LOL: You don’t want to be broadcast live on the entire network, right.?

Li Xianghe also came up and drank it all with Pei Junzhi. Neither of them said anything, just looked at each other, and everything was said without words.

If it were someone else, Lee Sang-hyuk might have tried to keep him, but he knew Bae Jun-sik's temper very well. Since Bae Jun-sik had already made his decision, there was no point in trying to keep him.

Kkoma was watching all this from the side. He also knew what was going on, but he still wanted to save the situation, so he said:
"Jun-sik, can you come out with me for a moment?"

So the two of them went out.

As soon as the two of them left, other people in the box started talking.

Li Zaiwan muttered, "The coach should be able to keep him here, I think he should be able to."

Peanut teased, "Don't you usually like to make fun of him? Why are you suddenly so affectionate now?"

Li Zaiwan retorted: "We are only joking because we have a good relationship. If we don't have a good relationship, who would joke with him?"

Originally, Peanut just wanted to make a joke, but he didn't expect Li Zaiwan to be really angry, so he had to say:
"It's okay. The coach will definitely keep him when he comes."

A few minutes later, Kkoma and Bae Jun-sik came back, talking and laughing, which made Li Jae-wan suddenly feel hopeful!

Since they were talking and laughing, they must have been retained!

However, Kkoma said, "By the way, there is something you need to consider quickly. The champion skin issue should be decided as soon as possible while everyone is still here."

Hearing this, Li Zaiwan's face changed. What does this mean? Generally speaking, champion skins can only be made in the spring season next year? Are you asking now?

And he even specifically said something like "while everyone is still here", which clearly means someone wants to leave.

Peanut was the first to speak: "I want a champion skin for Graves. I like this hero very much. I don't have time for fooling around!"

Peanut imitated the voice of the male gunner.

However, the others don’t look handsome at all, but rather very out of place.

Chen Yiqiu complained: "Your voice is too gentle, it doesn't match the male gun temperament."

Lee Jae-wan complained: "I can't imagine a character with a big beard and a gun in his hand having this kind of voice."

Peanut: "I just want the skins anyway, it's not my voice acting, it doesn't matter."

Li Zaiwan continued: "I want... a... robot's skin, yes! A robot! I am the king of robots!"

Hearing this, Pei Junzhi couldn't hold back any longer: "Have you forgotten that your robot was beaten by RNG's bottom lane? Forget it, your robot is not very good."

Li Zaiwan argued: "What do you mean my robot was destroyed? We are a whole bottom lane. If we are to be destroyed, it will be the two of us together. How can you single me out?"

Kkoma looked at Bae Joon-sik and said, "Have you decided which champion skin you want? Of course, if you haven't decided yet, don't worry. You don't have to make a decision today."

Pei Junzhi thought for a while and replied: "I want a champion skin for a cannon."

“Hahahahaha…Tristana’s champion skin, hahahaha…” Li Jae-wan laughed out loud.

Pei Junzhi muttered: "Is the small cannon not okay? What's wrong with the small cannon?"

Li Zaiwan laughed, "Didn't you see the trend online? They are now saying that your Tristana is a lifesaver. If it wasn't for Vayne saving the world today, we would have lost."

Pei Junzhi responded: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, I have decided, it's Xiao Pao."

Kkoma looked at Chen Yiqiu and Li Xianghe: "Have you two decided? Which champion skin do you want to choose?"

Chen Yiqiu didn't hesitate at all and made a decision immediately: "Blue Steel Shadow Camille."

Upon hearing the name, Li Zaiwan immediately became excited: "Precise etiquette! I remember your operation again, it was so cool!"

Xiaohuasheng: "I think that's what champion skins should be like. When you see this skin, you can think of the corresponding player's performance, right? This is the only way to have iconic meaning."

After Peanut said this, Li Zaiwan laughed again: "Then when we see Tristana, don't we have to think of his ultimate move to save people?"

Bae Joon-sik rolled his eyes at Lee Jae-wan.

At this time, Li Xianghe also made a choice: "I plan to get a champion skin for Snake Girl."

In this way, the championship skins for all five SKT players have been chosen.

Kkoma wrote it down on his phone and read: "Look and see if it's correct. Top lane is Shen, jungle is Graves, mid lane is Cassiopeia, ADC is Tristana, and support is Blitzcrank."

Everyone nodded to indicate that it was okay.

Kkoma said, "That's settled then. When you have time, think about the celebration moves for the champion skins."

At the same time, the online carnival of SKT’s championship has just begun. Countless SKT fans have logged in and started playing together, using the lineup that SKT used today to imitate their operations and playing style.

The official also announced the rewards for SKT's victory this time. All heroes can be tried for free, most skins can be used for free, and then SKT's previous championship skins will be sold at a discount. With this set of combos, they can make crazy money.

Although it was late at night, Ponytail was still in the office, and it was destined to be a sleepless night.

She needs to pay attention to various situations on the Internet at all times.

"There is a situation to report."

A voice came from the Bluetooth headset, and Ponytail responded.

"explain."

"Several foreign club owners have contacted SKT, seemingly trying to get information. We have received some scattered information."

In fact, there are "spies" between different regions. Of course, these so-called spies are two-faced people, selling information back and forth between the two regions.

Of course, none of this is very confidential information.

"It seems that SKT is considering the salary issue. Right now, SKT's overall salary is too high, especially for the mid and top laners. They may not be able to continue to increase their salaries this year."

"Moreover, considering that the bottom and mid laners are not performing well, we may even consider reducing their salaries."

Ponytail didn't feel surprised to hear the news. The club needs to make money. If it is a loss-making business, no one will do it.

Therefore, even if SKT wins another championship now, the boss may not be willing to increase wages.

Generally speaking, when a club wins its first championship, its revenue will increase exponentially.

When you win two championships, your earnings can still skyrocket, but not as much as the first championship.

If you win the third championship, the benefits will basically reach its peak. Those who like this club will basically like it, and for those who don't like this club, it will be useless even if you win more championships.

SKT is in such a situation now. Its fan base is already very solid and difficult for others to snatch away, but it can also continue to expand.

In this case, if the players' salaries are to increase every year, the club would definitely not be willing to do so.

Thinking of this, Ponytail suddenly felt that the opportunity had come. Since SKT was going to adjust the salary, there would definitely be discord within SKT.

So Ponytail ordered: "Contact that... Guo Hao, and bring him to the meeting as well."

"Okay, I'll do it right away." After a short wait, Guo Hao joined the online meeting.

"I pulled the person in."

So Ponytail said, "I just saw on the Internet that you guys, Topsports, are planning to invest heavily in LPL and set up an e-sports club? And you're planning to recruit Reaper into the team?"

"Yes, but it's hard to say whether Reaper will join. It doesn't seem to be a matter of money. If it's just a matter of money, we can solve it."

Ponytail knew what was going on. He knew that there must be something real behind such a loud tone.

She continued: "I have an idea now. We in LPL fully support Top Esports in recruiting Reaper. If you want to bring him into the team, money alone is definitely not enough."

"From the interview just now, it can be seen that what he values ​​most is the championship, so he needs to build a lineup that looks like it can win the championship. In this regard, we in LPL will fully support."

For Ponytail, the support she can provide is often something that money can’t buy.

For example, if Top Esports wants a certain type of player, but this player cannot be bought with a certain amount of money, the other club may be reluctant to give him up.

But if she takes action, the other club may release the human. Although not every club will give her face, most clubs should be able to communicate.

"That's no problem. Since we have strong support from the LPL officials, we will start preparing and try to bring Reaper to the LPL and help the LPL win its first championship!"

The next day, the SKT team rested in the hotel for a day. They originally planned to go out and play after a day of rest.

However, after I really relaxed, I found that I was more tired than I thought.

Chen Yi Qiu slept until two o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, and found that he was the first one to wake up. He sent messages to others but received no response.

It was evening when all the SKT players woke up and left the room to eat.

Li Zaiwan smiled and said, "Can you all sleep so well? You have slept from last night until now."

Pei Junzhi yawned: "You are still the same."

Peanut got excited: "I feel energetic now, I really want to play a game."

Bae Joon-sik complained: "You haven't played enough. I feel like vomiting and dizzy when I think about League of Legends. I've really had enough."

Chen Yi Qiu guessed that Pei Junzhi had really lost the idea of ​​winning the championship, and perhaps retirement was his best destination.

If you want to win the championship, talent is only one factor, and the competitive spirit is essential. It is easy to relax your competitive spirit, and Bae Joon-sik is in this state.

Of course, as a teammate, Chen Yi Qiu cannot use moral blackmail.

Everyone has their own aspirations, and you can't force others to work as hard as you do.

If you feel that your teammates are not competitive enough, making it difficult for you to win, the right thing to do is to find teammates who do want to win.

The SKT team took the elevator downstairs, ready to go out for dinner.

As a result, before I even left the house, I was stopped in the lobby.

"Excuse me, Reaper. Excuse me, everyone in SKT. This is the manager of C9. He wants to talk to Reaper. Is he free?" The person who spoke was a Chinese.

It looks like he is a translator, and the boss of the C9 team is a white man.

Chen Yiqiu told his teammates about the other party's intentions: "They are from C9 and want to talk to me."

After hearing this, everyone in SKT understood, so Kkoma said, "Let's go first. The place to eat is very close anyway. Let's go over and order food and wait for you to come over."

"Okay." Chen Yi Qiu nodded. Actually, he didn't have a clear goal at the moment, so he wanted to have more contact.

So the teammates left first, and Chen Yi Qiu stayed to communicate with the two of them.

Although the C9 team seems to have no achievements, they are very strong and have the US Air Force behind them.

The C9 manager took out a check from his pocket and said, "As long as you are willing to join us, C9, you can pay the salary."

The translator was about to translate when Chen Yiqiu said, "It's okay, I can understand."

Then Chen Yiqiu asked back: "Besides me, who else does C9 plan to recruit next season?"

Chen Yi Qiu knew that with the current C9 lineup, it would be impossible to win the championship even if he went, and they needed to continue to strengthen.

After hearing what Chen Yiqiu said, the C9 manager became excited, as if he saw hope: "If you are willing to join, as long as you like the players and can buy them with money, we are willing to recruit them."

Chen Yiqiu asked back: "Including all the players in the LCK and LPL regions?"

The C9 manager nodded repeatedly: "Yes, all the players from all regions are welcome as long as we can talk to them."

The translator next to him was stunned. Isn't this too much?

He really wanted to ask, is it okay to include players like Faker?
But he didn't ask, after all, he was just a translator.

But what he didn't expect was that Chen Yiqiu asked this question: "Including Faker?"

The C9 manager's eyes lit up and he became even more excited: "Reaper, what you mean is that we can still have a chance to package you and Faker together? That would be the best!"

The C9 manager was so excited that he grabbed Chen Yiqiu's arm and said, "If Reaper can help convince Faker, we are willing to pay any price!"

"Which team's coach do you need, which team's analyst, manager, team leader, etc.? You can say that the last thing we lack is money."

Chen Yi Qiu understood that C9 really wanted a championship.

Indeed, for a region that has never won a championship, the first championship is extremely crucial and has very strong representative significance.

At the same time, the North American region is relatively wealthy. If they can win a championship, the profits will be unimaginable.

Therefore, being willing to pay any price is not an empty talk, because they can indeed make the money back.

Chen Yiqiu responded: "I need to think about it. If I have made a decision, I will contact you."

"Okay, no problem. Give me a contact number, Reaper."

So Chen Yi Qiu and the manager of C9 exchanged contact information.

"Can we take a photo together? Reaper, I'm your fan too." The C9 manager continued.

Chen Yi Qiu naturally would not refuse. He chose to take a photo with C9’s manager. The two shook hands and smiled in front of the camera.

After dealing with the problems here, Chen Yi Qiu went straight to meet up with his teammates and have dinner together.

His teammates had already sent him the box number, and after entering the hotel, he found his seat with ease.

When we entered the box, the food hadn't been served yet and everyone was playing with their phones and chatting.

As soon as Chen Yiqiu came in, everyone looked over. Li Zaiwan asked, "How is it going? Have you already negotiated with C9?"

Peanut said: "I heard that the C9 team is very rich. As long as they can buy good players, they are willing to pay higher salaries than other teams. Unfortunately, their local players are not very good." (End of this chapter)
