Chapter 335: E-sports suitable for Koreans
Chapter 335 - E-sports suitable for KoreansEsports will be a thing sooner or later, but I probably won't be able to spare much time for it.
Most likely, I'll find some people skilled in this area to manage it and lay the foundation for the entire esports scene.
However, people skilled in esports management are rare in this world.
In my past life, such managerial talents were quite scarce.
Otherwise, only a few games would become internationally renowned esports projects.
Esports management talent is truly hard to come by.
Whether I can unearth such talent myself is really hard to say.
But if we use the power of a country to promote the esports industry, with the massive resources of the nation as a foundation, then it's a different story.

More importantly, it was due to the strong support of the Korean government.
If Blizzard hadn't insisted on reclaiming all the event hosting rights and destroying the cornerstone of their own game's esports scene, the development would have been quite impressive.

And all he needs to do is develop the game and hand over the hosting rights to Korea for esports events. Then he can sit back and enjoy the fruits, waiting for the esports industry to flourish.
He's not planning to repeat Blizzard's mistakes, forcefully taking back all the event hosting rights just for a small profit. Isn't it more profitable to sit back and collect money every year, using the power of a country to promote esports instead of a company? Even if this country isn't large.
