I was reborn and stayed in school to lie down. I really don’t want to roll anymore!

"Mayor You, on behalf of Riot Games, I hope that the group stage and semi-finals of the S4 World Championship can be held in Songjiang City."

The city is well prepared!

Jiang Hao had a simultaneous interpretation headset in his ear, and a comrade had accurately translated Mr. Sessions' words to him.

In comparison, Mr. Sethers was as direct as ever, and his communication intentions were straight to the point.

It can also be heard from here that Cecis is prepared to follow his advice completely.

It is envisioned that the finals will be held in Shanghai, while the semi-finals and other qualifying events will be held in Songjiang City.

"On behalf of Songjiang City, I welcome Riot Games to hold the event in our city."

Both parties were very direct, after their initial intentions were revealed.

All three parties smiled. At least this matter was going as everyone expected and they could continue the discussion.

"Boss Jiang, I heard that you invested in building a special e-sports stadium. I wonder if it can be used as the venue for the regular group matches and semi-finals?"

Could it be that Mr. Cesars misunderstood?

Listening to the translation, Jiang Hao couldn't help but guess.

He mentioned the e-sports stadium over the phone just to highlight the e-sports atmosphere in Songjiang City and its open, inclusive and supportive attitude towards the e-sports industry.

This e-sports stadium was finalized only recently. Although the design drawings have been delivered, construction has not yet officially started.

Thinking of this, Jiang Hao turned his head and glanced at Zhang Jing beside him.

Zhang Jing just shook her head at him with a serious expression.

Just as he expected, it was unrealistic to build an e-sports stadium that could accommodate thousands of people in half a year!

Jiang Hao himself originally expected that it would be completed next year, and he initially expected that it would be officially on the market next year.

Thinking of this, Jiang Hao refused.

"Mr. Seth, this e-sports stadium has just started construction, so I'm afraid it can't be used as a competition venue."

At this moment, Secretary Lu, who was standing next to Mayor You, also spoke up.

Secretary Lu looks to be only one or two years older than Director Qi.

Wearing a suit and shirt, with a refined slicked-back hair, he is considered the most handsome government representative this time.

He was a little serious, of course, it could also be because he was in a meeting.

"As for the competition venue, I think we can choose the newly built Olympic Sports Center in Fengping District."

"It can accommodate up to 50,000 people, and can even be used to host the finals."

The Olympic Sports Center has indeed just been completed.

Jiang Hao missed the S-League venue last year, so it could only be held in the old gymnasium in the city.

Now that the new Olympic Sports Center has been completed, there are many more choices.

The most direct feeling was when my senior sister was scrambling for concert tickets recently.

The number of stars holding concerts in Songjiang City this year has increased several times compared to previous years.

It should be because there are more venues and more tickets can be sold, so the commercial value has increased accordingly.

A large number of stars are already preparing to hold concerts at the Olympic Sports Center.

"OK!"

Seth looked at the two colleagues beside him, nodded, and finally finalized it.

"Mr. Sess, there are a few points I need to emphasize to you in advance."

Once the venue was decided, the preliminary intention of both parties was formally reached.

After that, it is mainly a series of formal procedures, including the specific preparations for the event.

Mayor You also began to emphasize this to Riot Games.

"First, the number of participants for this event, including the overall theme, etc., need to be reported three months in advance."

"no problem."

Upon hearing this, Cesar quickly agreed.

"If a formal event is held, some unregistered programs or activities will be included, which will violate the territorial unity of our country, incite ethnic hatred, and disrupt social order."

"Our municipal committee reserves the right to pursue your sponsoring company, including the co-sponsoring companies."

"Boss Jiang, your company should be a joint organizer, right?"

"Yes."

Although it has not been finalized with Mr. Cethers yet, it can be settled once the city is decided today.

Jiang Hao also agreed to this, wondering what Mayor You meant by bringing up this topic.

However, Mayor You did not let him guess too much. After all, it was an internal meeting and was not open to the media. He also explained a few things to him.

"There are two main points. One is that all domestic and foreign performers need to be reviewed and reported for warm-up performances before the competition. Those with similar tendencies will not be allowed to perform."

At this moment Jiang Hao immediately realized what Mayor You was worried about.

That’s right, the e-sports industry must develop, but the national principles must not be lost.

The personal qualities of the actors, especially their character and inclinations, are important in an event of this magnitude.

Whether it is Mayor You or Jiang Hao himself, they should indeed take this matter seriously.

"The second point is your team. I see there is also a team from the Bay Province, right?"

"Ah."

"When this is broadcasted around the world, it must be unified with our country's prefix at the beginning."

"If you've watched the Olympics or any other sports competitions, you should know what I'm talking about, right?"

"I see."

It seems that Mayor You has really done his homework carefully.

At least these reminders to him are really important.

Jiang Hao had not considered so many things when organizing competitions and events before. Of course, the scale itself was not large, and the communication power was not that strong.

Now that Mayor You pointed it out, he quickly took note.

The bigger the business becomes, the more important it is to avoid crossing the line on these principles.

"Director Cao of our Municipal Sports Bureau will discuss the specific procedures with you all after the meeting."

"I will ask the comrades in the city to reduce as many procedures as possible."

"But I hope you can submit the important materials that require your cooperation carefully."

……

The entire meeting lasted an hour and a half.

Both parties really confirmed their intention in the first 10 minutes.

The next hour or so was filled with instructions on various requirements from the city.

Including the overall detailed plan of the event, there are many things to pay attention to for events with more than 5,000 people.

Many of these requests were the first time Jiang Hao had heard of them.

It’s no wonder that many large-scale events have to be prepared for a long time in advance.

The parties had a meal in the government cafeteria that evening, and Jiang Hao also contacted the leaders led by Mayor You.

These leaders were all extremely polite to him, a young Internet entrepreneur with a billionaire fortune in the city.

The influence that the company Totoro Technology has brought to him is finally beginning to show.

The next morning, Jiang Hao and Mr. Sessions finalized the co-organizer of the S4 Global Finals.

At the same time, the exclusive broadcasting rights for the S5 league were also authorized to him.

That’s right! It’s just one year of exclusive broadcasting rights.

Nowadays, the global influence of League of Legends is increasing, and Riot Games is only willing to negotiate year by year anyway.

The asking price is not low, $280 million a year, including additional event promotion costs.

At the same time, they also require the exclusive broadcasting rights, and then they must authorize Tencent to obtain the broadcasting rights.

However, this is not a big problem for Jiang Hao. The exclusive broadcasting rights are a business that is sure to make money, so he would like to keep them for one more year.

The $280 million fee can now be earned through this event, and the profit is not small!
