"No way, Mr. Chen's total value this time actually exceeded one million?"
"It doesn't seem wrong. After all, with ten mysterious keys, at least one big red thing appeared on the ground every time the mysterious room was opened. Even two room cards from the laboratory were found. It's normal that they took out more than a million in total value."
"Haha, I just got back to the internet in China and took a look. I didn't expect that even before the Grand Prix ended, domestic players were already following Mr. Chen's example and farming black market dealers. However, black market dealers don't drop keys and room cards 100% of the time. It seems that Mr. Chen's luck is still pretty good."
As the Escape from Chickenkov International Grand Prix draws to a close, the number of viewers in the live stream has exceeded 300,000, and the number of followers on the official Escape from Chickenkov YouTube channel has also surpassed 100,000.
However, besides the regular viewers, there were also many trolls in the live stream. As the match was about to end, these trolls started to show their faces.
"A competition organized by Chinese people is indeed completely unfair!"
"For the president of a game company to openly exploit a bug in the game during a competition is a gross disrespect for the fairness of the competition."
"Hmph, that does fit my impression of the Chinese; they're even less polite than those Indians."
The vast majority of those who posted these comments in the live chat were speaking Japanese. Seeing that the match was about to end, they simply stopped pretending and started using their ultimate abilities right in front of the viewers.
Meanwhile, Fujishima Yuichiro, a so-called national blogger in Japan, also started live streaming on YouTube.
Furthermore, once you enter his live stream, you can see that he is openly and subtly mocking Starcard's game "Escape from Chickenkov," and instigating the fans in the live stream to expose Starcard's boss Chen Dong's improper behavior during the competition.
However, the Star Card fans who came because of his fame also keenly noticed a loophole in his behavior.
"Mr. Fujishima Yuichiro, since you look down on Starcard's 'Escape from Chicken' and its international grand prix, how come you know so much about Mr. Chen's actions during the competition?"
Fujishima Yuichiro's live stream has a large audience, so there are also many comments floating in the chat. If there were only this one comment, it would likely be buried in the noise.
However, when all the Star Card fans who flooded into his live stream started spamming this comment, it would take up a considerable amount of space on the screen.
Viewers in the live stream could clearly see that after seeing these comments, Fujishima Yuichiro's originally fair skin turned red, like a primary school student whose lie had been exposed, with embarrassment, anger, and shame all appearing on his face.
Instead of explaining, Fujishima Yuichiro started blocking everyone in the live stream who supported Starcard.
It was obvious that he was getting anxious.
He simply refrained from shouting during the live stream to maintain his idol image.
While Fujishima Yuichiro was busy dealing with the Star Card fans in the live stream, on the other side, in the International Grand Prix live stream, the commentator was already announcing the final results of the Grand Prix.
Without a doubt, the number one spot belongs to Chen Dong, who has been mentored by a coach worth over a million.
The second place winner's total value dropped sharply to 100,000, and he was an amateur player.
After the rankings of all ten contestants were announced, the commentator did not immediately read the closing remarks. Instead, he announced that Chen Dong would give up the first-place prize money and divide it equally among the four amateur contestants.
The viewers in the live stream weren't too surprised. After all, Chen Dong, as the owner of Star Card, was already worth hundreds of millions, so why would he care about the first place prize of 15,000 US dollars?
Simply distributing this portion of the prize money to amateur contestants might actually win over some casual observers.
After the commentator announced this news, the International Grand Prix officially began to come to an end. After the commentator finished his closing remarks, the live broadcast suddenly went black.
With this, the Escape from Chickenkov International Grand Prix has come to a successful conclusion.
Although this was a grand competition held internationally, Chen Dong's outrageous actions during the competition caused the discussion surrounding "Escape from Chickenkov" to reach a new peak in China.
All major video platforms feature fan-made content featuring Captain Fly and the Mysterious Merchant.
In addition, some people used the first-person mod in the Steam Workshop and combined it with the action of opening the mystery room to create a transition video, which attracted many internet celebrities to follow suit.
As for the international grand prix held this time, it has also provided a lot of help for the international promotion and distribution of "Escape from Chickenkov".
Just two days after the International Grand Prix ended, numerous gameplay videos, commentary, and tutorials for Escape from Chickenkov appeared on YouTube and TikTok, significantly accelerating its sales growth on the EC platform.
Hangzhou, Xingka.
As the International Grand Prix came to an end, a ray of dawn sunlight pierced through the glass window and reached the fifth floor where StarCard Games was located.
"Wow, it's already dawn."
"I stayed up all night, I'm exhausted."
Chen Dong slowly walked out of the private room, and after hearing the employees' murmurs, he clapped his hands vigorously.
"Thank you all for your hard work today. Please take advantage of your paid leave over the next few days to rest well. Also, given your excellent performance and outstanding contributions to the company, I will personally give you all a generous bonus when you return!"
Chen Dong's words were more effective than any stimulant on the market, instantly energizing the previously exhausted employees and restoring their spirits.
After all, Chen Dong's generous personality is a well-known fact within StarCard, and the large red envelope he personally promised will definitely not be small.
Chen Dong glanced at the employees who were already planning how to use the bonuses in the red envelopes, smiled silently, and without anyone noticing, picked up his coat and quietly left the company.
After playing "Escape from Chicken Cove" for several hours, Chen Dong's spirits were greatly depleted. Now he just wanted to drive home as soon as possible and get a good night's sleep.
Meanwhile, in Edo, neon lights shone.
As the sun slowly rose, car horns began to sound outside the room, just as Fujishima Yuichiro finished his broadcast.
His usual routine is not like this, but today he chose to broadcast live until the early morning of the next day because of the international grand prix held by Starcard.
However, instead of getting the international Grand Prix going, he was quite annoyed by Starcard's fans.
Remembering the nomination list announced by the GJA Awards organizing committee, Fujishima Yuichiro slammed his fist on the table.
"It's just a game made by Chinese people; it doesn't deserve the GJA award at all, it doesn't deserve it!"
Fujishima Yuichiro's eyes were bloodshot, whether from staying up all night or from the anger in his heart, it was hard to tell.
