Chapter 224: SKT's new contract, T1's full team debut live broadcast
"Hey, Yiqiu, it's me."
The call came from Lee Sang-hyuk.
I haven't been in touch for a few days, and when I heard Lee Sang-hyuk's voice again, Chen Yiqiu felt very cordial.
"Sang-hyuk, what's the matter, do you want to travel to China?"
“…… I might actually make a trip. ”
Who knew that Li Xianghyuk heard this, but nodded, and there was a smile in his tone: "Congratulations, the headquarters has discussed a plan and temporarily gave you three levels of treatment, the details are a little different, I can't look at it, but it is certain that it is not lower than the price given to you by those clubs in the market now." ”
Chen Yiqiu smiled: "Thank you, Xianghyuk, I know you have said a lot for me." ”
The words here do not refer to whether SKT wants to keep him, but how hard SKT wants to keep him.
Fifty million is a year, and ten million is also a year.
The strength of this depends on the discussion plan of SKT's headquarters.
Among them, Faker, as a professional player, logically does not have much say.
But the Great Demon King is still different after all, at least in the current SKT, SKT headquarters values Faker's opinion.
For example, in previous SKT conferences, the company announced a restructuring or bought new players, and Faker's demand and indicators accounted for a considerable proportion.
And for Chen Yiqiu, this year's Lee Sang-hyuk has obviously broken through his 'limit', he has been silent on weekdays, but this time he has even worn out his mouth, just to let his good brother stay and fight with him for another year.
Although no one told Chen Yiqiu about these things, he knew them in his heart.
That's why I have this thanksgiving.
"Like you said, we're friends, very good friends, so it's as I should be to do anything for you."
Lee Sang-hyuk also smiled and said very truthfully: "And personally, I actually prefer you to stay, if you are not in SKT, then I think..."
"SKT also seems to have lost a lot of dynamism."
Chen Yiqiu: "......"
Why does this sound familiar?
You can eat indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense, you just said this to Zhao Enjing, tell me what's the matter?
"Uh... That's it, I'll wait for you to come. ”
"By the way, don't hang up yet."
Seeing that Chen Yiqiu had the intention of hanging up the phone, Li Xianghe hurriedly said, "There is one more thing I want to inform you." ”
"Well, you say."
"That's right, didn't we discuss the live broadcast platform for the new season last time, and Kkoma and Supervisor Cui also reacted to the headquarters."
"Yesterday, your domestic platforms such as Huya and Douyu have sent people to South Korea, and Superintendent Cui finally decided to cooperate with Huya."
Lee Sang-hyuk said with a smile: "The transfer period is the transfer period, no matter what the future holds, the current live broadcast cannot be left behind, you have to be ready these days, we may start the live broadcast of the debut in Huya at any time." ”
"The first live broadcast... Okay, I got it. ”
Chen Yiqiu nodded, but he was actually still a little in a trance.
The debut livestream.
It's been a little hard since he last broadcast live.
To be precise, since coming to the LCK, although he occasionally broadcasts during the break, due to his special contract, the live broadcast time is very short.
And at that time, he was so focused on training and competitions that he didn't bother to do any live broadcast effects, plus he was still broadcast live on the mouse channel, which could only be broadcast in China.
In short, there are all kinds of unbeautiful places.
Really calculated, this time, SKT's live broadcast in Huya's debut after winning the championship can be regarded as the first grand start of live broadcast since he became famous.
This live broadcast is different from before.
The most important thing is the various treatments given to him by the live broadcast platform, recommended resources, and so on.
For him personally, he must also pay close attention to the live broadcast of the new season, whether it is to retire in the future to get more money, or out of professional ethics, he has to do it seriously.
After all, Huya's 30 million contract was not given for nothing.
Since people have given such good conditions, there is no reason for him to be passive and slack off.
At this point, Chen Yiqiu is better than many professional players.
Maybe it's because he entered the circle early and was even more coldly treated.
So in comparison, he knows better how hard-won it is for him to get to where he is today and get today's treatment.
Just like the emotion of facing his parents after returning home yesterday, since he has come to this point, he can't lose these, he can only go higher and higher, and go better and better.
"Okay, you better take a look at the contract first, if you are not satisfied, you can still negotiate, in short... Although I also want you to stay, but you don't want to be wronged and get what you deserve. ”
After saying the last sentence, Lee Sang-hyuk hung up the phone.
Chen Yiqiu knew very well the meaning of Lee Sang-hyuk's last sentence.
SKT is currently his old club, but if it is broken in half for this reason, even if Chen Yiqiu is willing at present, but after a long time, he is destined to have other ideas in his heart.
The ugly words are ahead, and the annual transfer period of each major region is, to put it bluntly, a commercial competition.
Business competition, on the other hand, is not emotional.
He put away his phone, turned on his desktop computer at home, and browsed through the new contracts sent to him by South Korea.
Overall, this new contract is indeed the second largest contract in the SKT team at the moment, after Lee Sang-hyuk, as Faker said.
Even Bae Jun-sik and Lee Jae-wan, the two 'elders of the two dynasties', are much inferior.
And if you compare it with the current market, SKT's contract is also very sincere.
The annual salary is 30 million, and the live broadcast contract is calculated separately.
The annual salary of 30 million is already comparable to the actual price that can be given by the LPL division, and more importantly, the latter one.
The live broadcast contract is counted separately.
SKT's other calculation here is actually equivalent to returning Chen Yiqiu's live broadcast contract to him personally, and the club only retains one of the 19 points.
This is still the club's need to participate in the operation of Chen Yiqiu's live broadcast, etc., otherwise the contract can be given to him.
Rao is so, this is no different from directly returning the live broadcast contract to him.
In contrast, the LPL division, and even Europe and the United States, actually did not mention much in this regard, not that they were not optimistic about Chen Yiqiu's live broadcast prospects.
On the contrary, they should all be optimistic about Chen Yiqiu's live broadcast prospects.
But, that's on the premise of making money for them.
How high is Chen Yiqiu's live broadcast contract now?
Huya has already paid 30 million, in a sense, this is no less than the current Chen Yiqiu's professional contract.
Not to mention that there will be various benefits such as gift sharing later.
It can be said that Chen Yiqiu is now so sought-after in the transfer period, and his live broadcast value occupies a certain percentage.
SKT can directly give up this part of the income, which shows that it is really like Lee Sang-hyuk said, SKT headquarters has spent blood and shown unprecedented sincerity.
I don't want anything else, I just hope that the SKT dynasty can continue to continue, and there will be no other accidents.
"The contract is still one year..."
After reading these specific benefits, Chen Yiqiu noticed that the contract given by SKT is still one year.
The same is true for other teams in the LCK.
The LPL is different from the European and American side.
The number of years in Europe and the United States is the same, but they have requirements for Chen Yiqiu's results in the new season, and they must be written into the contract, and the salary is high, but it is a gambling contract.
LPL is more 'greedy', take EDG as an example, they give the best solution of the contract, which is also a two-year term.
In fact, the contract conditions of the three-year period are the best, and the money is given the most.
But...
Three years, too long.
God knows whether Chen Yiqiu will go higher and higher in the future, or gradually pull his hips.
EDG is gambling, and similarly, Chen Yiqiu is also gambling.
But he didn't want to be tied to a club for two or three years.
In contrast, the LCK's one-a-year model is more pleasing to him.
In this way, neither the players nor the club will be delayed, in short, you will continue to have a high standard if you can, if you can't, let's not torture each other, so that we can get together and disperse.
He already had an idea in his heart, but there were still a few other details of the contract that Chen Yiqiu was not very satisfied with, and he planned to talk to SKT again.
Meanwhile.
South Korea, SKT Club.
"Do you think he'll say yes?"
Kkoma sat in his office, feeling quite nervous and anxious.
Just a few days after winning the championship, two or three days after Chen Yiqiu returned to China, the news that Reaper was going to fly away in the new season was like a torrential rain, frantically slapping on the faces of Kkoma and SKT.
Caught off guard, he looked confused.
What about the start of the promised transfer period?
It doesn't seem like the transfer period has officially started yet, right?
Why are you already leaving?
What's going on with those teams in the LPL, are they so impatient? It's okay to 'kneel' directly at the door of someone's house.
Chen Yiqiu didn't know what Kkoma and the others thought, otherwise he would have said speechlessly: "I don't know myself, in two days, I have already traveled all over the world once." ”
Europe, America, South Korea, and even wild cards, isn't it just that the world has gone all around.
"I guess so."
Lee Sang-hyuk sat across from Kkoma, he was very concerned about Chen Yiqiu's whereabouts, but he was not worried that the other party would choose another team.
If I have to say, first, SKT treatment has been given to the highest, and he has fought to the limit of what he can strive for.
Second...
Yiqiu, can you bear to watch my brother and me play LOL alone?
Said good brother LOL, said good to build a dynasty together, you come quickly.
In short, the sincerity of the fist, the sky is pitiful.
"No, I'm still a little worried."
Kkoma is not as confident as Lee Sang-hyuk.
In all fairness, although everyone has treated him well since Reaper joined SKT, when it comes to personal relationships, the best ones are Lee Sang-hyuk.
Kkoma, as the strictest coach, rarely has contact with Chen Yiqiu in private gatherings.
So others feel stable, but he feels that it is still a little insufficient.
"So be it... We're going to book our tickets now, and it's best to settle this matter as soon as possible, don't delay it, and wait for the transfer period to start in case something happens..."
"By the way, the LPL official side has to pay attention."
The more Kkoma spoke, the more she felt a nail in her ass.
"LPL official?"
Lee Sang-hyuk was slightly stunned.
"Yes."
Kkoma nodded and said, "Don't you think there have been very few official moves in the LPL recently?" This was a departure from their previous stance towards getting Reaper back. ”
"yes..."
Originally, Lee Sang-hyuk didn't think anything was abnormal, but when he heard Kkoma say this, he also felt that something was wrong.
As everyone knows.
LPL officials have always regarded Reaper as a player in their own region, and SKT was able to 'pick it up' because of the original operation mistake and looked away.
But in any case, one stroke cannot write two Chinese, as a Chinese, how can Reaper stay in the outer division all the time?
must come back, and Chen Sheng must be allowed to shine for the development of the LPL region.
This is the attitude that the LPL official has not officially announced, but everyone can perceive it.
Even ordinary viewers and fans can feel it from the media promotion, interviews and comments on weekdays, not to mention SKT?
But this time Reaper's 'leaving home' turmoil is so big, but the LPL official has not made any big moves, which is very strange, abnormal, and unreasonable.
The LPL teams such as EDG and IG only represent their respective teams, and they do not represent the LPL official.
"Do they want to recruit from the channels over there and card us?"
Kkoma had already guessed as he stood up and began to pack his things.
He couldn't sit still, anyway, he had to see Reaper in person.
This person can't see it, and his heart is always panicking.
"Coach, I'll go with you."
Lee Sang-hyuk did not hesitate, he also felt that it was possible.
Because although the League of Legends recruitment channel has little to do with the region, in the final analysis, it is still a transaction between the two regions, in case there is really something new on the LPL side, let Reaper forcibly stay in the LPL.
Then they won't have a place to cry.
"Okay, let's book a ticket now!"
Kkoma made up his mind.
"Eh, do you want to call them up?"
Lee Sang-hyuk suddenly proposed: "Won't there be a live event for the first time in the future, why don't we go to China for a round together?" ”
In fact, he has always liked Chinese food and culture, but unfortunately he has never had the opportunity before, and Lee Sang-hyuk is not the kind of person who likes to travel.
But now with Chen Yiqiu's 'bridge', his sullen heart is naturally a little uncontrollable.
Of course, more importantly, if they go together, then Eunjing and the others may come too...
"Okay."
Kkoma didn't think much of it.
What he thought was that Bang and Wolf had a relationship with Chen Yiqiu, which was a decisive factor at a critical moment.
This has been proven in previous championship interviews.
As for whether Pei Junzhi and Lee Jae-wan will come, he thinks that with the personalities of these two people, it will be very positive to learn that they are going to Chen Yiqiu's house to 'invite' each other back.
In this way, without Chen Yiqiu's complete knowledge, the entire SKT team is about to arrive in China again.
……
"That's the way it is, so I'm sorry."
Home.
After reading the contract given by SKT in the new season, Chen Yiqiu did not drag the LPL club.
To go is to go, not to go is not to go, after all, you have to tell people as soon as possible, so as not to waste more time on their own.
And the people of Absu Xiaoluo, who heard the 'bad news', were also very disappointed at the moment.
Reaper is the most high-profile player in this year's transfer period, and he is also the figure that LPL officials and the club hinted that they must win.
Now that they haven't won Reaper, then whether it is their team's results in the new season or the official side, there may be a very poor result.
"Alas... Anyway, we hope to work with you... Let's talk about cooperation. ”
Although Abu was disappointed, he still stretched out his hand and shook hands with Chen Yiqiu: "The transfer period has not officially started yet, and there is still a long time before it ends, if you have other intentions during this period, you can contact me at any time." ”
"Our terms and conditions are the same."
"So do we."
Su Xiaoluo saw that the good words were all said by Abu, and he was a little anxious, and hurriedly added: "We are waiting for you, Reaper!" ”
"Huh?"
Chen Yiqiu was stunned.
The crowd around was embarrassed.
"Ahaha... So be it, goodbye. ”
Abu didn't stay long, seeing that Chen Yiqiu had no intention of doing so for the time being, it was impossible for them to cry, make trouble and hang themselves here.
If it's SKT, it's okay, but they and Chen Yiqiu really didn't know each other very well before, let alone know each other.
As for the clubs other than EDG and IG, the head of WE was very earnest and said the same thing.
It's a pity that the contract given by WE to Chen Yiqiu was too outrageous, and once made Chen Yiqiu think that they were here to joke with him, so he politely smiled and said goodbye.
The last person left is the team manager who not many people know yet, but Chen Yiqiu is familiar with.
Guo Hao.
Guo Hao rubbed his palms, hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "You wait for me to get sponsorship, I will spend 50 million to buy you!" ”
"Stay safe on the road."
Chen Yiqiu nodded.
"Alas!!"
Guo Hao stomped his feet in annoyance, turned around and left.
He hates it now, he hates that he doesn't have any money, that the club can't come up with it, or that he doesn't want to put up so much of the budget.
If one day, he finds a suitable sponsor, he must buy Chen Yiqiu.
And with the passage of time, this has also become a piece of Guo Hao's heart...
……
After bidding farewell to the major professional teams in the LPL region, Chen Yiqiu calmed down and began to carefully consider the details of SKT's contract for the new season.
In addition, he also found a law firm through his connections, and his heart of defense is indispensable, and he looked for professionals to see many things he didn't understand.
In the past, his annual salary was low and his contract was small, but he didn't care too much about these things.
But now his contract amount often fluctuates up and down, and this attitude is responsible for himself and the team, so as to avoid any disputes in the future.
And just like that, the day passed.
On the second day, when Chen Yiqiu was ready to officially contact SKT, he would exchange several details in the contract by the way.
The private phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Yiqiu, where are you now?"
Lee Sang-hyuk's voice came from the other end of the phone, gasping slightly.
"Where am I? Where can I be, at home. ”
Chen Yiqiu was a little puzzled: "What are you doing, you are panting so much." ”
"Oh, at home..."
The voice on the other end of the phone flickered and flickered.
Suddenly, Chen Yiqiu felt a noisy sound outside the door.
Faintly, there is the same sound on the other end of the phone.
"This is..."
Chen Yiqiu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
