On the day of the exhibition.
This year's YouTube Exhibition was as crowded as ever. Many gamers from Shanghai had come. There were even some who came from other places just to look at the showgirls. At the same time, they wanted to try out next year's new games.
Many players were discussing at the entrance of the exhibition.
"Hmm? Emperor Dynasty Entertainment, Zen Entertainment, and Thunderbolt Entertainment aren't in the same exhibition hall this year? "
"Did the officials do it on purpose?"
"I think so. Chen Mo's Thunderbolt Entertainment is pretty much a big player now. He should be able to hold an exhibition hall by himself."
"Hahaha, I remember the first time Chen Mo held an exhibition, he was fooling around with Emperor Dynasty. The worst part was Anipop taking all the attention away from Emperor Dynasty's VR games. I'm dying of laughter."
"Thunderbolt Entertainment is in the same exhibition hall as many smaller companies. Looks like Thunderbolt Entertainment's status has risen since the organizers are paying so much attention to them."
"Which one should we go see first?"
"Emperor Dynasty Entertainment's girls are definitely the prettiest. Zen Entertainment's in-game activities are pretty good too. But Chen Mo's is definitely the most surprising. I'm struggling. "
"But I don't think Chen Mo showed up at the exhibition last year. I wonder if he'll come this year."
"Let's go take a look."
Many players' first choice was still Emperor Dynasty Entertainment and Zen Entertainment's booths. Since Thunderbolt Entertainment didn't have many games, and Chen Mo didn't even come to last year's exhibition, there wasn't anything particularly interesting.
Of course, there were some hardcore fans of Chen Mo that went straight to Thunderbolt Entertainment's booth.
The players were shocked when they arrived at Thunderbolt Entertainment's exhibition hall. Why were there so many people?
The entire exhibition hall was packed to the brim with people. Most of them were squeezing towards Thunderbolt Entertainment's booth, while the other smaller companies were ignored. Only the players who couldn't get in would look at the booths of the smaller companies.
"What's going on? Why are there so many people? "
"My god, it's so crowded!"
"Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me!"
"Don't excuse me, can't you see everyone's here? Why are you in such a rush? "
"Eh, my god, who stepped on my foot?"
"Sorry, I was tiptoeing to look at the stage."
"Seems like Chen Mo is here."
"Damn, is Chen Mo that popular?"
"But there doesn't seem to be much on Thunderbolt Entertainment's booth. There aren't many showgirls either, just a bunch of computers and VR gaming pods."
"Hmm? But these showgirls … "
The players who couldn't squeeze through were puzzled. Why was it so popular?
Looking from afar, there wasn't anything particularly sensational on the stage. The big screen was still dark, and there were no animations or game CGs. The PC and VR experience areas didn't seem to be open yet. There were a few showgirls, but they were all working as staff to maintain order. There were far fewer showgirls than the other gaming companies.
Many players were asking why everyone was squeezing in.
The gamers' questions were quickly answered.
Chen Mo came on stage and took the microphone, "Hello everyone."
The players in the front row waved at Chen Mo. Evidently, Chen Mo was quite charismatic in their eyes.
"Ah, I've finally seen Chen Mo in real life!"
"When can I get your autograph?"
"Tell me, are there any new games?"
"Can we play the new heroes in League of Legends?"
Some were greeting him, some were asking for autographs, and some were asking about this and that. It was quite a lively scene.
Chen Mo signaled for the crowd to quiet down, "Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me. There are two important events today. The first is to announce the new heroes and patch of League of Legends, and the second is to announce a brand new VR game. Apart from that, we'll be opening up League of Legends and the new game in the PC and VR experience areas.
"Oh, and one more thing, all five members of NRG are here. There will be an exhibition match in a bit, so you can all look forward to it.
"Don't rush, everyone will have a chance to experience it. Please be courteous, queue up, and listen to the staff. Those who don't have a seat, don't worry. The event will be broadcasted live, so those who can't get in the queue can just watch the screen.
"Alright, please wait for a moment, we'll be watching a promotional video."
Chen Mo left the stage after finishing his sentence.
The players who had already calmed down were now in an uproar. Chen Mo's words contained a lot of important information, there was no way they wouldn't be in an uproar!
There was a new patch of League of Legends and a new hero to try out.
NRG was going to have an exhibition match.
There was also a brand new VR game!
How could this be?
Many players couldn't wait any longer and were trying to squeeze forward. Fortunately, the staff were trying their best to maintain order, and most of the players were well-mannered, so the situation didn't get out of hand.
The outermost players could only look at the crowd in front of them and sigh. There was nothing they could do, they couldn't squeeze in at all!
They could only look at the screen.
The crowd quieted down as the CG started playing on the screen. Everyone was looking up at the screen.
Three soldiers were moving forward in the quiet forest.
They seemed to have heard something and looked around, trying to locate the enemy. Above them, a black figure was observing their position through the gaps between the leaves.
A cold light flashed as a close-up of a ninja mask appeared on the screen. His eyes glowed red, then the black figure jumped down from the tree!
"Swoosh!"
A cold light flashed as a giant shuriken nailed a soldier to the tree.
After a while, the other two soldiers finally reacted and saw the true face of the person who came.
It was a ninja with an iron mask, brandishing the twin blades on his arms.
The two soldiers roared as they charged at the ninja, but the ninja broke the swords in their hands and turned into a shadow, cleanly taking care of the two enemies.
The original promotional video, Calamity: Instant Shadow Prison Formation, was a simple animation style. This time, Chen Mo completely inherited the storyboard of the previous promotional video and made it into a high definition version.
This video made the players excited. Obviously, everyone could see that this was a hero who could control shadows. Moreover, his style was different from the traditional Japanese ninja. He had made many changes and innovations.
