League of Legends: Reborn in Season 3, Tuning the Entire League

Chapter 12 Follow-up development!

"I'll do my best to secure support for your university's entrepreneurial resources, but you have to follow every step you outline, make it official, make it work, and achieve results!"

Professor Yu Qun removed his gold-rimmed glasses and tapped his lesson plan against the 47-page "Five-Year Development Plan for the Esports Industry" on his desk. "Do you know why the academy made an exception and granted the Entrepreneurship Park A-level resources?" He pointed to the data chart in the appendix. "Last year, a project incubated by Zhejiang University was valued at over million yuan. Your esports business plan is the only one in the past three years that can compete with that in terms of business model—"

"So don't embarrass me. If you can get it done, the academy will reserve a spot for you in the undergraduate, master's and doctoral programs."

"clear!!!"

Yu Qun added, "Also, if esports really develops as you predicted in your business plan and experiences a boom in 15 or 16, then you should try to accumulate as much capital as possible over the next few years. Don't let the cake be built by then and you're kicked out."

"If you have any difficulties, don't try to handle it on your own. Tell me, the teacher."

Jiang Ming's eyes were filled with gratitude as he replied loudly, "Thank you, teacher."

He was very clear that he was just an ordinary college student. Even if he was reborn, without any experience in related fields, even if he benefited from the trends of the times, he would ultimately be just a "nouveau riche" with a little money.

If you want to truly get involved in a world with an industrial chain worth tens of billions of dollars as an ordinary person, even if you are lucky enough to get in, you will eventually be kicked out.

Haven’t people like Dong Baiwan and PDD ever tried to form a team?

Of course they tried!
But what about the ending?
Jiang Ming gazed at the newly sprouted buds on the sycamore tree outside the window, thinking of the short-lived "Internet cafe emperors" in his previous life.

The memory of the Royal Club being forced to sell the team in 2014 due to a broken funding chain is still a thorn in their side.

Therefore, Jiang Ming began to consciously stand out since his freshman year, actively answering questions in class and getting first place in exams to build up a reputation for himself as a top student. At the same time, he used the knowledge he gained in the later era of the Internet explosion to attract the attention of the bigwigs in his own School of Economics and Management, and strive to become their disciple.

In society, there is only one person who has no relatives or friends but is willing to help you with all his strength.

That’s the teacher!

"Oh, one more thing!"

"Also, don't take things without giving anything in return. The institute has helped you so much. Would it be okay for you to set up a research project based on your e-sports proposal and provide some data and information on a regular basis?"

"no problem!"

"Oh one more thing!"

"Teacher, please tell me everything at once. As long as I can do it..."

Jiang Ming was a little amused and confused. It seemed that his teacher was possessed by Jackie Chan's father.

"I want to tell you that if you can take a break, don't take it. Work harder. Find the teachers' books and read them in advance. Follow the exams and I'll help you find a solution based on where you're ranked."

……

As Jiang Ming came out of the teacher's office and walked through the wisteria-covered corridor of the School of Economics and Management, his phone kept vibrating:
After making sure that Senior Sister Lin could handle it, he didn't go back to the store in the Entrepreneurship Park, but went straight to the training base where the team was located.

On the way, Jiang Ming thought for a moment, "Teacher is right. Even though we're just starting out, we don't have to spend much money. Once we enter the LPL and start to formalize, the monthly expenses for venue rental, daily operating costs, various hardware facilities for the esports club, and player salaries will all be considerable."

“Being kicked out after the pie becomes big is a matter for the future. It would be fun if you can’t sustain it halfway.”

"My Taobao store's real-time data shows that daily meat floss pancake sales have surpassed 2000, and the price of advertising space in the live broadcast room is also getting higher and higher."

"The most urgent task is to leverage our early-mover advantage and grab a piece of the pie in creating high-quality League of Legends videos. Simply creating tutorial videos isn't enough." "If the online store's orders are higher, we can renegotiate the supply price with our allies. The contract with the live streaming platform is about to expire..."

LOL videos can be divided into two categories, one is teaching videos, the other is entertainment videos. The new hero teaching series can be regarded as the first category, while spoof jokes like "Teacher Xu's Mountain Patrol Series" can be classified as entertainment.

Both types of videos can be explored in depth and the track can be expanded. For some videos that only require editing, such as "The Style of the Strongest King", you don't need to do it yourself. You can find two top-notch talents majoring in media... ahem, they should be top-notch talents from Jinling University to produce them, and the salary doesn't need to be too high.

The basic platform is the online store. Increasing the attention of the online store and using video traffic to obtain more funds as soon as possible are necessary in this wild era of e-sports with a lack of sponsorship and commercialization.

The online store’s current products mainly include various digital products, mainly e-sports peripherals, seasonal clothing and snacks!
The sales of e-sports peripherals are quite satisfactory. If you don't consider the ordinary keyboards that cost a dozen yuan as mechanical keyboards to cheat your family, the profit of this part is not high, mainly because a pair of keyboards can often be used for a long time.

The same goes for clothing. For the sake of reputation and future path, Jiang Ming did not follow the example of some of his peers and sell T-shirts in pairs for only one or two hundred yuan.

Therefore, the most profitable items in the store are snacks such as meat floss cakes. After all, for game players, meat floss cakes that taste good and are filling are the best choice.

In the past two years, 13 and 14, countless e-sports anchors have made a fortune by selling meat pancakes.

"It seems that if we want to ensure continuous funding, we have to continue selling meat floss pancakes." Jiang Ming smiled helplessly.

When he first started his business, he boasted, "Look, I'll sell him 100,000 meat floss pancakes..."

It now seems that not only is the original goal about to be achieved, but it will also far exceed the amount of 100,000.

After all, we sold several thousand meat floss pancakes just yesterday.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming remembered something and took out his mobile phone, opened the online banking and transferred the salary to Senior Sister Lin first.

(Your ICBC transferred 4000 yuan to Lin Jingyi! PS: Last month's salary)
Lin Jingyi: "Wow, not only did they raise our wages instantly, but they paid it on the second day. Thank you, boss!"

"Boss, you're so generous. I love you so much. (I feel empowered to work again.JPG)"

Sure enough, no matter where you are, asking about someone's well-being is not as practical as giving them a huge sum of money.

With Xiao Qianqian paving the way, Jiang Ming instantly felt much more confident and typed a message to the other party.

"Senior, please take some time to recruit people these days. The store should be busy with orders for a few days. It's okay to have a few more part-time packers. Also, please help me contact any students majoring in media. I have some part-time video editing jobs here."

Well, since it can be outsourced, I won’t consider recruiting regular employees for the time being.

On the other side of the network, Lin Jingyi typed, "Okay, okay, what about the interview? Will it be an online interview like usual, or will you go back to school?"

"Just watch, I'll be very busy in the next few days."

"Also, when the warehouse receives the snacks sent by the friendly officials and we pack them up and send them out, remember to check the production date to avoid selling expired products."

As far as I can remember, many anchors selling meat pancakes seemed to have gotten into trouble for selling inferior products as good ones, and some of them even received state-owned positions because of this. Jiang Ming didn't want this to happen to him.

"That's no problem. I monitor the goods going in and out of the warehouse every day. How many part-time media positions are you looking for?"

"Two, maybe."
