It's already early winter in December, and the temperature in the sea has dropped. In this cold season, of course, you choose to play hot pot for supper.

"Come on, everyone have a toast, we didn't celebrate when we made history before and reached the semi-finals, now we make up for it!" In the hot pot restaurant, Jin Tao picked up the cup and looked at his teammates, and said with a smile.

"Okay,!" Everyone responded, picked up the cup and touched him, and the monkey raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp.

The monkey drank a little too much, and his face began to turn a little red, but he was still relatively conscious. He poured Tang Ning a glass of wine first, then picked up his own cup and toasted Tang Ning:

"Brother Tang, thank you. Although our days as partners have not been long, I have learned a lot from you. The monkey said sincerely.

Don't look at the monkey's usual hippie smile, in fact, he thinks more than anyone else. He knew very well that with Downing's strength, it was impossible for him to stay on this team forever, and today's game was likely to be their last time together.

Tang Ning also drank it all, the five of them were eating, drinking, laughing, making trouble, all the unhappy things were left behind by them, and at the moment they just wanted to enjoy this joy to the fullest.

After eating and drinking enough, the slightly drunk Tang Ning took a taxi home, and after returning to his room, he fell directly on the bed and fell asleep.

Downing was asleep on his side, and many of the team's managers were already busy.

They have paid attention to the German Cup matches, and the performances of Tang Ning and Jin Tao have moved many teams. Especially Tang Ning, although he is a little older, he can serve as an assistant, AD, even if his state declines, he can still be an assistant coach or even a coach, and such a compound talent is unprecedented.

An amateur team like QS generally does not sign any contracts with players, and even if they do, there are basically no liquidated damages. As long as they can impress Downing, they can recruit him to their team.

The circle of League of Legends is very small, and Downing used to be a well-known coach, and his mobile phone number is shared by many insiders. The next day, Tang Ning woke up and looked at his mobile phone, and there were dozens of unread messages in the text message box, all of which were invitations from various team managers or coaches.

"There are so many teams interested in me!" Tang Ning was a little surprised, he was still unpopular more than half a month ago, and others immediately rejected him when they heard his age. Unexpectedly, a German Cup match allowed him to prove his strength to everyone.

Tang Ning carefully skimmed through them one by one, and the content of each message was similar, all hoping to have a meeting with him.

There were so many teams that invited him to meet, and Tang Ning didn't know how to do the trick, so he could only pick out the teams he thought were more suitable for him, and then meet them one by one.

The LSPL team was first excluded by Downing, and it was not that the LPL team was interested in him, so he couldn't start from the LSP again.

“VG，RNG，OMG，JDG，SS。 Okay, let's meet with the managers and coaches of these five teams. After some selection, Downing decided to talk to them first.

Originally, there was another LPL team that sent an invitation to Downing, and that was his old club NB team. It's just that Tangning doesn't want to go back, he feels that if he goes back to NB, it will always feel strange that his former players have become teammates with him all of a sudden.

Tang Ning first politely declined the kind invitations of the other teams, and then he did not rush to make an appointment with these five teams to meet at a time, but first returned to the Crescent Internet Cafe, explained the situation to the boss of QS, Fat Brother, and said goodbye to his teammates.

The fat brother did not embarrass Tang Ning, but was sincerely happy that he could receive the invitation of the LPL team, and he sincerely wished Tang Ning a smooth road in the future.

"Brother Tang, have you figured out which team to go to?" The other team members asked, they weren't surprised by Downing's departure. The dragon was destined to soar in the sky, and even if it fell into the pool, it would only be temporary, and now he was about to take off again.

"Not yet, I have made appointments with several LPL teams, and the final choice should be decided after meeting with them."

"It's great that I've only received invitations from two LSP teams." Jin Tao said enviously that he also came to say goodbye to his teammates today, and if there is no accident, he will join the SAT team of lspl and serve as the starting midlaner in the new season.

"Captain, Brother Tang, you all have to come on!" Xiao Gao and the three of them have limited strength, and they are not favored by other teams, so they can only continue to stay in QS to hone themselves.

The five of them chatted for a while, and Tang Ning and Jin Tao took their leave. Jin Tao is going to the SAT base to sign a contract, and Tang Ning is also going to start meeting with the team.

In the following week, Tang Ning met with the managers or coaches of these five teams to discuss the treatment of the problem.

The treatment of League of Legends pros is composed of two aspects: one is the salary, and the other is the status of the team. The salaries offered by these five teams to Downing are all similar, and VG is slightly higher.

In terms of the status of the team, because OMG's Sima Lao Thief had a stalemate with the team management at the end of the s7 season, and it is ironclad that he will not renew his contract, OMG is very eager to get Downing, and promises that as long as he joins, he will be the starting AD of OMG next season, and no other team can guarantee that Downing will become the starter.

Originally, Tang Ning had planned to agree to OMG's invitation and join OMG to replace Sima Lao Thief. But VG didn't know where to hear the news, so they went straight to the door and invited Downing to join their team again.

This time, it was not only Lu Jun, the manager of the VG League of Legends branch, but even Chen Qing, the boss of VG, who came forward, which made Tang Ning very moved. From the afternoon to the evening, Chen Qing kept emphasizing that the team should return to the domestic first-line level, repeatedly invited Tang Ning to join, and offered a salary twice as high as before.

"Downing, we are also thinking about the results, so we don't give you the promise of a starting position. As long as you can keep up your good form, I'm sure the coach will let you play. Lu Jun saw that Tang Ning was still thinking about it, and he persuaded bitterly.

Tang Ning thought about it and felt that what Lu Jun said was not unreasonable, and when he was a coach, he never guaranteed which player would start. And VG is really very sincere, and in the end Downing made his decision to join the VG team!

VG is also a traditional e-sports club, they have dota, League of Legends, Overwatch and other branches, each of which has a lot of investment.

After the end of the s4 season, Samsung disintegrated, and VG spent a lot of money to poach Dandy and mata, but due to the disagreement between mata and death, VG did not achieve much success.

At the end of the s5 season, VG poached the champion mid-laner Hou Ye, who once pressed faker on the bench, from SKT, and asked him and Dandy to form a midfield training combination. But because Ad Andres, who replaced the death announcement, was too good, VG stopped in the playoffs.

After another year of failure, Dandy left in disgrace. VG continued to invest heavily, and this time they brought SKT champion Wild Chicken to join. Let him work with Hou Ye to lead VG forward. However, Stupid Chicken did not adapt to the rhythm of LPL, not only failed to lead VG with Hou Ye to progress, but the team was also relegated after the S7 spring game.

Stupid Chicken chose to retire after only one season, and VG found a new Korean aid jungler crash, and drove away the two sinkhole ADs in the lower lane: Andres and Xuanxuanpi, in exchange for Martin, who was previously on the Snakes.

Although Ding Huang is often criticized, compared with those two rookies, Ding Huang is still much more powerful. With the efforts of everyone, VG successfully won the lspl championship in the summer tournament and returned to the lpl.

Just returning to the LPL is far from enough for a team with such a foundation as VG. They want better results, and Ding Huang didn't perform well in the LPL before. So they invited Downing in the hope that he could bring progress to the team!
