Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 929: Small Program For GPL Live-Stream

Logically speaking, even if Bunny Tail’s live-stream data was different from other live-stream platforms, it should not be repeatedly exaggerated like this, right?

Most viewers would only pay attention to the content of the live-stream. They would not pay much attention to the number of people in the live-stream.

Moreover, looking at the wording of these posts and the replies below...

There was obviously a rhythm!

Who did this?

Needless to say, it was most likely done by Zhao Xuming!

That was because there were only a few companies with interest in Bunny Tail’s live-stream. The other live-stream platforms could not possibly buy fake reviewers to defame themselves, right? Their boss was not Boss Pei after all.

As for Bunny Tail Live-stream, they themselves had never hired fake reviewers to boast about their real statistics.

Then, the answer was very clear. Obviously, Zhao Xuming was deliberately setting the pace. It would give the audience a feeling that the ICL league was very popular through the real data of the Bunny Tail live-stream. That would offset the impression that there were too few people in the live-stream!

However, that would also drag down Bunny Tail live-stream!

Pei Qian had nowhere to vent his anger.

Why did companies that had business dealings with him always bring him along?

You can brag about the ICL league, but what has it got to do with my live-stream?

Great, now that all the other live-stream platforms had been AOEed, Bunny Tail’s live-stream was highlighted again!

...

At that moment...

Guangzhou, ZZ Live-Stream Headquarters.

Liu Liang paced back and forth in his office, looking very anxious.

“It’s starting, it’s starting!”

“I knew that Boss Pei would definitely not leave ICL league live-stream alone so calmly after working with Zhao Xuming. He would definitely cause trouble!”

“This time, they’ve completely stripped the unspoken rules of the live-stream circle. It is an indiscriminate AOE!”

“It looks like Zhao Xuming is determined to be in the same boat as Boss Pei. Does he not care about the attitude of our live-stream platforms?”

Liu Liang had been paying attention ever since Bunny Tail Live-Stream won the exclusive broadcasting rights of the ICL league. This time, it was suspected that fake reviewers had appeared online and exposed the data falsification of the live-stream platform. Naturally, Liu Liang noticed it immediately.

Liu Liang did not dare to let his guard down because this matter had a direct relationship with ZZ Live-Stream, Waiwang Live-Stream, and the other live-stream platforms!

Competition between live-stream platforms had always been very intense. In order to attract more attention and create a higher popularity to attract investors’ attention, ‘faking data’ had become the unspoken rule of all live-stream platforms. Everyone was faking data to compete on who could be more ridiculous.

Before this, no one would bother about it.

That was because all live-stream platforms faked data. It was just a little more or less. The audience could not tell which was more popular.

All the live-stream platforms benefited from this. No one would say anything.

However, now that the anomaly of Bunny Tail Live-stream had suddenly appeared, coupled with people with ulterior motives on the internet, it instantly occupied the high ground and launched an inhumane AOE attack on all live-stream platforms!

In Liu Liang’s opinion, Boss Pei was definitely behind this!

That was because Boss Pei was the biggest beneficiary of this matter. At the same time, Boss Pei gave people the impression that he was a strategist.

Boss Pei had bought the exclusive broadcasting rights of the ICL league. He would definitely lose money if he only broadcasted the competition.

How could Boss Pei lose money? He must have other plans after buying the exclusive broadcasting rights of ICL league!

The crazy AOE attack on all live-stream platforms through ‘data making’ was obviously one of the backup plans.

As for Eric and Zhao Xuming, they definitely knew about it.

However, what confused Liu Liang was that Zhao Xu knew about it but did not stop it. Wasn’t he afraid of becoming enemies with these live-stream platforms?

Liu Liang’s assistant said, “Boss Liu, I think Zhao Xuming would be more than happy to do this!”

“The exclusive broadcasting rights of the ICL league have already been sold. He won’t be dealing with live-stream platforms like us for the time being. What’s more, he had a lot of friction with us when he was selling the broadcasting rights of the ICL league previously. I guess he’s just watching the fire from the shore and gloating.”

“What’s more, the more popular Bunny Tail is, the more popular the ICL league would be.”

“Therefore, even though Zhao Xuming stood on Bunny Tail Live-Stream’s side and opposed all other live-stream platforms, it was nothing compared to the benefits he had obtained so far.”

“I think we’re the ones in a bad situation.”

“The ICL league is getting better and better. We have to admit this no matter how unwilling we are. Are we really going to give up on this popularity?”

Liu Liang fell silent.

Indeed, what the assistant said made sense. Now was not the time for Zhao Xuming to beg them to buy his broadcast rights. Instead, the other live-stream platforms need the broadcast rights for the ICL league instead.

No one dared to doubt Boss Pei’s ability. Boss Pei would definitely want to promote Bunny Tail Live-Stream and ICL league as long as he wanted to. It was just a matter of time.

At first, everyone thought that Boss Pei had GPL and would no longer promote ICL. However, what happened in the past few days proved that this was a completely wrong view. Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\

Boss Pei’s attitude was obviously: I want all of them!

Thus, losing the popularity of the ICL league would be bad news for all major live-stream platforms.

Liu Liang pondered for a moment. “Do you think... Boss Pei would distribute the broadcasting rights for the ICL league?”

The so-called distribution was to sell the exclusive broadcasting rights in their hands to others. It depended on their own preferences on who they sold it to and how much they sold it for. Of course, they would also have live-streaming rights, but it was no longer exclusive.

The assistant looked troubled. “I think... It’s difficult!”

“Generally, they would choose to distribute the exclusive rights after they felt that they could not earn money from the exclusive broadcasting rights, or that their expenses were not proportional to the popularity of the exclusive broadcast.”

“But who is Boss Pei?”

“Boss Pei has always been generous in whatever he does. It’s fine if he doesn’t eat, but if he does, he’ll probably become the monopoly. Now, the ICL league is the only exclusive broadcasting content of Bunny Tail live-stream, and it’s still on the rise. He wouldn’t sell it now even if he wanted to sell it.”

“The price would definitely not be low if Boss Pei really intends to sell it. I’m afraid we have to be prepared to spend a lot.”

Liu Liang nodded slightly. “Yes... We have to buy it even if it costs a lot!”

He was filled with deep regret.

If he had known earlier, he would have spent nine hundred thousand yuan to buy the broadcasting rights of the ICL league from Zhao Xuming. Now, he might not even be able to buy it from Boss Pei with three or four million yuan!

However, that could not be helped. No one could predict the future.

Even if someone had told Liu Liang that Boss Pei would spend a huge sum of money to buy the exclusive broadcast rights of the ICL league two weeks ago, he would not have believed it.

Now, it was no longer a matter of whether other live-stream platforms could afford it. It was a matter of whether Boss Pei was willing to sell it.

Liu Liang did not have a good idea either. He could only continue watching.

However, he was also filled with anxiety. That was because the more popular the ICL league was, the less likely Boss Pei would distribute ICL league’s broadcast rights. The more expensive it would be if they were to buy it.

Liu Liang was speechless as well. He could have easily won the broadcasting rights with seven to eight million yuan, but who knew how much money he would have to spend to win it now!

March 9th, Friday...

At Tengda Games...

Chen Yufeng came to the office and saw his colleagues in Tengda Games working nervously.

At the moment, Tengda Games was still divided into two parts. One was in charge of the development of Mission and Choice while the other was in charge of GOG’s daily maintenance and operations.

At the moment, the development of Mission and Choice was coming to an end. They were in the final stage of modification and bug repair. They were mainly polishing the details and were expected to start publicity for next month.

The movie was scheduled for the Golden Week on May 1st. The game would be released officially at the same time that the movie was released.

As for GOG, they were still doing daily updates and maintenance work, including the design of the new heroes, the balance of the version, and so on.

Chen Yufeng could not help but feel emotional. The games department was indeed Tengda’s elite department. Everyone looked very focused and efficient!

The Bunny Tail Live-Stream was still a role model for Tengda Games. He had to study hard.

He went straight to GOG’s current chief designer, Min Jingchao.

Min Jingchao was stunned when he saw Chen Yufeng. “Why are you here personally? Just nice, the functions you wanted are ready. I’ll show you.”

Min Jingchao opened a small program on his computer.

The video was showing the competition that GPL had finished yesterday. The OB, commentary, and post-match segment were all exactly the same as the content on the live-stream platforms.

However, the difference was that the interface below the image displayed some data in the game in real time.

For example, the real-time economy of the players on both sides, the amount of money they had on them, the output and injury of the players on both sides in a team battle, the vision score, and so on.

Apart from that, he could also check the historical data of these teams, including one health, one tower win rate, hero BP rate, and winning rate.

The real-time data of the game and the historical data of the entire team were displayed according to a certain format.

For example, the team battle output was a column, the economic distribution was a fan shape, the economic gap and equipment change were a fold line map, and so on.

What’s more, there were players’ IDs, hero avatars, and equipment icons in these icons. It was obvious at a glance.

These figures had always been in the backend platform, but they had not been released. The director would only release them when he felt that it was necessary. He was mainly afraid that it would affect the audience’s viewing experience.

Now, Min Jingchao arranged for someone to make a simple data interface for Bunny Tail live-stream. That way, the audience could see the content in real time when Bunny Tail live-streamed the GPL competition.

Chen Yufeng was elated. “That’s great! That’s what I want!”

“I’ve been thinking about it previously when Boss Pei wanted to let Bunny Tail live-stream the GPL league. The other live-stream platforms have been broadcasting for so long. The audience would be too lazy to change platforms. Who will come back to Bunny Tail live-stream to watch?”

“With this data, we should be able to attract a relatively hardcore audience.”

“The GPL league will premier on Bunny Tail Live-Stream this Saturday. The ICL league is also the opening ceremony. It would definitely not be appropriate if the number of people in the GPL league were to be too ugly by the ICL league.”

“There should be no problem with this little program! Thank you so much!”

Min Jingchao smiled. “You’re welcome. This is our job. If you have any requests in the future, feel free to ask. We’ll definitely be able to satisfy them!”
