All of this is true, but:
1) We shouldn't dismiss the possibility that the next WCG will be held in China.
2) The WCG has officially abandoned Warcraft 3; no one sponsors it anymore, or at least not to the same extent as Starcraft 2. However, Warcraft 3 was still featured at the WCG that took place two days ago.
In my opinion, this is because some of the best Warcraft players live in China, and the game is popular there.
For the Communist Party of China, the fact that an official world championship (even if it's for video games) is held in their country is still significant.
3) I think there are many good Heroes players in China, and considering the population, there will be considerable interest in the broadcasts.
4) We should simply try to officially contact the WCG.
The main thing is to get them interested, and if they are interested, I think 50-100 thousand dollars for tickets, accommodation, and prize money won't be a problem for the Communist Party of China, with which all events are coordinated, and especially an official world championship.
5) Given the nature of the game, I think it will be possible to allocate 2-2.5 hours per match. And considering the 2-minute time limit on Melee maps, for example, the hardcore and extreme elements will be no less than in Warcraft and Starcraft, so there will be interest.

Even now, on the Warcraft section of battle.net, when WC3 is already "dead," there are regularly around 100,000 people (I don't know the exact number, I haven't checked in a while), and this is only on the European server. When people started moving away from it after the release of SC2, there were twice as many. Nevertheless, the game is dying, and most people are switching to the more promising and sponsored SC2. WC3 at the WCG this year is a dying gasp, and it's no longer a WORLD Cyber Games, and Heroes certainly don't qualify as a game of global significance.
Although you can indulge in wishful thinking as much as you want, no one is stopping you.
