Chapter 1038: Transfer, IG's Invitation!
During this time, ES. There's actually a lot going on inside M. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The first is Madlife's back injury and needs to be retired for a season.
So not long after returning to China, Lee Sang-hyuk helped him submit an application for temporary retirement and recuperation to the Korean E-sports Association.
Of course, there is also Dopa, who has long been mentioned to Lee Sang-hyuk that he will finish his studies after playing last season.
During the transfer period, although he was a little reluctant, he chose to retire because he didn't want to live up to his parents' expectations.
Finally, there is Choi Hyun Wook, who has been contacted by several clubs in South Korea during the transfer period after the mid-season.
Originally, Choi Hyun Wook was unmoved, after all, he was discovered at ES.M, and of course he has special feelings for the ES.M club, and he also wants to win an S series world championship with his original teammates.
However, the successive retirement of Topa and Madlife, as well as the high signing fee offered to him by the SKT club, made Choi Hyun Wook fall into a hesitation for a while.
In the end, Choi Hyun-wook still found Lee Sang-hyuk.
After Lee Sang-hyuk learned about this, he didn't hide anything.
Instead, he told Choi Hyun Wook about S.M's actions and the situation that ES.M will face next season.
There is no feast in the world.
The same is true between players in the club.
After the retirement of Topa and Madlife, ES. M next season is uncertain again.
Lee Sang-hyuk felt that keeping Choi Hyun-wook strong at ES.M might not be a good thing for his personal development.
So under the guidance of Lee Sang-hyuk, Choi Hyun-wook finally accepted SKT's invitation and has now moved to SKT's base.
......
In this way, it means that ES.M has reduced the number of players by three at once.
This made Li Xiuman, who had not received any news before, how could he not be surprised at this time?
He frowned, and was about to attack.
suddenly found that he had no position to attack at all.
You must know that the renovation of ES.M has not yet been completed, and the management of ES.M Club is still in the hands of Lee Sang-hyuk.
As the manager of the club, Lee Sang-hyuk certainly has the right to decide whether the players will stay or not.
S.M, who is only a shareholder of ES.M, has nothing to say about it.
What's more, Dopa, Madlife and Choi Hyun Wook are all out of contract, so they naturally retire and transfer, there is no breach of contract at all, and there is no need to pay any transfer fees or the like.
So even if Li Xiuman could know in advance, it would be useless at all.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuman couldn't help squinting slightly, and the expression on his eyes became a little cloudy.
......
Lee Sang-hyuk, who was sitting opposite, didn't notice the change in the expression on Lee so-man's face at the moment.
Because he was surprised that Gu Daewoo had found these replacements for ES.M.
Smeb,Peanut,Kuro....
This is the "Tiger Team" that shined in the S5 season in the previous life, and all the players in the S5 World Championship reached the peak of popularity - Roxtigers!
In the previous life, Roxtigers' Smeb was rated as the "world's No. 1 top laner".
Peanut, nicknamed "Little Peanut", has won the love of audiences all over the world because of his cute appearance and fierce playing style.
What's more, this is a team that can fight fiercely with a "galaxy battleship" like SKT in the semi-finals in the previous life, and once forced it into a desperate situation!
And that semi-final is known as the "finals staged in advance"!
The original team of this kind of team actually came to ES.M as a substitute in this parallel world?
That guy... How the hell did you get all these people?
Lee Sang-hyuk couldn't help but raise his head, and glanced at Gu Dae-woo, who was sitting next to Lee so-man, with a somewhat complicated gaze.
......
Gu Daewoo remembered Lee so-man's previous words and kept paying attention to Lee Sang-hyuk's movements.
Seeing Lee Sang-hyuk looking up, he couldn't help but smile and asked, "Sang-hyuk, what do you think of these substitutes?" Oh, and each fighter has their career profile under their name, and I think they all have a decent potential. ”
Lee Sang-hyuk didn't answer, but closed the information noncommittally, and then turned his head to look at Lee so-man, whose face was cloudy.
"Director, I don't have too many objections to S.M's resumption of ES.M's shares and operation and management rights."
As soon as Lee Sang-hyuk said this, Lee so-man and Kim Young-min couldn't help but glance at each other in surprise.
You know, what they were most worried about before they came was that Lee Sang-hyuk would not agree, and then the two sides would make a fish.
It really couldn't have been a worse ending.
However, what they never expected was that Lee Sang-hyuk was so easy to talk and directly agreed?
There was a puzzled look on their faces.
......
"But I have one more proposal."
Without waiting for them to think about it, Lee Sang-hyuk quickly stretched out two fingers, "2 billion won, I will sell my 41% stake to you, and from now on I will not participate in the affairs of the management or interfere in the operation of the club." ”
Lee Sang-hyuk's words undoubtedly separated himself from the club's management and operation, if he still stays at ES.M in the future, then he is just an ordinary professional player, and he no longer has any say in the club's affairs.
And 2 billion won may not be a small amount for ordinary people.
But this is undoubtedly the best news for S.M, the behemoth in the entertainment industry.
So when they heard this, Lee so-man and Kim Young-min both showed happy looks on their faces.
Gu Daewoo, who was on the side, was more sensitive to this aspect of the club, and after seeing Lee Sang-hyuk throw everything out at once, he didn't have the slightest regret.
He couldn't help frowning and asked, "Have other clubs approached you?" Sanghyuk, you want to transfer too? ”
Hearing this, Kim Min-young and Lee so-man couldn't help but be stunned.
"That's exactly what I'm going to say next."
Lee Sang-hyuk glanced at Gu Daewoo with a slight smile on his face.
He quickly took out two more contract documents and handed them over, "This is my transfer notice for Uzi and I. ”
Lee so-man looked at Lee Sang-hyuk with a smile on his face, stretched out his hand to take the contract, and looked down, but he couldn't help frowning, "IG club? China's LPL Division? ”
Hearing Li Xiuman's words, Kim Yingmin's expression also changed.
You know, ES. M anyone can go, but once Lee Sang-hyuk is gone, the club is really only an "empty shell".
Thinking of this, Kim Young-min couldn't help but change his attitude, and said bitterly, "Sang-hyuk, if you think about it carefully, the e-sports environment here in South Korea is much better than there, and if you let go of the management, even if you are just a professional player, our club guarantees to offer you the top annual salary!" ”
Lee Sang-hyuk curled the corners of his mouth and showed a playful smile, "Oh? Is that so? The signing fee on IG's side is 30 million, how much can you offer? ”
Needless to say, the three people present all know that the 30 million offered by IG is definitely not won won.
Thinking of the exchange rate between the two, just a little mental calculation, Lee so-man and Kim Young-min quickly looked at each other again in shock.
That's nearly 5 billion won!
At this price, they are impossible to come up with for a short-term signing of a pro.
"Sang-hyuk, are you really not thinking about it anymore?"
Li Xiuman's face had become a little ugly at this time, and he couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.
I have to say that Li Xiuman, who is known as the "tyrant" in S.M Company, is really a little scary once his face sinks.
