621 Boss Pei's Kindness is Always in My Heart
Did you not listen carefully to what I said?
I'm not raising the price… but helping you lower it! How could you increase it?
No, it seemed like this caused Team Leader Su to have an understanding. He had to quickly clarify.
Pei Qian coughed slightly. "Team Leader Su, I actually didn't mean that.
"What I mean is Huang Wang has now signed with Waiwai. Your club can no longer be able to obtain higher income from the live broadcast platform. Moreover, Huang Wang has live-stream missions, which might affect his usual training."
There should be no ambiguity this time, right? Pei Qian wondered.
What I meant was… if it was a player who had yet to sign a contract, then they could sign with the live-stream companies to make money. However, Huang Wang had signed them already and could no longer obtain any more benefits.
Team Leader Su fell into deep thought again.
Well, on the surface, it seemed as though Boss Pei was picking at Huang Wang again. However, that was all just appearances.
In fact, that should be emphasizing Huang Wang's commercial value?
As a player who was famous in live-streaming, Huang Wang himself had his own traffic and popularity. Waiwai had also invested a lot of publicity resources in him.
Huang Wang had more fans than the entire H4 Club. That was not an exaggeration.
Moreover, if Huang Wang were to transfer from DGE to H4, his fans would inevitably pay attention to the H4 Club. Such attention was a kind of resource.
In addition, the H4 Club and Waiwai's relationship was pretty good as well. Huang Wang would be able to appear in large scale events when he transferred to the H4 Club, Waiwai would definitely be very happy…
Indeed, he had to think about the commercial value of this player. He should even think of a way for Waiwai to pay part of the cost. That was also explained by the club owner before he came over.
"My apologies, Boss Pei. We did not give proper considerations to it again." Team Leader Su said after he considered the factors.
"To express our apologies, we'll offer our final sincere price. Three million yuan transfer price, 1.5 million yuan for signing bonus, and an annual salary of 1.2 million yuan!
"Boss Pei, we are a small club with limited financial resources. This is really the best we can offer!"
Pei Qian nearly spat out his tea.
Team Leader Su, do you understand human language?!
Pei Qian felt very tired.
Reverse bargaining… doubled the signing fee! He could have sold at 1.5 million, but it had become three million now!
It was outrageous for an esports player to be able to sell for so much money now.
Pei Qian felt that this price should only be reached about two to three years later. What should he do? Try to press the price down again?
Forget it, he should not lower the price again. Look at the decisiveness of Team Leader Su and thought about the failed experience from his previous negotiations…
Perhaps if Pei Qian were to say another word, Team Leader Su would use up all their reserves and add on to this price.
"Okay," Pei Qian said with a little melancholy.
Team Leader Su could not help but feel grateful. Boss Pei was really decisive! Team Leader Su could only call his boss to obtain more funds if Boss Pei wanted to add on anymore.
Luckily, he successfully obtained Huang Wang at the upper limit of his budget!
Boss Pei was obviously not very satisfied with the current price looking at Boss Pei's melancholy expression. However, Boss Pei still decided to sell to him. He had to remember this kindness!
Zhang Yuan had been silent as he watched Boss Pei raise the price.
He could not help but sigh silently; Boss Pei was really good at bargaining!
Huang Wang, being damned with faint praise, hinted that he was not only a commander but also a player with huge commercial value. He increased the price to the most suitable position.
Team Leader Su was smart as well. He immediately understood Boss Pei's intention and raised the price.
All in all, it seemed like a very pleasant transaction from the final result!
Zhang Yuan leaned close to Boss Pei and whispered, "Boss Pei, we have to ask Huang Wang for his personal opinion as well."
Pei Qian eased a little from the melancholy mood and nodded. Indeed, they had to ask the player if he was willing after the two clubs reached an agreement.
However, Pei Qian felt that Huang Wang would definitely agree.
His salary had reached this level and his good friend Pang Ling was there in the H4 Club. Both of them played midlane. He would be captain and commander with sufficient voice. Moreover, he could also officially enter competitions…
He could not think of any reason Huang Wang would hesitate?
Let him go through the motion, pack, and go. All three parties would be happy.
Pei Qian nodded. "Alright, let's tell him now."
The two of them got Huang Wang to one side, and Zhang Yuan briefly told him about the transfer.
"That is the current situation. Now it's up to you to see if you want to transfer to the H4 Club."
Pei Qian thought that Huang Wang would agree immediately, but he did not think that Huang Wang would actually hesitate.
"Can I… think it over?" Huang Wang asked.
Pei Qian felt light-headed.
What was there to consider?
Brother, what was so good about the DGE Club that you had to stay?
Pei Qian coughed slightly. "Why, are you dissatisfied with the H4 Club?"
Huang Wang nodded and said in a small voice, "Their environment is really bad."
Pei Qian: "?"
The environment was really bad? Wasn't that a veteran club? How would the environment be bad?
"It's true, Boss Pei, the last time we saw their training base during the mock competition, and it was far worse than our base!" Huang Wang explained.
"No matter whether it was computer equipment, living conditions, daily training schedules, etc., they are all incomparable to ours. The most important thing is that I don't think I can gym every day…"
Huang Wang really cared about this issue from his expression.
Indeed, it was true that he would be able to play in official competitions and his salary would increase. However, Huang Wang—who had already had a two million yuan contract—did not care so much about salary anymore.
The club's supporting facilities and daily training which determined their daily life.
Huang Wang felt that he would definitely be unable to adapt in terms of his lifestyle if he were to go to the H4 Club. There was no way for it to be as comfortable as in the DGE Club whether it was food, housing, or daily gym training.
That was why he hesitated.
Pei Qian was also lost in thought because he had never expected such a problem to occur.
What should he do?
Huang Wang had to go; he would be in endless trouble if he were to stay. Could he think of a way to kill two birds with one stone?
Would he be able to get rid of Huang Wang without taking so much transfer fees?
Pei Qian considered it for a while and suddenly had a eureka moment.
He had an idea!
"This problem is easy to solve, come with me." Pei Qian told Huang Wang and Zhang Yuan.
The three of them returned to the conference room and saw Team Leader Su again.
"Team Leader Su, Huang Wang has no problems with the transfer. However, there will be extra conditions," Pei Qian told Team Leader Su.
"Huang Wang will need to maintain the training schedule and his work-life balance like when he was in the DGE Club. He has to have two hours of professional fitness training every day. You need to find him a full-time fitness coach and nutritionist.
"Other than that, Huang Wang will use the ROF system units and a full set of peripherals that he had been familiar with for his training. I hope you can fully respect his training habits.
"I heard that there are currently two teams in the GOG division of the H4 Club. The original training base is already very crowded. I hope that the H4 Club can find a new training base. It does not need to be too good, but the quality of life for each team member has to be guaranteed.
"Of course, I know that your club's funds are stretched so I've decided that DGE Club will only take 800,000 yuan in transfer fees. The remaining 2.2 million yuan will be used as the cost of improving the training base.
"Your club will only have the right to use this money on behalf of us. You have to ensure that Huang Wang knows where the money is going to ensure that they go to the right places."
"Very grateful, Boss Pei! Much appreciated!" Team Leader Su exclaimed, beside himself with joy.
Team Leader Su intended to keep Huang Wang on his original training schedule even if Boss Pei did not mention it. He even planned for the two teams in the GOG division to train according to it.
Previously, Pang Ling recorded the DGE Club's daily training schedule when they visited the DGE Club, which attracted the attention of the senior management.
The senior management of the H4 Club realized that it could be the reason why the DGE Club was so strong after analyzing it! The approach was very scientific!
The clubs had only paid attention to the training of game skills and ignored the physical fitness of the players for the longest time.
Wouldn't they make a huge loss if they were to purchase Huang Wang but were unable to ensure that he could train the way he did as before which would result in a decline in his performance?
Therefore, Team Leader Su had originally wanted Huang Wang to share DGE's training experience and improve the level of their teams.
However, the funds of the H4 Club were really limited. They really broke their bank signing Huang Wang up this time. To find a new training base in Shanghai where every inch of land cost a bomb, apply fitness memberships for all members, and to order fitness meals for them was something that they really could not support financially.
However, all these problems were now solved due to Boss Pei's generosity!
Team Leader Su knew that Boss Pei could actually ignore this since there would be nothing more to do with him when the players were sold!
However, Boss Pei took the initiative to spend most of the signing fee to improve the environment for his own players where the other members of the H4 Club could follow suit.
Boss Pei really shone too brightly!
Team Leader Sun was so moved. He really owed big time to Boss Pei!
Huang Wang would definitely be treated as the ace of the H4 Club in the future and become its absolute core!
The problem was solved satisfactorily. Pei Qian found a very reasonable reason to return 2.2 million yuan in the signing fee. The pressure on him lifted, and he could not help but feel much better.
The next step would be to negotiate the specific details of the contract. Generally, transferring to another club should only be done during the transfer season.
However, there are no such rules currently.
Moreover, even if there were such rules, it should be stipulated by the organizer—that was Tengda—so the other clubs could only comply with it.
Therefore, this matter was not so serious since both clubs and players agreed. It would be necessary to set the transfer rules for each club after the establishment of the league.
However, that would be a worry for the future to Pei Qian.
