Chapter 86: Your perspective is determined by your position!
"Who cares?" After chatting for a while, Old Mo suddenly slammed his hand on the table. "Who cares? We'll deal with whatever comes our way. If they like to play dirty tricks, we'll play along."
Qi Sheng remained calm, picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said, "To be honest, there's no point in us worrying about nothing."
He put down his teacup, looked up, and glanced back and forth between Lao Mo and Fu Shiyan: "If we change our perspective, perhaps the situation isn't so bad after all."
"Our equity distribution move is indeed very stimulating for the mid-to-lower tier teams in the LPL—after all, what they lack most is stable core players, and what they fear most is instability among the team's players. But for those clubs that have large capital backing or are about to have large capital backing, it's really not that big of a deal."
Qi Sheng then put it more bluntly: "The entire investment of an esports club may not even be comparable to their annual GG fee... In other words, if someone like Xiao Fu can really bring them viral attention across the internet, we'd be willing to give you the club's management rights, let alone share equity."
Fu Shiyan nodded. He could understand the situation Qi Sheng was describing.
Just like TES in the LPL in the past.
Despite often being outplayed by NXG in the league and being relegated to the background every year, NXG still manages to qualify for the World Championship every year, generating massive buzz and attention.
For Topsports, the company behind Topsports, this kind of brand exposure is more effective than spending hundreds of millions on traditional advertising.
Therefore, investors not only have complaints about TES's management, but they also wish they could give more resources so that this model could continue to flourish.
That makes sense. But the problem is—no one will applaud you before people see the results.
Before that, having obtained resources that ordinary contestants wouldn't even dare to dream of, he had to bear the hardships himself.
……
Let's put aside the rumors and gossip for now. The three of us are gathered in this slightly messy office today, and the real focus is just one thing—what path should BJBS take after officially entering the LSPL?
Old Mo was the first to speak, his tone carrying a sense of relief and satisfaction: "The LSPL slots have been confirmed, and the official contracts have been finalized. Our city tournament qualification slots are valid and clearly assigned. There were no issues like account boosting or qualification disputes. The process was very quick."
"Hehe," Old Mo changed the subject, his eyes almost disappearing with laughter, "Speaking of which, some of the top three this time were found to have problems and their qualifications were revoked."
"Is it MGB?" Qi Sheng laughed. "Our finals opponent. I thought their jungler looked familiar, but then I realized—wasn't that the team that played in the LMS league? According to the rules, they're not qualified to participate in this year's TGA."
"It's hard to comment..." Fu Shiyan shook his head, suppressing a laugh, and rubbed his temples.
Looking back now, PDD really took a risk, trying to use an old LMS player to launch a devastating attack.
And what was the result? Despite risking punishment from the league and bringing in "foreign aid," they were still decisively swept 3-0 by BJBS in the final.
Now that it's been discovered, they've lost even the runner-up position.
"MGB's qualification for LSPL has been revoked, what are those players saying?"
Driven by his coaching instincts, Fu Shiyan immediately asked, "If their boss doesn't plan to continue, we could consider bringing in Ning and Ming as the bot lane duo."
"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to contact them."
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It's a foregone conclusion that the club will enter the professional league and continuously strengthen its squad.
He had been worried that Comrade Xiao Fu would act on emotion in this matter and form some kind of "brotherhood alliance," insisting that none of the original BJBS staff should be changed.
Now it seems I was overthinking it.
The ass decides the head.
It seems that this principle is not forgotten because of age.
From the perspective of the player "Crush," one might feel soft-hearted;
But from the perspective of one of the owners of TSG, "Boss Fu," this kind of thing should not and cannot happen.
"The LSPL participation agreement will be signed tomorrow. The finance department has already transferred the tournament deposit, 270,000 RMB in full!"
He pulled a stack of documents from the briefcase next to him: "Company business license, legal representative information, equity structure, statement of no affiliation with LPL teams... all the main information for these clubs has been completed."
"Next is the issue of team and player registration." They neatly stacked the documents and pushed them to the center of the table. "We've already decided on the team names, and we won't change them. The problem now is—the league stipulates that there must be a full-time head coach and a team manager, and players cannot work for multiple teams simultaneously."
He looked at Fu Shiyan, his gaze questioning, "Fu, your situation is considered part-time. That means we'll need to hire more people. What's your opinion?"
While the club's management of training and match personnel is nominally under Fu Shiyan's purview, his true focus is on training, version analysis, and maintaining his personal form—these are his main responsibilities. The three had previously discussed having Qi Sheng handle the specific details.
Fu Shiyan didn't rush to answer, but lowered his head and thought for a moment.
"My idea is that we should strictly abide by the rules and regulations, and not miss any of the mandatory requirements. It doesn't matter if we have experience in competitions and training. We just need someone who knows how to lead and manage a team to help me with some miscellaneous tasks."
"Only management experience is needed?" Old Mo slapped his thigh. "That's easy to find!"
His eyes gleamed as he leaned closer: "Team manager? I'm one of those long-time employees who'll be there any minute. I've been wondering how to arrange positions for these old buddies, and you've shown me the way."
Qi Sheng chuckled softly from the side, but said nothing.
"Hehe," Old Mo's laughter turned somewhat frivolous as he winked at Fu Shiyan, "As for the team leader and coach... Little Fu, how about pairing them with two beauties?"
He deliberately dragged out the sound and gestured with his hand: "Tsk tsk, when we go on stage, with a beautiful woman standing behind our TSG, I guarantee the buzz will be off the charts."
Fu Shiyan's expression visibly froze for a moment.
"Uh..." He rubbed his temples, looking resistant. "A beautiful team leader is fine, but a beautiful coach... I'd better not."
Old Mo wanted to persuade him further, but Qi Sheng stopped him with a look.
Fu Shiyan knew very well that there was always some distance between the team leader and the players, and their daily contact was limited. But it would be different if it were a female coach—even if she was personally responsible for most of the training and competition work, as long as she spent a little more time in close contact with the players, those repressed young comrades who were in the throes of puberty and their hormones were surging might just cause them some trouble.
He didn't want to find out one day during training that his team's bot lane duo was putting on a dramatic show of breaking up over a female coach.
