City: Become a principal from junior college!

Chapter 206: Here comes the opportunity for the animation sub-major to become famous!

In front of everyone, the guests and hosts talked about the details of the cooperation with the brokerage company.

After each determines the investment ratio and confirms the share occupied.

The business negotiation part is over.

Everyone started to eat, and they all praised the dishes at Xingchen Restaurant.

They all lamented the magic of Star Academy.

There is no need to say more about the culinary arts major at Star College.

The popularity of Star Restaurant is proof of this.

As for the e-sports major, the students trained also won the championship in the first year and swept the world championships.

After that, it will change the ecology of the entire professional league.

It all feels incredible.

Ye Chen smiled slightly when he heard the compliment.

Now the employment problems of students majoring in culinary arts and e-sports have been solved.

Then the next step is animation major.

Although animation students have previously recognized the drawing skills of Xingchen Animation students due to infringement incidents and the popularity of mini programs.

But this wave of popularity is actually only domestic.

Globally, Xingchen Animation major is actually not well-known.

After all, the world talks about the animation industry.

Island countries cannot be avoided at all.

Animation academy in the island country.

It is also the first choice for young people who want to learn animation.

It can be called the holy land of animation.

As for the Xingchen animation major, it is inconspicuous compared to it, and the gap is huge.

In the eyes of outsiders, it is not a level at all.

But Ye Chen is very confident about this.

Soon, the mecca of anime will no longer be the anime academy of the island nation.

Our own Star Academy will be promoted to a new animation holy land.

But before, students only showed off their drawing skills.

Mainly students majoring in comics are performing.

Although students majoring in animation also study art, they mainly focus on learning modeling.

There is no chance to perform yet.

But now the end of the semester is approaching.

It’s time for students majoring in animation to show their skills to the outside world.

And now, there is a good opportunity.

This opportunity is this year’s championship skin design and production.

For the championship team of the League of Legends World Championship, each player will receive an officially designed exclusive championship skin.

This is an honor reserved exclusively for world champions.

The official will also use a portion of the sales of the skins to distribute to the players as bonuses.

And because the champion skin is bound to the team.

Therefore, the champion skin every year attracts special attention from the player community.

Very memorable.

Don’t buy too many players.

Many fans regard this as a way to support the players.

If you are a student majoring in animation, you can start designing and making this year's championship skin.

As long as the quality is high enough.

That will undoubtedly be recognized by players around the world.

He might even get out of the industry because of it.

After all, the League of Legends e-sports competition may only have a maximum of [-] million viewers worldwide.

But there are too many League of Legends players.

A full [-] million.

The reason for such disparity.

It’s because many people only play games and don’t watch games.

However, although players do not pay attention to the game.

But I definitely care about my skin.

If we can get the rights to produce and design this champion’s skin.

The Xingchen Animation major will definitely be able to take advantage of this wave of popularity and gain recognition in front of the world.

Influence greatly increased.

The level of students will also be paid attention to. .

Do it when you think of it.

It just so happened that the CEO of Riot Games was sitting opposite.

Ye Chen put down his chopsticks and told Riot Games' CEO all his thoughts.

And when I heard Ye Chen's words.

The CEO of Riot Games frowned slightly.

He is happy to see the success of cooperating with Star Academy to establish a player management company.

After all, Star Academy can cultivate a large number of high-quality e-sports talents. .

It has huge benefits for the development of the entire league.

The league just needs to get better and better.

Then the game League of Legends can remain prosperous and popular forever.

But cooperating with the animation major of Star Academy to create championship skins together?
This made him hesitate!
League of Legends is definitely the most popular free game in the world.

In 2022 alone, game revenue will reach US$17 billion.

Equivalent to almost 120 billion yuan.

And 90.00% of this income comes from selling skins.

From this we can see the importance of game skins to League of Legends revenue.

The champion skin every year, due to the popularity of the World Championship, is definitely one of the highest-selling skins that year.

This kind of skin has huge benefits.

Riot Games takes it very seriously.

Make it your most important task every year.

And this year’s champion skin.

On the day Star Academy won the championship, the company had already initiated the project and started conceiving and designing it.

With an extremely excellent art team at home.

It is impossible for the CEO of Riot Games to cooperate with Star Academy.

After all, if a skin is to be sold, the most important thing is to look good and have cool special effects.

Although he knew that Xingchen Academy had an animation major, he did not trust Xingchen students to design good-looking hero skins.

Riot CEO was about to refuse.

However, after this dinner, Star Academy has become the most important partner and talent supplier of League of Legends.

So refuse politely.

Riot CEO thought for a moment before speaking carefully, "We at Riot don't know much about the level of animation majors in your school..."

"But since the principal has spoken, we will definitely focus on the students of your school in the future!"

"If there is an opportunity for cooperation, we will definitely look for Star Academy!"

Saying this is like inviting you to dinner next time.

There is absolutely no credibility.

……

Riot CEO refused.

But Vice President Penguin's eyes lit up after hearing Principal Ye's proposal.

The Riot boss doesn’t know, but he knows it.

The level of Xingchen students is indeed very strong.

I have several gaming groups at home, but because the artists are not good enough, the pictures I provide cannot satisfy them.

They made appointments with Xingchen animation students on the Xingchen manuscript appointment app.

The resulting artwork was well received.

It is enough to show the art skills of Xingchen students.

And more importantly.

Asking Star Animation students to create championship skins for their own academy’s team is a great gimmick, isn’t it?
When the skin comes out, as long as the quality is not bad.

Not to mention other competition regions, but it will definitely sell well in China.

Isn’t that income rolling in?

Penguin is both the parent company of Riot Games and the operator of the Chinese Division.

If the skin sells well, Penguin will undoubtedly be the biggest winner.

So he is particularly interested in this cooperation.

Hearing the CEO's refusal, Dang even introduced with a smile: "The Xingchen animation major is very popular in China. The students' drawing skills have been recognized by the public and the game industry."

"Even the most popular game production team of Genshin Impact in the past two years, which is famous for its beautiful painting style, has extended an olive branch to Star Students."

"We at Penguin have some game project teams that also cooperate with Xingchen students."

"Look, these are the works of Xingchen students..."

While talking, Vice President Penguin used his mobile phone to display the gallery in the mini program.

After scanning a dozen pictures.

Riot CEO looked surprised.

If these works are really created by Xingchen students.

The students majoring in Xingchen Animation are pretty good.

But even if I know that Xingchen Animation students are pretty good.

Riot CEO is still not too keen on this cooperation.

Although Riot was acquired by Xunteng.

But the decision-making power is still in the hands of Riot senior executives.

Therefore, although Riot CEO’s attitude was tactful, he still refused: “The level of Xingchen Animation major students really exceeded my expectations.”

"However, the skins of League of Legends are not just plane drawings, but need to be modeled." "The drawing level of Xingchen students is indeed high, but their level of character modeling may be difficult to meet the requirements of our Riot Games."

"After all, drawing a beautiful plane graphic and designing an excellent 3D skin model are not at the same level of difficulty."

"And our own art team at Riot Games has a lot of experience in the industry."

"Obviously this is more secure."

"But I think Xingchen students have great potential in the future."

"If possible, Riot Games is willing to wait until the first class of Star Animation students graduate to conduct school recruitment..."

……

For the other party's rejection.

Ye Chen had already expected this.

After all, a large game company like Riot will definitely not easily include champion skins in key projects and leave them to outsiders to design.

You will feel at ease only if you do it yourself.

But Ye Chen never expected that the other party would agree directly.

The reason for speaking.

I just want to give students in my own animation sub-major an opportunity to showcase themselves.

Therefore, Ye Chen said calmly: "First of all, the modeling and design level of our students is definitely similar to the painting level."

"The Star Team won the championship this year, and the popularity is high."

"If this year's skin is handed over to Star Academy for production and a cooperation is reached with Star Animation, it will undoubtedly bring more discussion and popularity around the world."

"It will lead to higher sales after the skin is put on the shelves in the future."

"Secondly, Star Team's championship this time is, after all, the first all-Chinese team to win the championship, which is of great significance to China."

"So this time the champion skin must be linked to Chinese elements, otherwise it will easily make Chinese players dissatisfied."

“Xingchen Animation students are all Chinese and understand their country’s culture better!”

"The skin produced will undoubtedly have more Chinese characteristics in terms of aesthetics and style."

"And most importantly, your company does not need to make a decision now."

"It's enough to give our Xingchen Animation major students a chance to show themselves first."

"If by then, the skins produced by the students are excellent, satisfying and stunning, they will be recognized by domestic players!"

"Then there is no reason for your company not to choose a better one..."

"And if the students' works do not meet your company's requirements."

"Then your company can completely abandon it and use the skins designed by its own art department."

"It's a win-win situation for both of us!"

"It will not harm any interests of Riot Games."

“On the contrary, this allows your company to have more choices and gain more attention and popularity.”

"..."

Riot CEO listened to Ye Chen's words and looked thoughtful.

Because what Principal Xingchen said is indeed very reasonable.

It moved his heart.

After all, if both parties cooperate.

It can indeed bring a wave of popularity and make this year's champion skin even more anticipated by players.

Second.

This is indeed the first time that an all-Chinese class from China has won the championship.

As the most important market for League of Legends, China has now won the championship.

In terms of skin design, it does need to have more Chinese characteristics.

If Star Animation students have enough skills, they might be able to design skins that are more in line with Chinese culture.

of course.

Regarding this, Riot CEO has no expectations.

However, Xingchen students are all young and from China.

There are definitely a lot of good ideas.

The art department of our own Riot Games company can totally use some creativity for free.

However, Principal Ye said it all.

In this collaboration, it is not necessary to use skins designed by Xingchen students.

Then we can definitely take advantage of this wave of popularity to increase players' expectations for champion skins.

For Riot Games, the pros outweigh the cons.

As long as the marketing is done well.

This year’s championship skin sales may set a new record.

As for what Star Academy wants.

Riot CEO has seen it.

The young Principal Ye in front of him only wanted to make a name for the students, build momentum, and think about their future.

This completely puts the students' future first.

Such principals are rare in the world.

Anyway, after thinking it over carefully.

Riot CEO has no hesitation anymore.

After chatting with Principal Xingchen for a few words, the two parties quickly agreed on their intention to cooperate.

To put it simply, the official League of Legends will release a global announcement in the next few days.

Announced that Star Animation students will participate in the design and production of this year’s champion skin.

If the skins designed by Star Animation students can be officially adopted.

That will get you a $100 million bonus.

In this way, the heat will come out naturally.

With the current reputation of Star Academy, it may even break the skin of this year's World Championship.

Absolutely blood.

Next, Riot CEO was obviously more enthusiastic.

In recent years, the development speed of the League of Legends league has slowed down, and the market size is approaching its limit.

After all, e-sports is not accepted by the public in many countries.

Reaching [-] million viewers is almost the limit.

But this year I relied on Star Academy.

The popularity of the League of Legends World Championship has broken through the circle.

Attracted a large number of audiences from other circles.

At the same time, as the academic players trained by the League of Legends enter the league.

It will greatly improve the overall average quality of the players.

Let more people accept e-sports.

And now the skins of the World Championship also have the possibility of breaking the circle.

All this is the credit of Star Academy.

Star Academy is definitely the most important partner of the League of Legends...

……

three days later.

Ye Chen returned to China with the Star Team.

The bus that picked up the airport took Ye Chen and the students to the entrance of the college.

I saw that the gate of Xingchen Academy was already crowded with people.

Many students, holding posters with Star Team members on them, cheered loudly towards the bus.

Someone even made a poster that was at least three meters high with Ye Chen painted on it.

The poster was held high and stood out among the crowd.

As for the inside of Star Academy, there are many students waiting for it.

Although almost four days have passed since the World Championship finals.

But the impact that the Star Team won on the whole country has not dissipated.

Countless fans have long been looking forward to Master Wang's return.

Now Xingchen students get off the bus.

The fans gave them the warmest reception.

This feeling of stars holding the moon is really intoxicating.

Now the five of them are already the most popular e-sports players in the country.

Zhang Yu's asking price has reached 3000 million a year.

It's comparable to Uzi's worth at his peak.

And even the mid laner is recognized as the weakest.

There are also clubs willing to offer an annual salary of 1000 million.

This is the power of winning a championship.

In just one year, you can make money that many people can’t make in a lifetime.

This feeling is simply too cool.

However, while the students were excited, they couldn't help but look at their principal.

They are very clear.

Everything they have today was given by their principal.

What would their lives be like if they didn't come to Star Academy?
It's hard to imagine.

But most of them, like their high school classmates, can only live an ordinary college life.

How can it be like now.

Won three championships in one year and became famous overnight on the world stage.

Become the idol of countless e-sports audiences around the world.

It is even easier to earn a huge annual salary that was previously unimaginable.

Such a life can definitely be regarded as a successful life.

A bright future beckons them again.

Their principal has definitely changed their lives.

I chose to come to Xingchen College to study e-sports.

It is definitely the best decision they have made in their lives.
