330: Section 330

“What we need to do next,”

“is to make the number of League of Legends players surpass Dota on its first day of open beta.”

“After it gains momentum in Yan Country, it won’t be too late to spread to other overseas servers.”

After Wang Mo finished speaking, Zhang Fan also nodded.

However, he immediately thought of something else.

“Oh, right.”

“What about the esports direction?”

“Our global esports system has already been initially set up, just waiting for clubs to join.”

“But right now, we haven’t announced our esports plan, and there hasn’t been a complete global esports system before; it’s all been small-scale. Can our esports system succeed?”

Because before this world, a truly complete esports system had never appeared.

Most of the previous competitions were organized by players of different games themselves.

That’s why Zhang Fan was worried about whether this esports system would succeed.

Facing Wang Mo,

Wang Mo’s lips curled up slightly.

He patted Zhang Fan’s shoulder and said,

“Just trust me. The potential of the League of Legends esports system will definitely exceed your imagination.”

“Once there are enough players, we will announce the esports plan, and clubs will naturally join due to the high prize money. I’ve already made plans for all other operations related to the esports system, so you don’t need to worry.”

Listening to Wang Mo’s words, Zhang Fan also took a deep breath and nodded.

Then Wang Mo stretched, and said to Ye Youxue behind him,

“Want to go out for a late-night snack?”

“Mm.” Ye Youxue nodded, then came to Wang Mo’s side.

Watching the two gradually leave, Zhang Fan directly shouted,

“Boss, I’m a bit hungry too, can I join you?”

Before Wang Mo could say anything, Ye Youxue turned her head and gave Zhang Fan a look that said, ‘Why are you so insensitive?’

She also said at the same time,

“Order takeout yourself!”

Watching Ye Youxue’s actions beside him, Wang Mo just smiled, and without stopping, he said to Zhang Fan,

“If you don’t want your year-end bonus, then come.”

Not long after Wang Mo and Ye Youxue left Junzi Group,

the weibo hot search about Wang Mo’s live stream and the weibo hot search about League of Legends’ official announcement of an early open beta simultaneously climbed to the top two spots on weibo hot search!

And the hot search about Wang Mo’s live stream went up with an explosive trend.

The gimmick that Crimson-Blood Zed’s identity was actually Wang Mo was simply too big. No gamer had ever thought that a business tycoon of this level would be a gamer.

The key was that he played so well!

The appearance of this hot search

made many users who were originally curious about League of Legends even more excited, and also made many other types of game users who were still watching develop immense curiosity about this brand-new MOBA game.

An internal test activation code could be speculated to tens of thousands, and the most dazzling internet tycoon in Yan Country was the most skilled person in this game. The appearance of these two hot searches undoubtedly whetted players’ appetites to the extreme.

Under such a premise,

League of Legends’ official announcement of an earlier open beta undoubtedly added fuel to the game’s popularity.

On that evening,

the number of League of Legends pre-registrations in Yan Country had already exceeded ten million!

This was an unprecedented situation for a PC game.

And under widespread anticipation,

time flew by rapidly.

Soon,

it was the day of League of Legends’ official open beta!.

Chapter 255: Game Officially Goes Open Beta! Players Waiting for Server Launch.

“It’s finally here. After watching live streams for half a month, my hands are really itching!”

“Don’t even mention it. My first champion will be Zed. I want to be the world’s number one Zed!”

“Don’t dream, upstairs. This champion’s popularity is extremely high right now. Countless players will definitely play this champion. It’s too hard to become a top player.”

“Only a few minutes until the servers open. I can’t wait any longer.”

“Hurry up, the client is already downloaded, just waiting for the servers to open.”

Before 9 AM that day,

as the time for League of Legends’ open beta server launch drew closer, countless players had already prepared, downloaded the game client in advance, just waiting to enter the game.

Because League of Legends’ popularity was too high before,

the news of the game’s open beta also attracted immense attention. Even the night before, the information that League of Legends was about to go open beta had already climbed to the top of weibo hot search.

This time, Wang Mo’s action of moving the open beta date up by three days almost seamlessly connected League of Legends’ popularity during the closed beta to the open beta.

At this moment, across the country,

at least several million players were waiting in front of their computers to enter the game.

Most of these players were attracted by the various hot searches about League of Legends before. They also wanted to try if this game was really as fun as rumored.

At this moment,

in another building not far from Junzi Group in Modu,

“The client download count has already exceeded five million.”

“Among these five million users, at least three to four million players will enter the game as soon as the open beta begins.”

“Throughout today, the number of registered League of Legends players can indeed exceed Dota’s five million.”

“Later, through our joint activities with other software and game promotions, we should be able to increase the number of registered players to a quite exaggerated level.”

“It’s just that I don’t know how many players will remain when the game finally stabilizes.”

At this moment,

Qin Haisheng looked at the data on the tablet in his hand and said to Wang Mo beside him.

Besides the two of them, Zhang Fan, Zhao Ming, and others were also there.

Their current location

was the Riot Studio under Junzi Group.

This studio was also the department that contributed the most to the development of League of Legends, besides Wang Mo himself.

Due to the great importance placed on League of Legends, and because the number of employees in the original Junzi Group building was already a bit excessive, Wang Mo specifically prepared a place for Riot.

After all, this place was not only responsible for the subsequent updates and maintenance of League of Legends but also the central point for the future esports industry.

Besides Yan Country,

many other countries also had League of Legends branches.

These departments were responsible for the local League of Legends servers, as well as the subsequent establishment of local esports systems.

“Don’t worry about retention, have more confidence in the game.”

After speaking,

Wang Mo raised his hand to look at his watch, then walked to the window and looked down.

In an internet cafe not far outside the window, many players had already opened the League of Legends client and were waiting for the servers to open.

Watching this scene,

Wang Mo slowly took a deep breath.

“It’s time to let all players around the world know what a truly blockbuster game is like.”

As soon as Wang Mo finished speaking,

an alarm sounded behind him.

“Boss, the servers are open.”

The alarm was set by Zhang Fan, and the time was when League of Legends’ servers opened.

At this moment,
