Chapter 165 Caps joins! S8 makes LPL completely desperate! Makes LPL completely regret it!
$10 million over three years?
If converted into Chinese currency, that would be nearly 80 million!
Upon hearing this salary price, Mingrui was suddenly pleasantly surprised.
Although he knows very well that after he helped the G2 team win the S7 world championship and became the S7 finals FMVP, boss Carlos will definitely bleed a lot in order to keep himself in the G2 team.
But he never expected that Carlos would be so happy that he directly offered himself more than 26 million Huaxia coins a year, which is almost the fixed salary price in League of Legends worldwide!
What does this mean?
This shows that Carlos is also optimistic that Dark can continue to lead the G2 team to compete for more world championships in the next three years!
"Very satisfied."
"But Carlos, can we just renew the contract for two years first?"
Faced with Carlos's trust and optimism, Mingrui was very moved and chose to refuse.
"Ah? Why? Has an LPL team already contacted you?"
Carlos was immediately shocked and asked nervously, because he also knew very well that the capital in China was still very willing to spend money to buy players. Although Dark and the entire LPL were in a stalemate, maybe there was an LPL team that was willing to "stand up to the wind"
"Commit a crime" and spend money to buy Dark back!
"No, no, not to mention that LPL may not have the nerve to contact me now. Even if they contact me, I will refuse directly. After all, I am not familiar with them."
"I want to change the contract period from three years to two years just because in two years, our G2 team will be able to win three consecutive world championships. By then, our G2 team will not only be able to successfully establish our third consecutive
The championship dynasty is a triple crown dynasty that can surpass the SKT team in one fell swoop!"
"At that time, if my annual salary was still less than 30 million a year, it would definitely be relatively small."
Mingrui smiled and spoke directly from his heart, not hiding his true inner thoughts from his boss Carlos.
"If you can really lead the G2 team to win three consecutive world championships, this salary is indeed a bit small."
"Okay, then I respect your idea. Let's sign a two-year, 60 million contract first."
"As for the extra price, I hope we can sign a supplementary agreement, which is a priority renewal right for the G2 team."
Carlos didn't dwell too much on this issue because he was not like the LPL team managers that Dark despised every day. He could only see the immediate benefits but could not see the immediate future at all!
You know, the Dark player is only 17 years old this year, and will only be 18 years old after the Chinese New Year next year.
And if the "peak age" of professional players is calculated as 20 to 22 years old, Dark at this moment has actually not reached his peak!
But before reaching his peak, Dark is already the world champion. So in the next two years, when Dark's strength will definitely become stronger and stronger, looking around the world, who else will be there?
Can you become Dark's opponent, become the G2 team's opponent?!
So, without saying anything else, the boss, Carlos, immediately asked his lawyer to draft a new contract.
While waiting, Carlos also calculated his S7 competition bonus with Mingrui.
The first is the bonus for the S7 World Championship. The total S7 World Championship bonus share that the G2 team can get is just over 1.72 million US dollars, so calculated as one-fifth, Mingrui’s bonus is 344,000, before tax.
Next is the bonus for the Finals FMVP. Carlos doesn’t know yet how much it is, but it is expected to be at least over 1 million US dollars.
Then there is the share of the championship skin, but it will take a long time to receive this bonus. It will have to wait until Riot Games officially produces and sells the championship skin in the middle of next year before Mingrui can get the sales share of the championship skin.
However, these bonuses can only be regarded as the icing on the cake for Mingrui now. After all, his basic salary has already reached a terrifying US$4 million per year!
"By the way, Dark, do you think that with the S7 championship lineup of our G2 team, we can successfully win the S8 World Championship with 100% success?"
After completing the contract renewal, Carlos suddenly asked a new question, which stunned Mingrui for a moment.
"Absolutely. My teammates are all very capable."
Mingrui hesitated.
"Everyone is indeed very strong, otherwise it would be impossible to win the world championship."
"But let me tell you what I think. Do you listen to what I say?"
"Among the five starting players of the G2 team, only you and Perkz are world-class in strength. I think the strength of the other three is slightly inferior."
"You also saw the two games that were lost by BO5 in the finals. Either Expect didn't perform well, or the duo in the bottom lane didn't perform well. In addition, the incense burner version gave Zven an extra boost in strength..."
"Carlos, you are the boss, just say what you want to say."
Hearing this, Mingrui probably guessed what Carlos meant, so he asked directly.
"Okay, then I'll just tell you."
"In the new season of S8, I want to strengthen the members of the G2 team!"
"For the mid lane position, I want to buy Caps from FNC... I'm already in contact, there shouldn't be any big problem."
"Then as for Perkz, I want him to switch from the mid laner position to the shooter position... I have actually told him about this in advance, and he is very willing."
"As for the top laner and support positions, I haven't decided yet, but the G2 team lineup for the new season will definitely have you Dark as the core, with Caps and Pekrz as your right-hand men."
"In this way, after the overall strength of the G2 team is further improved, we can also have greater confidence in our goal of defending the world championship."
"What do you think?"
Carlos said decisively, but finally asked Mingrui for his opinion.
"I don't think there's any problem."
"But I hope that when you tell Zven and the others about this matter, you won't hurt their feelings like those garbage LPL teams."
Mingrui said seriously that when faced with the word "capital", he felt honestly and had mixed emotions.
"Of course."
"If they are willing to stay as substitutes, I would certainly welcome them."
"If they want to get more playing opportunities, I will definitely help them arrange a good home."
Carlos said with a smile, and then officially ended the contract renewal ceremony with Mingrui.
Immediately afterwards, the official website of the G2 team couldn't wait to release the official news that "G2.Dark players have officially renewed their contracts for two years", which immediately made countless LPL professional teams in various major regions tremble in their hearts.
Because they know that if Dark directly renews his contract for two years, then in the next two years, at least in next year's S8, the defending champion G2 team will still become the most powerful contender for the world championship!
However, this "major competition areas" obviously does not include the LPL competition area.
Because just after the next month-long transfer period, the LPL division became extremely swollen again as if it was about eating rather than fighting, and even shouted the slogan "S8 is the last year of LPL's hope" again!
There is no other reason, because just after the end of this transfer period, the major teams in the LPL division have been strengthened to a considerable extent in terms of card strength!
The first is the RNG team that achieved good results in the top four of S7.
With all five starting players from S7 remaining on the team, the RNG team also officially introduced jungler Karsa from the former LMS division Flash Wolves team, and also promoted a talented new ad named Able.
In addition, Firefox Feng Ge was promoted to head coach, and a new coach Heart was also introduced.
Next is the EDG team that achieved good results in the top eight of S7.
For the top lane position, Mouse was sold to the RW team, the substitute top laner Audi was sold to BLG, and the former C9 top laner Ray was introduced.
In addition to remaining on the team for the jungle position, the director of the jungle position sold substitute jungler Fireloli to OMG and brought up a new jungler named Haro from the EDG youth training.
Then there is the WE team that achieved good results in the top 16 of S7.
All five starting players have stayed on the team, and no personnel have been introduced. They are preparing to fight for another year with the original team.
In addition to these three S7 seed teams, the most noteworthy team in the LPL is the IG team.
Because the talented newcomer AD player Jackeylove, who is highly anticipated by the entire LPL, has finally turned 17 and can finally appear in the LPL professional arena during the S8 Spring Split!
At the same time, a talented new top laner player Theshy also appeared in the top lane position. It is said that he is killing Buddhas in the top lane, and he can't do it suddenly.
For Mingrui himself, there are two transfer events worth mentioning.
One is that after the LSPL became the LDL, the golden left-hand Knight finally transferred from the YM team in the secondary league to the SNG team in the LPL.
Another one is Zeng Qi Yagao, who was promoted to the starting mid laner by the JDG team after the big anchor Doinb transferred to the RW Rogue Warriors team.
So for the three heroes of Pingxiang, the good news is that all three have become real professional players. The bad news is that it may not take too long before they meet on the stage of the World Championship.
However, judging from the past results of the two e-commerce teams Suning and JD.com, it is obvious that there are still many years before they can reach the World Championship, so Mingrui is not paying attention to it for the time being.
What he is more concerned about at this time is that these rubbish LPL teams have the nerve to shout the slogan "S8 is the last year of LPL's hope" after the transfer period!
Not to mention that this slogan is shouted every year and fails every year.
Why did Kangdi's prostitution and Xiaohu's abortion suddenly come to an end?!
"Haha, the LPL is indeed a bunch of rubbish teams, playing double standards."
Mingrui sneered again and again, and soon saw the words used by some idiot fans to whitewash the two of them.
Regarding "Kang Emperor's prostitution", this is how the idiot fans clean it up.
First, Emperor Kangdi was not caught on the spot for soliciting prostitution, and there was no substantive evidence, so even if the police were called, it would be impossible to file a case.
Second, Kandi is an e-sports player. In the final analysis, e-sports is still dominated by commercial capital. If Kandi were a national professional athlete, he would definitely be banned if something like this happened, but he is not.
Third, individuals make mistakes, and netizens must forgive Kandi this time.
Regarding the "Little Tiger Abortion" incident, the whitewashing content of brain-dead fans is even more "smart".
Because if Emperor Kang's soliciting for prostitution was illegal, then Xiaohu had not committed any illegal behavior in the entire incident. Whether it was abortion or sleeping with powder, it was a consensual matter between both parties.
And when Mingrui looked at the official scarves of the RNG team and the WE team, he confirmed that the two teams did not impose any punishment on the two, and did not even respond to these two incidents during the entire process.
As expected, a faint smile appeared on Mingrui's face.
"Very good, rubbish LPL, success makes me hate it even more."
"Since you don't plan to deal with this matter yourself, then let me do it for God!"
Mingrui sneered, and finally released a new scarf after many days.
"@G2.Dark: I will ask these four questions every day from now on."
"First, did RNG apologize to me today?"
"Second, did WE apologize to me today?"
"Third, was Xiaohu fired from RNG today?"
"Fourth, was Kandi fired from WE today?"
"I can't get answers to these four questions for a day. These two rubbish teams, as well as all the LPL teams that can go to the World Championship, don't even think about having a good life one day!"
"I, Dark, do what I say!"
"At the same time, in response to the slogan shouted by these rubbish teams that S8 is the most promising year for the LPL, I suggest you not to have this daydream."
"Because of this S8, I will definitely make it the darkest year for your LPL!"
"LPL, continue to wait for me to die!"
Mingrui gritted his teeth and said.
As if to add momentum to Mingrui's speech, immediately after Mingrui released the scarf, the official scarf of the G2 team also officially announced the G2 team's S8 season team roster!
Top laner, Wunder!
Jungler, Dark!
Mid laner, Caps!
Bottom player, Perkz!
Support player, Hylissang!
Subsequently, the specific situation of all G2 team members was announced in one go.
The world championship combination of Zven and Mithy in the bottom lane was packaged and purchased by the North American TSM team.
Top laner Expect was bought by Origen, a European team formed by xPeke (the man who stole Kassadin's famous scene).
Substitute jungler Trick returned to the LCK division and began playing for the BBQ team.
And when the G2 team completed the official announcement of the new S8 season roster, LPL fans who were still mocking Mingrui's scarf took a breath of cold air.
Because the G2 team's lineup for this new season, judging from its superficial strength, is really too strong!
Let’s not talk about the jungler Dark, the S7 finals FMVP, an existence that the entire LPL and even the world have to regard as a strong enemy.
Mid laner Caps is the most talented mid laner second only to Faker in the entire history of Europe and even the entire world championship! Even in order to welcome Caps' arrival, mid laner Perkz, who had just won the world championship, was willing to transfer to Caps for him.
Bottom shooter position.
Although top laner Wunder and support Hylissang are not particularly famous, their abilities are among the best in Europe.
The most important thing is that these two people are also the kind of people who really like to dress up and put on faces that can be seen to the naked eye!
Because just after the G2 team made the official announcement, Wunder and Hylissang posted new tweets one after another, saying that they were "ready to follow the G2 team to win the world championship again."
He even threatened to set up an account on China's bib platform as quickly as possible because "only on the bib can we follow Dark and charge into battle"!
"Good guys, isn't the G2 team's S8 lineup a little too strong?"
"So is S8 really the most promising year for our LPL? Why do you feel that S8 is the year when G2 team has the best chance to defend the world championship?"
"It doesn't matter if they are strong, these five people feel like they are all masters of the game... S8, the LPL team must win, otherwise the G2 gang will kill us just by spraying us with their mouths!"
"Why are you cowardly? G2's lineup is indeed very strong, but our LPL team's lineup is stronger than them!"
"Isn't RNG strong? Isn't EDG strong? Isn't IG strong? Isn't WE strong? Even the newly formed RW team is stronger than their G2 team!"
"Don't worry, except for SKT, there will never be another team in the history of the League of Legends World Championship that successfully defends the world championship, especially a garbage team like G2!"
"So when it is impossible for the G2 team to defend the title and the LCK team feels that the overall situation is stretched this year, S8 is indeed the most promising year for our LPL!"
“The MSI champion in at least half a year’s time must be our LPL Spring Championship team. After all, the Asian Games will start soon after the MSI is over, so in order to qualify for the Asian Games, the LPL Spring Championship team must risk their lives.
I will get the 2018 MSI championship in my hands!"
"LPL come on! LPL rush!"
"Last year, we made a mistake in S7. This year, in S8, our LPL must make that garbage Dark and feel what the real strength of the LPL division is!"
"You want our LPL to wait for death? I think it's just like trash Dark and trash G2 waiting to die!"
On the bib platform, some LPL viewers are quite rational and believe that S8's G2 team is indeed very strong, and it is very difficult for LPL teams to succeed in challenging the G2 team.
But there are still a large number of LPL fans, mainly the crazy fans of major teams who think their home team is invincible!
Especially the RNG team, because they clearly remember the highlight moment when the entire audience collectively shouted the name "RNG" at the end of the S7 World Championship!
Therefore, whether it is to avenge the G2 team or to live up to the expectations of all LPL fans, the RNG team must try their best to win the world championship in the S8 season and bring back their first world championship to the LPL.
Trophy!
As for the idiotic remarks made by RNG fans and other LPL fans, Mingrui was not only noncommittal, but even found it ridiculous.
Because he seemed to have heard these words half a year ago.
Unfortunately, half a year has passed and these LPL fans have not made any progress at all. They are still using the same words to dream about their illusory future.
So what Mingrui has to do next is very simple.
That is to continue to slaughter LPL teams mercilessly throughout 2018, win all world championships in front of LPL, and completely shatter all unrealistic illusions in the LPL division.
Let LPL be completely desperate!
Let LPL really regret it!
Let LPL finally understand that they have no other way out except disbandment!
The transition chapter is a bit tricky to write, and there should be another chapter tonight.
