Thriller Paradise Chapter 976: 3 announcements

In the early morning of November 16th, with the abstention of the gods, the semi-final stage of the Peak Contest S2 came to an end.

No one thought that the last semi-final that was long overdue... that much-anticipated, finale peak match... would actually end in this way.

The reason why the first team of the gods abstained was only the captain Shi Long, that is, [Shiva] who knew it, and even his four teammates didn't understand the reason.

Speaking of...the four have no choice. They have a contract with the gods, and naturally they have to obey the arrangement of the studio in terms of competition; Shi Long is both the team captain and the studio owner, since he Speaking of abstention...The teammates can only execute.

On the other hand, the order side was also quite shocked by this situation.

The management is undoubtedly pleasantly surprised, but the players are surprised and suspicious. The "Drunken Life, Dream of Death" and the "Four Heavenly Kings of the Gods" are also considered old acquaintances, and because of this... they are even more surprised by this abstention incident.

However, they were unable to contact Shiva himself for the time being, because within fifteen minutes after the news was announced, the official website and customer service system of the studio of the gods exploded...

Shiva himself quickly logged out of the game, refused all interviews, and refused to answer even the questions from the company.

That night, he simply explained a few words to the general manager of the studio, and then took his wife home.

After that...Feng Bujue met him uninvited and discussed some things.

What did they talk about in detail, I won’t show it here...

Let’s go on to say the next day...

At two o'clock in the afternoon the next day, Shi Long, as the boss of the gods, held a press conference on this "abstaining incident"...

He took a draft of his speech and read it out. He gave a strange but indisputable reason-"I was unable to play the game due to physical reasons last night, and my teammates agreed unanimously. , The team abstained."

To be honest, this rhetoric...no one believes it.

But it's useless if you don't believe it... Anyway, Shi Long said it was "physical reasons". That is the physical reason. What is the specific physical reason, sorry... this is personal **.

Want to ask something about his teammates...also for nothing. [Vishnu], [Great Brahma] and [Yammo] These three have been in friendship with Shi Long for many years, and they are unlikely to talk nonsense in public or private; there is another [Asura]... He is Shi Long's own cousin. It is even more impossible to say something and nothing.

The voices of these parties are the same, so there is no breakthrough in this matter...

In the final analysis, this is abstention, not cheating, don't you still allow others to be uncomfortable? Isn't it okay to see Boss Shi's uncle here?

In short. The waiver was forcibly explained by Shi Long.

Of course, he's done flicking over there, and the reporters won't accept it all...Everyone thinks that there must be a lot of articles behind the gods' abstention, and the impact of the incident will continue to ferment for at least a while. time.

So, just after the press conference, irresponsible gossip such as "cowardly fighting", "peripheral gambling", "shady trading" and other unscrupulous media have been brewing in the minds of various unscrupulous media...

However, these people's articles basically failed to be finalized, because...

At four o'clock in the afternoon on November 16, shortly after the press conference of the gods. The Dream Company silently posted an announcement on its official website that surprised the majority of media people--

【The S2 Finals of the Peak Contest is limited to in-game players. 】

What is this concept? According to the FAQ at the bottom of the announcement... This announcement does not mean that the finals will be "not broadcast live", but that... this time there is no "video" for the finals.

To be more specific-only the "player" who enters the thriller park game in "sleep mode" through the game cabin, and must be a player who created a character before midnight on November 16, 2055... …Only you can watch the game; those who do not meet the above conditions will not be able to connect to the game or be forced to disconnect during the finals. As for other online live broadcast platforms...all will be closed. Moreover, the video data of the final will not be played out afterwards.

From the perspective of a businessman, Meng's approach is no different from going crazy...

First of all, in terms of the current social attention of "Peak Contest S2". Only the advertising revenue before the start of the finals is a business worth over 100 million yuan. But... they don't even broadcast it.

Secondly, if you don’t live it live, you won’t be able to broadcast it, so that you can make a profit by taking out the game video for exclusive distribution. However, they actually said that they would not even keep the video...

In addition. It doesn't make any sense to shut out audiences other than existing players...

If this first announcement does not include the restriction of "Create a character before November 16, 2055", it can still be understood as a marketing campaign... To put it bluntly, it is forcing people to play your game (game The cabin is not a problem, you can go to the Internet cafe to use it without buying it). But Dream Company has limited the time, even if you see the announcement and immediately go to the game to build a character...

This kind of approach will definitely make those who are interested in the game but have not yet entered the pit very dissatisfied...

To sum up, this decision of Dream Company is really inexplicable. In addition to the loss of a lot of money and potential players, there is basically no good point.

But... if you think about it carefully, no matter what the motivation is, their behavior has already foreshadowed...

As early as when the preliminaries were not over and Dream Company auctioned the "match broadcast rights" for the first time, they were already prepared for this step... so all their broadcast rights were sold in stages.

In this way, when IndoMTL.com reaches the finals, they can suddenly announce that the broadcasting rights of this stage will not be sold as they do now.

In addition, below the heavy news mentioned above, there was another announcement that has nothing to do with most players——

[Explanation about the prizes that have not been distributed in the preliminary rounds. 】

The "Prizes that have not been awarded in the preliminaries" mentioned in this announcement are a total of two, one is a "limited edition T-shirt", and the other is the "forty-eight hours of new version experience qualification."

Other prizes in the preliminaries, including game currency, experience, equipment, etc., were already in place before the start of the quarter-finals, but the above two have been delayed.

And this time, the official has clearly given the time and form of distribution: first, the T-shirt will be sent out today, and we will post it; second, the limited-time experience function will be activated within one week after the finals.

So... what's the date of the final?

The third announcement is that-[The Summit of Hegemony S2 Finals-"The Twilight of the Gods", which will be held at 0:00 on November 19th. 】(To be continued.)
