Chapter 388: Chapter 138: Great Victory! The First Esports Event Ends Perfectly!_8

From Ordinary Attack, charging up, to Waving Swords, these three basic forms of gaming confrontation, a fourth form was painfully torn out!

The flanking confrontation!

Even when it came to the three-player teams, Korean players did not gain much advantage.

Though they had teammates as cover, which brought a bit of uncertainty.

But under the fierce competition of 32 teams, their advantage was not significant.

Out of five Korean teams, only one made it to a mid-tier level in the end.

The remaining four were still at the bottom.

The final two days of the competition ended amidst intense clashes.

New tactics, hidden until the very last moment, continuously emerged.

Along with various incredible clutch comebacks from the brink of defeat.

The audience was constantly thrilled! All were thoroughly satisfied!

Even many Korean netizens who watched the competition all the way through quietly began to change their minds.

"I feel... we’ve always underestimated Huaxia players."

"Not to mention anything else, but just the quality of this final, the sophisticated skills demonstrated by these Huaxia players, I’ve really been screaming the whole time I was watching."

"It’s hard to imagine that these weapons seem to change their way of attack in their hands, is this the martial arts spirit engraved in the bones of Huaxia people? So cool!"

Of course, apart from some praise, there were also many stubborn Korean players who refused to admit defeat and made snide comments.

"Heh, various moves not disclosed before the games, viciously used during the competition, that’s the Huaxia people for you."

But unlike the usual chorus of agreement, this time the high-level competition in "Eternity" deeply moved some people.

"Stop yelling, do you want to embarrass yourself further? You lost, you lost, go and improve your skills, and then talk big after you bring the championship back next year! Kid."

"Fuck! The way you’re stubbornly defending makes me feel pity for you, don’t say you’re Korean when you go out!"

The greatest recognition often comes from your opponent.

Clearly, this peak of gaming skill had conquered some of the Korean players who had held prejudices before the competition.

And then it came to the awarding ceremony.

A group of Huaxia young men, who displayed their brilliance throughout the competition, used their unique insights and tactics to impart to all spectators what electronic sports are all about!

Soon, the chief designer and lead gamer Ke Jin, holding a pure gold Sky Dragon Trophy, took the stage to present the young players with their honors.

Additionally, the mayor of Jianglin City, Tao Antai, was invited to attend the award ceremony.

He held a huge check for the 1.5 million yuan individual champion in the solo division and a check for 3 million yuan for the champion team in the three-player division, going on stage twice to present the awards to the players.

After the group photo, Tao Antai also stood with a ruddy face, holding the microphone and said with a vibrant laugh.

He announced something that even Ke Jin found unexpected.

"Honestly, in these short 15 days, I have witnessed a miracle!"

"Before this, I had never imagined that a game, and a group of young guys playing it, could achieve such great success and provoke such an intense online response!"

"The number of online viewers this time almost reached an unprecedented live streaming peak in the entire history of Jianglin, with a peak viewership nearing 6 million people! This number is even the total daily viewership of Jianglin Television Station!"

"Not only that, it has driven part of the GDP growth in Jianglin City! This completely exceeded my expectations."

"During the half-month period of the competition, a large number of visitors from all over the country and even from abroad gathered here, they cheered together, shouted together, and together witnessed the birth of this miracle!"

"This miracle known as electronic sports, is a miracle born on the land of Jianglin, it is a miracle created by the leading gamer, and even more, it is the miracle created by the countless young generations who love gaming!"

"This shows that the allure of games has slowly taken root among the younger generation!"

"Given that, let’s ensure it grows even more vigorously!"

"On this perfect closing day, I hereby announce that our Jianglin City will develop towards the cultural direction of being a Game City! We will create more stages suitable for watching competitions! We will organize more gaming expositions! And we will offer more policy incentives to gaming companies established locally in Jianglin! On behalf of our Jianglin City, I sincerely invite all major gaming companies to come to Jianglin to host esports events!"

"In the days to come, let us join hands, aiming for the goal of becoming an esports city, to craft a more suitable environment for the gaming industry to thrive!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue and the whole internet were shaken!!

In the official live streams across various platforms, the screen was a frenzy of rolling comments!

"Fuck?? What did I just hear??"

"Game City? Specifically crafted for esports? A ground more suitable for the gaming industry to develop? Damn! As a gamer, why do I feel like I’m about to soar to the heavens!"

"It’s like a dream come true!"

"Now I have no choice but to move to Jianglin City overnight! /Sly"

"No joke, no joke indeed, Jianglin has an excellent location, with the Yangtze River running through it, a land of plenty, truly habitable, worth considering!"

"If what Mayor Tao says is true, then I’m a bit excited to see what this place will look like in three years! For a gamer, a city developing towards the gaming industry—I can’t even imagine how fun it will be! It’s truly a Fairyland!"

"Fairyland? The Jerusalem of the East!"

"Looking forward to the day it becomes Cyberpunk City!"

"Aren’t you going to thank the top player? Without Baby Ke, this pioneer of esports and the ’God’s Hand’, we’d all just be lowly gamers!"

No wonder the netizens were blowing up.

Before this, not just in the whole Huaxia Nation,

but looking across the entire Blue Star, such a policy was unprecedented!

And making such a policy was obviously not something that the Jianglin Government decided on a whim.

Especially being able to stand on this stage, in front of tens of thousands of spectators, further facing countless netizens, and loudly declaring it.

This shows that the gaming industry’s development has changed dramatically! It has grown deep into people’s hearts!

And Jianglin City has set its sights on this promising industry, wanting to be a step ahead in firmly grasping it.

After all, before this, numerous cities in Huaxia Nation developed policies aimed toward becoming cities renowned for internet celebrities, tourism, and even barbecue.

And these have indeed had great effects, with GDP continuously reaching new heights.

Previously, one wouldn’t dare to say much about the gaming industry, since these were virtual values after all.

But now,

with the top player pioneering this esports event,

under the frantic expansion pace of "Eternity" and the new blue ocean carved out by esports,

it’s an awe-inspiring influence that everyone can witness!

It also provides a nearly perfect template for all the game manufacturers who are watching.

Once the policies are implemented, capital will sweep in.

It will truly be able to crazily drive the local tourism industry chain and even attract a lot of professional talent to settle here!

If before, one could say that the gaming industry had everything ready except for the right opportunity,

then now, this esports wind will blow directly in our faces until a multitude of flowers bloom!
