Chapter 328 The End of WCG

After a simple lunch, Zhang Lexing continued to chat with several screenwriters about the requirements of the script. By the time they were sent away, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon. knocking.

"Boss, Mr. Chen from Fengyun Interactive is here." Wang Mengyao walked over, leaned down and whispered in Zhang Lexing's ear.

"Well," Zhang Lexing waved his hand and said, "Let her in."

"Yes, boss." After speaking, Wang Mengyao straightened up and came to the door of the reception room, and opened the door with her hand. Chen Jingyi walked in and nodded to her, then came to stand by the sofa.

Chen Jingyi put her hands together in front of her body, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Boss, I'm sorry, I will trouble you again later."

Zhang Lexing waved to Chen Jingyi, motioning her to sit on the sofa: "Sit down and talk, let's have some tea first."

"Don't bother me, I'll go check it later." Chen Jingyi shook her head with a tired smile on her face: "Boss, I just came to tell you."

"It's okay, I'll be there then. It starts at 02:30, right?"

"Yes, boss. If there is nothing else to do, please, I will go to work first."

"You go first!" Zhang Lexing waved his hand.

Chen Jingyi turned around and left, Zhang Lexing thought about it, and called Wang Mengyao over again: "Mengyao, are you ready for the things you will use later?"

"Hmm..." Wang Mengyao thought for a while, and then replied, "It's ready. I went to see it in the morning. It's not bad, it looks very delicate, and the words on it are very clear."

Zhang Lexing heaved a sigh of relief. He will present awards to the champions of the WCG global finals in each event this afternoon. As for the runner-up, there will be another award presenter in charge of him, so he doesn't have to worry about it anymore.However, in order to attract more attention and enhance the influence of WCG by the way, this awarding session should not be too sloppy. According to Zhang Lexing's idea, since it is planned to be an Olympic Games in the game industry, the gold, silver and bronze medals of the winners must not be missing. , In addition, in order to enhance the visual impact, the championship bonus also needs to be made a super-large check model. These are part of the preparation work that he cares about. As for the other parts, Chen Jingyi has already arranged in advance, and all he has to do is when the time comes. Just downstairs.

……

The time came to 02:30 in the afternoon, and Zhang Lexing was already in the square in front of the game museum. He was standing in the special lounge on the side of the stage, watching the hosts Lin Musen, Yan Yuxin, Duan Xuan, etc. Lu Qiuya was summarizing the WCG competitions these days, and soon their topic turned to the awards.

"Next, today's mysterious guest is invited to present today's first award..." Accompanied by Lu Qiuya's introduction, there was a burst of drumbeats from the speakers, which whetted the appetite of the audience at the scene and in front of the TV.At this time, Zhang Lexing had already come to the lift platform below the stage from the dedicated passage, and the lift platform rose as soon as the drum beat stopped.

"Today's guest is... Mr. Zhang Lexing, the chairman of the WCG Organizing Committee!" Lin Musen took over what Lu Qiuya had left to say, and introduced in a passionate tone.

At the same time, Zhang Lexing happened to appear on the stage, and many people in the audience and in front of the TV could not help but let out a low cry. It was no different than five years ago. With the continuous reports from various media including portal websites, almost no one knew about it. Who is this man on stage?Before the opening of WCG, although Zhang Lexing's name was clearly written on the post of president, and even accompanied by a photo, but in the eyes of most people, this is just a name, the world's richest man must be very busy, Then there is time for this pastime. After the opening of WCG, as expected by many people, the chairman did not appear at the opening ceremony, and it was even more so during the subsequent competitions, but unexpectedly he jumped out at the final awards ceremony, This is too unexpected for some people.

Some people have always been displeased with such things as games. In their opinion, playing with things can only be depressing. It is best for the public not to do other boring things besides study and work, especially minors.In the eyes of these people, the previous electronic games (generally referring to arcade machines, Nintendo red and white machines) and the current computer games are all "electronic (hero) (heroin)" aimed at the flowers of the motherland, and they are big poisonous weeds that harm the next generation. , must be resolutely and completely wiped out, but the media that grasps public opinion does not accept their views, at least few influential newspapers and magazines are willing to publish their articles critical of the game.

Unexpectedly, since last year, the game has become more and more serious. There are still profit-seeking companies using bonuses to lure more people to play games. What kind of global competition will be held? Foreign children, so some people can’t sit still, they are going to learn more about how this so-called WCG competition is operated, and then find an opportunity to expose its harmful nature, but the admission ticket is not so easy to get, fortunately, there is WCG on the TV station The live broadcast, so that they will not be blinded.

Mr. the richest man in the world who is the nominal president has never shown up, which made some people have some thoughts in their minds. They think that maybe this can also be used as a reason to criticize the game, such as "the evil nature of the game makes the richest man avoid it", "the richest man Stealth, WCG abandoned" is definitely enough to attract attention.But now that the other party has shown up, their small calculations can no longer be fought, but someone has not given up, because he feels that he has found a loophole in the WCG competition, and he believes that as long as he makes a move, he will be a big success. It's time for national and even world celebrities, and money and beauties will come naturally.

Zhang Lexing didn't know what some people in front of the TV were thinking. He was hanging the gold medals presented by Miss Manners on the necks of the members of the STK team who won the championship of "Special War Heroes" one by one. A mock check of US$6 was stuffed into the captain of the STK team. At this time, the media in the audience had to take a few more photos, and the TV broadcast also focused on the numbers on the mock check, all for the promotion of WCG. race.

Immediately afterwards, other award-presenting guests appeared on the stage. With the cooperation of the hostesses, medals and bonuses were awarded to the runner-up and third-runners of "Special Warriors". Of course, the treatment is still worse than that of the champion.After awarding the "Special Warriors" project, the next project is "Three Kingdoms 3", and the contestants of "Special Warriors" who have just received the awards have already hurried off the stage. They still have an important task to do. Done, you need to hurry up and get ready.

When hanging the gold medal on the neck of the Zonghengtianxia team member who won the "Three Kingdoms 3" project championship, and holding the simulated check of the 6 US dollars bonus together with the Zonghengtianxia team captain Hu Binguo, Zhang Lexing felt that his mood was obviously stronger than before. It was much more comfortable, and even the smile on his face was a little more sincere. This may be because the championship fell into the hands of the Chinese.

……

After awarding the awards for the "Three Kingdoms 3" project, Zhang Lexing returned to the upstairs reception room to rest. Other award presenters and hostesses also left. The stage was immediately cleared, and the huge projection screen was put down again. Not long after The familiar game screen of "Special War Heroes" appeared on the screen.

Lu Ze sat in the audience area and focused on the projection screen on the stage. Speaking of which, he was quite pitiful. He planned to watch the WCG live game early on, and even found a job as a BJ for this purpose. Unexpectedly But he got stuck and missed the previous WCG game. After he worked overtime to complete the test work, it was already the night of August 8th. Fortunately, Xu Wenming, the boss of the department, saw him pitifully and gave him a WCG ticket.

Finally, I was able to watch the WCG game live. Lu Ze, who watched the final of "StarCraft" on TV at night, was always in a state of excitement. When he woke up, the unfortunate child had overslept.In a hurry, Lu Ze rushed out the door without even taking time to eat breakfast. He thought he would have a chance to watch the next two finals, but he encountered a traffic jam again. After he finally moved to the Times Fashion Building, The game is coming to an end, and it's over before he can understand anything.

Fortunately, Lu Ze heard good news. It is said that there will be an exhibition match in the afternoon. Although it is not an official match, it can still be regarded as a live event. In this case, he can only make do with it.After hastily eating lunch, in order not to have any accidents, Lu Ze came to the audience area early and sat down, waiting to watch the exhibition game in the afternoon.Waiting left and right, waiting until he was almost sitting like a statue, at three o'clock in the afternoon, a picture finally appeared on the projection screen on the stage.

A few lines of big characters ""Special War Heroes" exhibition match, China Star United vs. World Star United" flashed by, and accompanied by dynamic music, the exhibition match officially started.Different from the official 5vs5 competition, in order to pursue entertainment, the "Special Warriors" exhibition game uses a larger-scale map and a new patch program. The number of participants is as many as 48, and some combat vehicles have been added ( Including motorized rubber boats, jeeps, trucks, and even armored personnel carriers), the weapons used have also increased (in addition to conventional pistols, submachine guns, assault rifles, light and heavy machine guns, sniper rifles, etc., powerful rocket launchers and Special weapons such as anti-materiel sniper rifles that are difficult to move).

In order to fully demonstrate the large-scale battle of 24vs24 people, two projection screens were temporarily installed on the stage, and a projector was added to display the battle from the perspectives of the Chinese Star United and the World Star United at the same time. On the large-screen TV, a dynamic picture of the situation of the two sides in the battle is displayed at any time.

……

Xu Yan is the temporary commander of the Chinese Star United. After two hours of training with the BOT program in the morning, everyone has established a certain tacit understanding, so that they will not be blinded when they fight.In the first game, the China Star Alliance belongs to the defensive side. They need to stick to the factory in the middle of the map for 10 minutes or be able to wipe out the invading enemies.

As soon as the map was opened, Xu Yan came up with a defensive plan in a short time. There was a wide entrance area to the east of the factory, a pier to the south, barbed wire to the west, and a pier to the north.The entrance area in the east has good defensive positions and defensive weapons, and there are two strong defensive towers (installed with heavy machine guns) in the west. Xu Yan believes that there is no need to invest too much troops in defense, and the focus should be on the north and south piers. A place where it is easy to be attacked by the opponent.

Xu Yan arranged four people on the east side, two people on the west side, and a complete defense team on the north and south docks respectively. Two snipers occupied the top floor of the factory building, and two rocket launchers stayed in the central area, ready to support the enemy at any time. In the direction of the army's attack, the last two people drove the armored vehicles in the factory as a reserve team as a mobile force.

As soon as the deployment of troops was adjusted, the battle started, but slightly beyond Xu Yan's expectations, the World Star Alliance chose the main attack direction at the main entrance of the factory.Under the cover of an armored vehicle, several figures appeared about three to four hundred meters away from the entrance, and bullets hit the gate or the fortifications near the entrance from time to time.

"At three o'clock on the map, there is an armored personnel carrier, four people, two M16A4 assault rifles, one M60E4 general-purpose machine gun, and one person with an unknown weapon...The enemy's offensive firepower is relatively fierce, and heavy fire support is needed..."Entrance The observation post at the office reported the situation through the headset.

Now that the enemy has played the first card, Xu Yan knows that this must be the opponent's probing attack, otherwise there will not be only five people (one person is needed to drive the armored personnel carrier), but with the fortifications at the door, if It can certainly be blocked without an armored personnel carrier.

"Mobile team, send a bazooka man to the entrance, look for an opportunity to destroy the opponent's armored vehicle...Juniper, at the three o'clock direction on the map, destroy the M60E4 general-purpose machine gun...Vm is on standby, ready to support other directions...Defense team at the entrance Start defensive shooting, and the other team members take their positions, and the observation post pays attention to the surrounding movement..." Xu Yan gave instructions through the headset, and slightly adjusted the defensive deployment.

……

Lu Ze, who was sitting in the audience area, felt like he was watching a war movie. Whether it was the defensive side of the Chinese Star Alliance or the offensive side of the World Star Alliance, both sides were constantly adjusting their deployment. The offensive side tries to find out the weak areas of the opponent's defense, while the defensive side tries to find out the main attack direction of the opponent.For a while, the Chinese Star Alliance used its superior firepower to repel the attacking small troops of the World Star Alliance, and for a while, the World Star Alliance used motorized rubber boats to attack the southern pier, with rough-skinned armored vehicles and heavy-duty trucks. , The extremely fast jeeps also appeared on the stage one after another, each showing their skills in this offensive and defensive battle.

Perhaps because of the lack of pressure to achieve results, the Chinese All-Star United played more excitingly and freely than in the main game, while the World All-Star United, although stronger, was not skilled enough in terms of coordination.For example, in the South Wharf assault, seeing that the two teams of the World Star United were about to go ashore, they were suppressed by a MiniGun from "MIKK", and "Cyberarena" and others used assault rifles on the side Continuously shooting, the two teams of the World Star United, who had jumped off the motorized rubber boat, were blocked near the pier and couldn't move an inch.What's even more amazing is that the anti-material sniper rifle of "Vm" actually blows up the opponent's jeep rushing into the factory with one shot, which makes the troops of the World Star United Team stagnate, and is immediately killed by the Chinese Star League. The reinforcements from the army fled in embarrassment.

The result of the first game ended with the Chinese Star United team successfully persisting for 10 minutes. The World Star United team temporarily fell behind 0-1.In the second game, the two sides switched positions, the Chinese star team attacked, and the world star team became the defensive side.Xu Yan commanded the teams to attack separately. As soon as they came into contact with each other, they immediately tasted what the World Star Alliance felt in the previous game. The whole factory was like a huge hedgehog, which made it impossible to attack for a while.

The direct attack failed, so Xu Yan adjusted his offensive strategy, using the method of attacking east and west to distract the main defensive force of the World Star United, and then concentrated his firepower to blow up the barbed wire fence on the west side and rush in. Unfortunately, he encountered strong resistance in front of the opponent's defensive firepower. , failed to enter the core area of ​​the factory before the end of the three 10-minute countdown.In the end, the two sides drew 1-1, and the Chinese Star United also swept away the shadow of losing the main game because they had a slight upper hand, so both sides are happy.

As soon as the exhibition game was over, the awards for the follow-up projects began again, and Lu Ze hadn't been freed from the fierce battle for a while, and his mind was full of images of guns coming and going on the curtain.Although he was very emotional, he was certain of one thing. It was impossible for him to enter the WCG Global Finals at his level. It seemed that he would still be a promising career as a game tester in the future. The new stuff should be left to those who are more talented to play. It is better for him to be a good audience.
