Chapter 128 Treating Domestic and Foreign Countries Equally
"Have you heard? Starcard is planning to invite a lot of top streamers to participate in the Escape from Chickenkov competition!"
"This game can even host competitions?"
"Oh, it's just an entertainment competition, mainly for promoting the game. Besides, the competition seems to be based on who brings out the most valuable items, so it's purely a matter of luck."
Are any of the streamers I recommended on the list of participating guests?
"Of course! With Egg's reputation, how could he not get an invitation from StarCard? By the way, have you seen his latest ostrich dance? It's hilarious!"
"I've seen it! The person who came up with the ostrich elbow strike dance move is simply a genius!"
On Fengqi Road in Hangzhou, inside a Luckin Coffee shop on the street, a few young people gathered together, discussing the game promotion activities announced by StarCard and the invited guests mentioned in the event announcement.
Escape from Chickenkov can be considered a first-person shooter game, so Starcard invited many streamers of first-person shooters like CF and CS, as well as some established streamers with a large following.
In addition, Escape from Chickenkov has gradually become one of the most popular games recently, generating a lot of discussion among young people.
As a result, the promotional campaign launched by StarCard has naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Of course, while Starcard was enthusiastically organizing the Escape from Chickenkov competition in China, it was also holding the same competition abroad and inviting many streamers.
However, unlike the domestic competition which rented a stadium in Hangzhou as the venue, the overseas competition had to be held online due to various restrictions. This also made it easier for StarCard to invite some streamers and game stars with tight schedules.
Across the street from Ruixing Coffee Shop, inside Mixue Ice Cream Milk Tea Shop, a group of young people were gathered together.
However, they weren't talking about the competitions Starcard held in China, but rather about the streamers and star players Starcard invited abroad. They kept throwing out English names, as if they were very knowledgeable about the competitions of some games abroad.
"If you ask me, Starcard shouldn't have invited that kid Donking. He's just good at gunfights, but not many people abroad actually like him."
"Yeah, and that streamer Lud too. I went to watch his stream, and there were hardly any people in his chat room. His YouTube account was just full of zombie fans."
Two energetic young men with dyed blond hair were drinking plain milk tea without any toppings while loudly discussing the guest list that Xingka had posted on X, their eyes occasionally glancing at the pretty girls sitting next to them.
When they saw each other looking at them, the two energetic young men immediately swept their hair back and casually showed off what they considered to be their most handsome 45-degree profiles.
However, the young women sitting next to them were simply giving them disgusted looks because they thought the men were shouting and behaving inappropriately in public.
Suddenly, a tall and imposing Mercedes-Benz GLS appeared on the street outside the glass window, instantly attracting the attention of the other customers in the milk tea shop.
The two energetic young men felt a surge of annoyance when they saw that everyone's attention was drawn to a car.
So the two of them pretended to be nonchalant and mocked each other.
"These days, how come there are still people driving Mercedes?"
"Yeah, don't they know Mercedes cars leak? What a sucker!"
This incredibly sour conversation, yet presented with feigned indifference, made the surrounding guests involuntarily dig their toes into the floor.
Some people left the milk tea shop without looking back after receiving their drinks, while others chirped quietly and occasionally cast mocking glances.
"These days, do young, trendy guys even look down on Mercedes-Benz?"
"Yeah, they don't even know their own worth. They probably borrowed the money for their milk tea from someone else."
The two young men felt no shame at the gossip around them; instead, they were secretly pleased that they had attracted the attention of the pretty girl at the next table.
Outside the Michelle Ice Cream Milk Tea shop, Chen Dong was unaware that he had inexplicably sparked a discussion simply by passing by.
As the red light slowly rolled down, he was debating whether or not to participate in the promotional event organized by StarCard.
If he, as the owner of Starcard, can participate, it will demonstrate Starcard's sincerity.
However, once you participate, you have to participate in two competitions at the same time, one domestic and one international, which is a bit too troublesome.
Therefore, Chen Dong hesitated to make a decision regarding Yin Qingying's invitation.
beep—
As soon as the green light turned on, the cars behind Chen Dong immediately started honking their horns.
The sudden sound of a horn instantly interrupted Chen Dong's thoughts.
However, Chen Dong followed traffic regulations and did not launch the car. Instead, he looked left and right before slowly driving the vehicle across the zebra crossing.
Modern society is indeed very safe, but every day there are quite a few people who are reincarnated into another world due to great fortune.
As Chen Dong drove toward the sales office of the villa complex, he gradually made up his mind.
Since he has decided to pursue this year's GJA Award with "Escape from Chicken Cove", he naturally has to take action, rather than taking it for granted that he can hide in the background and watch his employees work hard just because he is the boss.
In ancient times, when the emperor personally led an expedition, the imperial banner would press forward, which could greatly boost the morale of the army.
squeak-
Chen Dong abruptly stopped the car at the stop line at the intersection.
While waiting at a traffic light, Chen Dong used CarPlay to call Yin Qingying.
"Mr. Chen, is there anything I can help you with?"
Yin Qingying's calm voice came from the Burmester sound system inside the car.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to let you know that I've agreed to participate in the competition organized by Starcard, both domestically and internationally."
"Okay, got it."
On the other end of the phone, Yin Qingying remained calm and composed after hearing that Chen Dong had agreed to participate in the competition organized by Xingka.
Seeing this, Chen Dong didn't say anything more. He simply said he would drive off and hung up the phone before the red light turned green.
In the manager's office, there was less than half an hour left before the end of the workday.
Yin Qingying glanced at her busy phone, then looked up at Shen Shi, who was already packing up to leave work.
"Manager Shen, release another statement before you leave work, saying that the owner of Starcard will also participate in the Escape from Chicken Cop Grand Prix in four days."
"Is Mr. Chen also planning to participate?"
Shen Shi wasn't upset about the extra task that had been added to her schedule. After a moment of surprise, she turned her computer back on and got back to work.
At 5:03 p.m., StarCard's official social media account released another statement.
