Chapter 196 Is this how you accept an interview?
Yang Ruoqian came to his seat, watched the video of the team's pre-match threats played on the stage and the host's passionate introduction of all the contestants, and yawned imperceptibly.
The introductions of both teams before the game were quite boring. No matter how strong a team was objectively, the organizers of the game always had to find ways to praise the team from all angles and show some wonderful operations and kill highlights.
In short, just make the two teams look evenly matched as much as possible.
Since it was a live competition, Yan Jinyu, who was sitting next to him, had to translate in real time, otherwise Yang Ruoqian would not be able to understand Bangla.
Soon, all the pre-match activities were completed and the two sides began to fight with real swords and guns.
Then, just over ten minutes into the game, the evenly matched game had already lost its suspense.
To put it bluntly, it was a one-sided massacre, so one-sided that Yang Ruoqian even doubted how this team had made it all the way to the semi-finals.
After more than twenty minutes, an exciting yet boring game ended.
It is exciting because it is rare for a world championship to be so bloody.
It is boring because there is almost no suspense in the game - perhaps the only suspense is how many times YTG can kill the opponent.
And it seemed that because they were stunned in the first game, YTG played better and better in the next two games.
During the last game, the commentators on the Chinese channel even started laughing and joking.
"The opponent's top laner was taught a lesson by our forehand and backhand, so his mentality is about to collapse, right?"
"You see, he has lost his confidence after being beaten."
"This game is torture for him now... Actually, we can understand them to a certain extent, after all, we were in the same position before."
"By the way, did you hear that the owner of the YTG club is also coming along this time? How about asking the director to give the owner a shot?"
"...Okay, okay, let's see how the boss reacts when he sees his team perform so well."
"Wow, so young! And there's a beautiful woman beside him, he's worthy of being the big boss..."
“…”
At this time, Yang Ruoqian, who was watching the game in the audience and could not listen to the Chinese channel commentary, watched YTG win the game expressionlessly, unaware that the camera was pointed at him.
"I shouldn't have any hope. I should just start developing new projects as soon as I get back to the company..."
Yang Ruoqian complained, tore off the hot dog wrapper in his hand, opened his mouth and swallowed half of the hot dog.
It wasn't because Yang Ruoqian was extremely hungry, but because he didn't want to take small bites like this and have his mouth full of food residues, which would affect his image.
After finishing dinner in a dozen seconds, Yang Ruoqian glanced towards the competition stage. The players from both teams were shaking hands perfunctorily. The winner stayed and the loser went home.
However, there was not much frustration on the losers' faces. On the contrary, they were in high spirits and did not look like they were swept out 3:0.
The next thing is also very simple, which is to accept interviews from the official game regions, express victory speeches, and look forward to the finals.
On the stage, the host of the Chinese station walked up and asked the YTG team members some very basic questions, such as what they thought of the game, what they thought of their opponents, what they thought of their opponents in the next game, whether they were confident of winning the championship, etc.
Although the team members were excited because they had won, they had not yet won the championship. They were worried about being humiliated, so they answered the questions very carefully and did not make any jokes.
Just when everyone thought this was an ordinary interview, the host suddenly changed the subject and said mysteriously, "I heard that your boss is also here today. How do you think he feels now?"
Ruan Min'er had just finished a match, and her mind was in a mess. Without thinking, she said, "Since he is here, why don't you just ask him?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the director wisely focused the camera on Yang Ruoqian.
Suddenly, Yang Ruoqian's figure appeared on the screens of the entire competition venue at the same time.
The hostess glanced at the screen and said jokingly, "I wonder if Boss Yang has time to accept our interview?"
Upon learning that the boss of YTG had arrived at the scene, the game officials must have urgently found out. It was not surprising that the host knew Yang Ruoqian's name.
Although Yang Ruoqian did not have a microphone in his hand at this time, the camera was facing him after all, so he could express his wishes with just a nod or a shake of his head.
In fact, Yang Ruoqian himself was not very interested in being in the limelight, but this time when faced with the opportunity to be interviewed, he thought about it and agreed.
A bold plan had already emerged in his mind.
According to the theory of relativity, if you can't make yourself weaker, then making your enemy stronger will have the same effect.
Controlling the variables, everyone's club is made up of these internet-addicted teenagers, the training methods are similar, and there is nothing special about the coaches.
So what is the reason why YTG is so brave and has achieved what countless old clubs cannot do just one year after its establishment? Apart from the personal factors of the players, there is only one answer: the training environment!
As long as we can find a way to popularize our training methods for our players and raise the overall level of all other clubs, wouldn't YTG be weaker in comparison?
After being led to the stage by the staff, the host looked Yang Ruoqian up and down and complimented him in a joking tone: "Boss Yang is really young. You should play games normally, right?"
I was busy making money in my last life, and I am busy losing money in this life. What games should I play? I play games occasionally, but they are also single-player or online PVE games. I almost never touch this kind of high-intensity competitive games.
"Yes, I play frequently and have been playing since the server was launched, so I have a lot of experience in how to adjust the players' mentality."
Yang Ruoqian looked relaxed and composed, and he almost believed what he said.
As expected, the host immediately became alert upon hearing this and quickly asked, "Oh, then can we have the honor of listening to how Boss Yang manages the club?"
In order to make his words seem more credible, Yang Ruoqian did not say it directly, but kept it a secret and deliberately hesitated for a moment: "Well..."
"Mr. Yang, please tell us. Everyone is very interested in your experience of success." The host was very good at livening up the atmosphere. He was very careful with every word he said and did not use any moral blackmail.
Seeing that the groundwork had been laid, if he continued to shirk it, people might not ask anymore. Yang Ruoqian coughed twice and said mysteriously, "As someone who often plays games, I can deeply understand how much impact unscientific training methods can have on players."
“So, YTG’s training method is different from other clubs.”
"Maybe many people think that playing games is just about moving the mouse and keyboard, and it is a technical job rather than a physical job. This is actually a wrong perception."
"Esports players already have a lot of bad habits. They sit in the wrong posture, have a lot of problems with their cervical spine, lumbar spine and hands. They are already full of injuries at a young age and can't even use 50% of their strength. What's the point?"
"So I have arranged various massage equipment in my training hall, and have dedicated masseurs available 24 hours a day. As long as the players want, they can get a free massage, with no limit on time or number of times."
The host seemed to be surprised that Yang Ruoqian would give such an answer, and looked at several contestants in disbelief.
But I found that they all had a matter-of-fact expression on their faces, as if this is how the training hall should be.
Yang Ruoqian, who was in the right state, continued to talk: "In addition, don't always force the contestants to do something, let them do it consciously."
"For example, if you want employees to move around more, you can move the training hall to a downtown area, or directly to the center of a shopping mall, and then give these players some consumption cards every day, so that they have to go to certain places..."
"Talent and skills can only be determined by the players themselves. What the club needs to do is to get their bodies in good shape so that they can cope with high-intensity competitions that can last for hours at a time."
"No matter how good the other teams are, their performance will decline after one game. After three games, they will be in a trance and lose their concentration by the fifth game. Then they will be beaten by us, right?"
After saying that, the host, who was supposed to make a seamless transition, stayed where he was and remained silent for three full seconds.
What Mr. Yang said seems to make a little bit of sense, but why does it feel like... all of these things have an unavoidable prerequisite?
Isn't this kind of expenditure a bit too huge? "Ahem, what Mr. Yang said suddenly makes me curious about YTG's training base..."
In order to make his words more credible, Yang Ruoqian spread his hands nonchalantly and smiled at the camera: "It's okay, everyone is welcome to visit YTG's training base to verify whether what I said is true."
…
China, Jinhai City, Jiahe Bund.
After finishing a day of filming, Shang Qianyu was sitting at the dining table, eating noodles while watching the live broadcast on his phone.
Wen Ruoxiu came closer with some curiosity and asked, "What are you watching? A live game match? When did you play computer games?"
This schoolmate of mine only plays simple mobile games. She is so clumsy that she played games all day long during the anniversary celebration to get a new mobile phone. But if she dares to touch a computer PVP game, she will be scolded by her teammates and have a mental breakdown.
The anniversary celebration of Kuiguang Group cannot be said to be letting people go, it is simply letting the sea go.
"No, the landlord is being interviewed." Shang Qianyu said without hesitation, "It seems that he has made it to the finals, so impressive."
"Why do you care about other people's affairs?" Wen Ruoxiu just glanced at him twice and looked away without interest. "Thinking carefully about your future development path is the right way."
The filming of "The Boys" is gradually coming to an end, and various publicity and promotion campaigns have been launched simultaneously, and the response has been very good.
The situation that the crew had secretly worried about before, that they would be attacked by superhero fans who wanted to take advantage of the popularity, did not occur at all.
On the contrary, it was these fans who were most interested in the initial promotional videos of this movie.
Because they can tell at a glance whose images these "anti-superheroes" are inspired by, and they can quickly identify with them.
After all, this is the first film jointly developed by Kuiguang Group and Chengyu Group, so naturally they have to choose the best clips for publicity and promotion.
Shang Qianyu, a newcomer with pure and beautiful looks, excellent acting skills, and who has never made an official public appearance, immediately caused quite a stir.
Even some sharp-eyed and gambling-minded companies have already sent cooperation invitations to our company!
Filmmaking is a matter of randomness and chance. It is normal for the same actor to make a hit in one movie and a dud in the next.
While the reputation is good and the popularity is high, the top priority is to hype it up and increase the popularity.
Shang Qianyu watched the interview with great interest and asked absentmindedly, "Senior sister, just help me arrange it. I'll listen to you."
"This is your own business, can you please pay more attention to it!" Wen Ruo smiled delicately, bent her fingers, and tapped Shang Qianyu's forehead lightly, "After the filming of this movie, what are you going to do? Stay at home and waste your time."
At this time, the interview session of the competition was over, and Yang Ruoqian quickly left the competition venue with the unfamiliar young lady. It seemed that they did not plan to stay overnight and were going to catch the night flight back.
"Oh, I'll just follow the company's arrangements." Shang Qianyu blinked and turned off his phone. "Such a big company, how can they not make arrangements for a nobody like me?"
"Then do you know what the company said?" Wen Ruoxiu sneered.
Shang Qianyu was about to drink the soup from his bowl when he paused and asked, "Ah, what did the company say?"
"The company asked us to think about it and make our own arrangements."
Having said this, Wen Ruoxiu couldn't help but shake his head vigorously.
What a magical scene—the artists themselves don’t fight for resources, but just lie down and let the company ravage them; the company is even more outrageous, throwing precious resources directly at them, and as for how to squander these resources, the company doesn’t care at all! “…Ah?” Shang Qianyu was a little confused. Although she was naive and romantic, it didn’t mean that she didn’t understand some basic rules of the industry. “Then, what about advertising? What about variety show invitations? And what about the operation of social accounts?”
Wen Ruoxiu took a deep breath and explained one by one: "Business orders are up to you. If you don't want to participate in variety shows, forget it. Social media accounts are under your control. You can post whatever you want."
She added: "These are the words of the company's operations and brokerage, not mine."
After saying that, both of them fell silent.
After a while, Shang Qianyu revealed a puzzled look: "Senior sister, why do I feel that our company is somewhat different from other companies?"
With so many resources invested, the group is obviously operating normally, but why does the group's attitude seem to be indifferent?
It's a bit like "Do you want this gold bar? If not, I'll throw it in the trash can"...
I feel like the autonomy is a bit too much!
"Congratulations, you finally found it." Wen Ruoxiu said weakly, "This is really cause for celebration."
"It's okay. I trust the landlord's arrangements. The filming will be finished tomorrow, so just wait for the arrangements!" Shang Qianyu was confused for a moment, but she was no longer confused. It was not that she understood something, but she just put the problem behind her and stopped thinking about it. "You said the landlord will be back soon, should we prepare a surprise for him?"
"Please hurry up and stop..."
They are blood relatives, and they evolve by devouring their blood relatives.
Yuan saw this scene in the deep sea:
A confused, toddling salamander said cautiously, "Blood relative! Eat you!"
A monster covered in pus struggled to crawl over and said in a vicious voice: "Blood kin, eat me."
