Chapter 355 Preparation for the World Finals

The "League of Legends" S1 World Finals is already under intense preparations at this time.

For this S1 World Finals, Chen Mo inspected several companies and finally chose the organizer: Yanhuang Information Technology Co., Ltd.

The predecessor of this company was also a relatively large studio in China, but it later transformed into e-sports live broadcast. At present, it has recruited a large number of anchors, directors, and event organizers. From a professional point of view, it should be regarded as the best in China at present. of.

For the S1 World Finals of "League of Legends", several other companies wanted to win the right to host the competition, but Chen Mo was not satisfied after the inspection, so Yan Huang was finally settled.

At present, Yan Huang has offices in both the magic capital and the imperial capital, and the relevant person in charge also attaches great importance to it, so the communication is very smooth.

Regarding the location of the S1 World Finals, Chen Mo also picked a few places, and finally settled on the 10th floor of the Broad Plaza in the magic capital, a multi-functional studio.

I chose this place mainly because in the parallel world, the entire e-sports atmosphere of the Magic City is also the best, and most clubs are here.

The price of this venue is also relatively expensive. At 90,000 yuan per day, Chen Mo directly signed a long-term lease contract and planned to rent it for at least one year. This venue will not only serve as the venue for the S1 World Finals, but will also serve as the venue for the S2LPL Spring Split in the future.

After finalizing the location, Chen Mo also inspected the site, met with the person in charge of Yan Huang, and then provided Yan Huang with a complete set of decoration plans.

The entire venue is dominated by Chinese red. Outside the Broad Plaza building, a huge "League of Legends" professional game poster is hung for publicity.

In the stadium, the first is the passage to enter the arena. On both sides of the passage are the flags of various teams, large portraits of players, as well as signature walls, voting walls and so on.

There is also a special display wall inside the venue, which mainly contains some hero-related figures and peripherals for display. At present, there are not many official figures of "League of Legends", only more than 20, including Galen, Katarina, Card Master, etc. These figures are all displayed on the display wall.

In addition to the figure, there are also some peripherals, such as Teemo's hat, Galen's big sword and so on. There are also some fan-made peripheral models, all of which are of high production level or ingenious, are also placed on the display wall, and the name of the maker is marked.

There is also a wall, Chen Mo plans to display the uniforms of various professional teams. Of course, many professional teams are not standardized enough at present, and they do not have uniforms yet, and these are also being made in a hurry.

The layout of the arena is based on the structure of the LPL spring game.

The auditorium is facing the game field, and in the center is a large screen, which is used to display the main screen of the game.

On the left and right sides of the super large screen are two strip-shaped screens, which display the players on both sides and the selected heroes respectively.

Below the super large screen is the player's computer, and in front of each computer is a small screen to display the player's facial expressions.

In addition, Chen Mo also arranged a large holographic projection device in the center of the venue. This holographic projection device is larger than the one in the experience store, with a side length of 15 meters, and is directly in front of the stage.

The audience in the front row can clearly see all the details of the game through this holographic projection device, which can be said to complement each other with the large screen in the center. The audience in the back row can see a little blurry, but they can see the general situation clearly.

This holographic projection device is the largest model that can be bought at present, and the price is not cheap, more than 700,000. However, compared with the rent of the entire venue, it can only be regarded as a drizzle.

In order to better show the effect of this holographic projection device, Chen Mo also specially asked the "League of Legends" project team to develop some additional functions for the game.

For example, after a hero is selected, the hero's huge holographic projection and the player's holographic projection will appear on the holographic projection; after the lineup of both sides is selected, the hero lineup of both sides will be displayed in the form of holographic projection.

These related functions have been tested many times on the holographic projection of the experience store to ensure the performance effect.

In addition, Chen Mo also provided Yan Huang with a detailed competition process, including pre-match warm-up, B/P sessions, official matches, post-match interviews, etc., as well as some precautions for each link and the rules of the game.

The rules were so detailed that the person in charge of Yan Huang was a little confused.

Chen Mo will start ticket sales in September, one month in advance. Of course, relevant information will definitely be released sooner.

In addition, Chen Mo also used a dedicated separate server for this competition, which is equivalent to a local area network, avoiding the possibility of the "pulling the network line" in the previous life.

In terms of teams, the invited teams for the three servers of European server, American server, and Korean server have been determined. They are all determined according to the strength, reputation and combat power of the club. Basically, the more famous foreign clubs have been invited. , a total of twelve teams.

As for the domestic team, it is relatively troublesome, because although one or two of the ten domestic teams are strong, the other teams are still in the period of running-in and changing, so Chen Mo intends to use it before the World Championship. Yan Huang organized a trial in private to select the four teams that were shortlisted for the World Championship.

Of course, Chen Mo doesn't care about this trial. After all, Yan Huang is also a professional event organization team. This kind of small competition has been organized many times, and basically there will be no problems.

...

On the other hand, "Escape" is also being developed step by step.

Although there are some minor setbacks, they are not technical problems that are difficult to solve, but the performance needs to be polished more. Therefore, the current research and development progress is relatively smooth.

Chen Mo set the release date of "Escape" on September 23, which is a Sunday. Of course, all the work submitted for review is OK. Although there are some minor twists and turns, it is not a big problem.

Zhang Zhongxiang believes that this time "Escape" as a VR game has certain dangers, but it has a certain role in promoting and helping the progress of VR performance means, so "Escape" still passed the trial smoothly.

However, there is still some resistance within the Tourism Committee. Zhang Zhongxiang and Qiao Hua also reminded Chen Mo that after the release of "Escape", we should pay attention to the feedback of players. If the players are satisfied, then there is no problem in launching the sequel; If the voice of players boycotting is relatively high, then this work may be Chen Mo's last horror game.

Of course, Chen Mo is also aware of the risks brought by "Escape" this time, but he is confident in this game.

He wants to prove to everyone that although horror games are a relatively niche game type, they can also have classic works and will bring players a unique gaming experience.

Just like there are haunted houses in many big cities and amusement parks, horror games will also become a very important game genre to have a place in VR games.
