Chapter 342: Begging with a Golden Bowl
Although he didn't know why the three clubs had offended President Pei, seeing Pei Yunteng's extremely rare loss of composure, Feng Xianjun didn't dare to say a word and honestly introduced:
"Yes, these three."
In order to prevent Pei Yunteng from not knowing enough about them, he also specially added some background information of the three families.
"AG, or All Gamers, is one of the oldest teams in China. It is even older than Excellent Era and other teams that were established in the early days of Glory. The earliest can be traced back to nearly 20 years ago."
"We were one of the teams that participated in the first season of Glory League, but we were not strong enough to keep our seat, and we have been silent ever since."
"There is a division in the LPL, but it's in the secondary league."
"EDG was founded by a second-generation rich man named Aide Zhu. The boss is not short of money, so the current investment is also very stable. It also has a seat in the top league of LPL, but it is currently struggling on the edge of the relegation match."
"WNV's words..."
As Feng Xianjun was talking, he couldn't continue because Pei Yunteng didn't show any surprise or curiosity at all.
Although Feng Xianjun knew that the man in front of him was very busy and unlikely to pay attention to these non-first-tier clubs, he had an illusion:
Pei Yunteng seemed to know the origins of these three teams much better than he did.
Sure enough, after he paused, Pei Yunteng asked anxiously, "Is there a specific list of the three teams?"
"Yes!" Feng Xianjun made preparations, quickly searched in the document bag he brought, and handed it over with both hands.
Without bothering with useless etiquette, Pei Yunteng took it and looked at it impatiently, his expression gradually becoming subtle.
Sure enough, he saw some familiar names.
After a long time, when Pei Yunteng looked up again, his face had become the familiar smile that Feng Xianjun was familiar with, the one that would kill someone without any compensation.
"Please give a message to these three teams regarding their joint petition." He made the decision slowly.
"Please go on?" Feng Xianjun listened attentively, and then became expectant.
According to Mr. Pei's style, is it a pie in the sky? Or a threat? Or is it to explain the benefits and disadvantages?
But what Pei Yunteng said next made him suspect that there was something wrong with his ears.
“Stop begging for food with your golden bowl in your hands! Instead of coming here to throw a tantrum, why not nurture the champion seedling in your hand and then go fight Samsara head-on!”
Pei Yunteng spoke each word with great emphasis, and Feng Xianjun was shocked.
"Boss Pei, this is too..." He tried to persuade him, but Pei Yunteng seemed to have lost his patience.
"Let's do it this way!" Pei Yunteng made the final decision and directly pressed the stop button on this conversation.
Feng Xianjun came in a dilemma and left in a dilemma.
Pei Yunteng did give him instructions, but these instructions were worse than nothing.
How do you teach him how to convey this order?
Now some of them are done...
On the other side, after Feng Xianjun left, Pei Yunteng leaned back comfortably in his chair, a smile slowly appearing on the corner of his mouth.
"…Actually, I should have thought of it earlier."
"I should have thought of it as early as the LPL qualifiers when I saw Wang Haozhe playing AD." Pei Yunteng was all smiles.
"Who said...cnfps, only CNCS?"
Pei Yunteng found himself trapped in a misconception.
All the struggles and decisions he had faced before regarding the CSGO League were based on one premise:
That is, CNCS is very weak and is considered a wild card level in the world.
In a league of this level, a team like Samsara that is stuck in the past is obviously not suitable to stay there for a long time, which may not be good for itself or other teams.
That's why Pei Yunteng wanted to bring Samsara to play in the European League.
But the question is, is CNCS really weak?
Pei Yunteng, who was constrained by his past life's thinking, felt that it might be possible.
Although he solved the survival problems of the league and club for CNCS and was able to establish a good competition and training system,
Give them a few years and perhaps they will be able to create another top division.
But in the short term, Pei Yunteng believes that the CN regions other than Samsara are not very competitive.
The reason lies in the existing players.
I don't know if it's the system's way of doing things, or if this world already has the equivalents of those players. In short, this world also has those top professional players from Pei Yunteng's previous life.
And there is a high probability that you will be able to become famous in the projects that you were good at before.
For example, on the EUCS side, a large number of old faces including Ni Gongzi, Zaiwu and others have already appeared, which makes Pei Yunteng look forward to seeing what kind of killing these people can do.
However, CNCS has much less accumulation in this regard. We can't let Eggplant Doraemon and the like to go against the monsters in the CIS and Europe, right?
But Pei Yunteng overlooked one thing.
Who stipulates that only CSGO players in the previous life can play CS e-sports in this life?
You know, one of the most common reasons that CS brother found for the poor performance of CNCS is the problem of talent diversion.
When it comes to Chinese FPS games, the CS series has almost never been the only one in the market.
In the early days there was CF, in the middle period there were OW and PUBG. After finally becoming famous, a stronger rival like W3C suddenly appeared, which was a more direct competition.
Moreover, in terms of e-sports alone, it is even slightly more developed than the chaotic CNCS.
"All the talented youngsters from CNFPS have gone to play CF!" This is the most common comment made by many people when analyzing CNCS.
But similar problems don’t seem to be a big deal in the full-time world, right?
After all, in this world, the only shooting game that is currently popular in China seems to be CS.
CF, OW and WALL were never released at all, PUBG was blocked abroad for various reasons, and CNFPS is the real CSGO that dominates the market.
This resulted in those talented young people who were originally scattered and shining in different games inevitably coming to the professional team of CSGO in this life.
Moreover, because the timeline is completely mixed up, teams and players from many different eras have gathered in the same era.
So, when Pei Yunteng heard the names of the three teams that were leading the trouble, he had already vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
If I remember correctly, these three teams seem to have won the world championships of CS1.6, CF and Valorant respectively...
Taking another look at the list Feng Xianjun brought, I became even more certain.
That list truly illustrates what it means to have all the wise men and women, young and old, gathered together.
EDG.ZmJJKK, EDG.CHICHOO, ...all members of the 24th Incheon limited edition EDG.
WNV.Alex, WNV.jungle… 05 champion WNV exclusive.
On the AG side, we saw a super mixed all-star team that brought together top players from multiple games and teams.
In the coaching booth, Pei Yunteng also saw ancient masters and heavyweights such as Meng Yang and 70kg.
In other words, the three teams that had just united to cause trouble for him and complained that Samsara was too strong and they could not beat them at all were the world champion teams of three different games in Pei Yunteng's previous life.
All these people came here to play CSGO e-sports?
GO, this prosperous era is what you wish for!
No wonder Pei Yunteng was so angry and laughed at by this group of people.
You three come to me to complain that your opponent is too strong?
What's going on?
Thinking of this, Pei Yunteng was no longer panicked.
As long as we can break the filter of Samsara's invincibility, within a year, Samsara's number one position will be seriously threatened.
He believes in the potential of these CNFPS stars from different eras and different games.
... Pei Yunteng believed it, and Feng Xianjun's life became miserable.
How could he convey Pei Yunteng's original words, which sounded a bit like a gangster, to those clubs?
I can only summarize it myself and then convey it in a tactful way.
Begging with a golden bowl in hand?
Does this mean that President Pei is very optimistic about the players currently owned by these clubs?
Although he has always been confident in Pei Yunteng's vision, when he thinks of these young people who were just ordinary passers-by two or three months ago,
As soon as he debuted, he had to face Zhou Zekai, the big devil who had a chance to enter the top ten in the history of Chinese e-sports.
Feng Xianjun couldn't help but want to question.
Not long after, Feng Xianjun, on behalf of Tencent Esports, held a symposium with representatives from major clubs in the CSGO League and CSPL.
"We, the organizers of the event, are very optimistic about the development prospects of your clubs. There are many young people with great prospects in the league..."
At the symposium, Feng Xianjun conveyed Pei Yunteng's attitude towards their demands to the major teams in a relatively tactful manner.
Not surprisingly, deep disappointment was seen on the faces of representatives from the major teams.
He knew that this decision was made because Pei Yunteng was really optimistic about the future development and performance of the current players of these teams.
Some even believe that they are qualified to have a chance with reincarnation.
But in the eyes of those representatives and the clubs behind them, the official attitude is just trying to smooth things over.
They just don't want to take action against Samsara for them, and just want to watch them being ruled by Samsara.
"Chairman Feng, is this what the alliance wants? Or is this your personal opinion?" One representative asked directly in a slightly shrill voice that was obviously from bel canto practice.
Obviously, they are still unwilling to be used as stepping stones by reincarnation.
Looking at their attitude, Feng Xianjun knew that he could no longer cover up this matter.
Fortunately, Pei Yunteng never lets his subordinates take the blame for him.
Feng Xianjun remained calm after receiving Pei Yunteng's approval and shook his head: "Neither."
"Whose intention is that?" the representative from the EDG team asked puzzledly.
"That's what Mr. Pei meant." Feng Xianjun smiled.
As soon as these words were spoken, the originally agitated meeting place suddenly became quiet again.
The two words "Mr. Pei" have such magical power.
"Is this... President Pei's original words?" The EDG representative was silent for a while. When he spoke again, he no longer had the aggressive tone as before.
"Not really, but the original words would be more violent. Are you sure you want to listen?" Feng Xianjun said calmly.
"Please let us hear it!"
So, at the insistence of the representatives, Feng Xianjun played the response that Pei Yunteng had specially recorded.
When the powerful words "Don't come here to beg with a golden bowl in your hand!" echoed in the conference hall, all the representatives present felt that their brains were overloaded.
Mr. Pei, it seems that you are really optimistic about our group of young trainees?
But they are still far from proving themselves?
……
With Pei Yunteng personally speaking out to support the company, Feng Xianjun also made a promise that if Samsara continues to be the only dominant company in the future, they will consider introducing restrictions such as luxury taxes.
The symposium was resolved fairly satisfactorily.
In fact, even if Pei Yunteng did not come forward, it is hard to say whether they would fight the alliance officials to the end.
After all, they didn't spend any money for the CSPL league seat.
If they spent tens or hundreds of millions of real money to sell seats, then they would naturally have the confidence to confront Tencent Esports.
But since Tencent Esports had no intention of charging them the ticket fee, their confidence was greatly weakened.
There are many teams behind them who are eyeing the target covetously. If they don't do it, there are plenty of people who will.
Seeing that Pei Yunteng himself has come forward, there seems to be no other way except to back off.
However, it is certainly impossible to say that there are no doubts at all.
After the meeting, while sitting in the club car, the EDG representative, Ji Xing, or Abu, called the boss.
"Boss, I'm coming out."
"...No, the official believes that Samsara will not always dominate the league, and thinks that the rookies we choose and train well are qualified to compete for the world championship!"
He reported all the contents of the symposium to EDG's boss, Ed Zhu.
After hearing this, Edward remained silent.
The higher the position you hold, the more you realize how vicious Pei Yunteng's vision is.
A business veteran like Ed Zhu knows how unrivaled Pei Yunteng's vision is in the business world.
But when it comes to judging people, especially when it’s just a quick glance, could it be that magical?
After thinking for a while, Aide Zhu instructed: "Do you have any friends in the e-sports circle who are more familiar with Mr. Pei's vision in the circle?"
Abu thought about it and his eyes lit up: "There really is one."
"He's the veteran Mingkai we wanted to recruit when we were forming the LPL team, but he ended up going to Happy to be the head coach."
"There have always been rumors in the industry that Happy is President Pei's biological son. He might know a little more."
"Okay, then let's ask him. If he's credible, we'll go all out. Just train the players. If you need reinforcements, tell me. I'll cover the expenses!"
After hearing this, Edward Zhu finally stopped hesitating and made the final decision.
"Yes, boss!" Abu responded quickly.
After hanging up the phone with Ed Zhu, he turned around and called his old friend, Ming Kai.
They participated together in the first season of Glory that year, but ultimately returned empty-handed.
Then Mingkai returned to his hometown to raise pigs. He persisted in the field of e-sports but was neither able to make it to the top nor to the bottom, until he met Ed Zhu.
Ed Zhu had ambitions in the e-sports industry early on. He valued the experience that Abu had gained over the years and selected him to be the manager of the new EDG.
As early as when the LPL team was being built, Abu, who recognized Mingkai's ID, wanted to poach this old friend, but Ye Xiu was one step faster than him and directly poached him from Happy.
Now Xingxin is preparing for the world game, and EDG is preparing for the relegation game, so naturally there is no chance of poaching.
However, the two of them also took this opportunity to resume their contact and occasionally communicate with each other.
Now is the time when it can be used...
Second update, see you tomorrow.
good night.
Give me some monthly ticket rewards or something.
