Volume 2 Chapter 114: Xu Yuan is too expensive? How can it be expensive? It has been the same price for so many years!
Sitting on the high-speed train back to Shanghai, Xu Yuan fell into deep thought as he watched the scenery passing by quickly outside the window.
The matter has been almost dealt with.
After returning to the village, I delivered supplies, asked people to help renovate everyone's houses, and went door to door with gifts to thank them for their kindness.
I didn’t give them anything particularly expensive, just the most basic food and clothes.
These are what they need most.
It's not like he will never come back again after just one time. Now that the situation has improved, there is no need to give him money.
The main thing is that giving money has changed the meaning.
Xu Yuan simply donated a few hundred thousand yuan to the primary school so that he could provide food for the little kids and renovate the stadium.
Children are the future.
Almost all of the remaining money was donated to Guo Jia, who contributed to the construction of the road in the mountain village.
Fortunately, the road being built is a mountain road. Although it is quite difficult, the requirements are relatively low and it is fine as long as cars can pass through it.
The county government was very happy about his donation, and did not show any displeasure even when Xu Yuan asked them to send the accountant he specially hired information on the use of the funds after a period of time.
This also made Xu Yuan feel somewhat relieved.
Although there are always some blood-sucking bugs, there are always more good ones.
However, there was one thing that left Xu Yuan speechless.
After the county leaders heard about this, they took a photo with him and wrote him a letter of thanks. They also said that they would erect a monument for him on the roadside after the mountain road was built and help him apply for this year's top ten outstanding young people in the country to thank him for his help.
When Xu Yuan came, he had more than 14 million yuan on him, but when he returned to Shanghai, he only had a few hundred thousand yuan left.
Because this is the original body's long-cherished wish, Xu Yuan must do his best.
Besides, he liked it there.
For Xu Yuan...
He just likes playing professionally, and it's enough as long as he can make enough money.
And for Xu Yuan now, making money is too easy.
If he wins the championship this year... his value will jump to the highest in LPL, there is almost no suspense about this.
Because his popularity is so terrifying!
Popularity represents commercial value.
As long as you play professionally well, you will never lack money.
So what is he afraid of?
However, the way back was still a bit torturous because the place was a bit remote. It was not until I arrived in Wuhan that I could take the high-speed train to Shanghai, and the journey was still a bit bumpy.
However, Xu Yuan did not choose the plane.
Because although the probability of accidents with this thing is extremely low, once an accident happens there is almost no survival rate.
When he finally got back to the base, Xu Yuan realized that he was the first one to arrive, and the EDG base wasn't even open yet!
There is still some time between MSI and the summer season, and he originally wanted to stay in his hometown for a longer time, but the village chief drove him away, not wanting him to suffer in the village.
"What should I do?"
Carrying a simple bag, looking at the tightly closed door of the EDG base in front of him, Xu Yuan felt a little worried.
Staying in a hotel?
Forget it, I'll just ask my friends if they're there.
Xu Yuan took out his cell phone, opened WeChat and scrolled down one by one.
The first one is [Champion AD Group].
Xu Yuan took a look and continued to scroll down.
There are only five people in this group, which was created by Puzi.
In his words: Our group has a champion, so there is no problem naming it the Champion AD Group!
The group leader is imp, and the remaining four are Ashui, bang, piglet, and Xu Yuan.
A little further down is a casual chat with A Shui. A Shui said he was a bit unlucky. He didn't know who organized the incident, but the fact that he was underage was exposed.
Xu Yuan's mouth twitched when he saw this, "Su Xiaoluo is awesome."
It wasn't someone else who reported it. Wasn't it because Su Xiaoluo specially celebrated her birthday that it was exposed?
Xu Yuan opened the chat:
"Hello, hello?"
The other side quickly sent a question mark: "? What for?"
"Have you joined IG? Damn, the EDG club is not open yet, and I have no place to live."
A Shui sent a voice message.
Xu Yuan clicked on it out of curiosity, “Hahahahahahahahaha!”
Xu Yuan:?
Xu Yuan: Stop barking, is the IG club open yet? I'm going to stay at your club for two days.
A Shui: I don’t know. I’m in my hometown. It should be open. After all, Lao Song and Cheng Lu are still there.
Xu Yuan thought about it and agreed.
It is very likely that rookie did not return to Korea. Theshy is actually a rather lazy person. He probably would not bother to return to Korea in such a short period of time. It would be too much trouble.
Xu Yuan: I'm going to stay at IG for two days, no one will chase me away, right?
A Shui: It’s okay. I’ll call Luo Ge and let him know. You can just sleep in my room.
Xu Yuan: OK, you haven't done anything bad in bed, right? Then I have to change your quilt first.
Ah Shui: Roll, roll, roll, are you that kind of person? There are snacks that I bought under the bed, eat them sparingly, the trash can is in the corner, don't litter.
Xu Yuan smiled and quit the chat with A Shui, sent a message to A Bu to inform him, and took a taxi to the IG club.
Before I even entered, I saw... Su Xiaoluo!
What are Dream Tears?
Got it wrong.
What is Su Xiaoluo?
The initiator of the three-party division
The lifelong friend of the shit stirrer
Dung beetle's rival
Aspiring LPL enthusiast
Founder of "I'm Not in a Hurry"
After getting the SSR guaranteed, I imagine myself as the European emperor who got the upper hand.
This is Su Xiaoluo!
Overall, he is a very legendary figure.
I guess the only person who can make IG fans hate him like that is Su Xiaoluo.
"Xu Yuan! Xu Yuan!"
He saw Xu Yuan from a distance, his face showing a happy and embarrassed expression, and he waved.
I was secretly amazed. This contestant looks even more handsome offline than online!
"Hello, Manager Su."
Xu Yuan smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with him.
"These two days will be troublesome."
"It's okay. Ah Shui told me that you can just stay in his room."
Su Xiaoluo chuckled.
Are A Shui and Su Xiaoluo on good terms now?
Xu Yuan was a little strange.
As far as he knows, after A Shui left IG and joined TES, there was an IG party, but he couldn't come because of the economic contract, but he connected the microphone.
Ah Shui was fine with everyone else, but when he met Su Xiaoluo, he opened his mouth and said, "Luo...Luo is gone."
You know, Ah Shui once said, "Who are the people I call brother?"
He even likes to call Baolan Brother Lan.
Except for Su Xiaoluo, he didn't even want to call him Luo Ge.
One can imagine how bad an impression Su Xiaoluo left on him.
But now in S7, the relationship between these two people is surprisingly good?
Xu Yuan found it very interesting.
The two chatted casually, and Su Xiaoluo took him to A Shui's room.
At this time, A Shui was not the starting player, but his treatment was no different from that of the starting player.
Because coach Mafa thinks highly of A Shui and thinks he might be the last piece of the puzzle to complete IG, he lets him develop rapport with support Bao Lan in advance.
then……
Xu Yuan saw Bao Lan.
Baolan was also a little surprised to see him, and there was a flash of amazement in his eyes.
"Baolan, this is Xu Yuan who is staying with us for a few days. You should know his ID, right?"
Su Xiaoluo said with a smile.
Now in 2017, Baolan has changed his ID.
It’s not baolan, but megan. However, for an acquaintance like Su Xiaoluo, of course he still called her by her original ID.
Baolan withdrew his gaze, smiled and nodded.
"I know, he played really well at MSI."
"Okay then. I'm leaving now. Xu Yuan, if you haven't eaten yet, let Bao Lan take you there. Sorry to bother you, Bao Lan. I need to go to the home of a youth player this afternoon to talk to his parents. I really don't have time."
Su Xiaoluo nodded, and left the room after finishing her instructions.
Xu Yuan sat down beside A Shui's bed, smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Xu Yuan."
Baolan looked at his slender white hands, her face slightly reddened, and she stretched out her hand to shake hands.
Xu Yuan's expression did not change, but he felt a little uneasy.
Brother Lan, why are you blushing?
Maybe he was just shy, after all, he heard that Baolan and Xiran were in love.
"Can I come to your training room? I haven't played League of Legends since I went back home, and I'm kind of itching to do it."
Xu Yuan couldn't wait any longer.
Baolan was a little surprised, but nodded.
There is not much tactical intelligence in the training room, they all hold special meetings in the analysis room.
There is really nothing that is not accessible.
Of course, this is also because Xu Yuan is also a contestant, and a well-known top contestant.
Otherwise, not just anyone can enter the IG training room.
However, Baolan was not surprised by this, but because he found it a bit confusing.
Are there really professional players who particularly like to play this thing?
You know, many professional players don’t play League of Legends at all during their holidays because they are really tired of it.
"You and Chen Long work together quite well."
On the way, Xu Yuan made small talk.
"It's okay. West does work hard."
Baolan smiled.
“I hope we can make it to the World Championship this year.”
Xu Yuan didn't say anything else, just said "come on".
The two walked into the training room and heard theshy's voice.
"Ouch! This Amumu, he's here, what is he doing?"
At a glance, you can see theshy is punching the screen because he is angry with his teammates.
"It's okay, Xiao Jiang. Your brother Ge Yan will take you flying next time."
Kid, who was sitting next to him, spoke with a smile.
The two noticed the movement behind them and turned around.
After a few people got to know each other a little, Xu Yuan sat in A Shui's position and started playing rank.
After a while, a bowl of hot noodles was placed in front of him.
Turning around, I saw Kid with a smile on his face.
"Baolan didn't have lunch, and you probably didn't either, right? I'll just mix a bowl for you as well."
Xu Yuan's expression was a little complicated, and he smiled.
"Thanks."
"Hey, it's okay. I'm leaving now."
The kid scratched his head and returned to his seat.
Xu Yuan picked up the bowl of noodles and sighed.
Is this the bowl of... uncooked noodles?
Unexpectedly, he could still eat it.
This time I have indeed joined the group.
The atmosphere in IG is much more relaxed than that in EDG. Of course, it may also be because they are on vacation and everyone is more casual in training.
Xu Yuan stayed there for two days and became very familiar with the contestants.
The best relationship is...
Theshy and Ning, these two brothers,
For some reason always likes to sit behind Xu Yuan and watch him play ranked games with a smile on his face, and when he plays by himself, he only plays brawl.
King Ning simply likes to teach people, and every time Xu Yuan fills in as a jungler, he will come over to watch.
This puts a lot of pressure on Xu Yuan.
Damn, the FMVP jungler of S8 is watching me play jungle?
As time went by, the sharp fans noticed that there was one more person in the IG club.
"No, when Rookie was live today, there seemed to be a new person behind him? He looked very tall."
"Really? IG has introduced new players again?"
"Something's wrong. Who is this?"
While they were guessing, the big mouth Prince Ning accidentally said it out.
"Xu Yuan, let me tell you, when you are filling in the jungle, the speed of clearing the jungle is not important, but the idea is important."
It was this sentence that immediately allowed the keen IG fans to confirm the identity of this mysterious newcomer.
Xu Yuan... ?
Xu Yuan!!!!?
"Wait, is this the Xu Yuan I know?"
"The absolute big daddy of EDG?"
"What's going on!? My favorite player joined my favorite club?!"
"No, has Xu Yuan arrived at IG? Girls, tell me this is not a dream!"
“Aa ...
The popularity of IG super topic suddenly soared.
EDG's absolute core AD actually appeared in IG's club.
Now that the spring season MSI is over, there is only one possibility that he will appear in IG, right?
EDG, sold Xu Yuan to IG! ?
IG fans are ecstatic.
Is there such a thing?
Can EDG be so stupid... No, are they so kind?
Are you willing to sell a player like this?
IG fans just feel dizzy now.
Now that A Shui has not played, the current West often becomes a breakthrough point when facing top bottom lane groups, which makes IG fans worried.
The summer season hasn't even started yet, and you told me that EDG's big ADC has joined IG?!
IG fans all want to stretch out their arms and yell:
It's never been a better start!
Please cheer for me, drink for me... drink for me!
Could it be that this time our son of a bitch is really going to take off?
"Is our IG so rich?"
"That's normal. Principal Wang is not short of money. If EDG is willing to sell, then there is a chance to win it."
“Ahhhh, there really is hope for IG in the summer season!”
"Hahaha, I used to scold EDG's bottom lane, but now that Xu Yuan has joined our IG, it's okay."
IG fans opened the champagne directly.
At the same time, EDG fans suddenly went wild.
I was just going to have a happy holiday.
Suddenly I found out that my house had been robbed!
Countless EDG fans who couldn't believe it took to the super topic to speak out.
"No, what on earth does EDG want to do? Players like Yuan Bao can be sold!"
"Yuanbao is only 17 years old this year, right? He won Spring and MSI in his first season. What level of potential is this? He can definitely become the pillar of our EDG!"
"After a few days of vacation, you told me that Yuanbao was sold out by EDG?! Abu, come out and die!"
"Disappointment, rubbish club, I will never forgive you in this life."
"Are you obsessed with money, Ed Zhu? Can you really make money from this?"
EDG fans never dreamed that their star player would suddenly be sold by the club.
How could they accept this?
Sprint, sprint, rush!
Under the EDG official blog, countless EDG fans began a crazy sprint.
After one spring season and one MSI.
As for the contestant Xu Yuan, as long as he is a pig, there are only two words to describe his attitude towards him:
Recognition!
It is no exaggeration to describe Xu Yuan's performance in MSI as turning the tide and supporting a collapsing building.
This is a truly talented player who can be used as the core of the team. His future is not only promising, but he has already helped EDG win honors!
Can such a player be sold?
The club will die first.
When Abu suddenly received the news, he was stunned.
Xu Yuan was sold out?
How come I don’t know?
After learning more about it, I was a little amused.
He immediately notified the operations staff to issue an announcement. Because the holiday had not yet ended and the EDG club was closed, Xu Yuan went to IG to stay for a few days.
He really didn't dare to let the situation continue to develop .
Abu was indeed envious of this kind of popularity, but he really didn't dare to eat it.
After this announcement was issued, EDG fans finally stopped sprinting and breathed a sigh of relief.
You should have said it earlier!
They knew that EDG was not that stupid.
If you say to sell Scout... it would be a little hard for everyone to accept, but it’s actually okay now.
After all, Xu Yuan plays better, so just keep Xu Yuan.
But if you say to sell Xu Yuan, I will not accept anything as long as it is pig offal.
EDG fans have indeed calmed down, but IG fans are feeling bad.
"So it's not for sale... Are you just staying for a few days? Sigh..."
"That's fine. I'm just staying here for a few days now. Who knows, maybe I can really go to IG in the future?"
"I really cried. I thought Xu Yuanzhen came to our IG. I thought we had hope for this summer season. Wuwuwu!"
"Principal Wang, can you really buy Xu Yuan!!!"
For IG fans, IG's bottom lane has always been their concern.
Generation after generation, how many bottom lanes has IG changed?
It's just the same old story.
When has the bottom lane not been a drag in a high-intensity game?
IG fans have become numb to such scenes.
I thought I had hope, but in the blink of an eye, that hope was shattered so easily.
Instead, it makes it even more difficult to accept.
It just so happened that Prince Wang was live streaming playing games during this period, and many IG fans flocked into the live streaming room.
"Principal Wang, how can I buy Xu Yuan?"
"Yes, yes, we want to buy Xu Yuan!!"
"I feel like with Xu Yuan we really have a chance to win the championship. By then, we might even be the trident combination!"
"Principal, can I buy it?"
Prince Wang looked at the comments and touched his chin.
"Actually, I thought about it too. I contacted EDG after MSI, but you know what?"
"After the MSI, EDG told me that I would not discuss the matter unless the contract was over 40 million."
Young Master Wang has also been under a lot of pressure recently. He took too big a step and now he is having difficulty in cash flow.
And we also have to deal with the Panda Live issue.
In addition, the old man in the family is having some problems now, and Master Wang is also a little overwhelmed.
"Ah? So expensive?"
"Oh my god, a two-year contract worth more than 40 million? Isn't this more expensive than Uzi's contract?"
"Yeah, I remember Uzi's transfer contract was for three years and 50 million."
Prince Wang didn’t think that EDG’s request was too much, and he spoke helplessly.
"Is a two-year contract worth more than 40 million expensive? Not at all. In fact, it has been this price for many years."
"Really, don't talk nonsense with your eyes open. It's hard to buy top domestic ADs now."
"I have been in e-sports for many years, and I know best how expensive top AD players at such a young age are."
Young Master Wang is very clear about the current market situation. Someone like Xu Yuan, who is the absolute cornerstone for winning the championship and is incredibly young, has great plasticity.
The contract will naturally soar to a sky-high price.
"Sometimes I really need to look for my own reasons. I still earn less money over the years."
He spoke teasingly.
But I am indeed a little reluctant to buy it.
And EDG may not necessarily sell the player!
Prince Wang really doesn't think that Ed Zhu would be willing to sell a player like this.
Wouldn't it be better to build the team around him and take over the burden left by Mingkai?
After hearing what Prince Wang said, IG fans were indeed disappointed.
That’s true...Xu Yuan is too young.
The seventeen-year-old MSI champion is still the absolute backbone of the team.
It is really valuable.
For a player like this, the contract price will definitely soar to a sky-high level.
IG hasn't had much money in recent years, and they as fans are well aware of this.
With too many branches opened, the budget is naturally a bit insufficient.
The EDG fans in the live broadcast room were even more dazed.
It turns out that without realizing it...Xu Yuan has become so important to EDG?
Thinking back to when he joined EDG.
But there are still many people who want Xu Yuan back and want Deft to come back.
When thinking of the original scene, some EDG fans felt guilty.
Could it be that Xu Yuan remembered him?
On the LPL official website, Xu Yuan’s contract period is clearly stated, which is only for S7.
What if the game is over this year and Xu Yuan does not renew his contract?
Only now did they realize it.
What exactly have they overlooked?
"Xu Yuan! Don't go!"
"How about renewing your contract this year? I admit that my attitude was a little wrong when you first joined EDG. There were a lot of people outside just now, but now I kneel down for you."
"Alas, I don't have the confidence to keep anyone here..."
"No, what are you talking about now? The summer season hasn't even started yet. Let's talk about it after the S season is over."
"The Jimei above is too calm. Let me ask you, if there are so many people competing for him now, how many people will compete for Xu Yuan if EDG really performs well in the World Championship? Will we really be able to keep him by then?"
That's the problem.
We are not fools, and most of us know which player is good and worth buying.
In this case, if we really wait until the S game is over and Xu Yuan plays well enough, will it still be too late to retain him?
Xu Yuan is not a product of EDG's youth training, so even if EDG fans want to morally blackmail him, there is nothing they can do.
Amid the worries of EDG fans, as time went by, Xu Yuan finally returned to EDG, which gave them a brief sense of relief.
At least now Abu is not lying, he really is going to IG to stay for two days.
Just when everyone was quietly waiting for the start of the summer season, a blockbuster news came out, which suddenly caused a major earthquake in the entire LPL.
Without anyone knowing anything, EDG suddenly and directly released a message.
"I am happy to tell you that we have completed the transfer with KT. KT's top laner Song Jinghao [ID: Smeb] has joined EDG and will soon serve as EDG's starting top laner!"
"In the ROX team, Smeb played many highlights, and in KT, he is undoubtedly the core of the team."
"Glad to have you join us, welcome, Smeb!"
EDG fans: ???
KT fans: ???
LCK fans: ???
ah?
