If something can be gamified, we are going to gamify it. It is the best way to turn a daily task into something fun. Not surprisingly, there is a World Cup to collect garbage in Japan -How no-, but it is also something that allows demonstrating the skills in a program that many use, but not so many dominate: The World Cup. Cut by the same pattern is the CGC World Cupa competition that has become the World Cup to repair mobiles.
It is an event in which knowledge is shared, workshops are held and in which the main course is a fight repairing a smartphone under very strict rules.
CGC World Cup. During the last months, in countries such as Mexico, Colombia, Egypt or Indonesia, the qualifying phases of this competition have been held. The best talents of each region came with the hope of taking one of the squares in the final that will be held in the Chinese city of Guangzhou Los next September 17 and 18and it will be then when they have to expose their skills in front of the public and a professional jury.
20 minutes. That is the time that participants have in the tests. The competition seeks excellence both in the precision of labor and in the most difficult in these conditions: to fulfill the clock. The evidence is nothing unknown to competitors:
- Screen reconditioningwhich includes the replacement of damaged glass.
- CPU microsoration, such as the replacement of welding spheres.
- Repair of other terminal components, such as Wi-Fi modules or more common elements in repair workshops.
In each job there is a counter and a red button that the participant clicks when it is over. At that time, the jury comes to verify the correct performance in the evidence.
There are evidence from two hours 40 minutes
Nothing easy. They are situations in which we seek to simulate daily work in a workshop like we can go to to repair our smartphone, but the demand is that the greatest precision is sought at work and, above all, to fulfill a time that is really adjusted (it is not the same in your workshop than in a streaming and with people judging your work at half a meter). As if that were not enough, there are factors that influence the “game.” For example, temperature.
Professional attendees to the event comment They have air conditioning, yes, but precisely a temperature that they do not control can make their times vary because they may be more accustomed to higher temperatures in the workshop where they usually work and, even if they are a few degrees, it is something that can affect processes like him receptive.
In addition, each professional is accustomed to their tools (some even customize them), but in the GCG World Cup they all compete with the same weapons.
The mobile repair Messi. If the mobile lights, it is functional and the work has been done with maximum precision, leaving the smartphone in optimal conditions, wins. These events have also had their controversies, but in terms of experience, it is not only a competition, but a meeting point for the more top professionals of mobile repair worldwide, with panels and courses live. It is also an interesting meeting point for brand tools and distributors brands, so a synergy is created between the different legs of the sector.
The truth is that these videos of people performing microsolduras attract a lot of attention, and many of those professionals that we see on YouTube are those who compete and attend these events. Among all, it stands out Wyman Lauconsidered the best ‘repair’ of smartphones in the world and what is a show see to work. In the video below you are performing microsolures between processor pins A17 PRO of the iPhone 15 Pro.
It is a repair of the most advanced. It is called ‘CPU Jumper’ and consists of bridging two specific points of the integrated circuit of the CPU by means of a conductive thread, and it is something that is done when it is detected that one of the clues of the processor has been damaged by a fall, humidity or excess heat. Wyman Lau, with its G-Lon brand, is one of the top exponents of the CGC World Cup and someone who has been seen in the events.
The World Cup problem of mobile repair? That, as a public that attends live, or you look at the screen on which it is broadcast or surely do not find out about anything if you look directly at competitors, since they do work at the microscopic level.
