This foreign aid is ridiculously strong

"It's been decided!"

After hearing Lin Cheng's words, Kuro raised his head.

"I am tired after playing professionally for eight years. Retiring after winning the championship seems to be the best outcome. Park Yong Hyuk probably thinks the same as me."

Lin Cheng sighed.

He knows that if Kuro is interested, the club will definitely offer him a new contract. His performance this year is good enough.

The worst case scenario is that Lin Cheng said: I want to form a brotherly alliance with Kuro, and your contract price will be higher.

Unfortunately, Kuro has decided to leave.

"Then what will you do if you don't become a professional player? Stay at home or become a broadcaster?"

Kuro thought for a while: "I'm going to hang out in the LCK commentary box. I won't be separated from the familiar League of Legends, and I won't have to train and play games under so much pressure every day, and..."

After a pause, Kuro chuckled: "From now on, the beautiful female hosts in the commentary box and I will be colleagues. Do you want me to introduce them to you?"

Lin Cheng snorted.

"Brother Cheng, do you still need an introduction? Don't you even know that Miss Jin Zhixian is a big fan of Brother Cheng?"

"That's right~~~~But you have to work harder in the future. If you don't perform well, I will try my best to blacken you in the commentary box..."

Kuro paused and changed the subject: "Of course, if you are still in the LCK next year."

Obviously, Kuro also believes that Lin Cheng may not necessarily still be in KT next year, or even in the LCK.

Lin Cheng turned on the vacuum cleaner again and said with a smile: "Don't worry! Brother Cheng won't stretch his crotch. Just blow it hard for me in the comment area. From now on, the comment area will be Brother Cheng's back garden."

"Let's talk about it then. Maybe I can gain traffic by hacking you?"

"...By the way! Where shall we have dinner tonight?"

"What to eat?" Kuro was stunned.

"My treat! You got five kills in the final."

Lin Cheng looked down upon him: "You don't just want to default on your debt, do you?"

"Fart! Am I that kind of person? Don't forget that you got two five-kills in the finals! You want a treat too."

Lin Cheng waved his hand: "Okay! Don't worry! Remember mine first, and I'll invite you next time we get together."

"I have recorded the evidence."

Kuro smiled and shook his phone.

In fact, both of them knew that it might not be so easy for them to get together as a group after today.

There will be no more competitions and training, and basically everyone will no longer live in the base.

There are still two weeks until the transfer period starts. If the contract with the club is not renewed, today may be the last time they get together at the base.

After chatting with Kuro for a while, Lin Cheng briefly tidied up the room, and then the two of them ran to other teammates' rooms and wandered around twice.

"Kim Ki-bum, what do you want to eat tonight? Lee Se-hyung wants to treat you."

"Lin Cheng still owes two meals. I'll keep it in mind for him."

"Park Yonghyuk, stop eating snacks and save some space for beef in the evening."

After chatting with everyone for a while, Lin Cheng came to the manager's office in the base office building.

Team manager An Haosheng has been waiting for a while.

An Haosheng, in a suit and ties, still looks meticulous and serious, but he is actually very easy-going.

KT Club is famous for its human touch throughout the LCK, and it actually has a lot to do with the management.

"Why is Representative An so serious? Don't you welcome me?"

An Haosheng twitched the corner of his mouth and handed over the contract on the table, "Stop talking nonsense, first take a look at the contract you didn't read before the World Championships."

Lin Cheng took it and looked at it roughly.

The contract is relatively thick. If the first contract signed by Lin Cheng when he started his career at the beginning of the year was relatively hasty, KT obviously needs to be more cautious about Lin Cheng who is now the banner of KT.

Lin Cheng was not in a hurry to read the detailed terms. He only looked at the annual salary and contract period.

The initially proposed contract lasts for three years and is worth a total of 6 billion won.

In other words, the new contract that KT originally prepared for Lin Cheng had an annual salary of 2 billion, nearly 11 million yuan.

This is currently the largest contract in the LCK besides Faker.

Of course, if Chovy is transferred this year, his annual salary should be more than 2 billion won.

Because the LCK alliance will be fully launched next year, players’ salaries will definitely increase significantly.

"This is the contract prepared for me before the World Championships, so what now?"

Hearing Lin Cheng's words, An Haosheng couldn't help but smile bitterly.

They dared to draw up such a contract before Lin Cheng participated in the S game for the first time, and it was also discussed in detail by the top management.

In the past, there were many newcomers who looked like gods of war when they debuted in the league, but their value was completely wiped out when they went to the World Championship.

KT executives dared to offer such a big contract to Lin Cheng before the game. In fact, they also took a huge risk.

You know, no matter how outstanding Lin Cheng's performance is, he is still a newcomer without a full year of professional experience, and the uncertainty is too great.

Forget about an annual salary of 2 billion, the key is a three-year long-term contract.

League of Legends is a game with a lot of changes in the version. If Lin Cheng just signed the contract and the second year was fast, it would be difficult for the management to explain to the group behind it.

Of course, this was just Lin Cheng's contract before his value skyrocketed when he went to the World Championships.

An Haosheng took out another thicker-looking contract from the drawer and handed it out solemnly.

Ever since T1's Shabi CEO posted that tweet, KT's top management is now under a lot of pressure.

Fans threaten him every day. If Lin Cheng's contract cannot be renewed, KT's management will probably suffer.

There is this new contract after renegotiation by the management.

But Lin Cheng had no intention of opening the contract. Instead, he asked: "What are the club's plans for next year?"

"Um?"

"I mean... other people's contract renewal issues."

An Haosheng sighed, "To tell you the truth, we naturally hope to complete the contract renewal with every player this year, but there are some things that I can't decide."

Lin Cheng's words are actually one of the reasons why An Haosheng is currently distressed.

Lin Cheng doesn't have an agent, but his teammates are different.

It took KT a lot of effort to bring Aiming from AFS to KT last year. An Haosheng still remembers Aining's shrewd manager's face.

Aiming, who is the champion AD AD this year, will definitely see his value skyrocket. Needless to say, An Haosheng knows that his agent will turn into a vampire.

And this is just Aiming, Bono may not be that easy to dismiss.

Although KT has money, it cannot satisfy player requirements endlessly.

After winning a championship, the club's salary structure suddenly increased more than ten times. Which club can survive this?

What's more, the new contract they provided Lin Cheng really took up too much of the budget.

If the LCK does not fully launch the alliance next year, more sponsors will arrive, and they really do not have the confidence to compete with potential buyers for Lin Cheng.

Although the transfer period has not yet started, KT can roughly estimate the possible worth of other star players through various channels, as well as the possible budgets of other clubs interested in Lin Cheng.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Lin Cheng signs a contract and pulls his hips immediately next year, this new contract will be enough for An Haosheng, who finally made the decision, to resign and apologize to the sponsors behind him.

Lin Cheng also knew that the club was in trouble, but he still did not open the contract.

"Wait a minute! Let's put the contract renewal aside for now. I want to go home and rest for a while."

An Haosheng was stunned.

Lin Cheng patted his shoulder carelessly, "Don't worry! KT will always be my first choice, but now I want to go back and stay with my girlfriend peacefully."

"If, and I mean if possible, please keep my teammates, okay?"

An Haosheng nodded solemnly, "I will try my best."
