The LPL league system announced by Huya Technology Company, the operating department of League of Legends, coupled with the collection of participation deposits for each club, has also caused a sensation in the gaming circle again.

No one could have imagined that if they wanted to build a game team, they would have to pay money to the game company?

This subverts the notions of many insiders.

In the past, if a game club was willing to have a professional team to support you, then the game company would be grateful.

How can you still be charged?

As a result, there were immediately established clubs that jumped out to protest against this move by Huya Technology.

"Huya is not poor and crazy! I did the club itself by losing money, and now I have to pay money to their company?

This is the boss of the WOA team, known as "Cai Gongzi" in the circle, a well-known rich second generation in a certain place.

He started this team because he liked to play the game of League of Legends, and he was not short of money, so he gathered a group of professional masters and made a team.

I want to take advantage of the super high prize money of this S3 competition to see if there is a chance to hit the championship.

If you can win the championship, it will be beautiful, not only can you recover all the initial investment, but you can also make a lot of money, and you can also get a lot of fame.

It doesn't matter if you can't get it, it's not expensive to raise a professional team these days, the salary of the players is very low, and the monthly salary of those players in his team is only four or five thousand.

The training venue is to rent a residential building, install a few computers, pull the Internet cable, and hire a team leader and a cooking aunt.

That's what a professional club is like now.

In a year, the investment of such a professional team is only one million.

For many rich second generations, it's nothing at all.

……

Cai Gongzi's speech also represents the views of many people in the game circle.

Not many people can understand why they have to pay a deposit to the game company to be a professional team, in their opinion, it is not profitable to run a club itself, it is a matter of pure investment!

What does Huya Technology mean now?

Is it to see that League of Legends is going to be popular, and then to harvest another wave?

However, in addition to those who strongly oppose it like Cai Gongzi, there are also a few people who understand and support it.

President Wang is a representative of the support faction, and he has publicly spoken on his Weibo, expressing his support for the League of Legends professional league to be leagued and collect deposits.

"At present, there is a lot of discussion in the circle about the margin incident, and I will also share my opinion. First of all, I agree with Huya Technology's approach, and their move is to express their determination to make the League of Legends professional league bigger and stronger. If an esports league wants to develop healthily and in the long term, it will definitely not be able to do it without sufficient financial investment.

This kind of capital investment is not only for game companies, but also for club investors.

Now Huya Technology has raised the entry threshold of LPL and screened out powerful club investors, so as to ensure that the participating teams of LPL have sufficient financial support.

To put it bluntly, Huya Technology is telling everyone that if you play tickets and are not strong enough, don't come to play!

Because, what LPL will build is a high-quality e-sports league.

I'm here to make a statement, no matter how much money is charged, we IG will definitely participate!"

President Wang's Weibo, compared with Cai Gongzi's speech, is immediately superior.

They are all rich second generations, but some people are still relatively level, and they can see problems more thoroughly.

Of course, some of the sixteen teams shortlisted this time are not professional, and there are no investors behind them, but some game masters have formed teams to do it themselves.

It's also unrealistic to ask them to pay a deposit.

However, regarding this, Huya Technology has also been prepared.

Now the owners of these teams can choose to pay a deposit to participate in next year's LPL League, or they can choose to transfer their qualifications, that is, sell their teams to investors who want to participate in the LPL but are not qualified.

Wang Ye's Preferred Premium Company has set an example by announcing the acquisition of a team with LPL qualifications and the formation of a team to compete in next year's LPL League.

This is another big news, because this is the first League of Legends professional club to be invested by a major company!

The reason why the best company came forward is also because this company is the most suitable.

High-end brands like THE TOP SHOP and Floating Dreams are naturally not related to esports and games.

But the best product is different, this brand belongs to the mass brand, and there are a large number of young people among consumers, and many of these young people like to play games and League of Legends.

Now Youpin has formed its own professional team and club, which is equivalent to making an advertisement.

In the future, they will be able to launch their own club peripherals and sell them directly in the store.

So, this company is a good fit for an esports club.

The team acquired by Preferred Premium is an amateur team, and there are no investors behind it.

When the five members of this team received an offer of 3 million yuan from Preferred Premium Company, they were all stunned......

"What do you mean? Our team is so valuable? Youyoupin is the company that sells clothes, right? They want to invest in our team to build a club? Why do you offer us such a high price......

These five team members are all amateur top players, they just want to impact the S3 World Finals, it is impossible to win the championship, and they are also self-aware.

However, even if you can get in, you can get a lot of bonuses, even if you are eliminated in the group stage, there is a guaranteed bonus of 100,000 US dollars......

They performed well in this selection tournament, and they did finish fourth, just enough to make it to the S3 World Finals.

……

Huya Technology doesn't talk about it, but Wang Ye also has a move.

He found Zhao Hongsheng and talked about e-sports.

"What? You want to add a new label to Pengcheng?, the capital of e-sports?!" Zhao Hongsheng looked at Wang Ye in surprise.

This is what Wang Ye came to talk to him about, Wang Ye plans to create a good e-sports atmosphere in Pengcheng, so that a number of professional e-sports clubs can settle here.

It is even possible to plan an e-sports park and take the lead in raising the slogan of supporting e-sports in China.

Where does Zhao Hongsheng know about e-sports, but he is very interested in this kind of "No. 1 in the country" and "so-and-so capital".

So, after pulling Wang Ye to ask questions and figuring out what e-sports is, Zhao Hongsheng was thoughtful.

I have to say that Wang Ye's proposal has a good foundation in Pengcheng.

Pengcheng can be said to be a city with many Internet companies in China, and it also has Tencent, an Internet social giant, and many technology companies.

E-sports, which has now been officially recognized by the state, and even in the Asian Games, there are calls for the inclusion of e-sports in official competitions, although it has not yet been realized, but at least it shows that there is a sign of it......

In foreign countries, e-sports is an emerging industry recognized by the public.

City......

You can really consider adding a new label to yourself!

"To be the capital of e-sports, there must be enough esports clubs here, otherwise it will become a joke. ”

Zhao Hongsheng raised a practical question.

According to Wang Ye's description, there is no decent e-sports club in Pengcheng now, that is, the company has just announced that it will establish a League of Legends professional club.

However, a club can't afford to be called the capital of esports!

"Leave this matter to me, in fact, many companies are suitable for e-sports clubs, and a little advertising budget is enough, but the publicity effect is definitely much better than traditional TV media advertising. ”

Wang Ye said with a smile.

"Yes! As long as we have enough clubs in Pengcheng, the city government can express its support!"

Zhao Hongsheng also promised.

He is not the kind of conservative feudal person, the influence of e-sports among young people is getting bigger and bigger, and Pengcheng is a young city, where the proportion of young people is the largest!

If this is really done to explain the capital of e-sports, wouldn't it be able to increase the attractiveness of Pengcheng to young people?

So, why not do it!

With Zhao Hongsheng's support, Wang Ye's side will be easy to do.

He only needed to convey Zhao Hongsheng's statement to the owners of several companies suitable for e-sports clubs in the Pengcheng Club, and those people immediately said that there was no problem!

Isn't it just spending tens of millions to build a club, what a big deal?

……

Just when the game circle was still arguing about the guarantee of the League of Legends Professional League, Huya Technology once again came forward to announce a major news.

"The League of Legends operations department has received notices from a number of companies announcing that they have acquired qualified teams, formed professional clubs, and are willing to pay deposits. The list is as follows. ”

Among them, Preferred Premium, Tencent, Ping An, China Merchants, and Wanxing Real Estate are impressively listed!

The news has been announced, and everyone in the game circle has been shocked.

What the heck?

Why are all these big companies coming to play games?!

If this news is true, then to be honest, it seems that this LPL league is really going to have a head!

Of course, this news is true, because these companies have posted news on their respective official websites, confirming the authenticity of the matter.

These companies are engaged in this e-sports club, firstly, to cater to the new direction of Pengcheng's "e-sports capital", and secondly, it is indeed suitable for e-sports.

Like Tencent, needless to say, among his users, it is definitely the largest proportion of young people, and an e-sports club can immediately have a large number of fans, this investment will definitely not be lost, maybe it can be earned.
