Create a great era of e-sports

Zhang Zhaoyang was so choked up that he didn't open his mouth for a long time.

At least IG won the runner-up position and can beat MSI.

The Emperor Star didn't even have a hair on it.

It made him roll his eyes: "Hit people without slapping them in the face, scold people without exposing their shortcomings, Old Mo, you are really nothing."

Mo Yu smiled beside him and said, "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"It's just a gut punch."

Zhang Zhaoyang covered his chest and made a strange look.

"Should!"

Wang Shicheng stabbed him again in the side.

Awards were being given on the stage and there was fun in the box.

After making a fuss for a while, Zhang Zhaoyang waved his hand and said: "No more fuss, no more fuss, let's get down to business, are you two going to see MSI this year?"

"I will definitely go. This is the first time that our IG has entered MSI. As the boss, I must go and see the scene." Wang Shicheng turned to look at Mo Yu: "Old Mo, what about you?"

Mo Yu shook his head: "I won't go. I have to go to the imperial capital if I have something to do."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhaoyang joked: "Imperial Capital? What, to meet my father-in-law or to see my wife? That's right. We haven't seen each other for such a long time, and we are separated by days and days. It's time to pay the official food."

"Don't bullshit."

Mo Yu was speechless: "I have business, go over and meet someone."

"Really or not?" Zhang Zhaoyang was dubious: "Are you really not meeting your wife?"

"Why did you lie to me?"

Mo Yu glanced at him and said speechlessly: "Go and meet the Huo family."

Imperial capital.

Sports Bureau Community.

Merchant.

The computer in the study room is on a live webpage, and the webpage is showing the scene of EDG winning the championship, and the loudspeakers are ringing with warm cheers from the scene.

In front of the computer, an old man and a young man were sitting, staring at the screen, obviously watching the game.

At this point, the game ends and the awards are presented.

Shang Cunyuan took off his glasses and rubbed Shangen gently. He looked away from the computer screen and turned to look at a young man with soft features and a smile beside him. He sighed: "As I get older, my eyes tend to get dry after looking at the computer for too long. I can't compare. You are young."

"No way, Mr. Shang, you don't look old, you are still very young."

The young man behaved modestly and politely.

"My family knows their own affairs, old man."

Shang Cunyuan pushed his chair away, stood up and moved his body. The young man handed over the water glass in due course.

After exercising for a few times, he felt his body relaxed. Shang Cunyuan took a sip from the water glass and turned to look at the young man with a smile: "Xiao Huo, could you please accompany me, an old man, to watch the game for a few hours? How's it going? How do you feel?"

The young man's name is Huo Qi.

From the Huo family in Hong Kong Island.

In addition to being the eldest son of the Huo family and the fiancé of the diving queen, he also has another very important identity - a member of the Olympic Council of Asia.

in addition.

The Huo family has a great influence in the sports world. The current head of the family has made great efforts and made outstanding achievements in the country's Olympic bid. He himself also holds an important position in the Olympic Committee, and the Hong Kong Island sports world is even more powerful.

Huo Qineng joined the Olympic Council of Asia at such a young age, and the old man of the Huo family was also behind it.

"Interesting."

Facing the biggest boss in the domestic sports industry, Huo Qi carefully chose his words: "E-sports has developed extremely rapidly in the past two years and has been warmly welcomed around the world. Many countries have increased their emphasis on e-sports, especially the Moyu Company. Its games, first of all, are very popular."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shang Cunyuan with a wave of his hand: "Don't make clichés, behind closed doors, without outsiders, be direct and tell us your views on e-sports and whether it should be promoted vigorously."

Huo Qi paused, knowing that Shang Cunyuan wanted to hear his true thoughts. After thinking about it, he simply opened his mouth.

"Should!"

"Oh? What's the reason?"

Shang Cunyuan's eyes lit up, and he was obviously very interested in what was coming next.

Huo Qi was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "As a new sports project, and it emerged from China, I think e-sports should be vigorously promoted."

"First of all, I think that regardless of whether e-sports is a sport, whether it is promoted or not, it has actually been promoted. There are so many e-sports enthusiasts across the country and even around the world. The momentum is so strong that it is impossible to stop it."

"Second, e-sports itself is inevitable. As long as online games exist, this is an emerging competitive sport that will appear sooner or later and is impossible to disappear."

"Third, the e-sports industry has formed a scale, and our country is at the forefront."

He simply listed three reasons, but all of them hit the point.

The rise of e-sports is unstoppable.

The world is far from just Moyu Game. There are many game companies following suit, and the scale has been formed.

In this case, it is better to clear it than to block it.

It is better to go with the trend than to go against the wind.

"Insightful." Shang Cunyuan nodded with satisfaction: "The rise of e-sports is unstoppable, and there is no need to stop it. This is the general trend, so it is better to take advantage of it as soon as possible."

"Yes." Huo Qi agreed: "There are many e-sports competitions around the world now. I have actually watched a few in Hong Kong. It is quite interesting. Competition and fun coexist. It is no worse than traditional sports, especially among young people. It is very popular among people, but the older generation may not be used to it.”

"This is a matter of concept. There is nothing we can do about it, but don't forget that the future belongs to young people." Shang Cunyuan stood up and sat down at the desk: "To be honest, I asked you to come here today. In addition to meeting, there is another One thing, I heard that the Olympic Committee plans to establish a subordinate e-sports association?"

The matter discussed by the Olympic Committee should be kept secret, but as Shang Cunyuan learned about it, it was not surprising.

When he asked, Huo Qi didn't hide it and admitted directly: "Well, there is such an issue. Someone suggested that the development of global e-sports is in full swing and suggested the establishment of a management organization called the Asian Electronic Sports Federation. English Asian Electronic Sports Federation, abbreviated as AESF.”

If Mo Yu were here, he would be very surprised to hear the name AESF.

In both worlds, AESF has been established in the previous life, but now it is still on paper.

"AESF's main responsibilities are to promote e-sports culture in Asia and even the world, and manage e-sports related affairs in Asia. It is also an independent and autonomous intercontinental sports association recognized by all national members of the Council."

"The board of directors is still discussing it. Based on the specific circumstances, I think it is very likely that it will be successfully formed."

“Otherwise, this year’s Spring City Asian Games would not have added a dedicated e-sports exhibition match.”

Huo Qi came along and explained all the details clearly.

After listening to it, Shang Cunyuan said thoughtfully: "It seems that the Olympic Council of Asia is very optimistic about e-sports."

"In my opinion, it should be." Huo Qi nodded: "Many members agreed when the issue was raised, but after all, the matter is of great importance, so it still needs to be discussed, but I don't think it will take long, maybe this year in Spring City There will be results after the Asian Games, no later than next year, and there is a high probability that it will be passed with a high vote, and the AESF will be formally established and made public by then."

"But this matter has not been determined yet. I wonder what you mean by asking?"

Huo Qi was a little confused and didn't know what Shang Cunyuan was going to do when he asked about this matter.

Just when he was confused, he heard Shang Cunyuan slowly say: "You also said that the rise of e-sports is unstoppable. In this case, of course we must seize every opportunity. Xiao Huo, are you interested in joining AESF?"

"Or, running for election as the first AESF president?" (End of this chapter)
