Xu Ruoguang is very sensible and the transfer period is about to begin.
There isn't much time left for him.
Although he has been resting during this period, he is actually constantly searching for information about new and veteran players from all aspects with the help of his former manager Zhao.
The reason is very simple.
He wants to build his own club.
This idea has not lasted for a day or two. K1's experience was too unforgettable for Xu Ruoguang, and he did not want to endure this feeling anymore.
When your destiny is in the hands of others, once something happens, you don't even have a chance to fight.
Xu Ruoguang hates this feeling.
If something happens to the boss, the club will suddenly run out of funds, and it can only be disbanded even if it is reluctant.
Therefore, he no longer wants to be a wage earner, he wants to be a boss.
He wants the right to speak.
During this period, Manager Zhao advised him more than once.
"In the current environment, with the money you have, can you make it happen? The LPL's current entry quota is 34 million, one year. Do you understand what this concept is?"
"This is the admission fee, Ruoguang, it's just the admission fee, do you understand?"
Xu Ruoguang flicked the ash from his cigarette, his expression unchanged in the drifting smoke.
"I know."
"Club facilities and staff's monthly wages will cost millions or even tens of millions a year to maintain."
"Not to mention the players' signing fees and contract fees."
"I have more than 100 million in hand, which should be enough for one year."
Manager Zhao was stunned, "Are you still planning to do it alone?"
If he just felt that Xu Ruoguang was too naive at first, he now felt that Xu Ruoguang was ridiculous.
"You want to maintain the club by yourself, who do you think you are? Are you JD? Or SN? Are you Ma or Liu?"
"This is no longer the era of the rich second generation. The entire LPL is losing money when it comes to e-sports. Do you think you won't lose money? Bullshit!"
"People engage in e-sports because of...! Forget it, let's not talk about it. I advise you to give up on this idea."
Xu Ruoguang suddenly smiled.
"Ha ha."
"why are you laughing?"
Manager Zhao wondered.
"Brother Zhao, who told you that I was here to make money?"
Xu Ruoguang asked back,
“If you don’t engage in Hammer E-sports to make money, you should donate money.”
Manager Zhao retorted.
"I have already donated one million to my former orphanage. I donated five million to the Hope Project some time ago. It's not much because I want to run the club, but I did donate."
Xu Ruoguang said calmly,
Manager Zhao:?
Do you really want to donate?
"you you."
He looked at you for a long time without saying anything.
"Fuck me, Brother Zhao, I'll give you the best treatment."
"You are possessed!"
"I'm not crazy. I left 20 million. Even if I fail to set up an e-sports club this year, I won't be penniless. As for other money..."
Xu Ruoguang said patiently,
"For me, money can hardly buy me happiness."
"I just don't want to work anymore."
"Is it more than 100 million? It's a lot. I have never seen so much money in my life, but when you are born in this world, you must have something to pursue."
"Loss? I can afford to lose, and I will have no regrets when I serve."
This is Xu Ruoguang. In most cases, he is very rational.
But once you identify your ideas, you will never back down.
At that time, it was crazy to make a desperate move to go to SKT.
Now, it's still like this.
"I'm really impressed by you."
Manager Zhao said something, and then went to help Xu Ruoguang handle registration and club site selection with all his heart, and contacted the former K1 staff.
Seeing this, Xu Ruoguang could only thank him.
Manager Zhao also wants to give it a try.
But if someone else tells him about a project that is almost destined to fail, will Manager Zhao give him a hard time?
impossible.
Over time, the address has been chosen.
Opposite the EDG base, it is also on Lingshi Road.
After all, the former K1 staff did not get much back. After all, this is reality. It is impossible for people to wait for you for so long without finding another job. Everyone has a family to support.
But Xu Ruoguang is not sorry, enough is enough.
And today, Manager Zhao also came to urge him.
The most critical question is, who do the players look for?
"The club and logistics are pretty much done, and you are really willing to give me this salary."
Even Manager Zhao couldn't help but sigh.
Xu Ruoguang, this unfortunate young man, is not stingy at all in terms of salary.
This pattern...
Manager Zhao somewhat believes that he wants to take the club seriously.
However, that is still the most critical issue.
Players, who are you looking for?
"Isn't there a ready-made top order? There's no need to look for top orders."
Xu Ruoguang blinked and said with a smile.
"Yes, but our country does not yet have cloning technology, so the plan to clone Xu Ruoguang cannot be implemented."
Manager Zhao said sarcastically.
"This is indeed a pity. Brother Zhao, you are quite humorous."
"Xu Ruoguang!"
"Don't be angry, brother, it was just a joke."
Xu Ruoguang comforted him,
"Have you contacted some of the people I asked you to contact?"
"about there."
"TOP youth training 369."
"YM's jungler Tian, top laner Bin."
"WE's youth training Theshy, but this one is already in contact with IG."
“YM’s youth training wei.”
"OMG's youth training mid laner Bright, tanchi's bottom lane LWX and NEWbee's support pines."
After Manager Zhao finished speaking, he couldn't help but feel a little curious.
"Why do you want me to contact them?"
"Find a way to contact them. I am very optimistic about these people."
Xu Ruoguang said seriously.
"Even after contacting us, there aren't enough places. Do you still want to support youth training? We haven't bought a spot in the LSPL."
Manager Zhao was puzzled.
"Who told you I didn't buy it?"
Xu Ruoguang said calmly.
"You are great!"
Manager Zhao really didn’t expect that.
"Don't worry, these people may be able to make me a lot of money next year."
Xu Ruoguang rubbed his eyebrows and pretended to be relaxed.
"Okay, you're the boss, you're the biggest."
"But the question is, our club is still short of four members to play in the LPL next year. Who are you going to find?"
"The coach is probably still KKoma. You two are like the eternal hunting twins, completely inseparable."
Manager Zhao complained.
"I already have a plan for who to look for. Just take a look. I'll show you my buddy's connections!"
Xu Ruoguang is very confident because he has no intention of asking any players to lower their prices and will definitely give them enough rankings.
Money opens the way, and feelings help.
He didn't believe it.
"Okay, that's what you said."
Manager Zhao shrugged.
Xu Ruoguang wants the contact information of those players.
Don't expect to get everything, after all, other clubs are not stupid.
However, if there is one, his confidence will be even stronger.
Saying goodbye to Ah Shui's parents, Xu Ruoguang embarked on the journey.
As for AD?
"It's a lot of money, will you come or not?"
"Come."
You see, it's that simple.
YM base.
late at night.
The thin boy wearing glasses stared at the screen intently, muttering to himself from time to time because of his teammates' operations.
"Oh, I really beg you, you press him forward. The AD is already moving forward. Why are you squatting behind alone? Are you waiting for the jungler from the opposite side to come and beat your AD to death? How can you follow him?
You are like an animal, how can you be so good?"
"Yes, move forward and put pressure on me. Yes, why don't you kill me? Why are you hesitating, brother?"
"Hey! We're going out for supper, are you going? What are you doing with ranking today? Let's go?"
A loud voice in Northeastern dialect sounded behind him, and some swarthy young man reached out and patted his shoulder.
"I'll fight for a while, you go ahead."
He shook his head and declined.
The swarthy boy didn't insist, and exclaimed, "You've worked really hard, but I should still be the starter."
He left humming a little tune.
The thin boy brushed back his hair, which had not been shaved for a long time, and was stunned by the oil on his hands.
"It's time to wash your hair."
He muttered.
He stood up from his seat silently, and then squatted on the seat again.
This is his favorite position and he likes it whenever he's stressed.
On the screen that was still on the table, there was a conversation between him and his mother.
Mother: How was it in the past?
Mother: You are not wronged, are you?
He didn't dare to reply.
Although his mother is very supportive of him, this is what children do when they are away from home. No matter how bad their life is, they don’t want their family to know.
When the game ended, he did not immediately start the next game, but stared blankly at the screen.
When he raised his head, the lights were bright, but his future seemed dark.
I passed the trial training, but so what?
His performance in the training matches was really poor, even compared to the current starting jungler, that swarthy boy.
He's like a bonus.
The commemorative balls in Pokémon are the kind where you can buy ten and get one free.
He was amused by his strange idea, and his voice was choked with laughter.
"so hard……"
"It's so difficult..."
"It shouldn't be like this. My strength shouldn't be only like this..."
"I can not be reconciled."
He covered his face and sobbed quietly.
He knew that his mentality was unbalanced and he had lost his self-confidence.
That's why the performance is so bad.
But can we definitely solve the problem if we know it?
Uzi Hongwen has been cowardly for so many years, and Mingkai has been cowardly for so many years. Have they solved it?
No.
He is not willing to just sink into the bench like this. He wants to play games, he wants to stand on the stage, he wants to become a dazzling professional player, and he wants his parents to be proud of him.
However, if you don’t have enough strength, you just can’t go up.
He stopped his meaningless tears and sighed softly.
This is e-sports.
He rubbed his face vigorously, took a deep breath, adjusted his condition, and was about to start the next training session.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps coming from behind.
"...Yes, he is here. Let me confirm again. The contract you mentioned will not reduce the price, right? His recent performance has not been good."
"No, I believe him."
"Haha, you are really discerning."
The voice is so familiar.
Just as he was about to fire again, he was stunned.
The one who spoke first was the manager.
The voice at the back is not the voice of the staff in this base, nor is it the voice of teammates.
However, he always felt that he had heard it somewhere.
Where is it?
The footsteps got closer and closer, until they stopped behind him.
He couldn't help but look back.
Xu Ruoguang, who was wearing a down jacket, bent down curiously and looked at his screen with a smile.
"Are you still playing rank?"
Looking at that familiar side face, his pupils suddenly trembled, he opened his mouth, and his voice was a little dry.
"Light, light."
Xu Ruoguang laughed dumbly, "I'm not Ultraman."
stretch out a hand,
"Hello, this is the first time we meet. I am Xu Ruoguang."
He turned around nervously, wiped his hands hard on his pants, and reached out with some hesitation.
"Hello, my name is Gao Tianliang."
"We are quite destined, one is bright and the other is bright."
Xu Ruoguang saw that he was a little nervous, so he held his hand firmly and joked.
Xu Ruoguang smiled, and Gao Tianliang also smiled unconsciously.
Xu Ruoguang is his idol.
He never expected to see Xu Ruoguang here.
Moreover, he is so easy-going.
It is said that Brother Guang has a bad temper sometimes, and you can't tell it at all. Isn't this very elegant and easy-going?
Gao Tianliang thought.
"Hey, little God, player Xu Ruoguang values you very much. He traveled all day and night to come here. We have already negotiated a preliminary price, but our YM is still very humane."
The manager coughed, walked forward and said.
"If you want to stay in YM, we won't drive you away, but your current performance is indeed a bit unsatisfactory. You need to work harder in training in the future. When your performance reaches the standard, we will let you play."
"But if you want to leave YM, you have the opportunity now."
"Xu Ruoguang wants you to go to his club, are you willing?"
Gao Tianliang was speechless for a moment.
Me, me?
Brother Guang, are you here for me?
It may be difficult for some people to understand the fan effect. For example, if Jordan calls Kun Kun to play in the NBA, can Kun Kun refuse?
Gao Tianliang couldn't believe it and turned to look at Xu Ruoguang.
Xu Ruoguang nodded seriously and stretched out his hand again.
"Player Gao Tianliang, are you willing to come with me?"
"Maybe I can't guarantee your starting position now, but I believe in your future."
"Are you willing to give it a try?"
"Try to follow me and become the strongest top jungler in LPL or even the world."
Manager YM almost couldn't stand it from behind.
Just him?
It's far worse than ning.
Xu Ruoguang is the world's number one top laner Thaksin, can Gao Tianliang become the world's number one jungler?
You wouldn’t even dream of doing this!
Gao Tianliang saw the look of the YM manager behind him, his eyes flashed, and he extended his hand without hesitation.
"If I can, I'd like to go."
This short sentence revealed his determination to succeed or succeed.
"Even if you don't give me a salary, I still want this opportunity to go with Xu Ruoguang. I want to give it a try no matter what."
"What I want to do is just an opportunity to show the world what I can do."
"Let them see what I can do."
This is what Gao Tianliang is thinking now.
Xu Ruoguang smiled.
Gao Tianliang quickly packed his things and stepped out of the YM door without any nostalgia.
The two walked out of the YM base and gradually disappeared into the night.
Manager YM looked at their backs and couldn't help laughing.
"I didn't expect that a useless youth training could be sold for so much money. This Xu Ruoguang is really capable of being a player, but his vision is really bad!"
Bad?
Xu Ruoguang never considered this, he would only choose to believe in his own vision.
