Losing Money to Be a Tycoon Chapter 903

Chapter 903 - Zhao Xuming And Finger Games Roping In

February 18th, Saturday…

Shanghai, FV E-Sports Club.

The team members had just woken up in the morning.

They began to train in high-end Rank after eating Fish-Catching Take-Out. There would be training competitions in the afternoon and evening according to the schedule.

It had been nearly a month since they won IOI’s global finals. During this period, FV E-Sports Club’s fate had also changed.

First of all, everyone had been forced by Boss Pei to return to the United States for a seven-day tour to relax.

During this period, Wu Yue brought his team members to visit a few veteran clubs in the United States to exchange, visit, and learn.

However, it did not seem to have a good effect. Many players were a little disappointed because these clubs did not seem to be as formal nor as proper as GPL clubs.

However, it was not bad as a small interlude on the journey.

Ever since he returned to China, Wu Yue has been busy with various business endorsements, including some digital products, beverages, sponsorships from foreign manufacturers, and some investors’ intention to invest.

FV Club had also gone from an unknown small club to a popular club. Its valuation had increased explosively.

Wu Yue still had a small portion of FV Club’s shares in his hands. He had earned quite a bit this time.

Initially, Wu Yue had only set up FV Club for fun. It was purely burning money. He had not expected to get anything from E-Sports.

However, he did not expect that everything would change because of Boss Pei’s arrival in Shanghai a few months ago.

Wu Yue had no complaints at all even though he had given most of the club shares to Boss Pei. That was because he would definitely not be able to bring the club to its current height with his own strength if he continued to hold the club in his hands!

What’s more, Wu Yue had not only obtained wealth, but also fame. He had achieved his dream of playing eSports, allowing his team members to win the championship in the international competition. To him, it was a state where he could wake up from his dreams laughing.

Of course, Wu Yue knew that Boss Pei would definitely earn more as a major shareholder of FV Club.

However, Wu Yue would not feel any jealousy at all. That was because such achievements were easily achieved without any difficulty with Boss Pei’s ability.

This bit of income was definitely nothing compared to the income of Boss Pei’s other industries. It was not worth mentioning, right? Boss Pei probably would not take this bit of money to heart.

Wu Yue also changed the club’s training base so that Team One and Team Two could have a better living and training environment after the club obtained a large sum of sponsorship and made money.

He specially chose a villa with Fish-Catching Take-Out and Deposit Fitness nearby. He wanted all conditions to be as similar as possible since the situation with GPL had proven that this was the best training model.

What’s more, Tengda Corporation’s businesses were expanding towards Beijing and Shanghai recently. Fish-Catching Take-Out, Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, and Deposit Fitness had all been opened, making it much easier for Wu Yue to choose a location.

There was an endless stream of teams looking for FV Team to play mock competitions after they won the championship.

That was because FV Team represented the highest level of standard in the entire IOI industry. They were the best in terms of tactics and individual strength. It was the most helpful to train with such teams.

What’s more, not only FV Team One, but FV Team Two and even Ding Gan’s SUG Team were basically filled scheduled with the mock competition.

The mock competition with FV Team One’s was too difficult to arrange. There were only two or three matches a day, so many clubs turned their attention to FV Team Two and SUG.

These two teams were FV Team’s sparring partners during the international competition. Their strength definitely could not be underestimated!

They must have grasped some tactical details of FV Team, and their various playstyles would definitely be closer to FV Team. In addition, their individual strength was still alright, and it would be very effective to train with them as well.

Many people even felt that SUG Team and FV Team Two’s true strength might be slightly stronger than IOI’s runner-up team in the global finals.

Wu Yue did not refuse either. FV Club still had to mix in IOI’s e-sports circle after all. They could not completely seal themselves off and not communicate with the outside world.

The global finals had already ended. There would definitely be a huge change in the entire game version. The tactics that FV Team currently had would most likely be eliminated by the next version.

Thus, there was no need to keep it themselves.

Actually, Wu Yue had not thought very well about FV Club’s future development.

Boss Pei had not called him at all ever since they won the championship.

Wu Yue did not know what Boss Pei’s true attitude was.

The management of the club also held a meeting.

Manager Lu felt that Boss Pei’s GOG and IOI were direct competitors. What’s more, FV Club had stepped on Finger Games’ and Long Yu Corporation’s toes to win the international competition this time. He was afraid that they would be making things difficult for them in the future.

Since that was the case, they might as well switch the entire club to play GOG!

The team that won the world championship switched to another game after obtaining the trophy. How would Finger Games survive then?

However, Wu Yue felt that this was very inappropriate.

Firstly, FV Club and Tengda had a relationship of interest. Like DGE, they could not participate in GOG’s official competition in principle unless Boss Pei’s shares were removed. That was obviously not appropriate.

Secondly, FV Club had just accepted many sponsorships and endorsements, including the live-stream contracts of the members. All of this money was earned with the identity of “IOI World Finals Champion”. It was not good to to abandon them immediately;

Thirdly, the members of FV Club obviously preferred IOI. It was very irresponsible to ask them to go back and play GOG.

Thus, Wu Yue decided to put this problem aside for the time being and maintain the status quo while waiting for Boss Pei’s further instructions.

Wu Yue was looking at his team members’ training when his phone suddenly rang.

Wu Yue was stunned when he saw the caller ID.

It was Long Yu Corporation’s Zhao Xuming!

Wu Yue had not spoken to Zhao Xuming for a long time. This was the first time since FV Team won the championship. FV Team would have to deal with Long Yu Corporation if they wanted to continue working in IOI’s E-Sports circle even though he did not know what Zhao Xuming’s intentions were. Therefore, Wu Yue picked up the phone immediately.

Zhao Xuming’s friendly voice came from the other end of the line. “Boss Wu, how have you been! Is there any problem with our champion team’s daily training?”

Zhao Xuming took the initiative to express his goodwill. Wu Yue naturally did not need to take the previous discord to heart. He smiled and said, “Thanks to Boss Zhao, everything is fine with the club.”

Zhao Xuming grinned. “That’s good.”

“I heard that FV’s two teams have been playing mock competitions with other clubs domestically? And the training has been quite good?”

“Boss Wu is a person who doesn’t forget the well-diggers when you drink from this well even after taking down the world championship. You did not forget to improve with our domestic brothers. I really admire your mentality. Boss Wu can be said to be the outstanding representative of the local E-Sports!”

Wu Yue smiled. “Boss Zhao, you must be joking. This is our duty.”

Both sides exchanged a few pleasantries and tacitly did not mention their previous unhappiness. The atmosphere was very harmonious.

Zhao Xuming obviously felt that he was done being polite. He changed the topic. “Boss Wu, I called today mainly for two things. The first is that Finger Games is already preparing to arrange the champion skins for your team.”

“You are the first global finals champion after all. The skin must be outstanding enough! We’ve communicated with Finger Games to get them to add more Chinese elements to cater to the players in the local server!”

“The designers of Finger Games have already rushed over from the United States, so please find a time to bring the five main players to my place. Communicate with the designers and give their opinions on the design of the champion’s skin.”

“The second thing is about the IOI Professional League. Currently, the local Professional League is named ICL, IOI Champion League! I specially requested this name from Finger Games because FV Team is the world champion team. The competition zone must be called the championship zone!”

“As for this ICL quota… Of course, one of the quotas is directly given to FV Team. In addition, we have prepared a place for FV’s second team in the A-Level Competition.”

“At the moment, the league is in the midst of active preparation. There will be a large number of publicity activities. I hope that Boss Wu can fully support and cooperate.”

Wu Yue could not help but feel emotional. Zhao Xuming seemed to have become a completely different person. Previously, he had been cold and indifferent to Wu Yue. Now, he has become extremely friendly to Wu Yue. They were even closer than real brothers.

Of course, Wu Yue also knew that this was human nature. Zhao Xuming could put down his pride to settle with FV Club. This showed that Zhao Xuming was a mature leader who knew not to influence normal workflow with his personal grudges.

Zhao Xuming hints of reluctance might still be present in his speech but he had already done his best with his attitude.

Wu Yue naturally understood this reluctance very well.

FV Club was a club that could not be controlled to Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation. There was a natural conflict of interest. However, they had won the first global finals. Both parties had to cooperate.

It was better to cooperate openly and honestly than to be hesitant and awkward.

Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation also needed FV Club’s influence in the country to help them further promote IOI’s local server after all.

There were no eternal enemies since they were all adults. There were only eternal interests. If they could ease the relationship, they would. There was no need to make things awkward.

Wu Yue immediately agreed. “Alright, Boss Zhao, no problem. This is our club’s duty. We will definitely cooperate.”

Zhao Xuming was very happy. “Thank you, Boss Wu! There was some unhappiness between us previously. I hope that Boss Wu will be magnanimous and not take it to heart.”

Wu Yue immediately followed suit. “Boss Zhao, you’re being too serious. It was just a small conflict. Let bygones be bygones.”

The two ended the call harmoniously.

However, the smile on Wu Yue’s face disappeared the moment he hung up. Then, he called Boss Pei.

He had to report this to Boss Pei as soon as possible!

Zhao Xuming’s intention to rope him in was obvious. This was definitely not his own decision. Longyu Corporation and Finger Games’ higher-ups must have been behind it.

Should he reject or accept all of this?

Wu Yue felt that this might affect Boss Pei’s entire plan. He had to call to confirm Boss Pei’s true attitude.
