In the evening, the two games of the GPL League on Saturday were played.
After the interview, the host introduced tomorrow's schedule, and then the audience began to leave the venue in an orderly manner.
The two official commentators breathed a sigh of relief. Today's work was finally completed and they could go back and have a good rest.
I have to say that explanation is actually a laborious job. It seems simple and just requires lip service, but in fact there are many ways to do it.
The whole process of commentary must be highly concentrated. You cannot miss too many details or make too many slips of the tongue. Sometimes you have to go back after get off work to catch up on some game knowledge, surf the Internet to learn about the latest memes, and if necessary, cooperate with the official filming. For some other programs, this day's working time easily lasts for more than ten hours.
However, before the two commentators had time to take off their headsets, they heard the director say: "Don't leave yet, come to the lounge, Mr. Zhao has something to say."
The so-called Mr. Zhao must be Zhao Xuming of Longyu Group.
Both commentators were stunned for a moment.
They know Zhao Xuming, but they don't really meet or interact with him much. Because Zhao Xuming's level is too high, even if there is anything, he will talk to the director and editor of the ICL league project team, and then the director will relay it to the commentators.
This time Zhao Xuming personally met with them for a meeting. What does this mean?
The two of them came to the lounge backstage with a feeling of apprehension.
However, as soon as they entered the lounge, they were stunned.
There are so many people!
Not only the two of them, but also all the other commentators who are not scheduled to be on duty today are here.
In addition, all the staff responsible for OB and back-end data analysis were also present at the scene, and the entire lounge was full of people.
Obviously, Zhao Xuming had already found these people while the game was still in progress.
Such a big battle left everyone a little confused. They didn't know what Mr. Zhao was going to do, and they were very worried.
Zhao Xuming's face didn't look very good. He clicked the remote control and a game video began to play on the big TV in the lounge.
The two commentators were stunned for a moment. Isn't this the game we just finished commentating on today?
But if you listen carefully, you will find that this is not the version they explained at all!
Obviously, this is a video of Rabbit Tail's live commentary on today's game.
Zhao Xuming didn't speak, and others naturally didn't dare to make a sound. The entire lounge was very quiet, and only the voice of Tuwei's live broadcast commentary echoed throughout the conference room.
"We have seen that the official screen gives a tower winning rate of 74%, but in fact this team has several sets of early tactics, which cannot be generalized..."
The commentators didn't understand Zhao Xuming's intention at first, but as they listened, they began to hear that something was wrong.
Obviously, Tuwei Live’s commentary is much more professional than them!
For the same data, their analysis is too superficial, but the commentators on Tuwei Live can always dig out more information through other data.
And the gap between the two sides does not end there, from early tactical predictions, to BP, to detailed explanations during the game... It can be said that the two commentators today were completely blown away by the commentators from Rabbittail Live!
The faces of the two commentators couldn't help but become ugly.
When Zhao Xuming played the commentary video of Tuwei Live in front of so many people, it was almost like being executed in public. Who can withstand this!
Too unlucky!
What’s even more frightening is that the commentary video from Tuwei Live Broadcast has probably spread all over the Internet, and now all ICL league viewers have seen the comparison between the two sides’ commentary!
The other commentators also lowered their heads, feeling both happy and worried at the same time.
Fortunately, I didn't happen to be in the lineup today, so I wasn't the first one to step into the trap and get whipped to death in front of everyone. What I'm worried about is that my level is about the same as the two commentators today. When I go up to explain,
, they will be hung up and beaten as well!
Not only the commentators, but also the OB and the backend data support team all understood the intention of Mr. Zhao’s move.
Does it mean that all the blame is on the commentators and they are fine?
Of course not!
The OB on Tuwei's live broadcast carried out OB according to the requirements of the commentator. If the commentator wanted to see both sides farming, the OB would place the main camera in the jungle areas of both sides.
Therefore, there is a big difference between Tuwei live broadcast and official OB.
Even when the MVP was given at the end, the MVPs given to both sides were different.
In short, Tuwei Live Broadcast is indeed much better than the official one, and this is good in all aspects, from commentary to OB to data support, it is basically a state of comprehensive crushing.
It wasn't until all the games were played that Zhao Xuming pressed the pause button on the remote control.
"Now do you understand why I want to meet with you?"
"You are the official commentator, and you were supposed to be the highest level, but you were beaten down by the unofficial commentator of a live broadcast platform!"
"Now the public opinion on the Internet has exploded. A lot of viewers have gone to the official live broadcast rooms of various live broadcast platforms. It's embarrassing!"
"You are all professionals and have rich working experience in this industry. How could it be like this? Is there a problem with your ability, your attitude, or both?"
Zhao Xuming's series of rhetorical questions stunned everyone.
Several commentators silently cried out for injustice.
Can you blame us?
Isn’t it funny if you ask us to compare our game understanding with the current professional players of Team FV’s second team? We are all only at platinum and diamond levels!
Compared with the game understanding of those professional players, there is a gap of several Pacific Oceans.
And we have been explaining this way since the beginning of other games, so there is no problem? We go to and from work conscientiously every day, practice our words, and understand the game knowledge. We are already working very hard, okay?
Why is it now as if we are a bunch of trash waiting to die?
But I think so in my heart, but I dare not say it.
They had also watched the commentary video from Tuwei Live, and had to admit that there was indeed a clear gap between the two sides.
Now we can neither admit that there is a problem with ability nor that there is a problem with attitude. No matter which one it is, there will be big problems if we admit it.
So what exactly is the problem?
In the end, the director was more tactful and stood up and spoke: "Mr. Zhao, please be patient and don't be impatient."
"Well, I have to admit that there is still a certain gap in game understanding between our commentators and the two professional players hired by Tuwei Live. We have to admit this."
"After all, our commentators have a professional background and are relatively good at commenting in terms of professionalism. In terms of game understanding, they are not as specialized as professional players."
"But this problem is not difficult to solve. We just need to add some professional players to the normal commentary schedule."
"Like the Tuwei live broadcast, the official commentator controls the rhythm, and professional players or former professional players serve as guest commentators to provide professional analysis. If the two are coordinated, similar effects can be achieved."
The best attitude is definitely to appease Zhao Xuming and then provide the official commentary for the ICL League.
Although these commentators are somewhat inferior in their understanding of the game and cannot compare with professional players, it is impossible to expel them all, right?
This is because these commentators are all recruited through a unified process. They all have a professional background. They have also commented on other games before commentating on the ICL league. They are all well-known figures in the circle. There may be intricate relationships behind them.
, you can open it as soon as you say it.
Zhao Xuming obviously has no intention of opening all these explanations. What if the newly recruited group of people are not as good as them?
Therefore, Zhao Xuming's anger this time was just to give the ICL League's directors and commentators a slap in the face, so that they would have a sense of crisis and be able to think of ways to improve their own level.
The official commentary of the ICL League is not as good as the unofficial commentary of Tuwei Live. This is outrageous and unacceptable.
Since the director has already expressed his position, there is no need to be too harsh.
Zhao Xuming said: "All the commentators, when I get back from get off work every day, I will watch the Tuwei Live commentary from beginning to end, review it, and improve my understanding of the game!"
"In addition, the official real-time data APP will be completed soon, and it should be launched on various platforms one after another. I hope it can improve the situation of viewers being diverted on various platforms."
"The other thing is to seize the time and go to various clubs to find some professional players who have a deep understanding of the game and decent eloquence. As special guests for commentary, this matter must be implemented as soon as possible."
Then, Zhao Xuming turned to his assistant and said, "Keep an eye on this matter and report to me at any time."
The assistant nodded: "Okay, Mr. Zhao."
…
night.
Ding Gan, the owner of the SUG E-Sports Club, has just finished a dinner with some friends and is going back to have a good sleep.
As a result, as soon as I got in the car and squinted for a while, my phone rang.
I picked it up and saw that it was the call from Manager Yang of my club.
"Mr. Ding, I have something to report to you."
"The director of the ICL League just called and asked if there are any professional players in our club who want to transition into commentary. He said that there is a good opportunity now."
Ding Gan was a little confused: "Didn't you recommend Lao Zheng before?"
Manager Yang reminded: "No, Mr. Ding, when we recommended Lao Zheng, it was Mr. Pei who came to ask for him. He was recommended to Tuwei Live. Now he is the official commentary team of the ICL League."
Ding Gan said: "That should be gone! Our main players are playing well, and the substitutes and youth training players must also train seriously. Lao Zheng is older, so let him try to be a commentator. Others
It’s suitable for everyone.”
Manager Yang said: "Xiao Gao is not bad, he has good eloquence and is quite good at handling things."
Ding Gan was not happy at the time: "That won't work. Although Xiao Gao is a substitute now, he has just turned eighteen and is in his prime. He will soon be mentioned in the first team. If he is sent to be a commentator, it is not a waste.
Is it done?"
Manager Yang said: "Well, Mr. Ding, I think so too. Then... reject it directly?"
Ding Gan thought for a while: "I can only refuse. Who told them not to come earlier? The ones from Tuwei Live came first. We have already given out the suitable candidates. Zhao Xuming just came. There is nothing we can do." .”
"...Could he not be able to find the right person?"
Manager Yang said: "That's not the case. As far as I know, when Tuwei Live was looking for people, they were only looking for people from the FV team and our team, and other teams didn't ask."
"After all, our two clubs have a relatively good relationship with Mr. Pei."
"If the official commentary team of the ICL League looks for other clubs, they should still be able to find some suitable candidates."
"It's just that these people's game understanding will be slightly worse. After all, the strength and game understanding of the FV team are in the same level now. Our team is in the first level than them, and the other teams are in the next few levels."
Ding Gan said: "That has nothing to do with us."
"Okay, just reply like this, we can't help you."
Chapter completed!
