In the afternoon …
Zhang Yuan was very busy at the moment.
Today was November 2nd, Wednesday. Boss Pei only gave them three days. In other words, on Sunday, November 6th, they would officially decide the ownership of all the GPL slots.
Not only did they have to bid for the GOG teams of the three clubs led by SUG and their slots, but they also had to bid for the other six GPL slots.
He had to inform the clubs in advance and arrange the relevant matters within these three days. Time was tight.
However, Zhang Yuan was not the most nervous. It was the companies that were bidding.
That was because Zhang Yuan only needed to arrange the process. The companies that were bidding had to make a decision.
Should they buy the ready-made GOG teams or just the slots?
How much budget should they prepare?
What was the price-quality ratio of different teams?
What was the expected price in mind?
If they did not buy now, what if they wanted to buy in the future?
It would be difficult to think through these questions in just three days.
What's more, some companies had to raise funds in advance and prepare ammunition before they could bid.
Thus, Zhang Yuan was a little worried for the companies that were bidding.
Although he was worried, Boss Pei's decision could not be ambiguous.
Zhang Yuan could only tell all the companies participating in the auction, including the clubs that were 'selling' and the various companies that were preparing to bid, so that they could prepare in advance and make a decision as soon as possible.
As for how much money they could sell for, who would get the GPL slots, and whether new companies would want to enter …
These were not things that Zhang Yuan could control or speculate about.
Boss Pei's plan was too profound and difficult to guess.
Thus, he just had to carry it out seriously.
…
SUG Club …
Manager Li frowned as he looked at Zhang Yuan's new message. He was in a daze.
Boss Pei was not playing by the rules again!
Manager Li's mood had been like a branch on the ocean for the past two days, rising and falling, destroyed.
At first, he had thought that Boss Pei was just so-so.
Slowly, he realized that Boss Pei had signed the contract and thought that Boss Pei was bluffing.
Only now did he realize that Boss Pei was serious! He had already prepared a backup plan!
All the judgments that Manager Li had made previously were based on the judgment that not enough companies would take over, and Tengda would not take over either.
However, Manager Li was shocked to realize that someone was taking over, and there were many of them!
The other three clubs retreated. In an instant, there were ten buyers fighting for three GOG teams.
Moreover, most of these ten buyers had powerful backgrounds!
At this time, Manager Li began to struggle again.
This was because he felt that with this group of big shots bidding for three spots from ten families, they would definitely be able to bid for an astronomical figure.
If he could really sell his GOG team for twenty million yuan, Manager Li felt that he would be able to answer to his boss. After all, the premium was too high, and it would be difficult for his boss to reject it.
As for the matter of entering the arena in the future, that would be another time.
Who knew how far the GPL league could go? What if the popularity gradually declined and the GPL spots became cheaper?
It was not impossible!
Therefore, after the other three clubs retreated, Manager Li consulted his boss and decided to continue selling the SUG division because it could make more money.
In less than half a day, the information changed again.
Boss Pei decided to sell six GPL slots in one go!
Originally, there had been ten buyers buying three GOG teams. Now, there were ten buyers buying three GOG teams and six GPL slots. The competition had become much less intense!
In other words, these GOG teams could not be sold at a high price!
Thus, Manager Li fell into a dilemma. He was completely embarrassed.
If he sold them, he would not be able to sell them at a high price.
If he did not sell them, he would lose three to four million yuan in compensation.
No matter which one it was, it would be difficult to answer to his boss!
Especially the matter of losing the compensation would make him seem too stupid and incompetent. He would be giving Tengda money for nothing.
The three clubs that had retreated had all been decided by their bosses. The club managers would definitely be scolded badly when they returned. They might even be punished.
Manager Li did not want that to happen.
He frowned and gritted his teeth. "Boss Pei is so ruthless …
"Boss Pei has predicted all of my thoughts.
"In order to take revenge on the three clubs, he sold all six GPL slots at once just to lower the price of our GOG teams.
"Is there a need to be so vengeful?"
Now, he was in a difficult position. The best choice was to raise the price as much as possible and sell it at a price that the boss could not refuse. Then, the boss would decide to sell it.
That way, the boss would bear most of the responsibility. In the short term, he would not be too harshly blamed.
After all, Manager Li was just an employee. It was impossible for him to think 100% from the boss' point of view. At such a time, retreating in the face of difficulties would be equivalent to admitting that he was incompetent.
In the E-Sports Clubs that these rich second-generation heirs played, the promotion and salary increases of the management depended on their performance in front of the boss. It did not matter if they made mistakes. The key was how to cover up their mistakes.
At that thought, Manager Li made up his mind.
He could only continue to stir up public opinion!
He would try to sell the GOG teams at a high price to satisfy the boss. He could only think about the future in the future.
Manager Li was also a little wishful thinking. What if he sold them at a high price this time and the GPL did not succeed in the future? What if the slots became less and less valuable?
Wouldn't that be a huge profit?
He would also be able to make his presence known to the boss.
Manager Li guessed that the managers of the other two clubs who were planning to sell basically had the same idea.
They were both riding a tiger and unable to back down, unable to advance or retreat. He could only solve the problem in front of him first and not care about the consequences.
Manager Li quickly called the managers of the other two clubs. He tried to reason with them and moved them emotionally. They agreed to advance and retreat together.
…
On the other side, at Fu Hui Investments …
The investors had just received Zhang Yuan's notice and were a little confused.
They were going to sell the remaining six GPL slots in three days?
What's more, in the next few years, the GPL league slots might be maintained at 16?
At first, when the investors saw that there were only three GOG teams left in a company like Shenhua, they had decided to concentrate their funds to buy only one.
However, now that Boss Pei had released so many GPL slots in one go, Li Shi felt that he could buy two.
However, he was a little confused. Why was Boss Pei so nervous?
In three days, he would sell all the GPL slots for the next few years?
Saving them and selling one every year would be the best choice, right?
Everyone looked at Boss Li.
At this time, they still had to rely on Boss Li to interpret Boss Pei's true intentions.
Boss Li was silent for a moment. "I think … this is a piece of good news that Boss Pei has released for us! We have to raise more funds. This time, we have to get two GPL slots even if we have to sell everything we have! "
The investors were a little confused. "Huh? Why is it another huge benefit? "
In any case, no matter what decision Boss Pei made, it would be a huge benefit to Boss Li.
This time, Boss Pei did not give everyone any special treatment. Why was there another huge benefit?
Li Shi smiled slightly. "Think about these two figures: six GPL slots in three days."
"Doesn't Boss Pei know that selling all the slots one by one would maximize his profits?"
"But why did he sell them all in one go in such a hurry?"
"I think there are at least three reasons for this!"
"First of all, he has to get the news, raise funds, and participate in the auction in three days. This is actually an invisible threshold. In the end, there will only be two types of companies left: one is like us, which has insider information in advance, made preparations in advance, and followed Boss Pei firmly. The other is like Shenhua. The company is huge and does not lack money. It doesn't matter if it's more expensive or cheaper. "
"This will shut out those speculative companies that only want to make a fortune and run away. The rest are capable companies that are willing to cooperate with Boss Pei to do a good job in the GPL league!"
"Secondly, Boss Pei is showing a stance."
"Throwing out all the slots at once shows that Tengda is determined to make the E-Sports industry big. With more teams, more competitions, and more investments, the audience's viewing experience will definitely be the best. "
"This will give all participating clubs a clear signal: the GPL will be a large-scale, formal league with huge investments in the future. Everyone can invest without worry. You will definitely be able to obtain generous returns!"
"At the same time, it will further express Tengda's support for its partners, which is to share the soup with everyone."
"Think about it. If the GPL league slots become more and more valuable according to Boss Pei's expectations, wouldn't we be the first to enter the market in the future if we sell all of them now?"
"At that time, even if more and more capital flows in and our club can't take it anymore, we can transfer it at a high price. We won't lose anything!"
"Finally, I think Boss Pei must have considered creating hype."
"If we only sell three slots, it would only be fifty to sixty million yuan at most. We might not even be able to sell them. However, if we sell them like this now, we can easily reach 100 million yuan! "
"The unit price might be low, but the total price is high!"
"Fifty million yuan and breaking a hundred million yuan are completely different in terms of publicity. Just the concept of 'breaking a hundred million yuan' alone is enough to create hype! "
"This would attract a lot of attention and make the GPL popular before it is even broadcast. How much publicity money would that save?"
"As for whether there are other reasons, I think there must be."
"It's just that I'm not talented enough to guess."
The investors were enlightened. "I understand now. Boss Pei is actually giving us more benefits! He hopes that we can contribute more and make the GPL bigger together? "
Li Shi nodded. "Yes, that must be the case!"
"Therefore, we'll still use the same strategy as before. We'll try to buy two GPL slots! No matter what, we'll buy them first! "
The investors thought about it and realized that it was the same.
If this bidding was three months later, they would indeed have a lot of time to think about it carefully.
However, they only had three days now!
What was there to think about?
This was just like some goods that were sold for a limited time. They would only be sold for three days. If they missed these three days, they would not have such an opportunity for the next few years.
Wouldn't they have to sell everything they had?
