Rebirth starts from e-commerce

Chapter 362 E-Sports Club

洛修最终与企鹅签下了三年的合约，合约年限从2013年1月1日至2015年12月31日。

15 was the time when the competition in the live broadcast industry was the fiercest. After this year, the outcome should be determined.

During this period, Douhu Live Platform became the official partner of League of Legends.

Douhu opens the login portal to League of Legends, and you can directly jump to the live broadcast platform from the game interface.

When players are tired from playing the game or lose, they can seamlessly jump to Douhu to see how the anchors are playing.

Although other platforms can still broadcast live games, Douhu takes up the official name, and ordinary players will definitely choose Douhu first.

And for those streamers who play well, the first choice must be the official Douhu platform.

After Douhu has formed a scale, it will be difficult for other platforms to match it.

After winning this contract, of course it is not over yet.

Luo Xiu flew to Chang'an non-stop, looking for the old e-sports club - WE.

For WE, Luoxiu was most impressed by Sky, who was known as the emperor, and won the WCG Warcraft 2005 champion in 2006 and 3.

If Huaxia Esports were to be elected president, Sky would probably have the same status as Washington.

At that time, Luo Xiu was in high school and was obsessed with Warcraft 3. Even in class, he would draw maps in his homework and conduct offensive and defensive drills in his head.

After school, he rushed to the Internet cafe immediately to grab a seat.

In the first two years, it can be said that I had no intention of studying at all. It was not until the third year of high school that I woke up, quit playing games and devoted myself to reviewing.

In the end, I finally got into a university that was neither too good nor too bad.

After college, Luoxiu installed Warcraft 3 on his computer, but found that this game has gradually declined, and his youth will never return.

After the rise of the League of Legends, WE formed the League of Legends team and quickly won the 2012 IPL5 Global Finals.

Not to mention the gold content of this competition, at least it is the first world champion of domestic e-sports, and the opponents are also strong teams.

Luo Xiu approached them now to give them a title sponsorship.

……

WE, established in 05, can be said to be a giant in e-sports.

The word rich and powerful is often associated with being rich.

However, when Luo Xiu stepped into the gate of their company, he thought he was in some dark Internet cafe.

He even suspected that the company hadn't made money from black Internet cafes.

This reminded Luo Xiu of a netizen's evaluation of Sky's status in e-sports:

[Let’s just put it this way, he has won two consecutive WCG titles. In 06, the capital market hadn’t gotten involved in e-sports. In that era when prices were not high, he raised the average salary of Chinese e-sports players by himself. 100 yuan. 】

This shows how shabby people were in e-sports at that time.

The early pros were all about generating love.

"Hi Mr. Luo, thank you for coming!"

Zhou Hao, the boss of WE, saw Luo Xiu and hurried up to meet him.

He knew Luo Xiu's current worth, and any sponsorship would be enough for them to live longer.

"Hello Mr. Zhou!"

Luo Xiu shook hands with him.

After the two sat down, they started talking.

"I don't know Mr. Luo came here on purpose, what advice do you have?"

"I don't dare to teach you. I have always been interested in e-sports since I was a child. Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to engage in this industry. Now I just happened to be here on a business trip. Come to your company to have a look. It can be regarded as fulfilling a wish I have had for many years."

Luo Xiu didn't directly state the purpose, but started with small talk.

"It turns out that Mr. Luo is also an e-sports fan."

Although Zhou Hao has a lot of ambition, the society has never understood e-sports, thinking that it is not a proper job.

In contrast, what Luo Xiu does is recognized by the society, and he is inevitably a little uncomfortable in front of Luo Xiu.

Now that he heard that Luo Xiu also likes e-sports, he suddenly felt close.

"Why did Mr. Zhou have the idea of ​​doing e-sports?" Luo Xiu asked.Luo Xiu asked.

"It all started when I was in college. At that time, I joined the school's interstellar team and later managed the team. At that time, I wondered whether our country could also have its own e-sports club, so WE was established.”

When Zhou Hao talked about his original intention of doing e-sports, he couldn't stop talking.

Normally, he doesn't have many opportunities to talk about this with others, and others don't quite understand him.

A person who has been suppressed for a long time suddenly opened his heart, his eyes are bright, and his love for e-sports can be seen.

In the end, he took Luo Xiu's hand and introduced several members of the current League of Legends team one by one.

"This is our top laner, Tower Stealing Maniac Strawberry; this is our jungle promise; this is our mid laner Ruofeng, who plays cards very well; this is our ADC smile; and this world The first robotic curl."

"Hello!"

Luo Xiu shook hands with them one by one.

It can be seen that they were a little shy and nervous when they faced Luo Xiu, but when they shook hands, their hands were very quiet, and people couldn't help but think of the hands of a swordsman.

Of course, Luo Xiu didn't shake hands with the swordsman, this was just a figment of his mind.

But it is undeniable that these five are called the golden generation by later generations, and they are about to win the first championship of the domestic League of Legends World Series.

But at the time, it was only commonplace.

This can't help but remind people of the golden generation of the national football team that rushed into the World Cup for the first time. At that time, they thought they were just the prelude to a glorious era. However, after 20 years, they suddenly discovered that it was the last blooming of the Chinese national football team.

E-sports will still create good results from time to time in the future, but the national football team has never been close to the achievements of the year.

A large part of the reason why Luo Xiu came here this time was to sign contracts with these players.

Especially Ruofeng, who will become the most expensive game anchor in the future, with an annual salary of over ten million.

In the year when the competition in the live broadcasting industry was the most intense, it was reported from time to time that a certain anchor switched jobs at a high price. For example, Miss was rumored to transfer from Dragon Ball to Huya with an annual salary of 3000 million. The contract period was 3 years and the contract price was nearly 1 million.

After that, in order to restrain the anchor, there was a sky-high liquidated damages.

Many of these contracts of top anchors are at a premium.

In order to occupy the market, the platform can only sign contracts at a loss.

In the current Internet market, everyone believes in a concept, that is, the loser is out and the winner takes all.

The money lost now will be doubled and earned back after winning the market.

Luo Xiu knew how fierce the competition was, and even if he was as rich as a prince, he had to admit defeat in the end.

In order not to fight for money with others on the Douhu platform in the future, the best way is to sign those well-known anchors in advance and set high liquidated damages.

Buy the bottom while they are the poorest and most down-and-out.

Becoming an official partner of LOL, let Douhu succeed in the first run, and signing these anchors in advance is equivalent to adding a nitrogen acceleration to the platform.
