Abu came to China for the first time, and Shen Lang, as the host, accompanied Abu to have a good look.

Shen Lang could see that Abu was in a bad mood, and Abu didn't hide it: "Shen, my Israeli nationality has been processed, but it's a pity that those British bastards still refuse to let me enter the country, it's really damned." ”

Shen Lang was also a little surprised: "Is the investigation so strict?"

Abu smiled bitterly: "After all, I am the richest man in Russia, and those-eating politicians in Britain are determined to ban me from entering the country, but fortunately I sold that villa to you in advance, otherwise I would have lost a lot." ”

Shen Lang could only comfort: "It's okay, the United States is not bad, I heard that you have purchased several properties on the Upper East Side of New York." ”

Abu nodded: "It's been before, and recently I've shifted the focus of my business to the United States and France, which is damn politics." ”

A cold war between major powers cannot be avoided even by a rich man like Abu.

Fortunately, it is only between Britain and Russia, and other countries do not restrict Abu's entry and exit.

Shen Lang doesn't have that interest in getting involved in politics, if he doesn't do it well, he will be crushed, and it is enough to earn his own money with peace of mind and enjoy life.

Abu also apparently realized that he had said too much, and said apologetically, "I shouldn't have said this." ”

"It's okay, by the way, are you going to get an esports club to play?"

Shen Lang suggested with a smile.

Abu's strength is so strong, if he enters e-sports, it will definitely attract a lot of attention.

Abu sipped the red wine and smiled, "Is it the PUBG event?"

"Yes, the first edition is almost over, and the winner is expected to be officially decided in mid-December. ”

Shen Lang was not too deliberate, with a casual attitude.

Abu pondered for a moment and said, "I have listened to my think tank analyze e-sports events, and I am also very interested in this sunrise industry, so help me reserve a seat in the event." ”

Shen Lang smiled and raised his glass to Abu: "As my friend, I give you the privilege, you only need to pay 25 million US dollars according to the standard of the first season." ”

Abu smiled and didn't refuse, they are both smart people, and of course they know the advantages of helping each other.

Since Abu has decided to enter the e-sports market, he will definitely not be obscure, and the value of e-sports players is not even a fraction of those football stars.

Shen Lang also briefly introduced the changes in the PUBG Global Championship next season, first of all, the number of teams will definitely increase.

Soderlaide directly proposed that the team be divided into forty-eight teams, and the global division would be divided into North America, Asia, and Europe.

There are sixteen clubs in each of the three regions, and the top eight teams from each region advance to the final World Finals.

In addition, Soldlaide intends to heavily support the PUBG sub-division, which is attached to the three regions.

The minor league clubs have a $10 million slot, and their main role is to provide excellent players for the top league.

The minor leagues also have prize pools, which are not as big as the $100 million in the top leagues, but they are as much as $30 million.

Add to that the sponsorship and broadcast fees, and each club is sure to earn.

The secondary competitions are basically affiliated with the affiliated teams of the clubs in the top competitions.

You can usually rent the stadium of the top competition club to play the game, and you can also earn ticket revenue, but you need to pay an additional venue rental fee.

Abu listened attentively, his eyes flashing with interest.

"Shen, I listened to your description, this is somewhat similar to the development model of the NBA, the role of these minor leagues is to provide potential players for the top league, right?"

"That's right. ”

Shen Lang smiled and nodded.

Soudelaide just flipped the NBA model a little bit and applied it to PUBG.

Even Soderlaide plans to launch a draft model after a while, help players increase endorsements, etc.

The esports market is still a blank slate, and Soderlaide's attempts, whether they succeed or fail, will go down in esports history.

Shen Lang fully supports Soldlaide, and the global sales of PUBG have made Shen Lang wake up with a smile in his dreams.

The wonderful broadcast of the event has contributed to the continued popularity of PUBG, and even the sponsorship fee for next season's PUBG Championship is still increasing.

No one will ignore the global market of more than 300 million young people.

As a top billionaire, how can Abu not see the potential of esports in the future?

Abu laughed: "I'm going to invest in a club in France, even if it's Europe." ”

"That's fine, but it's better for players to use city locals to increase the sense of identity of local players with the club. ”

Shen Lang suggested.

Abu nodded thoughtfully, "I'll think about it seriously." ”

You can't expect European players to support Asian players brought in by American bosses, and that's one of the biggest taboos in esports investing.

The establishment of an e-sports club naturally cannot be blind, and it doesn't matter whether the owner is a local rich man or not, but the players must be selected from the local players.

Even if Shen Lang slightly reduces the cost of admission qualifications, this point must be emphasized.

Making the event bigger is the common goal of Shen Lang and Soldlaide.

Shen Lang took Abu to New York to watch an e-sports match with his own eyes, and the city of glory of 12,000 people was full.

Abudu couldn't help but admire: "I now believe that the e-sports market really has potential!"

Hearing is better than seeing, Abu looked at the enthusiastic and excited audience, generally in their twenties and thirties, and nodded secretly.

Now that it's the playoffs, every game is extraordinarily intense, and the rewards for eating chicken in the playoffs have escalated again.

There are three rounds of competition per day during the regular season, and the team can receive a prize of $100,000 for each round.

Wait until the playoffs and the prize money will be doubled!

At the end of each game, the staff will immediately put the prize money in front of the chicken eating team.

It also stimulates the other teams to have red eyes and do everything they can to achieve the final victory.

In the regular season, each player can get $10,000 in addition to the club's share.

The playoffs directly turned into a chicken meal, $20,000 per person.

This also made the PUBG playoffs more exciting, and the young esports fans on the scene never stopped cheering enthusiastically.

Abu has completely strengthened his investment beliefs, and the esports club is not without fame and fortune, just like Abu once ran Chelsea.

There are many old acquaintances on the sidelines, and Michael Jordan was also introduced by Shen Lang to chat with Abu.

Principal Wang came to the scene today, and the IG club was also very powerful to eat two handfuls of chicken in a row, but unfortunately the third was defeated by other teams that were red together.

Principal Wang was already very satisfied, just eating two handfuls of chicken, the club won the official $400,000 reward from Epic for one game.

With $400,000 in front of the club's players, the visual impact is undeniable.

Each game is exciting, and all kinds of wonderful operations make all fans addicted.

Principal Wang generously said that the bonus club would not deduct any points, and the four players would each receive 100,000 US dollars.

Since the popularity of the PUBG Championship, playing games is no longer looked down upon.

Many people even cut their heads, hoping to hone their chicken eating skills so that they can join the e-sports club.

PUBG has formed an influence, has a great reputation all over the world, and the ability of esports players to make money is no worse than that of ordinary starlets.

The PUBG Championship has unconsciously become the most wanted competition for all esports players.
