Chapter 191 The Hot Explosion of Joy and Old Love(1/2)
With the end of the summer split, all competitions in the league have ended.
There is still some time until the World Championships.
At this time, the teams that have not obtained the World Championship quota have begun to take holidays one after another, while the three teams that have obtained the World Championship quota - EDG, RNG, and WE - are actively preparing for the World Championship.
…
From the outside world, after EDG won the championship, the popularity immediately increased. Everyone is discussing how EDG will perform in the World Championship this year.
"EDG is going to rise this year, it's so powerful."
"Indeed, I won the Spring Championship, MSI, Summer Championship, basically all the championships I can win."
"It's just the S game."
"But let's talk about it, don't be too happy too early, don't forget EDG's top eight curse."
In fact, it’s no wonder that everyone is muttering in their hearts. It’s true that EDG has a strong team every year in the league, and the feeling given to the audience is one word – invincible.
Even in every foreign media competition, EDG is always at the top.
It can be said that EDG, which did not go to the World Championships, is a world-class team in everyone's eyes.
However, once it comes to the World Championship, EDG will become steadily sick and even lose to the wild card teams.
Therefore, even though EDG is gaining momentum this year than in previous years, the audience is still worried.
The only thing that gave them some relief was that Yates, a newcomer, performed so well, completely beyond their expectations.
Some viewers bluntly said: "If EDG still can't get results this year, let God Z go. This team is not worthy of God Z."
The more the discussion, the more popular it becomes.
Moreover, various self-media outlets, like sharks that smelled the smell of blood, rushed to publish articles overnight and began to lose money.
The official self-media is still restrained and does not write anything too outrageous, but some personal self-media have headlines that are as outrageous as this:
"Surprise! The newcomer actually hit the puppy several times?"
"The LPL is about to win the championship, just because the son of luck appears..."
"EDG defeated RNG three to zero, practical teaching of Z God's cannon, like and send with one click"
…
Countless eye-catching articles appear on major platforms, and the number of views is not low.
There is no doubt that Yezi is now the traffic password, a money-making tool for self-media people.
The snowball is getting bigger and bigger, and Yezi's popularity is getting higher and higher. Especially Yezi's words on the award stage, "If there is no torch, I am the only light" directly ignited the enthusiasm of all e-sports people.
For a time, Yezi's popularity was so high that no one could surpass him in popularity.
Originally, the popularity of the factory director and Uzi could be equal to or even suppressed by Ye Zi.
But after the Summer Championship, Yezi's popularity rose again, surpassing the director and Uzi.
On all major social software, Yezi is ranked at the top of the hot searches, and he even has two in the top ten.
Originally, Yezi Weibo's fans had been unable to increase, but with such explosive popularity and Weibo's fan base rising slowly, fans suddenly began to grow explosively.
Ye Zi was very pleased with this and felt that his efforts were not in vain.
So, he sent his first Weibo with emotion, quoting a poem:
"Those who have a will, things will come true. The cauldron will sink the boat, and the hundred and two Qin passes will eventually belong to Chu."
If you work hard, God will not let you down. If you lie down on your salary and taste your courage, three thousand Yue Jia can swallow Wu."
Originally, Ye Zi just posted it casually based on his feelings, but what he didn't expect was...
In just a moment, it was forwarded, ignited, and the comments started to grow crazily.
In the e-sports circle, well-known commentators, e-sports self-media, popular anchors...all @Yezi, and left messages of congratulations at the same time,
PDD: "Ya'eryou, the newcomer is really fierce. Brother, I'm waiting for you to win the championship."
Wawa: "With God Z around, it's time for LPL to shine."
Miller: "After two years of hard work and hard work, let's let the LCK see our strength this year."
Guan Zeyuan: "If I have to choose between Samsung and you, I hope you win."
…
Ye Zi was stunned. He didn't expect that he was just a Weibo, and most of the e-sports circle came.
Not to mention Yezi, Abu was also shocked.
Damn! How can a newcomer who has only been in LPL for less than a year have such influence?
This is still a time when they haven't won the championship. If EDG can win the S championship this year... no, runner-up, or even semi-finals, Yates' status can be improved to a higher level.
Thinking of this, Abu quickly took out his mobile phone and called his boss Ed Zhu.
At present, Yates's value has far exceeded his imagination. No matter what, EDG cannot let Yates go.
…
After the storm was over, Ye Zi couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and at the same time he had a deeper understanding of his own influence.
Now, he is no longer the transparent person in the e-sports circle before. He has grown into a mainstay of the LPL, making the LPL tremble whenever he touches it.
But having great influence is not always a good thing. It means that more people will be watching him, and he cannot make even the slightest mistake, especially for someone like PC. Once caught, his reputation will basically be ruined.
Of course, Yezi is not that interested in women now. Compared with women, he wants to have a good career and broadcast well.
There is a saying that goes well, if you don’t have a woman in your heart, you will be a god when you draw your sword.
Training and live streaming are still the main themes of Yezi's life.
…
The next day, EDG officially released Mad Mike.
As soon as it was released, the number of views increased instantly.
At the same time, Abu announced the income from Yezi's personal account and donated 20% of the income in Yezi's name.
This move instantly won everyone's favor.
Although Yezi said he would donate the proceeds when he first opened his personal account, they all thought it was a joke at the time. Unexpectedly, Yezi actually donated the proceeds.
20% income may not seem like much, but in fact, the monthly income from Yezi’s account is quite high. Even 20% is still a terrifying figure.
"Always support God Z!"
"Awesome, positive energy!"
"This is the quality that e-sports people should have. Other players should learn from it."
"I can only say that God Z is in such a state that he deserves to make money."
As soon as the donation came out, the traffic of Yezi's personal account also skyrocketed, and countless viewers left comments below to express their support for Yezi's positive behavior.
Even Xiao Heizi did not make a fuss about this matter. There has never been a place where the comment area was so harmonious.
Through private messages in the background, countless advertisers expressed their willingness to spend a lot of money to let Yezi’s account help promote it.
The amount given by the advertiser made even Abu's scalp numb when he saw it.
It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Yezi nodded, the money would flow into Yezi's pocket like running water.
It took a while before Abu calmed down and suppressed some messy thoughts.
After all, this is Yezi's account. He is only helping to operate it, and the decision-making power is still in Yezi's hands.
"Yi Zi, there are advertisers..."
Abu found Yezi and told Yezi the general situation. In his opinion, Yezi would agree without hesitation.
This is because the treatment offered by some advertisers is too generous. As long as you simply make a video to promote it, the minimum advertising amount starts at one million.
Even he was very moved by the sight, but to Abu's surprise, Yezi refused without even hesitating.
"This account has no plans to receive ads yet."
"This..." Abu couldn't help but said: "Really don't think about it anymore?"
Ye Zi smiled and said: "No need, I will accept the advertisement later, but not now."
"Why?"
“Advertisers are in too deep of a position, the quality of their products varies, and some software even sells users’ personal information.
Therefore, even if I accept an advertisement one day, I must personally screen it and make sure it is OK before I can accept it."
"leaf……"
Abu looked at Ye Zi blankly, as if he knew him again, "You really impress me."
Ye Zi smiled and said: "A gentleman loves money and gets it wisely, but it's better to have a certain bottom line."
"Okay." Abu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "When you say this, you make me seem like a villain. If you don't want to accept it, just don't accept it. Anyway, the money is not in my pocket."
