"F*ck!!! Mr. Sheng, did you really buy DE? Really? Really?!"

"That's DE!!!"

"Awesome!"

Ever since the news came out, Sheng Quan's various social media accounts have been busy, mostly with messages congratulating her and marveling at how she was able to buy DE.

In fact, the purchase price was only 3 billion.

Three billion is a lot, but that's DE.

It is not just talk that e-sports and the entertainment industry each occupied half of the entertainment industry. The value of the largest e-sports club in the country is definitely not just 3 billion.

Let’s put it this way, the land area of ​​DE and the buildings and facilities dedicated to e-sports built are almost enough for Shengquan to recoup its investment.

Not to mention that this is a package deal, which includes expensive equipment and high-value players.

It’s easy to imagine that this news is like a major earthquake for the entire e-sports industry.

There have been rumors before that the domestic e-sports industry is becoming increasingly sluggish, and several major clubs have fallen into a vicious circle of "no wins means no profits, and reduced profits mean the only way to win is to cut salaries or reduce staff."

But no one expected that the first to withdraw from the market would be DE, which seemed to have the most confidence among all the major clubs.

No one would have thought that the person who would take over would be Sheng Quan.

Sheng Quan was still very satisfied with the results. After she returned to Xingmang, she went to the tea room and poured herself a glass of juice. She lay down on her own lazy sofa and said to Gu Zhao:

"After so many days of hard work, I finally got it done."

In the past, the lottery rewards were all handled by 006, so Sheng Quan basically didn’t need to worry about anything. But the task amount was different, and he had to do everything himself.

After collecting the relevant information, the delegation sent by Shengquan talked to DE.

The main reason for the final victory of this negotiation is that Shengquan does not have to be DE, but DE has only a buyer like her who is wealthy and willing to "jump the pit" at this moment.

There was no way. The e-sports industry was booming at the time, and DE was in high spirits. Not only did it buy land to build a club venue, it also spent a huge amount of money to build an architectural layout that was only suitable for e-sports.

Precisely because the club is so well built, the new buyer can only want to enter the e-sports industry.

Otherwise, after purchasing them, these buildings with cool appearance and unique interiors will almost have to be renovated from scratch.

Even if there are willing buyers, how many people can afford billions of dollars? If DE waits slowly, maybe it can wait until the price it expects.

, but they didn't have time to wait.

E-sports is notoriously expensive. Not to mention the facilities, just the team members, substitutes, batches of young trainees, and highly paid coaches are on display.

In addition to the operational planners, data analysts, team doctors, e-sports agents, psychological counselors, etc. behind the scenes, the bigger the club, the more people it has to support. It's a bit like filming a movie. Once it starts, every second is burning money.

Although their income was not enough to cover their expenses and they had to spend money like water every day, DE had no intention of selling the club. After the rules of this year's global competition were changed, they also spent a huge amount of money to purchase a large number of competition-specific equipment for player training.

“They exited too late.”

Gu Zhao sat at the bar drinking coffee: "But it's just right for you to enter at this time."

Gu Zhao was also involved in this matter. From the very beginning, he believed that acquiring DE was not difficult, and could even be called very simple, because their attempt to "reform" instead contributed to the demise of the club.

Even if Gu Zhao has never watched e-sports competitions, he knows that the core of e-sports is the players. What's the point of DE just piling up equipment and doing all those fancy things?

Without victory, no matter how much expensive equipment they bring back, the cost will only increase.

Sheng Quan also agreed: "If they hadn't committed suicide, I wouldn't have chosen them."

Although it is said that "if you want to buy, buy the best", if DE is not suitable, Sheng Quan will not buy the largest club in the country.

But who makes it so suitable?

Moreover, he bought it at such a reasonable price. Sheng Quan took a sip of the juice happily.

The once unscrupulous practice of treating talented players as consumables to make money and disrupt the market has now revealed its huge drawbacks.

DE has no way to revive. If it does not want to be heavily in debt, it can only sign the acquisition contract handed over by Shengquan.

Of course, they were also grateful at this moment that before the market completely collapsed, there was a big sponsor like Sheng Quan to take over. This could be regarded as stopping the loss in a timely manner.

After all, the situation of this global competition is not good no matter how you look at it. Chinese e-sports has been sluggish for so long. If the situation gets worse this year, it will be too late to escape.

Although it would be a loss to leave at this time, it is better than losing everything.

To put it bluntly, they just don't believe that Chinese players can win this year's global competition. In their view, Sheng Quan taking over at this moment is simply a life-saving savior sent from heaven.

Mr. Sheng: Thank you. I also think you are being taken advantage of.

In this situation where both parties thought that the other party was being taken advantage of, they argued for more than a month before the matter was finally settled.

When the trending search appeared, people outside the e-sports circle were just watching the fun, but all the major clubs were envious.

The top management envied DE for being able to get away at this time.

The others looked at the [Water Breaking Club] which was undergoing drastic and comprehensive changes, and envied Mr. Sheng for being even richer than the previous DE.

During the e-sports winter, basically everyone has a hard time.

Previously, DE had reduced players’ salaries several times due to poor management, and the salaries of other staff members were also reduced.

As a result, as soon as Sheng Quan took over, not only did the pressure stop, it even increased by 5% compared to before the pressure.

"Not only that, I also heard that Director Sheng bought DE because she had her eyes on a small team and bought the club just for that small team."

"She seems to have always been like this. She is very wealthy and gave money to the crew to appoint the actor she wanted to play a role in a novel she had been following."

"I know, I know, it's Yan Hui, right? My sister really likes him!"

While the laymen were watching the fun, the experts were already gossiping.

And this gossip that "Mr. Sheng spent a fortune on a small team" is definitely more explosive than anything else at the moment.

"Is Shengquan really a water-breaking fan?"

"Damn, I remember that Broken Water was very poor. If it's really them, that would be so cool, a pheasant turning into a phoenix?!"

DE was renamed Broken Water, and of course the first thing that everyone thinks of is the small Broken Water team.

After all, the team name cannot be the same, and there is only one team called Po Shui in the whole of China. Coupled with these rumors, everyone naturally talked about it.

Not only the players, but also the e-sports fans were excited.

Especially for the fans of the Water Breaking Team, it was a whole carnival.

[The water broke!!! Is it our water that broke? ! ! ]

[I think this rumor is a bit outrageous. Even if you are rich, it is unlikely that you would spend billions to buy a club just because you like a small team, right? This is the largest club in the country.]

[Upstairs, if it was someone else, it might not be possible, but if it was Sheng Quan... I actually kind of believed it]

[I looked at the past records of Water Breaking, this team is really good, but I don’t know why it only became famous this year]

[If I remember correctly, Bai Xiangyuan, whose water broke, just changed jobs, right? I thought this small team without even a substitute would be forced to withdraw from the competition, but unexpectedly, there was a sudden turn of events.]

Bai Xiangyuan's expression kept changing as he watched the new messages constantly appearing on the screen.

"Bai Xiangyuan."

Someone called him at the door. He looked up and saw that it was Zhang Heng, the bottom laner that Tianzhan Club was focusing on training. Next to him was another player. The two of them leaned against each other with their arms around each other's shoulders. They raised their chins towards him and said, "Didn't you just get your water break? Did Shengquan acquire DE in order to get your water break? Is she really a fan of getting your water break?"

Bai Xiangyuan's already gloomy expression became even gloomier at this moment:

"I've said it so many times, she can't be the one. There's not even a small boss in the Broken Water fan club, how could she possibly attract Sheng Quan?"

"That's hard to say. Maybe they came after you left." Zhang Heng laughed: "Did you see the latest news online? Someone found out that Director Sheng was also in Fangcheng and participated in the offline event of "Star Wars."

Another younger contestant also smiled and said, "Boss Sheng is a well-known big boss in the entertainment industry. He might know the director of the program. If he gets to know her, he might be able to get to know her well, right?"

Although it wasn't said directly, every sentence seemed to be saying "You missed the big boss."

Bai Xiangyuan already had regret on his face, but he still said stubbornly, "It's impossible. How could a small team like Poshui be worthy of Sheng Quan's attention?"

"Poshui is not a small team. If Poshui wasn't so eye-catching, how could Tianzhan recruit you?"

Before leaving, Zhang Heng added: "Today's equipment is full. If you want to use it, you can wait and see if you can schedule a game tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Bai Xiangyuan had always been able to use equipment first in the Water Breaking Team because of his status as an attacker. When he heard this, he frowned in disbelief: "I'm an attacker, don't I have priority?"

"Ah, you didn't miss the official website, right? We have eight attackers in Tianzhan. No matter in terms of experience or skills, they are all ahead of you."

Zhang Heng laughed: "But don't worry, I heard that when you first came, you kept saying that Tan Chen deliberately hid you and didn't let you go on secondment. Don't worry, you will definitely be seconded in Tianzhan."

"As for the equipment, you're lucky to have a first-round turn. There are only a few in the entire club for a three-round day battle. It may not even be your turn this year."

This sounds very sarcastic.

In fact, it is true that none of the professional players in Tianzhan like Bai Xiangyuan very much.

Before Bai Xiangyuan joined the team, they didn't have any feelings about this guy. They were all young and didn't know much about the small Poshui team.

But I can't help but hear Bai Xiangyuan say it himself.

No secondment allowed, no boxing matches allowed, training must stop when the time is up, etc.

Haha, this is like an employee who is forced by his boss to work overtime every day, gets no overtime pay, has low wages, and is forced to be pua by his boss, and hears a new employee who has just changed jobs and is talking nonsense:

[My former boss insisted that I only work seven hours a day, not overtime, and gave me car and food and housing subsidies, but I felt

He is hiding my talent by doing this.

Zhang Heng and other young players who were exploited by Tian Zhan: Go to hell! !

As they watched the treatment of the players in the [Water Breaking Club] constantly updated on their phones, their hearts gradually became excited.

If Sheng Quan really signed Tan Chen, does that mean that her ideas are the same as Tan Chen's?

If they could just break their water…

Bai Xiangyuan in the room didn't know that his teammates were planning to run away to their old club. He was constantly refreshing the official blog of the Poshui Team.

He also saw many people asking whether Sheng Quan naming the club Po Shui had anything to do with them.

It must be okay.

How is that possible?

How is it possible that he just left and his water broke and he became rich?

Even if the Poshui team is really accepted by the club, with so many teams in the world, it is impossible for them to be reused, right?

Bai Xiangyuan finally posted a new Weibo post.

This Weibo post was a repost. The Poshui Team didn't say anything, just two smiling faces like hearts.

The key point is that this forwarded Weibo post came from the newly registered [Poshui E-sports Club] and it came with a picture.

Bai Xiangyuan immediately spotted Tan Chen standing in front of the most expensive e3 device in the picture.

His name was even prominently displayed on it: [Don’t Chase—Tan Chen]

Poshui E-sports Club: [The main team Poshui has moved in. Excellent players deserve exclusive equipment. Each player will have an e3 at @Poshui Team]
