LOL: The No. 1 Succubus in the eSports Circle

Chapter 124 Hello, little lion! (asking for monthly ticket)
While there have been a lot of big news during the transfer period in other regions, the LPL remains calm.

In the LCS region, "Emperor Jensen" left C9 and is suspected to be joining Team Liquid.

In the LEC region, "King of Magic" Caps left FNC and is suspected to join G2, allowing Perkz to switch to AD position to form a European galaxy battleship.

In the LCK region, teams such as SKT, KZ, and Gen.G have also undergone a large-scale reshuffle. Some star players have retired, some have chosen to go to Europe and the United States to make money, and some have chosen to join other teams to continue pursuing their dreams.

The small team led by Lin Qing went to South Korea on the 21st, and on the same day they received the evaluation reports on the free agents during the transfer period and the players listed for sale by various teams.

The first stop of the SNG management team in South Korea is the KZ club that is about to fall apart.

The predecessor of KZ team was Longzhu team, a team under Longzhu Live. Coincidentally, SNG was also operated by Longzhu before, so the two teams have close ties.

With this connection, Lin Qing originally had great hopes.

He felt that he should be able to find one or two good players in the KZ team.

Although the original SNG lineup retained top laner Lang Xing and jungler Hacker, Lin Qing did not give up the idea of ​​recruiting strong Korean top and jungle players.

As a result, when they arrived at the KZ club base on the morning of the 22nd, they were told that Khan had reached an agreement with the SKT team, and under the supervision of the LCK Fairness Committee, the signing process would be completed tomorrow.

Top lane signing - sent!
Next, Lin Qing set his sights on "Little Peanut", the former Tigers' meritorious jungler who has gained many fans around the world with his "silver hair suppressing the devil" attitude and has many fans in the LPL.

He is strong, talented, has traffic, and is experienced. In addition, Choi Taek's Korean language skills are excellent. If he is bought back, he may be able to produce a very good mid-jungle chemistry.

结果
"I'm sorry, although the contract benefits are very good, I don't have any intention of developing in China for the time being."

These are the exact words that Peanut Han Wanghu said when he rejected Lin Qing.

Then the next day, on the 23rd, Peanut reached an agreement with Gen.G.

Lin Qing was exhausted and finally placed his hope on the "Xuanming Two Elders" duo of Pray and Gorrila.

It doesn't matter if you can't buy Ueno, the combination of Wolf + Hacker is enough, especially since Hacker is still young and has room for growth.

But if we use a supporting duo, we can always get it, right?

Although the two Xuanming Elders are quite old, they still seem to be capable. If you offer them a good contract with good pay, they should not refuse.

As a result, things once again went beyond Lin Qing's expectations.

After suffering the defeat in MSI, the competitive state of all the members of the KZ team showed a downward trend in the summer season.

As a result, they lost to AFS in the first round of the playoffs and lost to Gen.G in the third round of the bubble match, becoming the first spring champion team in the history of the five major regions to miss the World Championship.

The mentality of "Rat King" Pray also completely collapsed after this.

Born in 1994 and about to turn 2 in less than two months, he has already lost his passion and confidence in League of Legends e-sports.

Even though Lin Qing offered him a very good contract and was even willing to sign him for only one year, Pray still declined Suning's invitation.

Pray's autism led to Gorrila's rejection of Suning's contract.

Therefore, the team led by Lin Qing did not stay in South Korea for long and set off for home on the 25th.

Nothing was caught!

Early in the morning of the 26th, Cui Ze once again walked into the Suning Club base.

This time I came with luggage.

In the conference room, Lin Qing and several other Suning Club and SNG team managers sat in a row, while Cui Ze and his lawyer Wang Can and assistant Afan sat on the other side.

In fact, if you are brave enough, you don’t even need to bring a lawyer. You can just take out the contract, sign it and put your fingerprints on it.

After all, he is a relative.

But our ancestors said it well: Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of one!

After a brief greeting, the HR manager took out a formal contract and gently handed it to Cui Ze.

Lin Qing raised his hand and said, "Take a look. If you have any opinions, you can raise them. I will try my best to satisfy you. If I cannot satisfy you, I can also ask Young Master Zhang for instructions."

Cui Ze nodded, took a quick glance at it himself, and then handed it to Wang Can for careful inspection.

合同日期自2018年11月26日始，到2020年11月19日结束，一共是两个赛季。

The salary consists of three aspects: basic annual salary + club bonus + tournament bonus.

Because Cui Ze is a free agent and has not yet played in the LPL league, even though his LDL honors and statistics are quite good, the basic annual salary offered by Suning is still not high.

The annual salary for the first year is RMB 120 million, and Cui Ze will be paid RMB 10 (before tax) on the 10th of each month in the form of monthly salary.

As for the annual salary for the second year, it will be adjusted after consultation based on the honors Choi Tae has achieved in the S9 season, as well as an evaluation of his on-field performance, commercial value, etc. The club guarantees that there will be no salary cut.

As the name suggests, the club bonus means that every time Cui Ze wins a game (Bo1, Bo3, Bo5), the club will accumulate bonuses for him and pay them out in the next natural month after completing a competition stage (Spring Season, Summer Season, International Competition).

The prize money bases for the regular season, playoffs and international competitions are different. For example, the Bo3 prize money for the LPL regular season is 2 yuan.

That is to say, if the LPL expands to 16 teams and there are 15 Bo3s in the regular season, if Cui Ze can play in full and win all the games, he can get a total of 30 yuan in club bonuses in one spring or summer regular season.

For playoffs and international competitions, the prize money will naturally be higher.

As for tournament prize money, LPL and Riot both have clearly marked prices. You get what you deserve based on the level of the tournament and your ranking.

For example, the champions of the LPL Spring and Summer Seasons will receive a tournament reward of RMB 200 million, which is usually divided equally among team members.

Unless the club maliciously defaults on the payment, Cui Ze is quite satisfied with the salary offered by Suning.

The reason why his annual salary in the first year was only over one million was because his agency contract was in the hands of Xiaoxiang. The club could not directly arrange for him to participate in commercial activities and had to discuss with Xiaoxiang first.

People with connections are people with connections, but business should be business. Suning Club is not a charity organization. It is impossible to offer Cui Ze such a high salary contract when he has a third-party agency contract and cannot fully grasp his commercial value.

Therefore, in the future, if Cui Ze performs well on the field, Suning will definitely negotiate with Xiaoxiang regarding his agency contract to ensure that he can establish higher brand value for the club and create more economic benefits.

How the negotiations will be conducted specifically, to what extent they can be conducted, and whether in-depth cooperation can be achieved are not issues that Cui Ze needs to consider.

Let them have the headache.

After a check, Wang Can gave a positive answer: no loopholes in the contract that are unfavorable to Party B (Cui Ze) have been found.

Cui Ze still believed in Wang Can's ability and basically approved of the treatment offered by Suning.

So he readily picked up the pen and signed his name and pressed his fingerprints in all the places in the contract that required signatures.

Lin Qing immediately stood up and shook hands with him: "Contestant Cui Ze, welcome to join Suning E-sports Club. I hope we can work together and achieve great results!"

Cui Ze also responded with a smile: "Thank you Suning E-Sports Club for your trust. I hope to live up to your trust."

After signing the contract, Cui Ze became an official member of Suning Esports Club.

Because there had been prior communication, Suning did not hide anything this time and quickly asked the operations girl to take a few photos of him that seemed casual but full of information.

Ten minutes later, at 11:26 a.m. on November 10, Cui Ze’s Weibo account finally updated a post after six days:
【Cui ZeVeronica: Hello, little lion! 】

The dynamic picture is a close-up photo of Cui Ze and Suning mascot "Sugra Ning".

Afterwards, the official Weibo account of Suning E-sports Club immediately reposted the post and added the message: [Here comes cousin! (love heart)]

SNG Veronica, officially connected!
As an emerging club in LPL, SNG has far fewer fans than old clubs such as IG, EDG, and RNG, but it doesn’t matter, Cui Ze still has a lot of fans.

Seeing that their brother finally updated his status and directly announced that he had joined the LPL club, Cui Ze’s fans, especially the female fans, immediately flocked to the scene and competed to comment.

[From today on, I am a ten-year-old fan of Suning! Go, go, go, little lion! ]

[@Suning E-sports Club, is this going to work? You can call it an official announcement without even a uniform? (dog head)]

[@Suning E-sports Club, operations, hurry up! I want to see my husband's live broadcast at your home base, tonight! ]

[Buying a rookie mid laner who got beaten by Uzi, I can only expect him to be at the bottom (snickering)]

[He Youjun said that both sides would win and lose, but you are the one who beat them? I suggest you worry about whether your master has a club that wants him! (Laughs)]

The voices pouring cold water in the comments were quickly attacked and blasted by Choi Ze’s female fans.

Not long after, Cui Ze's friends also spoke up.

【ssenming: hehehehehe (grin)】

[JackeyLoveasdzzz: There's nothing much to say, come to the German Cup, I can't wait to beat my buddies again (dog head)]

【Neverlandre: Damn it, you came to Chongqing and then ran away. You won’t be as good as me when you arrive in LPL! 】

[Iris: Young man, with a lion heart! So handsome! ]

[Rita Xiaoyusang: I would like to call you the most beautiful person in LPL (applause)]

[Yu Shuang YSCanice: Come on, Aze! Auntie is ready to interview you at the German Cup! ]

The commotion created by Cui Ze's fans and many LPL celebrities soon attracted the attention of fans of other teams, but most of them just watched and waited, and many of them treated it with indifference.

[With such a big commotion, people who didn’t know would think it was Faker? But it turns out he’s just an LDL mid laner? ]

[No.1 in Korea? Don’t let it be hidden like Golden Left Hand again]

[It's not that he's hidden, but it's probably another poisonous silver coin. He starts live streaming to make money after playing training games every day. It's a miracle that such a player can achieve good results! ]

[He is quite handsome, I hope he is not a burden. ]

[Still a burden? If you look at his performance in the LDL Summer Finals, or the highlights of his top ranking in the Korean server, you won't be able to say such stupid things! ]

[Shut up, stupid female fans! This is the e-sports circle, being bad is the original sin! Even if the three-time champion Faker becomes bad, he can't avoid being criticized. If your brother doesn't play well, I will be the first to lead the charge! ]

Cui Ze’s official announcement of joining Suning has once again caused a stir in the e-sports circle.

However, he himself does not really care about how he is evaluated. After all, whether he receives encouragement or is questioned, praised or criticized in various ways, these are all traffic.

Traffic is a good thing, and it is one of the most important factors in the commercial value of a public figure.

It is true that performance is important, but traffic is equally important.

Black and red are also red!
What's more, he is not a black and red now. After all, Cui Ze's black spot on the field is at most his poor operating ability before the system is awakened, and he is suspected of mixing in the line and hugging GALA's thigh in the bottom lane.

But this suspicion has long been cleared with his dominant performance in the summer season and no longer constitutes a black spot.

Compared to this small stir on the Internet, he was more concerned about a player who came to Suning for a trial this afternoon and whom he was "very familiar with".

"Hello, my name is Han Jin, you can also call me Old Thief, or Sima Old Thief."
