Chapter 699: Smlz Jealous OMP
The response caused by defeating FNC and advancing to the semi-finals was not as great as that of the third teaching game.

After all, in terms of pre-match winning rate, Top Esports was much higher than FNC. Even European audiences only fantasized about FNC performing well in the game, and not many people were optimistic about FNC's shocking upset.

Extranet.

Well-known European commentator sjokz commented on G2's victory and FNC's elimination:

"G2 won by unity and on-the-spot adjustments. As Perkz said in response to the upset, after losing to RNG in the first game, they chose to trust Jankos and no longer fixed his ideas. This was the core factor in G2's - victory over RNG.

As for TES, they are different from RNG. As the absolute overlord, they have too many tactical reserves. Not only can they play mid, jungle and support, but they can also play four-one split push. Even the four-protect-one strategy, which seems to be the least good at, is very competitive...

So don't feel disappointed...

One day, we will see three European teams in the quarterfinals."

The content expressed in the article is quite optimistic.

This is normal.

Just like LGD's 16-0 win over SKT in 3, which excited the capital market, the rise of a region is always accompanied by achievements and confidence. In other words, although FNC lost, - is a bit embarrassing, they beat TES, who looked at Qingshen in foreign wars.

Judging from the overall score.

FNC occupies 2 places in the four major regions, among which G2 advanced to the semi-finals, and FNC lost to the favorite for the championship. If we don’t open the champagne at this time, when will we open it?

As the biggest winner, Carlos has been laughing so hard these past two days that he kisses the RNG team logo every day when he wakes up.

Why?

RNG's official blog received 80 likes, and G2's Twitter account received 500 million likes! Overnight, G2 became the most dazzling star in the European e-sports market, draining the basic market of passers-by.

this day.

Conference call.

Carlos sat on the hotel balcony, discussing financing with several shareholders.

As a club founded 14 years ago, G2's growth has already entered the fast lane. The number of cooperation calls it received in the past two days is more than in the past two years.

“…How much?”

Jens Hilgers, one of the founders, was the first to speak: "If each branch wants to make some progress next year, it will need a budget of at least 50 million. Judging from the current sponsorship cooperation, it is far from enough."

Jens Hilgers is ambitious.

After defeating RNG and gaining huge reputation, they wanted to expand and become a powerful e-sports team and excel in multiple fields.

"I do not care."

Another founder is fed up with the e-sports industry: "If I have to raise funds, I will sell everything."

"Have you ever thought about what to do if the newcomer is difficult to deal with? He will mess up our business!" Jens Hilgers looked at his good brother and said, "For the sake of our friendship over the years, leave a little symbolic amount."

"..."

"Okay."

Jens Hilgers asked again, "How much should we raise? I prefer to raise 5000 million and use this money to fill the gaps. Carlos, you are not optimistic about the bottom lane, this money is enough for us to build an all-star team."

Jens Hilgers said the plan: "5000 million, give up 20% of the equity." Then, he looked at another partner: "After your equity is diluted, I will introduce another person to buy your equity."

"I'm OK."

Carlos also counted his own gains.

After the capital increase and share expansion is completed, G2's valuation will reach 2.5 million, and its 18% stake will be diluted to 14.4%. The problem is... the shares are more valuable!
Carlos' heart warmed up at the thought.

As a former club executive who has transformed himself into a professional, he is increasingly convinced that e-sports is a bright future. At least for someone like him, the e-sports cake is quite sweet and can demonstrate his professionalism.

"So, any thoughts on next year's lineup?"

The partners looked over, Carlos collected his thoughts, and said seriously: "The bottom lane must be changed. It's not that RNG is arrogant, but they definitely can't win. The next ones are the mid, top, and jungle..."

Thinking of the upper half, Carlos added, "By the way, Caps' contract is about to expire, we can find someone to contact him."

"You want to replace Perkz?" The founder who wanted to quit asked in confusion: "Why, you and Perkz are so close? Besides, he is the hero who defeated RNG."

friendship?

If you want to become big and strong, you must be ruthless!

Carlos, as a shareholder of the team, said: "If possible, I don't want to change, but he can't beat Caps - results don't lie, if we sign Caps, the mid and jungle power leveling alone can help us dominate the league.

In addition, Wunder + Jankos is definitely better than Bwi + Broxah, they are just double carries who can provide more protection. "

Carlos thought for a few seconds and gave his opinion: "Even... Rekkles is not the key. He is basically invisible in the unfavorable game. He is just an egg."

Speaking of eggs, Carlos suddenly came up with an idea to achieve the best of both worlds: "Got it! I'll find a chance to convince Perkz to switch, so that I can win over old fans and bring in new ones!"

"As expected of you!"

The founder admired: "Caps has more fans than the other four teammates. If we recruit him, how can other clubs compete with us?"

With two star mid laners.

This passerby must be a hit!

The more everyone thought about it, the more excited they became. They couldn't wait to see such a scene happen. After all, they had already seen the traffic-drawing ability of star mid laners in Faker and Penicillin.

End the meeting.

The major shareholder went to negotiate sponsorship with the brands, while Carlos went to lay the groundwork for the topic and increase the club's exposure.

At a golf course, the owner of G2 revealed the financing situation, implying that G2 was becoming more and more successful and was becoming a hot topic, and asked if more support could be given.

“…You guys never planned for conversion rate when sponsoring.”

“Looking at the growth rate, there is still a lot of room for development in the European market!”

Taking out the world championship data compiled by a third-party research agency commissioned by Riot, the G2 boss argued: "Esports is the NBA that is more in line with the tastes of young people.

It may be in the 60s now, and the coverage is not high, but it will eventually grow into the 80s.”

The brand owner smiled vaguely: "There is still a gap of 60 years between the 80s and the 20s. Maybe in 20 years, brain-computer technology will be mature."

“How could it take 20 years?”

“Look at this growth rate… maybe in four or five years, the e-sports market will be very hot.”

The G2 boss mentioned some relevant data and said, "Look at France and Denmark. They were barren a few years ago, but now the stadiums are selling out tickets. And as e-sports develops, it will only sink further into the young market.

The NBA is getting worse year by year, isn’t it just the impact of the diversion of e-sports? "

The brand owner was stunned for a moment, then said, "According to what you said, I should increase my support for LPL, as the development momentum there is obviously better."

"We are our own people!"

"In terms of skin color, yes."

The brand owner smiled and said, "The problem is that the advertising effect was not good in the past few years. Why didn't you say this when it was purely for charity? Oh, it seems that now that the attention is high and the masses have been trained, you think you are good enough and qualified to come and talk."

This is a bit heartbreaking.

But it's true.

It's not that I see the market getting better and my ambitions are expanding, but they can't expand. Also, some brands offer better conditions, so I think big brands can make more gold coins.

Seeing that the G2 boss was speechless, the boss swung his club and said calmly: "Forget it, it's not easy for you to come here, I'll give you some extra points next year."

~~~
Twitter.

Carlos, as the leader of G2, suddenly had an idea and announced to the public that there would be big moves next year. He boasted that G2 was favored by many people and was set to become the number one in the industry.

"real or fake?"

Carlos replied: "True."

"What big move?"

Carlos: “It was a little bit difficult this year, but I will try to win next year.”

"Next year? Can we play against TES next year?"

Passersby looked skeptical.

"Look!"

Carlos's bold statement attracted a lot of ridicule, but most people thought he was joking.

That night.

IG beat C9 5-2 and advanced to the semi-finals... Caps was still in the hotel, emoting about how passive he was in yesterday's BO and how he could improve his chances of winning, when he suddenly received two messages.

"Join us. G2 needs you!"

Caps: ???
After the question mark was over, Carlos began to talk about the current situation of European LOL, believing that it is necessary to unite the strongest forces in order to compete with other top teams.

Then, Carlos changed the subject and said that you are the Ouyi Middle School in my mind, and when you come, you will be the big brother of the team.

Caps admitted that he was a little tempted.

Again, all players have their own judgment. When he met Xiaoyang in the ranking match, he really had a good time, while Broxah was more of a babysitter and couldn't put in a more substantial performance.

and so…

He couldn't help but wonder, if Xiao Yang was in charge of the jungle in yesterday's BO5, would Xiao Huasheng still be able to eat up every game and reach the level of a dragon? The words of uniting the strongest combat power are quite deceptive.

He certainly doesn't think he is worse than Perkz. If he went to G2, teaming up with top laner Warcraft and Tempo Lamb, the top half of the league would look stable and there would be no need to rush to force a team fight.

Although he was moved, Caps still said reservedly: "FNC treats me very well... I don't want to..."

Carlos: "I understand! How about 220 million euros? It's worthy of your status in Europe No. Middle School!"

North America is a famous retirement destination. The annual salary of a slightly higher-end player is over 30 US dollars. Europe is not that rich, and the capital wave has just begun. 220 million euros is already on par with the international level.

Let's say that.

If a list of annual salaries of LOL players were to be published, the 18 million Euros in 220 would be enough to put him in the top 10, which is already more than the annual salary of many championship players.

Carlos continued to persuade: "This is just the first contract. We will train you to become a big star, a figure like Faker and Penicillin."

G2 is good at making things happen, giving people the feeling that the atmosphere within the team is very good.

Caps' heart rate suddenly increased and his mouth became dry at the thought of joining such a big family.

"Give me a moment, I'll think about it."

"What are you still hesitating about? FNC doesn't have the same kind of hands as us. If you don't believe me, you can try to find out the terms of the contract extension."

Caps did so under the warm invitation.

The problem is that FNC didn't know that their main player wanted to leave, and they didn't know that G4, which was founded 2 years ago, had raised a huge amount of money. So... when FNC negotiated, it was inevitable that they would set performance as a step constraint.

"180 million, guaranteed to be in the top eight of the S-League."

FNC felt that this condition was not excessive.

Even if they don't make any progress or regression next year, they can still get the full annual salary, not to mention if they make it to the finals, they can get another bonus. If we really have to compare, FNC's configuration is worse than G2, so if they want to achieve results, they should be given more money.

The FNC manager didn't know what Caps was thinking. Seeing Caps' silence, he thought he was very touched: "As long as you renew your contract, you will surpass Perkz and become the most valuable mid laner. Perform well, FNC will not treat you unfairly."

Caps: …

What’s the point of being worth more than Perkz?

The goal is to be on par with Penicillin!
Caps made up his mind and left politely. On the way back to the room, he saw Bibabu approaching him and he rarely pushed away Bibabu's dirty hands.

Bibab was very puzzled and thought, that couldn't be the case, he hasn't recovered from the defeat yet?

~~~
The semi-final list is released.

Brother Mai took a day off and took Topsports to the Busan Aquarium.

Subsequently.

A passerby posted photos, which sparked discussion among netizens.

"Haha, there's still time to play. It would be funny if we lose to KT."

"We've been in Busan for so long, what's wrong with just one day of fun?"

"That's right. The semi-finals will be held in Gwangju, but that place is in the countryside and there's nowhere to go if we want to have fun." Every country has a city contempt chain, and there is no doubt that Gwangju is in the middle and lower reaches of this chain.

The stereotype is vulgar, rustic, and peasant.

Just like that.

Although Mai Ge is a recognized target of criticism on the Korean Internet, he has won the recognition of people in big cities when it comes to visiting Busan.

The relevant comments were forwarded back to the country.

Even the LPL audience was confused, wondering why the Korean Internet was not as shameless as before. However, after understanding the contempt chain, they realized that these voices were just regional criticism and did not represent their approval of Top Esports.

"Got it, loyalty!"

“Regional blackness knows no region or skin color.”

"middle!"

"It's still in the middle. Aren't we also working tirelessly in Henan and Northeast China?"

"Nonsense, with a good economic development, they can naturally control the mouthpiece. In South Korea, Seoul despises everything. They are all country bumpkins."

"Bad, we won't be beaten six times per second in Gwangju, right? We have to protect the players."

"OMP is from Gwangju, and there are local bosses there."

"Snake Hook and OMP are not active in Korea, so they don't have any local connections. Do you think the e-sports association will allow them to play? They don't even invite them to events."

"..."

Let’s talk about IMP.

WeChat group.

Dalang and others were happy to watch the show, and they talked about the interview and subsequent comments from netizens whenever they had nothing to do, causing IMP to tag Qin Hao in various ways.

"Who's stronger, me or smlz?"

"say!"

"Who are you partnering with to make you feel comfortable?"

Qin Hao:......

broken.

Coming towards me.

Qin Hao: "You, you, you, I'm sure you."

OMP is not so easy to coax: "When Wo was here, you praised Wo. It's been less than a year since Wo left and you praised him... On stage, you still look at him!"

There is a close-up on the Internet. When smlz was answering a question, Qin Hao tilted his head and looked at him, as if encouraging smlz to make bold statements.

"Then let me see who it is."

"You're not being honest! You just said you wanted to play with me!"

"I'm playing with you."

"Then don't praise him next time! Don't praise him in front of the media!"

Eimy: !!!
Why does the words sound like a domineering president?

A group of people giggled and watched Qin Hao coaxing and signing various unequal treaties.

But Qin Hao said on Weibo: "Why do some people think our bottom lane is a weakness? In this version, Deft is not that strong."

This Weibo post is just a response to netizens' horse racing ranking method.

After all, everyone thinks that smlz will be suppressed by Deft and is worried that the bottom lane will be destroyed, but Qin Hao thinks that netizens think too much, and he also doesn't want smlz to see such low-level remarks on Weibo.

As a result, I didn't pay attention.

Xiaoqun was tagged ten times by OMP: "I am so pissed off, do you still have a place?"

"Pfft, what's wrong with you?"

Qin Hao pretended not to understand: "…Posting on Weibo does not count as bragging in front of the media, so it is not a violation."

“It will be reprinted!”

"..."

"Pfft, I can't do it anymore."

Big Dog laughed very funny: "Damn IMP is jealous of smlz." In the e-sports hotel, Big Dog shared the melon with his commentator colleagues.

“You still have a group.”

"correct."

"Why does IMP speak like a domineering president? Has he watched too many short videos?" Miller couldn't stop laughing.

"No, he's not good at expressing himself, and as he was talking, it became a choice between two options."

"No wonder."

"Fuck, Hao is begging for mercy like crazy."

"Please, look at what was posted on Weibo."

"666666."

Qin Hao's bold move made everyone laugh.

It's not appropriate to beg for mercy and then take advantage of a text bug.

Ai Loli was listening nearby, and seeing PYL surrounded by a small group of high-level players, she was particularly envious of the way the championship team got along with each other.

Unfortunately.

Ai Loli has never met a person as capable of joking and thoughtful as Qin Hao. Even the factory director is not so casual to get along with.
