Chapter 222 50 million live broadcast contract, Chen Yiqiu: Female Internet celebrity was too enthusiastic and blocked

“Ah, this is a path I have never imagined, but if I remember correctly, a team from the LPL The team can only recruit two Korean players at most, how can we be together?"

Li Zaiwan was very interested in this proposal and asked his doubts.

“You don’t understand this.”

Bae Junzhi bared his teeth: “We said we were together, but we didn’t say we were in the same team. We could be in the same division, but different teams. ”

"...Awesome."

Chen Yiqiu gave a thumbs up.

This can indeed ‘maximize interests’. If Pei Junzhi really wants to make money after this, he will really be able to control it with his hands.

"As a player, compared to these, I think we should care more about honor and achievements now."

Lee Sang Hyuk, who had been silent next to him, spoke up to make his presence felt, At the same time, Bae Junzhi and Li Zaiwan were warned.

Who are you two from?

"Ahaha... Speaking of what to eat at the celebration banquet tonight, I have been looking forward to this championship dinner for a long time."

Li Zaiwan immediately changed the subject and happily discussed what to eat.

There is a tradition in the SKT team every year... Actually, it is not a tradition. After all, any team that wins the S championship will definitely celebrate.

Compared to other teams, SKT can only say 'celebrate every year', which is a little more luxurious.

This year, their club "sourced local materials" and chose a famous restaurant in Los Angeles as a reward for the players and management who have worked hard for a year.

Of course, the deeper meaning is actually more important.

——How to retain the current SKT championship team.

As discussed by Chen Yiqiu, Li Sanghyuk and others; the enthusiasm between the LPL division and other divisions.

S6 has actually ended now, and the championship will be won by SKT, so the necessary processes and preparations must be done in advance.

Otherwise, they may be too late during the transfer period and may lose their current SKT championship team.

Among them, whether Reaper has renewed his contract and what his treatment is are naturally ranked first.

Except for Chen Yiqiu, similar to Bang, Wolf, and even Faker, these are superstars. Although they have contracts, if they really want to exchange between clubs, especially those top clubs, such as North American C9 , it’s not worth the money at all.

Therefore, the celebration banquet after winning the championship is a part of SKT's efforts to stabilize its military morale, and there will be more exchanges with teammates later.

Everyone in SKT has no time to pay attention to online public opinion and the direction of the trend in the circle at the moment, but everyone is not a newcomer. Once they win the Triple Crown, it is inevitable that their value will skyrocket.

So each of them is now thinking and thinking in their hearts, maybe only Faker's will is 100% firm.

In this way, at the celebration banquet that day, the management of the SKT club and Kkoma chatted with everyone in SKT one by one. The results will definitely not come out so quickly, but the initial intentions and the club are emotionally moved. Xiaozhi showed it with 'profit'.

......

Chen Yiqiu felt slightly dizzy after walking out of the room.

Everyone in SKT is very happy tonight. The Koreans like to have a few drinks when they are happy.

Although he drank specially bought sake from Korea, Chen Yiqiu, a player who usually strictly prohibits alcohol, was still a little drunk.

Drip Lingling.

The phone rang, and Chen Yiqiu was a little dumbfounded.

This mobile phone is his 'private mobile phone', and the other one was turned off after winning the championship.

Because if he didn’t turn off his phone, the message notification would keep ringing and the phone calls would keep coming in. He was a little busy.

Can I get the contact information of his personal mobile phone? Which club is it?

Chen Yiqiu was curious and answered the phone.

“Hello?”

“Hey, are you a Reaper player? I am the person in charge of Huya, my surname is Chen, oops... after all, we are still the same family.”

Live streaming platform?

Chen Yiqiu was startled.

He thought it was some club, but he didn't expect that the first person to call his personal mobile phone would be a domestic live broadcast platform.

Huya naturally knew, and said politely: "Hello, Mr. Chen, what are you..."

"That's it, Yiqiu, we have wanted to sign you here for a long time. Live broadcast, but your previous live broadcast contract has not expired, now your contract is about to expire, right? Are you interested in doing live broadcast on Huya next year?"

Mr. Chen asked very directly.

He knew that Chen Yiqiu must be very busy now, and in order to get Chen Yiqiu's contact information, it could be said that he had put in a lot of effort and made a lot of contacts.

Hurry up now if you can, otherwise others will get ahead of you.

"That's it, Mr. Chen, my live broadcast contract is indeed about to expire, but the live broadcast contract is tied to the team, so..."

Chen Yiqiu is not surprised about Huya's purpose, and will briefly explain Just be prepared to refuse.

“Haha, Yiqiu, don’t be impatient, listen to our sincerity first.”

Mr. Chen said earnestly: "You still don't know how much your current contract is worth, right?"

Hearing this, Chen Yiqiu said nothing.

"...In this way, I sent a document to your mailbox, which contains some contract details. You can take a look. Now, I can make the decision myself. As long as you agree tonight, we A verbal agreement can be reached immediately. "

"30 million, one year at Huya, a 30 million contract, not three years and five years, 30 million a year, do you think about it?"

Chen Yiqiu's eyelids jumped when he heard this quotation.

Although it was expected, the price of Huya is indeed a bit ridiculously high.

Let me explain here, although it is still in the bubble period of the live broadcast industry, the signing fees of major anchors are higher one after another.

But as an insider, Chen Yiqiu knows the moisture and fishiness inside.

It is mainly divided into two points.

1. Any contract worth over RMB 10 million will definitely shrink by one-third.

For example, if a certain anchor announces a 50 million contract, then this 50 million figure will have to be reduced by at least half, up and down to 16 million.

2. For the so-called tens of millions of contracts, the live broadcast platform has various requirements.

The simplest and most direct point - your contract period.

‘Annual salary’ is a very flexible word in the e-sports circle. 50 million a year is an annual salary, and 50 million in three years can also be declared as an annual salary.

You only need to weaken the number of years and directly promote that a certain anchor is worth 50 million and that a certain anchor platform spends tens of millions or even hundreds of millions to sign the anchor.

In fact, the live broadcast bubble does exist, but how can there be any fools in this world?

Can money be conjured out of thin air on large platforms like Douyu Huya?

In addition, there will be rigid conditions in the contract, such as how much popularity, barrages, and even gifts must be met during the live broadcast. If not met, the annual salary will be halved, or other benefits will be reduced.

More like a gambling contract.

In the past few years, there have been constant lawsuits and conflicts between anchors and live broadcast platforms, most of which stem from these issues.

Therefore, looking at the conditions offered by Huya at this moment, it would be an exaggeration to say that this contract is already the best in the country. No more than three anchors can get this contract.

“In Yiqiu, we at Huya are really sincere and very optimistic about your future development. Of course, if you can return to LPL in the new season, this number can still change... Anyway, I hope we can move forward together next year. …I won’t bother you anymore, you can take a look at the contract details.”

Mr. Chen didn’t waste time and acted very ‘reserved’.

This also stems from his confidence in the contract conditions he issued.

Everyone who knows anything knows that Huya spent a lot of money this time.

If it were anyone else, this 30 million contract would have given you at least five years, plus various constraints, non-competition agreements and the like.

After calculating this, the so-called 30 million anchors actually have an annual salary of only 6 million.

"Okay."

Chen Yiqiu hung up the phone, saying in his heart that he was not moved would be a lie.

In fact, he is still a little confused now.

Not counting the team, not counting the money from the professional circle in the future, he could actually get a big contract of 30 million a year just from the live broadcast.

This... He thought he would take off instantly after winning the championship, but he didn't expect the intensity of the takeoff to be so terrifying.

"It's a good time. In the next few years, the money will be reduced by at least half...more than that."

Chen Yiqiu sighed secretly.

He knows that the live broadcast bubble has arisen in the past two years. In order to snatch the resources of big anchors, major live broadcast platforms have beaten people's heads into dog heads and spent money recklessly.

In two years' time, as the live broadcast bubble bursts and major live broadcast platforms close down, there will no longer be such a favorable market environment.

Of course, Chen Yiqiu also noticed another attitude of Huya.

“The salary for returning to the LPL will be higher... Is this a collaboration between the LPL official and Huya, or is it just based on popularity...”

With Chen Yiqiu’s current popularity in China, he feels that both should All possible.

“Hey, who are you calling?”

Pei Junzhi came over as he was passing by. In fact, he had seen Chen Yiqiu when he called just now, but he never came.

He waited until he hung up the phone before he came over.

"Oh, a call from a live broadcast platform." Chen Yiqiu had nothing to hide about this, because he had already heard Pei Junzhi and Li Zaiwan discussing these things while eating just now.

Both of them received many invitations and discussed and compared with several friends in private.

"Really? How about it?"

Sure enough, when he heard that the team was not poaching people, Pei Junzhi had no worries. His eyes lit up and he quickly asked.

Chen Yiqiu briefly talked about the treatment, and Pei Junzhi instantly slapped his thigh.

"Assi! 30 million? Or RMB?!"

"It's a big deal!"

He was really shocked.

SKT has always been anchoring on Mouse Channel in the past. Although there are broadcasts in China, the money is not that much.

Until this year’s championship, perhaps because of Chen Yiqiu, SKT is now very popular in China. He and Li Zaiwan have received several offers for live streaming platforms not long ago.

Probably between 10 million and 1500.

Now listening to Chen Yiqiu's words, he instantly felt that all he smelled in his nose was the smell of copper - he had been wrapped in money.

"This...I have to agree to this. This is too much money. It would be a big loss if I don't agree!"

Pei Junzhi babbled: "Anyway, your live broadcast contract is not deeply tied up, so you can sign it alone. , with your current worth, those teams should No problem."

"By the way, did Huya just talk to you?"

Chen Yiqiu glanced at him and saw that Pei Junzhi was now completely impressed by Huya. Yes, I have an idea to be a companion with Chen Yiqiu.

“That’s not true.”

"Huh?"

Pei Junzhi felt a little pity.

Chen Yiqiu changed the subject: "But which live broadcast platform do you think will reject you now, as well as Xianghe and the others?"

"...It makes sense."

Pei Junzhi's eyes lit up and he patted Chen Yiqiu: "Good brother, hurry up, hurry up, I'll call Li Zaiwan and Sang Hyuk. I think this matter can be considered..."

This is a small group meeting.

Chen Yiqiu smiled and nodded. If the entire SKT team can go together, then Huya will have to continue to raise prices even if it loses money.

What we want is group interests!

Pei Junzhi has been completely shocked by the rich man in Huya. He is actually very eager for money now because he has a girlfriend and has to consider the future life of the two of them.

Chen Yiqiu returned to the room first, and had already received calls from several live broadcast platforms on the way.

I don’t know where his contact information was leaked, but now he can only be found on live streaming platforms.

But the live broadcast platforms can be found, and those teams are probably fast.

Ten minutes later.

Bae Junzhi walked in with Li Zaiwan and Li Sanghyuk, and the four people gathered together and murmured.

“Just now Douyu also made an offer of 30 million, and said that if our entire team signs with Douyu, the price will increase.”

"Of course...their request here is quite special...I won't say why it is special, it has to do with my personal life."

Chen Yiqiu didn't finish his words, but Li Sang Hyuk and others knew that Douyu's conditions are probably Chen Yiqiu must return to LPL.

This is easy to understand. If Chen Yiqiu continues in the LCK in the new season, no matter how popular he is, there will still be a certain gap between him and returning to the LPL.

Even seeing that he has not returned in the new season, LPL audiences and officials should change their current fanatical attitude towards him.

The wind direction may change again.

On the other side, in addition to Douyu and Huya, live streaming platforms such as Zhanqi that were originally related to SKT, as well as Quanmin, etc., have all sent invitations. The price is slightly lower than the two giants, but they are also full of sincerity.

Among them, the one with the highest bid and the most generous treatment turned out to be Panda Live.

This is a live broadcast platform established last year by the son of the richest man in China. From 2015 to 2016, it once caused a bloody storm in the live broadcast and e-sports circles.

Panda Live has a lot of money, and the anchor’s net worth is so high now, and Panda Live deserves the most credit.

Facing the new traffic king, who may be the future Reaper of the LPL, Principal Wang asked someone to make a call and asked for 50 million, and regarding the introduction of SKT in the new season, it was also money that was not money. , the quotation breaks through the sky.

"This 50 million...is a bit...too scary."

Pei Junzhi was shocked by the contract price.

What kind of family? 50 million a year, Panda Live can’t handle it?

“That’s quite a lot.”

Chen Yiqiu nodded, but he didn’t actually finish.

The 50 million offered by Principal Wang has one condition that must be met: signing with IG for the new season.

This is given together with Chen Yiqiu’s signing fee for the new season. Can it be lower?

But no matter what, on the first night of winning the championship, he already felt the "overwhelming" sugar-coated bullets.

Those who don’t have a certain amount of self-control are really unable to control themselves.

Too much money.

"I will discuss it with Kkoma later... If possible, we may sign a contract with a Chinese live broadcast platform for the new season, but it is not certain yet. The Mouse TV station should also bid."

Finally, Lee Sang Hyuk made the final decision and ended for this small group secret meeting.

Due to SKT's specialness and honor, they used to be the anchors of Mouse Channel and broadcast it on other live broadcast platforms in the competition area.

But that’s because the Mouse bidder was the highest, but now that they have won the Triple Crown and SKT is so popular in China, there is no reason not to sign a contract with a Chinese live broadcast platform.

The team benefits from this, and their players are the first beneficiaries.

"Okay."

Chen Yiqiu nodded.

The crowd dispersed.

Just now, everyone tacitly avoided the topic of the team and only talked about the live broadcast platform.

But everyone knows that this is something they will face sooner or later.

…

The next day.

Noon.

Chen Yiqiu rarely slept in.

He turned off his mobile phone before going to bed last night, and waited until he woke up before opening his first mobile phone. This mobile phone knew the contact information of many people. As soon as he opened it, Didi and Didi The sound of a WeChat pop-up pops up without any money.

Chen Yiqiu first clicked on QQ and found that everyone from elementary school to high school classmates, whether familiar or unfamiliar, with or without previous contact, had sent him congratulatory messages.

Some of them even said they were his ‘classmates’ from kindergarten, which made Chen Yiqiu very confused.

Kindergarten? Did I have QQ at that time?

Ahem, these are not important. What is important is that Chen Yiqiu has been surrounded by congratulations and compliments.

I turned off my phone early last night and had to attend the celebration party. Finally, I discussed the choice of live broadcast platform with Lee Sang Hyuk and the others for a long time.

I didn’t feel it at that time.

When I turned on my phone today, I realized that the weather outside seemed to be changing.

Classmates who were not familiar with each other before, 'school beauties' who had a crush on them, teachers who thought they were Internet-addicted teenagers, neighborhood friends, even aunts and uncles, and relatives who didn't understand e-sports. Each and every one of them seemed to instantly transform into a ten-year-old e-sports player, and when they opened their mouths, they congratulated each other for winning the world championship.

"Hmm..."

Chen Yiqiu rubbed his face. It felt a little pleasant at first, but after watching it a few times, he found that there were all kinds of fishing, borrowing money, and even female Internet celebrities explicitly talking about it. The love news is a bit boring.

Who do you think I am?

The one who openly posted sex pictures hinted that she had several sisters.

Am I the kind of scumbag who changes his mind every day?

Sure enough, there is a reason for the ‘historical practice’ of winning the championship in one year, having his hips pulled in the second year, and not being found out in the third year.

How can a normal adolescent boy withstand these temptations?

But Chen Yiqiu was not a real kid, so he chose to ignore it.

As for why he didn’t just block and delete them, he felt that there was no need to dampen the enthusiasm of Internet celebrities. He had no other intention, but simply hoped that they could make progress.

Speaking of progress.

——These are all obstacles that hinder my progress.

“Sure enough, I am the chosen one.”

Chen Yiqiu suppressed his inexplicable anger and decided to wash up and calm down.

Just after washing my face and calming down a little, a phone call came in.

“Hello?”

“Reaper? Hello, I’m Abu from EDG, haha, I wanted to call your other phone yesterday, but I didn’t expect you to turn it off too…”

The first call from the LPL division is here.
