NAVI is very strong.
According to the rules they will be randomly matched with teams.
Both games on the first day were assigned to the Silver Group.
It can be called a feast of slaughter.
The difference between professional players and ordinary players is too obvious in the game.
Lu Yiming's OB two games ended that day.
Someone suggested on the barrage to cancel random matching.
He also stated that he would try his best to arrange a strong team for NAVI.
Only in this way can it be enjoyable to watch.
And looking at these barrages.
Lu Yiming shook his head and smiled: "The purpose of this event is mainly for entertainment. Teams that encounter NAVI will be automatically promoted, and kill players in the game to get lottery points. Essentially, I want you to see how many professions there are. Strong! But if you find it boring, I can arrange the seventh game for you. The champion team of the legendary group in this event can challenge NAVI. The price is that if they lose, the rewards they receive will be cleared!"
Speaking of this, Lu Yiming paused.
Then he smiled and said: "If we win, in addition to the promised car, I will also reward each person with an additional 100,000 in cash! If you are interested in developing in the professional arena, I will arrange which domestic team, other than Tianlu, you want to try out with!" "
Hear this.
The water friends in the live broadcast room’s eyes lit up.
The legendary group has only a small number of people.
There will only be one champion.
Generally speaking, the guaranteed reward for winning the legendary group is more than 50,000 yuan. It still takes a little courage to challenge NAVI at the cost of 50,000 yuan.
at this time.
The news reached the ears of players in the legendary group.
They all became excited.
Especially the teams that are the favorites to win the championship.
The current legendary group has become one of the must-have business cards for domestic CSGO youth training and professional players.
It can be said that once you enter the legendary group.
You are eligible to go to any domestic CSGO professional team for trial training.
This situation was brought about by Perfect World.
If it weren't for a certain boss of Tianlu who refused to deal with Lu Yiming, it can be said that all domestic CSGO teams have signed on Lu Yiming's platform.
certainly.
Cooperation is already being discussed.
At this time, there was a cleanup going on inside Tianlu.
ZFF intends to wholly own Tianlu.
The news Lu Zhen brought to Lu Yiming was that Tianlu would join the Perfect National E-sports platform by March next year at the latest, so that all domestic teams would be integrated.
Subsequent e-sports projects can be easily launched.
The live broadcast ended that night.
Lu Yiming received a call from Jiang Yuanming.
At this time, Jiang Yuanming was at the door of NAVI Club.
It's snowing heavily outside.
Wrap up tightly in your down jacket and get in the car quickly.
Jiang Yuanming said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu! The other party insists on thirty and won't let go! Even if I pay an extra million dollars, the other party is only willing to transfer an additional 5%."
The current valuation of the NAVI team is indeed $10 million.
But it still depends on the specific operating conditions. If the operating conditions are good, there will be a certain premium. On the contrary, if the operations are very poor and the internal finance cannot make ends meet, a project valued at 10 million U.S. dollars may cost 500 U.S. dollars to 8 million U.S. dollars. You can get it.
NAVI is a well-run team.
This year's net profit for the entire year is more than two million dollars.
As long as the boss is not stupid, he will not sell his shares easily.
Hearing this, Lu Yiming smiled and said: "It's okay! Thirty-five, just thirty-five! Thank you for your hard work! Come back after signing the contract!"
Jiang Yuanming felt warm in his heart when he heard this.
Then he took out a business card from his pocket.
He immediately continued: "There is also good news! The big boss of NAVI only holds 84% of the shares of this team. Today I met another shareholder who gave me a business card, saying that he holds 16%. If you are interested, let me contact him tonight to find a place to talk!”
Hear this.
Lu Yiming raised his eyebrows.
If we win this 16%.
NAVI can be said to have the surname Lu.
"Let's talk! But be careful! Find a place and ask him out!"
People need to be careful when traveling abroad.
Lu Yiming also has a shadow over foreign countries.
Then the two discussed some details.
Domestic time is 10pm.
But in Moscow it’s five o’clock in the afternoon.
Jiang Yuanming contacted the other party according to the phone number on the business card.
Choose to meet at the coffee shop downstairs of your hotel.
The price quoted by the other party was also quite harsh.
When the accompanying translator told me that the 16% stake would cost 5 million dollars.
Jiang Yuanming looked at the translator with an unchanged expression and said, "Three million dollars! If I can, I can sign the contract tomorrow afternoon!"
In the morning, I made an appointment with the boss of NAVI to trade the 35% for 6 million dollars.
Jiang Yuanming was worried that this was a trap.
Therefore, before the 35% equity is obtained.
Wouldn't trade with this guy.
After the other party hears the translation.
He shook his head and said: "Sir! You have to know! My 16% is a very critical share! If you own it, you will have absolute say in the NAVI team! Don't you want to completely control this team?"
Very difficult to speak Chinese.
After all, the two countries are bordering each other.
Jiang Yuanming didn't find it strange that the other party could speak Chinese.
Hearing this, he smiled and said: "You may be mistaken! Our boss has no intention of intervening in the management of this team. Whether your share is 16% or 14%, it will not affect our relationship." How much you value the shares you hold.”
For companies that are not listed.
Fifty-one percent can be said to be an absolute controlling share.
But Lu Yiming's instructions were not to pay too much attention to these shares.
He had no intention of getting involved in the management of the team.
For a professional team, the players account for 60%, and the remaining 40% is the management team. What Lu Yiming wants is a team that can win the championship at the beginning of the year.
It is clear.
The other party is aware of the importance of the shares in their hands.
The sky-high price of five million dollars was offered for 16% of the shares.
At this time, he looked at Jiang Yuanming's expression.
After a while, he said: "This is really a pity! So let's stop talking today!"
When the other party stood up to say goodbye.
His eyes were observing Jiang Yuanming's expression.
But it's a pity.
With Lu Yiming's instructions.
Jiang Yuanming didn't have much favorable impression of this man with a big mouth like a lion.
But he also kept a polite smile.
Watching him walk out of the coffee shop.
Early the next morning.
Jiang Yuanming came to NAVI Club again.
Compared to yesterday.
Today's NAVI boss received him with significantly more enthusiasm.
Come to the conference room.
The boss of NAVI asked his assistant to come up with two contracts.
One portion was agreed upon yesterday.
The price of $6 million was 35% off.
The other portion is $8 million.
The shares increased from thirty-five to forty-nine.
When Jiang Yuanming looked at the contract.
The boss of NAVI smiled and said: "Thank you very much for being optimistic about the NAVI team! We really need a strong investor. If you can promise not to interfere in the management of the team, then I believe that the second contract can meet the needs of both of us!" "
Jiang Yuanming is leading a first-level translator.
Basically there is no mis-wearing.
It was almost the boss of NAVI who was speaking, and she was translating simultaneously in a low voice.
He was accompanied by a professional lawyer.
It was introduced by Zhang Wei Law Firm.
At this time, Jiang Yuanming also pointed out the differences between the two contracts.
For example, this $8 million contract has the additional clause that he cannot participate in the specific management of the team.
Combine these messages.
Jiang Yuanming looked up at the boss of NAVI and said: "For eight million dollars, I need to ask my boss for instructions, but the premise is that this clause must be removed from the contract. We can not use this right! But we cannot be restricted from using this right! In fact, if your Fang has 51%, even without this one, otherwise we would rather only have 35%!"
According to the previous contract.
Lu Yiming purchased 35% of the team's shares for $6 million.
Among them, 350,000 dollars must be used as team funds.
It's similar to the capital reserve Lu Yiming had done before.
This money can only be used for the development of the team.
The remaining $2.5 million is what the boss can pocket.
It is clear.
The shareholder yesterday was probably used by the boss to test them.
Hear this.
The NAVI boss thought for a while.
CSGO's e-sports business has been developing for so many years. In fact, making money has only been a matter of these few years. This share sale is also to make a big profit.
If the other party can agree to this.
This means that 51% of his holdings can continue to be sold.
Don't worry about losing control of NAVI.
Jiang Yuanming was not the first person to come and talk to him about acquiring shares.
But he was the only one who could pay the price he wanted.
Of those left.
I basically flipped the table and left after hearing his quote.
They all hope to trade with an estimated market value of less than $10 million.
at this time.
He looked up at Jiang Yuanming and said: "We have signed two advertising contracts this year, and the revenue has reached two million dollars. The current world-wide e-sports soil has been cultivated quite well. I think you have also taken a fancy to this. So. ! Both of us take a step back! I can remove this condition from the contract, but the price will be increased from eight million dollars to ten million dollars, and I personally will get six million dollars out of the ten million dollars!"
at this time.
Jiang Yuanming also came to his senses.
After the translator finished narrating his words simultaneously.
He immediately smiled and said, "You seem to be short of money?"
Jiang Yuanming's first day here.
The other party directly stated that the currency must be a knife to continue the negotiation.
So far, the two sides have held talks a total of four times.
This boss is very concerned about how much money he takes.
After the translator conveyed his words.
The boss of NAVI shrugged: "Who doesn't like money?"
Negotiation is a tug-and-pull process.
Each side has its own bottom line.
Then the conversation continued into the afternoon.
Jiang Yuanming called Lu Yiming.
at this time.
It’s only eight o’clock in the morning domestic time.
"Mr. Lu! The contract has been changed. We can get 45% of the shares for 8 million, but he has to take 6 million of it."
Forty-five percent and 49 percent.
It can be said that there is no difference.
If only I could save two million dollars.
This is a great achievement in Jiang Yuanming's opinion.
Then he told the entire process of today's negotiation in a few words.
One thing to say.
Taking 49% of the 10 million, Lu Yiming felt that this business could be done.
Jiang Yuanming's gaze is focused on the present.
This price is actually on the high side, but Lu Yiming’s eyes are on the future, so this price can be said to be a free pick.
certainly.
It's not entirely without risk.
Maybe the team will be drawn again in the future.
For e-sports teams.
It is nothing without achievements.
Hearing this, Lu Yiming said in a deep voice: "Keep talking! Ten million dollars and forty-nine percent is fine! But the premise is that the members of the current team must be deeply bound to the team, and their contracts must at least be guaranteed to last for 25 years. As long as If he can do this, I can let him take away 6 million dollars, and even the expenses incurred in doing this can be deducted from the remaining 4 million dollars!"
Lu Yiming believes that this request is not a problem.
In fact, Lu Yiming also ignored a problem.
What he gave was actually his own lower limit.
But what Jiang Yuanming understood was the upper limit.
soon.
It was while he was having lunch that Jiang Yuanming wrote back.
Ten million was not used.
Still $8 million.
The other party agreed to Lu Yiming's conditions and took a step back and only took away four million US dollars.
That means yes.
The team still has 4 million U.S. dollars in funds. At the same time, the players' contracts will be extended to the 25 years requested by Lu Yiming with this money. The NAVI boss successfully cashed in 4 million U.S. dollars.
This $8 million is not just shares.
It also includes some cooperation matters proposed by Jiang Yuanming at the beginning.
For example, all members of NAVI will be the spokespersons of the platform in overseas markets.
At the same time, we also received live broadcast contracts for several people from 2020 onwards.
Just the team itself.
It's not worth the high price Lu Yiming paid.
The signing of the contract will have to wait until the Navi boss resolves the player contract issue.
But it won't take long.
Faced with the sudden salary increase, all NAVI employees readily signed new contracts.
It was also the moment when the new contract was signed.
They knew the team had an extra boss.
"Hey~ Senpo! How much has your salary increased! Haha! I got a 30% increase! The new boss is so happy!"
The one who spoke was Electronic Brother.
Wen Shengsen closed the contract in his hand expressionlessly.
Said the electronic brother, pushing away Minato who was too close.
"It's all the same! But don't be too happy. The contract says that if the results are not satisfactory, the new boss has the right to terminate the contract without liability!"
Hear this.
The electronic guy laughed.
Although they have no initiative in this contract, if their performance is too poor, they will face termination without liability.
But CSGO players are used to having to change clubs frequently. Faced with a contract with a salary that is 30% higher than the current level, they have no reason to reject this contract.
At this time, Brother Electronic patted Sen Po on the shoulder and said, "What are you afraid of! It's normal for you to leave if you don't get good grades! What should I say! Find a place to have a drink tonight to celebrate? I'll treat you to pay for it!"
Hear this.
Senpo looked at Brother Electronic with strange eyes.
The latter shrugged and said: "Don't look at me like that! Our 100% increase is not as exaggerated as your 30% increase. I still need a glass of whiskey, right?"
The current NAVI home team plus substitutes has a total of six players.
They are Simple Boy, Electronic Brother, Zeus, Flame Boy, Edward, and Boombl4.
The current total annual salary of these six people is almost one million dollars.
As a CSGO TO1 player, Simple Boy's current net worth is only tens of thousands of dollars a month, which is already the maximum salary in the CSGO professional circle.
One thing to say.
Lu Yiming didn't expect the price to be so cheap.
At first, he thought Senpo had an annual salary of at least one million.
After all, the maximum salary in the current LPL starts at tens of millions.
I saw a tweet before.
The league's Feike annual salary is $6 million.
If you calculate it this way.
One year from Feike is what Sen earns in ten years.
But when you think about it, this is normal.
Currently, it is the capital market that promotes alliances, but it is the betting circle that promotes CSGO.
Mori Po and Electronic Brother were discussing who would treat them to dinner tonight.
Lu Yiming is preparing to leave for the company.
Cao Siyun just called.
It means that ZFF, the boss of Tianlu, comes to visit you.
