Chapter 701 E-Sports Division (Supplementary Update)

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but lit up: "Mr. Pei, you said, I would like to hear it carefully!"

Pei Qian took a sip of tea and sorted out his thoughts a little.

"First of all, we must provide a unified standard contract for all clubs and players, and at the same time, any Yin-Yang contract situation is strictly prohibited."

"Standard contracts allow signing short contracts and long contracts, but they can only agree on basic content such as contract time, liquidated damages, transfer fees and salary. There cannot be some messy terms to restrict the team members."

"Especially, there should be no very vague terms, such as 'Players must cooperate with the club to conduct commercial operations unconditionally', etc., which must be explicitly prohibited."

"There is no problem for the club to operate commercially, but under our supervision, we must not be uncontrollable, and we must not squeeze players."

"Secondly, during each year's transfer period, clubs and free agents can freely contact and make promises, but they cannot sign contracts in private. Before signing, we must arrange for each club to bid for players with free agents through secret shots."

"When filming secretly, each club first issues an intention and write down the tendency of the contract time, liquidated damages, compensation, additional special treatments, such as the promised players' playing time, etc."

"Once the intention is confirmed during the secret shooting, the players will choose which team to go to. If both parties agree on the same intention, they will sign a formal contract. The club must abide by the promises during the secret shooting, and we will be responsible for supervision."

"Finally, when a dispute arises, both parties must accept our mediation, and we are the intermediaries, so that the players and the club can take a step back and choose a plan that can be accepted by both parties."

"On the basis of these principles, our DGE club only absorbs players with free agent status. If the players leave, they will pay the transfer fee or liquidated damages according to the minimum standards when they are still within the contract period."

Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Pei, is this a bit ideal? It's not very operational, right?"

"What if the club doesn't accept our standard contract? Or sign a yin-yang contract in private?"

"What if the club confirms the intention and then repents?"

"The contract signed by the club and the players is legally beneficial. Once a dispute arises, the club can bypass us and sue the players. We can't control this."

Pei Qian smiled slightly: "This is easy to do."

"We made a promise with these clubs in black and white at the beginning. If the rules are violated, the minority will be fined and the worst will be suspended."

"If these clubs do not accept our supervision, they will not have the qualification to enter the GoG League. If you want to withdraw, we will buy their GoG branch as an intermediary and sell it to other clubs that are interested in entering the GoG League."

In other words, if you don’t accept our unified management, then I won’t take you to play.

If you want to play other e-sports projects, go to it. I will pay for your gog branch and sell it to others, so that you will not suffer any substantial losses. But as long as you disagree with the supervision, you will not want to enter this circle.

As for why Pei Qian had to formulate such rules, it was mainly based on three considerations.

First of all, there is only a unified standard contract, no Yin-Yang contract and various additional terms, so let the club play some tricks.

Many clubs offer sky-high contracts, but they are not really sky-high. There are many routines here.

For example, the most common phenomenon is that clubs and live broadcast platforms work together to pay a portion of the money, but in fact they have some requirements for players' live broadcasts, which overdraws the players' future commercial value.

The contestants made money on the surface, but they didn’t necessarily make money in reality.

But in this way, the transfer fee is really raised. At that time, every player sold by DGE Club will get more money than before, which is too uncomfortable.

So, everyone has less routine and more sincerity. It just sounds good to raise the transfer fee to such a high, but it actually doesn't make sense.

In addition, DGE Club only agrees on the minimum amount of transfer fees, which allows DGE Club to make as little money as possible from transfer fees.

Secondly, establishing such a regulatory agency requires recruiting a large number of personnel, and daily operating expenses are a fee; at the same time, these various regulatory regulations will definitely have a dissuasion effect on some clubs.

If a club does not accept it and wants to withdraw, it is easy to do. Pei Qian pays to buy their GoG branch and will not let them suffer any losses. I will make up for your investment.

But it will not be that easy for you to come in after you leave.

If you buy these clubs, you can spend another amount of money, and Pei Qian can't ask for it.

Finally, Pei Qian does have some ideas to regulate the industry and protect the rights and interests of players.

Without higher-level supervision, it is impossible for an equal relationship between players and clubs to establish, because the right to speak is not on the same level.

Just like ordinary workers face a company, they often have to vote with their feet and choose the least bad company, but in fact they do not have the ability to bargain with the company.

Only a very small number of particularly outstanding and completely irreplaceable people have the ability to bargain.

When the strength of both sides is not equal, if the official fails to act and maintains absolute neutrality, it is actually equivalent to being in a leap.

Just like a boxing champion fighting with an ordinary person, if neither party is clear about the fault, the third party is absolutely neutral and ignores it, that is, in fact, let ordinary people die.

Therefore, Pei Qian's regulatory agency objectively protects the rights of players, but does not exploit the club, but only makes the club not greedy and over-exploiting players.

The transfer fee and liquidated damages that a club should get are not bad at all, and the commercial contracts that should have are not bad at all, but they can't take advantage of loopholes and do whatever they want.

Pei Qian certainly recognized the spirit of the contract, but there are two premises: first, the contract itself must be fair, not a tyrant clause, and a slave contract cannot be based on the exploitation of one party on the other; second, the spirit of the contract does not mean that the contract must not be violated, but that it is willing to bear the corresponding consequences after it is violated.

In short, such regulations allow DGE clubs to earn less transfer fees and can persuade some of the club capital to withdraw. After these clubs withdraw, they can spend a lot of money to buy their entire GoG branch. Wouldn't it be nice?

Moreover, this new regulatory agency also needs to spend money on its daily operations. It is good to recruit more people to support it. It is a little bit more to pay more.

Zhang Yuan had already brought two pieces of paper and quickly recorded what Mr. Pei had said before.

I just looked through these terms carefully, but I felt a little confused.

Can it work?

None of the big leagues in the world seem to do this.

The reason is also very simple, and I dare not or are unwilling to break up with the big club.

Big clubs bring fans, popularity and funds to the league. To be fair, the popularity of a certain event must be the result of the joint efforts of the organizers, sponsors, clubs, professional players and audiences. Any link missing will have problems.

Therefore, many times, even if the organizer has this ability, he is unwilling to offend these big clubs. Even if a club actually exploits the players, as long as it does not cause too much resentment from heaven and earth, most of them will hit the 50th board each to calm down.

After all, in most cases, a player is substitutable and sacrificeable, while the losses caused by leaving a large club are difficult to compensate.

However, the regulations given by General Pei are really not friendly to the club, and some clubs must be unhappy.

The result of being unhappy is to part ways and part ways, because Mr. Pei has never been a person who can compromise.

From Mr. Pei's attitude, you can vaguely guess that he really doesn't care about the resources mastered by these clubs!

Zhang Yuan was silent for a moment and said, "Mr. Pei, emotionally, I support supervision of the league. After all, there is no rule, and only when the league is regular can a healthy competition be formed."

"However, if we take such strict control measures, we will definitely persuade many clubs to withdraw. If the losses and benefits are compared... Is it cost-effective?"

"If the club dissuades the club and the funds, popularity, attention and so on of the entire league may be affected. If those old clubs leave more than half, then what should we do if the losses we suffer far outweigh the returns?"

Pei Qian smiled: "Of course it's cost-effective."

Zhang Yuan was silent for a moment and nodded: "Okay."

Since Mr. Pei is so sure, he must have seen more long-term things, so Zhang Yuan no longer asked.

"So Mr. Pei, what is the name of this new regulatory department?" Zhang Yuan asked.

Pei Qian thought for a while: "Just call it the e-sports business department, and you can take this opportunity to build Gog's professional league GPL."

"The current few clubs can be given priority in obtaining access qualifications, but the premise is that they must accept our conditions and be subject to supervision."

"As for how to arrange the specific schedule, let's consider it after the new department is established."

Zhang Yuan nodded: "Okay, Mr. Pei."

After sending Mr. Pei away, Zhang Yuan returned to the conference room again and read the content he had written down from beginning to end, hoping to infer the profound meaning of Mr. Pei's move.

Now for Zhang Yuan, his biggest confusion is Mr. Pei’s words “Of course it’s cost-effective”.

For the current e-sports industry, the first priority is to make the plate bigger.

Although the gog Global Invitational has achieved good popularity, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this event obviously has a lot of room for improvement.

There is still a lot of potential in the future.

Mr. Pei also said that to build a professional league of gog, it is obvious that it is necessary to make the e-sports plate bigger.

But the problem is that using such strict regulatory conditions to constrain clubs is obviously contrary to this goal to some extent.

How did Mr. Pei choose?

Zhang Yuan began to carefully analyze every requirement put forward by Mr. Pei.
