Chapter 34: The Battle of the Three Kingdoms!
Li's Voice was indeed losing money.
It was mainly because of the rise of Infinity Station that the audience of Beautiful Voice was cut off. Their advertising companies were greatly reduced, and all of them were transferred to Infinity Station.
Three years ago, Li's Voice started to change. First, they changed their black and white television to color.
However, it was still not enough.
In terms of content output and quality, it was far inferior to Infinity TV.
The constant burning of money without any returns made the Eagle Country's capital very anxious. Jiang Muyan was naturally very sensitive to this.
Naturally, it was not a problem for him to request for shares.
If he joined this television station, he would have a greater say in the future.
Jiang Muyan had been with Lin Mu for more than half a year, so she was very clear about Lin Mu's strategy.
Gaming, technology, real estate, manufacturing, as well as his own voice.
From the moment Lin Mu started targeting Ming Pao, Jiang Muyan had more or less known about Lin Mu's strategic intentions. Now, Jiang Muyan had a better understanding.
Therefore, Jiang Muyan boldly proposed the idea of investing.
One had to admit that warriors were like dogs and horses, driven by people. I'm lucky to have met a good general and Jiang Muyan. Lin Mu will definitely have another good general under him.
Although he wanted to buy Li, Lin Mu still let Jiang Muyan handle this matter.
He also believed that Jiang Muyan would not let him down.
During this period of time, Lin Mu had put all his energy into promoting the King of Fighters.
Teams of various sizes began to appear in Xiangjiang City, Bay Area, Japan, Southeast Asia, Singapore, and Casino City.
The newspapers had already started to spread the news.
Lin Mu needed to make preparations on his side, and he also needed to plan with Paradise Island.
Paradise Island had a good relationship with Japan, so it was quite easy to form a team. If they wanted to broadcast it on TV, they had already obtained the authorization.
Lin Mu was envious.
With his size, he still could not go against Paradise Island.
Then, the Bugle Horn Daily solemnly announced the first King of Fighters S Competition.
The release of the King of Fighters 1970 was a joint effort between Paradise Island Gaming Company and Hong Meng Gaming Company in Xiangjiang to organize the first World King of Fighters E-Sports Competition.
After several months of development and promotion, the arcade game, King of Fighters, had a large fan base in the entire Asian region. It could be said to be the No.1 fighting game.
The competition was mainly divided into regions: Southeast Asia, Japan, and the South. These countries were all independent regions. Due to the small population of Singapore, it was incorporated into the Southeast Asia-Singapore region. Casino City, Xiangjiang, and Bay were collectively called the China region.
Each division had a budget competition, semi-finals, and finals. In the end, there were three winners (some small countries only had two places). The three winners were eligible to participate in the world finals. The first finals were held in Tokyo.
The top three winners of each division would receive prizes ranging from 5000, 2000, and 1000 USD. The highest prize for the finals was as high as 100,000 USD.
This could be considered a huge move by Lin Mu. It was very difficult to hold an international competition, especially e-sports, which was at the level of creating a world.
It was extremely troublesome in terms of publicity, sponsorship, selection, supervision, competition, and other aspects.
However, both Lin Mu and Paradise Island were determined to expand. At the very least, they had to expand and become stronger in the Asian region. Even so, the preparatory work required in the early stages was extremely troublesome.
He needed someone to cooperate.
Fortunately, the King of Fighters was really popular. In addition, arcade games began to become popular in Southeast Asia, Japan, and Taiwan.
Lin Mu had taken out a lot of money, so he attracted the attention of many people.
Right now, he needed to expand the Fist Emperor's influence and fame.
It would be best if he could promote the arcade game to Europe and the United States.
Wanwan, Baobei County, a certain arcade.
A thin teenager carrying a school bag walked in. The disgust that filled the room made him feel a little uncomfortable, but he still frowned and endured it.
The few King of Fighters arcade machines were already filled with people. When they saw the thin youth coming over, everyone made way for him.
A yellow-haired hooligan waved at him and said,"Ah Quan, come here quickly. I learned another move yesterday.”
The hooligan put in the coin again and said," Same rules. Best of five. You're not allowed to press the heavy punch button.”
"No problem!"
The thin teenager put down his bag and smiled brightly. His family wasn't rich, and his pocket money wasn't enough for him to enter the arcade every day. However, it didn't matter. He was born to be an expert in this fighting game.
Basically, they were all gambling with game coins.
He never failed.
There were countless people who had made bets with him, but in the end, there was nothing he could do.
He Quan licked his lips. Once he entered the state of gaming, the subservience on his body seemed to have completely disappeared.
The yellow-haired hooligan was quickly defeated.
"Fuck!" The yellow-haired guy cursed, but his expression was extremely ugly. However, he still kept his promise and threw a handful of game coins to He Quan.
He Quan took a deep breath, but he felt a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart.
"Young man, I see that your talent is not bad. Do you want to join my team and play games every day in the future?”At this moment, the boss of the arcade came out to speak.
This boss had been staring at He Quan for a long time.
"Me? Join the team?" A puzzled expression appeared on He Quan's face."What team?"
"Here, look!" The boss chuckled, took out a poster, and pasted it on the wall.
Someone read,"The first World King of Fighters e-sports competition has started. All participants can register at the local registration point with their ID card…The top 8 contestants in Wanwan will qualify for the finals in the Huaxia division. They will travel to Xiangjiang to participate in the finals. They will reimburse their flight tickets and accommodation. The champion of the division will receive a prize of 5000 US dollars…The top three contestants in the Huaxia division will qualify for the world finals…"
"Wow, the finals will be held in Tokyo, Japan. The champion will be rewarded with 100,000 US dollars.”
"100,000 US dollars, isn't that a few million Taiwan dollars?”
"Ah Quan is so powerful, hurry up and register.”
The boss smiled and continued,""This team has a total of five people. Best of five. After winning, the club will deduct half of the prize money and you guys will split the rest equally!”
