Chapter 235 235: Earthquake during the transfer period (Part 1)!


Chapter 235 Chapter 235: Earthquake during the transfer period (Part 1)!

"Europe?"

Gu Xing was shocked by Gu Shengbin's idea.

The award ceremony has ended, and the professional players are exiting in an orderly manner under the arrangements of the staff.

He managed to catch Imp from the surging crowd.

"What's going on?" Gu Xing asked confused.

Imp pulled him over with a very affectionate gesture, "You guys have won two world championships, so you can't go out and have fun, right?"

With Ju Shengbin holding both crowns, the previous high-spirited energy has long since disappeared.

Now I feel empty, lonely and cold, and I feel like I can see all the small mountains at a glance.

Imp originally wanted to follow the decadent style this year, but in the middle of the summer split, they were suddenly given a shot of blood by Redmi, and they managed to survive for half a year.

Now I can't bear it anymore.

He started to indulge in clubbing again, had a few drinks when he had nothing to do, smoked and drank a lot and had his hair permed!

Goo Sung Bin is very clear about his future plans.

Ding Jun made it clear during the discussion that he will still compete for the championship in the S7 season. He will not be able to help the team if he stays in the team, and may also delay his teammates.

It's better for everyone to get together and relax, which can also be called a beautiful thing.

Hearing that Goo Shengbin did not plan to renew his contract, other VG players crowded over and surrounded him.

"Isn't it okay to stay in the LPL?" Xiao Duan was worried. He was completely unfamiliar with the far-away European competition. He felt that going there was an unfamiliar place and it was not a good choice.

"No," Gu Shengbin shook his head with a serious attitude, "There is no way to mess up here."

No one knows the e-sports public opinion in China and South Korea better than him.

After winning the championship, netizens said that he would not need to spray. Recently, he was directly praised as the world's No. 1 Edici in the anti-bar.

But in the end, he still had to be scolded and put under excessive pressure.

Imp is now proud of the success and does not want to suffer.

"Then you go to the United States," Gu Xing was puzzled. "I heard that the salary there is high and you don't have to work particularly hard in training."

The North American region is currently synonymous with insiders being stupid and making a lot of money.

The bosses spent money trying to find strong foreign aid, and the prices they offered were quite generous.

Like Impact, if he simply stayed in North America and never came back, he would make a lot of money!

"North America?" Gu Shengbin sneered disdainfully, "I don't want to go to that region where a bunch of losers are competing against each other."

Imp now wants to relax and get rid of the high pressure state.

But I don’t want to fall completely.

It’s funny, he still hopes to make money by relying on his competitive status. If it is completely ruined, he will have to run away after a year at most. There is no way to sustainably eat!

Goo Shengbin's plan next year is to clock in and out every day, train 10 hours a day, and have a fixed holiday every week.

For Imp and other Chinese and Korean players, this is a very relaxed working environment.

But in North America, it can definitely be called hardworking!

In this case, going to the United States feels a bit out of place.

To put it simply, Gu Shengbin's thoughts are stuck in the middle, and he can't get up or get down.

Go up, the Chinese and Korean divisions look down on players who practice 10 hours a day.

How can you sleep during these years of struggle?

Come on, he looks down on North America and the wild card team.

Simply compromise and go to Europe.

The EU division has performed well in international competitions in the past two years, with S5 having a double semi-final, and S6 also having a team like H2K that reached the semi-finals.

In terms of overall competitiveness, it is nowhere higher than North America!

Moreover, the money is generous, and the training environment is not strict or strict, which is in line with Gu Shengbin's requirements.

"Do you have a suitable buyer?" Li Zhixun asked with concern from the side.

Ju Shengbin shook his head, "When the transfer period comes out in the early morning, many teams will definitely contact me. Don't be anxious... We have the double crown in hand, are we afraid that no team will ask for it?"

His voice grew louder at the end.

The two world championships were won in the Chinese and Korean dual divisions, and they were both full of gold content.

It is indeed Goo Sung Bin’s arrogant capital.

Looking at the five major leagues in the world, there are many people who are willing to offer Imp a big contract. He can choose any team without worrying at all.

Xiao Duan pursed his lips and scratched Ju Shengbin's newly dyed red curly hair.

Imp twitched his lips and smiled, "Next year, I will lead Jie Kuo to fight well. I think this guy just lacks experience and his talent is not a big problem."

Allen Chu sighed, "It seems that you are the only one who has to leave the team now... go outside and take care of yourself!"

Both he and Hou Ye are going to change the coaching staff, and apart from not playing games, nothing else will change.

Only Gu Shengbin left VG to compete in other competition areas. Zhu Xiaolong, who usually likes to worry about his friends, was naturally worried.

Imp was very dissatisfied when he heard this, "I'm almost 23 years old and I still don't have the ability to take care of myself?"

Gu Xing couldn't help but curse.

Who worries about something as trivial as whether you can tie your own shoelaces?

It’s your mouth that I’m obviously afraid of!

Imp's talking skills are quite extraordinary in the European and American regions, which are known for their joy.

If you start fighting as soon as you pass by, you might get two big slaps.

Especially the atmosphere within the team, you might even be targeted.

Yu Wenbo took the initiative to hug Imp.

"It will be embarrassing for me to hold it in next season," Gu Shengbin joked as he knocked Jack on the head, "otherwise I will fly back and give you a few slaps!"

Jack just nodded.

"You have to go back to Shanghai for a few days, right?" Hongmi said proactively, "Let's have a drink then."

"Then we have to wait until the transfer period is settled before leaving. There will be plenty of opportunities to drink!" Imp agreed.

It was already late at night when everyone in VG returned to the hotel.

Gu Xing saw that WeChat was filled with congratulatory messages from acquaintances and friends.

After adjusting my mood, I briefly announced the good news to my family and Shen Guanshan.

He received three trophies and a big contract at the award ceremony tonight, which can be said to be a fruitful harvest.

"How much?!" Gu Pan once suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

Gu Xing felt happy when he saw his sister's expression.

My parents were still thinking about the concept of ten million, "Earning a house in two months? Oh my god, isn't this a money grab?"

Shen Guanshan was responsible for shining the stars, his eyes full of admiration and joy, "Gu Xing, you are so amazing..."

Although the words were straightforward, Gu Xing was very helpful.

Seeing that his parents didn't raise any objections, he settled down and prepared to sign the contract.

When Gu Xing hung up the video call and took a shower to wash away his fatigue, it was exactly 12 o'clock.

The vigorous LPL transfer period has officially begun!

Countless free agent signings and deals will be concluded, and next year the division will also see a major reshuffle!

Gu Xing received the news and rushed to Ding Jun's room to join his teammates.

The boss took several stacks of contracts and was looking for someone to fill them out. The first wave was for players like Hou Ye and Long Ge who were transferred to the coaching staff.

They basically won't receive invitations from other teams, and they are eager to stay in VG, so they can simply sign the contract.

Next is Gu Xing.

Although there has been no official announcement of a free agent, many clubs have sent offers based on the idea of ​​'try without losing money'.

"Guigui..." Yu Wenbo stared at the letters from various powerful clubs that were pouring out of Gu Xing's mailbox, with envy in his eyes, "When will my brother be like you, Lao Gu?"

After signing the contract, Zhu Xiaolong felt a huge stone falling in his heart and felt very comfortable, "This is not easy, just start and win the world championship!"

When Yu Wenbo saw this, he breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, it will be done next year!"

Hearing this, everyone in the VG room laughed out loud.

"Good guy, you are crazier than me!" Gu Shengbin took a sip of wine and lay comfortably on the sofa.

Immediately afterwards, Jack's fair face was filled with a smile, "Dude, my teammates and coaching staff are ridiculously strong. What's going to happen to the champion?"

Gu Xing, who was looking through the emails curiously, couldn't help but sigh that Yu Wenbo's ability to hypnotize others was really good, and he would do it every now and then to build up your confidence.

The quotations in the mailbox mainly come from LPL clubs.

The expected salary given is between 800W and 900W, which does not reach eight figures.

After all, a salary of several million is already a well-deserved super-large contract at the end of S6. For example, Gao Dewei relied on his strength and household registration to be the best among domestic mid laners in his peak period, and the contract was signed with a salary of 3 million.

Eighty-nine million is already the only salary level in the LPL.

What surprised Gu Xing was that the highest bid came from IG!

"Has Su Xiaoluo lost his mind and gone crazy?" Gu Xing muttered to himself.

He originally thought that the last communication between him and the IG manager was just to break the ice at best, and was far from a harmonious relationship.

In this case, IG also needs to send a quote?

Little did he know that the quotation was not Su Xiaoluo's original intention at all. He knew it would be difficult to attract Gu Xing, and he had no intention of doing so.

It was the boss Wang Sicong who did it.

VG, which Ding Jun invested in, won the world championship and has been showing off in the circle recently.

Wang Sicong couldn't sit still and wanted to start something.

Youshen, the kid who blocked the atomic bomb for himself, is going to bring his talent back to the ADC position next season, and IG is just short of junglers.

Buy a Gu Xing and pair it with a broiler to become the top midfielder in the LPL!

It’s no problem to target the S7!

He didn't care about the tricks Su Xiaoluo had made before. He would first make a high offer to see the reaction. If there was an actor, Wang Sicong could come over directly.

It's a pity that he didn't expect Ding Jun to be more ruthless.

Directly increase Gu Xing's contract amount to an unprecedented level of tens of millions!

Gu Xing himself didn't want to go to IG anymore and asked Ding Jun for his contract.

There is a 1+1 clause in it.

In short, Gu Xing will play for one season first, and in the second year he can decide whether to stay or not after comprehensive consideration.

Mainly because he still has a student status at Fudan, and it is unclear whether he will continue to take a leave of absence next September, so he must reserve space.

When Hou Ye came to VG, he signed a 1+1 contract. He just took out the option in advance and became a coach.

This kind of regulation is of great benefit to the players, and Ding Jun is full of sincerity.

"Look carefully, make sure the amount and period are correct before signing..." the boss reminded him, and then went to Xiao Duan, "How much did RNG give?"

Ding Jun promised to follow up on the salary provided by RNG to Duan Deliang.

But he didn't expect that RNG would be so ruthless in order to get a small piece, and directly raised the price to 7 million!

You must know that the annual salary of the assistant is the lowest among the five positions, which is closely related to the status in the game.

In the past, he was just a tool man with a full field of vision with the prophet potion. Now with the advancement of the operation system and game rhythm, the auxiliary status is indeed gradually rising, but it has not expanded to such an extent!

Nosuke's annual salary alone is 1,700W, which is the maximum salary in the dual leagues. A club of VG's size cannot afford it!

Ding Jun took advantage of the break to help Gu Xing sort out the contract, and his brain was spinning rapidly.

He finally bit the bullet and decided to match the offer.

The World Championship will be held in China next year, and Ding Jun is determined to completely establish VG's absolute leading position in the LPL.

Now he can think about it clearly.

Clubs can now either spend a lot of money and bet on results, or they can completely fail and save money just to gain some popularity in the league.

The biggest taboo is to spend half the money and give up halfway because it is too expensive.

If you spend too much money, your final results will be unsatisfactory. It's a pure lose-lose situation!

As Duan Deliang solemnly signed his name on the contract, Ding Jun finally relaxed a lot.

After settling the Hongmi contract, he just turned his attention to Gu Shengbin lying on the sofa.

"Imp how are you doing there?"

Ju Shengbin took a sip of wine and said, "Yes, several European and American clubs have sent us quotes and trial training invitations!"

"Who wants to show me Kangkang?" Gu Xing went over to watch the fun.

I discovered that the one at the top was a club with a very familiar name.

G2.

"Eh?" Jack's big head also stretched over, "G2 still wants to buy Pupu, so isn't the foreign aid quota exceeded?"

He remembered that G2 had two Korean aids in the field and jungle, which had reached the upper limit of the quota.

"Do you want to kick someone? I don't know..." Imp was confused.

Gu Xing's cell phone suddenly rang.

I opened it and found that it was an overseas phone number.

After the call was connected, the other party spoke English with a strong accent and very non-standard, "Hi Virtue, I am Perkz from G2, do you remember?"

"I saw that Imp sent a free agency message today, so I contacted Carlos, our boss, to discuss the opinions and sent the signing and trial training intentions. I don't know if he saw it, but luckily I added it during the World Championship. Your phone number..."

Gu Xing didn't expect that the connections he had developed with players from other teams in S6 could actually come in handy in this regard.

He glanced at Ju Shengbin who was confused on the sofa and said, "Imp is by my side. Come and talk to him directly."

Putting the phone into Imp, Ju Shengbin took it and communicated with Ah P in the same non-standard English.

I have to say that Imp's vocabulary is quite lacking, and he kept shouting excitedly until the end.

Gu Xing was helping Ding Jun sort out the contract. He waited for a quarter of an hour before Ju Shengbin returned the phone, with a look of excitement on his face.

"What benefits have I given you?" Gu Xing was very curious.

"G2 is going to rebuild!" Ju Shengbin Wuhu shouted, "They are going to replace Perkz with a group of teammates and prepare to pull the nest over!"

He excitedly continued to explain the general idea to the players present.

"All four teammates have to be replaced. It is said that the boss of G2 is very dissatisfied with the results of this year's World Championship!"

Despite the G2 League's double championship, they were the only five-region champion team to be eliminated in the mid-season, with their 2-8 record being absolutely shameful.

The S6 World Championship is an unprecedented top 16!

The European audience felt that G2 had humiliated them all.

The boss Carlos was also made to have an explosive mentality.

Although the atmosphere in the G2 team is quite good, he still decided to start a reconstruction plan.

It is bound to find its place on the world stage!

Perkz is the core and cannot be lost. The other four players must be cleared out and replaced with strong players.

Ah P was not very happy at first.

His relationship with these G2 players is really good. But then I agreed half-heartedly.

The reason is that Perkz is not convinced.

After all, he is a European champion, why did he lose his crotch when he went out?

He felt that the strength of his original teammates was indeed embarrassing. They were good in the league, but not good enough on the world stage.

If you give me Gu Xing, Zhu Xiaolong, Imp and Xiao Duan, how can I be in the top 16?

Of course, it is unrealistic to buy them all.

A powerful thug like Imp is very cost-effective. He doesn't have to focus too much on command and can provide a stable output to the team. G2 feels that signing him as a free agent is absolutely worth it!

"Who are the other teammates?" Xiao Duan was very concerned.

"Perkz usually socializes a lot, and I heard that he has good relationships with many European players..."

Gu Shengbin kept talking and became more and more enthusiastic, "I plan to use European Snake's Wunder in the top lane, and I want to buy H2K's Jankos in the jungle!"

Li Zhixun raised his eyebrows, "Are you planning to form a galactic battleship?"

Wunder is not famous, but he is already one of the best top laners in Europe, and he even entered the S6 World Championship with the team!

Not to mention jungler Jankos, as one of the three jungle kings in this World Championship, his strength cannot be underestimated!

"G2's conditions are very generous, and they also let me choose support. Korean support is unsatisfactory!" Gu Shengbin kept croaking.

After cleaning up the original Korean players in the jungle, G2 does have room to buy Korean supports.

In this way, it is better to communicate with Imp in the bottom lane, and it is also a respect for the double crown ADC.

"This lineup will have to at least compete for the eighth place in next year's World Championship," Hongmi commented impartially. "I think the paper strength is quite good."

Ju Shengbin was overjoyed.

The performance was not bad, and the strength of the lineup was good, which made him extremely satisfied.

"Okay," Gu Xing was sincerely happy for Imp, "We all have a bright future!"

Ding Jun finally solved the team's contract renewal issue.

Nosuke remains unchanged, and it is a completely acceptable plan to bring Jack up after Gu Shengbin leaves the team.

The lineup has taken shape.

The next thing he has to consider is signings.

Strong players are required in the middle and upper levels.

After Ding Jun learned that Hou Ye and Zhu Xiaolong retired, he was thinking about suitable candidates to replace them.

It’s really hard to find in the LPL region.

After mid laner Li Zhixun retires, the only ones left are Xiye, Xiaohu, junior brother and Broiler.

IM's Athena is also good.

But each one is the core that each club focuses on cultivating.

If they want to share the cake next year, it is absolutely impossible to give the mid laner to VG to enhance the strength of their competitors!

And only the broiler chickens' contracts have expired.

IG's manager Su Xiaoluo looks stupid, but is actually very shrewd - shrewd from his perspective.

Broilers are the current soul of IG anyway and are not for sale.

Moreover, Song Yijin has a very good relationship with his boss Wang Sicong, and Wang Sicong even pays his salary alone, which does not take up IG’s salary space!

Ding Jun feels that Broiler’s subsequent career should be spent on IG.

It’s totally unrealistic to buy him!

Other than that, there are no better options in the LPL mid lane.

The same goes for top laners, there are no top players that can be bought.

In order to ensure the team's hard strength, Ding Jun can only consider signings from outside the competition area.

I probably have the answer in my mind.

However, he did not make any decision on his own, but turned to discuss it with his team members.

Ding Jun knows that the level of his league is limited and he cannot clearly see the players' strength and style positioning.

Since the players have specialized skills, it is reasonable to give them a say in selecting their teammates for next year.

When asked by his boss, Gu Xing blurted out, "How are the people at ROX?"

The Tigers will be disbanded immediately, and as a free agent there is no transfer fee, which can save a lot of money.

Moreover, the strength is sufficient, and both parties know the basics.

"Smeb?" Ding Jun has also thought about this candidate, "I will talk to him when the LCK transfer period starts, but Smeb may not come..."

The transfer period time in each major competition area is not exactly the same, but the range is similar.

China, the U.S. and Europe started relatively early. South Korea’s Kespa Cup schedule is a bit delayed and will not officially start until early tomorrow morning.

Ding Jun has some confidence in inviting Smeb to join, but he doesn't dare to guarantee it.

Smeb is the first player in the unit in S6 throughout the year. After returning to his free agent status, there must be many teams who want to get involved!

"Add me," Gu Xing felt that he could play a role, shine for VG, and find himself a strong teammate, "I have a good relationship with Smeb, maybe it will work wonders."

Ding Jun had no reason to refuse. He looked up at the time and said, "I'm almost busy. Go back to bed!"

However, this move was firmly opposed by Gu Shengbin.

He insists on asking for a bottle of wine to celebrate his success in the European competition next year.

Ding Jun couldn't resist him, so he had to agree.

A group of people from the VG training department ran to the balcony of the room, enjoying the late autumn evening breeze of Wuhan, chatting about the future.

"When I get married in the next year, is there anyone who wants to be my best man?" Allen Chu asked cheerfully.

"I'll do it!" Xiao Duan raised his hand first.

He has no relationship with his family and would rather not go back during the Chinese New Year.

Now that I see a valid reason, I am naturally very positive.

The topic was instantly opened, and everyone started discussing it. Hongmi, who was already married, asked about domestic marriage customs and habits, and wanted to compare them with those in South Korea.

Gu Xing took out his mobile phone and looked at his current image.

The shaking red wine glass, the lips seem to be stained with blood...

It was his first time to drink red wine. Ding Jun opened a bottle and gave each person a small half glass, just as a token of appreciation.

The amount was so small that Gu Xing didn't even feel anything.

The Imp next to him looked slightly tipsy.

Ju Shengbin looked at the urban agglomeration in the distance. The Wuhan Sports Center, the German Cup venue, was not far away. There were no other buildings blocking it and he could see it at a glance.

The initial ecstasy of receiving the notification from G2 gradually faded, and now he feels lost.

Gu Xing noticed that Imp's mood was not right.

Patting the other person's thick and round shoulder, he caught Gu Shengbin's attention.

"What's wrong?" Imp asked without looking back.

"You know, the group stage venue for next year's World Championship is also the one in front of you."

Two days ago, Riot Games announced the host city and venue for the S7 World Championship.

Wuhan Sports Center is responsible for the schedule before the knockout rounds.

Gu Shengbin didn't pay attention to the news, but now he was quite curious, "What happens next?"

Gu Xing looked at the sports center that looked like a giant beast entrenched in the dark night, and slowly said, "I hope we can meet in this venue by then."

Ju Shengbin understood what he meant and looked back at Gu Xing. He had red curly hair and a smile that looked very much like his high-spirited self back then.

"Then it's settled, we will be in this venue next year and we will not miss our appointment."

My partner and I went out for a meal of fish head with chopped peppers and iced beer. When we came back, I was diagnosed with gastroenteritis. I took some montmorillonite powder, but I don’t know if it helped.

The transfer period is almost over tomorrow, with a little drama left at most. 6k words, 14.81w
