They’re all reborn, what’s wrong with being a little more almighty?

Chapter 140: Grandma doesn’t love me, my uncle doesn’t love me, and there are still people who kick me!

After the game, the organizer did not hold any dinner party, and simply asked the contestants to go back to their homes and find their mothers.

There were several reporters at the scene, and they made an appointment with Zhang Wei for an exclusive interview. After confirming the interview time, Zhang Wei returned to his dormitory in Berkeley.

I turned on my computer and logged in to QQ. Several messages popped up, including those from Li Xiaofeng, Su Hao, xiaOt, and the team leader who had not obtained a visa. They were all asking if Zhang Wei had won.

Li Xiaofeng even made a series of call calls, asking "Are you there" every ten or twenty minutes? The last message was sent ten minutes ago.

Zhang Wei looked at his watch. It should be early morning in China at this time. According to the normal schedule of e-sports players, they should be sleeping at this time.

"Looks like you've been waiting for me all night!" Zhang Wei sighed and decided to make an international long distance call to Li Xiaofeng.

When the call was connected, Ge Ge's urgent voice sounded: "Did you win?"

"Won!"

"champion?"

It’s late night in San Francisco, but dawn is dawning in China on the other side of the ocean.

As for the e-sports project, not to mention the establishment of an association, even the management is handed over to a computer repair department.

……

"Zhang Wei wins! He wins the championship!" Ge Ge's roar sounded in the receiver, followed by the cheers of others around him.

Even the General Administration of Sports, which is in charge of e-sports in China, only found out about Zhang Wei’s WCG victory after listening to the team leader’s report.

"champion!"

The department responsible for managing e-sports in the General Administration of Sports is the Information Center of the General Administration, which is equivalent to the department in each unit responsible for pulling network cables, repairing computers, and maintaining websites.

As for the TV media and paper media that were the mainstream at that time, there was no action at all. As for traditional media, who would care about a game player!
Therefore, the fact that Zhang Wei won the championship only spread among the circles of e-sports enthusiasts and did not attract widespread attention.

A department that repairs computers requires power but no power, and no funds. Moreover, its main business is repairing computers and maintaining websites. How can it have so much energy to take care of e-sports matters.

At this time, the news that Zhang Wei won the championship had spread to the country through the Internet.

The e-sports environment in China has always been relatively miserable, and the survival of Chinese e-sports players was also very difficult at the time. And this WCG world champion, for e-sports players, is undoubtedly a new seedling bred in a barren land, representing the hope of Chinese e-sports!
"When you come back, lend me the gold medal!" Ge Ge's voice sounded again.

Let’s not talk about big sports like basketball and football. Even qigong, dragon and lion dances are managed by special associations under the General Administration of Sports.

What's more, the approval and publication of games is under the jurisdiction of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and the management of games is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Culture. The General Administration of Sports has nothing to do with this.

If it were left to future generations, the waves caused by this champion would not even be a hot search!

Then other websites related to the Internet or games began to reprint the news, such as Zhongguancun Online, 17173, Star Nomad, etc.

Brother Gai should be in the club now. It sounds like the other members of the club are still awake and waiting for news!

At that time, Sina was the official partner of WCG. It was the first to get the first-hand news from the United States, and then published the news around 8:30 in the morning.

"No!" Zhang Wei refused without hesitation, and then continued: "Next year's WCG Singapore, you can earn it yourself!"

This also shows that e-sports is really insignificant in the eyes of the officials. Many people even think that e-sports is Internet heroin and should not exist.

Next, the Sina Sports section and the Internet section also reprinted the report.

E-sports news is definitely not qualified to be on the front page. It only made headlines on the Sina gaming section.

This is the situation of e-sports in China. Although it is called a sports event, the approval and management rights do not belong to the General Administration of Sports. It basically relies on the support of private enthusiasm.

If the live broadcast industry does not gradually rise in the future, domestic e-sports practitioners will still have to continue to use love to generate electricity.

When the director of the General Administration Information Center received a report that a Chinese player had won the championship in San Francisco, the director then remembered that there was such a thing as WCG!

"I remember a few days ago, didn't the team leader say that he had never passed a visa to the United States? At that time, he wanted the General Administration to come forward and coordinate with the US Embassy, ​​so that I could find an excuse to get through. How could I win the championship? "

The director scratched his forehead and searched the Internet. Sure enough, he found relevant news on Sina's website.

The picture accompanying the news showed Zhang Wei standing on the podium wearing a national flag and a gold medal around his neck.

"Not to mention, this game-playing competition looks pretty decent. There is a podium and a gold medal. Eh? It's China's first formal event gold medal. It can be regarded as a zero breakthrough in gold medals." The director thought for a moment. , called his men.

"Xiao Zhang, here is a report about our Chinese players winning the championship in the WCG World Finals. After all, e-sports is the business scope of our department. Now that someone has won the championship, we have to report the good news to the leader. You can write it later. Give me the materials.

In addition, we cannot lag behind in publicity work. Although e-sports is not well-known, it has still achieved results after all! You should contact "Sports Daily" and ask them to send a report! "

E-sports is a project that grandma doesn't care about and uncle doesn't love, but if you really achieve results and win a world championship, you still have to take credit.

Although Zhang Wei didn't do anything to win the WCG, his boss didn't know that I didn't do anything!
Putting the news of winning the championship in front of the leaders, isn’t that my work achievement!
Besides, the national policy does not promote things like playing games. If I don’t hinder you, it will be a big help.

2004 is the year of the Olympic Games. After the Olympic Games ended in August, there were almost no competitions in the next month or so, and there was not much sports-related news. Therefore, the news of Zhang Wei’s WCG victory can be considered as enough space. In the "Sports Daily", the news of Zhang Wei's victory was not only reported, but also attached with a photo.

After all, "Sports Daily" has an official background. After "Sports Daily" reported, other mainstream media finally began to reprint "Sports Daily" reports.

Although many newspapers just gave me a piece of tofu, it still gained some media visibility.

……

In the dormitory, the oil man played with Zhang Wei's WCG world championship gold medal.

"I haven't seen you for a weekend, and you actually won a gold medal! I don't even see you playing games!"

"You are usually busy playing golf, so you can't see me when I'm playing games." Zhang Wei said with a smile.

The oil guy continued: "By the way, I'm going to buy some mouse pads tomorrow. Can you sign them for me? I'll take them back to Saudi Arabia as gifts."

"How many people play games there?" Zhang Wei asked.

"Many young people like to play games. It's not easy for us in Saudi Arabia to find jobs. It's boring to stay at home, so we just play games!"

Saudi Arabia is rich, and three-quarters of its jobs are given to foreign workers. If locals don't want to work, they can just stay at home and enjoy welfare.

Moreover, the entertainment industry in a country like Saudi Arabia is definitely not very developed. Even a KTV is hard to find, so don’t you have to stay at home and play games?

Saudi gamers also have a major characteristic, which is their high level of participation in e-sports. Nearly 90% of players have participated in e-sports competitions. The atmosphere that focuses on participation is very strong.

The oil man paused and then continued: "I have a cousin who is a deep game enthusiast. He is very similar to you and has good academic performance. However, he doesn't like foreign countries, so he has always stayed in Liad to go to school. "

"Your cousin, is that your uncle's child? Isn't he a prince? Will he be a king in the future?" Zhang Wei asked immediately.

"He is a prince, but we have thousands of princes in Saudi Arabia! As for whether he can be the king, it's hard to say. But his father has a chance to be the crown prince. He is my grandfather's 25th son."

"I remember that the succession system for the Saudi throne is from brother to brother, right? Your 25th uncle should be considered young. As long as he lives long enough, he will definitely be in line!"

"The choice between brother and brother also depends on their strength. If the background and strength are insufficient, it is impossible to become the crown prince. The current king is my 6th uncle. He and my 25th uncle were born to the same mother. They His mother comes from the Sudri family, and his grandfather is the emir of the Sudri family, a very powerful family in Saudi Arabia.

If he had the support of the Sudri family, he would definitely have the chance to become the crown prince. It's just that the old princess of the Sudri family gave birth to seven sons in total. The other sons also have the support of the Sudri family and are older than him. They are all capable candidates for the future crown prince.

Before him, there were Uncle Sultan, Uncle Rahman, Uncle Nayef, and Uncle Turki, all born to the old princess. They were all ahead of Uncle Salman in the line of succession, except for these few. Only after both uncles have passed away can the Sudri family fully support Uncle Salman. "

"Uncle Salman? You mean, your 25-year-old uncle is called Salman?" Zhang Wei was shocked.

"Salman means calm in Arabic. Is there anything wrong with this name?"

"No problem. I just think it's very smooth." Zhang Wei shook his head.

Speaking of which, this prince’s father’s name is Salman, and he also likes e-sports. He can’t be that person!

Thinking of this, Zhang Wei simply took out the mouse: "Giving a mouse pad is so insincere, if you want to give it away, just give it a mouse!"

Then Zhang Wei signed the words "ZW Zhang Wei" on the mouse and added: "Your Highness, may Allah grant you peace!".

……

In the suburbs of Beijing, there is a large courtyard, with the words "Moral Education Academy" hanging on the door of the courtyard.

For those who don’t know, when they see these words, they will definitely think that this is an education and training institution.

The person in charge of the school is named Wang Zhiqi.

Early in the morning, Wang Zhiqi returned to his office after checking the room. At this time, today's newspapers had been delivered and placed on his desk.

So Wang Zhiqi brewed a pot of tea and read today's newspapers.

One of the pieces of news, the size of a piece of tofu, caught Wang Zhiqi’s attention.

"Chinese players win the WCG championship for the first time? I know WC is the World Cup, but what kind of competition is WCG? Is it also football? Can Chinese football win the world championship? Is there such a rare thing?"

Then Wang Zhiqi began to read the contents carefully:
"The WCG2004 E-sports World Finals held in the United States came to an end. Chinese player Zhang Wei defeated Dutch player Grubby with a score of 3-2 in Warcraft 0 and won the title of world champion. Winning the first piece for China Gold medal for official WCG projects.”

After reading this report, Wang Zhiqi frowned fiercely.

"Playing games and having world competitions? And having world championships? And also bringing glory to the country? Bullshit!"

The next second, Wang Zhiqi's expression became extremely gloomy.

Wang Zhiqi couldn't help but take out his pen. Then he would write an article to criticize this game-playing competition!
E-sports is a thing that my grandma doesn't care about and my uncle doesn't love. It's already pitiful. It's hard to win a prize, but someone still kicks me.
