I don’t know what kind of brainwave exchanges took place between these buyers. The situation took a turn for the worse and the script developed unexpectedly.
What was originally three pieces of cake suddenly turned into a hot potato.
It went from being fought over by everyone to being ignored by no one!
The managers of the three clubs were on pins and needles.
If possible, they don't mind bidding against each other, left hand versus right hand, you buy me, I buy him, he buys you. In this way, a perfect cycle of the same price can at least keep the gog branch.
But the problem is that Mr. Pei seems to have anticipated this a long time ago and blocked this possibility in the rules in advance.
All the companies present now have paid deposits in advance, and they are not eligible to bid if they fail to pay the deposit.
And these three clubs had no intention of engaging in this kind of showy operation of buying each other, and had no preparations in advance.
What's more, if you jump out and try this trick now, isn't this a joke?
Not to mention whether Mr. Pei was happy or allowed it, after all, they probably already offended Mr. Pei when they decided to sell the gog branch.
More importantly, if the three clubs really engage in such a ridiculous operation of buying themselves, will it become big news in the e-sports circle?
The club is expected to be ridiculed to death by the masses. The club owners may be able to accept the loss of several million, but they absolutely cannot accept the loss of the club's reputation and become a joke on the Internet!
Therefore, the three club managers looked at each other and saw panic in each other's eyes.
It’s over!
Now this problem is completely unsolvable!
No matter how they deal with it, the three of them will take the blame, be scolded, and have their salaries reduced and fines considered light.
Maybe let alone being fired, the entire e-sports circle may not be able to survive!
Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of Manager Li and others.
Especially the two club managers looked at Manager Li with anger in their eyes.
Manager Li was the one taking the blame from the beginning to the end. If it weren't for Manager Li's insistence, they wouldn't have reached this point inexplicably.
But now, Manager Li is unable to protect himself. He can only lower his head silently and rack his brains to think of countermeasures.
The bidding is still going on, and it has slowly approached the psychological price limit of all buyers.
As for Mr. Pei's psychological limit, it has already been exceeded.
Pei Qian originally thought that selling the GoG branches of the three clubs for 20 million and each GPL spot for 15 million would be enough.
The e-sports industry has just started. Selling more than 10 million seats is really a lot. We have to abide by the market rules, right?
But the problem now is that the GoG branches of the three clubs have stopped at less than 15 million, but the GPL quota is approaching 20 million!
It seems that the 6 places will be sold for 120 million, which is more than 30 million higher than Pei Qian's previous psychological bottom line.
You know, the liquidated damages of those three clubs some time ago were less than 10 million!
Pei Qian felt like his brain was lacking oxygen.
Some buyers are typing frantically on their mobile phones, possibly asking their subordinates to raise funds urgently.
Although everyone has a maximum bidding price in mind, it is very easy to get fooled in situations like bidding.
Because the more people raise the price, the more valuable this spot becomes!
Lin Chang observed the reactions of others with great interest, as if he was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.
Of all the people present, he was the most relaxed.
Because he has the most funds in his hands, no one can threaten him, not to mention that the money he spends is not his own, so he doesn't feel bad at all.
However, seeing the atmosphere at the scene getting more and more lively, Lin Chang suddenly realized a problem.
"Hey, is this situation already planned by Mr. Pei?"
"This method of auctioning all the places together, although you cannot use a bid to raise the price, can create an atmosphere of 'fairness, justice and value for money'."
"If we bid one by one, some people will choose to wait and see. The quotations for each quota will definitely be different. It is inevitable that they will wonder whether there is a bubble or whether they have made a loss."
"But now that we are filming together, the value of all the spots increases simultaneously, and no one can miss it. This makes people give up on taking chances and realize that these spots are indeed worth so much money. Then the companies that originally planned to give up will grit their teeth and work hard.
, thinking that if I add another one million, I can get the quota.”
"In other words, it creates a subconscious feeling in the minds of buyers that 'the quota is really worth the money'..."
"sharp!"
"From the location selection of the bidding venue to the bidding method, everything seems ordinary, but in fact it contains profound meanings!"
"However, I'm not bad either. If I hadn't given you a clear reminder, how could everyone understand so quickly that 'the quota is actually more valuable'?"
Lin Chang couldn't help but feel a little proud.
This time I came to buy a GPL quota for my second brother Lin Zhou. It can be said that the task was successfully completed!
However, as the saying goes, a journey of 100 miles must be completed in 90%, and it must end well in the end.
How to finish?
Lin Chang fell into deep thought again.
The frequency of people raising their hands to bid became less and less, and eventually, the scene fell into a brief silence.
In the end, no one raised the price of the three e-sports clubs, and it was fixed at around 15 million, while the quotas for the following GPLs were basically maintained at 20 million.
The figure of 20 million has exceeded the psychological expectations of most buyers, and many people gritted their teeth and increased the price temporarily.
It will be difficult to add more.
After all, the current e-sports industry is not mature enough in terms of popularity, traffic and profit model. It is incomparable with some mature traditional sports leagues. It all relies on everyone's trust in Mr. Pei to reach such a high level. This is already
The numbers are astronomical.
Everyone has no doubt that as soon as today's bidding ends and this number is revealed, it will become a hot search topic.
Even if the popularity is not enough, everyone will spontaneously buy trolls to increase the popularity, because this is in everyone's common interest.
After spending so much money, of course the whole world should know!
If the money spent can be recovered from the attention, it will not be a loss.
When a GPL list is released, and my company is on the list, isn't this also equivalent to a wave of advertising?
As for those companies that really can't afford so much money, they have no choice but to give up.
Pei Qian felt a little numb. When he saw that everyone finally stopped bidding, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s finally over!
Although it is difficult to accept a quota of 20 million, but the matter is now over, there is nothing more to say.
However, just when the staff was about to announce the end of the auction, something unexpected happened.
Lin Changyi raised his hand: "No. 4, 21 million."
Everyone in the conference room immediately looked at him with surprised expressions.
Pei Qian was also surprised.
Because the GPL quota No. 4 was originally taken by Lin Chang, which was 20 million.
You have already taken pictures, but you still have to increase the price yourself. What kind of operation is this?
Others were obviously equally confused, and even the record-keeping staff was stunned. For a moment, they didn't know whether they should write it up or not.
Lin Chang, who was in the spotlight, spread his hands: "Look what I'm doing? The rules only say that a company can only bid for one place, but it doesn't restrict you from increasing the price, right?"
The staff thought about it and it seemed to be the truth.
People are increasing their own prices without disturbing others. Is it possible that they have to stop Tengda from sending money?
Change the price quickly.
Therefore, all the GPL quotas were 20 million, and only Shenhua Real Estate on No. 4 offered 21 million.
Mr. Li on the side reacted instantly, raised his hand and said: "I will also increase it to 21 million."
Lin Chang couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
Okay, you understood what I meant so quickly!
Li Shi smiled slightly.
How could Lin Chang take advantage of such a good thing?
A pure GPL quota can be raised to 20 million, but the GoG branch with a GPL quota can only be sold for 15 million. A very important reason is that everyone trusts Mr. Pei and wants to show goodwill to Mr. Pei.
So here comes the question, if everyone has the same 20 million, who can Mr. Pei remember?
Lin Chang took the initiative to add an extra 1 million, which was to stand out among all the companies that bought GPL quotas.
When it comes to hot search reports, the "king" of GPL quotas will also have to bear the name of Shenhua Real Estate.
In other words, adding 1 million will not only increase the presence of Mr. Pei, but also grab the title of "number one".
Isn’t this very profitable?
Mr. Li obviously figured this out instantly, so he also added 1 million.
As for why he didn't add 2 million, it was because the funds he could use were limited, and 21 million was already the limit. What's more, he knew very well that he would never be able to grab Shenhua Real Estate.
In this case, adding 1 million to express it is enough.
With Lin Chang taking the lead, Li Shi followed closely, and soon some people increased their prices, some by 1 million, and some by 500,000, and they all increased the prices themselves!
Because those companies without money have already been eliminated, and the companies that still have money are increasing their prices on their original basis.
Some companies want to add more, but they really can't afford it, so they can only add a minimum of 500,000 to show their appreciation.
Lin Chang raised his hand again: "22 million!"
My attitude is very clear, I have decided on this bid.
Xue Zhebin thought about it for a long time, then gritted his teeth and added 1.5 million.
Yao Bo of Jinding Group also added 500,000 after thinking for a long time.
Compared with the original 20 million, 500,000 or 1 million is just a small amount.
But the key is that this very small value will affect everyone's order in the ranking.
If you add 500,000 or 1 million, you can move up three or four places from the bottom. This is a great deal!
On the one hand, this can reflect the family's strong financial resources and attract attention among the people who eat melons. On the other hand, it can also be regarded as showing Mr. Pei an attitude of "I really spent all my money to support you."
You’ve already paid 20 million, do you still care about these 500,000 or 1 million?
Of course, there are also some companies that really have no money, or feel that they are at the bottom of the rankings. Anyway, the GPL quota has been purchased, and the ranking is not important anymore, so these companies will automatically give up.
But the two or three richest companies still added 500,000 to 1 million, until the highest price stopped at 26 million, and finally stopped!
As Lin Chang finally quoted 26 million, the scene finally became quiet and no one followed.
The bids of each buyer were originally the same price of 20 million, but when Lin Chang mixed it up, they instantly became inconsistent.
It decreases sequentially from 26 million to 20 million, and there may only be a gap of 500,000 or 1 million between them.
It seems that the difference is not big, but in fact this ranking is the most real ranking.
The vast majority of buyers have already broken through their psychological bottom line, and they really can't squeeze out another 500,000 yuan.
But no matter what, impulse or value for money, the bidding is over and everyone is tied to the same boat.
If GPL can be run successfully, then everyone can make money together;
If GPL fails, then everyone will suffer together.
Although the bidding has ended, the preparations for the GPL league have just begun. How successful this league will be and whether these buyers can earn back the money they invested will depend on subsequent performance.
In any case, this stage is settled!
Pei Qian looked at the numbers on the projection screen, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
The three GoG branches sold an average of about 15 million, and the highest sales of these GPL quotas were 26 million, and the lowest was 20 million.
Adding them all together, the number is 180 million. Only counting the GPL quota, it also reaches 136 million.
This is like a sudden windfall!
Originally, Pei Qian felt that it would be more optimistic to sell all the places together for about 70 million; the bottom line was that the price would be between 90 million and 100 million.
But now, it has sold nearly 40 million more than Pei Qian expected in the worst case!
