Bai Qing could tell that Li Yang was impressive.
But nobody helped Li Yang win last night, which ans even with such a big skill gap, one person can’t win so many gas alone.
If anyone can help Li Yang win a chicken dinner in such a short ti, they must be a born FPS prodigy.
She didn’t say whether to sign one or three; she just said a million.
Li Yang definitely wanted to make this ga successful, and she had every reason to form a team. Buying three highly talented players for a million is no problem at all.
Moreover, she didn’t specify whether to sign for one year, three years, or five years, leaving a lot of room for flexibility.
In fact, the situation escalated quickly last night. She originally thought it would take several rounds before soone would ntion it in the chat since nobody wants more competition.
The unexpected result ans the topic was very strong.
At around ten o’clock, she received a ssage from Li Yang.
"I was really exhausted last night, sniped all the way until one in the afternoon, so I didn’t reply to you. By the way, Aurora Studio fed back so data to , and the number of simultaneous viewers almost reached fifty thousand at one point, all thanks to you."
Bai Qing: "Ah? Really?"
"Yes, really. But after I stopped streaming, there wasn’t much interest anymore."
Seeing Li Yang’s reply, Bai Qing imdiately said: "I just let it slip that whoever can help you win a chicken dinner, I’ll offer them a contract worth a million. How about that? More people should get into it after your stream ends, right?"
Li Yang: "??????"
Bai Qing really liked gas and had her own understanding of them.
She believed that for a ga to beco popular, it must have social and financial attributes.
She got into gaming because she was too bored in the United States and couldn’t blend into the student circles there; one could say she didn’t have any friends.
However... she believed Li Yang definitely understood gas better than she did.
In the Capital City, Li Yang fell into thought after reading Bai Qing’s ssage.
He really thought Bai Qing was just a bit jealous and didn’t want him to end the stream to accompany Jiang Banxia, inadvertently helping PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds create an atmosphere and increasing its notoriety.
Although there wasn’t much playing after his stream, he could continue streaming.
Each round was only five thousand bucks, way too cheap.
Promoting a ga often burns the most money, and he was prepared to spend two or three hundred million to promote it.
His own promotions were equivalent to hundred-thousand-level advertising fees, but Bai Qing’s trick was worth millions.
Especially that sentence Bai Qing just said, offering a million-dollar contract to whoever helped him win a chicken dinner, pushed this marketing to another level.
His expertise was marketing, and he knew that most marketing expenses go to invisible places.
Bai Qing’s approach was different; she spent all the money on visible things.
More entertaining and interactive than straightforward monetary rewards.
First, they sniped him, attracting millions or even tens of millions of spectators, and tens of thousands of participants.
Then, a million-dollar contract ensured those participants could keep honing their skills in the ga after he stopped streaming.
After all, that’s a million! Sothing ordinary people could never even dream of.
A single five-million-dollar lottery ticket has people flocking to it, let alone a more competitive million-dollar contract.
"Honey, were you just trying to keep from stopping the stream last night?"
He wanted to probe Bai Qing’s thoughts.
Bai Qing quickly replied: "Hmmm..."
"It doesn’t feel right. You clearly gave an excellent marketing idea."
"Hehe, that’s because you’re amazing, honey. I could never think so much. I only think, there are eighty-seven days left to see you."
"Be honest! Let’s discuss it properly. My ideas might not be right; give so insight."
"I honestly don’t know much about it..."
"Oh, then next ti I will just piggyback..."
"Oh, honey, I kinda miss you..."
...
Li Yang was truly surprised by Bai Qing’s thinking in this area.
He shared his operational strategy for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, planning to use professional competitions as a breakthrough point, offering a billion-yuan prize for the year.
A billion-yuan prize would definitely attract a lot of people.
The viewing experience of LoL is good, but PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds’ is even better, especially the world championship.
However, the ga’s threshold is too high; the dostic license didn’t pass, and rampant cheating prevented its peak from lasting, leaving the user base lacking.
They switched to video chatting, with him in the living room and Jiang Banxia busy in the study.
"What do you think about introducing a professional tournant before the end of the year? Although only half a year remains, so it can’t be a complete competition year, it could be a selection tournant with a high prize pool. Speak the truth, no evasions!"
Bai Qing imdiately got serious and whispered: "I feel like it’s not very good. Professional competitions are a derivative of the ga and can elevate the whole ga, but without a solid foundation, there’s not much benefit. Professional competitions have two main audiences, those who like to play but don’t have ti and those who used to like it but are nostalgic now... The forr eases their desire to play by watching the competition, and the latter cares more about sentint and honor. Umm... I’m just talking nonsense here..."
Li Yang smiled and asked: "If the ga goes overseas, should we find an agent or operate it ourselves?"
Bai Qing didn’t hesitate: "Of course, find an agent. Although the ga’s profit will be split more than half, the global ga market is mostly dostic. Earning dostic money is enough, while overseas money can just provide us emotional value."
