Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 179: Three-Year Plan
Even Liu did not expect that the two suitcases he carried actually contained more than one million yuan in cash. The red banknotes placed together were quite visually impactful.
Although Liu's current income and savings are far more than this figure, a string of numbers on the screen will never be as intuitive as cash.
This is also Zhou Dongsheng's deliberate bad taste. After all, for the young e-sports players who have risen from obscurity, there is no more tangible reward than this.
Especially when this group of e-sports teenagers have not yet truly enjoyed the e-sports bonus period, the greater use of cash rewards is to gain recognition at the family level!
In the eyes of parents, this is also the most effective way to distinguish between e-sports and Internet addiction.
"I promised you a cash reward of 1 million before, but considering that victory belongs to everyone on the team, I took out a little more cash and you can divide it among yourselves."
Zhou Dongsheng said lightly that although Zhou Dongsheng is currently wealthy, this is the first time he has withdrawn more than 1 million in cash.
But I have to say, it feels pretty satisfying!
"This 1 million is a reward for you to play in the LPL league, and I hope you can keep this spot. Of course, it would be even better if you can enter the world championship. By then, you may have 10 million in cash."
Zhou Dongsheng made a promise in a relaxed tone. Of course, he knew that the possibility was extremely small, close to zero.
After all, as a 15-year-old talented e-sports player, Yu Wenbo will soon be unable to enter the LPL league due to age issues.
At the same time, the intensity of the LPL league games is far better than that of the A-League. The strength of the upper-level teams in the LPL league is even more disparate from that of the lower-level teams.
However, this does not prevent Zhou Dongsheng from making promises. Everything is possible in e-sports. If it can be done, Zhou Dongsheng does not mind increasing investment.
"Thank you, boss!" "Boss, we will definitely work hard!"
"Wow, that's a lot of money. I can buy a pair of sneakers that I've always dreamed of!"
Hearing Gao Zhenning's words, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but twitch his lips. It turned out that the shoe king is the shoe king, and this nature is hard to change.
"My personal suggestion is that you can send part of this money to your family members, so that they know that you still have a lot of money to earn as a professional gamer. With the support of your family members, it will be easier for you to develop in the e-sports circle."
Liu who was standing by spoke his true feelings. He was extremely envious of the group of teenagers. However, Liu had a falling out with his family because of his desire to become a professional player.
Although he has started to make a name for himself now, his relationship with his family is still not harmonious, so he gave his own advice.
"I understand, Teacher Liu. We will." Shi Shenming said obediently.
"Pack up and let's go out for a meal together. It'll be a celebration dinner for you." Zhou Dongsheng suggested with a smile.
Having spent so much cash, Zhou Dongsheng naturally didn't need a meal. He just planned to simply and crudely improve the favorability of himself as the big boss.
Naturally, this proposal was unanimously applauded. A group of young people had sincere smiles on their faces, and their eyes revealed a sense of closeness when they looked at Zhou Dongsheng.
After all, the age difference is not that big, and the boss is so approachable. What more could one ask for?
Of course, the IM team was worried about leaving the millions of cash in the hotel, so the two heavy suitcases were scrambled by a group of young people as if they were championship trophies.
Although each box weighs nearly 10 kilograms, when you know that it is filled with red banknotes, it feels as light as a feather.
They called three cars, Liu sat in Zhou Dongsheng's car, and the group rushed to the dinner place in a mighty manner.
"Since the team has already entered the LPL league, it's time for us to discuss your shares." Zhou Dongsheng took the initiative to say with a smile.
Liu's eyes lit up when he heard that. He scratched his head and said coquettishly, "Boss, just give it to me as you see fit."
"Okay, let's not talk about this for now, let's talk about business." Zhou Dongsheng deliberately whetted Liu's appetite.
"It is of course a cause for celebration that the IM team can enter the LPL league, but this is just a key step. There is still a long way to go, and we need to make plans first."
"The expenses of an LPL team are still relatively high. I have tentatively decided to let Xiaorenwu Media be the exclusive title sponsor. We can also discuss sponsorship with other live broadcast platforms."
"We also need to acquire another A-League team and turn it into a second team. Let's call it YM, which means Young Man. We want to dig out and train some fresh blood, which can be considered as youth training for the first team and can also give some pressure to the players of the first team."
"At the same time, we have to strengthen the team during the transfer period. In particular, I heard from Principal Wang that the league may limit the age of LPL players in the future. Players under the age of 17 will not be able to enter the LPL league. There is a high possibility that Yu Wenbo, the main player in the team, will not be able to play. We have to prepare in advance."
"As for your shares, I'll give you 20% of them. After all, you're more adept at e-sports matters. The specific execution and implementation will depend on you."
Zhou Dongsheng spoke the "Three-Year Plan" orally to Liu in a very eloquent manner.
As for how much Liu can understand and to what extent he can execute it, it depends on Liu's ability. At least youth training will be his foremost profession in the future and he should do well .
As for shares, if you want the horse to run, you have to feed it grass. It is enough as long as the majority share and the right to speak are in your own hands.
Otherwise, why would others risk their lives for your career, especially Liu, who will be at the forefront of the live streaming trend in the next two years.
After he becomes strong enough, he might start a new business. Using shares to tie down Liu would at least be a very profitable proposition.
After all, the e-sports club was originally a casual move by Zhou Dongsheng. It didn't matter whether it made money or not. After successfully investing in the dream-seeking technology, would he still be afraid of not making money in the future?
You have to find something fun to do, and the emerging e-sports circle is a good choice.
Listening to his boss's grand plan, Liu couldn't help but feel ashamed of his short-sighted complacency. Why is the gap between people so big?
Not only is the boss young and handsome, he's also very rich. Not only is he rich, he's also very resourceful. He's already started making preparations for a rainy day. It's really infuriating to compare myself with him.
Liu secretly took note of the important news Zhou Dongsheng casually revealed, and prepared to look for some suitable candidates to strengthen the IM team during the transfer period.
As for the money, the boss has already asked for it, so why worry about not having enough money? Liu is still quite confident in Zhou Dongsheng's ability.
"During the transfer period, keep an eye on a young player on the WE team. His ID is theshy, he is Korean and cannot play due to his age. If possible, sign him and train him. I admire him very much."
Zhou Dongsheng said slowly that although this third piece of the puzzle could not be used for the time being, it would always be a good idea to stockpile it first.
After chatting all the way, the car soon arrived at the dining place . After the meal, Zhou Dongsheng prepared to set off back to Guangzhou.
Although there is still one future giant in Shanghai that has not invested in it, due to the current financial situation, it is a bit stretched to acquire Mihayo.
I guess it will be almost over once this stock market storm is over.
At that time, with Pin Xixi in the left hand and Mihayo in the right hand, even someone as steady as Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but feel a little light and fluttery, as if a flying dragon was riding on his face.
