Chapter 383(1/2)
On New Year's Day, the Miracle Cup starts.
There are four opening games in total that day.
There are two sessions in the morning and two sessions in the afternoon, with exactly four universities in the north and south.
All four games will be broadcast live online and on TV.
Wu Qi did not agree to Tang Rong's invitation to go to the scene, but watched it with his family in Jinse Palace. In the huge living room, Wu Qi sat with his wife and children.
The sofas, carpets, stools and chairs were all full of people.
The eldest uncle, second uncle, four parents-in-law, Wu’s father, Wu’s mother and others were all present.
There were no outsiders, and everyone was very interested.
Including Wu Ma, a group of female comrades stopped playing mahjong.
"No. 1 basketball, No. 2 volleyball, alternate in this order." Wu Qi said.
"This is good, at least you can watch the game every day." Father Lu said with a smile.
"The most enjoyable thing is to go and see it live," said Father Qiao. "When will we go to the Miracle Stadium?"
"It will be on the 3rd at the earliest," Wu Qi said, "I will make arrangements."
Since the Red Star Cup came out, young and old men in the family have also started playing ball.
Mainly table tennis and basketball. There are basketball courts and stadiums in Jinse Palace.
In table tennis, no one is convinced by anyone, no matter how bad their skills are, everyone is very confident.
When it comes to basketball, Father Qiao and Father Lu are generally recognized as the best players, followed by the second uncle.
This was something Wu Qi didn't expect.
The first basketball game on New Year's Day is between Ludong University and Shanghai Modu University.
Under the live broadcast, the stadium with more than 40,000 people in Ludong was packed to capacity.
The huge display screen kept flashing across the auditorium, and the faces of Tang Rong, Pei Yan and others flashed away. They were sitting in the front row, with the best seats.
The commentator was already in place, and as the intense music resounded throughout the venue, the DJ beat the beat and began to introduce the two teams' requests for support, and also introduced the coaching team by the way.
The Miracle Cup basketball game is different from the Major Super League. It is a more commercial basketball competition, and the basketball game is only one event of the Miracle Cup, but the prize money is richer.
Because of this, the attention is greater and it can stimulate the enthusiasm of the players. At the same time, the changes in the competition system have also prompted adjustments and changes in the establishment of school teams in colleges and universities.
So even if two teams appear, everyone can see that they are not teams from the Super League. Both teams have some fresh faces, and it is obvious that they are stronger.
This new change has already been discussed in the live broadcast room.
As soon as the game started, there was a fierce confrontation.
In the ten minutes of the first quarter, the two teams scored more than fifteen points.
The opening is very eye-catching, with many wonderful shots, which makes people addicted to watch it.
Wu Qi and his family did not miss the two games in the morning.
During lunch, everyone was still discussing.
"Compared to the Super League, the school team in the Miracle Cup performed better!" Dad Wu said with a smile.
"I think so too." Father Qiao asked, "How is this done?"
"The main thing is that Red Star Sports and the competition league have a greater influence," Wu Qi said. "We supervise the selection of the school team to ensure that no one takes the back door. At the same time, we adjust the competition system and relax some competition standards, but we are very strict with the criminals. In the end
It’s just that the bonuses are rich.”
Supervising school team selection is important, even though it may seem like a formality.
But in fact, this is Red Star Sports emphasizing that talent is more important than anything else.
Only if your physical condition is up to standard can you enter the school team. There is no point in stuffing money into it.
It’s not just people who are good-looking and can attract attention.
As for the issue of competition scale, it is a matter of opinion.
What Red Star Sports and the competition alliance have reached a consensus is to ensure the fairness of the game.
In terms of whistleblowing, if there is a mistake, if it is not compensated in the first game, it will be compensated in the next game. These school team coaches and others have already been angry.
Therefore, during the game, both sides will let go and focus on the game without worrying too much about penalties. In this way, the game will naturally look more exciting.
As for the rich bonuses, most of them are in the school, and they can only be obtained by winning the ranking. However, due to the high attention, the Red Star Sports Association signed contracts with some school teams.
Basically, as long as you can play and maintain playing time for about two quarters, you will receive a bonus. This money will be paid directly to the card by Red Star Sports and has nothing to do with the school.
Although when discussing the competition system, it was said that school team players cannot accept endorsements and advertisements privately, and bonuses and peripheral income will be given to the school, with the exception of Red Star Sports activities.
Moreover, in terms of image rights, Red Star Sports has obtained some benefits for the school team students, so basically as long as they can appear in the live broadcast and can play for twenty minutes, the school team members will get money. Although the money received per game is not much,
But one hundred and eighty games is enough.
"Bonuses are very important. Although not everyone plays for money, if you pay, you must be rewarded. Otherwise, just honor will not be enough." Father Wu said.
"It's just like the Red Star Cup." The uncle laughed. "When the Red Star Cup came out, didn't it also spark a debate about which was more important, honor or money?"
"They are all important." Father Lu said, "Since it is a business league event, it is natural to talk about money. Just because you are a student, you cannot think that talking about money will have an impact. That is a hooliganism."
"That's right!" Everyone nodded.
This is not only the opinion of a few people, but also the mainstream voices outside.
Interest and honor can coexist and will never be in conflict.
That's why it attracted so much attention after the Miracle Cup appeared.
Even though the Major Super League strongly protested and believed that there were overlapping aspects of the competition, it did not cause any splash. In terms of influence alone, the Major Super League simply cannot compare with the Miracle Cup.
It is now recognized that the Miracle Cup is the top commercial league in the country, while the Super League has fallen to the second tier in the country, and cannot match it in terms of attention or fame.
After the New Year's Day competition ended, there was a huge discussion on the Internet.
Red Star Sports Report also went online on this day, using various channels to start reporting behind-the-scenes news about the event. Various photos and videos were reprinted by major media.
The Miracle Cup became an instant hit and became a competition that attracted national attention.
January 3rd, Miracle Building.
The speed car stopped on the balcony, the door opened, and Sister Yi Hong walked out.
"I came here because I wanted to watch the game with my family." Wu Qi looked at her, "What's the matter that we have to talk about here?"
"Two things," Yi Hong looked at him, sat down and said, "one is a private matter. Regarding the oral liquid, I need some quotas, at least thirty, is that okay?"
"This involves nearly 100 billion, can eldest sister come up with it?" Wu Qi asked flatly.
"There is no need for cash transactions," Sister Yi Hong said, "We can make an exchange."
"Resources? These are the only things I lack now." Wu Qi said thoughtfully, "Your family and Shen Xiaobei's family are not involved in these fields, so you are asking for it for others?"
"That's right," Sister Yi Hong didn't hide it, "I'm doing the transaction for Kyoto. This is a private matter as well as a business matter. Since the oral liquid has been proven to be effective, of course it cannot be delayed any longer."
"I understand." Wu Qi nodded, "The transaction is okay, and I can even get more oral liquid, but I have to come to Miracle Hospital. This is a prerequisite."
"Do you know what you are talking about?" Sister Yi Hong looked at him, "One day of physical examination and three days of observation. Do you think the elders can stay in Miracle Hospital for four days?"
"Then there's nothing we can do." Wu Qi spread his hands, "I can't make any guarantees after leaving Miracle Hospital, and who knows whether you will study the oral liquid after you traded it?"
"Is there no room for negotiation?" Yi Hong asked with a frown.
"I think the elders can come to Yuzhang for inspection," Wu Qi said, "What does it matter if it takes a few more days to inspect? Moreover, Miracle Hospital is not a dragon's den or a tiger's den. On the contrary, they have developed many new drugs and many health products. It is completely
You can get the honor of inspection.”
"I can't decide. I will report it." Yi Hong said helplessly, "The first thing failed, and the second thing is business. You won't let me down, right?"
"That depends on what happened." Wu Qi smiled.
"If Longguo wants to develop its own solar power station, it needs to second its engineers, and this time the research and development will take three years." Yi Hong said, "Technology, talent, and materials all need support."
"Free?" Wu Qi asked.
"Of course not. If you need anything, you can ask." Yi Hong said, "Deal."
"I can send a team, but it's impossible to have more people." Wu Qi thought for a while and said, "The technology is fine, but the materials only provide the technology, and there is nothing else we can do."
"That's enough." Yi Hong smiled, "What do you need?"
"Material resources," Wu Qi said seriously, "a large amount of metal raw materials and rare materials."
"Just make a list and send it to me." Yi Hong said easily.
"So refreshing?" Wu Qi raised his eyebrows, "It seems that you have obtained great authority?"
"That's right," Yi Hong nodded, "I am now the deputy director of a certain laboratory. Please take care of me in the future."
"That's easy to say!" Wu Qi smiled, "You came just in time, I need to give you something."
"What?" Yi Hong looked at him curiously.
"Some time ago, Kyoto required the development of some drugs to treat major diseases and disabilities based on oral liquids." Wu Qi said, "Although there has been no progress in this area, it is a bit of an unexpected result, so it is not a surprise! Anyway, it is accumulated.
