Chapter 132: In another world, whoever touches it will be sent!
August, Chongqing.
After nearly a year, the 23-24 season Golden League of "Star Emperor" has finally come to an end.
It was supposed to end in June.
However, due to the entry of console manufacturers midway, two new sub-stations were added to the league, so the league was delayed until August to be completed.
The last stop is Yucheng!
AMD won the annual championship of Golden League S1 with a total score of 245 thanks to its excellent team coordination, more professional teamwork, and strong logistical support! It is worth mentioning that NVIDIA also had a total score of more than 200.
But it was too late...
After continuous battles, due to the lack of logistical support, NVIDIA's performance in the second half of the schedule can only be described in a few words.
During the South American station, NVIDIA even made a joke that its console was damaged and there were no suitable parts to replace it, so it asked the referee to suspend the game and then airlift the parts from North America to the competition site.
The game was suspended that time for 13 hours, which confused everyone.
Since then, the GAL League has formulated new rules, and teams that fail to replace parts will be automatically disqualified and will no longer be allowed to apply for a game suspension on this ground.
"Where did Nvidia lose?"
《AMD dynasty established! GAL23-24 annual championship! 》
"Several professional analysts on Wall Street said: The GAL League will greatly change the market share of consumer-grade PC hardware..."
"Intel CEO: A series of consumer-grade discrete graphics products will be launched in the future, aiming for the S2 annual championship!"
The impact of AMD's victory continues to ferment in the PC hardware circle, attracting reports from various media.
I have to say.
AMD has invested a lot for this annual championship. According to estimates by professional analysts, AMD's cumulative investment is no less than 100 million yuan, ranking at the top of the GAL league.
Judging from the results, the more than 100 million yuan was well spent. The influence and advertising effect of GAL's first annual championship can definitely offset this investment, and even make a huge profit!
Let’s not talk about the stock price…
After AMD won the GAL annual championship, almost all A-series products ushered in a sales frenzy. Whether it is the CPU or GPU, they are all the first choice of computer builders.
Market share increased slightly.
This is undoubtedly a great joy for AMD. Huang looks down on those who play games, but Su does! The booming personal computer market has also boosted the overall AMD brand image.
In the past, everyone said that AMD was not good and was still a little behind Nvidia and Intel. But now, these two companies can be silenced with just one sentence.
AMD is the S1 annual champion, what kind of champion are you ?
Nvidia and Intel are not pushovers either. After being criticized by AMD, although they did not say it, they actually increased their investment in the GAL League.
They are not convinced! They can be said to have been defeated by manufacturers such as Renshuo and Shrinking Star, but they are the leaders in their respective industries. How can they tolerate AMD climbing over their heads and bullying them?
It is worth mentioning.
The two console giants, Sony and Microsoft, entered the market late and had the natural disadvantages of their console platforms, so their performance was relatively poor.
But both of them claimed that they would make efforts in the GAL competition in the new year to prove that their own console platforms are not bad, and they also have their own black technology...
“Is this true or false?”
"Of course it's true!"
Chen Ba said with a smile: "These two OEMs are not much worse than other companies in terms of size and technology. If they are really willing to release black technology, they will definitely achieve results next year."
This is beyond doubt.
The console platform does have a big disadvantage in competing in the GAL League, but it is not impossible to win.
Sony and Microsoft, as long as these two companies are willing to pile up the latest high-tech, they might really shock people and refresh the audience's stereotype of "poor console performance".
Of course, this also depends on courage.
Not every manufacturer is willing to apply the latest technology to the GAL League and expose it to the spotlight.
For example, Lao Huang was scolded.
Many loyal N card fans said that the reason why NVIDIA lost the GAL's first annual championship trophy was due to Huang's toothpaste squeezing mentality.
It's fine to squeeze toothpaste when developing products, but why do you squeeze toothpaste when playing games? AMD has brought in technology that "will be difficult to commercialize even after ten years", and you are still squeezing toothpaste here? Who are you squeezing for?
“The GAL League is really hot!”
At this point, Yang Dong couldn't help but sigh: "It feels like the popularity of this event and the number of viewers across the entire network have far surpassed the total number of players in the game "Star Emperor"."
"Indeed..."
Chen Ba was also quite embarrassed.
The GAL League is an e-sports competition that was born out of "Star Emperor". As a result, the competition is more well-known than the game itself, and the number of people watching the competition is more than ten times that of those playing the game.
This is too much.
Have you ever seen a professional game become more famous than the game itself? Now it happens!
"Star Emperor" is like this. The competition is more famous than the game. The fans of top professional players are more than the number of active players in the entire game...
That’s right!
As the top star player in the GAL League, Xu Xiaofei has at least tens of millions of fans online. It is no exaggeration to call him a "big internet celebrity."
But at the moment, the total number of active players of Star Emperor is only in the millions. Who would dare to believe this? "There is a certain degree of overlap between the audience watching the game and the players playing the game, but they are not the same group of people."
Yang Dong explained with a smile: "Just because someone likes to watch GAL games doesn't mean they play the game. Many people only watch the games and don't play the game."
Commonly known as cloud players!
There is no client...
This kind of thing is actually quite normal in the e-sports circle. Let’s not talk about the distant past, just take the most popular League of Legends professional league as an example. Do all the spectators who watch the game have the client and are all playing the game?
This is pure bullshit! The number of active players in League of Legends has been declining for many years. The popularity and heat of today's games are mostly supported by cloud players.
…
After the end of the 23-24 season, the GAL league entered a short offseason.
But while GAL players and staff can take vacations, Tianba Studio cannot rest. They still have to perform routine updates and maintenance for many of their games.
besides.
The TV series "Living Under Someone Else's Roof Simulator", adapted from "Living Under Someone Else's Roof Simulator", will also be aired in the near future.
Chen Ba has been a member of Penguin Video for a month, just waiting for this drama!
On the day of the premiere, he got a projector and gathered everyone in the studio to watch this TV series adapted from his own game.
"Sojourner" initially released five episodes, and then two episodes were updated every day.
In addition to watching it on Penguin Video, you can also watch this drama on CCTV-8's TV drama channel, also with two episodes per day.
Not only Chen Ba and others, but also many old players of "Living under Someone's Fence Simulator" are paying attention to this drama. Not long after the TV series was aired, discussion posts about this drama appeared in the community.
"It's OK, the adaptation is quite good."
“The plot has a faster pace and the actors have excellent acting skills. It is indeed a good game adaptation.”
"Aunt! I love you so much..."
"There are no good reviews from young actors or popular stars, but one point for veteran actors and one point for the actress who plays my aunt, so the minimum score is more than eight points!"
Surprisingly, the reputation of this drama is quite good. After watching it, many players who had no expectations actually thought that this adaptation was okay and acceptable.
Although the routines are still the common routines of family ethics dramas, the plot is derived from the game, so everyone will feel familiar when watching it, so they will not find it melodramatic.
And most importantly, the actors are basically veteran actors and talented young actors, so their acting skills are guaranteed and will not make people feel awkward.
“Okay, okay!”
Chen Ba watched the first two episodes and then checked the comment section. After confirming that the show had received a very good response, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the drama "The Sojourner" was filmed and produced by Haitian Films throughout the whole process, Tianba Studio did not invest too much energy and attention. Even if it turns out to be a mess, the audience cannot blame Brother Ba.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
But this drama is adapted from a game after all, so it would be a lie to say he doesn't care.
Who would like a pile of shit if it could be photographed better?
This is good enough for now.
Although it is not as good or as attractive as those masterpieces, its overall performance is definitely top-notch in today's TV drama field.
There are no young and handsome actors or popular stars, which is a prerequisite for ensuring the quality of "The Guest".
But because of this, the drama lacks a certain amount of traffic and exposure, and its popularity and popularity all depend on the actor who plays "Aunt".
"The ratings are probably average."
"As for online viewing volume, it's probably not much better. After all, this kind of family ethics drama is watched by the audience who likes it on TV, and young people on the Internet rarely watch it."
Yang Dong’s analysis is very accurate.
Chen Ba also agreed with his statement. It is indeed difficult for the drama "The Guest" to become popular. After all, there are no young and handsome actors and no popular stars to support it, and it is naturally lacking in exposure.
But it's not a big problem.
Haitian Film and Television didn't invest much money in this drama, so it will definitely make a profit, and it would be a good thing to gain some good reputation.
"It's OK, let's see how it goes later."
The TV series has just started airing, and it would be too hasty to conclude that its performance will not improve.
Let's wait and see! If the ratings and playback volume of subsequent episodes never pick up, then just ignore it. What if... this drama becomes popular? People always have to have dreams!
Although this dream is somewhat unrealistic, Chen Ba still holds a glimmer of hope. If this drama becomes popular, then taking advantage of this wave of popularity, the already buried "Living in Other People's House Simulator" can be brought out and re-released.
"Instead of hoping that the drama "Sojourner" will become popular, you might as well hope that Shen'en Animation will..."
Hearing this, Yang Dong couldn't help but complain, "I'll tell you something you may not know. Several Shen'en animations have already been aired on domestic children's cartoon channels."
"Ah? There is such a thing?"
Ever since the early access of "Love Staff" was launched, Chen Ba has really not paid attention to the latest developments of "Divine Grace Continent".
He was shocked to suddenly learn that some Shen'en animations had broken through the Internet platform and started to be broadcast on television platforms.
Is there anyone buying this?
No, are TV stations so short of cartoons nowadays? Why buy Shen'en animation when there are so many other animations to buy?
“Why can’t I buy it?”
Yang Dong curled his lips and said, "Although Shen'en Animation has some shortcomings, it is cheap and large in quantity!"
and……
The shortcomings of Shen'en animation, is this a big problem for those children who love to watch cartoons? Just kidding!
Children don’t care about any kind of animation. As long as it is an animation and it is good and interesting, they will love to watch it.
“It’s really hard to explain why the quantity is large and the price is low.”
Chen Ba thought about it and found that what Dong Ge said made sense.
Shen'en animation has a large amount of content and the price is cheap, so these TV stations will definitely not lose money if they buy it to broadcast.
Besides.
The current domestic animation market is generally dominated by online animations, and there are really few television animations.
Even if the TV station wants to buy better animations, on the one hand, its financial resources are limited, and on the other hand, it is difficult to pass the censorship.
The Shen'en animation is much better.
There are basically no problems with the review. It is cheap and interesting to watch. It is definitely the best choice to send it to TV stations to broadcast for children.
The previous Shen'en animation might not have been able to do this, but since the image quality was upgraded and the professional version and personalized customized version were launched, it is no problem now.
"Boonie Bears" has been the dominant TV show for so many years, there is no reason why Shen'en animation cannot be broadcast.
It's not that the average quality of Shen'en animation is higher than that of Boonie Bears, but for children, do they really care who the protagonist of the animation is? The farce of Big Bear, Little Bear and Bald Qiang has been watched for so many years, and people should be tired of it.
At this time, it will definitely feel fresh to see an animation with "skeleton" as the protagonist, "slime" as the protagonist, and "dragon" as the protagonist.
"Shen En animation has been on TV for a long time. The first one was a foreign cartoon TV station that introduced "The Adventures of Jayne."
Yang Dong explained: "Later, with the entry of a large number of Japanese animators, more and more Shenen animations began to enter the TV platform."
The other world is basically finished.
This theme is not very popular in China, but in Japan, a place that loves the other world, it has basically been linked to "Shenen Animation".
Nine out of ten new Japanese anime works about another world are based on God’s grace.
This proportion can be summed up in one word: absolute!
To put it bluntly, no one is interested in watching the new shows about reincarnation in another world. After all, you don't need to watch it to know that you must have used the professional version of "Shennong Continent".
What? You are original?
That won’t work! The theme of different worlds is already rotten. Even if it is an original work, or an adaptation of a popular light novel or manga, it has no future at all.
Either join the God's Grace animation or surrender right here, there is no third option...
Haven’t you seen that the famous RE0 and Overlord series have been put on ice by the producers and they announced that they would no longer produce sequels?
This topic is now a sinkhole.
Even the series with a huge hit in the previous game dare not release a sequel now, so what if you make another RE0? Can it change the current situation of Shenen animation dominating the other world? Listen to my advice, don't stick to the other world, change the subject matter quickly!
