Create a great era of e-sports

"of course not."

After finishing one bowl, Mo Yu stopped his cup and held his chopsticks, but Huo Qi had another bowl, handed over his mobile phone, and said vaguely: "Take a look."

"What?"

Mo Yu was full of doubts and took the phone and took a look.

Above is a photo.

The content in the photo made Mo Yu's eyes jump.

"Application form? Olympics?"

"That's right."

Huo Qi raised his head, took out a tissue and wiped his mouth, then took the phone and said: "Since you and I reached cooperation, I have checked the Olympic system. You said you want e-sports to be included in the Olympics, then you know... Are there any conditions for a sport to enter the Olympics?"

Mo Yu shook his head.

Huo Qi held out three fingers: "Three hard requirements."

"First, the recognized international foundation; second, elite sports; third, the game of interests."

Mo Yu listened carefully: "Elaborate."

Huo Qi continued: "First of all, it is the recognized international basis. This is also the most basic and essential requirement for any sport to enter the Olympics. That is, if any sport wants to enter the Olympics, it must be in at least 75 countries and regions and four It is widely practiced among men in all continents and among women in at least 40 countries and regions and three continents, and sports events must also be widely practiced among men in at least 50 countries and regions and three continents and among women in 35 countries and regions and three continents. Only those who have developed in China and been included in the World Championships or Intercontinental Championships at least twice are eligible for selection.”

"To put it simply, e-sports is a big event, and GAG is a small event in e-sports. If e-sports wants to enter the Olympics, it must meet the above conditions."

"I don't know the specific data, but judging from the information I have found, neither e-sports nor GAG meet the requirements."

Mo Yu fell into thinking after hearing this.

Since he proposed and created e-sports, major game manufacturers around the world have been actively following up. North America, Asia, Europe, and Southeast Asia are the most developed and earliest developing regions.

But even so, taking the currently hottest GAG as an example, I am afraid it is not enough to meet the conditions for admission to the Olympics.

After all, that’s 75 countries and regions and four continents!

In such a vast place, unless all e-sports projects that have been carried out around the world can be counted, that may not be possible.

Even so, Mo Yu is not sure. Data must be collected and statistics to determine the final result.

In the first article, there is another requirement, that is, you must be included in the World Championships or Intercontinental Championships at least twice to be eligible for selection.

To put it simply, you have to enter two events at the same level as the Asian Games to qualify.

Noticing Mo Yu's expression, Huo Qi shook his head and continued: "The second rule of elite sports, simply put, is whether it can attract the best athletes from all over the world to participate after meeting the first rule."

"At first glance, there is nothing wrong with this, but please note that it is an athlete, and this athlete must be a professional athlete recognized by one or more countries."

"To put it simply, it's a test, and you need an athlete's certificate."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Yu shook his head helplessly: "Don't talk about getting the certificate. People like Wang Zhang are not uncommon. It's not that easy to get the athlete certificate."

"Actually, I think this may be the easiest thing to do." Huo Qiwen meant something: "Uncle Shang is in his prime and will not retire within ten years. As long as he can help, at least there will be no problems in the country, and He should also be willing to help."

"In addition, South Korea, Europe, and North America are the three most popular and popular regions for e-sports in the world. There is also Saudi Arabia. I have also heard about the e-sports festival."

"There should be opportunities in these places."

Although he didn't say it directly, Mo Yu knew that Huo Qi probably knew about his relationship with the merchant.

However, he did not answer directly, but continued: "Let's talk about the third item."

Huo Qi did not ask further questions and continued: "The third one is the game of interests."

"According to the provisions of the Olympic Charter, the Olympic Committee can only have a maximum of 115 members, but currently there are actually 119 members, including 5 from our country, and one of them is my grandfather."

Mo Yu nodded.

He knew this.

Huo Qi's grandfather is Huo Zhen, the contemporary head of the Huo family, who is a celebrity in the world of sports.

"For example, even if e-sports meets first and second place, a vote will still be required to be admitted to the Olympics. Only if more than 51% of the votes are obtained in the final vote witnessed by all members of the Olympic Committee, then e-sports will Only by competing can you successfully enter the Olympics, otherwise you will not be able to enter."

Three rules.

Each one is extremely difficult.

Judging from the current situation, there is still a long way to go for e-sports to enter the Olympics.

"Compared to other undertakings, if I can develop the emerging sport of e-sports, that would be the best achievement for me. This is why I am willing to help with all my strength." At this point, Huo Qi sighed: "But things are far more difficult than imagined. Even if it is the fastest, it will take seven years, no! It will take at least ten years to achieve it!"

ten years.

This number is related to a requirement of the Olympic Games.

According to the conventions of the Olympic Games, any sport that wants to be admitted to the Olympics must apply seven years in advance.

Usually we often see XX city determined as the venue for the next Olympic Games. From the successful bid to the final opening, there is a seven-year interval in between.

The reason why such a long period of time is set aside is to facilitate the preparations for the next venue. Just building the venue and the Olympic Village must take so long, not to mention all the preparations?

Seven years is simply not enough time.

And if e-sports applies this year, in 2010, then the 31st Brazilian Olympic Games will be held six years later, and it will be impossible to catch up in any case.

So the earliest opportunity is in 2020, or in other words, the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.

It’s just that the plague hasn’t come yet, or it’s still uncertain whether it will come again, but ten years is already the fastest time.

"The road is long and difficult."

Mo Yu sighed: "But no matter what, I have to try."

There was a flash of ambition in his eyes.

Since you have to do it, you have to do it the best.

Entering the Olympics is undoubtedly the pinnacle achievement, and no difficulty can stop it.

"I knew I was right about you."

Huo Qi's depressed expression instantly cheered up: "If e-sports can be included in the Olympics in your hands, it will definitely leave a mark in history in the future."

He said excitedly: "You have also read the three application conditions. If you want to enter the Olympics earlier, I hope you can give me the detailed internal data as soon as possible. Once I am sure that the first condition can be met, then I will Start your relationship immediately and start applying!”
