King of Kings, start with a perfect record and strive for the top spot.

Zhou Ting, who was working overtime to revise the plan, felt like the sky had fallen when she saw the message from Ye Lan.

"You're really not being polite! I've already worked so hard overtime, and you're still giving me more to do!"

Ye Lan said with concern, "That's too much work. Since you're going to work overtime anyway, could you take a look at the contract to make sure there are no problems?"

Zhou Ting: "Get lost, you pigeon kiss!"

Ye Lan, who had been being cheeky, was very happy. "Aren't you going to consider what I said last time? Being my secretary is much more lucrative than being Manager Huya."

Ye Lan wasn't just boasting; he was confident he could make Xueyao Milk Tea Shop bigger and stronger, even surpassing the Tiger Shark platform.

Faced with Ye Lan's invitation again, Zhou Ting, whose resolve was already wavering, hesitated once more. She turned her gaze to the darkened office area outside the office and felt a wave of loneliness wash over her.

She has been in this position for five years, and if you include the first few years after she joined Huya, it should be seven or eight years.

She had long lost her initial enthusiasm and passion for the job, and continued to work only because she didn't want to lose this high-paying job.

As her enthusiasm was completely exhausted and she began to feel numb, she wanted to make a change and try something new.

"Life is only once, there's no need to hang yourself on one tree, try a few more times on the tree next to you."

Just then, Ye Lan sent another message.

This statement is like Lu Bu, who has been successfully enchanted; every strike inflicts real wounds.

While breaking the shackles in Zhou Ting's heart, it also successfully made her laugh.

Zhou Ting covered her mouth and laughed for a while, feeling much more relaxed. She typed a reply: "Everyone online says that when there's work to be done, the secretary does it; when there's nothing to do, the secretary does it. Tell me, are you plotting something against me?"

Ye Lan pouted, "You call yourself a princess? You're almost a full twelve years older than me, what could I possibly want with you?"

"I was worried you might have some ulterior motives towards me."

Zhou Ting: "It hurts me so much when my brother talks like that, ┭┮﹏┭┮"

Ye Lan: "Sister, calm down, your little brother is scared!"

Zhou Ting: "Little brother, you're a little scared. Your older sister isn't quite normal, you know."

Ye Lan: "......."

After teasing Ye Lan quite a bit, Zhou Ting felt great. She opened the file Ye Lan had sent her and began checking the contract for any flaws.

Meanwhile, Ye Lan realized that the other party had received all the documents. Knowing that Zhou Ting was helping him with his work, he put down his phone without disturbing her.

Zhou Ting's bright eyes swept across the computer screen, her slender eyebrows furrowing slightly.

She entered Ye Lan's chat box again:

"The contract is generally fine, but there are many hidden problems in the details."

"For example, the specific time of the promotion, when it starts and when it ends, is not clearly marked. I guess they are a bit resistant to these things and don't want to advertise for you, so they want to drag it out."

Ye Lan felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing this.

Before sending the contract documents to Zhou Ting, he had read them through from beginning to end.

But he didn't notice any of these things at all.

Because it was clearly stated above that they would help promote Xueyao's herbal milk tea locally, Ye Lan thought that this sentence was enough.

That's not the case. The reason a contract is called a contract is that it must be precise.

It requires both parties to complete the cooperation on time.

Unless an unforeseen event occurs, such as a volcanic eruption, an earthquake or tsunami, a financial crisis, a zombie apocalypse, or an alien invasion of Earth.

Such cases are otherwise strictly governed by the contract.

Ye Lan felt that she was still too young and had suffered because she hadn't studied. If she had gone to university to study law, the other party wouldn't have dared to be so presumptuous.

He typed a question: "Is this true for all contracts, or only for a portion of them?"

Zhou Ting quickly replied, "Only some contracts are like this. What I find strange is that top teams and clubs have all agreed to help you promote your games, while only some bottom-tier teams are playing these low-level word games."

Ye Lan nodded; the situation was exactly as he had imagined.

Those top esports teams and gaming clubs clearly understood that helping Ye Lan promote her products was a win-win situation.

Those clubs of the bottom-tier teams don't have this vision.

They still believe that Ye Lan is taking advantage of them.

After all, Ye Lan had just taken several million yuan from them.

It's understandable that she harbors resentment towards him.

However, Ye Lan did not place all her hopes on the bottom-tier esports team club. If they were willing to do it, then everyone could make money together and then split the profits.

If they don't want to do it, that's fine too, since we've already gotten the start-up capital from them.

Why did Ye Lan want to use the e-sports club for local promotion?

Simply put, it's an emotion within people called a shared sense of honor.

To put it simply, the majority of people who support the Chinese national football team are from their own country, because they represent national honor and national sentiment.

The same principle applies to esports competitions.

The vast majority of Chengdu AG's fans are definitely from Chengdu, as are most of Chongqing Wolves' fans, and most of Wuhan eStar's fans are from Wuhan...

In addition, since they are all e-sports projects supported by the local government, this connection makes promotion much easier, and they encounter almost no resistance.

The number of local clubs is certainly not nationwide, but it's not far off; they could easily dominate half of the domestic market.

You can't get fat in one bite, so Ye Lan wasn't in a hurry and planned to take it slow.

Ye Lan returned all the contracts that Zhou Ting had marked as problematic, and made it clear that the cooperation would be terminated if a specific date was not specified.

When the club staff saw this message, their smirks curled up to the backs of their ears.

You're threatening us now?

The reply was decisive: "Double happiness! It's a deal!"

Ye Lan laughed when she saw the answer. These short-sighted people had no idea what they were missing.

They'll regret it someday.

While Ye Lan was signing the contract, on the other side, in the Tiger Shark office...

After finishing her work, Zhou Ting stood up, stretched, and then placed all the documents on her boss's desk.

After doing all this, she put a blue sticky note on top of the document.

A few words were written on it in neat handwriting.

"Sister Yun, thank you for taking care of me all this time, but I'm sorry, I have to resign. Please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye. Love, Ting!"

The Tiger Shark Building was completely dark. Zhou Ting handed her office key to the security guard and looked at the equally brightly lit building across the street. She felt an unprecedented sense of ease and joy.

So this is what it feels like to be carefree and relaxed?

She raised her lips slightly and walked towards the roadside, her high heels clicking lightly on the ground.
