Chapter 125 - Comedian Ended up Videogame Designer
Chen Mo caught a cab to his destination after getting off the train.
This competition was called the Fantasy Cup. Obviously the name was named after the officials, Fantasy Gaming Platform. Not only were they a distribution platform, they were way ahead of other companies in terms of gaming tournaments as well.
Although Chairman of Fantasy Gaming Platform Ding Xing knew nothing about video game design, he had a good eye for the development of the gaming industry.
Chen Mo had a little bit of beef with Fantasy Gaming Platform as he took some of their user base when Thunderbolt Tabletop directed some of their players to Fantasy Gaming Platform.
But as they say, temporary enemies mean forever profits. There wasn’t any reason why Ding Xing would give up this opportunity given Warcraft was doing so well. If he could work with Chen Mo, there was no reason for him to burn the bridge.
Legion Conquest’s professional scene was moving along quite smoothly as most of the bigger esports clubs had plans to acquire pro players. However, the release of Warcraft put a wrench into the plans. Many clubs have decided to reassess the situation before acting as there very well could be only one survivor from this altercation.
Wouldn’t it be sad if the game was dead two months after the Legion Conquest team was acquired?
As Warcraft had its own ranking and replay system, the different skill levels were very clear cut. There were even a few pro players who had gained popularity on a replay website, so the requirements for hosting a tournament were already met.
“Mr Chen Mo, you’re pretty good at cracking jokes!” Zhang Yang said laughing.
Chen Mo waved his hand, “No no no, I thought we’ve talked about this Mr. Chen Mo thing before this!”
“What could I call you by?”
Chen Mo replied, “Maybe, Designer Chen, I’m a videogame designer afterall.”
The viewers were laughing, weren’t they supposed to commentate? This feels like a comic sketch!
Zhang Yang was speechless, “That’s still undermining your efforts. Alright I’ll just call you Mr Chen Mo.”
Chen Mo replied, “That was just a joke that’s supposed to ease up the atmosphere. It’s also my first time commentating today. I’m honoured to be paired with Mr Zhang Yang.”
The chat couldn’t help but complained, “How could this be your first time? You must’ve done this before, you seem so at home with this!”
