soon.
Someone quickly summarized this competition format.
This isn't some kind of qualifying round; it's practically Delta Force's own massive reality show!
This statement quickly gained the approval of countless players.
Other variety shows require writers to design conflicts.
The director needs to arrange the relationships between the characters.
Post-production editing is needed to create suspense.
The Championship Cup requires nothing.
Ranking.
bonus.
Pressure to advance.
In addition, there are two completely random, unfamiliar teammates.
Just put these people in the same game.
human nature.
story.
There's also the entertainment value.
It will naturally emerge continuously.
Just as Jiang Feng once said.
Delta Force is a game that puts human nature to the ultimate test.
The two sides of human nature.
It will be awe-inspiring.
The most terrifying aspect of this competition format is not just the sheer volume of viewership generated by the event itself.
It's about creating stars!
After the second round ended.
A group of ordinary escorts who were previously unknown have now gained their own fan base.
In this frenzy of online traffic.
Those who feel it most directly are naturally the contestants.
Before the second round begins.
The vast majority of them are just ordinary, unknown experts in the Delta region.
Some people have been streaming League of Legends from its earliest days all the way to Delta Force, yet their streams still only have a few dozen viewers.
Some people are technically very skilled, but they don't know how to make videos. They carefully select highlight clips and send them out, but no one pays attention.
Some people have never even done a live stream.
It was only after participating in the Zhengfeng Cup that I registered a live streaming account for the first time at the request of the tournament organizers.
But now.
Everything has changed.
Whenever the official live stream switches to a player's perspective, their personal live stream room and the Zhengfeng APP homepage will be displayed simultaneously at the bottom of the screen.
A brilliant play has just ended.
Countless viewers immediately followed the ID to find it.
search.
attention.
Thumbs up.
Some people even spontaneously created highlight reels and character profiles for the contestants.
The official live stream room has become the biggest traffic source.
The real-time rankings have become a constantly changing list of celebrities.
Zi Mo, the dark horse contestant who ranked first in the second round, had less than 80,000 fans before the competition, despite being among the top ten.
It's not small in size.
But it was far from matching his ability.
Four days later.
The number of fans has exceeded 1.3 million!
The number of people watching the live stream simultaneously surged from a few hundred to tens of thousands.
The gifts I received in just one night were more than I had in the entire previous year.
Several other attackers with exceptionally exaggerated marksmanship also attracted a large audience.
but.
The popularity of the second Zhengfeng Cup does not belong only to the top-ranked players.
The contestant who voluntarily donated military artillery shells and ultimately ranked over 1,700th, gained over 600,000 followers overnight, even though he didn't advance.
His profile page for "Confrontation Escort" was overwhelmed by countless players.
The bookings started that evening and stretched all the way to a month later.
As for the overseas player who ultimately ranked 502nd.
Although they were unfortunately eliminated, they became one of the people who gained the most followers after the second round.
His overseas account gained a million followers overnight.
The newly registered domestic account also attracted hundreds of thousands of Chinese viewers.
Countless overseas players remember his broken Chinese.
I also remember that "Thank you" that came out with a sob in its voice.
Even the two Chinese teammates who fed him were identified by overseas viewers.
Suddenly, a large number of viewers who did not speak Chinese flooded into their live stream.
There were very few Chinese characters visible in the comments section.
Look around.
It's all "Respect" and "Drop".
Players from different countries left the same message in their respective languages.
See you again, man!
Lost the game.
Yet it earned the respect of audiences worldwide.
Some people have become famous for their marksmanship.
Some people are remembered for their leadership.
Some people become famous overnight thanks to the entertainment value of a TV show.
Some people, despite being eliminated, gained even more attention than those who advanced due to a choice made under pressure.
No one dares to say anymore that the Championship qualifying rounds are not entertaining.
The evaluations from major esports media outlets were remarkably consistent.
[A set of rules originally designed solely for selection and escort purposes unexpectedly created Delta's most entertaining competition.]
It's both a competition and a reality show for Delta Force players.
There are no supporting characters here. Every player has the potential to become the protagonist in the next round.
This is precisely what makes the second edition of the Challenge Cup so special.
In traditional competitions.
Audiences usually only remember the champions and star athletes.
But this large-scale outdoor volleyball tournament, which lasted for seven days, gave everyone the opportunity to leave their stories.
As long as the execution is skillful enough.
The personality is distinct enough.
Or make a choice that can move the audience.
Even if the final ranking is not high.
It can still be remembered by the entire internet.
This is perhaps the significance of esports.
In the arena, the winner takes all, and the loser is nothing more than an idiom.
The champion naturally enjoys the glory and honor that belongs to the champion.
But there can only be one champion.
The majority are the disappointed.
How can we then deny other people's pursuit of victory and the brilliance they displayed along the way?
Reaching the summit is certainly glorious.
But along the way, you can appreciate the scenery you see, the friends you make, and the rewards that truly belong to you.
Perhaps it is not even as good as that golden gazelle.
So after the second round ended.
On the Zhengfeng APP, the number of visits to the personal pages of the remaining 500 players all surged.
The top-ranked popular players' escort orders were fully booked for the next few weeks as soon as they opened.
Some young contestants who originally had average incomes have earned more in gifts, business deals, and orders in just four days of competition than they did in the previous six months.
For the first time, they truly realized it.
technology.
It can truly be seen by millions of people.
An ordinary player, previously unknown to anyone, can change their fate within a few days with just their gun.
The second Contenders Cup not only found the esports path for Delta Force.
It also provides these ordinary escorts with a stepping stone to the spotlight.
In addition to the contestants.
The second group to reap huge profits were naturally the 32 overseas broadcasting platforms.
When they purchased the broadcasting rights, each platform was actually quite cautious.
The second edition of the Zhengfeng Cup was indeed very famous.
Jiang Feng's global influence is also terrifying enough.
No matter what you say.
Ultimately, this was just a cup competition organized by a private club.
The official competition hasn't even started yet.
In the qualifying stage, Jiang Feng did not participate in the competition himself.
How many viewers would actually be willing to follow a group of unfamiliar contestants for seven days?
Nobody can say for sure.
Therefore, while the guaranteed authorization fee of 6.86 million may seem substantial, when spread across 32 platforms, it is well within the range of trial and error that all parties can bear.
They were testing the flow rate of the river breeze.
It's also a trial run for Delta's esports path.
The second round wasn't even over yet.
All broadcasting platforms then discovered this.
I won my gamble!
The decisive night of the second round.
The total number of concurrent online viewers worldwide for all official broadcasts of the 2nd Zhengfeng Cup exceeded 30 million!
The cumulative number of viewers exceeded 120 million.
The average viewing time was an astonishing 76 minutes!
The average viewing time was an astonishing 76 minutes!
It not only broke the Delta Sports record.
It even surpassed the main stage of most FPS tournaments in the past year.
