Discord client Error: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'send'

On startup it should write a message in one of the text channels.

Error: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'send'

channel = client.get_channel(111111111)   #I have the real id
message = ("Wow")
@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))
    await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.online, activity=game)
    await channel.send(message)

Bot can get channel once it ready, that means before the bot is not ready you can't get a channel. And as you can see you are doing get_channel() before on_ready() event, i.e. Before the bot is ready.

Get the channel in on_ready event and that should be good to go.

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))
    await client.change_presence(status=discord.Status.online, activity=game) #game is not defined make sure to define it
    channel = client.get_channel(channel_id)
    await channel.send("Wow")
