The reporter learned from the press conference that the contest is divided into online trials in colleges and universities, finals in four major divisions in three provinces and one city, and finals. The final stage is planned to be held in Jinshan District from 65438+February 1 1 to 65438+February 13 (Friday, Saturday and Sunday). The main venue is set in the roller skating hall in Jinshan District, and the supporting activity area of the event is located in Jinshan City Beach Scenic Area. This competition takes Shanghai Jinshan as the core, and builds the first college e-sports competition system in the Yangtze River Delta through the Yangtze River Delta E-sports Association Alliance and the four major competition areas of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai and Anhui, aiming to become the first regional benchmark college competition in China. The main activities include e-sports competition, game experience, e-sports job fair, animation exhibition, etc., which further highlights the charm of Shanghai as the "global e-sports capital".
It is reported that the first Yangtze River Delta University E-sports Championship will begin to accept applications in early September and officially start in late September. The four major divisions will hold their own inter-school sea elections and division finals, and the winners will advance to the final of 65438+February, and the competition will last for four months.
In fact, Jinshan District can become the venue of two major e-sports events, behind which is a rich industrial development foundation.
In recent years, as a new combination of sports, games and entertainment, e-sports industry has continued its sports development process, and gradually expanded from a single e-sports to an "e-sports" field including e-sports, drones, artificial intelligence robots and other competitions. It is not only a hot industry, but also a sunrise industry, attracting a lot of funds and personnel to participate, and has developed into a competitive event that is popular all over the world.
The industrial ecology of Jinshan agglomeration development and innovation development is becoming more and more complete. At present, Jinshan District is actively building a "golden" signboard for industrial development with key parks and characteristic fields as the carrier around the four industrial clusters of new generation information technology, high-end intelligent equipment, life and health and new materials. Among them, the East China UAV base and the new display industry cluster have become two beautiful industrial business cards. Bringing the confrontation in the fields of drones, robots and artificial intelligence into the category of "e-sports" has given Jinshan rich resources to develop "e-sports" and accelerated Shanghai's efforts to build a "global e-sports capital".
At the same time, as the "bridgehead" of high-quality integrated development in the Yangtze River Delta, Jinshan regards itself as a big interface of resource elements in the Yangtze River Delta and a big platform for linkage development, and strives to exert the agglomeration effect, radiation effect and magnetic attraction effect of the bridgehead. The Yangtze River Delta Science and Technology City has basically defined the "five unification" operation mode, the Yangtze River Delta Roadshow Center has been completed and put into operation, the Yangtze River Delta time-honored revitalization base has successfully settled in Jinshan, and the Shanghai Bay Science and Technology Innovation Center has formed an operation system of "one center, one base and eight platforms".
Next, with the first landing and gradual development of the event, Jinshan District also plans to build a "university-youth-intercity" three-level event system to further promote the digital sports industry agglomeration and the innovative development of entertainment, tourism, education and other related industries.
