Eric felt it was ridiculous: "Why are you uncertain? IOI has been sweeping the world, and its failure in the Greater China region is only because it encountered unfair game rules!"

"You were the players and the referees yourselves, completely treating IOI as a stepping stone for GOG. IOI's failure has nothing to do with its own quality. Of course, I'm confident enough in it!"

Lin Wan nodded with a smile, "Okay, then I wish you good luck."

Obviously, Eric hadn't realized the difference in quality between IOI and GOG itself, and simply attributed the failure of IOI to Tenda's behind-the-scenes manipulations.

Lin Wan clearly hoped that Eric would continue to hold this view.

Eric took a sip of coffee, "I also wish you good luck, Miss Lin. After losing the operating rights of IOI, I wonder if your department will lose their jobs? I don't think so. After all, this is all arranged within Tenda, and you should be reassigned to new game projects."

"It's just a pity that Tenda didn't cherish IOI, such an S-level project that only comes along once in a decade, and you won't have the opportunity to operate such a project again."

Lin Wan smiled slightly and stood up.

"No need for Mr. Eric to worry, we already have new work."

"GOG's international server will be online soon, guess how much our promotion budget is?"

"Seventy million dollars."

"What a coincidence!"

Lin Wan deliberately used a slightly exaggerated tone.

Eric was stunned, the hand holding the coffee cup frozen in mid-air.

What does she mean?

Changing teams at the drop of a hat?

And... with our money???

Saturday, August 6th.

DGE Esports Club.

Huang Wang installed the newly arrived camera.

Lao Zhou complained, "Who was it who said they would never show their face?"

Huang Wang's tone was full of helplessness, "I can't help it, I don't know why people keep spamming 'camera camera' there, what's so good about it?"

"I'm a grown man, I can't show cleavage like a female streamer... uh, okay, I can, but no one really wants to see that!"

"But they just keep spamming, and recently more and more people are spamming, and some are even spamming 'the streamer doesn't dare to turn on the camera because he must be ugly', how can I stand that?"

Lao Zhou smiled, marveling at how many ideas these silly netizens have these days, the poor streamer being manipulated by them.

Huang Wang adjusted the camera and turned on the live broadcast as usual.

As soon as he started broadcasting, a large number of viewers flocked into the live broadcast room.

Huang Wang's duo queue with Pang Ling had gained him a lot of fans, and after opening the live broadcast room, the number of fans had doubled.

The previous match had attracted many GOG players, who had become fans of Pang Ling, and then fans of Huang Wang.

Moreover, Huang Wang's live broadcast effect was very good. He and Pang Ling talked and laughed while slaughtering high-elo players. Huang Wang was also very talkative, constantly chattering, which suited the audience's tastes.

After all, for many viewers, talking a lot is equivalent to good eloquence, no matter what the streamer is saying, as long as they can hear something.

As the popularity of Huang Wang's live broadcast room increased, he also received various recommendations from the platform, so the number of fans increased.

Originally, viewers were spamming all sorts of things when they first entered the live broadcast room, but after a few days, the trend of the barrage had completely changed.

"???"

"Who are you, streamer?"

"Why is there a strong man sitting here? Where did the streamer go?"

"WTF? Is this what the streamer looks like? Are you sure you're not a boxer transitioning to esports? I'm losing my mind!"

"The streamer is indeed very strong, in every sense!"

"Quick, strike a pose!"

"Is this still the talkative streamer? The difference in image is too big! I thought the streamer would be a skinny monkey!"

Looking at the barrage filling the screen, Huang Wang was very dissatisfied.

What do you mean a boxer transitioning to esports?

And you want me to strike a pose?

What do you take me for?

Suddenly, a big rocket floated across the live broadcast room.

Huang Wang's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Thank you 'Begging the Streamer to Broadcast Naked' for the rocket!"

This is a bit awkward.

Huang Wang had no choice but to say, "Going naked is impossible, how about this, I'll change into a tank top..."

The needs of the audience can be ignored, but the needs of the big spenders must be met.

Huang Wang is a man of principle, and his principle is not to go against money.

Zhang Yuan passed by silently, and couldn't help but smile.

For him, these team members can't play professional games now, and they are just training and practicing extra hard, so their life is very boring. It's not bad to do some live streaming for entertainment occasionally.

Anyway, as long as the usual training intensity can be guaranteed, and they don't put all their heart and soul into live streaming.

Zhang Yuan returned to his room to check the training match arrangements with other clubs.

After the last match, GOG's popularity in China soared, and all clubs were shifting resources to GOG.

As a result, all the clubs came to schedule training matches!

After all, everyone knows that the two DGE club teams represent the highest level of GOG in China and even the world, since GOG doesn't have a global server yet.

If you want to play training matches, you definitely have to find the strongest to play against, to see how big the gap between you and the first-class teams is.

But Zhang Yuan thought, DGE only has two teams, and there are at least a dozen clubs scheduling training matches, which is simply impossible to serve.

What's more, the strength of these clubs varies greatly. Some newly formed or newly transitioned clubs may even fail to gank high-elo solo queue players, and it would be pure trash-talking for the two DGE teams to play training matches with them, with no point at all.

If the two DGE club teams want to continue to improve, the best way is to practice with each other, but they can't completely reject the training match requests from other teams, because closing the door to build a car and sticking to old ways may make the team members arrogant, and they may fall behind others without realizing it.

So, after considering it, Zhang Yuan decided to take the lead and make a simple schedule for each club, so that everyone could practice with each other and no one would fight for it.

This way, the DGE club can free up time for the first and second teams to practice with each other, without spending a lot of time playing house with these newly established clubs and lowering their level.

After spending more than two hours, taking into account the strength and time of each club, he finally came up with a training match schedule that included all the teams.

Zhang Yuan directly sent the schedule to the heads of the other clubs, asking them to arrange the training match time according to this schedule.

Of course, the heads of the other clubs wouldn't have any objections. With DGE, the strongest club, taking the lead, they could properly arrange the training match schedule for all the domestic teams, which everyone wanted.

Just as he closed his laptop, the phone on the table rang.

Zhang Yuan picked it up and saw that it was an unknown number.

"Hello?"

A man's voice came from the phone: "Hello, is this DGE club? I'm Peng Bin, the vice president of YY Live, and I want to sign your club's player Huang Wang, I wonder if we can talk about it in detail?"

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but be stunned.

Huang Wang has only been live streaming for a few days, and he has already been spotted by YY Live?

But on second thought, it's also true that these live streaming platforms are all highly motivated and are frantically discovering potential streamers, trying to grab popularity.

Especially streamers in the GOG field are being snapped up, and the signing fees are getting higher and higher.

Huang Wang originally had the strength, and Pang Ling's recommendation, plus his appearance and figure make it easy to create topics and popularity, so he is obviously a hot commodity in the eyes of these live streaming platforms.

After considering it, Zhang Yuan said, "There is one thing you must guarantee, that is, it cannot affect Huang Wang's original training time, and the monthly live broadcast time cannot exceed thirty-six hours."

"If you can't accept this condition, no amount of signing fee will do."

Peng Bin on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment: "We can accept this condition."

"But we also have a small request, which is that we hope to be allowed to use the title of 'DGE Club Player' to package him."

"Of course, we will also give your club some compensation."

"Our contract for Huang Wang is 2 million a year, and this fee can be negotiated by all three parties, the club can take a portion, and the gifts will be divided normally; in addition, YY Live hopes to become a sponsor of the DGE club at a price of 2 million a year."

Zhang Yuan thought for a while: "We won't take any of the money given to Huang Wang, it all belongs to him. As for sponsorship... President Peng, do you know that our team can't play in official matches?"

Peng Bin smiled very naturally: "Yes, we have already heard about this from H4 Club."

"But as long as your popularity is higher than other clubs, what does it matter if you can't play matches?"
