Chapter 772: Pick Any Player You Like!

At DGE Club…

Zhang Yuan had a confused expression when he looked at Wu Yue and Manager Lu, who had come to visit him.

What was going on?

He had just returned to Jingzhou with Boss Pei. Wu Yue and Manager Lu arrived before he could even rest his legs.

They were only two hours apart.

Did he have any objections to the cooperation? What could there be that he could not communicate over the phone?

Zhang Yuan was a little confused. However, he had to entertain them since they were already here.

Someone served them tea After leading Wu Yue and Manager Lu to the conference room.

Zhang Yuan was not only the manager of DGE E-Sports Club, but he was also the person-in-charge of Tengda E-Sports. His focus was gradually shifted to the GPL league, and he did not have much time to manage DGE Club’s daily training.

Thus, DGE Club recruited more and more staff. Coach, analyst, team leader, nutritionist, team doctor, brand visual design, photography, creative design, etc.

Now, Zhang Yuan was gradually delegating his work and made only important decisions. He would only briefly ask about the situation of certain things at times.

It was the first time that Wu Yue and Manager Lu had come to DGE Club. One look and they were overwhelmed, it was so much more official than FV club!

They were incomparable no matter whether it was the training environment, the staff allocation, or the spiritual appearance of the entire base.

Wu Yue sipped his tea and said emotionally, “Boss Zhang, I’ve long heard that DGE Club is the most official club in the country and that no other club can compare to it. It really lives up to its reputation after seeing it today.”

“Boss Pei is so forward-thinking about the future of the E-Sports industry. He has brought forward the official process of the domestic E-Sports Club.”

Zhang Yuan smiled. “It’s more like a form of confidence rather than forward-thinking.”

“Actually, most of the clubs know that in order to produce results, the standardization of the management of the clubs is indispensable. Many clubs also want to look like traditional football clubs.”

“However, most of the clubs do not do it very well. At the end of the day, it is because they did not have confidence. That is because the formalization of the clubs meant that they had to invest more money. If they did not have confidence in making profits, they would not be willing to invest. Naturally, the formalization could not be discussed.”

“Boss Pei is actually very optimistic about the future of the E-Sports industry. He is very confident. Naturally, he can spend a lot of money on the club without any worries.”

Wu Yue agreed. “That makes sense!”

“Boss Zhang is also very experienced in the operations of the club. DGE Club is one of the few clubs in the country that can generate profits. It can earn both fame and profit without competing. It’s really admirable.”

“I hope that Boss Zhang can impart some experience in the operations of a club if there’s a chance next time.”

Zhang Yuan smiled and shook his head. “Not at all. Boss Pei was the one who set up the big framework for the club’s operations. I didn’t actually contribute much. I was only in charge of ordering take-out.”

After exchanging some pleasantries, Zhang Yuan said, “Is there a problem with the collaboration which made you come all the way to Jingzhou?”

Wuyue shook his head. “No, no, no, of course there’s no problem with the collaboration.”

“It’s like this, Manager Lu and I discussed how to spend this investment and we would like to buy a few players…”

Wu Yue briefly explained his intentions.

Zhang Yuan nodded after he understood.

It was no wonder that Wu Yue and Manager Lu had come to Jingzhou. Obviously, they had not thought of using this sum of money to buy players previously, and had only thought of it after Boss Pei left.

What’s more, if they wanted to buy players, they had to make a trip to Jingzhou to talk to the bosses of these clubs.

After some consideration, Zhang Yuan said, “How about this? I’ll introduce you to the other clubs. You can talk to them. As for whether they are willing to sell it or not, that will depend on how well you negotiate.”

Tengda was the organizer of GPL. These clubs listened to everything Boss Pei and Tengda said. However, Zhang Yuan did not want to force these clubs to sell people. That would be an abuse of Boss Pei’s influence and would be very inappropriate.

The key still depended on the club’s wishes.

Wu Yue nodded. “Of course!”

Zhang Yuan stood up and brought Wu Yue and Manager Lu to the SHG Club to look for Lin Chang.

They had to start with Lin Chang since he was the one who had started buying IOI players and snatched two or three good saplings from the IOI team.

If Lin Chang was not willing to sell, Zhang Yuan would consider looking for other clubs.

Wu Yue and Manager Lu walked around Ming Yun Villas, looking at the beautiful single villas and the E-Sports Club, their eyes filled with envy.

“Jingzhou has really been turned into a sacred ground for e-sports by Boss Pei. It’s simply prospering day by day. I’m so envious.”

“There are more than ten regular clubs like the DGE Club. How could the GPL league not be good? It looks like IOI really lost.”

“Sigh, it’s a pity that our company is in Shanghai. We can’t move it.”

They arrived at SHG Club in no time.

Zhang Yuan brought Wu Yue and Manager Lu to look for Lin Chang and explained their intentions.

Lin Chang was stunned. “Boss Pei invested in your club? You want to buy IOI players?”

Wu Yue nodded. “That’s right, Boss Lin. Actually, we want to form a stronger team so that we can better compete in the qualifiers. Boss Pei would be able to feel proud when we get a good ranking.”

“Of course, we will definitely pay according to the market transfer price. It would be good enough if you could just sell us one or two players who can play IOI who are not good enough to go on stage.”

Wu Yue knew that Lin Chang was the big boss of Shenhua Corporation and that he had a favor to ask of him. Naturally, he spoke very politely.

Lin Chang smiled. “Hey, don’t stand on the ceremony!”

“We must fully support it since it’s a club that Boss Pei invested in!”

“To be honest, I bought these players to try my luck. I thought that I could dig out and develop them if there were any good seedlings among them.”

“Since it’s a club that Boss Pei invested in, of course there is no problem. Choose whichever player you like!”

“Oh, there are a few other teams as well. I’ll let them bring out their IOI’s players for you to choose from them as well!”

“Of course, we have to respect the players’ personal wishes.”

Wu Yue was a little embarrassed as he quickly said, “No, no, no, I’m just missing two members. There’s no need to mobilize so many people…”

Lin Chang waved his hand. “Don’t be so polite! This is just a small matter to us.”

“I don’t know why Boss Pei invested in your club, but since he invested in it, he must have a special purpose. Anyway, let’s aim for the qualifiers first. The team that Boss Pei invested in must not embarrass Boss Pei!”

Wu Yue was moved.

He knew very well that Boss Lin acted this way mainly because of Boss Pei and had nothing to do with FV Club but it was still very heartwarming.

Lin Chang quickly made a few calls.

Half an hour later, the club leaders arrived with a list in their hands.

Lin Chang summarized all the names and handed them to Wu Yue. “Boss Wu, this is the list of all former IOI professional players. Take a look and choose the strongest players.”

Wu Yue reached out to take it and took a closer look at it with Manager Lu. Both of them looked shocked.

Th-this lineup was too magnificent!

FV Club knew the famous IOI players’ IDs by heart since they focused only on IOI.

There were celebrity players from veteran IOI clubs like SUG on the list. It might not be an entire team, but there were players from every position. They could completely piece a top team together in each position.

Wu Yue looked at Lin Chang and the other club leaders. “I’m afraid we can’t afford these players with their value…”

Lin Chang smiled. “You’re treating me like an outsider. You can choose whoever you like! We didn’t spend much money on these players anyway. Just treat it as a gift to the club that Boss Pei invested in!”
