Chapter 690 [Put up this big flag, who else is there for me? 】

One of the executives couldn't help thinking and said: "Samsung is determined to stop WCG. It is estimated that the brand will be distributed to the competition organizations of each country. Without the World Finals, the cake of WCG is equivalent to giving up. .”

Fang Hongyuan looked at the big screen on the stage of the stadium, and after a while, he withdrew his eyes and said calmly: "From the effect of the scene of the finals, it's not that WCG is dead, or that users don't have needs, but that Samsung's strategic transformation is not enough. WCG is no longer needed."

Speaking of this, Fang Hong turned his head to look at the executive next to him: "Send someone to Korea, buy it directly from WCG or buy it with ICM as a whole."

The executive next to him nodded and said, "Understood."

Fang Hong thought for a while and then said: "If we enter the arena, the impact on the e-sports industry may be a historic change. First of all, all aspects and events of domestic e-sports are fighting on their own, and the situation of disunity will change."

"Only a world-class event like WCG can mobilize and connect all aspects, allowing them to temporarily put aside their barriers and confrontations, and make fists to promote the development of the e-sports industry."

"Who will be able to hold up the world-class banner of e-sports in the future? It must have a strong economy and executive power to relay globally, and it must also be tolerant and patient, and be able to accept e-sports big and small that don't like each other. Competitive projects and e-sports organizations, hold up this banner, who else but me?"

"After we take over, we will raise the professional level and specifications of WCG to a few more levels, and make it the highest honor achievement of all major e-sports events."

The executive next to him nodded again and replied, "Understood."

The WCG event project has been in business for 14 years, and it is actually doing very well. After taking over, it only needs to increase the budget and optimize the backdoor, without large-scale adjustments.

This is also due to the expansion of the gold master Samsung Group in the past years. From 2000 to 2006, Samsung developed rapidly against the background of the depreciation of the Korean won and the leadership of semiconductor and plasma display technologies. WCG was actually very beautiful in those years.

Since 2004, WCG has embarked on a world tour. The finals were held in San Francisco, in Singapore in 2005, and in Limonza in Italy in 2006. This is almost done according to the Olympic model.

However, since 2006, due to the rise of the Korean won and a series of company management shocks, Samsung’s electronic semiconductor, LCD, and mobile phone profits continued to decline, and fell to the bottom in 2009. That year, the WCG World Finals was originally intended to be placed in The capital of Huaguo.

The helpless devil didn't take a fancy to it, and didn't give any resources to support it.

It was also from 2009 that Samsung implemented a strategic transformation, focusing on LED-TV TVs and Galaxy-S series mobile phones. Samsung’s profitable departments, TV and mobile phones, are getting farther and farther away from e-sports. Its internal plans are finalized every year. Whether or not to make WCG larger at the end of the year is a constant quarrel, and it can be seen that cutting is also a matter of time.

This year was determined to cut it, and it happened to fulfill Fang Hong's wish. After the WGC was closed in the previous life, the vacant market was divided up by other players.

Now, Fang Hong’s decision to directly win WCG is tantamount to occupying the largest market share and the most influential event brand in e-sports. After all, Riot’s S-series event was very successful last year, but it did not reach its peak. period, and the fist company is still in awe of WCG, and the same DOTA2 event is not.

Right now, the WCG championship is the highest honor for an e-sports event in everyone's mind. Fang Hong wants to raise the event a few more levels, so that the WCG event will become the "World Cup" and "Olympic Games" in e-sports, and become the palace of e-sports events Super honor, carrying the world-class banner of e-sports.

If we keep this momentum, the influence of other events will never be able to overwhelm WCG.

At the end, Fang Hong turned around and said, "Let's go to the World of Warcraft competition venue."

After speaking, he turned around and left, and everyone else followed, and soon disappeared in the League of Legends competition venue.

The arena staff next to him looked stunned and murmured in shock: "Good guy, Waldmar, what have I heard? WCG is going to change? E-sports is going to change?"

Looking at the direction where Fang Hong and the others disappeared, he couldn't help but wonder: "What is the origin of that person? The rich second generation of a certain giant group? No, ordinary rich second generations don't have that kind of aura. What kind of boss is it... "

After a while, his colleague came over, and he immediately gossiped with him about what he had heard.

However, the colleague didn't believe it at all. No matter how swearing he was, the colleague just didn't believe what he said when he was a little Karami.

……

On the other side, Fang Hong came to the venue of Warcraft 3.

There are also crowds of people here, the popularity of the scene is very hot, and the atmosphere of the scene is very good. It is completely impossible to see that WCG is about to decline.

After a while, one of the accompanying bodyguards handed Fang Hong a STAR4 smartphone. He planned to take a few photos of the scene, and several accompanying security personnel in casual clothes stood aside in twos and threes as passers-by.

At this moment, Fang Hong took two photos, and then changed the angle to prepare to take another one.

But at this moment, a woman on the left side in front of him immediately walked towards him when she saw Fang Hong. Whether this woman is considered a beauty is at the middle level at most. She came to Fang Hong and asked with a bad expression: "You Are you secretly filming me?"

The accompanying bodyguards had already noticed the woman when she approached Fang Hong, and one of the bodyguards also went towards Fang Hong immediately.

At the same time, Fang Hong was also taken aback for a moment. It is common to be approached by beautiful women when he is out of the house. This is the first time he has encountered such a situation.

But Fang Hong realized something was wrong in an instant. Logically speaking, his appearance and temperament did not look like the kind of low-level vulnerable group that was easy to bully.

Is this woman missing a root string in her brain, or did it on purpose, or has another purpose.

All of these are possible, and Fang Hong is also careful.

It was slow, but it was fast. The accompanying bodyguards were about to come up and pull the woman away, but Fang Hong immediately raised his hand without saying a word. Seeing this, several bodyguards stopped and stared at the woman.

At this time, the woman also noticed this scene. She looked at the bodyguards, but she didn't realize that they were Fang Hong's security personnel, because the bodyguards accompanying this trip were all wearing ordinary clothes , try to dress like a passer-by, and look like Fang Hong is a companion and friend, and most people can't tell.

The woman held a mobile phone in her right hand and stuck it in front of her. The mobile phone secretly turned on the video and the camera on the back was facing Fang Hong and others. She scolded savagely: "Don't think I'm afraid of you because you are so many. ..."

Fang Hong said in an easy-going tone: "Girl, I was filming the scene, and I didn't secretly shoot you."

But the woman said relentlessly: "Whether you took a picture or not is empty talk, open your photo album and let me see if you took a picture or not!"

The two executives from Qunxing Capital who were accompanying them were taken aback for a moment, and they looked at the woman with strange expressions in silence. The woman hadn't realized who she was.

Fang Hong could completely ignore that woman, but his thoughts were running fast at the moment. He suspected that there might be a pusher behind this woman targeting him, but it was just a guess and he couldn't be sure.

There was nothing in the phone that took the photo, and it was not Fang Hong's personal phone, so he simply opened the photo album and showed it to the woman, fulfilling her wish, and wanted to see what she would do next.

After a while, the woman was stunned after looking at the photo album.

Three pictures of the scene were taken, but she was not in them.

Why not?
After a while, the woman said bluntly and confidently: "Be careful, don't secretly take pictures of others."

Fang Hong replied calmly: "Girl, first of all, I didn't take pictures of you, and secondly, even if I did, everyone has the right to take pictures in public. Secretly installing a camera in a secret room, locker room, etc. at home is a sneak shot."

"I used my mobile phone to shoot publicly in this public place. First of all, it is not a sneak shot. It just means that if the content of my film involves some personal information, it cannot be said to be private, because you appear in public, which is public information. , Even if I publish it, as long as it is not for profit, it is not an infringement of personal portrait rights or privacy rights, at most it is a news event, if you follow your logic, it is illegal for reporters to shoot in public.”

The woman had no way to refute Fang Hong's remarks, so she chose to avoid and left in a hurry.

At this time, an executive next to him approached and whispered: "Mr. Fang..."

Fang Hong glanced at the woman who was going away and said indifferently: "Check that woman, I want to know what is the motive for her behavior, is it purely savage and delusion of persecution, or is there a pusher behind the scenes deliberately doing it?" .”

The executive nodded in response: "Understood."

If it's the former, Fang Hong will naturally not care about her, but if it's the latter, it's another matter.

After the episode, Fang Hong ignored the woman, took a few photos at the venue of Warcraft 3, and then moved to other e-sports venues for a walk. After wandering around the convention center for about forty minutes then leave.

In the afternoon, Fang Hong finished his trip. Just as he entered the airport to take a private jet back to Xincheng, Xu Jingren, who was in charge of Quantum Beat, called him: "Boss, what's the situation? Why are you being linked to WeChat?" The blog was raped by the Internet, saying that you attempted to secretly take pictures..."

Fang Hong was taken aback: "Huh? Internet violence?"

Xu Jingren on the other end of the phone said: "Yes, I just noticed it too, I just came here to ask what's going on."

Xu Jingren didn't believe it at all, what was his identity as the boss?
Fang Hongyan replied concisely: "Yes, I see."

Xu Jingren immediately said: "I'll go to limit the flow to lower the heat right away."

Fang Hong immediately denied: "No, if there is a behind-the-scenes pusher, it will become a target instead and let the bullet fly for a while."

After hanging up the phone, Fang Hong logged on to Weibo to check it out, and it was indeed posted on the Internet, and the popularity was not small.
