Reborn in another world as a game

Chapter 610 Those things about tickets; "Counter-Strike" spokesperson?
Time soon came to the last day of September.

With the arrival of the last minute, the promotion match of "Counter-Strike" officially came to an end.

8:30 am the next day.

The "Counter-Strike" operation team issued an announcement on Weibo, specifically announcing the top 1000 selected teams.

These 1000 teams will be eligible to participate in the finals held in October. Even if they are eliminated in the first round, they can still get a bonus of 10 yuan.

It can be said to be quite rich.

As for those team players who reached the finals, the bonuses they can get are dozens or even hundreds of times higher.

Such a reward is enough to make countless players feel excited.

……

on Weibo.

When the "Counter-Strike" operation team announced the list, the game circle quickly boiled.

"The system just sent a notification letter. Our 'Team Baiyu' ranks 997 and successfully advanced. We are so lucky."

"Nine hundred and ninety-seven people...you might be downgraded after just a few minutes of playing. It's really lucky."

"Envy, I can't do it anymore. I haven't received the notification letter yet. It seems that I have been excluded from the 1000."

"I just won the 235th place. If I'm lucky, I should be able to PK twice more. It's all money. Thinking about it makes me excited."

"It seems that I am the most unlucky. Last night, the boss told me to work overtime. When I get off work, everything will be over. Hey..."

"Where did you all find your teammates? I haven't even found a suitable teammate. I'm exhausted."

"Search the Fetion group. For this kind of thing, go to the Fetion group, Tieba, game forums, etc. You can find a lot of them just by searching."

"I'll go, can it still be like this? I regretted missing it because I didn't find a suitable teammate. It's a pity."

"This shows that keeping up with the trend is a very important thing. If you are too behind, you may not even enjoy playing games in the future."

"Look forward to this game competition. I wish it success and good luck in advance."

"The "Counter-Strike" trials are over, and the next step is to buy live tickets...the most exciting moment."

"I sincerely suggest that the official venue be changed to a higher venue. Tickets for the game competition are becoming more and more difficult to buy, the price has not increased much, and the sales speed is extremely fast..."

Netizens were talking.

The news that "Counter-Strike" will appear in the game competition, from the announcement to the present, the popularity of the entire network is very scary.

As soon as it was over, the players expressed "relaxed", "almost" and "excited", but also put forward many reliable suggestions for the game competition.

For example, the issue of tickets.

The game competition was held at the Imperial Capital Indoor Gymnasium, which could easily accommodate tens of thousands of people.

Under normal circumstances, only those very confident big stars will choose such a venue for their concerts (because if there are too few audiences, it will be embarrassing).

【Thunder Games】The game competitions are held every time in the Imperial Capital Gymnasium.

I remember that in the first session, if it weren't for all kinds of gimmicks and publicity, the game competition might not even pay off.

But since the first competition was successfully held, the number of spectators has increased in each subsequent competition, until the seats are full, and even to the point of needing to grab tickets.

This year's game competition -

Many netizens who have experience are complaining, saying that this time there must be another ticket grab, and they may not be able to go to the scene, so they can only watch the live broadcast on TV/computer.

Watching the live broadcast is so boring, how can it compare to the atmosphere of the scene?

Therefore, many netizens suggested to change to a wider place, so that there is no need to grab tickets, everyone can easily buy tickets, and then go to the scene to have fun together and feel the charm and enthusiasm from e-sports.

……

"Change the venue? Looking at the entire imperial capital, it's really hard to find a suitable venue, and I have a better suggestion: simply raise the price of the ticket, double the price, ah no, double it! In this way, everyone should There is no need to grab tickets, what do all the almighty netizens think?"

Tian Moyun casually posted a Weibo.

Not surprisingly, this Weibo received unanimous negative comments and opposition from netizens.

Among them, the one with the highest number of likes has only five words: You are thinking about farts!
Of course, there are also many melon eaters who have nothing to do with themselves. In the comment area, they said, "The price increase is good, the price increase is great, and the price increase is wonderful." Anyway, they don't buy tickets, and of course they "don't mind" the price increase. Price.

Then, these people were sprayed by the group of netizens who wanted to buy tickets to watch it live, it was miserable.

"It's hard for me to do this. I can't find a suitable venue for a while, and it's not easy to rent if I find it. You don't want to increase the price of tickets... It's so difficult, why don't you give me an idea? "

Tian Moyun continued to post on Weibo.

Netizens who complained about the ticket grabbing incident at the beginning didn't know what to say.

I don’t know which god suddenly said: You can find an open-air environment, it’s really not possible to rent a few more venues to use together, anyway, the venue is not live... It’s all about watching live broadcasts, so it’s okay to put more big screens It is the same?

This is what it says...

Tian Moyun replied: You are such a clever little ghost.

Is it okay to rent a few more venues for the live broadcast?

Netizens were overjoyed, what on earth is this person thinking, isn't he deceiving himself and others.

I ran all the way to spend money to watch the live broadcast... What is the picture?

They went to watch the game live. Although it is true to watch the big screen, they also went to watch the players. There are also many people who go to the scene to support the players they like... If it is really according to the method this person said Do it, the players will definitely explode in anger.

……

"Look, how interesting the netizens are."

Tian Moyun cheerfully shared his happiness with Su Qiong.

"..."

Su Qiong was speechless.

Of course she knew that Tian Moyun would not increase the ticket price, at least not now.

Because the ticket price at this stage is not low, if the price increases again, it will inevitably leave a stereotype of ugly food.

Besides—

The operation team really doesn't care about the little money earned from tickets.

The most profitable part of the game competition is souvenirs + advertising placement. The combined income of these two pieces can catch up with [-] tickets.

More tickets and less, the difference is not big.

In order to earn such a little money, why bother to ruin your own reputation?

It's not that the poor can't afford to eat.

As for why Tian Moyun posted this kind of Weibo... It's purely for leisure and to amuse them.

"Can't the emperor find a more suitable venue?"

Su Qiong asked.

She cares more about such important things.

"Can't find it."

Tian Moyun shook his head: "The indoor gymnasium is already the largest and most suitable building. It can normally accommodate nearly 7 people, and the experience there will be the best. If it is replaced by another larger venue...of course it can accommodate more People, but the experience will not be very good, everyone spends so much money to watch the game, you can’t get other people’s mentality, right?”

"Too."

Su Qiong nodded.

For things like game competitions, the most important thing is the meaning of existence, word-of-mouth is always greater than profit.

If the word-of-mouth evaluation of the audience is damaged because of these small things, then it may not be as lively as it is now if it is held in the future.

The experience of the live audience is above all else.

People spend so much money on tickets and come all the way to watch the game, the organizer should give everyone the best sincerity and treatment, so as to promote a win-win situation for both parties.

Otherwise, who will come in the future?

The business of game competition is not a one-time buyout business, but a steady flow of water. It is best to operate it as a time-honored brand with a world-renowned reputation, or even become a modern culture with positive energy, so as to promote the healthy development of the entire industry.

……

April comes.

The game contest is just around the corner.

Some players who are interested in participating in the competition are training intensively, striving to advance twice more, or even win the championship.

Some players who are very good at playing games suddenly found that the parents who used to be very repulsive to them playing games are not as firm as before at the moment.

I didn't understand what was going on at first, but it didn't come to me until I saw the CCTV interview about Tang Wenjing and others.

Unknowingly, Tang Wenjing and a group of the most successful professional players have already reached the forefront of the times, shining like stars.

Not everyone can become Tang Wenjing, but at least, this is a beautiful goal.

At least, playing games doesn't mean doing nothing.

……

The time for the game competition is determined to be October 10th.

Tickets are already on sale.

Two sales methods are adopted. In addition to on-site ticket purchases, an online ticket purchase mode has been added for the first time.

Of course, both are the same platform system.

In order to avoid the appearance of scalpers, the ticket purchase method needs to be verified by ID card information, which is the same online and offline.

This model provides convenience to many consumers who do not want to queue.

Although it is quite troublesome to fill in various information and recharge online, compared to queuing offline... I still feel that online is more convenient.

It's just that, in this way, the ticket sales speed will be faster.

Ticket sales began on October 10, and the tickets were sold out in less than 1 hours.

Some consumers who were preparing to buy tickets soon learned of the news, and suddenly looked confused, suspecting that they hadn't woken up.

"Is this gone?"

"Are you kidding? It sold out in less than a day? Didn't you say there were tens of thousands of tickets?"

"The total seems to be 64000 tickets. It sold out very quickly last year. This year, the online booking service was also opened...It's normal to sell out in one day."

"I'm going... It's fine, why do you want to open online booking, then don't we locals have no advantage at all?"

"At first, I wanted to borrow my family's ID card to buy a few more tickets. Now it seems that I missed this opportunity to make a fortune."

"The scalper upstairs, I bless your whole family."

"I'm caught off guard. If I had known that online booking would be available, I would have bought it immediately."

"At first, I thought it would not be too late to wait, but in the end, I couldn't wait...It's so miserable."

"Are you going to sell tickets? I haven't bought one yet."

Many netizens are calling and complaining to the operation team, thinking that their ticket sales model is unreasonable.

The online booking mode has never appeared before.

This makes many consumers who want to sell tickets regret to miss it.

……

"The online ticket booking service is mainly for the convenience of gamers and friends across the country, and the opinions of the public have been collected in advance."

Tian Moyun posted a Weibo update: "I don't know if you have noticed that this ticket purchase is different from the past. You must register and purchase with your ID card... In other words, you must not only have a ticket when you enter the venue, but also a ticket." ID cards are matched, this is for everyone’s safety. If there are scalpers who want to take advantage of the opportunity, it is recommended to go through the refund procedures. There is no charge for refunds before October 10, please know.”

The game competition is completely normalized.

The first thing to change is the chaotic scalper behavior.

Tian Moyun's method against these scalpers is also very simple, that is, to spend his thoughts on tickets.

Just like trains and airplanes, the real-name system for tickets requires both tickets and ID cards to be valid.

Although this method will bring some troubles to consumers, from the perspective of the overall situation, this move directly eliminates a large number of scalpers, but can provide consumers with a more comfortable ticketing environment.

At the same time, as Tian Moyun said, this move can effectively protect the safety of consumers.

In case something happens on the scene, it can be found clearly by directly adjusting the monitoring, which is enough to deter some young people.

……

As soon as the news came out, those scalpers were stunned.

They took advantage of the online ticket booking mode and managed to order a lot of tickets. They thought they could make a lot of money, but now they turned out to be lucky. A simple real-name system for tickets directly wiped out their wishful thinking.

"Isn't this too cruel? Don't leave us a way to survive at all."

A certain scalper screamed: "In order to grab tickets, I rented a large number of ID cards with a loan. If they are all refunded, I will lose at least thousands of dollars."

"If you don't refund, it's not just a loss of thousands of dollars."

Another scalper shook his head: "[Thunder Group]'s products used to be profitable, but now it is getting more and more difficult. Now that you can still get refunds at the original price, if you can get refunds, hurry up, otherwise the loss will be even more serious. .”

The scalpers cursed and finally compromised.

They didn't think about "fighting with him" or anything like that.

Scalping cattle is not considered an illegal business, it’s just opportunistic. It’s okay to make some money from this, it’s a gray industry.

They dare to do this to make money, but it does not mean they dare to do illegal and criminal things.

What's more, [Thunder Group] is the number one private enterprise in the Great Xia Kingdom, even if they can't swallow this breath, what can they do?

After all, they didn't make it themselves.

This is the way of doing business. There are profits and losses. This is a risky thing. They can only be blamed for being dazzled by the benefits for a while.

certainly--

Not all scalpers are blood-losing, most scalpers are just messing around and not reaping any benefits.

……

As soon as this move came out, the scalpers realized that this business could not be done, so they quickly returned all the tickets.

Some consumers who did not buy tickets suddenly found that there were tickets online, and immediately bought them without hesitation. When they saw the words "Order successful, please pick up the tickets at the ticket office of the Imperial Stadium", they were relieved and felt like they were done. A big event happened.

By the way, where are the tickets?

They swiped the news on Weibo and soon knew the cause and effect.

It turned out that a large number of scalpers collectively refunded the tickets, resulting in a large number of tickets being vacated suddenly. Thanks to them seeing it in time, they took advantage of it.

"Good thing!"

"Hahaha, at first I thought it was unnecessary, but I didn't expect that there would be such benefits. The scalpers are probably dumbfounded."

"The real-name ticket system really makes sense. Suddenly tens of thousands of tickets are vacated. These ticket dealers are really ruthless."

"It's great to be able to buy the ticket at the original price. If you want to buy it from a ticket dealer, it's less than double the price."

"That is to say, if Boss Tian dared to play, he would definitely not dare to do it if it were someone else. Otherwise, there would be an embarrassing scene where the tickets could not be sold."

"The tickets for the game event are easy to sell. I'm afraid they can easily sell another [-] tickets. This thing is much better than a celebrity concert."

"It's mainly because of the strong cohesion. Many of them are fans of the game anchor, and they bought tickets to support the anchor."

"Game anchors... Indeed, there are a large number of powerful ones. When the time comes, the small light sign will be so grand, it will feel like a celebrity concert."

"Especially Tang Wenjing, she is the most popular in every competition, there are at least a thousand people who come here specially for her, and the light sign... is the most beautiful in the audience."

"Tang Wenjing is really great. The live broadcast is full of time. I'm afraid there are not many who can work harder than her. Everyone sees it."

"The main reason is that it looks good, and the team behind it is also very strong."

"According to the gossip, in this competition, Tang Wenjing's most important thing is probably the new game "Counter-Strike"."

"Why? Isn't Xiao Tang mainly playing "The King of Fighters" and "Warcraft?"

"Stupid! The game endorsement of "Counter-Strike", whoever can win the official spokesperson of this game... Tsk tsk tsk, that's really hard money."

……

The game has not started yet.

These melon eaters are discussing the game endorsement of "Counter-Strike Elite".

Some people say that a new generation star is quite suitable, and some people think that it is more suitable for Tang Wenjing to be the endorsement of the game, because most of her fans know her through the game, and the conversion rate will be relatively high...

"Look at them one by one, they speak in a serious manner, as if they are very professional."

Tian Moyun flipped through the comments of netizens and was amazed.

"Then what do you think?"

Su Qiong asked casually.

"decide as things go."

Tian Moyun shook his head: "I'm not in a hurry to find a spokesperson for "Counter-Strike". It won't be too late when the global competition starts, Tang Wenjing... Although it is quite suitable, after all, the popularity is not enough. Compared with the top class, it is much worse. Of course, if she can win the championship this time, she can consider it."

"If Tang Wenjing endorses a certain game, the fan conversion rate is indeed quite high."

Su Qiong said seriously.

"It is precisely because of this that I said I would consider it."

Tian Moyun smiled: "Tang Wenjing's fan conversion rate is indeed very high, but don't you forget, how high is the overlap rate between her fans and the existing player group of "Counter-Strike"? Moreover, her out-of-circle index is relatively high. Low, it's hard to get casual fans of Counter-Strike ... that needs to be taken into account."

"..."

Su Qiong blinked, oh, but didn't speak.

She didn't want to reveal the fact that she didn't understand, but she had already remembered Tian Moyun's words in her heart, and she was going to check back to see what the hell he was talking about...

　It's not easy for the second update, good night everyone
