Chapter 453 Spending Money And Making Money, Changing Impression
As soon as the news came out, the entire e-sports circle was excited!
From the e-sports club to the specific professional players, when I saw the relevant prize pool information, I almost jumped up and punched a hole in the ceiling.
When Lu Yi decided to spend 10 billion to enter the e-sports market, they knew that the number one player would surpass WCG and become the number one e-sports event. Regardless of the size of the competition or the competition prize money, they would use WCG several streets.
But.
They really never thought about using WCG for 100 streets!
Just two days ago, the WCG organizing committee announced this year's bonus settings.
The total prize money of this WCG World Finals is as high as 448,000 meters gold. The highest prize amount is in the "Counter-Strike" project. The championship prize reaches 55,000 meters gold, the runner-up will receive 25,000 meters gold, and the third runner-up will receive 15,000 meters gold.
You know, "Counter-Strike" is a team competition with a team of 5 people.
In other words, if divided equally, even the champion can only get 11,000 meters of gold.
This is only possible because of the increase in the prize pool this year.
In the past few years, especially before Sanxing and Microsoft sponsored WCG, the prize pool of MCG was pitifully small.
Like in 2002, the total bonus pool of WCG was only 30 million yuan, not for a single project, but for all projects!
There are no less than ten competition events in WCG. How much does each one cost?
Broken down further, how much money can the champion get?
Just this has made e-sports people all over the world flock to it.
However, looking at the official bonus pool announced by the current number one player, WCG is completely outclassed by 100 blocks.
For the team competitions "Counter-Strike" and "CrossFire", the prize pool is 2.28 million gold coins, of which the champion is as high as 1.25 million gold coins. If divided equally among five people, that is 250,000 gold coins, equivalent to 1.95 million yuan.
That is to say.
As long as they can win the championship in the team competition of "Counter-Strike" or "Cross Fire", the members of the championship team can become millionaires overnight and directly achieve financial freedom.
A prize pool of 2.28 million meters gold and a prize pool of 44,800 meters gold are a full 50 times different.
Will this make the e-sports circle suddenly rise to the top?
What is a big deal?
This is a big deal!
not to mention.
For professional players, the bonuses for the two competitions "StarCraft" and "Warcraft" are higher than the split bonuses for team competitions.
Because the championship prize is 300,000 meters gold, and the team competition equal share is 250,000 meters gold, which is a full 50,000 meters gold more.
Even in developed countries in Europe and the United States, 50,000 meters of gold is a huge sum of money for many families.
If it were placed in China, he would be a wealthy person.
Moreover.
If you participate in both the team competition and the individual competition, and win the championship in both, then the overall bonus will be even more impressive.
On the WCG side, the prize money of "Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne" ranks third among all projects. The champion will receive 20,000 meters of gold, the runner-up will receive 8,000 meters of gold, the third runner-up will receive 5,000 meters of gold, and the other 4 The top 8 contestants will receive rewards worth a total of 2,000 meters in gold.
The "StarCraft" championship prize is 15,000 meters in gold, the runner-up is 7,000 meters in gold, and the third runner-up is 4,000 meters in gold. Players ranked 4 to 8 will also receive rewards worth a total of 2,000 meters in gold.
By comparison, the prize pool of WCG competitions is no longer very attractive to e-sports clubs and professional players.
The comparison of the bonus pools between the two really corresponds to the saying that there is no harm without comparison.
All e-sports clubs and professional players have their eyes on the number one player, and almost everyone is as excited as if they had been pumped.
If they can win the championship in the Ready Player One game, get a bonus of hundreds of thousands of dollars, and return home, will their family still look at them? Will they still say that they are not doing their jobs properly?
The championship bonus of up to 300,000 yuan, even after deducting 20% personal tax, is about 1.85 million yuan. You can buy a 6-70 square meter house in the center of a domestic first-tier city like Shanghai.
The organizers of WCG had no choice but to smile after seeing the prize pool of the top player. They had to say that Future Group has a lot of money and their decision to adjust the WCG competition time next year was correct.
If a tough guy wants to go head-to-head with the number one player, as soon as this news comes out, they will be covered in blood.
It is foreseeable that the entire e-sports world will be looking forward to next year's Ready Player One event.
Such a high prize pool “will be the strongest motivation for professional players around the world.
In order to win the championship in the Ready Player One event next year, they will do whatever it takes to beat the blood and bring more exciting games to the audience.
Especially for domestic e-sports players, as long as they win a championship, they can gain both fame and fortune.
Many people who recently confessed to their families that they are engaged in e-sports, at this moment, directly took the relevant news and excitedly told their families, proving to their families that e-sports is really not an idle job, it is a legitimate profession, and it is Those who can get generous bonuses have a bright future.
Those who didn't understand e-sports were dumbfounded and gasped when they saw the high prize money of two to three hundred thousand meters.
Why do they object to their children engaging in e-sports?
I am worried that my children will not have any skills or education when they grow up, and will not be able to find a job or have enough food to eat.
In their view, playing games is not doing their job properly and has no future.
But now, seeing the million-dollar championship prize, they had a different understanding of e-sports for the first time in their minds.
The championship prize is 200,000 to 300,000 meters gold!
Although they are ordinary people who have never been abroad and have never even seen what Mijin looks like, it does not prevent them from understanding that one Mijin can be exchanged for seven or eight RMB.
Two to three hundred thousand meters of gold, that is nearly 2 million yuan.
How many years of work does it take for an ordinary family like theirs to earn 2 million yuan?
Based on the current per capita annual income of 20,000 yuan, one person would need to save for 100 years without eating or drinking to save enough. Even if two people save together, it would take 50 years.
It can be said.
2 million, for an ordinary family, is probably not enough money to make in a lifetime.
Even if they don't win the championship, as long as they reach the top 16, they can still get a 5,000-meter gold bonus, which is an income of nearly 40,000 yuan, which is comparable to their salary after two years of work.
For the first time, their impression of e-sports has changed.
Playing video games costs money.
But you can make money by engaging in e-sports!
