Chapter 1911 Let’s Conquer Busan!

It is normal for different circles to have conflicts.

For example, football fans and basketball fans will quarrel over Ronaldo and James.

Lin Cheng was also inexplicably put at the center of public opinion by netizens because he was selected into the Forbes Elite List this time.

In fact, it is mainly because the e-sports industry is too special.

At present, many people in China still cannot accept this industry.

Until a few years ago, e-sports players were still a group of people who played games without doing their jobs in their eyes.

Now it is found that some of these people who play games are actually earning tens of millions of dollars a year, and even the salaries of e-sports practitioners behind the scenes are not lower than those of ordinary social animals. Naturally, some people will feel unbalanced.

It is normal to make sarcastic remarks when seeing the news.

But fans in the e-sports circle are notoriously irritable.

Faced with unreasonable accusations from people outside the circle, e-sports audiences may just go up and give a polite greeting, leading to intensified conflicts between the inside and outside the circle.

There are always people who come to lead the rhythm during Lin Cheng's live broadcast these two days. He is very careful about the way he speaks and tries to avoid causing a bigger rhythm.

He doesn't cause trouble, just because he is afraid of trouble.

Although the rhythm is big, it is undeniable that Lin Cheng's traffic is exaggerated.

Even if he is not in China at all.

Many domestic brands have come here to ask about the possibility of cooperating with him.

Because of the preparation for MSI, Zheng Shiyan helped Lin Cheng turn down many activities.

To be honest, Lin Cheng has made a lot of money.

The Chinese market is really too big, and people like Lin Cheng who have good traffic and image are the darlings of businesses.

Because of her outstanding performance in the BJ Winter Olympics and her special background, Gu Ailing has won nearly 100 million yuan worth of commercial contracts in the two months after the Winter Olympics, and has almost locked in the top of this year's Forbes global female athlete income ranking.

Although as the popularity of the Winter Olympics fades, and Gu Ailing's subsequent commercial contracts will drop sharply after returning to the United States, according to the Forbes income list in previous years, she has great hope of eventually ranking in the top three.

Of course, the first two are more difficult to shake, namely Naomi Osaka and Serena Williams.

It is worth mentioning that Naomi Osaka and Gu Ailing have some similarities in their experiences.

Naomi Osaka has lived in the United States since she was a child. After she turned 18, she became a Japanese citizen. After winning the Grand Slam, her ability to attract money surpassed Serena Williams, who has always dominated the income list of female athletes.

With the support of two major business powers, the United States and Japan, and the fact that she is a black mixed-race, she has a lot of BUFF.

Tennis is the most popular individual sport. Naomi Osaka's current commercial value has become an existence that other female athletes cannot shake.

According to Japanese law, people with dual nationality must give up one of their nationalities after the age of 22. Naomi Osaka is willing to pay tens of millions of dollars in taxes to the United States to retain her Japanese nationality. She is obviously very clear about her value.

For the United States, she is not rare.

But for Japan, she is a unique existence in Japanese tennis.

Japanese nationality has a great impact on her commercial value.

This is indeed the case. Even though she was eliminated in the first round of the Australian Open this year, her performance has steadily declined, and her world ranking has dropped outside the top 100, Naomi Osaka is still the most profitable female athlete in the world.

This is the benefit of having a big market.

As long as you have results, you will never lack money.

This principle also applies to Lin Cheng.

Although the e-sports industry still has many shortcomings compared to traditional sports, Lin Cheng has a good personal image. With the support of the Chinese market and the dominance of the game, his ability to attract money is indeed exaggerated.

"Don't mention the Forbes list anymore. Let's just show off behind closed doors. If you go out too arrogantly, you will be beaten, you know?"

"Gu Ailing is a saint of the ages, a national scholar is unparalleled... Who posted this? Don't come to lead the rhythm."

"I am Gu Ailing's fan, don't kidnap me."

Lin Cheng talked with the water friends in the live broadcast room for a while, and saw that there were many Chinese barrages. He grabbed his teammates and greeted them one by one in Chinese.

"Hello everyone! I~~ am~ KT top laner, Riska!"

"I am EDG's AD Dai Pute!"

It was difficult for Mr. Dai's anxious spoken language, and the Chinese barrages on the barrage said: Who is Dai Pute? Not familiar! Our fans already have husbands.

Lin Cheng couldn't help laughing and didn't tell Mr. Dai this cruel fact.

Fortunately, Lao Dai only knows some pinyin, not Chinese characters.

Teammates boarded the bus one after another.

"Little guys, see you in a month!"

Lin Cheng waved his hand towards the alley at the corner of the base.

Several cats were looking around in the corner of the alley, sitting or lying, with small cat paw-shaped signs with the KT logo hanging around their necks.

There were too many people, so the cats wouldn't come over. Only the tabby followed Lin Cheng eagerly, and stopped when he reached the bus.

This group of KT cats already had their own fans, and the audience in the live broadcast room clamored to prepare sacks to steal cats.

"Okay! We're ready to go, and see you in Busan."

Ignoring the ghosts and wolves in the live broadcast room, Lin Cheng turned off the live broadcast and got on the bus with Ji Shengxi.

Ji Shengxi found a seat by the window and sat down, and Lin Cheng sat next to him.

"Yohoo! The new bus looks good."

The bus was spacious, and the chairs were the more comfortable leather sofas. There were only three seats in a row, and there were two toilets at the end of the bus.

Cuzz in the front row leaned on the back of the chair, looking amazed, "Mercedes-Benz buses are different. I didn't know Mercedes-Benz also produced buses. Does your car have this kind of chair?"

"The car is parked at the club, you can see for yourself."

A week ago, Mercedes-Benz reached a sponsorship agreement with KT. In the future, the club's cars will basically be provided by Mercedes-Benz.

Of course, as KT's star player, Lin Cheng also received a gift from the new sponsor when he attended the signing event.

A Mercedes-Benz AMG EQE series electric car.

The car is good, but Lin Cheng left it at the base after receiving it. His teammates can use it if they want. Lin Cheng usually doesn't drive himself when he goes out.

It's more convenient to take a taxi.

Cuzz doesn't have a driver's license, but he has a high interest in cars and chats with Lin Cheng non-stop.

Chi Shengxi stood up and wanted to change seats.

"Shengxi, what are you doing?"

"You are too noisy, I want to sit in the back."

"Don't! It's Wenyouzan who is noisy, not me."

Lin Cheng glanced at Cuzz.

Xiyouzezei was very sensible and sat down honestly, and stopped chatting with Lin Cheng.

After the initial excitement, the fools of KT soon fell down and rested.

After all, these guys stayed up all night last night and got up at around seven this morning, all of them were listless.

Lin Cheng huddled in a chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Just as the bus passed Hannan Bridge, Ji Shengxi patted Lin Cheng's arm.

"What are you doing?"

"Look! There's something good outside."

"Where is it?"

Lin Cheng was excited all of a sudden, his eyes lit up, "Is someone streaking?"

"Can you be a little healthier?"

Ji Shengxi was speechless, "It's the fans' support for you."

Lin Cheng turned his head and saw a huge poster of him hanging above Hannan Bridge.

In the poster, he stood with his hands on his chest and his legs slightly apart, his posture was upright and strong, and his handsome face was full of energy.

g!

King, go conquer Busan!

Our KT is invincible!

Lin Cheng's mouth corners raised.

A little bit of a middle school student, but it feels good.

"Don't sleep! Come and see Cheng's handsome photo."

Mr. Dai stood up and pointed at the top of the banner, saying sarcastically, "A bird shit on your head. Is this the treatment of a king? It's such a pity."

Lin Cheng's mouth fell.

Ji Shengxi, who was about to take out his mobile phone to take a photo, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The teammates were also laughing secretly.

"Kim Hyuk-kyu, you're done!"

Lin Cheng looked fierce, "Don't catch me at the Asian Games. I will kill you until you apologize. If Koreans cyberbully you, I won't..."

Mr. Dai changed his attitude decisively.

"Don't kill me! I can apologize now."

Lin Cheng: "???"

Is it so real?

Mr. Dai has become more and more shameless.

It's true... He who knows the times is a hero.
