Last Saturday, the Management Trainee meeting was held as usual.
However, there was nothing worth paying special attention to.
That was because the cycle had just begun, and the development work of the various departments was still in the initial stage. What's more, everyone was basically doing according to Boss Pei's requirements. Thus, there were no signs of profits.
Even if there was a possibility of profits or a joint effort between the various departments, that would only happen in the last month of the cycle.
Thus, Pei Qian was much more relaxed.
Of course, even so, the Management Trainee meeting had to be held as usual. He did not dare to let his guard down.
It was Monday, and Pei Qian planned to make a trip to the DGE Club first.
Old Ma's previous Weibo activities had been average, but the live-stream was very successful. The old members of the DGE Club were crazily attracting followers for him, creating a virtuous cycle. Until now, Old Ma's Weibo was still gaining tens of thousands of followers every day. It was ridiculous.
Fortunately, popularity came and went quickly. The popularity of Old Ma's previous live-stream with the old members of the DGE Club had gradually decreased.
As for Old Ma's fans on Weibo, they were basically greedy for his money. Pei Qian did not feel threatened for the time being.
Thus, Pei Qian planned to completely cut off the connection between Ma Yang and the DGE Club!
If Old Ma saw that his increase in followers had slowed down and went to play an exhibition game with the DGE Club's members as' Coach Ma ', his followers would increase again. There was a huge hidden danger.
He had to think of a way to get rid of the popularity that should not have existed on Old Ma.
Thus, Pei Qian rushed to the DGE Club first and took drastic measures to deal with Old Ma.
…
In the DGE Club, the new ten members had just finished breakfast and were doing custom practice.
This was a reserved part of the DGE Club's training, and it had been proven to be useful. Thus, although it was boring, everyone practiced very seriously.
Zhang Yuan quickly stood up when he saw Boss Pei. "Boss Pei!"
Pei Qian nodded and followed Zhang Yuan to the conference room, not wanting to disturb the members' practice.
"Boss Pei, do you have any instructions for us this time?" Zhang Yuan was a little excited.
More than a month had passed since the international invitational tournament ended. All the clubs had fallen into a state of relative confusion.
Previously, in order to prepare for the International Invitational Tournament, the various clubs had spent a lot of money and poached people. They were also talking about collaborations with the emerging live streaming platforms. It was a scene in full swing.
The International Invitational Tournament did bring a lot of popularity to these clubs, but once the tournament was over, the popularity slowly died down.
The next International Invitational Tournament would be held around this time next year.
Therefore, in the short term, whether it was the players or the club, there was little motivation.
Zhang Yuan was not only in charge of DGE Club's daily training, but he was also the link between the various clubs and Tengda. He was in charge of arranging the club's training and competition schedule.
He could clearly feel that everyone was not particularly focused. They were casually playing mock matches, and the star players were more focused on the live broadcast.
All the other clubs turned a blind eye to this and didn't care too much.
Zhang Yuan felt that there was nothing wrong with relaxing after the competition, but it was a little inappropriate to be so lazy and waste time like this.
But he didn't have a good way to change this.
Did Boss Pei come here today … because of this?
Pei Qian took a sip of tea and said, "I've already told Boss Ma not to look for DGE's players to live broadcast together. Don't affect everyone's daily training."
Zhang Yuan was stunned. "Huh?"
"Er, Boss Pei, actually, this matter doesn't matter. The various clubs don't have any particularly urgent training plans now. The players are going to live broadcast anyway. Bringing Boss Ma along can balance the strength …"
Pei Qian: "?"
Zhang Yuan, whose side are you on?!
Pei Qian's expression became serious. "How can that be? Our club is a formal club. The players have an equal relationship with us. Their task is to play well in the competition, not to play games with the boss.
"Therefore, we have to be strict with ourselves and know our place. We can be managers, but we can't be masters. There is a fundamental difference, understand?"
Zhang Yuan couldn't help but be in awe.
Boss Pei … was he so businesslike?
Was he so strict even with Boss Ma, his right-hand man and best friend?
Strictly speaking, Boss Ma looked for the old players of the DGE Club to play games with him to increase his popularity. It was indeed a bit of a private use of public resources. It was not particularly appropriate.
However, this matter was not that serious on second thought. The players did not take it to heart.
Even so, Boss Pei clearly told Boss Ma not to disturb everyone's daily training. Private friendship was one thing, work was another.
One was another, and the difference was clear!
Zhang Yuan suddenly realized that Boss Pei was setting rules and setting an example for the DGE Club and the entire GOG professional circle!
The domestic esports industry had just started. Many clubs were playthings of the rich second generation, and their management was very irregular. Some players could play games with the boss and have a good relationship. They could always be as stable as Mount Tai. Obviously, this was not a phenomenon that a formal club should have.
On the other hand, Boss Pei was setting an example. Even Boss Ma could not make an exception. There was no doubt that this sent a rather clear signal.
It showed Boss Pei's determination to promote the regularization of the club!
Zhang Yuan could not help but be in awe. "Alright, Boss Pei. I will definitely supervise the club's training and ensure the regularity of the club. I will never let those unimportant things distract the players' attention!"
Pei Qian was stunned, speechless for a moment.
I only said that I would not let the players play games with Old Ma and increase his popularity.
I didn't say anything else!
What do you mean by so many meanings?
Forget it, forget it. The result is the same anyway.
Pei Qian sipped his tea silently.
In fact, he came here today mainly because of Old Ma. He had no other plans.
However, since he was already here, he might as well ask about the situation of the clubs.
At that thought, Pei Qian asked casually, "How is the DGE Club recently? How are the other clubs? "
Pei Qian was just asking casually. After all, the DGE Club and the other clubs could stab each other in the back.
Zhang Yuan perked up.
He's here!
Boss Pei is indeed here to give me some pointers this time!
He knew that Boss Pei had a more far-reaching plan for GOG's entire esports industry. The previous month was just to let everyone relax after watching the international invitational tournament.
Didn't he have a new plan now?
Zhang Yuan quickly sorted out his thoughts and began to report to Boss Pei.
"Boss Pei, the DGE Club is still carrying out daily training according to the previous schedule.
"The ten newly recruited players are quite talented. Although they have not adapted well to the rhythm of the competition, they are playing better and better under the guidance of Huang Wang, Jiang Huan, and the other old players.
"However, too little time has passed. The DGE Club is now at the lower end of all the domestic clubs.
"As for the other clubs, they have fully accepted the DGE Club's work and rest schedule and training methods. Because of the fitness training, the physical fitness of these team members has improved significantly.
"However … the management team of each club is still different after all. We can only ensure that the old players of the DGE Club are not bullied. We cannot interfere with the club's internal affairs.
"Of course, the other clubs will give us some face and not dare to bully our people.
"After the international invitational tournament, the champion and runner-up teams and the core players will definitely receive the most attention. Now, the clubs are playing mock competitions as usual. The rest of the time, the players will live-stream by themselves.
"However … there have not been many competitions recently. Thus, the mock competitions are not very effective. Everyone is playing more casually.
"Live-Stream platforms have been developing very quickly recently. They are offering higher and higher prices to star players who have not signed contracts.
"At the same time, the live-stream platforms and the clubs are also cooperating. Thus, although the clubs are harmonious, the competition for outstanding players is becoming more and more intense."
Pei Qian immediately became alert.
The live-stream platforms were offering higher and higher prices?
The competition for outstanding players was becoming more and more intense?
This was not a sign of optimism!
Pei Qian knew very well that the live-stream platforms would definitely become more popular, and there would be more and more users. With more hot money, the income of the streamers would definitely increase as well.
The players of the esports clubs were obviously of a higher level than all the game streamers.
Apart from a few streamers with obvious personal styles and good performances, most viewers still liked to watch the strong.
That was because the spirit of esports was to speak with one's strength. Noobs did not deserve to be applauded.
Then, the clubs would definitely have high commercial value. Whether it was various kinds of sponsorships or commissions from the live-stream platform contracts, there would definitely be profit channels.
The DGE Club was now inexplicably standing at the top of all the clubs. That was the most ridiculous.
Inferring from that, would the live-stream platforms give DGE's players a bigger contract? Give the club more money?
Would more sponsors come knocking on their door?
Would other clubs be more willing to pay more when they came to buy players from DGE?
What if the transfer fee was directly raised to millions or tens of millions? That would be terrible.
The DGE Club was now the holy land in the hearts of many internet addicts. When other clubs bought one player, people would immediately squeeze their heads to enter. Selling one player to earn a sum of money, and selling another to earn another sum of money. There was no end to this.
What's more, the more popular the club became, the more chaotic the environment would become. When investors entered, they would create huge bubbles, and those bubbles would greatly increase the risk of the DGE Club making money.
To most clubs, popularity was a good thing, but to Pei Qian, it was something he could not avoid.
Although it did not seem to be dangerous in the short term, in the long term, such risks had to be prevented.
Pei Qian did not care how much the other clubs earned, but the DGE Club had to earn as little as possible.
However … how could he continue to reduce the DGE Club's income?
He could not go overboard. It would not be appropriate to directly reject all income. He had to do it reasonably.
Or he could change his mindset and think of other ways to spend money. As long as he spent more, it would be equivalent to earning less.
Pei Qian fell into deep thought.
Zhang Yuan was overjoyed. He had appeared. The thinker, Boss Pei!
He did not dare to disturb him and waited patiently for Boss Pei to finish thinking.
Pei Qian thought for a moment and said, "The live-stream platforms are offering higher prices, and the competition between teams is getting more intense. In a sense, this is a good thing. It means that the entire GOG esports circle is gaining more attention.
"However, we have to be careful of the risks behind this.
"The live-stream platforms are offering higher salaries than the clubs. Won't many players focus on live-streaming and not competing?
"The competition between teams is getting more intense. Won't there be some unfair competition and tampering with the contracts?
"This is something we have to be careful of. If we don't do this well, the entire GOG esports environment will be affected.
"I think it's necessary to set up another department to manage the entire GOG esports environment!
