The sword of online games runs on mountains and rivers

Chapter 54 The sky has changed!
Donghai City, in an elegant villa in the suburbs.

All the members of the Glorious E-sports Club, no matter what branch they used to be, or coaches and analysts, except Aunt Cleaner and Aunt Cook, who were not present, all gathered in the villa of the boss Li Baiqing for a meeting.

This meeting is very important.

Li Baiqing hadn't come back yet, many team members from different branches sat on the super soft sofa customized by the boss and discussed with each other.

"Suddenly called everyone here, what does the boss want to do?" asked a young man with glasses full of pimples.

Qian recalled that during this period of time, he had been staying in the boss's villa to play games. He was regarded as half the owner of the villa, so when the boss didn't come back, he was responsible for entertaining colleagues from different branches.

To this question, Qian Yi answered after pondering for a moment: "Have you read the news this afternoon?"

"What news?"

"We are exhausted from training, so we don't have time to watch the news. You should hurry up, Qian Yi!"

"I guess it has something to do with "Heavenly Knife"!"

Some analysts had already guessed the truth and explained: "Isn't there a piece of news about the Polaris Group in the afternoon, saying that the stock has soared by 50.00%, and the market value has exceeded one trillion..."

"What does it matter to us that his Polaris stock has risen?" Someone was very puzzled.

They didn't buy Polaris' stock, so does it have anything to do with them whether it goes up or not?Could it be that the boss, Li Baiqing, bought the stock and made a lot of money after it went up so much that he decided to increase the investment of each branch?

Don't e-sports geeks care about the news?

Qian Yi despises these colleagues, even he knows what this news means, and these people actually ask what it has to do with them.

How stupid!

If you think about it, you will understand that Polaris Group is an electronic entertainment company, and its main business is virtual projects that are currently in full swing.

Why was Polaris known as the "God Pit" company half a year ago?It's not because the company has invested heavily in research and development, and has not produced a project for several years, and its stocks have been losing money continuously.

But in just half a year, with the birth of "Sword of Heaven", Polaris jumped from a small shrimp with a market value of tens of billions to a super giant crocodile with a market value of trillions overnight. Doesn't anyone understand the reason for this?
The sky has changed!

The reason why Polaris stock rose so fiercely this time is related to an announcement they made.

According to the announcement, more than 1000 million pieces of "Tiandao" virtual devices have been sold, and more than 3000 million customer orders have not been delivered.

It's only been a few days?

In just two days, 1000 million sets of virtual devices were sold!There are 3000 million reservations!This is horrible!

As long as the Polaris Group's production capacity increases, they can fulfill their previous promise in minutes: "Let every family have a virtual world login device!"

This is not only a success for Polaris Group, but also a major reshuffle for the global game industry.

Virtual online games have been born for many years, but their popularity has been hindered by expensive equipment.

Therefore, traditional mouse and keyboard e-sports can survive based on the needs of the public.

But seeing that Polaris is about to complete the feat of popularizing virtual login devices, traditional e-sports events have been pushed to the brink of life and death.

Many long-term professional players, including coaching analysts, fell silent when they heard the news.

Until Li Baiqing, dressed in a suit, walked into the room in a hurry.

"Is everyone here?"

Li Bai cleaned up the crowd, and after learning that no one was absent, he sat at the head of the conference table, spread out a document he carried with him, and asked with a pen, "Someone tell me, there are currently a total of How many branches are there?"

"Boss, there are 9 branches in total!"

Li Baiqing nodded: "Okay, nine divisions, how many players, coaches and analysts?"

"38 people!"

Li Baiqing's eyes were filled with speechlessness: "This number... means that many of our branches are in the situation of two or three cats, right?"

The general manager of the club sitting on his right nodded: "Yes, many divisions do not choose to renew their contracts because the players' contracts expire. There are no coaching analysts at all.”

"Then I understand!"

Li Baiqing took a pen to write down the situation on the paper, then put the pen down, put his hands on his chin, and stared deeply at the 38 people in front of him.

"Everyone is aware of the club's situation. Next, I want to say something. Let everyone express their opinions."

"Nine branches! In the next month, all branches except the "Heavenly Knife" branch may be abolished, and all personnel will be filled into the Heavenly Knife branch."

"Ah!" Everyone was shocked.

Although many people were already mentally prepared, they were still surprised to hear that Li Baiqing was going to abolish so many branches.

"Why do this?"

A contestant from the "Conquest" division stood up and looked at Li Baiqing: "Boss! We conquered the division and won [-] championships for the club, [-] runner-ups, and countless championships! Why? We are going to be cut!"

If it weren't for Li Baiqing's calm expression in front of him, he would have wondered if his boss had been dropped.

The Glorious World Club is the number one club in the world in "Conquer". It has earned countless honors, and two showcases are filled with trophies.The sudden disbandment of such a meritorious branch is really hard for him to accept.

Li Baiqing took a look at him and recognized that he was a veteran of the Conquer Division who had played in the club for eight years and had earned countless honors for the club.With such a subordinate, he couldn't say anything serious, so he had to signal him to sit down first.

"you listen to me!"

Li Baiqing knocked on the table: "I know it's hard for you to accept, but in fact I don't want to do that either."

"Then why..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Baiqing interrupted: "But you and I both know that this game is already dead. No matter how many honors there are, that is the past. We can't live in the past, we have to look forward!"

Li Baiqing asked the general manager beside him to distribute a document to everyone.

"Have you seen the data above?"

Li Baiqing spread his hands at everyone bitterly: "The virtual era for all is here! This time it's really here! We have no choice!"

In the document, a questionnaire on the activity of the most popular games on the market is eye-catching.

Except for "Heaven Knife" whose data exploded exponentially, other games, no matter if they were traditional games or virtual online games with more gimmicks than reality, all GG!

Everyone held this flimsy data, feeling extremely heavy.

"Do you know what happened to a game I played before?"

Li Baiqing laughed at himself: "I spent 50 yuan to build the magic weapon, but now players can give it away as long as they log in, and they can give away several pieces."

"But it's no use, times have changed..."
