Chapter 1032 Limit the number of people
When the organizing committee cannot hand over the management rights no matter what, isn't it suicide? Especially when they see more reform rules, they immediately slap the table angrily and say, "This is not reform.
They want to take away the medals that belong to our Korean athletes!”
"..." Hearing the other party speak like this, Leng Zhimeng rolled her eyes. She suddenly lost all interest in chatting. Because Leng Zhimeng knew that she felt that such rule reform was to steal gold medals from the Koreans and take away those who had passed the test.
The Korean organizing committee, which regards the gold medal obtained by cheating as a natural prize, will never agree to its own reforms.
Even if they nominally agree to reform for the sponsorship money in their hands, who knows if the other party will completely deny it after receiving the money? After all, this kind of thing is common for Koreans.
, there is really nothing surprising about it.
"Forget it, goodbye!" Leng Zhimeng didn't give the other party a chance to continue the conversation at all, and stood up and left. So this time the cooperation was considered a failure, and 00 also refused to name WCG.
Originally, this matter would have ended here, and there would not be any subsequent development between WCG and 00. But the problem is that one week after the negotiation ended, the WCG organizing committee announced a new policy, announcing that in addition to
In addition to free players, any club can only send up to 9 players to participate in WCG competitions. The quotas of players exceeding this number will be automatically canceled and given to players from other clubs who need them more.
In this regard, the WCG organizing committee also made a special explanation behind this decision. They said that based on the experience of other large-scale international sports events, only the emergence of more and more clubs can make the entire event develop more and more.
The more powerful and prosperous.
However, there are currently some large clubs that almost monopolize the awards of many projects, which is very detrimental to the development of the project. This will lead to many entrepreneurs who originally wanted to invest in e-sports to have to invest in e-sports because they cannot get results.
Choosing to abandon these projects ultimately led to a lack of funding for e-sports as a whole.
Therefore, the organizing committee came up with this restriction to limit the number of participants for a single club. This way, it can give up trophies for many projects, so that other middle and low-level clubs can also see the possibility of winning, and ultimately make the entire industry flourish.
development, so they introduced this rule to limit the number of participants in the club, so as to avoid situations such as champions being booked in advance.
As soon as this news was announced, many players applauded. Because this explanation is reasonable and restricting clubs from winning awards will indeed allow more clubs to be established and compete. This is a very driving reform for the future development of WCG.
But in the eyes of Chinese people, this decision is a decision that kills a thousand knives, because almost all the top players in China are in the 00 e-sports club with favorable conditions. The 00 e-sports club involves a total of more than ten different major competitions.
, even if these project clubs assign one of the strongest players to participate, the limit of five people directly makes most of the projects of this 0o e-sports club suddenly face the situation of having no troops to send.
You know, there are as many as 95 players in the 00 E-Sports Club who have qualified for the competition.
What is even more deadly is the players of the 00 E-Sports Club. They all happily decided to participate in the world's number one competition, but now they have been directly informed that 86 of the 95 people may not be able to participate.
It depends on who the club gives the right to participate in the end.
Many Chinese players immediately expressed angrily on the Internet that this was a rule specifically set up for China's 00 e-sports club. After all, during the WCG last year, oo e-sports club single-handedly won 12 gold medals.
This number not only ranks first among all e-sports clubs, but also ranks first when compared with the gold medals obtained by all countries. This directly leads to China's 15 gold medals, dominating the WCG gold medal for two consecutive years.
Being at the top of the list keeps the Koreans under their butts.
As a result, the Koreans are going to cheat this time and actually limit the number of participants for the club. Even if all 9 players sent by the club win gold medals, there will only be 9 gold medals. It is impossible to repeat the 12 gold medals last year.
What a feat.
In fact, it is not just Chinese netizens who feel very dissatisfied. Other electronic clubs such as Europe and the United States are also affected. There are three clubs there with more than 9 participants.
On the contrary, because the e-sports industry in South Korea is relatively developed and the competition is fierce, there are many e-sports clubs. Therefore, although there are more than 120 players in South Korea, no e-sports club has been subject to this rule.
As a result, all Korean players can participate.
Not to mention this, after some players counted the number of participants in each club, they were surprised to find that there were exactly 9 participants in two clubs in South Korea.
This makes people have to suspect that the purpose of setting this rule by the wcg organizing committee is to ensure that all its own players can participate and at the same time limit the number of opponents to the maximum extent possible.
After all, if you want to limit it, then most people will definitely choose an integer when determining a number, such as 5, 10, 15, etc. He directly determines it as 9. Such a number that is only one digit away from 10, no matter how you look at it,
Very weird.
It's a pity that no matter how public opinion is on the Internet, the wcg organizing committee still states that the rules are very reasonable, all players are very supportive, and there is no possibility of changing them again.
This is normal. After all, this is a country that can even blow the whistle when hundreds of millions of people around the world watch the live broadcast of the World Cup. It is obviously impossible to expect them to abandon the rules because of a little online public opinion.
On the other hand, it was obviously impossible for the OO E-Sports Club to accept such rules. They immediately negotiated with the organizing committee and expressed their hope to modify the rules or wait until the next competition to implement the rules instead.
Come on this session.
But the organizing committee didn’t even meet anyone from the 00 E-Sports Club. In a word, things were done according to the rules. Everyone abided by the same rules. Why can others do it but you can’t?
What makes 00 E-Sports Club even more furious is that the WCG Organizing Committee has even begun to deal with these deleted participation quotas, and most of them will fall into the hands of South Korean players who are unable to participate.
It has been finalized that 00 e-sports clubs can only suffer from this.
Soon, the news reached Leng Zhimeng, so Leng Zhimeng, who was yelling angrily, once again led people directly to the organizing committee office.
It was already the end of February 2006, and there was less than a week left before the wc area was held. In order to supervise the wcg on-site, the entire organizing committee had basically arrived in China, and then it was held on the second floor of the competition venue.
We had an organizing committee office, so our manager Meng just flew over from China.
Of course, when trying to enter the organizing committee office, Mr. Meng was stopped by the security personnel blocking the door.
"Go tell Li Xianghe that bastard that I am Leng Zhimeng, and I want to have a good talk with him!" Mr. Meng's voice was like an explosion. The security personnel did not dare to neglect, so they called to inquire as soon as possible, and then
Shaking his head, he replied, "President Li said that everything should be done according to the rules. There is no need for him to meet you!"
"Haha!" Leng Zhimeng laughed dryly, then looked at the security guard in front of him and said, "Little brother, which company are you from?"
"Ah, I'm from the management office of the Greenland International Trade Center!" The security guard was stunned for a moment, and then said honestly.
"It's from the Greenland International Trade Center, right?" Leng Zhimeng nodded, took out the phone and dialed a number directly. After a while, he said, "Liu Xiangjiang, the chairman of this Greenland, did you talk to my brother-in-law last time?"
The one we drank with?"
"If you ask him to call me directly, I will ask him if he is going to stop me when I enter our own International Trade Center." Leng Zhimeng said with bared teeth and claws in a tone that could not be refused.
After a while, Leng Zhimeng's cell phone rang, and then Leng Zhimeng quickly put away the arrogant expression before, but started to complain like a baby with a depressed look, and then the person in charge of the security department ran over directly.
, withdrew all the nearby security personnel, and the entire International Trade Center was unguarded in an instant. Leng Zhimeng directly led the people to the second floor.
On the second floor, there were several Korean staff members in the organizing committee. They wanted to stop them, but when they saw Leng Zhimeng coming with hundreds of people behind him, they gave in and disappeared instantly.
Without trace, Leng Zhimeng kicked open the door of the organizing committee office with a very clean kick, startling everyone in the organizing committee who were having a meeting.
"Mr. Meng, your behavior is excessive. You are violating the law. I am now solemnly warning you to take your people and leave immediately. Otherwise, I will disqualify your club from participating in the competition in the name of contempt for the organizing committee!
"President Li Xianghe is still relatively calm.
Although he was startled at first, he immediately stood up and shouted harshly, as if he was not at all frightened by the hundreds of people behind Leng Zhimeng.
"Dog Bangzi!" Leng Zhimeng pointed directly at Li Xianghe's nose and scolded, "You don't need to disqualify us. I will now officially inform you that our 00 e-sports club will withdraw from all WCG competitions, and permanently!"
Hearing this, Li Sanghe felt a pain in his heart. You must know that this oo e-sports club is not an ordinary club. There are too many Chinese e-sports stars behind it, and many of them are also world-class e-sports stars.
For example, Tian Tian, the Emperor of People, has tens of millions of fans all over the world. If these people quit WCG, then WCG will probably lose more than half of its Chinese audience in an instant. As for how many fans will be lost worldwide
Audience, only God knows.
In fact, what Li Xianghe said just now was just a casual threat. He did not expect that Leng Zhimeng actually agreed directly. This made Li Xianghe feel paralyzed, but he still wanted to maintain his noble demeanor of the Republic of Korea and said, "I know.
It’s up to you!”
Of course, Li Xianghe had already begun to think secretly in his heart about who should be hired as lobbyists to help persuade the irritable Miss Leng Zhimeng, and then give in appropriately and give over ten or twenty entries to oo
E-sports club, thus ending this dispute.
Well, in fact, Lee Sang-hwa never thought of really only giving oo e-sports club 9 places, and he directly got into trouble with the strongest consortium in e-sports. He just used this method to punish Leng.
Zhimeng, then step back appropriately.
This will not only punish the woman Leng Zhimeng, but also demonstrate the generosity of the Republic of Korea. Finally, it will also reduce the number of competitors for the Korean players. It really kills two birds with one stone and kills two birds with one stone.
Chapter completed!
