Chapter 28 LSPL, YM Battle!
Chapter 28 LSPL, YM Battle!
Unfortunately, there was nowhere for them to charge, and they couldn't just charge at Lin Kong and KG.
If someone else ruins it, what will you eat?
What else can we do?
There's nothing good to watch, so I can only look at other things.
LPL, LCK, and even LSPL, please support Lin Kong's KG team.
"The 'hunger marketing' strategy, the ten-day SOLO martial arts tournament, was a feast for the eyes, and the response was indeed very good."
"Recently, the platform's traffic has increased significantly. Major streamers are preparing for the second stage of the SOLO competition, conducting various SOLO training sessions every day, which has attracted a large number of regular viewers."
"If this continues, they'll all become long-term spectators by the time the SOLO tournament ends."
"Mr. Lin, you're a business genius!"
The first phase has come to an end, and the results have been extremely significant.
Principal Wang sent a congratulatory message and also brought a whole host of incentives and sponsorships for Lin Kong; he was practically ready to become sworn brothers with Lin Kong on the spot.
He's been overwhelmed by the Panda TV situation lately, and is even considering selling and disbanding Panda TV soon.
Unexpectedly, Lin Kong's move has led to a significant rebound in Panda TV's viewership, which is a cause for great joy.
However, the money given by Principal Wang was considerable, but it was still a drop in the bucket compared to Lin Kong's debt.
"Although I can't handle the debt, my quality of life can be improved a lot. When I reach the LPL, I can find the best team analyst."
"Add more staff to our KG team, so that Zhu Kai and I won't be running around all day."
"Wow, the water flow is finally up and running every day."
"At least I don't have to keep borrowing money from the bank. I'm so tired of seeing banks these days!"
Turning on his computer, Lin Kong stared at the vast majority of his companies still showing huge losses, with staggering daily figures. He didn't dare to look closely.
Despite painstakingly managing KG for so many days, and even with a significant increase in daily income, my debts continued to rise.
After all, among the companies and businesses under his control, the only bright spot right now is the KG club and esports-related projects; he really has no other options.
We're losing money every single day!
Lin Kong really wanted to shut down those businesses that were no longer operating, but if he were to reduce production on a large scale and shrink his business, the entire group would likely face a chain reaction of collapse.
The simplest example is that in the e-sports circle, your status as a big star will definitely be greatly reduced. Without a big star status, how can you arrange to play scrims with LPL? Without a big star status, how can you organize a SOLO martial arts tournament?
That's when there's truly no chance of turning the tide!
Just like the murder mystery book, if you sell it as soon as you get it, you'll only lose money!
Only by staying put and waiting for the right opportunity can losses be turned into profits.
"Right now, let other industries invest more in KG and leverage the star effect to save the cash flow."
"The fundamentals of most industries are still good; it's just that the cash flow isn't working."
"With the funds replenished, at least the daily losses won't continue to be so enormous."
"We absolutely have to make it into the LPL!"
After careful consideration, Lin Kong realized that relying solely on LSPL and the traffic generated by the SOLO Martial Arts Tournament would not be enough to save his business empire.
Only by entering the LPL, leveraging the world's largest esports stage, and slapping GG in the faces of more people, can there be a chance for a comeback.
Furthermore, KG cannot simply make it into the LPL.
There are many teams that can enter the LPL, but only IM has made a name for itself in history, and it was a three-level jump.
Lin Kong doesn't want this kind of fame; he wants a clean sweep in the LSPL!
"Time is tight, and the task is heavy!"
"The martial arts tournament has been quite lively lately, so this is a chance for you to relax for a while."
"Tomorrow is the YM match, and YM is currently in the same league as you, with a perfect record."
"After four weeks of competition, a 12-0 record is no joke. Even EDE and NBY have lost to them."
Inside the training room, Lin Kong addressed the five KG players.
Tomorrow is the crucial YM match. YM and their KG are known as the twin stars in LSPL.
After four weeks of competition, they had won all twelve matches.
It can be said that whoever can defeat the other will secure the top spot in the regular season.
Lin Kong made ample preparations for this. YM's core theme revolves around the late-game carry bot lane duo of Ning and Ming, while also emphasizing a fast-paced mid-jungle game.
It's very similar to KG's playing style.
"I estimate that YM will adopt a tactical arrangement targeting TheShy tomorrow."
"In the last five regular season games, we've been using the strategy of protecting TheShy, and working together as a team."
"I haven't used it much yet, it's a fast-paced, mid-lane style."
"Xiao Kai, when you lead the team tomorrow, remember to use the B tactic I gave you. If they let Ryze through, then use the A tactic."
Before the match, Lin Kong instructed Zhu Kai on all the preparations to be made in the draft phase.
KG began pre-match preparations. As Lin Kong said, they adjusted their playstyle to focus on the mid and jungle as the core of a fast-paced game, allowing Zuo Shou and Xiao Tian to unleash their full potential.
By the end of February, the weather in Shanghai was gradually turning cooler.
Inside the No. 666 eSports arena, the number of spectators watching the LSPL matches is increasing.
YMvsKG is the prime time after get off work on Mondays.
The final battle, from 7 to 8 pm.
At this time, Lin Kong led the entire KG team into the preparation area.
Walking along the street, you can hear the powerful roars and deafening screams coming from inside the esports arena, which penetrate the entire arena.
"KG! Unrivaled! KG! Go for it!"
"TheShy!!!! Awesome! Shy, we have to go to the martial arts tournament today and crush everyone!!!"
"theshy!!!"
"LSPL's invincible king, attack!!!"
"KG, charge!!!"
It supports KG sound, so loud that the director doesn't need to focus on recording audio and can freely turn on some microphones.
The cheers were loud enough to drown out the music in the live stream and the commentators' voices.
The fans' enthusiasm at the scene was evident.
"Mr. Lin, really?!"
"Are they going to use the same trick again? It seems like YM isn't afraid." Walking down the street, Zhu Kai heard the roaring from inside the e-sports arena and assumed it was Lin Kong's big hand calling in a huge cheering squad to suppress YM.
Faced with Zhu Kai's questioning, Lin Kong rolled his eyes. "Hey, hey, hey, how do you look at me all day?"
Am I the kind of person who only knows how to use any means necessary?
...
Zhu Kai stared at Lin Kong in silence for a moment, then quickly spoke up, "Uh, no!"
Lin Kong was speechless. "I really didn't call for a cheering squad today. Those outside are all genuine fans who came to support KG."
"Did you really think my SOLO martial arts tournament was a waste of time? Right now, KG is the most promising rising star in LSPL!"
Lin Kong calmly stated that the commotion outside was expected. Since the start of the SOLO Martial Arts Tournament, he had stopped organizing cheering squads to watch the matches at KG.
In the previous week's matches, no one from KG felt anything was amiss, because the teams they were competing against were too weak to attract any spectators to the venue.
Today is different; our opponent is YM, the rising star of LSPL!
Two teams with a 12-0 record, it's like a clash of titans, who wouldn't want to watch?
