Chapter 14 But he gave too much.

That’s right, the five-year live broadcast contract that Tenghai offered Ye Xiu had a signing fee of a terrifying 1.2 million.

What is the concept of 1.2 million?
In the current Glory Professional League, all-star-level professional players generally have an annual salary of several million.

Due to the strange system of the Honor Professional League, the majority of the players' endorsement fees are taken away by the club, and annual salary is their main source of income.

And the only ones who can earn an annual salary of tens of millions are the legendary "Five Great Titles".

And it is limited to the past two years.

A weirdo like Ye Xiu, due to his family background, never cared about his treatment. Basically, he would take whatever Tao Xuan gave him, and then immediately give it to his old brothers.

The total salary he has earned in the past seven years could be around 40 million at most.

1.2 million? Just for the live broadcast?
It's so scary.

If Ye Xiu was like this, Chen Guo was even worse.

She had never seen so much money in her life!

Her hands holding the contract began to tremble constantly, and the domineering aura of a leader disappeared without a trace due to her ability to make money.

In an unprecedentedly weak voice, he asked tremblingly:

"You...did you write an extra zero?"

1200 million for five years is a fair price considering that Ye Xiu has retired and there is also a share of the gifts.

Can be 1.2 billion?
Only Tang Rou, who had been watching the show on the side, did not react much, but her eyes were full of confusion and inquiry.

Zhang Yuanfang seemed to have anticipated their reaction. He smiled and shook his head: "That's right, 1.2 million for five years."

In fact, as early as when Pei Yunteng had just drafted this sky-high contract, a group of senior executives including Zhang Yuan had already asked similar questions.

But Pei Yunteng just replied lightly:
"The number one player in Chinese e-sports deserves such a status."

In Pei Yunteng's memory of his previous life, as early as 2018, Uzi, who had just won the MSI championship and was at the peak of his reputation, had received a huge contract of 1.5 million.

That was Uzi, who had never won a single S championship in his career, had major character flaws, and had a not-so-pleasing appearance.

Ye Xiu has both good grades and good looks, and considering his sharp-tongued and humorous personality, the live broadcast effect should not be bad, and there is no need to worry about his reputation being ruined.

It was acquired with just 1.2 million yuan, and it was acquired at a time when Xianyu needed to spend money the most to build momentum.

It’s a good profit.

Seeing Zhang Yuanfang being so calm, Ye Xiu and Chen Guo finally came to believe the authenticity of the contract.

"There's no reason not to sign this, right? 1.2 million. If I use it to set up a professional team, I can even form a team with five all-stars!" Chen Guo swallowed.

In the current league, an All-Star account and a player package would cost about 10 million.

It was not until the end of the eighth season that this record was broken by Baihua Liaoluan's 16 million.

1.2 million is a piece of cake for Ye Xiu to form a championship-level professional team.

Ye Xiu nodded woodenly and smiled bitterly in his heart.

"I owe you a huge favor..."

Not knowing much about the inside story and prospects of the live broadcast industry, he subconsciously regarded this sky-high signing fee as a friendly sponsorship from Boss Pei.

He doesn't care about money, but that doesn't mean he can not care about so much money.

Even though he came from the prestigious Ye family, he would be stunned for a while when he saw this amount of money.

In the end, Ye Xiu no longer hesitated and signed this earth-shattering contract.

He really needs the money to build a strong enough Glory team to win that damn championship!
That had been his obsession for many years, and it was also the mission Brother Pei gave him.

Just as Zhang Yuanfang was about to leave with satisfaction, Ye Xiu suddenly asked, "Do you want any professional players who have retired a long time ago?"

"I know quite a few people in the professional circle, they are all quite capable, but they have been away from the game for many years, so they may not be well-known anymore."

"If you need anything, I can make the contact for you."

A smile appeared on Zhang Yuanfang's lips.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Mr. Ye."

……

Of course, Ye Xiu wasn’t the only one who got the big contract.

the other side.

"Oh my god! Seventy million in five years?" Zhang Jiale exclaimed.

Turtle, this is much more than what he earned during his career. He only needs to live stream 100 hours a month. If he returns to play games, can we discuss it separately?

Is this Tenghai company doing charity?

"Brother, you guys don't have any other intentions towards me, do you? Let me make it clear first, I don't sell my body!"

"How could that be?" The Tenghai staff member who was responsible for connecting with Zhang Jiale hurriedly shook his head.

"Mr. Zhang is one of the top retired professional players in China, so he certainly deserves such a contract."

"If I must ask for something, it would be to ask Mr. Zhang Jiale to help contact your former partner Mr. Sun Zheping. We are also very interested in signing him!"

"Big Sun..." Zhang Jiale thought of the madman who fought with a tough style and enjoyed the fighting process immensely.

Due to his hand injury, it is probably unrealistic for him to return to the professional circle.

But starting a live broadcast and occasionally playing a few games with these old guys who have also retired, doesn’t it seem like there’s no problem?
Zhang Jiale hesitated for two seconds, then nodded: "Leave it to me, even if I have to tie him up, I will tie him up and bring him to you!"

My eldest grandson, it’s not that I don’t want to betray you out of justice, it’s just that they gave you too much.

Even after signing this sky-high contract and the staff had already finished work and left, Zhang Jiale still felt confused and unreal.

Is it that easy to make money? Zhang Jiale wondered.

Zhang Jiale, whose net worth increased several times in an instant, actually had no idea how to spend his money.

He is just an internet-addicted teenager with no bad habits or high-end hobbies. How much money can he spend?
Oh wait, speaking of expensive hobbies, there seems to be one...

……

Ye Qiu took out a small notebook from his luggage and started flipping through it page by page.

There were some long-forgotten names in there, followed by a phone number.

Each one represents an old friend who left early and returned to ordinary life.

Some simply failed to make a name for themselves in the professional arena, while others have never even stepped onto the professional stage.

They may be as ordinary as dust, but they are also an indispensable part of that wild e-sports era.

After so many years, they should not have the chance to shine again.

But the intrusion of Pei Yunteng, a time traveler, seemed to have opened a different door.

Ye Qiu held his cell phone and originally planned to call his old partner.

ID is Qi Chong Yun Shui, the former dynasty's twin pillars, Wu Xuefeng.

But thinking that the guy was no longer in the country, Ye Xiu finally gave up the idea of ​​contacting him.

Ye Xiu flipped through the small notebook over and over again, and finally, his gaze fixed on a certain name.

He called.

Soon, the call was connected, and a voice with a Hubei accent came from the other end: "Hello, who is this?"

Ye Xiu took a deep breath, as if he had returned to those years again.

"I am Ye Qiu."

"Ye Qiu?" The person on the other side was obviously shocked.

"What a rare guest. There has been a lot of news about you these days. I didn't expect you to call me."

"It's been a while since we last met, right?"

Ye Xiu smiled.

"Yeah, long time no see."

"Mingkai."

　I’m so happy. Here are three updates today.

　　To be honest, selecting a group of high-quality LPL players from real life and putting them in the full-time world is something I have always wanted to do.

　　There is no way. Even with the most optimistic estimate, it would be great if there could be ten players poached from the Honor Professional League to play in the LPL. And four or five All-Stars would be the most optimistic estimate. I can't make up a hundred or eighty purely original professional players.

　　The only solution is to fill in the existing players

　　The trigger was Yu Wenzhou and Yu Wenbo, two of the world's top professional players, who had such similar names. It really made me want to find a way to do something.

　　If real professional players are to appear in the future, they must be those with no problems in character and strength. Those humanoid creatures who play as tanks, PCs, or C fans will not appear.
