Chapter 117 Predicting the Future

Zhang Yuan was very surprised.

Because he had never considered "predicting President Pei's direction" until now.

Everyone was still trying hard to figure out "what is the deep meaning of President Pei's words," but as for "what President Pei will do in the future," this seemed to be beyond the capabilities of most people.

"Are you sure?" Zhang Yuan asked.

Xiao Peng thought for a moment, "Of course, I'm not absolutely certain, but I think I'm about seventy percent sure."

"President Pei didn't give very clear hints for this Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0, but there are clues to be found in President Pei's layout in other industries!"

"The 'raising Gu' (a process of pitting many poisonous insects against each other until only one survives) tactics of GOG and IOI."

"The main project of DGE e-sports club is GOG."

"Combining these two clues means that President Pei is laying out the e-sports industry. In the near future, some industries will definitely be related!"

"And at this critical juncture, President Pei asked me to make Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0. Although there are no specific requirements, it must be linked to the e-sports industry and mutually successful!"

"Moyu Internet Cafe provides soil for e-sports, and e-sports provides popularity for Moyu Internet Cafe."

"The first stage of the battle between GOG and IOI has basically come to an end. Both sides are frantically updating versions, and GOG has not fallen behind."

"Since President Pei wants to pursue the 'raising Gu' tactic, the battle will never stop there. Next, it will be a real battle."

"At this stage, there are only two ways to fight: either frantically spend money on promotion, using offline Internet cafes and online streamers to expand the player base, or host e-sports events."

"However, the prerequisite for hosting e-sports events is that there are enough players, because players must first understand the game itself before they can understand the competition."

"Based on the above judgments, I think Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0 should be made into this kind of e-sports lifestyle hall!"

Zhang Yuan couldn't help nodding frequently: "Well, that makes sense!"

"However, strictly speaking, this shouldn't be considered a prediction. Everything is still within President Pei's plan."

Xiao Peng nodded: "Well, I know, no one can think ahead of President Pei. There is no doubt about that."

"What I mean is that President Pei's entire plan has just started the first step. Although several steps after that have been planned, he hasn't revealed them to us."

"I predicted the second step that President Pei has not yet implemented, so that the e-sports lifestyle hall model of Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0 can be launched before President Pei launches the second step!"

Zhang Yuan nodded in admiration: "Amazing!"

Xiao Peng led Zhang Yuan inside: "Come on, President Zhang, let me introduce the Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0 model."

"My idea is to turn this place into an e-sports base for professional players."

"For ordinary players, Moyu Internet Cafe 2.0 is enough to meet the basic needs of playing games together. And Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0 should obviously be prepared for those more hardcore players."

"For example, some people organize a team out of love for GOG. In addition to solo queue, they also need to compete with other teams more often and play offline games with similar strong teams."

"This is a very important entertainment activity for them, just like many old men and women go to dance in the square after get off work."

"Then at this time, Moyu Internet Cafe 3.0 is their most suitable choice!"

"Come on, President Zhang, let me introduce the general layout of the entire Internet cafe."

"Basically, all the seats in the entire Internet cafe are designed according to the five-seater model, in order to maximize the needs of teams and five-player games."

"Seats in the lobby are allowed to be mixed, but we will try to ensure that five-person teams are seated at the same table."

"We will hold competitions regularly. At that time, the entire lobby will be the stage for selection, and all participants must participate in the form of a five-person team. Only after our selection will they be eligible to enter other areas."

"The cubicles inside are separate training rooms, which can only be used by teams ranked at the top of our Internet cafe. All members of the team must be present when using them, otherwise they can only sit in the lobby."

"And the innermost and highest position is specially prepared for the strongest team in the Internet cafe. The captain can sit in that highest position. He represents the highest level of our Internet cafe and is worshipped by the players in the entire Internet cafe."

"In addition, the battle room, projector, and the large screen outside in the lobby are all specially used to prepare for events. Regularly held Internet cafe competitions will be broadcast live on the screen. At that time, everyone in the lobby and everyone outside the Internet cafe can watch it simultaneously. Participants can enjoy the attention and treatment of e-sports stars!"

"Although it is a reduced version, it is definitely a very proud thing to be able to enjoy the cheers of the entire Internet cafe and even the onlookers outside!"

Zhang Yuan couldn't help nodding frequently.

He tried hard to imagine the scene of entering the soundproof room and the competition being broadcast simultaneously on the projector and the large screen outside... That would definitely be a very exciting experience.

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but admire: "A stroke of genius!"

"The positioning of Internet Cafe 3.0 is to screen out the most hardcore players from Internet Cafe 2.0. Then these players compete for better positions through formal competitions, and even become the king team of the Internet cafe, accepting the admiration of everyone."

"In this way, an e-sports community culture can be formed. Once this social relationship is established, then for players, this is no longer just a place to surf the Internet and play games, but a social circle..."

"The only drawback is that ordinary players can only be spectators."

It is conceivable that those who like this place are a group of real e-sports players. Everyone should be outstanding in their original environment, but here they are just ordinary people. This may be a blow to them.

Xiao Peng smiled slightly: "President Zhang, I also thought of this and have made some arrangements."

"Did you notice the new ROF host?"

Zhang Yuan looked at the computers in these positions: "Well, it seems that there are more lights than before, and they are more fancy."

Xiao Peng came to a computer host at random: "This host case is specially customized. It is very expensive and has no special advantages compared with other host cases. The only advantage is that there are more lights!"

"Its front, side, back, top... are full of lights."

"These lights all support RGB lighting effect programming, that is to say, they can emit specific lights when the computer program outputs specific instructions."

"So, I went to Min Jingchao and the others and asked them to make a small function for me."

"The GOG game program will output information to the RGB lighting effect program, and then the lights on the host case will light up according to the programmed content!"

"My current plan is that first blood, double kill, multi-kill, consecutive kill, godlike, ranked promotion, etc., each has a unique lighting effect. As long as it is achieved, the host case will emit the corresponding lighting effect!"

"In this way, as long as you see someone's host case emitting a specific lighting effect, you can know that he got first blood, or is godlike in the game, or has been promoted to master or even king rank..."

"That is to say, even if you are an ordinary player, even if the team you organized cannot compete with the vast majority of experts in the Internet cafe, as long as you play here and make wonderful operations, you can attract the attention of others."

"This experience is definitely unique!"

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but marvel: "Wonderful, I didn't expect RGB to have this effect?"

"But... why did you only do GOG and not IOI?"

Xiao Peng spread his hands helplessly: "I did contact Shang Yang Games, but it seems that changing the game program requires the consent of Finger Company, which is more troublesome. Moreover, I don't think it is necessary. President Pei obviously wants IOI to be GOG's sparring partner."

Zhang Yuan was stunned: "Really?"

Xiao Peng nodded: "Of course. Otherwise, why did President Pei establish an e-sports club for GOG, but not for IOI? Obviously, he is more optimistic about GOG in his mind."

"Since IOI is destined to be cannon fodder, and the current IOI market in China is also in the minority, it is better to only consider GOG players."

Zhang Yuan thought for a while: "Well, that seems to be the case. When is the Internet cafe planning to open?"

Xiao Peng: "Next Wednesday, there are still some finishing touches to be completed."

Zhang Yuan nodded: "Okay, when you open, I will bring those boys from the DGE e-sports club over here and play a Bo5 exhibition match to bring you some popularity!"

Xiao Peng was overjoyed: "That's great, those are all king players, it must be good to watch!"

……

At the same time.

"Mr. Liang, coffee." The Resident Manager of the Sloth Apartments put a cup of coffee on Liang Qingfan's table.

Liang Qingfan just said thank you and continued to work on the drawings without even raising his head.

A few days ago, Liang Qingfan officially joined Tengda Group and became the person in charge of Sloth Apartments. Pei Qian also arranged for this junior from the Architecture Department to be the Resident Manager, to assist Liang Qingfan and collect some information.

"Phew... finally almost finished."

Liang Qingfan breathed a sigh of relief.

After more than a week of hard work, Liang Qingfan had roughly finalized the renovation plan for these three buildings, and was very satisfied with it.

After repeatedly checking the renovation plan, Liang Qingfan admired himself a little.

I can modify such a weird floor plan so perfectly. I am really a genius!

This seems to be in line with what President Pei said, that this kind of difficult and weird floor plan can better show the level of the designer!

Liang Qingfan even felt that it would be a waste if this renovation case was not widely publicized.

"Take a few photos?"

"No, taking photos is too simple. It should all be recorded."

"If this kind of renovation case is put on the Internet, there will definitely be many people watching it, right?"

"Well, then I have to find a special photography team."

"Feihuang Studio of Tengda seems to be very professional, right?"

The more Liang Qingfan thought about it, the more suitable it was. Anyway, they are all departments of Tengda Group, so it should be easier to talk to them, right?

Money is not a problem. Anyway, President Pei pays for it. The main thing is that his own people are reliable and the film is guaranteed to be good.

But Liang Qingfan did not have the contact information of Feihuang Studio, and it seemed unreasonable to trouble President Pei for such a small matter.

Fortunately, there is still a Resident Manager here.

"Do you know anyone from Feihuang Studio?" Liang Qingfan asked.

The Resident Manager was stunned: "Uh..."

He hesitated, because he only knew the Resident Manager of Feihuang Studio, but since everyone is an undercover agent, should he say he knows them or not?

After thinking about it, it seems that saying he knows them or doesn't know them is not good. Saying he knows them may expose his identity, and saying he doesn't know them, what if Mr. Liang really has something to delay?

The Resident Manager thought for a while and decided not to answer directly: "People from Feihuang Studio should still be on vacation."

"Vacation? The entire department is on vacation?" Liang Qingfan was a little surprised.

The Resident Manager nodded: "Yes, this is a special regulation within Tengda Group, because Feihuang Studio has made outstanding contributions..."

The Resident Manager told the whole story.

Liang Qingfan nodded: "Oh..."

It's a pity, then there is no way to ask Feihuang Studio to help him shoot, they are not working.

Today is already Friday, and it is almost time to get off work.

It seems that I can only find a professional photographer to help me shoot it tomorrow.
