Chapter 247 Event Broadcasting Rights

According to the contract signed by Jian Xiaohao and the others, the competition bonus is shared equally with the club. In other words, the company can divide the 50 bonus into 25.

The remaining 25 will be divided between the players and coaches. If there are more players, the coaches will get less.

There will be about [-] players, and the coach will get about [-].

It doesn't seem like a lot, but it also depends on the scale of the competition. If you change it to the champion of the World Championship, it will be completely different. Half of the championship prize of 500 million US dollars is 250 million US dollars.

$45 each.

It's almost 300 million yuan in RMB. Even after deducting taxes, it's still more than 200 million yuan. It can definitely be regarded as getting rich overnight.

Except for the DM team, no game club would choose such a high share. At most, they would share more when the bonus is small. If the bonus is too large, the club will definitely take the majority.

The reason why Li Chenyang wrote all this into the contract is that he doesn't care about the income in this area. He uses profit sharing to allow players to pay more attention when playing games. After all, the bonus is his own and the bonus belongs to the club. It's completely Not a concept.

What Li Chenyang really values ​​is the commercial value of the players themselves.

In this regard.

He will not be soft.

He runs a company, not a charity, and he will not only consider the players but not the company's own development.

For example, the current DM team, which is rapidly rising in the professional arena, may attract some brands to look for them to endorse or advertise.

The club will definitely take the lion's share of these.

There is also the anchor contract, which is the most important. Judging from the current development, Jian Xiaohao and the others will definitely be top star players in the future.

Their live broadcast contracts can easily cost tens of millions in signing fees, not to mention other daily benefits.

These are where the club makes money. As for bonuses, they can even be ignored in front of the former.

If the commercial value of the players is developed, Li Chenyang doesn't care at all even if he doesn't take a penny of the bonus and gives it all to the players.

Of course, that's not now!

In the early days, the DM team had been operating at a loss and paid out hundreds of thousands in wages. Now it can make a fortune by relying on the bonus share.

There was a lot of discussion in the e-sports room.

After the game ended, the power coaches were still chatting about the previous topic. Some people even took out their mobile phones to make calls, as if they were announcing the good news to their friends.

Li Chenyang watched the live broadcast on the big screen.

He got up and went to the DM team's exclusive small room, lay down on the recliner purchased by Jin Xin, took out his mobile phone and called Abu.

"Good job!"

He said.

"Boss, did you watch the game?"

Abu is also very happy.

Li Chenyang smiled and said: "Yes, it's not just me, all the power coaches in the power leveling house are watching the live broadcast together. Three to zero, it is very beautiful. You will be their idols when you come back."

This is really no exaggeration.

Jian Xiaohao and the others are making a splash in the professional arena. When they come back, the gap between them and these power coaches will become wider and wider.

"Fortunately, I have been playing steadily and without any accidents. The tactics taught by my boss are still reliable."

Hear this.

Li Chenyang shook his head and said, "Stop flattering me. I have something I want to leave to you."

"Boss, what's the matter?"

Abu's voice became serious.

Li Chenyang said: "I am here at the game. Let's see if we can contact the organizer. We can buy the broadcast rights for the official LOL events, even if it is not an exclusive broadcast."

"Boss, isn't it just broadcast casually now? Do you still need to buy it?"

Abu hesitated for a while.

He was worried that his boss didn't quite understand this.

Li Chenyang said: "Of course I know that you can broadcast it casually now, and there are piracy everywhere on the Internet, but what if Riot Games pays attention to copyright protection in the future, take advantage of the current advantage to get the authorization, and then put all the games in the video area of ​​the power training home Here, it will save you trouble in the future."

"Okay, boss, let me ask you a question."

"For now, don't worry, you can celebrate too." "I know."

Sioux City, game scene.

When Abu hung up the phone, he saw Nuoyan and the others waving to him.

He walked up quickly.

The trophy was going to be awarded, and he, the coach, had to be there too.

"The boss just called and said that everyone in the company has finished watching your game just now." Abu came over and said with a smile.

When Jian Xiaohao heard this, he exaggeratedly said: "Then in the company, we will become stars."

"You are already a star now, okay?"

Abu patted him on the shoulder.

After this competition, their popularity may not be as good as last year's Galaxy Team WE, but in terms of the number of fans, they are definitely far ahead of other teams.

Perhaps only OMG with all the handsome guys can barely compete with them.

However, OMG was still defeated in the end.

It can't pose much of a threat to them yet.

"Crack!"

Several members of the team held the championship trophy in their hands and faced the cameras with smiles on their faces.

This championship is the beginning of the DM team, but it is not the end of them.

Abu did not forget his boss's instructions.

After taking photos, he found the head of the competition committee.

When arranging the competition before, Abramovich had contacted each other, so they were considered acquaintances.

"Director Chen, please excuse me for a few minutes."

Abramovich is very careful about Riot's domestic person in charge. He has great authority and is responsible for almost all domestic affairs. Although Tencent is now the boss and has acquired Riot's shares, in terms of management rights, they temporarily I can't get my hands on it yet.

Chen Song looked at Abu and said in surprise: "You are DM's coach, right? I remember you. You guys performed very well today. You deserve this championship."

This is the advantage of being a champion, it always makes people look at you differently.

"Thank you very much for the compliment, Mr. Chen. This is the result of the hard work of the players. They love the game League of Legends very much."

Abu speaks very appropriately.

Chen Song smiled and was very satisfied with the answer. He asked, "What do you want?"

"Is such that."

Abu organized his language and then said: "Our boss used to be a LOL teaching blogger. His videos were very popular and made many people know about this game. Our boss would like to ask you if you can broadcast the LOL event." Authorize him, I would like to ask how much money it would cost to get your authorization..."

"Your boss is Xiaoguang, right? I've seen his videos. He is a young man who has a very deep understanding of the game. It seems that he also attaches great importance to copyright. TGA competition videos are everywhere on the Internet. He is still the first Someone who comes here and asks for authorization for me is not bad, not bad."

After Chen Song finished speaking, he thought for a while and said, "As long as it is not an exclusive license, there is no problem. The license fee is about 50."

50 is exactly the championship prize for this competition.

Chen Song said this number somewhat jokingly.

He is very familiar with the domestic environment. There is almost no difference between having and not having video copyrights. Not to mention game competitions, even the NBA and theater movies can be seen everywhere online.

Abu looked happy and said, "Okay, Mr. Chen, can you leave me your contact information? I will convey your words to my boss. If he nods, I will ask you to sign the contract."

Chen Song took a business card out of the drawer and reminded him.

"I'm in Sioux City and will stay for three more days. You have to hurry up."

"In less than three days, I will contact our boss soon."

In fact, it didn't take three days at all. After participating in the interview at the end of the game, Abu called Li Chenyang back to the hotel.

Li Chenyang agreed to the price of 50 without even thinking about it. However, when signing the contract, he reminded Abramovich that he would be authorized to compete in all subsequent matches.

With Li Chenyang's instruction, Abu went to Chen Song early the next morning and signed the contract. Their DM Game Club became the first company in China to obtain the rights to broadcast the event.
