Chapter 102: Money Game
Li Dan saw that the three major teams had already agreed to this proposal, and sat down dejectedly like a deflated ball.
The prince certainly looks hateful, but he can't afford to offend the boss of the three major teams.
"What if I can't pay 30 million?" Rong Yao finally spoke.
Everyone knows that among these teams, the Glory Club is the most short of money.
The prince smiled slightly: "If you can't pay 30 million, you will be disqualified from the league, and the vacant place will be open to bidding, and the person with the highest bid will get this seat." Part of the bidding funds will be handed over to the official King Star Shine, and part of it will be distributed as the league's development funds as appropriate - the remaining teams will benefit from it. ”
Rong Yao slowly stood up: "It means that you can't continue to play in the league without money?" ”
The crown prince looked at Rong Yao coldly, his eyes piercing his heart like a sharp sword: "People who don't have strength should be out." For so many years, the alliance has tolerated the existence of those undead clans, which is already very benevolent. ”
Rong Yao smiled miserably, glanced at everyone and said, "Many people here have been in this league since the beginning of the league, right?" I would like to ask you a question: what was the purpose of joining the league in the first place? ”
Everyone was silent, and no one took the initiative to speak.
Rong Yao continued: "When we first started playing in the league, esports was still an unpopular industry, not many people paid attention to it, and it didn't make money at all. At that time, we only had a simple idea in our hearts, just to win the championship, for the dream, for the glory!
In recent years, the e-sports industry has developed rapidly, with more and more players, and the state has begun to vigorously support it, and some richer people have also joined in. I'm glad to see that esports has the status it has today.
Although the conditions are much better now, I always feel that something is missing.
In the past, when we played games, the players and the boss took the bus and crowded the subway, but now many clubs have special buses and modern training bases. Going out to play is also staying in a star hotel.
However, the league has also changed its flavor.
The club invited foreign aid from South Korea for the sake of the results. The contestants retired at the golden age in order to make money, did live broadcasts, and sold meat muffins. Many people earn millions or tens of millions a year, and they drive luxury cars and live in luxury houses at a young age.
It seems that everyone can profit from esports,
But do you remember why we joined the industry in the first place? ”
Rong Yao's gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and everyone avoided his gaze one after another.
Qin Fei coughed dryly and said: "Mr. Rong, don't think too much about this matter, the official collection of this money is just to optimize the league environment and improve everyone's competitive level." ”
Glory said coldly: "Does the league environment and competition level have anything to do with money? I don't think so! The income of Chinese football has risen in recent years, and the foreign aid attracted has become more and more big, why are the results getting worse and worse? The Chinese women's volleyball team has a poor competition environment and low income, why can it win the world championship? ”
Qin Fei opened his mouth and did not speak.
This example is truly speechless.
Rong Yao continued: "I know that in business, everyone links competition to money, which is understandable, but if the league becomes a simple money game, then where is the competitive spirit? ”
There was a sudden silence in the conference room.
After a while, the prince lightly applauded twice and said: "Mr. Rong Yao's speech is deafening and deafening, and it really makes people think deeply, but it is respectable to talk about ideals, but there is a saying: What ideals are not worth talking about?
Don't talk too far on the topic, the league guarantee of 30 million is not a unilateral idea of our alliance, this is also the official opinion of King Xingyao. ”
At this time, Wang Sicong suddenly said: "When did the alliance become 'your'?" Is collecting money the official opinion of King Xingyao, or is it Jin Bo's opinion? Or is it your opinion, prince? ”
Qin Fei smiled: "The prince is just the proposer, and it is Mr. Jin who makes the decision, and Jin is always the official person in charge of King Xingyao China, and his ideas represent the official ideas." ”
Wang Sicong said aggressively: "Since it was Jin Bo's idea, why did he only consult with you and not ask our opinions?" ”
Qin Fei spread his hands and said, "Isn't this calling everyone together to talk today!" ”
Wang Sicong sneered: "Now this proposal has become Jin Bo's idea? He said he wanted 30 million, should we give 30 million? ”
Qin Fei was stunned: "All King Star Glory competitions must be officially authorized, as the organizer of the event, they enjoy absolute power, and we can only obey ...... in this matter."
Wang Sicong interrupted him and said, "I still say that, does he want us to give it?" There are twelve team owners here, and if we don't all agree to pay the money, will he kick us all out of the league? ”
Wang Sicong looked at Qin Fei with interest, Qin Fei looked embarrassed, and he was so choked that he couldn't speak.
Things turned out somewhat unexpectedly.
originally thought that the three major teams agreed to this proposal, but the situation was already one-sided, and it seemed that there was no suspense about the passage of this bill - after all, the people present were all wealthy, and it was not particularly difficult to pay 30 million. Even if there is opposition, it is only one or two small clubs, and it does not pose a threat.
However, Wang Sicong suddenly stood up and clearly opposed this bill, and the situation changed subtly.
The bosses who had been wavering began to hesitate again.
The prince said coldly: "Mr. Wang means that you don't plan to hand it over?" Do you want to openly confront the official King Star Shine? Aren't you afraid of being disqualified from the league? ”
Wang Sicong said nonchalantly: "I don't think Jin Bo has the guts to cancel all of our league seats. Unless he wants to be the enemy of the entire alliance and challenge the authority of the alliance, then we will give him some color! ”
The prince said, "We all know that your family has a big business and doesn't care about this loss, but is this fair to other teams?" ”
Wang Sicong snorted coldly: "It's not up to you to decide whether it's fair or not. Our alliance stresses democracy, the minority obeys the majority, and it is not that whoever has the money and power can cover the sky with one hand. ”
Qin Fei slapped the table and said, "Okay, since Mr. Wang said so, then we will vote immediately now, as long as more than half of the votes are in favor, this bill will pass!" ”
Pan Jie, who had been silent, suddenly interjected and said: "Mr. Qin, Mr. Wang, don't be so impulsive first, I think the matter of voting can be postponed for a while, the league schedule is still a month to decide, there is plenty of time, let's let everyone think about it for a few days before making a decision." ”
Wang Sicong smiled: "Slow down? I think you want to take the opportunity to get a PR, right? Combining soft and hard, coercion and temptation, and using some indiscriminate means, some people are best at this kind of thing. ”
Although he said this to Pan Jie, Wang Sicong's eyes stared straight at the prince.
No matter how good the prince's cultivation is, he couldn't help it, and said angrily: "Wang Sicong, what do you mean? ”
Wang Sicong smiled: "It's not interesting, it's just that some people don't like it, and they fart all day long!" said that it was for the sake of the alliance, but in fact, it was his own private goods! ”
"You!" The prince was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Wang Sicong's vulgar words provoked several bosses next to him to laugh.
Seeing that this serious meeting was stirred up by Wang Sicong and became a bit of a mess, Qin Fei frowned and said, "Okay, don't make any noise!" According to Mr. Pan's opinion, the bill will be voted on in two days, and everyone will think about it in the past two days, and the day after tomorrow, it will be this time and this conference room. Meeting! ”
After hearing Qin Fei's announcement of the dismissal, everyone walked out of the conference room one after another, several bosses stood together in the corridor and whispered, Wang Sicong swaggered past them and walked towards the elevator alone.
"Mr. Wang!" Pei Ke, who was waiting for the elevator, greeted Wang Sicong politely.
Wang Sicong nodded and did not answer.
At this time, the elevator happened to come, and the two walked in one after the other.
"Mr. Wang seems to be very angry today, Huang Tai's face is blackened by you." Pei Ke said with a smile.
Wang Sicong snorted coldly: "Huang Tai is a villain, you can't get used to him when dealing with this kind of person, he will block him as soon as he farts, just to make him uncomfortable!" ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Pei Ke and said unceremoniously: "Xiao Pei, I used to respect you a lot, I think you never went along with those people, you are a decent person, why do you wear a pair of pants with them today?" ”
Pei Ke smiled faintly: "I'm just talking about things, and I think this proposal itself is understandable." It's just that it did trap Rong Yao and Li Dan - in fact, if the alliance can give a good compensation plan, it will be a relief for them - as far as I know, the Glory Club is already on the verge of bankruptcy. ”
Wang Sicong was silent.
Pei Ke paused for a moment and continued: "Mr. Wang, I think instead of needless confrontation with them, it is better to find a way to get more compensation for them. ”
At this time, the elevator reached the first floor, and Wang Sicong walked out without saying a word.
Pei Ke also followed, and said as he walked: "Actually, everyone knows in their hearts that the prince is obviously targeting the Glory Club this time, and he has united Qin Fei and Empress Dowager Pan, especially with the support of Jin Bo. For this proposal, they are bound to win. ”
Wang Sicong nodded: "I have long seen that the prince, Qin Fei, and Jin Bo have been sneaky some time ago, and I know that they have a problem." ”
Pei Ke hesitated and said: "Actually, Mr. Wang is not short of these 30 million, why bother to grudge with the prince and Qin Fei." What's more, they also have the support of Jin Bo behind them. ”
Wang Sicong sighed and said, "Do you think I'm fighting with them for myself? I want to keep them. ”
Pei Ke was stunned: "Bao Rongyao? Why? ”
Wang Sicong stopped, looked at Pei Ke and said, "Because the e-sports industry needs this kind of person, and it needs a pure person like Rongyao." Rong Yao is the one who really has the dream of e-sports. ”
