Chapter 198 [The transfer period is coming! 】
Each of the three teams entering the World Championship has been nominated.
As for the result.
"Let us invite Mr. Jin Yibo, CEO of Tencent Sports, to announce the winner of the best player of the year!" Ren Dong waved his hand, and a middle-aged man wearing a gray suit and gold frames walked to the center of the stage.
He slowly opened the envelope and said with a surprised expression, "He is Dow, the top laner from .IG. Congratulations!"
The footage of the camera looking at Chu Ge's face appeared on the big screen at the scene, and the audience burst out with the most enthusiastic cheers so far at the award ceremony.
Chu Ge was also a little surprised.
After all, he did not participate in many games this year. The Northern Expedition, which only started in the second half of the summer season, was not only exciting, but it was not worthy of the annual MVP award.
But he also thought about it before temporarily taking the stage.
Even at the LPL 10th anniversary celebration, Teng Jing could deprive S9FPX of the status of global finals champion, so it is natural to give him FMVP.
If all the selections are reasonable and they are dedicated to creating hot topics, where will the traffic for discussion come from?
After all, we have to give the fans and viewers a topic to play on. True fans are the traffic to be harvested, but anti-fans are not?
The Banana Plan should indeed be scolded, because there was something wrong with his planning itself. To put it bluntly, his brain was missing a string; but Tengjing entered the market at the center of the storm, and if he wanted to attract capital, he had to find ways to create traffic.
No matter how unhappy the piggies are, Chu Ge still has no chance of winning the annual MVP title. The progress of creating a god often starts from these grand ceremonies!
Chu Ge walked quickly onto the stage, took the personal trophy from Jin Yibo's hand, and came to the microphone to deliver his acceptance speech, "Thank you everyone for your support. First of all, I want to thank our manager Xiaoluo, who once again gave me the opportunity to enter my career." opportunity, and I would also like to thank our training team for their trust and generosity, who gave me the opportunity to carry the game!”
Chu Ge raised the personal trophy in his hand,
"After experiencing the disappointment last year, the beginning of this summer has become an unforgettable scene for me. Thank you everyone!"
"I also hope that everyone can continue to support us in the new season. IG also wants to do something that no club has done."
"Winning the S Championship again, and"
"The Bird's Nest wins the championship!"
In the audience, everyone at IG recalled the feeling of dying when they hit rock bottom this year, and they all applauded vigorously, as if they were also giving it to themselves for their hard work.
The audience at the scene raised their support cards and waved them continuously. Chu Ge's words once again ignited the passion in their chests, and they shouted Chu Ge's ID.
"Dow!"
"Dow!"
"Dow!"
Jin Yibo on the stage almost smiled!
Look, isn’t this heat coming?
The top laner and mid laner belong to the single lane in the five positions. Among them, the top players' lane operations and highlights are definitely the easiest to attract fans and build momentum.
The second step is to select players who can create gods according to the positions of AD, jungler and support.
What a pity
Starting from S3, the old batch of top top laners and mid laners either retired or sold meat waffles after S5, or got married and had children.
Only Mingkai is still active in the professional arena. With the professional player number 001, the honor of IPL5 championship and S5 MSI championship, he is already the best choice to become a god.
Again, it all depends on the support of my peers!
At this time, the barrage of watching the live broadcast was flooding the screen like crazy.
[I'm really not jealous of Dow at all. At least when someone asks him what champion he is, I can just throw the S championship trophy into his face]
[Woooooo! The Bird's Nest is really going to win the championship at home this year. I'm going to cry to death. I can't even imagine how crazy I was at that time! 】
[If IG and SKT are both double-championship clubs, then IG who wins the title must have higher gold content. What is a top club? (tactical fallback)]
[I still want to see Dow and my 7-chan win the championship together! Damn it, Third Young Master, what on earth did you do during the transfer period! 】
【I was laughing so hard! Third Shao just posted on Weibo saying that he resigned from RNG as manager. This is a real news! 】
Hearing Chu Ge's words, Mingkai held the trophy harder and harder, and his desire to win the championship at home reached a climax at this time.
He hates his stubbornness!
Why are you unwilling to put down your body and change your inherent style of play? Why do you just obey every critical moment?
Obviously in the entire LPL, he is the jungler who is best at protecting his father!
Mingkai sighed.
The clenched palms slowly relaxed, his face was full of dejection, and the light in his eyes was a little dimmer than before.
It’s all your fault, who can blame you?
It's not just him.
He was supposed to be smiling, as he was the happiest and most rewarding person in the audience, but at this time the smile on his face was a bit stiff.
These days, the principal has allocated 50 million in club funds, which will inevitably require him to completely make the IG club bigger and stronger this year.
And this time.
Zhu Xiangxing also received some rumors through various channels, and knew that people outside were desperately trying to poach members of the championship team for money.
Especially Chu Ge.
It is said that the boss of VG inadvertently revealed at a recent wine party in the industry this year that he would spend a high salary of 12 million to poach Chu Ge in order to build a team around him.
The value quotes of other players are at least 800W!
Except for Rookie, who is the cornerstone of the team and has a two-year contract period and is confirmed to stay on the team, the rookie contracts of the other four players have no binding force at all. The bosses of various clubs will not pay such break fees at all. Take it seriously.
The attitudes of Chu Ge and Gao Zhenning are actually in favor of continuing to renew their contracts, and their priority is to stay on the team and continue to compete for this year's World Championship quota.
But
Chu Ge's value has been continuously raised by major clubs. It is impossible for IG to say that they want FMVP to stay on the team even if they can't get 12 million.
May the carol know it well.
This year's championship-winning lineup is not worth more than 10 million, and Rookie still has the league's maximum salary contract of 8 million. In this case, even if he doesn't read the financial report, he knows that the IG club's revenue has definitely been earned ten times.
What a small goal!
The transfer fee of 12 million is actually within the market's expected value range. After all, when LGD signed Marin last year, the contract amount was already 10 million, and Zhu Songge can still accept it.
After all, a large amount of capital has poured in this year, and no less than 500 million yuan has already poured in just by singing the songs!
Isn’t there more that I haven’t heard?
So he is not afraid of the price on the table. What he is afraid of is that someone will not follow the rules and play the game according to the NBA's poison contract, and then he will lose money.
There is no salary cap to talk about now!
There is no limit to how much money you can spend!
Backed by Price Capital, IG is indeed not short of money. The principal even told him that if 50 million is not enough, he will increase investment in the future, so that he should not worry about money.
It can be seen in the carols.
The commercial value of each player can be calculated through various data models. The ratio of investment and income is asymmetrical. The club is purely generating electricity for love.
That is to say, the financial reports released every year are more attractive.
Surroundings, operations and the daily operations of various clubs all require a large amount of liquidity to maintain. If you spend all your money to buy players, how can you still live a life?
Do the other champion members want to renew their contracts?
They are all 17 or 18-year-old geniuses, and there is no shortage of potential buyers. Clubs that want to perform well in their home country tomorrow will never let go of the best opportunity of their lives.
IG now
Just like the dance practitioners in Tianya, you can get up close and personal with relaxed and happy music, and you can take it away after negotiating a good price.
The day after the grand ceremony, all IG members returned to the Shanghai base with full glory. Just as Aunt Hu was preparing for the celebration dinner, Zhu Songge was about to discuss contract renewal with the team members, when an accident happened.
Wang Cheng took the initiative and walked into the manager's office.
"Manager Xiaoluo, I want to transfer." Before Zhu Songge could speak, Wang Cheng got straight to the point and expressed his thoughts.
"You kid!" Zhu Songge waved his hand, then smiled, "I haven't even talked to you about the contract change yet.䱱."
Seeing Wang Cheng's serious expression, Zhu Songge suppressed what he was going to say next, paused and continued, "Have other teams contacted you?"
Wang Cheng nodded.
"Three teams have contacted me now," Wang Cheng didn't intend to hide it. "The salary is also good, but the reason why I came here early is not because of salary issues."
"With the boss's financial resources, it is actually very easy for the whole team to renew their contracts. The main reason is that I don't want to stay with the team anymore."
Zhu Xiange didn't say anything and nodded for him to continue.
“With pigeons and Lao Song as two top players in the team, no matter how hard I try and perform, my light will be overshadowed by them.”
Wang Cheng smiled and said, "I'm not jealous of them, but I want to go out and make a career on my own, and I also want the whole audience to cheer for my Wuxx ID!"
Wuxx knew it very well.
If he continues to stay with IG, even if he wins a second championship with the team, he will still be criticized by the people in Tieba as being the fourth or fifth bastard AD.
This is actually slightly different from what he originally envisioned when he came to IG.
Although he hated that Uzi took away his starting position in the summer split, Wang Cheng also longed to become a player like Uzi in his heart.
Now that he has won the spring and summer championships, the title of champion of the global finals, and all the honors he deserves, he can live up to his true feelings even if he can't achieve results after trying hard.
Even if he encounters IG in the spring game next year and loses the game and is called a traitor, Wang Cheng will be willing to do so. This is his own choice.
Looking at the determination of his team members, Zhu Songge couldn't think of any reason to persuade him to stay at this moment. After all, he was indeed telling the truth.
Whether on the playing field or in daily activities, Chu Ge and Song Yijin are always the focus of the audience. No matter how hard Wang Cheng tries, he can't escape the halo of these two.
"Have you decided on the team?" Zhu Songge's mood was very stable. After all, Wang Cheng was originally the last team member to be brought in to put out the fire in the summer split, and the contract was only signed for half a year.
Now that the transfer period is here, the decision lies with Wuxx himself.
"I don't know yet," Wuxx shook his head, "But I communicated with Brother Shengqiang before. He said that Brother Crystal's fighting spirit is a bit low and he is not very active in arm rehabilitation. He wants me to start for the Snakes. ”
"But I really want to go to EDG. That way I will get more tactical focus, and it will be easier to achieve results in an established and strong team."
This result was expected by Zhu Song. Wuxx and Baolan were probably discussing this matter mysteriously before.
However, Zhu Songsong was also a smart person and did not point it out. Instead, he waved his hand and sighed, "Since you have decided to leave, I won't force you. The club will cooperate with you in the transfer after the contract expires!"< br>
"Thank you, manager!"
Wang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the bookshelf behind the manager's office with complicated eyes. In the center was the winning moment of the IG training team on the stage of the Staples Arena in Los Angeles.
He sniffed, pursed his lips, closed the glass door and walked to the restaurant.
The caroler sighed softly.
He did not continue to talk to the team members about contract renewal, and planned to finish the dinner that seemed to be a celebration banquet before discussing it later.
Losing a Wuxx will not cause IG to lose its position. After all, it is normal for the team to lack top AD. If JackeyLove cannot play in the game, the worst they can do is to draw a new card.
It was rare that I didn't drink alcohol during the celebration banquet. During the meal, I also cooperated with Chen Zi and roughly tested the tone of the team members.
I can only say.
The situation is not optimistic!
After drinking and eating, Zhu Songge took Chu Ge to the night market outside the base alone while others were not paying attention. The two of them each had some braised barbecue.
"Geve, I'll tell you straight to the point," Zhu Songsong said seriously, "I want to talk to you about your contract next year."
Chu Ge was not surprised and nodded slowly in agreement.
"Don't worry, I will never treat you badly!"
Zhu Songge is full of confidence. If Wang Cheng decides to leave the team, he will be able to save at least 8 million for other players.
"15 million per year, which only includes your one-year signing fee," Zhu Song immediately dropped a bombshell, "Your live broadcast contract will continue to be reduced by 5 points based on your original 15%."< br>
Chu Ge narrowed his eyes slightly and put down the meat skewers in his hand.
If Chu Ge was tempted enough by VG offering him a maximum salary contract of 1,200W, then once Zhu Songge's offer came out, almost no one on the market could offer such a high price anymore.
S7 is indeed a time for capital to enter, but it will take at least a year to raise the players' salaries.
Especially at the time when Han Yuan is in power, major clubs actually prefer to give high salaries to Han Yuan, while the salaries of local players are not high.
And
Zhu Songge actually took the initiative to increase the revenue share of Chu Ge's live broadcast. With a 90% return rate, the club basically cannot make any money!
"Manager, you have to think carefully," Chu Ge said nonchalantly. "When I was at EDG, I was benched because the hero pool was not suitable for the version. Maybe I will succumb again after the version changes next year."< br>
"I've thought about this."
Zhu Songsong explained generously, "I have seen how fast you practice as a hero! How can this version of things defeat you?"
"So what if we change it to the Three Illusion Gods version? EDG has trained a good big tree for us!"
"Grass!"
“It’s not enough if I sign it!”
Chu Ge rolled his eyes and hugged his goosebumps, "Don't be disgusted with me. I want to practice heroes quickly. EDG won the championship last year!"
"Hey hey hey!"
When Zhu Songge heard that Chu Ge had agreed, he quickly took out the contract from his bag and handed it over, "Just take the contract first and take a good look at the terms inside. If there is no problem, you can sign it."
"Our IG is not a contract team like OMG!"
Chu Ge nodded slowly, put the contract into his black backpack, and then shouted, "Waiter, bring two bottles of cold beer and a bottle of cold Coke!"
Seeing Chu Ge accept the contract without any pretense, Zhu Songge breathed a sigh of relief, and his originally depressed mood immediately improved, and he even drank two more beers.
The next few days.
Zhu Songge successively renewed the contracts of Ning Wang, Mafa and Tabe. Chris announced his departure from the team, Wang Boqin officially assumed the position of head coach, and Mafa continued to serve as a supervisor.
Chu Ge signed the contract and handed it to him to officially renew it.
However, his good mood did not last long. Baolan, who was always procrastinating and hesitating, finally found Zhu Songge and told him the news of his upcoming departure from the team.
"Have you discussed it with Wang Cheng? Are you two planning to join other teams together?"
Are all the bottom duo gone?
"Well," Baolan said timidly, "Wang Cheng is gone. I thought Yu Wenbo would have a chance to take the stage this year, but he was once again stuck by the league as a registered LPL professional player."
"So. I finally decided to leave the team with Wang Cheng. At least we don't have to run in with others after we leave, and we can quickly develop combat effectiveness."
"The world is so big, I want to see it, manager!"
The carols were a bit slow.
AD is gone, the worst case scenario is to look for him again. After all, the LPL lacks everything except ADC. New shooters from major youth training camps are really in need of support. If you give them some time, they will surely be found.
But the support is different
The auxiliary players of each major team are all precious, and it is too difficult to find a talented player in the LPL and LSPL reserves.
"." Zhu Songge was anxious, and he quickly advised, "Baolan, our little IG is not too kind to you, right? The world's strategy formulation this year also gave you a big tactical tilt."
"You."
Baolan nodded awkwardly and clasped his fingernails, like a child who made a mistake, but even so, he still made no move to change his words.
Zhu Xiang's lips moved.
I wanted to say bad words several times, but finally held him back.
"Are you planning to transfer to the Snakes with Wuxx?" Zhu Songsong calmed down, "Chris's next home is also there. You three are planning to fight to the death for me, right?"
Bao Lan continued to lower his head and did not look directly at his manager.
Facts have proved that I wish you carols and guessed it right!
Snake!
After experiencing a brutal BO10 battle this year, Brother Crystal's fighting spirit was somewhat wiped out. Although he did not listen to the quack doctors and underwent bloodletting treatment, his arm was still more or less injured.
The rhythm is really vomiting blood. His body is now completely unable to adapt to the high-intensity professional life. He finally decided to retire and has already started to go through the process in the league.
But
Because the behemoth Tencent entered the game three years in advance, IG also won the first championship in LPL history at the S6 Global Finals, which directly changed the time course.
The home and away system will be launched in the summer split!
Snake has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Chongqing, and will build the Snake team's main venue in the mountain city, and will also invest a lot of money to develop the e-sports industry.
The Snakes are rich!
Naturally, I will try my best to poach people!
As the head coach, Chris was bought to play the mid laner, and IG's championship duo also happened to fill the two vacant positions.
There is no need for Ezuo Kiro to go to Nanchu Myeongdong or Incheon to invite Han Yuan Ohq to come to LPL to make a joke.
The outline and details are almost ready, and normal word count updates will resume tomorrow.
