Chapter 555: Meet an Acquaintance!

The procedure on the wine table is nothing more than toasting, drinking, and then eating, Lin Zhimin and Xu Tao, as the biggest leaders, naturally sit firmly on the Diaoyutai, and they don't need to do the toasting, because no one on the scene is qualified to let them toast.

Then from time to time, the employees at the next table would come over to toast, including the finance office and a few little girls in charge of publicity.

Although they are all young people in their twenties, they are all people who have been learning social routines since they were in college, and they know very well that if they want to mix well in the workplace, in fact, IQ is secondary, and emotional intelligence is the most important.

In the company, no matter how well you do your job, but once the boss doesn't like you, there is no time to be promoted, and even this job is a blink of an eye between the leader and the boss.

Although the promotion space of the e-sports club is very limited, it can't stand up to HPG's welfare package, for example, the same job, Qin Yunyan, as the leader of HPG, has a salary 50% higher than that of other clubs in the industry, and there are also high bonuses and benefits.

Sometimes after a season, he just gets bonuses that are several times his salary, otherwise how could Xu Tao still feel a little powerless when he burns money vigorously.

Of course, sometimes a big investment is naturally a big gain, under Xu Tao's large investment, all the employees of the club are invested with 15% energy, resulting in all departments are doing things seriously, and there is no phenomenon of mixing and waiting for death.

Then other departments work together to serve the players, resulting in a good atmosphere in the team and good training for the players, which is directly transformed into the professional arena.

Therefore, HPG was able to win the championship directly from LSPL and then join the LPL in just one season, and there are undoubtedly many reasons for this result, but Xu Taoken is definitely the first to burn money.

Therefore, as the e-sports circle began to slowly grasp the popularity of the public, many capitalists and second-generation people began to slowly discover how a wealthy club with achievements was made? It seems that it is still inseparable from money.

As a result, the current LSPL and LPL have begun to have a large number of acquisitions, and in the case of a new season without a club being determined, a club may disappear every night, and then a new club will appear.

The new clubs have successfully replaced the previous club's quota and played in the professional league, so this is why the LPL has not determined the final club list in less than a week before the start of the season, because the capital in it is too chaotic.

And the LPL Organizing Committee has to turn a blind eye to this, although on the one hand, the rules are very important, but on the other hand, the influx of capital is more important to them.

Because the league can't escape the word money, there is no league without money, and the previous leagues were all advanced by Riot to hold the league, and the first two years were all out of a state of loss.

Finally, with the emergence of a large amount of capital this year, some new giants began to appear, and these clubs even began to spend huge sums of money to attract star players in foreign leagues in addition to the domestic transfer market.

In this way, the excitement of the competition has increased, and the attention has expanded and gone international, so they can naturally start talking about some sponsorship, otherwise you will change to your own own fight.

Except for some small domestic manufacturers, those international brands who want to play with you would rather spend a lot of money to invest in a traditional sport that is not in the spotlight than invest in your emerging sport with symbols.

At the table, Lin Zhimin and Xu Tao also talked a lot about his own ideas, which was highly approved by him, and he also helped Lin Zhimin analyze his decisions from a business point of view.

As for burning money, is there anyone who does e-sports that doesn't burn money?

But just when everyone was drinking happily, suddenly there was a commotion from downstairs, which immediately attracted a few waiters to go down.

The originally harmonious atmosphere downstairs was suddenly disturbed, many people began to whisper, and the expression on Xu Tao's face also changed, no matter where he went to eat, he was one of the most respected guests in other people's homes, and he had never encountered such a situation.

At this time, the restaurant manager hurriedly walked up, nodded in front of Xu Tao and said, "I'm sorry Mr. Xu, there are more than a dozen foreigners outside who want to eat, but I said that they didn't believe it when I chartered the venue today, and then they were making trouble below." ”

"Foreigners are still messing around in our Chinese restaurant? What do your security guards do? They can disrupt the normal operation of your restaurant, and it will not work in terms of diplomatic law, what are you afraid of? Xu Tao said with a cold face.

"I think so too, but when our security guard just wanted to do something, a few passers-by came next to us and said that we bullied foreigners with mobile phones and wanted to take pictures, I was afraid that they would spread it to the Internet, you also know that people on the Internet are devils now, a little misinterpretation, we may not know what kind of restaurant it is!"

Lin Zhimin saw that the manager was about to cry, so he nodded to Xu Tao, and then said, "Why don't I go down and see, what kind of foreigner is it, so unreasonable!" ”

Xu Tao also stood up: "I'll also go and see, who dares to disturb my Yaxing!" I don't want to mess around in Shanghai, do you? ”

Seeing that the two bosses got up, the others couldn't sit still and all of them wanted to go down, but Lin Zhimin pressed them on the table and only took Wang Yan and Xu Tao's little assistants down.

Both of them are proficient in English and several other foreign languages, and can act as interpreters when they can't communicate, so there is no need for others to bring them with them.

In this way, he took the manager and his group of five people down to the first floor, and as soon as he walked down the pavilion, he found two groups of people facing each other at the door of the restaurant.

While trying to enter and not letting in, speaking English and Chinese is not lively, and it is naturally the lobby manager of the restaurant and the security guard and waiter behind him who are not allowed to enter.

And these people who were excited to come in, Lin Zhimin took a closer look, and it turned out to be really acquaintances! .

Lin Zhimin suddenly said to Xu Tao: "You say this world is not small? It's them!"

Xu Tao also smiled: "It's really small, I'll go." ”

In the mouths of the two, they turned out to be the LEC European All-Star team that was fattened by the LPL All-Stars just a few hours ago, and Lin Zhimin never expected that it was them who made trouble in their chartered restaurant.
