Chapter 67: Finals vs. MGB!
Chapter 67: Finals vs. MGB!
After signing the contract, Fu Shiyan officially became a member of the three-person management team of TSG eSports Club.
However, the club's name for external competitions has not been changed for the time being, and it still uses the three letters "BJBS".
Fu Shiyan didn't rush to announce his final destination to his fans in the live stream.
As long as the three of them don't tell anyone, there's no way this news has been leaked.
After all, who would have thought that a big investor would go all in, not by offering high prices to lure people in, but by directly giving shares to invite Crush to join them?
Qi Sheng suggested waiting until the City Championship was over, and after the team officially secured their LSPL entry ticket, before releasing the news of Crush, the top player in the Chinese server, joining the team.
The effect of traffic can be maximized when two things are done together.
Fu Shiyan did not object.
He didn't need to worry about anything, from the club's business registration and training base renovation to the recruitment of support staff.
All he needs to do is manage the team and lead BJBS to victory in the finals.
Oh, of course, after entering LSPL, he will still have to take care of the team's reinforcements, recruiting substitutes, and completing the training staff himself.
Qi Sheng and Fu Shiyan had no objections. As for Old Mo, who couldn't let go of the "see you there" promise, he was even less likely to have any objections.
If TSG represents the future of his esports dream, then BJBS is the past etched deep in his mind, a white moonlight he will never forget!
……
November 15th!
Zhanqi TV, the live stream room of "Liu, who will soon have a mermaid line".
On the right side of the completely black screen, one barrage of comments kept pouring in.
Hurry up, hurry up! This city championship final is dragging on like a constipation.
[I can't believe MGB is actually making it into the LSPL! I wonder if we fans can be considered original shareholders now.]
Go for it, Lao Park! The championship you didn't win now, your team can win it now!
[That's like killing someone by breaking their spirit, bro.]
Is it possible that Park Geun-hye might not have won this championship today?
[No, what are you doubting? With the skill level of the MGB players, and PDD personally overseeing the draft, a small championship is practically a piece of cake, isn't it?]
Seeing the comments above, I honestly can't tell if they're just trolls or genuinely clueless rural folks.
Don't you guys even think about why Sao Zhu was under so much pressure that he took leave to be there in person to oversee the match, instead of staying in the livestream and relying on the viewership of the finals?
[Friendly reminder: MGB's final opponent is BJBS!]
[BJBS? Never heard of it. Which LPL club has a second team?]
[Uh, it seems quite a few people haven't been following the City Championship. You might not know BJBS, but you should at least know about Crush, the top-ranked player on the Chinese server, right?]
[Holy crap, I was wondering why I couldn't find Dayun's team. Is it in the City Championship?]
Yes, yes, by the way, BJBS has advanced to the finals undefeated from the group stage until now, without losing a single game!
This LPL season is terrible. After all this time, they still haven't managed to snatch a player from a team from an internet cafe.
Why bother going to an LPL team? Just qualify directly!
[Oh ho, is Crush really going to keep the bold statement he made during his livestream?]
[Let's make it to the LPL! I'm a 10-year Crush fan!]
[I can't believe it! Supporting Dayun in PDD's livestream, you guys are really something else.]
Backstage at Zhanqi TV.
Looking at the dense barrage of comments in the interactive box, the manager in charge of platform marketing had very mixed feelings.
"Who would have thought that a city championship tournament would garner almost as much attention as an LPL playoff game?"
"Who says otherwise?" the assistant beside him agreed.
"Ever since Crush suddenly appeared on the Chinese server, one strange thing after another has happened."
"First, Huya promoted an unsigned streamer, then Dopa, who had dominated the top ranks in both the Chinese and Korean servers for years, was completely crushed, making him an overnight sensation!"
"Later on, he was able to create an enormous stir even in fringe leagues like TGA, as if the traffic was chasing after him."
"There's nothing we can do; some people are just born to make a living this way."
"Those guys on Huya are really lucky. They managed to draw an SSR gold card despite all their blunders."
Forget about grassroots narratives and the rise of the small; the platform only values ability. If you have the skills and dreams, come join us.
But those viewers just got their way, trying to fool their fellow industry peers too, even though it's been eighty years.
The operations manager of Zhanqi was indignant.
Unfortunately, by the time they realized that the City Championship was a major alternative to the LPL region's failure in the S5 World Championship, the opponent had already devoured most of their resources.
The reason why the finals can be broadcast now is because MGB was formed by streamers under PDD's management.
"Have you found out how long Crush's contract with Huya is?"
"No... I don't know why, but this time those people are all being more tight-lipped than the other."
"Then let's try to contact the owner of BJBS. If we can't sign Crush, signing the entire BJBS team and their broadcasting rights after they are promoted to LSPL or even LPL would be good too."
"Does the manager have such high hopes for BJBS?"
I'm a little surprised. The finals haven't even started yet, and the financial backers behind MGB are already more optimistic about their opponent, BJBS... Is that reasonable?
"Besides, didn't BJBS sign with Huya?"
"You can sign another contract, right? Each league has a different price. Huya can't have offered the same standard contract as top-tier league teams before!"
"As for why I'm optimistic about BJBS?"
This operations manager, who was barely in his early thirties, had a strange expression on his face!
He can't very well say that he was matched with members of BJBS when he played ranked games before.
A simple comparison reveals that the two teams' performance levels are incomparable, given their levels a few months ago and their current form. Their training tactics and management are simply not comparable.
at the same time.
Jiangsu Province!
Haiyundi Road, Taicang Science and Education New City.
Inside the venue for the TGA Winter Grand Prix finals.
The once empty spectator stands were now packed with people.
It's worth noting that before today's elimination rounds, even with tickets for the TGA Grand Prix being sold at half price or given away for free, the attendance was only a few dozen people.
"Hey guys, you're here to watch Da Yun's game too?"
At the scene, two young people talking succinctly revealed the reason for the massive crowds today.
"Absolutely! I'm a 'See You Anymore' star user. I can't control other teams, but of course I have to support my own team!"
"Oh ho ho, bro, you're from Shanghai too?"
While waiting for the competition to officially begin, several more young people joined in.
"Yes, it's from the business class section of the high-speed rail."
"Hehe, Boss Mo's No. 3 store was sold, right? On the day he closed the store, he drew a lot of all-inclusive viewing gift packs. I was lucky enough to draw the first prize."
"I bought my own ticket. Although Suzhou doesn't have an airport, it's not far from Shanghai, and the high-speed rail is convenient."
"Wait a minute, you just said that Boss Mo sold the 'See You Later No. 3' restaurant?"
"Wow, they're really going to bury themselves in building the team!"
"Hearing you guys say that, I have a bold idea. Do you think it's possible that Da Yun hasn't signed with any LPL teams for so long...?"
"!!!"
