Chapter 608 - Three Sponsorships at Most (1/2)

Pei Qian was speechless.

The sponsorship of two million yuan was not too much since Boss Pei has been sponsoring one million US dollars to foreign clubs.

However, the key point was that DGE was not a veteran club that had been in operations for a long time. There was no exposure since they could not enter competitions. Who would want to sponsor them for?

Could you recoup this money?

Pei Qian calmed down a little and clicked on the photo sent by Zhang Yuan. He glanced at the picture again and found the keywords above: Waiwai Live-Streaming Platform.

Why does a live-stream platform want to sponsor the DGE club? Could it be…?

Pei Qian suddenly felt that something was not good! Indeed, the DGE club could not play official competitions, but it did not mean they could not livestream!

The live-stream platform had its own exposure!

That was a very dangerous signal, he had to interfere!

Pei Qian knew very well that within a year, all kinds of domestic capital would enter this arena and live-stream platforms would spring up like bamboo shoots after a rain. The money burning war would begin.

The popularity of live-streamers would increase, many sky-high contracts would appear!

What if there were some talented live-streamers in the DGE club?

Pei Qian was a little grateful that Zhang Yuan exposed this to him early. There seemed to be room to rescue the situation. He quickly took his car to the DGE club.

…

Pei Qian carefully reviewed the contract after he came to the DGE club.

Zhang Yuan stood by the side and could not help but to think of reasons for the scene in front of him since Boss Pei looked very serious.

It seems like Boss Pei attaches great importance to the profitability of the DGE club. He rushed over as soon as he heard the news!

Moreover, he is looking at the contract very seriously. Is he worried if there were any traps in the contracts and wanted to check it again?

I did not take a cut from Huang Wang’s live-stream contract. I wonder if Boss Pei will support my approach or not.

Pei Qian put down the contract after some time.

Zhang Yuan hurriedly tested the ground. “Boss Pei, I did not take any commission from Huang Wang’s live-stream because…”

Pei Qian raised his hand. “Um, you did very well in this! Are the other players going to sign a live-stream contract as well?”

Zhang Yuan shook his head. “No, Waiwai Live-Streaming Platform signed with Huang Wang mainly because of his potential as a live-streamer. He knows his stuff, talks a lot, has a good figure and image.

“Most of our players are not able to do the second point and are not very good at analyzing the situation in the game. Therefore, there is not much commercial value in the view of live-streaming.

“Even if they were to sign a contract, it would not be at such a high value of two million yuan.”

Pei Qian heaved a sigh of relief.

Lucky! Zhang Yuan’s understanding of the Tengda spirit is still useful.

The two-million-yuan contract that Huang Wang signed had nothing to do with him since the club did not take a cut out of it.

With this precedent, it would not affect the club even if the other players were to sign with the live-stream platform. Not to mention that the other players would certainly not sign such a large contract.

However, there was a hidden threat. What if Huang Wang were to gather a large number of fans and indirectly gained a lot of attention to the DGE club?

Therefore, this person was a hidden threat!

Pei Qian noted silently. He had to find a chance to make arrangements for such an ‘outstanding’ employee. It would not work now since there was no opportunity. Moreover, the situation was not so urgent yet so they could consider it for the long term.

The more pressing issue now was about the sponsorship of the DGE club!

Waiwai Live-Streaming Platform might have felt that sponsoring DGE would allow it to have some potential in sponsorship. Most of it would be because of the DGE club’s identity as ‘Tengda’s son’.

Sponsorship was something that attracts. There would be a second one as long as there was a first. It was the essence of being a human.

Two million might not be a lot, but what if it was a few two millions? Then, it would be awkward.

Pei Qian started the DGE club to burn money. If sponsorship could really offset all the expenses, then wouldn’t it all be a waste of his efforts?

Of course, Pei Qian could also choose to let the DGE club burn money like a bottomless pit. There were so many places to spend money after all. However, spending money like a bottomless pit would also greatly attract attention from the outside world and would probably send wrong signals.

What if everyone started to raise prices and sponsor blindly? What then? There was such a possibility.

Therefore, he had to nib sponsorship at its bud. It did not make sense to not accept sponsorship, but it should be okay if they were to just control the amount, right?

Pei Qian thought about it for a while and said, “DGE can only accept up to three sponsors at a time. Sponsor logos can only be printed in three places on the team uniform: right chest and left and right arm sleeves.

“All sponsor logos had to be small; they cannot be broader than 15 cm.”
