Like Gu Xing, Jack also made the final decision.
Stay at VG.
Ding Jun brought Gu Xing into the office, "I know that you and Jack will probably have a disagreement in private, but we still follow the standard procedure and sign the contract separately."
He opened the drawer with a key, took out a document and handed it over.
"You can take it home to see it, or you can discuss it with your parents," Ding Jun said with ease, and poured a glass of water for Gu Xing, "Many players who sign a contract for the first time do this."
Gu Xing took a quick glance first.
"Let me explain in advance that the e-sports players signed with the club are not labor contracts," Ding Jun explained to him, "because under normal circumstances, there are restrictions on student status, and there is no way to establish a labor relationship."
Gu Xing can understand this. Some people can work as anchors while still in school. The contract must be different from that of ordinary companies.
"Here..." Gu Xing raised his head, "Is the date not right?"
Ding Jun took a look and said, "Yes, according to Riot regulations, a player's contract expiration date must be within the transfer period. This winter transfer period starts on November 18th, so our cooperative relationship will begin on that day."
termination."
"However, the summer split of the secondary league ends on August 6th, and the last day of the LPL bubble competition is August 28th. After the summer split, only the World Championship remains in the entire season. Nest is the national e-sports competition.
And the Demacia Cup, the former goes without saying, the latter two events are not important, you don’t need to participate.”
According to the date, it will definitely not delay Gu Xing's schooling.
This is why other clubs, knowing that Gu Xing could only play for less than three months, still asked him to lead the second team in the secondary league.
The LSPL will be played in early August, and the most critical battle for quotas will also end by then. The subsequent German Cup and Nest in October and November are completely useless. They are purely for newcomers to practice. If he can't get in, it will be useless.
.
Participating in the summer competition does not conflict with Gu Xing's studies at all.
"The total salary is 57,000. Since you are a free agent, you will also be given a signing fee of 20,000, which is the expenses paid to the players before the contract salary is paid, totaling 77,000," Ding Jun explained to him, "Let me explain in advance.
The salary is not calculated based on the 6 months of the contract period..."
Gu Xing nodded, "I understand, after all, I only play in one summer season."
It would be inappropriate for Ding Jun to give him half a year's salary.
After the influx of capital, salaries in the League of Legends circle have experienced a slight increase. The general salary has officially entered the five-digit mark from a few thousand yuan in 2015.
The salary of starting players in the secondary league is generally around 10,000 yuan, while the salary of starting players in the LPL is doubled again.
His contract, based on two and a half months, averages over 20,000 yuan per month.
Definitely not low for a newcomer.
"Firstly, I value your potential and think you can definitely make a name for yourself in the e-sports circle. Secondly, because..." Ding Jun paused, and his tone was unusually proud, "We have money."
The salaries of Long Ge and Xiao Duan in the team are also higher than those of players at the same level. The latter have now saved enough money to almost pay off their family's 300,000 foreign debt.
"It is said that the people in VG's League of Legends branch are stupid and have too much money. They only buy well-known Korean players and then fail to achieve results, but I think it is still acceptable to spend money on the wrong people," Ding Jun guessed that he was attracted by LGD next door.
After being infected, I am now very optimistic, "At least we are trying to change."
"Maybe when will you turn over?"
Gu Xing put the contract away and asked by the way, "By the way, Mr. Ding, you said before that you wanted to strengthen the first team...do you have any clues?"
"Lu Wenjun and I tried to contact some teams," Ding Jun felt that this was no secret. "We originally planned to find imp, but LGD wouldn't sell it."
His attitude is very firm.
If you want to buy Korean aid, just buy it.
Gu Xing was speechless, "Imp is one of the cores of LGD, and it will definitely not be sold."
He can figure it out even if he doesn't have to be a manager.
"No, no, no, our League of Legends branch has a very good relationship with LGD." Ding Jun saw that it was still early and simply said a few more words, "Now LGD's jungler Eimy and head coach Heart were both from VG's second team.
player."
"Our second team will also trade Punished, a mid laner from the other side, during this transfer period... Even LGD's current starting mid laner Gao Dewei was originally a VG player."
Gu Xing is very clear about this information.
But Ding Jun's next words really shocked him.
"Redmi was the co-coach of our two clubs last year."
Gu Xingqing couldn't help but lean forward, showing an expression of disbelief, "Ah?"
Can coaches still be shared?
What kind of plot is this?
"Redmi was responsible for BP work at Samsung White at the beginning. He followed the players to the country and we bought Mata. He wanted the coach to come and help so that the concepts could be coordinated and unified," Ding Jun elaborated, "and the white team's shooter Imp
When I go to LGD, I plan to bring Hongmi along with me."
"I made some calculations with LGD, and it happened that the two League of Legends branches are neighbors. I simply divided Hongmi's salary and subsidized him a little more, so that he could do the work of both companies at the same time."
Gu Xing was dumbfounded.
"The contract submitted to the league was signed by Redmi with VG, so he appears on our club's roster and is responsible for BP, but he is also in charge of LGD's training game review and pre-match BP discussions."
Hearing this, Gu Xing finally came to his senses, "Isn't it illegal to do this?"
He felt outrageous even thinking about it.
"It's true that it was against the rules, so at the end of the S5 Summer Split, after LGD won the championship and became the No. 1 seed in the division, the coach Chris on the LGD roster at the time... was the one who closed the door. Now in IG, when you go to trial training, you should
I've seen it before." Ding Jun was afraid that he didn't know, so he explained.
"For various reasons, he blasted the club management on Weibo, saying that the team illegally hired Hongmi and emptied his power." Ding Jun was also helpless. "Finally, Gao Dewei and other players came out to reprimand Chris and directly He was kicked off the team."
"In order to avoid suspicion, Redmi was unable to participate in the S5 global finals. LGD could only ask analyst Huohu to be the temporary coach. As a result, they discussed with the team members and used the fire man to make the iron man."
This meme was extremely popular back then.
Gu Xing remembered that Shen Guanshan, who had never played League of Legends, asked him who Tetsuo was.
But he finally understood a truth.
The League of Legends divisions of VG and LGD are now no different than wearing a pair of pants, the relationship is as strong as ever.
The team members and the coach share their knowledge and skills. You help me and I help you. We are all good brothers.
"Imp himself doesn't really want to stay in LGD anymore. After he finished last year's World Championship, he always felt like someone in the team was messing with him. My good brother Gao Dewei also had a tense relationship with the management recently," Ding Jun took a sip of water to moisten his throat. , "I talked to the other party's boss and the progress was pretty good, but no matter how close the relationship between the two companies is, LGD can't sell it to us for nothing. They want to strengthen it."
"If Imp leaves, LGD currently does not have a reliable shooter to replace him. This is the biggest problem, and our negotiations will be deadlocked here."
Ding Jun stopped the topic in time, "But we are all clubs. VG will communicate with LGD. We are all neighbors... Even if I can't get Imp, I will find other players."
JackeyLove may not be able to steadily step onto the LPL stage in the summer. It is impossible for him to gamble on the odds. It is reasonable to be more prudent and buy an AD for rotation.
At this point, Gu Xing's trial training trip to Shanghai has finally settled.
The next day, Jack sent him to the train station, not forgetting to warn him, "Lao Gu, hurry up and come back from the college entrance examination, and we will go straight to kill him!"
Gu Xing took the suitcase from the team leader Jin Wenhe, "Everyone, go back. Ding Ran and I will enter the station right now."
Ding Jun stretched out his hand to shake his hand, "I'm waiting for your good news. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me."
Gu Xing raised his lips, agreed with a smile, checked in with his friends and entered the station, blending into the huge crowd.
