Because of the joining of Brother, the doubts about Lin Cheng's contract renewal seem to be cast a shadow again.
After all, Lin Cheng announced the introduction of a new top laner before renewing his contract, and he is a capable player like Brother. The first reaction of normal fans is that Lin Cheng failed to renew his contract.
KT fans tortured the management like crazy, and Lin Cheng couldn't bear to see all the firepower being output.
In fact, the introduction of Rascal was proposed by Lin Cheng.
This substitute is very important. According to KT's management, it is to recruit a player from the youth training to take over, but Lin Cheng disagrees.
In Lin Cheng's view, he must have a substitute with sufficient level.
Although the situation of the Asian Games is still uncertain, if the team really loses the summer championship because of his early departure, it will undoubtedly be a huge harm to the fans.
To take a step back, even if you don’t compete for the championship, you still have to compete for a spot in the World Championship, right?
Even the Spring Championship does not guarantee tickets to the World Championship. It would be fun if a temporary youth training team was brought up and the whole team exploded, or even the World Championship spot might be lost.
After all, KT's strategy for next year will definitely focus on the top lane. If the teammates are used to this style of play, and suddenly the core top laner is replaced by an inexperienced top laner from the youth training at the most critical time, no one dares to know what will happen.
think.
The most suitable player in the transfer market is undoubtedly Rsacal.
He has rich experience and is not expensive.
Lin Cheng took the initiative to call and chat with his brother for a long time, and Mr. Dai also helped.
Although he didn't really want to be a substitute, Rascal agreed to join KT under the persuasion of Big Brother and the temptation of the championship honor.
What if I get a mixed skin next year?
Fans didn't know the inside story, and the KT section of the DC forum was filled with lamentations and all kinds of negative comments.
On the contrary, the T1 sector is singing and dancing, and is beginning to imagine how T1's Youth Storm will dominate the LCK next year after Lin Cheng leaves the team.
The T1 club's recent operations have already made it clear that the lineup will be fixed for next season. As long as Faker's contract renewal is completed, T1's new warship will set sail.
Of course, it would be even better if we could sign Lin Cheng.
Zhao Mashi publicly admitted on Twitter that he had made an offer to Lin Cheng, but he also said that due to fierce competition, the hope may not be high.
But fans just accept this. Everyone knows how popular Lin Cheng is, so it’s normal if he can’t sign him.
As long as Lin Cheng is not in KT next season, it will be fine.
As long as Zhao Mashi is willing to spend money for the team, he is a good CEO.
Of course, if they knew about Zhao Mashi's insulting offer of 5 billion and 1,000 won, the fans who are still looking forward to Lin Cheng joining would probably faint with anger.
November 22, KT club office building.
The conference room was quiet, with the only sound of the rustling of paper.
Lin Cheng lay lazily on the conference table, looking bored.
An Haosheng sat next to Lin Cheng. He looked a little haggard. He must have been tortured by KT fans these days.
Because of his promise to Sister Shiyan, Lin Cheng did not post in advance this year to express his determination to fans to stay in the team, and all the pressure was borne by Mr. An Haosheng.
There were other staff nearby, all waiting quietly for the cold woman to check the contract.
Zheng Shiyan, dressed in black professional attire, sat at the conference table, lowering her head and slowly flipping through the documents in her hand. She looked calm and serious, as if she didn't care about the eyes around her at all.
Lin Cheng glanced around restlessly, then turned to look at Zheng Shiyan's serious profile.
She is indeed Sister Siyeon! Her aura at work is simply invincible.
The total price of the new contract given by KT is 7 billion Korean won, which is approximately RMB 38 million, as negotiated before.
This number is exaggerated. Although it is still not comparable to the quotations of some LPL teams, it is different when including Lin Cheng's image rights. If commercial income is included, the total contract price should be more than 10 billion won.
If Lin Cheng works hard, the number of commercial contracts with multiple contacts will be even more exaggerated.
In fact, KT giving Lin Cheng so much was the result of countless high-level discussions.
In the past two years, with the increase in exposure, the sponsorship received by KT has increased dramatically, and the KT club has also achieved profitability.
That's right! In the past, KT spent money every year and almost always lost money. The KT Group behind it didn't expect to make a profit by operating the club. Unexpectedly, after making a profit last year, this year's largest investment in history would make even greater profits.
Achievements are important, but traffic is actually even more critical.
Why is T1's LOL division still profitable despite having no results in the past two years? The main reason is that Faker has a lot of traffic.
Although the entire T1 club lost more than 10 billion last year, the main reason was that all other divisions of T1 were losing money, while the LOL division was making money to support other departments.
This is the dividend of Faker traffic.
If it weren't for Faker's support, the media estimated that the total losses of the entire T1 club would have reached more than 30 billion.
The same is true for Lin Cheng now, and he can not only guarantee traffic but also performance. Once KT loses Lin Cheng, the consequences will be unimaginable.
With this year's operating budget soaring, the club's top management naturally tried their best to renew Lin Cheng's contract.
7 billion won, this figure is enough to shock the entire South Korea.
In addition, special clauses regarding the Asian Games were also clearly included in the contract.
Once the Asian Games is held as scheduled and the domestic epidemic situation remains severe, Lin Cheng can activate the clause to leave the team early, and KT will not stop him in any way.
In the eyes of some viewers, the Asian Games is the biggest obstacle preventing Lin Cheng from renewing his contract with KT. No one would have thought that the club would come up with such an operation to let Lin Cheng leave the team early.
Finally, Zheng Shiyan confirmed the contract, and Lin Cheng signed his name in Chinese.
The staff nearby quickly recorded this moment.
An Haosheng looked relieved and patted Lin Cheng on the shoulder.
He was relieved. No words could describe the pressure he was feeling recently.
Having suffered the biggest cyberbullying in his life, Lin Cheng wanted to give up his job if he didn't sign.
After signing the contract, Lin Cheng and An Haosheng had a brief chat about the recruitment work.
The club has started negotiations with Canyon and Showmaker based on Lin Cheng's request, but DK also does not want to give up its midfielder.
The two clubs compete fiercely, and An Haosheng also bluntly said that it is very difficult to sign these two people.
After all, Kia has increased its investment in DK this year and wants to make a big splash. It will not be easy for KT to grab people.
Of course, even if you can't get it, you still have to raise the price.
Who said DK wanted to steal Lin Cheng before?
You really think we don’t hold grudges, do you?
We KT are not easy to bully either.
The club acted quickly. Just a few minutes after Lin Cheng signed, the official social media released a photo of Lin Cheng signing in the conference room.
The greatest signing ever!!!
This is not an official announcement, it is just to appease the fans and protect Mr. An Haosheng’s family tree.
Fans are excited.
"Assi! The wait is finally here! Ahhhhhhhhhhh"
"Misunderstanding Cleared! An Haosheng, My Superman"
"I was almost ready to drive a truck to create a deathbed representative! If there is no official announcement, I might really make a mistake"
"It doesn't matter, if you hit the wrong one, the worst thing you can do is give him two extra sticks of incense (funny)"
"The King Still Stands! He Has Not Abandoned Us"
"Cheng! Take us to rush again!"
"The captain is in place! KT3.0 is ready to take off"
"As long as Cheng is around, KT will be the most luxurious battleship! LCK is ready to continue to tremble!"
"Wait until next season and become a KT traitor!"
KT fans were so happy that Mr. Ahn Ho-sheng's confiscated family tree was returned, and everyone expressed a little bit of regret.
Zaza is just heartbroken and heartbroken.
Why is this guy still haunting me?
Will you continue to fight against us next year?
How much did Zhao Mashi offer? Why didn't he win over KT?
