It was exactly eight p.m. Beijing time.
The global premieres began!
Every platform that had obtained the broadcasting rights immediately directed its cameras and focus to this Holographic World Championship.
That night, Holographic PUBG's viewership far surpassed China's Spring Festival Gala, easily breaking the global viewership record.
Previously, the program with the highest global viewership had always been the Spring Festival Gala.
But now, the Spring Festival Gala had been completely crushed by Holographic Competition.
After all, only Chinese viewers watched the Spring Festival Gala, while the audience watching the Holographic Competition now came from across the world!
In fact, many countries had placed the match on their most important television stations.
This program, which specialized in broadcasting major sporting events, was airing the entire Holographic World Championship live at eight that evening.
The authorities had also heavily promoted the Holographic Competition. Even Xinlian's seven-p.m. broadcast had specially reported on the eight-p.m. World Championship and wished the Chinese players good results.
Just how huge was this treatment? Surely that went without saying.
At that moment, the global livestream cameras showed that the match had not yet begun. Instead, three thousand IDs had gathered and were being randomly distributed.
All of the world's top three thousand players were ready. Not a single one was absent.
This game had no power outages, lag, or latency. As long as you put on the ring and lay down, that was all it took.
Unless someone did not want to compete and withdrew beforehand.
But no one would be foolish enough to do that now. All three thousand players knew what it meant to participate.
The exposure alone was enough to multiply their value several times. If they managed to achieve good results as well, teams from around the world would immediately extend them offers.
