When I picked up the phone, an unfamiliar number was displayed on the screen, but it belonged to Shanghai.
"A team is looking for me so soon?"
Lu Haoran was a little surprised and answered the phone.
"Hello, Mr. Lu."
"I am Pan Jie, the general manager of LGD E-Sports Club."
…
Half an hour later, Lu Haoran arrived at the Lao Gan Daddy Club and met Pan Jie, the general manager who insisted on interviewing him.
"Hello, Boss Pan, I'm Lu Haoran."
Walking into the old godfather's office, Lu Haoran shook hands with Pan Jie and said hello.
"Hello, Mr. Lu."
"I saw your job application information and roughly understood everything you did at IM."
"I just have a question. If you were asked to be the team manager of LGD, would you really have the confidence to lead the LGD team into the World Championship again?"
Pan Jie looked at Lu Haoran and asked worriedly.
Because this past year, the situation of the LGD team was really bad!
Last year in S5, after Lao Gan Daddy failed to make it to the group stage in the World Championship, I thought the team would realize its shame, regroup, and compete in the S6 World Championship again.
We even introduced champion top laner Marin for this!
But who would have thought that the performance of the LGD team in the entire S6 can almost be described as a broken can, and the performance is getting worse and worse!
In the Spring Split, although Lao Gan Daddy missed the first round of the playoffs, he still made it to the quarterfinals.
But in the summer split, they dived straight into the relegation round!
If you are not careful, it will be the result of downgrading to lspl!
Under such circumstances, Pan Jie naturally did not dare to let LGD sink like this, so she kept thinking about countermeasures.
Until today at noon, when I saw Lu Haoran’s job search information.
"have!"
"No matter which team comes to me, I am confident that I can lead it to qualify for the World Championship!"
Lu Haoran looked at Pan Jie with confidence.
"It doesn't matter which team it is?"
"Even the lspl team?"
Pan Jie originally thought that Lu Haoran would only be confident in his scarf, but she didn't expect that he himself would be so confident, so she frowned slightly.
"Yes, the lspl team can do it too."
"Last year, IM started as an LSPL team, but didn't they make it to the World Championship in the end? I can also replicate this miracle this year!"
"Of course, if you are a godfather, it will be slightly easier to accomplish this goal."
Lu Haoran smiled slightly and said, after all, if he just led the team to qualify for the World Championship, his "card drawing" ability would not be needed at all!
"Give me a reason to trust you."
Pan Jie's brows were still frowning. Although she was also a little disgusted with Lu Haoran's inexplicable self-confidence, she knew in her heart that he was able to lead IM to complete three consecutive jumps. As a manager, he definitely had two skills!
"Boss Pan, I don't actually need your belief. After all, even if I can't work in an LPL team, it's quite easy to find an LSPL team."
"But on the other hand, you and Godfather need my help, because Godfather has hit rock bottom now. If we don't give it a try, we might really fail to avoid relegation next season."
"Besides, Boss Pan, what does the current godfather have to lose?"
"It has been a full year since we won the 2015 Summer Championship, but I am getting farther and farther away from the championship."
"If you are willing to take a risk and agree to my conditions, then even if I really lied and failed to lead Godfather to the World Championship, there will definitely be no problem in continuing to avoid relegation in the LPL."
"To put it simply, Godfather's worst record next year will be the same as this year, but if he succeeds, it will be a profitable business!"
Lu Haoran looked at Pan Jie with a smile on his face, and he was still full of confidence in his words and deeds.
"Boss Pan, I can give you time to think about it."
"But I hope you can give me an answer as soon as possible, because the transfer period is about to begin. If it's too late, the potential players I'm interested in may be bought by other teams."
After Lu Haoran finished speaking, he slowly stood up and prepared to leave.
"etc!"
But as soon as he raised his feet, Pan Jie's voice suddenly sounded.
"I am willing to agree to your conditions, but because the risk of this matter is indeed very high, I will not provide you with any transfer funds during this transfer period."
"However, it will be your decision whether you want to stay or leave the current players on the Lao Gan Daddy team."
"At the same time, if the Lao Gan Daddy team is relegated after one season, you need to compensate for the loss of one LPL quota. Can you accept it?"
Pan Jie called out to stop Lu Haoran's footsteps, and then said in a solemn tone.
"On gambling?"
"Boss Pan, actually there is no need for me to bet against you. After all, everything is risky."
"But I am willing to agree to your proposal. After all, few LPL teams are willing to give a manager such great power. This can be regarded as your trust in me."
"But when it comes to betting, it can't just be compensation without reward, right?"
"If Lao Gan Daddy fails to avoid relegation next season, I will compensate. If he succeeds in avoiding relegation, nothing will happen. If I make it to the playoffs, I need enough bonuses. If I make it to the World Championship, I hope to get lgd League of Legends points.
Ministry’s shares!”
"Are you willing to accept this gambling agreement?"
Lu Haoran looked at Pan Jie with his head held high, and a powerful aura suddenly emerged, which even shocked Pan Jie!
If Godfather really enters the World Championship, will Lu Haoran want shares?
"..."
"I promise you! I can even give you more money!"
"If you enter the World Championship, I will give you 5% of the shares. If you are in the top eight, it will be 10%. If you are in the top four, it will be 15%. If you are the runner-up, it will be 20%.
The championship...is 50%!"
Pan Jie also stood up, waved her hand, and offered her price to Lu Haoran, already making a small calculation in her mind.
One manager holds 50% of the shares of the League of Legends division? If other clubs knew about this ratio, they would probably think they were crazy!
But in fact, Pan Jie just painted a big pie for Lu Haoran, and did not think that he could really lead LGD to win the world championship in one year. After all, that is something that LGD has not accomplished in 15 years!
But why did you agree to this condition?
Just let Lu Haoran work hard for this goal. Even if he doesn't win the world championship in the end, the old godfather's performance in S7 will definitely not be bad!
"Okay, deal!"
Lu Haoran thought that it would be quite good to get about 10% of the shares, but Pan Jie was so generous and directly increased the shares to 50%!
It seems that you don’t believe that I can create this miracle?
Then when the time comes, when you really want to hand over half of your shares to me, don't feel bad.
Lu Haoran looked at Pan Jie, who was also smiling, with a smile on his face, and he already had a chance of victory in his heart!
