Chapter 904: Zhao Xuming and Finger Company's Match
Saturday, February 18.
Modu, FV e-sports club.
In the morning, the team members had just woken up.
After eating Moyu takeaway, they started to practice high-end RANK single-row training. According to the schedule, there will be training games in the afternoon and evening.
It has been nearly a month since winning the ioi global finals championship. During this time, the fate of FV e-sports club has also changed.
First of all, all the staff were forced to return to the United States for a seven-day tour by Mr. Pei, and they had a good time to relax.
During this period, Wu Yue also took the team members to visit several old clubs in the United States to communicate, visit and learn.
It just doesn't seem to have a very good effect. Many players are a little disappointed, because these clubs seem to be not as formal and well-known as the GPL clubs.
But it's not bad as a small episode in the journey.
After returning to China, Wu Yue has been busy with various business endorsement matters, including the sponsorship of some digital products, beverages, and peripheral manufacturers, as well as the investment intentions of some investors.
The FV club has also changed from a small unknown club to a popular club, and its valuation has grown explosively.
Wu Yue still had a small part of the FV club's shares in his hands, so he made a lot of money this time.
Originally, Wu Yue's FV club was just for fun, and it was purely burning money. He didn't expect to get anything from e-sports.
But never expected that everything would change because of the day Mr. Pei came to Shanghai a few months ago.
Although he gave most of the club's shares to Mr. Pei, Wu Yue didn't complain at all, because if he continued to hold the club in his hands, it would be absolutely impossible for him to bring the club to the current height with his own strength!
And now Wu Yue has not only gained wealth, but also gained fame, realized his dream of playing e-sports, and made his players win the championship in world competitions.
Of course, Wu Yue knew that Mr. Pei, as the major shareholder of the FV club, must have earned more.
But Wu Yue will not have any jealousy at all, because in terms of Mr. Pei's ability, this achievement is easy to come by without any difficulty at all.
Compared with Mr. Pei's income from other industries, this income must be a drop in the bucket, isn't it worth mentioning? Thinking about it, Boss Pei wouldn't take this small amount of money to heart.
After the club had a large amount of sponsorship and made money, Wu Yue also changed the club's training base so that both the first and second teams could have a better living and training environment.
He purposely picked a villa nearby with Moyu takeaway and managed gym, and considered all the conditions to be as close to Mr. Pei as possible. After all, the situation of GPL has proved that this is the best training mode.
Moreover, recently it was the period when Tenda Group's industry was expanding to the imperial capital and Shanghai, and Moyu takeaway, Moyu Internet cafe, and managed gym also opened, which greatly reduced the difficulty of Wu Yue's location selection.
Since the FV team won the championship with a strong crush, there has been an endless stream of teams coming to the FV team to play training matches.
Because the FV team represents the highest game level of the entire ioi, whether it is tactics or personal strength, they are all top-notch, and training with this kind of team is the most helpful.
And not only the first FV team, but also the second FV team and even Ding Gan's SUG team, the training matches are basically full.
FV's first team's training match is too difficult to arrange, there are only two or three games a day, so many clubs set their sights on FV's second team and SUG.
These two teams were training partners of FV's first team during the World Championship, and their strength must not be underestimated!
They must have mastered some tactical details of the FV first team, and their various styles of play will definitely be closer to the FV first team. In addition, their personal strength is not bad, and they can have good results just like their training.
Many people even think that the real strength of the SUG team and the second FV team may be stronger than the runner-up team in the ioi global finals.
Wu Yue didn't refuse either. After all, the FV club still wants to mix in the ioi e-sports circle, so they can't completely close themselves off and not communicate with the outside world.
The global finals are over, and the version of the entire game will definitely undergo major changes. By the time of the next version, most of the tactics currently mastered by the FV team will be eliminated.
Therefore, there is no need to be self-cherishing and self-enclosed.
In fact, Wu Yue has not thought clearly about the future development of the FV club.
Since returning from winning the championship, Mr. Pei has not made any calls.
Wu Yue didn't know what Mr. Pei's real attitude was.
In this regard, the club's internal management also held a meeting.
Manager Lu believes that Boss Pei's GOG and ioi are in direct competition, and the FV club won the championship by stepping on the face of the finger company and Longyu Group in this world competition.
That being the case, let's just do the opposite and just switch the entire club to play GOG!
As soon as the world champion team won the trophy, they collectively went to other sports. It will depend on the face of the finger company.
But Wu Yue felt that it was very inappropriate to do so.
Firstly, the FV Club has an interest relationship with Tenda. Like DGE, in principle, it cannot participate in GOG's official events, unless all the shares of Mr. Pei are removed, which is obviously inappropriate;
Secondly, the FV club has just received a lot of sponsorship and endorsement, including the live broadcast contract of the players. The money is all earned as the "ioi global finals champion". It is always bad to pick up the bowl to eat and put down the chopsticks ;
Three, the players of the FV club obviously still prefer ioi, and it would be very irresponsible for them to go back to play GOG, at least at this stage.
Therefore, Wu Yue decided to temporarily put this issue aside, maintain the status quo, and wait for further instructions from Mr. Pei.
Wu Yue was watching the training of the players when suddenly his phone rang.
After seeing the caller ID, Wu Yue couldn't help being taken aback.
It's Zhao Xuming from Longyu Group!
Wu Yue hadn't talked to Zhao Xuming on the phone for a long time, and this was the first time since the FV team won the championship. Although I don't know what Zhao Xuming's intention is, but if the FV team wants to continue to mix in the ioi e-sports circle, it will inevitably have to deal with Longyu Group, so Wu Yue immediately answered the phone.
Zhao Xuming's very kind voice came from the phone: "Mr. Wu, don't be in trouble! Our champion team has no problems with their daily training recently, right?"
Zhao Xuming took the initiative to express his kindness, and Wu Yue naturally didn't need to take the previous quarrels to heart, and smiled and said: "Thanks to Mr. Zhao, everything is fine at the club."
Zhao Xuming said cheerfully, "That's good."
"I heard that the two teams of FV have been playing training matches with other domestic clubs? And the training effect is good?"
"Mr. Wu is a man who does not forget to dig wells when he eats water, and he does not forget to lead the brothers before him to make progress after winning the world championship. This kind of state of mind really makes me admire. Mr. Wu can be called an excellent representative of domestic e-sports people!"
Wu Yue smiled: "Mr. Zhao is joking, this is all our duty."
The two sides exchanged a few pleasantries, and both of them tacitly did not mention the previous unhappiness, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Zhao Xu obviously felt that the politeness was almost over, so he changed the subject: "Mr. Wu, I called today mainly for two things. The first thing is that Finger Company is already preparing to arrange a champion skin for your team."
"After all, it is the champion of the first global finals, the skin must be good enough! We have also communicated with the finger company, let them make more Chinese elements, and cater to the players of the national server!"
"The designers of Finger Company have already arrived from the United States, so you find a time to bring five main players to my place, communicate with the designers, and give suggestions on the design of the champion's skin."
"The second thing is about the ioi professional league. The current domestic professional league is named ICL, ioi championship league, or 'ioi champions league'! This name is what I specifically asked for from Zhitou, because the FV team is the world champion Team, then the competition area it is in must also be called the championship competition area!"
"About this ICL quota... Of course, there is a quota that is directly given to the FV team. In addition, we have also prepared a first-tier league quota for the FV second team."
"Currently this league is under active preparation, and a lot of publicity activities will be carried out at that time. I also hope that Mr. Wu can fully support and cooperate."
Wu Yue couldn't help feeling secretly that Zhao Xuming seemed to be a different person. In the past, he was indifferent to himself and had a cold attitude, but now he has become very kind, even closer than his own brother.
Of course, Wu Yue also knew that this was human nature. Zhao Xuming's ability to put down his face and reconcile with the FV club showed that Zhao Xuming was a mature leader who knew how not to affect the normal work process with his likes and dislikes.
Although there was still a little bit of reluctance in Zhao Xuming's words, the gesture was indeed sufficient.
Of course, Wu Yue understood this reluctance very well.
From the point of view of Zhitou and Longyu Group, the FV club is an uncontrollable club with a natural conflict of interest. But they won the first global finals again, and the two sides had to cooperate.
Rather than cooperating awkwardly and awkwardly, it is better to cooperate openly and honestly.
After all, Finger Company and Longyu Group also need the influence of FV Club in China to help them further promote the ioi national server.
Since everyone is an adult, there is no eternal enemy, only eternal interests, and the relationship can be eased if it can be eased. There is no need to make things stalemate.
Wu Yue immediately agreed: "Okay Mr. Zhao, there is no problem. These are the duties of our club, and we will definitely cooperate with them."
Zhao Xuming was very happy: "Then thank you, Mr. Wu! We had some unpleasantness before, and I hope Mr. Wu will have a lot of it, so don't take it too seriously."
Wu Yue also immediately went down the donkey: "Mr. Zhao is serious. It's just a little friction. Let the past go."
The two ended the call amicably.
But the moment he hung up the phone, the smile on Wu Yue's face immediately subsided, and he dialed Mr. Pei's number.
We must report this matter to Mr. Pei as soon as possible!
Zhao Xuming's intention of wooing is clearly revealed, and this is definitely not his own decision, there must be instructions from the senior management of Longyu Group and Zhito Company behind it.
For this kind of solicitation, should I flatly reject it, or accept it completely?
Wu Yue felt that this might affect Mr. Pei's overall plan, so he had to call to confirm Mr. Pei's true attitude.
