"Alright, I know everyone must be very interested in Diablo after watching the trailer. I have good news for everyone, and that is that Diablo is almost complete. After the conference, there will be a Diablo game experience, and everyone will be able to experience Diablo for themselves. So I won't waste everyone's time here. Remember to buy our game!" Alan Adekhan came in a hurry and left in a hurry. He only announced a few things about the Blizzard Studio.
But this was the game that caused the biggest sensation in the audience. The trailer was just too cool, especially the scene of the three player classes fighting against an army of tens of thousands of demons. It was so cool that no one would be able to stand up to it.
Many years later, when many players recalled today's scene, they would say that Blizzard's fine tradition as a CG factory had actually started today.
Just a trailer like this was enough to make all the players want to give Diablo a try.
Unfortunately, the press conference wasn't over yet, because our Boss Jia reappeared. Looking at the uninjured, anxious, and angry eyes of the audience, he smiled and said, "I know that everyone can't wait any longer, but isn't everyone interested in the new information about Pokemon?"
"Pokemon!" The players who were anxious immediately shut their mouths. Compared to the new information about Pokemon, everything else was nothing.
"I'm not someone who likes to keep people in suspense. So I'll tell everyone right now. Starting from August 1st, the Daqian Games will be held in Los Angeles, New York, Washington, London, Paris, Berlin, Brazil, Rio de Janeiro, Hua Xia's Didu, Shanghai, Yuzhang, Fusang's Tokyo and Osaka. There will be a total of 12 cities in the world where the Pokemon World Championship will be held."
"All players only need a genuine Pokemon Red and Green Game Cartridge, as well as 20 max level Pokemon in the cartridge, then they will be able to register in all the sub-tournaments around the world."
"Every Substation Tournament will determine a champion, runner-up, and runner-up. Once a player is in the top three of a Substation Tournament, they are not allowed to register for the next Substation Tournament. The champion of each Substation Tournament will receive a reward of 50,000 USD, the runner-up will receive 10,000 USD, and the runner-up will receive 5,000 USD."
"Finally, we will gather the 36 strongest players in the world in Yuzhang, China, which is also the headquarters of Da Qian Games, to participate in the Pokemon Global Finals. The champion will be officially recognized as the world's strongest trainer by Da Qian Games. At the same time, the champion will receive a reward of one million dollars, the runner-up will receive a reward of 100,000 dollars, and the runner-up will receive a reward of 10,000 dollars!"
"At the same time, other players who are ranked will also receive a variety of generous prizes."
"All players can sign up through the Internet, phone, postcard, and other methods. All the registration methods are behind me!" Boss Jia smiled and announced a piece of news that made all the players go crazy.
Pokemon was going to hold a World Championship. This was crazy. It was just a game, but it was going to hold a World Championship like basketball, soccer, and other traditional sports. This was simply unbelievable!!!
In fact, even Yamauchi Pu was shocked by Boss Jia's news. Using a game as a competition tool to hold a World Championship on a World Championship on a World Championship was simply unbelievable.
A World Championship held in 12 major cities around the world would involve tens of millions of USD. But could a World Championship like this break even?
If it was just to promote the game, Pokemon was already popular enough. There was no need to use a World Championship to promote it.
Was Jia Yapeng planning to sell tickets to make money?
But would anyone be interested in a World Championship like this?
Yamauchi Pu was suddenly at a loss. He realized that he didn't understand the game industry anymore. Every piece of news that Jia Yapeng announced today made Yamauchi Pu feel very confused. At the same time, he couldn't predict what was going to happen.
Take the Pokemon World Championship as an example. He really didn't know what kind of changes this World Championship would bring to the game industry. His experience told him that this was a waste of money and a meaningless event.
But for some reason, Yamauchi Pu always had a feeling that Boss Jia had opened a new door for the game industry. And this door was likely to be one of the most important business models in the game industry in the future. This feeling made Yamauchi Pu feel a little restless.
He suddenly wanted to organize a World Championship for Super Mario Brothers. But when he thought about the tens of millions of USD needed to organize it, Yamauchi Pu suddenly felt a little conflicted.
After the announcement of the Pokemon World Championship, it seemed like the press conference was about to end. But most of the players at the scene remembered that Boss Jia said that there were three new pieces of information about Pokemon. The World Championship was only the second piece of information, which was only announced in the middle of the press conference. The third piece of information would only be announced at the end of the press conference.
So the question was, what other interesting news would be announced at the press conference?
Just when everyone was curious, Boss Jia smiled and asked, "Dear PC players, I don't know if you feel that the quality of the computer's graphics is actually very bad when you play the game?"
"Has anyone thought about how to increase the realism of the computer game?"
"Standalone graphics card!" Before Boss Jia could finish answering his own question, he heard a player shout from below.
Well, it seemed that this player was a veteran PC game enthusiast. Otherwise, he wouldn't know about the independent graphics card.
In fact, standalone graphics cards had appeared as early as 1988. However, at that time, standalone graphics cards were developed to allow computers to have more powerful graphics. The standalone graphics cards used for gaming were released in 1993. However, this standalone graphics card did not enhance the graphics too much.
"It seems that many enthusiasts already know about the existence of independent graphics cards. That's right, independent graphics cards can effectively enhance the graphics of PC games. But so far, there hasn't been a graphics card in the world that can enhance the realism of 2D games and 3D games at the same time!"
"And today, we will officially announce that Daqian Games, together with the graphics card company Nvidia, will launch the world's first strategic level super independent graphics card: GTX0000!" Boss Jia announced loudly. At the same time, a man surnamed Huang also walked out from the backstage of Daqian Games.
