LOL: Recruiting Ye Xiu at the beginning, I am invincible

Chapter 195 E-sports trainee program, launched!!!

Colorful golden light flickers on the turntable.

The names of the people inside came back one by one, some of them were familiar and some were unfamiliar. In the end... when the names were confirmed, Chen Yu was slightly stunned.

I go!

It turned out to be this kid.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations to the host for winning the UR level player Daluo...]

Wuhu!

Yes.

E-sports managers can summon virtual players. If Ye Xiu and Su Muqiu are from The King's Avatar, then Xiao Bei, Blood Diao, and Daluo are all from the same novel.

Who can contend with me?

This is indeed a bit strange, but since he is a UR-level player.

There is no doubt about that strength.

If it were in the past, Chen Yu might have been a little more cautious, after all, the funds in his account were not that much, but that was before... and now there is no need to think about these issues at all.

Because YOG has a bright future now, not to mention the money from selling cards and peripherals.

Just the advertising fee!

Chen Yu now has advertising reservations totaling 100 million yuan.

In addition, there are renewals of live broadcast contracts and partner contracts.

Player sales.

wait wait wait!
Some people even offered to bid to poach players, with Ye Xiu's price even exceeding 30 million at one point.

Good guy!
In response to this, Chen Yu said that this group of talented people are not short of money.

However, Ye Xiu had no intention of leaving YOG, and Chen Yu would not sell them either. SSR or SR players could be sold, but forget about the others.

Various prices skyrocketed, and this is the value of LPL’s first championship.

And this is just the beginning.

Because he has subsequent plans, and he is recruiting now, and because of the discount cards, the number is much less than expected, but it is still in eight digits.

【Ding! 】

[Recruitment successful...]

[Blood Eagle Zhao Tinghua, Lone Owl Daluo, Xun, are on their way and are expected to arrive within half a month...]

Half a month?
This takes a little while, but it's not a big deal.

With the end of the World Championship, there are not many games left in the LPL, only one All-Star and one Demacia Cup, but neither of these two games are very formal.

One is an entertainment event and the other is a training ground for new recruits.

You can attend, but you don't have to.

It just so happens that I can take care of other things during this time, and the first one... is to accept an interview with a TV station. Maybe there are a lot of doubts on the Internet now.

But what's the problem?
Without YOG's operational restrictions, public opinion online began to ferment.

There seems to be a trend of the secular circle attacking the e-sports circle, and this scenario has actually been predicted by some people a long time ago. Perhaps now many people can make money through the Internet.

But there are still a large number of people who regard the Internet as a scourge.

But because they cannot live without the Internet, e-sports has become the best outlet. In fact, many clubs have encountered this kind of scenario in the past.

WE!

EDG!

When we won the championship, we encountered this kind of public opinion attack.

But at that time, both teams took measures to suppress some of the heat, but this time YOG had no follow-up action at all, which was a bit strange.

"What is this YOG playing?"

EDG Club!
Mr. Zhu looked at the data on the screen. These were the popularity charts for YOG's championship. The numbers were very hot, which also boosted the popularity of the e-sports circle.

Maybe they didn't win the championship, but they can still get a wave of traffic from this popularity.

But it’s also because the heat is too high.

There is also a lot of public opinion.

EDG has experienced this kind of thing before, so they naturally know how to deal with it. But the current situation is completely wrong. Not to mention dealing with it, they really can't even suppress it.

This is totally wrong.

When Boss Zhu couldn't understand, EDG's general manager Abu was standing nearby, really not daring to say a word. Finally, he asked, "Ji Xing! What do you think?"

"Ah? I... maybe it's because the heat is too high and I can't suppress it?"

"possible!"

Boss Zhu nodded, this is the first championship.

Moreover, winning the championship at the Bird's Nest was of great significance. It was normal for such popularity to appear. However, just when Boss Zhu thought that this was the only thing that happened.

Who would have thought…

at this time.

YOG released a statement.

After seeing the contents, Boss Zhu was completely dumbfounded and said, "No, what is this YOG going to do? Is this Chen Yu crazy?"

"???"

Abu was a little confused. What happened to this guy?
But when he saw the content, his face changed. This was an announcement, and it was actually very simple. It was just an interview with a TV station three days later.

Looks ok!

But there is a big problem. When EDG won the MSI championship, there was also such an interview invitation, but did they dare to do it?

dare not!

Because they know very well that once they are interviewed.

There will definitely be some very tricky questions, but now Chen Yu is not only accepting an interview, but also a public interview, and it is a live broadcast.

This is courting death!

"What is Chen Yu going to do?"

quickly!

This news has once again become a hot topic.

When you are very popular, no matter what you do, it will be magnified infinitely.

That's the situation right now.

[Isn’t this too outrageous? ]

[Why do you dare to accept this interview? Haven't you harmed enough people? ]

[What is this for? Promoting electronic opium? What! People should stop reading and just play games. ]

[Official invitation, how much money was given? 】

[It seems to be right here, I want to go over and take a look...]

【Same! 】

That comment section is terrifying.

There were even quite a few people who spontaneously forwarded the news to their own friend circles. The popularity of YOG's championship had originally dropped a little, but now it has been directly replaced by this.

[YOG CEO is going to be interviewed! ]

Directly became the number one on Weibo.

This news was seen by many people, including YOG players.

Xiao Bei, Su Muqiu, and Ye Xiu.

I saw it all!

At this time, everyone was not in the same place. Some went to Sanya for tourism, some went home to be with their girlfriends, and some chose to find a place to lie down and develop.

Now everyone has entered a group chat.

Here is a small group of several people.

[Ye Xiu: Did you see it on Weibo? Deduct 1 if you did!]

【Zhou Zekai: 1】

【Zhang Xinjie: 1】

[Su Muqiu: 1]

【Huang Shaotian...】

They’re all there!

[Ye Xiu: What are you planning to do, boss? This is the center of public opinion.]

[Su Muqiu: He should have his own ideas. You know, the boss won't fight an unprepared battle. Since he took the initiative to accept it, he must have a coping strategy. ] [Xiaobei: Do you want us to go back and see if there is anything we can help with? ]

[Yu Wenzhou: You don’t need to go back. The boss has his own ideas. If you go back now, it will probably only cause more trouble. It’s better to do the same as me and wait and see.]

【Huang Shaotian: OK! 】

【Zhou Zekai: Yes】

It can only be like this...

that's it!
quickly!

On the day of the interview, Chen Yu was wearing a custom-made suit, which was high-end custom-made from top to bottom. Only a pair of calfskin shoes took half a year to be handmade.

As the interview began, the host's questions were all standard.

However, many people know it!

The real highlight was not what the host said, but the free-answer session after the interview, which ended with the host's last question.

She also smiled and said, "My segment is over. The next segment will be handed over to the audience. Do you have any questions?"

At this moment, many people's eyes lit up.

coming!

coming!

And this interview was broadcast live, as soon as these words came out.

The barrage exploded.

【What is supposed to come has finally come. 】

[I don’t know how Boss Chen will respond. ]

[Isn't this too young? In your twenties? Have you graduated from college?]

[In some ways, he is indeed a successful entrepreneur. It is said that YOG's valuation exceeds one billion. ]

[Haha! Success is bullshit. The black-hearted capitalists who advocate electronic opium should be torn into pieces and die a miserable death...]

Lots of comments!

At this time, a middle-aged female reporter with curly hair stood up and said, "Boss Chen! I've heard you keep talking about the benefits of e-sports, but what about the disadvantages? Do you know how many children with good grades have neglected their studies because of playing games? What do you think about this?"

[No! Is this reporter crazy? ]

[Studying neglected? What does it have to do with games? 】

[This is a substitution of concepts, right? ]

The comments didn’t understand what he said, but it didn’t matter if he didn’t understand, as long as Chen Yu understood. In this regard… Chen Yu smiled and said, “Auntie, let me ask you a question!”

Female reporter: “????”

"According to this statement, the country has banned gambling, and poker and mahjong also fall under the category of gambling. Why isn't it banned? I don't think wasting time on studies is equivalent to playing games!"

The female reporter's face darkened and she said, "You are changing the subject. What I meant was that if there were no games, their results might be better!"

"It depends on the individual. Twenty years ago, computers were not very popular, let alone games. But in this environment, there are still people who are not good at studying and those who are not good at learning. How do you explain this?"

"I……"

The female reporter was completely stuck.

[Fuck! That's right. Why were there still people who were poor at studying before there were games?]

[To put it bluntly, it's just passing the buck. ]

[If I can’t study anymore, I can’t study anymore. Even if there are no games, there are still other things…]

Naturally, these remarks sparked discussions among many people at the scene.

The middle-aged female reporter was also a little embarrassed, and immediately said: "But you can't deny the impact of games on teenagers. I have seen many young people who have lost their ambition due to playing games. What do you think about this?"

Chen Yu smiled and said, "Are we interviewing? Or interrogating?"

"Of course it's an interview, please answer directly."

"it is good!"

Chen Yu nodded.

This was the question he was waiting for. He said, "Before I talk about this question, I want to say that... e-sports and games are not the same thing, just like being able to do addition, subtraction, multiplication and division and being able to do physics experiments are two different concepts."

"Actually, I can understand why you asked this question, because you don't understand what e-sports is. This is actually my question."

"I should promote e-sports more and let more people know about e-sports, so... our YOG club will create an e-sports trainee event."

"Registration starts today. We will select thousands of students who want to play professionally or are interested in playing professionally. I have posted the registration method on my Weibo."

At this moment, the whole place was boiling.

[What the hell is this? ]

【Advertising, this is advertising. 】

[Is this possible? Is this also possible? ]

Many people were stunned, and the players who were watching the broadcast had strange expressions. Now they understood why their boss allowed the situation to continue unabated.

It turns out he was waiting here!
Take advantage of public opinion and then transform it into popularity that is beneficial to you.

Great!

The middle-aged female reporter looked gloomy and said, "What do you mean? You are harming people, do you know that?"

As soon as she said this, she received a lot of approval.

[Yes! The children don’t go to school? ]

[What if I fail to get on, wouldn't that mean it's useless? ]

[What's wrong with this program? How can such a person be on the show? ]

There was a lot of discussion on the scene, and it was because of this discussion that the middle-aged female reporter regained her confidence and looked at Chen Yu with an extremely provocative look.

It seemed to be indicating that he had won.

Chen Yu laughed at this. He didn't understand which side this middle-aged female reporter belonged to. After all, many journalists, writers and bloggers didn't have normal brains.

But if used properly, the effect can be very good.

That's how it is now.

Chen Yu spoke up and said, "My show is broadcast live and can be watched on various platforms. In addition... our recording time is two and a half months."

"The people who stay at the end will get tickets to the professional arena. If you have a student in your family who wants to play professionally, or who keeps playing games because he wants to play professionally, you can send him to our training camp."

"Let them understand what a real career is. The reason they yearn for it is because they don't understand. Yearning is the furthest distance from understanding. Once they understand, they may give up games and return to their studies..."

"I remember there was a place similar to mine called the Internet Addiction Treatment Center, but it seemed to cost money to go there, but mine... is free!!!"

If...someone just agreed with this middle-aged female reporter.

Now?

Gone!

Why do some parents complain?
Because they can't manage it, and don't want to manage it, they want to post it online and get a way that allows them to manage it, or that can help them manage it. For this reason, Internet addiction treatment tools came into being.

However, this thing is very expensive and many parents can't afford it.

Even if I am willing to give it up!

That requires careful consideration, but things are different now.

free!

Who can resist the word free?

At this time, the middle-aged female reporter could no longer say a word, because she had begun to think about that bastard son of hers who kept saying that he wanted to become a professional player.

The results of it?
Playing games every day was the reason why she hated games, but now...

She was moved.

Finally, she asked the last question, "Is it really free?"

"It's free! It includes food and lodging... and transportation if needed."

Blasted!

Really exploded.

Not just on set, but at night as well.

[Oh my god! Can we play like this? ]

[Esports trainees? Is this a girl group? ]

[It’s a bit like that, but what is e-sports like? I really don’t know. This time it seems like… I can understand it. ]

[Isn't it? As expected of YOG, you can even come up with this idea? 】

There is so much discussion of this kind!
But Chen Yu didn't care about all this. After returning to the club, it was already evening, but Wang Sen and the others still hadn't gotten off work and were busy.

After seeing Chen Yu, Wang Sen immediately said, "Boss! It's booming. We were only going to recruit 1,000 people, but in just a few hours, the number of applicants has exceeded 100,000!"

Chen Yu nodded: "Then I will screen those students who always talk about their careers and use this as an excuse. After this event is over, I will let them understand what a real e-sports life is."
