The competition officially started registration on July 25th. August 12-13 is the enterprise audition, and August 19-20 is the university audition.

"Previously, buying esports peripherals was done online, making it difficult to see the actual products. This time, I can directly experience purchasing in physical stores, and there are so many brands to choose from. It's really fortunate!" said the esports enthusiast on site.
The reporter learned that in the next step, Zhangjiang Town will continue to strengthen the close cooperation of the "game+esports+business" model by carefully organizing social scenes that are popular among young people, such as "esports+competitions", "esports+markets", and "esports+training", to better serve Zhangjiang enterprises and meet the cultural needs of the Science City.
