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

Chapter 43 Computer Emperor

"The floor height is 3 meters, the span is 2 meters, and the depth is 8 meters." Lin Jingyi's fingers, stained with wall dust, scratched on her notebook. Suddenly, she looked up at the man who was studying the switch box. "Boss Jiang, after the renovation, the actual usable area of ​​the first floor is about 5 square meters, which can basically accommodate the functional areas we need."

"What about the price? Count the rent, decoration and furniture together and then see." Jiang Ming was more concerned about the cost.

There is no other way. As a small business, we have to find a way to spend every penny wisely.

Ding Dong!

Lin Jingyi received a QQ notification on her phone.

"The drawings have been sent over there."

"So fast?"

"Not really. I've talked to a few friends at the design institute before. They probably drew the base map when they were bored."

"Let me see. The training area is in the largest compartment on the west side, covering an area of ​​46 square meters. Each computer requires about 1.5 square meters of operating space... It can also be narrower. If eight computers are placed in a U shape, it will save a lot of space." Lin Jingyi suddenly squatted down and drew a few squares on the ground with chalk, just like the positions of defense towers in a game.

The design plans separated a 24-square-meter living area at the east end. The white porcelain stove, left behind by the previous owner, was covered in greasy dirt. Aunt Deng's tools were temporarily piled in a corner as she scrubbed the tiled wall with a steel wool, emblazoned with the Chinese character for "囍."

"This row of wall cabinets can hold 50 kilograms of rice," she said, standing on a stool and knocking on the loose cabinet doors. "But we need someone to clear the sewer. I just saw a cockroach nest when I tested the water." Master Zhou, who was helping, said.

After finalizing the lease of the three-story building, Jiang Ming did not delay and called the two of them immediately to clean up some areas that did not require additional decoration in advance.

The two of them didn't have any complaints. After all, the boss was paying them a salary, and doing some sanitation and cleaning work was nothing big.

"Let's put the dining area in the middle, just leave some space for an aisle."

Hearing this, Lin Jingyi's calculator clicked away: "A dining table for ten takes up eight square meters, plus the aisle."

"The monthly rent is 3,000 yuan, but we're renting for a whole year. The boss gave us a discount for one month, and that's enough to cover the rent. As for the renovation..."

"Water and electricity modification costs 30 to 50 yuan per square meter for materials and labor, and you have to take into account the plugs and faucets. It will be cheaper to buy it online."

"The walls and floors also need to be treated. It's best to repaint the walls with latex paint. Fortunately, the area is not large, so for the floor, it's enough to replace some tiles. On the other hand, the bathroom has not been used for a long time, so the toilet, wash basin, and shower head all need to be replaced."

"1000...5000...10000..."

As an excellent financial staff member, Lin Jingyi perfectly interprets what it means to kill the boss without using a knife.

Listening to the rising renovation costs, Jiang Ming's eyelids couldn't stop twitching up and down.

I wanted to snatch the pen from the other person's hand and shout, "Stop!"
Auntie, we still have the most critical computer peripherals that need to be updated, and the network also needs to be re-installed, so it’s better to keep the decoration simple.

In the end, the overall area of ​​the three-story building of the NXG team base that requires simple modification is about 150 square meters, and the cost is about 2 to 4 yuan.

This budget includes personnel, and Uncle Zhou finds temporary workers from the labor market, and they work in bulk themselves, which is the result of compression to the extreme.

"Okay, leave this to Uncle Zhou and Aunt Deng. Let's go back to school."

After saying hello to the two people who were busy cleaning, Jiang Ming hurried to the school with Lin Jingyi.

This time the issue is related to the club's e-sports equipment and network setup.

Now that we have set it up, we definitely can’t just buy a few computers from a closed down internet cafe and deal with it like we did before in the basement.

(This is the expected effect picture. However, it is definitely impossible to install it in S3. We have to wait until S4 finds investors before considering it.)
……

Jinling University, Student Dormitory 103!

Jiang Ming and Lin Jingyi stood in front of the door, one on the left and one on the right.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Senior Sister Lin, who was in charge of leading the way, knocked on the door.

"..." "So, what you're saying is, you want smooth tournament-level performance, high refresh rates, low latency, and minimal mouse and keyboard conflict. You also want to ensure that the game and background programs run smoothly during live streaming."

"Ok!"

“And the budget is limited?”

"Uh-huh!"

Facing the man in front of him with a chicken-coop hairstyle, who was obviously the strongest person in the computer department at the emperor level, Jiang Ming's eyes showed anticipation.

It's not that he can't afford a few high-end gaming computers.

The main reason is that the machines at the 13 LPL games were just average. If a team does it too well and has trouble adapting during the game, it will end up hurting itself.

Anyway, the speed of updating and iteration of e-sports peripherals is very fast, so I can just wait until I make some money next year to change them.

"..."

"Well, it's not impossible."

However, just when the two thought that the other party would say it was difficult to deal with because the request was too much, the computer emperor just said lightly, "Wait."

"Wait, I'll write a configuration for you guys. It's for League of Legends. This thing is well optimized and doesn't require configuration."

"The processor doesn't need to be too high. I'll help you maintain the minimum performance requirements for professional esports in key components."

"Well, for League of Legends, we need to ensure a stable frame rate. Non-essential high-end peripherals, storage, and monitor configurations can be cut. Some hardware can be purchased second-hand or in-house..."

Jiang Mingwei curled his lips and looked at Lin Jingyi, "This senior is really... unconventional."

Wow, is it really stupid to tell customers in front of you that you can choose second-hand hardware?

A few minutes later, the computer emperor stopped writing gracefully.

"It's done!"

The other party handed over a piece of A4 paper and said, "According to my configuration, each unit will cost around to yuan. You can improve the network and reduce the latency. If possible, set up a backup network. No fluctuations are better than anything else."

"Wait for me to send you the location to pick up the goods. Don't go to the place recommended by those idiots at the printing shop in the Entrepreneurship Park. You will definitely be ripped off."

"Processor i5-2400, graphics card NVIDIA GTX 650 Ti, monitor AOC I2369V..." Jiang Ming glanced at the densely packed peripheral names on the paper.

Lin Jingyi took the A4 paper filled with computer specifications and put it in her bag. "Excuse me, senior. I'll transfer the configuration fee to you via Alipay later."

"OK, then do as you please. I'll continue playing games." The Computer Emperor waved his hand and made a gesture to return to his throne.

Seeing this, Jiang Ming took the initiative to invite: "Senior, are you interested in a part-time job in esports equipment maintenance and management?"

"That NXG esports club you founded?"

Obviously, as a computer king who dominates the Internet, he is not unfamiliar with Jiang Ming's recent actions.

"Well, I mainly want you to provide some technical support and guarantees."

"Besides, general maintenance isn't that difficult and it doesn't matter who does it."

"If you have any questions, you can come to me. I charge you per visit."

The computer emperor didn't even raise his head and turned on his computer again. When he bent down, Jiang Ming could see the name on the student card hanging on the other person's desk.
