Chapter 99 Bad News

What is the Global Invitational Tournament?

Players and business partners don’t know it, but they can roughly guess it from the name alone. It should be a world-class competition similar to traditional sports.

What shocked them even more was that Chenxing actually came up with the concept of "bonus crowdfunding" and was willing to put 50% of his income into the bonus pool.

This is two million dollars!

Converted to 14 million.

In other words, Chenxing earned 28 million yuan in income from a single pass in three days!

This number makes many thoughtful people take a breath of cold air.

Friends and businessmen should ask themselves, if it were you, you would probably be willing to give out 5% to 10%.

Make a decision!

But players don’t care much about the company’s income.

They were just shocked by the prize money of the competition.

"Oh my god, with a two million dollar bonus, if there are five people in a team, each person can get 400,000?"

"It's definitely more than that. You see, after Chenxing announced the news, the bonus pool began to skyrocket, and now it has exceeded 2.1 million!"

"I saw in the announcement that the sales time for passes ends on the day before the start of the game, which means that the prize money will increase!"

This sentence makes many people's hearts beat.

Four hundred thousand dollars is definitely a huge amount of money for many people.

What’s more, the bonuses are still increasing?

In less than three minutes, this post became a hot search topic.

Not only domestic players, but also overseas players are also discussing crazily!

"Damn it, no one can stop me! I'm going to invite my friends to compete together!"

"How to register? Do I need to go to Chenxing's headquarters to register?"

"Hey, my home is right next to the European Chenxing headquarters, I'll go first!"

"I just looked through the comments on Sky. Several Chinese peripherals forwarded the news and said they were sponsors! Are these companies trustworthy?"

"Just think about the [Star] series graphics cards. I just want to ask now, are the managers of our graphics card companies all a bunch of pigs?"

"It's hard to imagine that the field of high-end graphics cards has been broken through by Chinese companies. This should be our field, but the [Star] series graphics cards are so easy to use. When I use other graphics cards, I feel very stuck."

"..."

VVV headquarters, the roar echoed through the sky.

"Why don't you contact Chen Xing? Why?!"

Bute's usual elegance was gone. At this time, he was like a gambler who had lost all his chips, staring fiercely at the row of people in front of him with red eyes.

When Chenxing rejected VVV's request, Bute mocked them in front of his subordinates.

Looking back now, how sarcastic the tone was back then, how painful my face is now.

Facing the angry chairman, these managers could only lower their heads and endure his roar. They didn't even dare to wipe the spittle flying on their faces, and secretly complained in their hearts.

Originally, they thought that online games produced by Chinese people would be unsuitable for the local environment and would soon be abandoned by overseas players.

But who would have thought that Chen Xing, who was not taken seriously by them at the beginning, could make such a big splash this time?

And you were the one who showed a arrogant attitude at the beginning, letting the other party play the game first and then cooperate, and also asked the other party to pay money, wasn't it you?

They only dared to mutter this in their hearts but did not dare to say it out loud.

The popularity of CS overseas makes them all secretly frightened.

If that's just it, forget it. The two companies are not on the same track anyway, and the popularity of the game has nothing to do with them.

But the terrible thing is that CS has also made the [Star] series of graphics cards popular!

Since this graphics card became popular and was reviewed by major bloggers, the sales of VVV’s new graphics cards this year have been cut in half and hit rock bottom.

They once conducted a survey in the company and found that the proportion of employees within the company who played CS reached an astonishing 70%!

And among these people, 60% purchased [Star] series graphics cards!

This does not include those who wanted to buy but couldn’t and those who were afraid that the company would find trouble and did not dare to complain.

In the end, this ratio is only high, not low.

Now there is another e-sports competition, and the popularity of the game has exploded again.

With this amount of discussion, which company wouldn’t be greedy?

It is foreseeable that the glory of the high-end graphics card industry this year is destined to belong to the little-known Pangu Technology, and VVV’s financial report this year will be very ugly.

I guess I can barely recover the cost.

But there is nothing the senior management can do.

After all, this is a technology product, not a PPT. You can create a graphics card that is better than the [Star] series with just a few words.

After losing his temper, he looked at the group of people and said fiercely: "Where is the director of the development department? Next year our new products will increase by 30% based on the performance of the [Star] series! Don't squeeze out toothpaste for me.

Yes, did you hear that?!"

"Yes..."

The director of the development department looked bitter.

In the past, they enjoyed the feeling of being chased, but now they have become the chasers.

And 30% is easier said than done? Not to mention that their current products are still far behind the [Star] series.

"Minister of the Marketing Department, please contact our game companies immediately and ask them if they have any new products to launch recently and if they want to cooperate. In addition, contact Morningstar and tell them that VVV is willing to be their sponsor next year and take over the CS competition business.

Grab it!"

The corner of the marketing department director's mouth twitched slightly.

This is easier said than done...

Unless Pangu Technology is stupid, no one can stop the cooperative relationship between these two companies...

......

VVV is just a microcosm of many overseas manufacturers.

Take the North American graphics card company that first rejected Chenxing as an example. Their vice president personally went to the Chenxing headquarters and sheepishly wanted to provide technical support for the CS competition, but was ruthlessly rejected by Lin Muchen.

It is said that after he returned, he had a fierce quarrel with the board of directors and directly fired the supervisor who refused Chenxing's invitation.

But this is not what Lin Muchen should care about.

The majority of players did not have to wait for a long time. Chenxing released the specific schedule and registration channels for the Global Invitational Tournament the next day.

The world is divided into four competition regions, namely China, North America, Europe and other regions.

The first three competition areas will divide the twelve places equally, and the remaining four places will be selected from areas that are not covered.

By then, sixteen strong teams from all over the world will gather in Qincheng to compete for the world championship!

Because there is no concept of a club in this world, auditions from the player base have become the only feasible way.

However, in order to prevent the fish from joining in the fun, Lin Muchen deliberately raised the registration requirements, requiring players to register must have a gold rank of 2 or above.

Even so, the number of teams that signed up for the competition soon reached more than 200.

But when the competition here was in full swing, Hu Gang brought him bad news.
Chapter completed!
