Chapter 64: The Outside is Coming
The Chinese team won the championship and runner-up, which made the domestic players and sailors rejoice.
Although there are only eight teams participating in the sixth season of the Summit League, they include the champion and runner-up of TI6 and the NO.1 in each major region, which is not insufficient.
After talking to his family, Kyung Joon took his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to SCCC:
"Old Song, I won the championship!"
It didn't take long for the SCCC to reply to the message: "You wait, the fall competition will blow you up in a few days!" ”
Through the screen, Jing Zhun could imagine the appearance of SCCC opening his teeth and claws, and he couldn't help grinning. In fact, during the National Day, a Dota 2 continental event was also held in China - the 2016 MDL International Elite Invitational Tournament.
The organizers of the MDL did not invite serenity to participate in the qualifiers, and directly designated 8 teams from China to compete for the spot, so serenity did not get the opportunity to participate. However, it is worth mentioning that the champions and runners-up of TI6 wings and DC did not participate in MDL, so the "gold content" has always been criticized.
In the end, EG won the championship and NB was the runner-up. SCCC bombarded Jingzhun on WeChat that night, and told Jingzhun about his results over and over again, which made Jingzhun a little envious at that time, and now it can be regarded as a big revenge.
The prize money for the Pinnacle League is not much, and the championship is only $40,000, but the title of champion at the beginning of the season is significant, and on the night of the final between Serenity and Wings, Serenity received good news.
"Dear Serenity Team Principal Mr. Forward, congratulations on your victory at TS6, and we are honored to invite you and your team to The Boston Major from December 7th to December 10th!"
Invited! It's a direct invitation again!
"You've received a direct invitation, haven't you?"
In this overseas competition, Serenity and Wings were basically at the same pace, and they also took the same plane when they returned home. After the two teams met, Iceice squeezed to Kyungjoon's side and whispered.
Jing Zhun nodded, smiled and replied, "Yes, you want revenge?" ”
"Huh!" Iceice laughed dryly when she heard this, and then sarcastically said, "You wait, I heard that the version update is coming soon, and it's time to see if you talk about it!" ”
I don't know how I would feel if someone didn't participate in the Pinnacle League heard this, but as long as they were a team that played against Serenity in this tournament, their players would definitely agree with Iceice's words.
This version can't be played with Serenity, and their tactical ideas of snowballing on the line are unsolvable in this version! If you want to deal with them, you can only wait for the pace of the game to change in the new version, and the role of online advantage is no longer so obvious.
In other words, at least it must be able to effectively reduce the impact of the gap in the middle route! Although Jing Zhuncai has appeared in the professional arena for less than half a year, it seems that he has already had the taste of the world's bitterness for a long time.
"It's time to update ......" Kyung Joon did not refute, but agreed with Iceice's statement. He won't get bored with Dota 2, but this half-year-old version should really change.
……
At noon on October 23, Serenity and Wings arrived in Shanghai together, and the two teams said goodbye and returned to their bases. Wings also needs to be transferred, and Serenity only needs to take an hour by high-speed train.
Luo Tianshen deliberately put aside some trivial matters and greeted the members of Triumph at the base. After seeing the tired people, Luo Tianshen showed a satisfied smile, especially when he saw Jing on time, he smiled a little arbitrarily.
Sea of Heroes, Mending Knife Machine, True Rhythm Demon King, Lane Monster, Mid Single Calculator......
Recalling the various nicknames given to Jing Zhun in the forum, Luo Tianshen grabbed Jing Zhun's hand and gave 10,086 likes to his vision.
I've found a treasure!
"Congratulations, you played so beautifully!" Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the team members' eyes becoming strange, Luo Tianshen straightened his face, handed the folder in his hand to Forward and said, "Forward, come on!" ”
"Oh, okay!"
Luo Tianshen was obviously angry with him before, Forward had no surprised expression, opened the folder and said to everyone: "There are a few things to say, first of all, the key thing, money!" The prize money for the competition is not much, only 40,000 US dollars, and the boss decided to increase the distribution ratio of 85% to 100% this time, and the championship prize will be paid. ”
Due to the time difference, the team members who were a little sleepy also cheered up when they heard this, who doesn't like the matter of sharing money.
"The second thing......" Forward said, pointing to a small two-story villa diagonally opposite the base, and after seeing everyone look at it, he continued, "That villa has been rented, so it's convenient for your family to stay here for a while." ”
After that, Forward paused and reminded: "In principle, it is not recommended to stay for a long time, but if there are special circumstances, you can borrow it in the form of a lease." For example, viagra, the rent is lower than the market price, you don't have to worry about this, but you should pay attention to moderation and not affect the state. ”
"Hahahaha!"
Everyone knew that this was about the girlfriend of the Rhythm Demon King, and when they saw the giraffe, they blushed a little, and their teammates laughed out loud.
Forward also laughed, and after a few people quieted down, he continued: "One last thing, in view of the excellent results of the Summit League, the team has now decided to open up your live broadcast rights, and you can sign a live broadcast contract with the live broadcast platform on the premise of having additional terms for the team." ”
Streaming contracts are also a revenue-generating business without sponsorship, especially for small teams like Serenity. Forward distributed the additional terms prepared in advance to the crowd and waited quietly for a few people to read them.
There are only three additional clauses in total, and Jing Zhun and Super are particularly serious, after all, these two have relatively good study habits.
The first is the live broadcast contract and the team commission of the gift income, which is a point that cannot be bypassed, and the terms are also particularly detailed. The percentage of the commission is not too much, and Kyung Joon doesn't mind it too much, so he looks down.
The second is the regulation of the duration of the live broadcast, and the focus of professional players should still be on daily training and competitions. Serenity's current management is quite formal, except for rest days, training sessions will last until 7 p.m. every day, and there will be a mandatory break at 11 p.m. every night, leaving little time for members to broadcast live.
The terms stipulate that the monthly live broadcast time of the members shall not exceed 80 hours, and in terms of Serenity's arrangement of "doing six days off and one day off", this live broadcast task can be said to be quite easy, and Jing Zhun thinks it is quite reasonable.
Article 3 is mainly aimed at the activities held by the live broadcast platform, and the team members can participate in the platform activities appropriately without affecting their daily training and rest, and the activity income will not be taken by the team, but the team members shall not take the initiative to participate.
Makes sense!
After reading it, Kyung Joon nodded in unison after making eye contact with Super. With a three-pronged approach, it is destined that the players will not be able to sign any big live broadcast contracts, but as extra money, these are almost all for nothing, and it can also generate income for the team while not affecting the training and competition of the players, which is a good thing.
"I'm okay with that, I think these terms are necessary."
Kyung Joon took the lead in expressing his position, and his teammates also nodded. Seeing this, Luo Tianshen motioned Forward to take out another document, and at the same time said to himself: "You champion is very uplifted, and now the big domestic live broadcast platforms are contacting our team, do you want to listen to my advice?" ”
The boss's face naturally had to be given, and the team members nodded sensibly. Luo Tianshen smiled slightly and continued: "The four largest platforms in China are Douyu, Huya, Panda and Fire Cat, you should know this, right?"
Firecat is the most viberate in Dota 2 among the four, but the atmosphere of this platform is not good, and it is better to ignore them if it is unpleasant to bet on dog dens.
Panda is inseparable from IG, and from my personal feelings, I don't recommend you to go to Panda. Huya is just starting out as a platform, and I've learned that they have a clear business center and have invested very little in the Dota 2 project. ”
"So you're suggesting we sign with Betta?"
"Yes." Luo Tianshen nodded affirmatively, "In this environment, your best or even only choice is Betta Fish!" ”
