This shows that Huang Sibo's trick of "I am my own substitute" has obviously worked, and has greatly reduced the number of fans interested in Mr. Pei's identity.
It is conceivable that as time goes by, Pei Qian will be disturbed less and less.
As for the GOG Global Invitational Tournament, although it ended successfully yesterday, the subsequent popularity will continue for a while and will involve many aspects.
For Yangyang Games, the GOG Global Invitational Tournament is an important part of GOG’s international server promotion strategy and has played an excellent role!
This game has in-depth cooperation with foreign live broadcast platforms, and the number of viewers has reached new highs. It even surpassed ioi in terms of popularity on the Internet for the first time.
This marks a staged victory for GOG’s overseas currency promotion plan!
Of course, the foundation of MOBA games is relatively deep. In such a short period of time, it is unlikely that GOG will completely overtake ioi overseas, which has made early efforts, but no matter what, GOG has begun to challenge on a global scale. ioi's first mover status is already an indisputable fact.
In China, the GOG Global Invitational Tournament has also made GOG's throne more stable, and even attracted a large number of players from other games to join the game!
In the final analysis, this success comes from the following aspects:
High bonuses and large-scale coin-spending publicity have gathered extremely high popularity.
Overseas audiences saw that overseas established clubs entered the semi-finals, which ensured attention before the semi-finals. After the semi-finals, although there were no foreign teams, the domestic teams contributed to the top level of competition, so there will still be Continue to pay attention;
Domestic audiences gained a great sense of pride when they saw domestic clubs beating established overseas clubs, enhanced their recognition of GOG, and began to deeply connect GOG with the concept of "e-sports" Together;
In this format, Chicken Thief is very effective.
In addition, there were endless memes during the competition, such as Huang Wang lifting a nearly 30KG trophy with one hand at the end of the competition.It went viral on the Internet and had the effect of "breaking the circle".
In addition to Yangyang Games, many other industries have also benefited from this competition.
Needless to say, managed gyms. Several managed gyms are already full, and there are even many people queuing up on the APP to wait for a spot.
Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0 has also received higher attention.
Originally Xiao Peng wanted to build Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0 into a part of Tenda’s e-sports ecosystem. Now, under the influence of the GOG Global Invitational Tournament, this process has been greatly advanced!
Huang Wang lifted the trophy and the H4 Club monopolized the sky-high bonuses, inspiring countless high-end players. Many people want to become professional players. Now they have two ways:
One is Go to major clubs (including DGE) for trial training, and these major clubs happen to be in Jingzhou;
The other option is to go to the ladder to find outstanding players to form a team, and go to Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0 competitions and training together , first start playing in Internet cafes, and then work hard to enter the professional circle.
The number of reserve players that an e-sports club can absorb is very limited. After all, the club has to produce results. If the results of the trial training are not satisfactory, they will be persuaded to quit, and they will not support so many idle people.
But Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0 is different. If someone can keep winning in Internet cafe competitions, then the prize money from these competitions alone can barely support the whole team and maintain basic life. This makes those dream-chasing teenagers There is one more way.
As early as the success of Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0, Pei Qian had already agreed with Xiao Peng to continue to open branches, and Xiao Peng did indeed open Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0 to several densely populated, young areas in Jingzhou. Areas with a lot of people have just experienced the first wave of craze in the past two days.
Pei Qian could only ignore these.
He can no longer control the current Internet cafes. Open more branches, give out more bonuses, and as long as you don’t pay me, he can do whatever he wants.
As for whether it will have a greater impact on GOG in the future, that is definitely not something to worry about this cycle.
As for why he went to the DGE Club...
The main reason was that Pei Qian suddenly felt that the DGE Club could be saved again.
The previous DGE club disappointed Pei Qian, but now, all the team members have been sold!
Huang Wang can just take the trophy. He is now a member of the H4 club. Even if it brings a lot of popularity, it still belongs to the H4 club.
Of course, in the short term, everyone will still associate these players with the DGE club.
But what about three months or half a year?
In the past, the DGE club was very popular because of its strength.
The reason for its strong strength is that GOG is in its infancy and embryonic stage. DGE is ahead of other clubs and has been in progress for more than two months.The high-intensity and professional training quickly opened the gap with other clubs.
But after the operation of "the sky is full of stars", the competitive level of other clubs quickly caught up.
If the ten new Internet-addicted teenagers in the DGE club play against clubs like H4 or EK, they will definitely be tortured to the point of doubting their lives.
In other words, the DGE club can no longer maintain its previous dominance.
In e-sports, strength speaks for itself. If there are no results, the DGE club will soon be forgotten. At most, it will remain in the e-sports circle as a meme and will no longer make a lot of money for Mr. Pei.
So, Pei Qian is going to take a look at the situation of the DGE club. If he is optimistic, he can trust them again.
For this reason, Pei Qian also specially made a reservation in advance at Mr. Li's Mingfu family dinner and prepared to treat the team members to a feast.
……
DGE Club.
The new DGE first and second teams are playing training matches.
The ten people were concentrating, the sounds of typing keyboards and mice were heard, and the captains of the two teams were also giving continuous instructions.
Coach Zhang Yuan and Yaling looked on and talked quietly.
"It seems that yesterday's finals gave them a lot of stimulation. Everyone, they all held their breath today." Coach Yaling said.
Zhang Yuan nodded: "Yes, for sure. Watching their seniors kill everyone in the finals and win the cup with one hand, these people must also be very inspired."
"However, haste makes waste. If you want to improve your strength, simply increasing the amount is useless. The key is to pay attention to scientific training methods. I am a little worried that their current state is counterproductive."
"But there is no better way."
Coach Yaling looked at the whiteboard next to her, which showed the results of the two DGE teams' training matches with other clubs in the past two days. They were almost identical. Total defeat.
Although these new players are selected from countless high-scoring passers-by who have actively signed up, they are not regular troops after all, lack of integration, and have no power to fight back against other clubs.
It is precisely because of this that the two teams practiced particularly hard.
But in e-sports, hard work is very important, but hard work does not necessarily lead to rewards.
Many times, talent, a good attitude, and scientific training methods are more useful than ineffective efforts.
The more impatient the team members are, the easier it is to fall into such inefficient efforts.
Zhang Yuan was very worried about this, but could not think of a better way.
Maybe it’s time to find a coach?
But finding a coach means trusting the coach's arrangements wholeheartedly. The current coaches have either been poached by other clubs or are not strong enough. Zhang Yuan will not be able to find a suitable one for a while. Candidate.
Having a headacheThen, Pei Qian walked in.
Coach Zhang Yuan and Yaling stood up quickly: "Mr. Pei!"
Pei Qian greeted them and found an empty seat to sit down.
He inadvertently glanced at the training match results on the whiteboard and subconsciously showed an expression of joy.
Why is the record so miserable?
These training matches were all scheduled with domestic teams that had been eliminated in the past two days. In other words, they were playing against weak teams, but they still lost more than they won.
What a good news!
Pei Qian couldn't help but nodded slightly, well, it looks like the start is much better than the previous group of players!
Why were the last batch of team members so scattered that the sky was full of stars? It was because I started too early that I won at the starting line.
And this group of team members lost at the starting line!
This is very comfortable.
But then, Pei Qian saw the focused and serious-looking team members in the training room, and found that they all seemed to be highly focused and training hard.
Pei Qian frowned instinctively.
Don’t be optimistic too early, there are still huge hidden dangers!
This group of DGE players were tried out after the DGE club became popular. All of them are very talented and very young high-scoring players.
If they continue to practice like this and their strength soars quickly, wouldn't they soon fall into the same vicious cycle?
DGE club beat other clubs in training matches →DGE’s myth continued →Sponsors invested crazy money in sponsorship →Other clubs offered high prices to buy people →DGE club’s reputation became more famous, and more passers-by with high scores came to try out. .
In that case, things will get out of hand!
Moreover, compared to other clubs, high-scoring players prefer to come to DGE for trial training. In addition to the brand effect of DGE, career prospects are also a very important consideration.
Because other clubs will try to lower the price when signing a contract, preferring to sign a three-year contract with a lower salary. It is difficult for many talented players to show their worth before they prove themselves in the game.
After signing a long-term contract, the club will not sell it, which is a great loss for the players.
But in the DGE club, everyone knows that if you show your worth, you will be bought out at the speed of light, so it is perfect as a springboard.
In other words, DGE does not need to bid with other clubs at all, or even offer high prices to these players, they will flock to them!
Because the newcomers who come to the DGE club are not here for the salary of the three melons at the moment, but to prove themselves and the big contracts offered by other clubs in the future!
The more Pei Qian thought about it, the more worried he became.
If we really develop according to this script and monopolize those talented players from the very beginning, wouldn’t the DGE club be hopeless?
No, no, this group of players has had such a good start, we must do something to keep it going! You must not enter this vicious cycle!
Obviously, these current team members have all seen yesterday’s GOG Global Invitational Tournament finals, and they all feel like they have been beaten to death. They must find a way to change their mentality.
It is useless to pour cold water on them. On the contrary, it is easy to have the opposite effect. They still have to use favorable conditions to corrupt their will to fight.
Pei Qian watched the battle silently.
……
At five o’clock in the afternoon, the training match ended.
The next step is the post-game summary meeting and dinner time.
Zhang Yuan’s expression became even more worried.
Because he could vaguely see that it would not work if he continued practicing like this!
In the past, when the two DGE teams practiced against each other, it was a fight between gods. Because the two teams started early, and Huang Wang and Jiang Huan’s understanding of the game surpassed other club players and coaches, so the two teams The more you practice, the stronger you become.
But now the two teams of DGE are practicing against each other, and they have become rookies pecking each other!
While other clubs are on the right track and constantly developing new tactics, the shortcomings of the two DGE teams not being led by professional coaches have emerged. The captains of both teams are not as good at game understanding as other clubs. No matter how hard you practice, you won't get a good training effect.
But the key point is that Zhang Yuan is just a manager. He can see some problems but doesn't know how to solve them.
The two teams could only discuss the issue of playing style separately. Although they seemed to be summarizing seriously, they were unable to unify their thoughts and sum up the lessons quickly. Instead, there were signs of blaming each other. .
Zhang Yuan looked at Mr. Pei subconsciously.
Mr. Pei has not spoken much since arriving at the club in the afternoon, but silently watched the two teams playing training matches.
Zhang Yuan felt that there must be some special reason why Mr. Pei came here at this juncture, right?
Mostly they are worried about the talent gap of DGE club!
Zhang Yuan felt that President Pei must have also seen the problems he had seen.
I just don’t know how President Pei will solve this problem.
Zhang Yuan waited quietly for Mr. Pei to speak.
Watching the team members having a heated discussion, Pei Qian's worry became more and more intense.
Because the two captains were carefully summarizing the problem, and the team members were also putting forward their own ideas, it seemed that they were having a fruitful brainstorming session.
The training is also very hard, and the review after the game is also very serious. If we keep doing this, maybe the two new teams of DGE will catch up with other clubs soon!
After all, the two original teams of DGE were successful using this training method. Pei Qian felt that they should never fall into the same pit twice.
