Although Summit Internet Cafe was the top internet cafe in Shanghai, its business was not as good as it was today.
Today was an exception.
Because it was Friday.
More than half a year ago, the boss of Summit Internet Cafe, who was also the boss of the main branch manager, Xu Jian, had made the decision to sign a business cooperation contract with a professional club in the LSPL region. According to the contract agreement, the club would send players to Summit Internet Cafe to do business activities every weekend.
In fact, it was just an exhibition match, an interactive friendly match, and so on.
It was just like how other internet cafes would also hire some expert players to attract popularity. However, although it was the same principle, Summit Internet Cafe was much more generous.
They would only hire some passerby experts. At most, they would be retired former professional players.
Note that they were "former" professional players.
However, Pinnacle Internet Cafe was different. Their business partner was an actual professional team!
The ones they had invited were all real players in service, famous players who could be seen on the official Pro League livestreams!
Their nature was immediately raised to a higher level.
Therefore, although Summit Internet Cafe's big boss had spent a lot of money to reach a cooperation agreement with this LSPL team, the effect was immediate.
On the first weekend after Summit Internet Cafe put up the promotional poster, the internet cafe's business exploded almost instantly. Its daily turnover had doubled from the past!
Even every weekend after that, their internet cafe's business would usher in a gratifying growth peak.
After all, who didn't want to have intimate contact with those professional players?
Xu Jian smiled as he thought about it.
After all, their big boss was influential enough. Even if an ordinary person had money, they wouldn't be able to easily get in touch with the professional teams in the LSPL.
Furthermore, tonight was different from the usual weekend.
Usually, the professional clubs would only send Team Two or even substitute players. That was because the main members of Team One had to be busy playing competitions. Naturally, they wouldn't have time to come to the internet cafe for offline activities.
However, this weekend …
Tonight …
It was the LSPL team's true main force team that was about to arrive!
Xu Jian couldn't help but be in high spirits at this thought. He was beaming with joy —
This was truly a rare occurrence.
Great news!
Although Pinnacle Internet Cafe had signed a business agreement with them, the number of times that their main team members had performed in their internet cafe could be counted on one hand.
This time, it seemed that the curtains had almost fallen on the local server S6 LSPL competition. The club that the team belonged to had secured tenth place this year and successfully avoided relegation. Without any pressure, the atmosphere in the club was joyous and relaxed. There were no more training tasks, and everyone was on vacation. Hence, the Pinnacle Internet Cafe had the opportunity to welcome the main members of the other team again.
However …
It was said that among the five members of the other team, there were only two members of the first team. The other three were members of the second team.
But that didn't matter!
Xu Jian was extremely happy. He was very satisfied. Being able to get two first-tier professional players in the LSPL league was enough to raise the reputation of the Summit Internet Cafe to another level in the circle. Moreover, the second team members of the other three teams were not bad either.
…
He lowered his head to look at the time on his watch. It was almost seven o 'clock.
According to normal practice, seven o 'clock should be the time for the Pinnacle Internet Cafe's exhibition match and arena challenge. However, he hadn't seen the other team members yet.
Xu Jian didn't care.
They were professional players.
After all, they had to have some style.
It didn't matter if they were a little late. After all, they could play two matches in the exhibition match. As for the arena challenge …
The branch manager of the Pinnacle Internet Cafe shook his head and felt a little regretful.
According to the rules, they had invited the players of the LSPL team to guard the arena. They had to set a threshold for the challengers to sign up. A deposit of 2,000 yuan was required for the 5v5 battle. Otherwise, if there was no threshold at all, everyone would swarm in. That would definitely not work.
However, once the threshold was set, almost no challengers would come.
Actually, it was normal.
After all, the players in charge of guarding the arena were the professional players of the active LSPL team. How could a few random people form a team to challenge the arena?
Of course, it was unrealistic.
The customers in the internet cafe were naturally not stupid. They wouldn't take the initiative to give money to the internet cafe knowing that they would lose.
However, speaking of which …
Xu Jian had heard some news and gossip in the circle over the past two days.
There seemed to be a few students from unknown universities who were using the name 'Internet Bull Internet Cafe' to challenge the internet cafes in the circle of Shanghai. They had even defeated many of the resident teams of the internet cafes, earned a lot of arena prize money, and fled far away.
It was said that many internet cafes had fallen in the hands of these students.
Internet Bull Internet Cafe?
Xu Jian raised his eyebrows slightly.
He seemed to have heard of such a name. They had won the first prize in the 'Battle Cup' Internet Cafe round robin challenge. If they were the same team, they would definitely be quite capable.
However, that was all.
Even though he had heard about the achievements of the Internet Bull Internet Cafe team from his peers in the circle, Xu Jian had no intention of taking them seriously.
It was nothing more than a small skirmish.
Back then, the top internet cafes in Shanghai, including Summit Internet Cafe, didn't participate in the Battle Cup. They didn't think much of it at all. Moreover, even though the Internet Bull Internet Cafe team had been winning all the battles, they had only challenged small and medium-sized internet cafes.
Xu Jian revealed a hint of arrogance.
Pinnacle Internet Cafe had a genuine LSPL professional team in charge. Compared to those small internet cafes, it was many levels higher.
What's more, among the Gods that had come tonight, two of them were true first-team main roster players.
When he thought of this, Xu Jian smiled again.
In that case …
He was really starting to hope that the students of the Internet Bull Internet Cafe team would come to Summit Internet Cafe to challenge them tonight.
As long as those students dared to come …
He would make sure that they wouldn't be able to return!
He could also earn a registration fee of 2,000 yuan at the same time ~
Just as Xu Jian was in a good mood, Lin Feng and the others alighted from a taxi outside the Summit Internet Cafe. Ceng Rui nodded as he looked up at the eye-catching, high-end signboard. "That's right, Lin Feng.
"This is the place."
Dou Zi also looked at the signboard. She was a little surprised.
"It's quite high-end."
"It's indeed a top-notch internet cafe. It's so different from those small internet cafes. It's much grander than the ones we've smashed before!"
Tang Bingyao gave her objective evaluation.
"They should be rich too."
Lin Feng lowered his head and looked at the new name list from Qian Lu. He tried hard to find the name 'Summit Internet Cafe' on the list. Then, he looked up with sparkling eyes.
"Oh."
"This one has 10,000 yuan!"
"Smash it!"
