Starting with Zaozi Ge, a dream lineup

Chapter 111 The Champion Puzzle? The Coach?
In today's society where performance is king, performance-based agreements can be seen in almost every industry.

Even some film productions require signing performance-based agreements, with payment based on performance.

The owner of X Fish is a smart man; clearly, this contract is his real purpose.

Having just won the championship, the RNG team is bound to be incredibly ambitious. In addition, with various platforms being a mixed bag, retaining these players will definitely require some effort.

The starting price of this contract would be astronomical by outsiders, but it's still significantly less than the previous one.

Uzi's signing fee was 6000 million, while the signing fees for the others were halved.

However, the subsequent series of weighted conditions look much more tempting.

For the Demacia Cup champion, RNG will pay an additional 100 million RMB to each of the five players on top of the signing fee.

Given the current strength of RNG's second team, this 100 million is practically free; they've definitely made a profit.

The Spring Split champion, Uzi, received 1500 million RMB, while his teammates received 300 million RMB each.

MSI champion, Uzi has 1500 million RMB, and his teammates have 300 million RMB each.

Summer Split champion, Uzi gets 1000 million, other teammates get 200 million.

The S-series champion, Uzi, received 100 million, while his teammates received 20 million.

For other global competitions, participants can receive a weighted prize of 200-1000 million, depending on the importance of the competition, as stipulated in Articles 3-5.
According to this contract, if RNG can win all the aforementioned titles in the S8 season, then Uzi can earn at least 200 million yuan.

Other team members also have a minimum score of 3000 million.

Howe!
Generous!

He's a big gambler!

This is Li Luo's first impression of the current owner of X Fish. You know, the signing fee alone is so high, not to mention that each champion reduces the percentage of gift revenue.

If they win the championship, then the gifts from both sides will be split, with Uzi receiving 28% and the other team members receiving 37%.

X Fish is now determined to capitalize on the traffic generated by winning the first League of Legends championship, and they have chosen to painfully return the direct benefits that the players could have brought to RNG.

To sign or not to sign?
Li Luo couldn't make this decision, since Bai Xing still held a larger share of the club's shares. He would have to discuss it with Bai Xing before signing the contract.

"Okay, Chou Kai, I've put the contract down. It's interesting. If we can sign it, I'll give you my WeChat ID to contact me, okay?"

Upon hearing Li Luo's words, Chou Kai, who was still in a daze, was startled awake from a dream. He stood up abruptly, then realized something was amiss and smiled sheepishly.

"OK, OK, no rush, take your time looking at it. There's no need to give me a result today. You need to read the contract carefully these days, otherwise it'll be a real hassle to argue about it later."

With the major matter settled, Grandpa Kai breathed a sigh of relief.

Before he arrived, the person in charge of X Fish told him that as long as Uzi could accept the second contract today, there would be no major problems.

If they're unwilling to accept, X Fish doesn't have the ability to recruit more people, so they can only wish them well!
Now that things are halfway done, he can't help but be excited.

Arriving at the base's bar, they found wine glasses and poured two glasses of red wine, the kind only the upper class could afford. Starting with S3, the two began to talk about the past.

Although Li Luo accepted the memories of Uzi and the old Royal Never Give Up, he would not recall them without specific conditions.

This is also a systemic protection mechanism; once too many memories are crammed into the brain, it can easily cause personality confusion in two people.

Most of the time, it was Grandpa who did the talking, from how the team was so impressive in the training matches to how after the first match, everyone was broke, so they went to the supermarket to buy 10 yuan worth of braised eggs to celebrate and shared them.

After reminiscing, both of them were filled with emotion. Chou Kai reminisced about his youthful days as a professional player, regretting that he hadn't continued preparing until S7 and accompanied Uzi to win the championship.

Li Luo lamented the hardships Uzi faced in his early years.

Back in Season 2, the rules and benefits of League of Legends esports were not yet fully developed. Even if you joined a club, you would only earn less than 5,000 yuan a month, which was pitifully little.

Even their usual training base was a small internet cafe where they would sit together and practice.

It wasn't until Season 3 that League of Legends came into the view of more people, and the living environment improved. The base was spacious, the computers were new, and the internet speed was smooth.

For a teenager addicted to the internet, the latter two are sufficient.

As they were talking, Li Luo decided he didn't want to wait any longer and made a call to Bai Xing, asking him to take a look at the contract.

Little did he know that Bai Xing had already received the news and was currently pretending to patrol the base, waiting for Wu Wukai to leave so he could come in and see the contract.

Apart from XFish, the other platforms all handed him contracts. As long as he compared them, he knew in his heart where RNG should go.

Bai Xing arrived in a hurry, jogging over.

"You guys talk business first, I'll wait here, it's fine."

Seeing Bai Xing approach, the two greeted each other, leaving Wu Wukai to drink alone, while the two went into the office next door.

"Take a look at this contract. I've checked the prices. The last one they gave me was 100 million. The others were generally okay."

One hundred million yuan did not arouse the slightest interest in Bai Xing, who was reviewing the betting contract. In fact, Bai Xing's expression did not change at all, as if one hundred million yuan was not money.

"That's interesting, that's interesting."

Seeing the weighted rewards that came with each championship, Shirahoshi finally showed a somewhat amused smile.

"Little dog, are you confident? If not, how about we find a permanent contract? X-Dai's offer isn't low either, a little over 120 million."

Knowing that Shirahoshi's tactic was naive, he was now eyeing the contract with X Fish.

However, businessmen value risk aversion. If Uzi himself doesn't have confidence, signing him would be like throwing money into the Huangpu River.

"We can sign him. Feng is going to be the manager now, right? Hart isn't suitable to be the head coach. His style can't carry a team. We need to win all the championships, and we still need to find a piece of the puzzle."

"There's another piece of the puzzle? Haven't we already brought in two substitutes?"

"But honestly, you have a really sharp eye. I took some time to watch their scrims these past few days. Mole was alright, but Tian is a really strong player."

When it comes to strength, Bai Xing didn't forget to give a thumbs up. In his opinion, the fact that Xiao Tian could give such an evaluation means that Xiao Tian's current potential or his apparent strength is no less than Xiang Guo's.

"These two substitutes are only there to secure our championship before the S8 World Championship. If we really want to compete with other top teams in the world, Hart's tactics won't work, even if Feng comes."

"Their styles are too easy to figure out, and we need to acquire a coach who can not only skillfully implement our 'four protect one' strategy, but also develop offensive tactics."

Li Luo's confident demeanor only fueled Bai Xing's curiosity.

"who is it?"

Without answering, Li Luo first led Bai Xing to look at where Grandpa Kai was sitting, then gestured towards the office door with his lip.

"Fuck!"
