Ma Tianyuan won, but his series of actions after winning the game caused some controversy.
According to the normal process of WCG, after the game is over, under the arrangement of the referee, the winner will go to the loser's side and actively shake hands with the loser to show friendship.
But Ma Tianyuan didn't wait for the referee's arrangement at all. As soon as the game was over, he slapped the mouse on the table and ran directly in front of his opponent Story. With Story's surprised expression, he patted Story on the shoulder and said, "Come on next time."
He turned around and returned to his seat.
The on-site referee was inexperienced and watched the whole process. He did not take action to stop Ma Tianyuan and watched helplessly as Ma Tianyuan completed a series of actions.
After Ma Tianyuan returned to his seat, the referee didn't know what to do. Logically speaking, they should go through the normal process at this time, but the referee always felt that it was too strange to bring Ma Tianyuan to the story again.
Finally, the referee directly announced the end of the game and the handshake ceremony was not carried out.
Regarding Ma Tianyuan's series of actions, the audience present had different opinions. Some people thought that although Ma Tianyuan was a little excited, he did not do anything extraordinary, but others thought that Ma Tianyuan lacked the overall situation, had no sportsmanship, and even
Some people have risen to the national level and believe that China has lost face in front of many countries.
Korea is also protesting. They believe that Ma Tianyuan lacks sportsmanship and extremely disrespects his opponents. His results must be cancelled, and Story must be declared the winner of the competition.
Moreover, Goryeo's protest was not raised by the players themselves, but by representatives sent by their country's Ministry of Culture... It must be said that Goryeo really attaches great importance to this competition. Apart from them, no other country's culture
The ministry will send a representative over.
Since there is a protest, Deep Space Company, as the organizer, will definitely conduct an investigation. After several hours of investigation and research, the competition committee finally gave the result: because the player Ma Tianyuan did not comply with the competition procedures, he was fined 20,000 yuan, but
His behavior did not affect the result of the game, so the result of the game remains unchanged.
In this way, Ma Tianyuan became the first player to be fined by WCG. Of course, Korea was not satisfied with this result, but it was hard to say anything. After all, the penalty was quite heavy. Twenty thousand yuan, no matter which country it was placed in
, can’t be said less.
However, for Ma Tianyuan, this punishment is not painful, because all the fines are paid by Yunchi AG Club, and he personally does not need to pay a dime.
When Yu Dong heard the news that Ma Tianyuan had "committed a crime", the results of the treatment had already come out. What was even more outrageous was that because of this incident, Ma Tianyuan directly made the headlines of the Deep Space Tribe, and the title was enough to make people vomit blood - StarCraft:
After the game, the Chinese players rushed in front of their opponents and smashed their mouse angrily.
The first half of this news headline is true, and the second half is also true, but together they are false.
Ma Tianyuan obviously smashed his own mouse, and rushed to the story after smashing the mouse. But looking at the title, normal people would think that Ma Tianyuan smashed his opponent's mouse.
Regarding this news, the Deep Space Tribe directly issued an announcement to refute the rumor.
Amid this tug-of-war, the popularity of the StarCraft competition remains high.
Originally, this competition attracted more attention from game enthusiasts, but as soon as the news came out, ordinary viewers also became curious and wanted to find out what this competition was about.
[Forwin: Is the scene so crazy? Isn’t it just a game?]
[King of Keyboard: What game is this called e-sports? Do you understand e-sports? 】
[Haquin: This competition is so fierce from 24 to 12. This Chinese player is really embarrassing.]
[Alvin Prairie: I think this MA is very sincere. Besides, he didn't do anything. He just walked to the opponent's area in advance to show friendship. Patting on the shoulder was obviously to encourage the opponent. ]
[Porter 123: I am going to buy a "StarCraft" to play, what should I pay attention to? 】
[King of Xelnaga: Congratulations, you have entered a world full of miracles. 】
[Lunt Ethnic: Newbies can follow the official account of Yunchi AG. Their account has just been established not long ago, but they publish some game tips and strategies every day.]
[Flying Wings: Haha, yes, MA is a player from their club. They have just launched a tribe. Every time a player from their club wins, there will be a lottery. 】
[Tissue paper: I declare that from today on, I am a supporter of MA. 】
[November: It’s a pity that China is so far away, otherwise I really want to visit it. 】
[Note: I heard that the venue is not limited to China. Any place can apply to host the next one, just like the Olympic Games.]
[Boston Rabbit: This news is true, our Boston Esports Association is already preparing to bid.]
[Flying Dutchman: Boston actually has an e-sports association, but Amsterdam doesn’t seem to have one.]
[Team A: I haven’t heard of one in Paris. Does this have to be an e-sports association to apply? If I personally want to apply for Paris, is it possible to succeed? 】
[Sword of Judgment: I don’t know, you can follow the Deep Space official, they will release news after a while. But even if you need an organization, as long as you have money, wouldn’t it be enough to set up an association yourself? 】
[A-word group: But I have no money.]
[Sword of Judgment: ...But what is certain is that the next session will not be an invitation system, but an audition system. At that time, they will divide the competition into various competition areas. Players can participate in the audition competitions in each area and break through in each competition area.
After that, you can represent the region in the competition.】
[Flying Dutchman: I also want to participate, can I participate personally?]
[Sword of Judgment: I don’t know if individuals can participate. If you really want to participate in the competition, there are many newly established clubs that are recruiting people. You can give it a try. If you can be selected into the club, you will not only be able to
By participating in the competition, you can also get support from the club. There is a newly established Cliff Club here in Boston. If you become an official player of their club, you can receive a monthly subsidy of at least two thousand US dollars.】
[Flying Dutchman: Too bad I’m in the Netherlands.]
…
Yu Dong watched the news about the Deep Space Tribe for a while, then looked up at Jimmy, who was sitting in front of him with his legs crossed and a leisurely look on his face. Without asking, just by looking at this guy's expression, he knew that he was behind this matter.
The Onion news that made the headlines was probably not written by Deep Space Company, but it is too easy for Deep Space Company to block that news. They only need to directly remove the news from the shelves or use technical means to reduce its popularity.
Deep Space did not do this, and immediately issued a rumor refuting announcement, which directly pushed the news a step further. This rumor refuting news was basically ordered by Jimmy.
"I even doubt it."
"What's the suspicion?" Jimmy asked.
Yu Dong stared at Jimmy, "I wonder if Ma Tianyuan smashed the mouse and ran over to pat his opponent on the shoulder. Did you instruct him to do so?"
Their first World Electronic Game Competition was indeed well organized, and the attention it attracted was not bad, but the popularity did not meet Jimmy's expectations. What he hoped was that through this competition alone, WCG would become a world-renowned official website. Competition.
Therefore, Jimmy must do something topical - such as Chinese players provoking Korean players after the game.
Jimmy smiled and shook his head, "I really didn't do this."
Before Dong Bian could respond, Jimmy added: "If it was my design, Ma Tianyuan should not have gone over and patted Story on the shoulder. He should have smashed Story's table with his keyboard, and then the punishment given by the competition committee would have been higher." , it is better to pay 10,000 US dollars instead of 20,000 RMB. In fact, there is a better script. First, let several other Chinese players have something happen when they compete with the Korean players, such as the keyboard not working, the screen flickering, etc. , and then let Ma Tianyuan carry the Chinese players on his back, hoping that after passing five levels and winning six, he will step on all the Korean players and ascend to the championship."
"Thus--"
Yu Dong took over the conversation: "In this way, it can not only portray Ma Tianyuan as an e-sports national hero who 'resists foreign invasion', but also stimulate the hatred between the two countries' e-sports, and hatred is the most narrative. An event As long as it has a story like 'feud', it will definitely gain topicality and ratings, because the audience likes to watch this kind of thing."
Jimmy laughed, nodded and said: "Those who know me, Dongye, I have indeed thought of doing this before."
"Then why didn't you do it later?"
"I don't think it's necessary. Although conspiracy and tricks are easy to use, they can be easily exposed and are not good for our reputation."
Regarding Jimmy's explanation, Yu Dong shook his head, "This explanation doesn't convince me."
Jimmy curled his lips, "Actually, I saw that the emotions of both parties have been aroused. We don't need to instigate any hatred or anything like that. It will happen naturally. Ma Tianyuan's behavior confirmed my thoughts."
Yu Dong nodded, this made sense.
In fact, Ma Tianyuan's performance was beyond Yu Dong's expectations. Ma Tianyuan, a kid who usually keeps quiet, turned out to be so irritable on the field.
Yu Dong also watched the video of today's 24-to-12 game. Although Ma Tianyuan's behavior was not particularly out of the ordinary, the action of patting Story on the shoulder seemed to encourage him, but his facial expression was really vicious.
, as if trying to eat people.
Just now Yu Dong saw in deep space that some netizens jokingly called Ma Tianyun the most evil person in e-sports.
"Actually, the level of Chinese players is much higher than I thought." Jimmy said with a smile, "Obviously the conditions are not very good in all aspects, but a master like Ma Tianyuan has emerged. I did some research and found out that the main contributors are actually
Or the Asian Alliance Battle Network.”
"Asian Alliance Battle Network?"
"Well, Asia Alliance Battle.net is a battle platform that started to operate for free this year. After the launch of Blizzard Battle.net, there are many StarCraft battle platforms similar to Battle.net in China. I estimate there are hundreds. But these
Most of the platforms are restricted by software and hardware, and are not large in scale. Some of them are relatively influential, such as Yanjing 263, Yalian Battle Network, etc... Yalian Battle Network is rich in capital and equipped with high-configuration servers.
, purchasing the advanced version of fsgs is not restricted by Linux version 999..."
Jimmy introduced the Asian Alliance Battle Network and finally concluded, "It won't take long for the Asian Alliance Battle Network to unify the Chinese Star Battle Network."
Yu Dong immediately understood what Jimmy meant, "You want to say, it's time for us to take action?"
"Yes, that's what it means."
Yu Dong frowned. He didn't know much about Asia League Battle Network because he came into contact with games relatively late. He had never used Asia League Battle Network as a platform, but as a platform that almost unified China's Star Wars Network
, Yu Dong also heard some things about the Asian Alliance Battle Network.
Yalian Battle Network was indeed popular for a while, but then Xiangjiang Capital intervened and began to force fees, causing players to disperse overnight.
It can be said that the Asian Alliance Battle Network is a failure case of Internet operations.
A successful case is Tencent QQ. They relied on the Monternet service launched by China Mobile in 2001, opened the mobile QQ business, developed paid memberships, and launched more value-added services, thus cultivating users' paying habits.
However, deep space has already done this.
Without the help of China Mobile, Shenzhen Sky Company still managed to do this, all thanks to Star Card. According to statistics, more than 75% of members use Shenzhen Sky points to redeem membership.
There is no other reason. Deep Space Points are free. Even if you don’t have points, it is cheaper to spend money to buy points and then redeem them than to buy memberships directly.
Dongdong membership costs ten yuan per month, and if you use deep space points to redeem it, you only need one hundred and twenty points. In some areas, it only costs at least three or four yuan to buy one hundred points. Under normal circumstances, one hundred points is just
It costs about six yuan. No matter how you calculate it, it is more cost-effective to buy points and redeem them for Dongdong membership.
The reason why the "exchange rate" of deep space points in various regions is different is because of the differences in the difficulty of obtaining points and the frequency of use in various regions.
Take Shanghai as an example. The number of Internet users in Shanghai is growing very fast, and there are many stores like Sony stores that cooperate with Deep Space Corporation, so it is very easy to use points in Shanghai.
However, there are not enough places to earn points in Shanghai. It is difficult for locals to earn points, and there are many channels to use points. This makes deep space points relatively expensive in Shanghai.
On the contrary, similar to Chengdu, there are many channels for people to obtain points, but there are few places to use points, which makes local deep space points relatively cheap.
Deep Space uses this kind of "implantation" method to cultivate users' paying habits. However, only Deep Space can do this, and other companies cannot imitate it.
Although the Asian Alliance Battle Network ended miserably in the previous time and space, Yu Dong did not underestimate them and nodded very seriously, "Not to mention whether to compete with the Asian Alliance Battle Network, it is also time for Blizzard Battle Network to consider its domestic layout.
Chapter completed!
