I, who love to post on Weibo, have become a professional Tongtian generation

Chapter 741: Evil people still need to be punished by evil people

This project...

They did not disappoint Huya's expectations.

In particular, clips of Chen Hechi appearing in the live stream and participating in live chats triggered secondary dissemination. This was reflected the following day when three related hashtags appeared on Weibo's trending topics list.

The fourth episode happened to be airing at the peak of its popularity, and there were quite a few sharp comments from Bilibili content creators. Saying that everyone was criticizing RNG might be a bit much, but RNG's manager's "no comment" still made many content creators laugh.

This includes Yi Jiang, which calls itself "Royal Mix".

after all…

The RNG manager handled the situation terribly, and with some malicious editing, it easily brings to mind the meme of paying for a job.

Come work for me to train you, you have to pay me a salary...

For this kind of person.

Netizens only had one comment: How shameless!

It was also thanks to the contrast with the RNG manager that Su Xiaoluo's public image improved somewhat. He never expected that after being criticized by netizens for so many days, he could actually be redeemed through RNG.

In this worse world.

No matter how outrageous IG's actions are, it's just about lowering prices and giving rebates. They never considered that they would have to give back what they took, and then face a fear beyond death.

Just like that.

Based on the fourth episode of "Beyond Bar" and the awkwardness during the live broadcast, the comments section was full of praise for Qin Hao and criticism of RNG.

"LPL cannot do without Qing Shen."

"Support the pursuit of justice."

"Can't we learn more from Penicillin? If everyone had Penicillin's attitude, would the LPL be in such a mess?"

"Don't be embarrassed. Compared to the NBA, LPL players are all well-behaved. They can only flirt a little and can't control their genitals, but they don't have the power to force or shoot."

"Hey, someone who knows, has RNG gone mad? They're even going to block this contract?"

"Didn't you watch Qing Shen's live stream last night? Fujii doesn't care about these fancy moves at all, he only cares about selling skins."

"What do you mean by 'not caring'? Does it mean you can legislate or something?"

"Stop talking, I'll hate RNG forever."

"White animal".

"Back then, people laughed at RNG for being blind to let Penicillin go, and the official Weibo account even supported Xiaohu, saying that suitability was the most important thing. Now, it seems like a dark comedy."

"..."

The internet has a long memory.

The initial supportive statements have backfired spectacularly. Not to mention, RNG fans have spoken up for Xiaohu countless times in the past two years to combat bad luck.

result…

We were ready to fight to the death, but Your Majesty was the first to surrender…

RNG's actions have backstabbed the team's fans the most.

It's obvious that anyone who still likes RNG after their team went through a series of setbacks, including being the last mid-laner to fall and having zero MVPs, is either just trying to prove a point or has a very strong bias.

Otherwise, if they were constantly being trampled on by the US and had their citizenship returned by G2, anyone without party loyalty would have run away long ago. The fact that they're still fans now shows true loyalty...

Amid such public outrage.

On the 23rd, whether it was Fujii's instigation or some RNG insiders who couldn't stand it anymore, several esports influencers revealed the inside story of the contract on Weibo.

At the same time, someone posted a chat log in the super topic... In the screenshot, the RNG manager cursed the production team, saying that the production team was addicted to exploiting negative publicity, and also said that Tencent bought trending searches to artificially elevate Qin Hao's status.

Okay...

Originally, few netizens criticized RNG with any meaningful comments, only knowing that Xiaohu couldn't become a free agent. However, people like "e-sports777" subtly indicated that Xiaohu's breach of contract penalty alone amounted to 8 million yuan, not even including the platform's pursuit of accountability.

By 2 p.m.

#ContractTeam# topped the trending searches, and the official Weibo account of "Beyond the Horizon" responded:
Since its broadcast, "Beyond Bar" has garnered a total of 1.2 million views, with an average of over 3 million views per episode, setting numerous records for e-sports reality shows.

Here, we would like to thank Chen Chichi, Qin Hao, Luo Yunxi, Zhang Binbing, and others for bringing us joy...

After showing off his muscles.

The RNG Club stated on behalf of the program team: "In view of some false information circulating online, I would like to promise that we are committed to creating a green, harmonious, healthy and positive online environment. There is no such thing as deliberate smearing or malicious editing."

This announcement, coupled with the trending topic of the contract team, immediately caused a huge uproar online. Even if viewers know that variety shows are edited, where is the standard for malicious intent?
A large number of netizens are discussing this under RNG's official Weibo post.

"It reminds me of Firefox. He left the team and was inexplicably burdened with a non-compete clause, which prevents him from returning to the LPL for two years."

"Holy crap, this is disgusting?"

"Even the coach is blocked?"

"Stop making baseless accusations, RNG doesn't discriminate against Koreans."

"There were no Koreans involved, so Mata is taking the blame."

"Why aren't you getting Zyra, the Windspeaker?"

"I'll just say one thing: is it only the support player who's bad, while everyone else plays really well?"

"..."

However, on the official Weibo account of "Beyond Bar", netizens were mocking something else entirely.

"@RNG, did you get stuck with your contract? Speak up."

"@RNG, where's the malice? Speak up."

"@RNG, smear campaign? Releasing what you said is smear campaign."

"..."

With millions of viewers following the reality show, such accusations in chat have no impact on the production team. Meanwhile, as Bai Xing returned to the RNG base, RNG updated their social media at 6 PM that evening, stating:

What can be done?

Within half an hour of being posted, the number of comments exceeded tens of thousands, demonstrating the extent of public opinion.

"No wonder the RNG manager had the nerve to say 'no comment' during the show; it turns out this is the internal culture of RNG."

"@Fujii, they're practically mocking you right in person, can't you do that?"

"Doesn't RNG know how bad the impact will be?"

"If you ask me, the authorities are too lenient. They should have investigated Bai Xing long ago. I don't believe that Bai Xing's father made his fortune through hard work."

"The native emperor of Gan Province."

"Heaven is watching what people do, just wait and see."

“Every time I hear you guys say ‘wait,’ I feel like the other side is fearless.”

"This Fujii is still bragging about his event management, while people are openly violating the rules and getting away with it."

"I am very pleased to see so many people supporting RNG to get out of the LPL."

"I'll just vent my anger."

"..."

RNG's reputation has been declining, but Bai Xing doesn't seem to care at all.

After all, he worked so hard to market Xiaohu to the entire Chinese team, making him the second-best mid-laner in the country after Penicillin and a popular star, yet he still left just like that.

and so…

He is tired.

He can't stand others taking advantage of him and not appreciating his kindness.

Xiao Hu is like that, Penicillin is like that, and Fujii is like that too. He just wants to become a cesspool, disgusting everyone. He likes the feeling that others can't stand him but can't do anything about it.

Public order and good customs?

That's just for fools.

He's not an animal, why should he care about public opinion?

Even if the whole internet criticizes him, will it affect his luxury cars and beautiful women?

He used to put on an act because he wanted to make something of himself, but now he's ruined it. He's tired of losing to G2, so there's no need for him to pander to fans and pretend to be very humane.

The bell rings.

Bai Xing frowned and turned on the speakerphone. Fujii's voice, filled with gritted teeth, came through: "Why did you post such a Weibo? Don't you think you're already angry enough?"

If his performance on the show could be categorized as being stubborn, then this "So what?" Weibo post is a blatant provocation.

"Following the contract... makes RNG guilty? They were all smiles when they signed, but now that they can't leave, they're complaining. This is no way to show favoritism."

The tone on the other end became a little more serious: "Don't play with fire. If you make things difficult for those above, none of us will be able to play anymore."

Bai Xing remained calm: "So what? Even if LPL is gone, there's still KPL." The representative took a slow breath and offered new terms: "...We can pay the breach of contract penalty, but the guild contract must be terminated."

"No."

"???"

"With this 8 million, we could compete for the S championship again." The representative was very puzzled.

They tried to communicate with Douyu and Xiaohu himself, and finally managed to raise some money. They offered to buy RNG as a concession, and then slowly deal with RNG later. However, Baixing still disagreed.

“8 million is already a lot. Have you spent that much on him (Xiaohu)?” The representative unconsciously added with a hint of skepticism: “I’ll say it again, making a big fuss will not do RNG any good.”

Faced with this question, Bai Xing smiled and said, "And then?"

The representative's anger finally broke through his defenses: "You surnamed Yao, if we really have to part ways, you'll be the one who regrets it!"

There have always been voices within Fujii that believe RNG is a model team, and that Shirahoshi was just angry for a moment, so they didn't take much action.

after all…

Just because something can't be avoided in the contract doesn't mean pressure can't be exerted in other areas.

Just as Qin Hao was recording the fifth episode and the trainees were getting better and better at controlling the game, Tencent.com was the first to dig into the story behind RNG.

[Shocking! RNG has a criminal record, guidance code 384!]

Unraveling the mystery of the Yao family's rise to power.

[All-Chinese team, or local tyrants?]

……

While netizens are still discussing the exorbitant breach of contract penalties and the labor union, an undercurrent is circulating online pointing directly at the Shirahoshi family.

Especially on social media, they dare to use any headline they want, drastically damaging RNG's image. After all, contract issues are just a matter of imperfect regulations and bullying the weak, but the term "local tyrant" is deadly in China.

Ironically, this local tyrant actually had a case study to follow: between 02 and 03, he registered a shell taxi company to transfer benefits to a public official.

The specific method involves fabricating business transactions. Even though the company doesn't own a single taxi, it returns the money to the son of a public official every year according to the car rental contract.

Just look at this news item.

Netizens can easily conjure up an image of collusion between XX and XX, a black crow.

But on Zhihu.

Some industry insiders are quite dismissive of such undercurrents, since Fujii knows best about Shirahoshi's background check, and the fact that they dare to cooperate suggests that there are no major problems.

If you don't dwell on your first pot of gold.

Yao was just an ordinary second- or third-rate real estate developer who, during that era of large-scale infrastructure development, developed some residential housing projects and accumulated some wealth.

emperor?

Would an emperor not even leave the provinces?
Using esports to acquire land is an attempt to exploit policy loopholes, not a matter of strong connections.

Unfortunately.

Such insider posts often fail to go viral, while self-media fabrications about the local tyrant of Shangrao become famous.

"Strict investigation!"

"No real estate developer is any good! 90% of them are bastards."

"WE has been involved in esports for over a decade and they are very careful with their money every year. Unlike RNG, they can just buy Uzi directly."

"That's how easy it is to make money."

"I remember... EDG is also in the real estate business."

"Can that be the same?"

"Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Disgusting, disgusting!"

"Investigate back ten years!"

"..."

Previously, public opinion only wanted RNG to get out, but now the trend is to want the Yao family to die.

EDG Club.

Ed Zhu realized the severity of the situation and decisively asked Fujii to strengthen management. He said to Abu, "After such a mess, Fujii is bound to make a big move."

He has feelings.

The contract teams have run out of resources.

Originally, Fujii didn't care about this situation. He just felt that most teams were losing money and that making too many demands would be detrimental to the development of the league. However, in the past two years, with the deepening of the franchise system, the conflict has been resolved and the system can better protect the interests of all parties.

This is not just Qin Hao's achievement.

They are also new investors who don't see player revenue as a big profit and don't expect to make money through player transactions. To put it bluntly, those contracts with extremely detailed and exploitative terms are designed to save money and recoup their investment.

S8 is used as the dividing line.

In the past, teams were good at clever tricks and scheming, but later investors were good at making grand promises and betting on things to motivate the players.

The trend is quite obvious.

The parent companies of these teams are more international, and no matter how stupid, bad, or out of touch with reality their management is, they are still more decisive than feudal landlords.

Time comes on the 28th.

When Shirahoshi received a call from his father, feeling both angry and helpless, and forced to back down, Fujii convened a high-level meeting to discuss the players' contracts.

Fujii actually has provisions regarding player contracts.

The rule didn't take effect this time simply because RNG had studied it too thoroughly, and esports is a relatively new industry, so the regulations couldn't keep up with the times.

Let's not even talk about esports.

Many legal provisions have also evolved with the times, since the situation is always more complex than what is written in black and white.

And this time.

Shirahoshi really pissed Fujii off.

The meeting lasted for two days.

Qin Hao and Sky are the only two who have played professionally and are now participating in the discussion as shareholders.

To prevent something like what happened to Xiaohu from happening again.

Fujii demanded that the club further relinquish its rights and provide more guarantees for the players' obligations.

The final decision was that, starting from January 2019, the validity of the player contracts would not be affected if the commercial cooperation had not expired. This means that the commercial value and the value of the competition are separated, and a section on adjudication was added to the template for player contracts.

Qin Hao was extremely excited when he witnessed the appearance of the supplementary clauses.

He didn't know what he was so excited about. After all, his business contracts had always been independent, but following the farce and mess, he desperately hoped that the industry could become more standardized and regulated.

Back to the club.

Just as Qin Hao was about to share this good news, Guo Hao laughed and said, "RNG has given in."

"real or fake."

Qin Hao was a little surprised. After seeing the "So what?" post, he thought RNG had given up and wanted to tie Xiaohu down for life.

"It's true, Weibo has made its move."

Guo Hao recounted: "...After learning about Xiaohu's situation, their boss played a trick on Fujii, letting Xiaohu register for the top lane position to circumvent the breach of contract clause."

"What about the union agreement?"

"RNG's condition for letting Xiaohu enter the transfer market was that the commercial contract would be left to the guild, and only the 3 million yuan breach of contract fee would be pursued. But I don't know how Fujii negotiated, RNG transferred the commercial contract to Xiaoxiang, and then Weibo made a move, so Xiaohu didn't even have to pay the breach of contract fee."

"This is a clear trap set for RNG!"

Guo Hao nodded: "...RNG had already conceded two steps, but it turned out that Top 10 had worked for nothing. Haha." Concessions of two steps refer to lowering the breach of contract penalty and allowing Xiaohu to transfer, since it would be difficult to obtain 80 million in compensation even if they went to court.

The relevant information must be kept confidential.

He had no choice but to keep going despite the verification marks, and posted three Weibo posts in a row to celebrate:
—I really admire myself.

— Preparing for the Chinese New Year.

—To take in heartbroken fans of the Emperor.

Not many people paid attention to him, and no one knew what he was talking about. However, Qin Hao saw these three Weibo posts and laughed so hard that his stomach hurt. He promptly liked and followed them.

They used the Penicillin account to attract traffic.

For a moment, the fans were puzzled by this move, since the three-time champion only liked to post on Weibo and didn't like to browse...

and also.

Who is the stone hurrying along the road?
