This AD is too stable

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is already the day of the S9 season, the LPL Spring Finals.

Before the game started, the official had done a lot of publicity for tonight's game, and of course there was no shortage of spectators telling each other about it.

With the IG team winning the championship in the S8 season, major universities across the country have set up e-sports clubs in half a year.

Now it has become an extremely fashionable thing.

Young people like to follow the trend, and many school e-sports clubs can even borrow the school's gymnasium, auditorium, and playground to broadcast tonight's finals.

The e-sports industry is also in line with the tone of "positive energy".

Now many people praise a person for being efficient and efficient, and they will be described as "this person has a strong e-sports spirit".

Even many leading Internet companies encourage employees to have "e-sports spirit". To be "e-sports" is to not slack off or lie flat.

In the past six months, LPL has made a lot of money purely by selling event broadcasting rights, on-site tickets, and advertising sponsorship.

This also makes Tencent, the super capital behind LPL, which has an investment of more than 40 trillion yuan, attach great importance to e-sports!

With capital eyeing it, hot money will naturally roll in. The venue for the Spring Finals is directly placed in the Shanghai Stadium!

It can accommodate more than 80,000 people to watch the game at the same time. It is precisely because of this that LPL is very worried that the tickets will not be sold.

80,000 tickets are not comparable to any small venue. Even scalpers dare not act rashly.

After all, this is just the spring regular season, not the finals of the S game.

However, the official's worries are obviously redundant. The 80,000 tickets were sold out within 10 minutes of being online!

Passion, bursting passion!

Even if it is a phenomenal star, to hold a concert in the Shanghai Stadium, to be honest, it has to be promoted for several months in advance.

After all, the venue is too large, there are too many seats, and the rent is expensive.

The time of the game was no different from the usual regular season. The game started at 5:30 in the evening, but ticket checking had already begun in the morning.

However, even 80,000 tickets seemed to be unable to stop the enthusiasm of the audience.

It was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon when the EDG bus arrived at the entrance of the Magic City Stadium.

Lu Ziang looked through the window of the bus and saw the sea of ​​people outside. The visual impact was indescribable.

"There are so many people... Everyone is too enthusiastic, right? Fuck, I never thought in my life that there would be so many people coming to watch our game."

Qijiang has seen the world and participated in various competitions, but he was still shocked by the flow of people in front of him.

It's not because there are so many people, but because these people are here for e-sports.

Chen Dong beside him also smacked his lips and said, "It is said that there are more than 100,000 people coming tonight, and the venue is basically full. What we see are the audiences who didn't buy tickets outside the venue!"

"The traffic pressure and security pressure are directly maxed out."

Qi Jiang licked his lips. Wherever he looked, there were a large number of staff wearing security uniforms to maintain order.

"Yes. It is said that LPL has brought in 1/3 of the security companies in the entire Magic City. In addition, there are a large number of volunteers."

"Traffic control has been implemented in this entire area. Otherwise, there will be more people, which will completely exceed the limit of this place."

Chen Dong explained.

Then his eyes swept to several EDG players and said with a smile: "Little guys, are you feeling stressed?"

"When the time comes, the shouts will drown out everything."

"Will you feel a little bit proud to enjoy such flowers and applause?"

Everyone shook their heads hurriedly, but their eyes betrayed their thoughts, because they were already excited and fascinated at this moment.

Let me ask you one question.

Who doesn't want to become famous on such a stage? !

Who doesn't want to hear the audience shout loudly: EDG is awesome? !

What kind of scene will that be?

…

On the Internet, discussions about tonight's final have long been everywhere.

Xiaohongshu, Bhu, Weibo, Douban, Hupu, various short video platforms, all places that the Internet can reach!

There are people discussing tonight's game, and the popularity is so high that it is even more terrifying than last year's S8 season global finals.

Of course, there may not have been so many people entering the e-sports last year.

But in the past six months, a large number of cloud players have emerged, at least more than half of them are viewers who have never played LOL.

There are also a large number of game players of various types who have become the audience of e-sports events.

These people will havePeople who follow the herd mentality are easily swept along by the crowd.

After all, everyone is talking about whether RNG or EDG will win tonight, but I don’t even know what EDG is.

Wouldn’t that seem strange?

What’s more, the main audience of e-sports is young people, who have several characteristics:

Energetic, plenty of time, empty pockets...

E-sports events are free to watch, and you don’t have to spend a dime. At most, you will consume a little traffic fee.

If you are watching the World Cup, you may have to open a VIP account to watch the game.

Of course, traditional sports events, except for football and basketball, are not very entertaining.

Therefore, it is difficult to cause such a sensation!

…

“@Everyone, the leader has approved it. Now we need a lot of strong men to move equipment and set up curtains, so that we can watch the Spring Finals on the playground!”

“@Everyone, viewing spots for the Spring Finals: Chenguang Stationery Store at the east gate of the school, Wangyu Internet Cafe, Shining Internet Cafe, Monopoly Internet Cafe, Leyaoqing Bar…”

“@Everyone, Lin Yi from dormitory 318 sponsored a 50-inch monitor for everyone to watch the game…”

“@Everyone, the owner of Mixue Ice City at the school gate said that the billboard will be used to broadcast the Spring Finals tonight.”

…

Students from colleges and universities across the country are trying every means to gather together to watch the game.

Various small shops are also trying to catch the heat and provide students with free viewing venues.

The LPL has also opened up Maoyan, Taopiao, and other movie ticket platforms to sell tickets for tonight's game.

The pricing is no different from movie tickets, but you can watch tonight's BO5.

…

Lu Ziang has already got off the club bus with his bag on his back.

When EDG appeared in the player channel, it caused a huge sensation!

All eyes were focused on everyone, and there were a lot of mobile phone lenses and camera flashes.

"EDG! EDG is here!"

"Come on EDG, I like you guys so much, crush RNG!!"

"Although I didn't buy a ticket to watch the game, I will cheer for you outside the venue!"

"Lu Ziang!!!"

"Ahhh... Lu Ziang is so tall and handsome, much more handsome than in the video...!!"

...

It was the first time for EDG to get so close to the audience. Their enthusiasm made the EDG players feel a little overwhelmed.

They could only smile and wave to everyone. Fortunately, the player channel was separated by a fence, and there were a lot of security personnel to maintain order on the scene.

"So nervous!"

When everyone entered the backstage of the venue, 369 patted his chest and said excitedly: "Really, they are so enthusiastic!"

"Don't think too much. Focus on the game. If we lose the game tonight, you can try and see if they throw your stinky socks at you."

Qi Jiang saw 369's excited and excited look and poured a basin of cold water on him:

"Remember, we are not stars. We are not idols, we are just professional players. What they like is our domineering figures on the field!"

"Do you understand?"

Qi Jiang has been famous for a long time, and his words can be regarded as a shot of prevention for everyone in EDG.
