March 10th, Saturday...

The ICL league was about to officially start today.

Eric and Zhao Xuming arrived at the ICL league venue once again on Long Yu Corporation's side. They were waiting for the official opening of the ICL league and the two key opening battles today.

At the same time, they were also paying attention to the public opinion online. They were extremely optimistic about the opening ceremony of the ICL league today.

The ICL league had already played two exhibition matches on Wednesday and Thursday. Its popularity was steadily increasing.

Especially since the world champion FV Team was on on Thursday, the number of live-streamers exceeded 60,000.

A mere 60,000 yuan did not give people much of a feeling, but Zhao Xuming made an issue out of the fact that other live-stream platforms were faking the data. He successfully established an impression in netizens' hearts that the data on Bunny Tail Live-stream was real and that the data on other platforms were fake.

This way, the audience would no longer pay attention to the exact number of people on the live-stream platform. Instead, they would focus on other data such as the number of bullet screen comments on the live-stream. They would successfully eliminate the shortcomings of "fewer live-streamers" and label the ICL league as "real".

All in all, the situation was great!

The initial preparations were done. Today was Saturday, and the ICL league officially began. Success or failure depended on this.

Bunny Tail's live-stream was real and could not be faked, Zhao Xuming was not worried that the popularity would drop today.

It was Saturday today after all. There would be more viewers watching the competition during the holiday. What's more, it was the opening ceremony of the ICL league. The official platform had arranged a series of viewing and lucky draw events, including the team's appearance, official documentary, celebrity interview, and so on. The popularity would definitely be higher than on Thursday.

On the other hand, the BO3 of the second key battle would still be played by FV Team and SUG. It was enough to ensure that today's competition was the highlight.

Zhao Xuming was in a good mood.

He had been very tired while preparing for the ICL league, especially with the broadcasting rights. Fortunately, the dust had settled. He just had to lie down and wait for the ICL league's popularity to increase.

Soon, the ICL league officially began!

The live audience was still seated. Amidst the warm applause and cheers, the captains of the various teams stepped onto the stage. The host enthusiastically introduced the preparation process of the ICL league, the participating teams, and the bright prospects. The various sections of the opening ceremony progressed in an orderly manner.

Zhao Xuming sat in the first row of the audience seats. He looked at every member's face up close and enjoyed this moment.

He took out his cell phone and planned to watch Bunny Tail live-stream after that to see how popular he was today.

Zhao Xuming clicked on the live-stream of the ICL league and immediately saw the number of viewers: 78,525!

Nearly 80,000!

Zhao Xuming could not help but raise his brows as joy filled his heart.

80,000 did not seem like a lot but everyone knew that the number of people watching Bunny Tail live-stream was real.

No one would think that 80,000 people watching the competition was less popular than eight million people. Instead, they would subconsciously draw a ranking in their hearts.

Compared to Thursday's 60,000, the number of people watching the ICL league increased again. This was undoubtedly a good sign!

The bullet screen was filled with comments. It was enough to show how popular the ICL league was.

These bullet screen comments were all real after all. There were no fake bullet screen comments. Each bullet screen represented a real person watching the ICL league.

However, Zhao Xuming was stunned when he saw the comments.

"Wow, ICL's popularity today is not bad. It's actually a quarter of the GPL league!"

"The ICL is an opening ceremony, alright? It's normal to see more people."

"Who gave you the illusion that the crowd from ICL is similar to GPL people? Obviously, ICL league has already surpassed themselves with 80,000 people."

"I'm here to watch the GPL league and also here to visit."

"I thought that 70,000 to 80,000 people would be quite a lot, but it looks like it's only average now. It can't be compared to GPL!"

"It looks like the bullet screen comments would be more or less alright as long as there are more than 30,000 viewers. They would all be distributed. However, the number of viewers in the live-stream would not lie!"

"There are so many people on the first day of Bunny Tail live-streaming GPL. How many people would watch the live-stream GPL platforms?"

Zhao Xuming was stunned when he saw the bullet screen comments.

What was going on?

Why were the people in the live-stream talking about GPL?

All of a sudden, Zhao Xuming recalled that he had requested for Bunny Tail to live-stream the GPL league at the same time when he signed the contract!

Could it be...?

Zhao Xuming quickly exited the ICL's live-stream and successfully found the GPL's live-stream in the live-stream list.

As expected, the GPL was also being broadcasted!

He looked at the number of viewers in GPL's live-stream, 335,879!

Zhao Xuming almost thought that he had seen wrongly. He took a closer look and finally confirmed that it was a six-digit, 330,000 people!

It was four times the ICL league!

What's more, today was only the first day of the GPL league's official broadcast on Bunny Tail.

"300,000 viewers on the first day? That's ridiculous!"

"Could Tengda have arranged for other publicity events?"

Zhao Xuming quickly returned to the front page of Bunny Tail Live-Stream and searched for related promotional content online.

The most eye-catching spot on the front page of Bunny Tail's live-stream was still the ICL league promotional material. On the other hand, the GPL league promotional content could not be seen at all.

There seemed to be no related publicity on the internet.

Zhao Xuming did not believe it. He continued searching and finally found clues in the discussion forum.

Tengda Corporation seemed to be promoting GOG in the game!

GOG was a dual-terminal game. The data on the PC and mobile games were interconnected. In fact, there was no special publicity. There was only a promotional picture of Bunny Tail Live-Stream on the homepage after the game's program entered. One could jump to the webpage with a click. There was also additional professional data that one could see more backstage during the bunny tail live-stream!

Zhao Xuming clicked on GPL's live-stream once again. Indeed, he found a small bubble in the upper right corner of the original live-stream. When he clicked on it, a small window would pop up.

There were two pages on this small window. They were 'internal data' and 'historical data'.

Internal data was mainly the real-time data of the current game, and historical data was the data of a certain hero or team throughout the entire season.

All of these data were presented in a very graphical form. One could browse the data in different aspects by moving them up and down. What's more, these data were still changing in real time.

After every team battle in the competition, one could see the output data of the team battle and the economic changes of the heroes in each position.

The bullet screen comments in the live-stream rolled quickly. There were many discussions about this new function in the discussion of the competition.

"What do you mean by professional live-streaming platforms? Brothers, put your professionalism on the public chat!"

"Let me say something. Those who are watching the competition live-stream at Bunny Tail are professional viewers. Are you guys alright?"

"With these data, it is obvious who is the one in the limelight and who is the one not faring well. The slackers would have nowhere to hide."

Apart from these discussions, all sorts of numbers could be seen floating on the bullet screen after each team battle. Obviously, it was more convenient to play with the digits with this function.

Zhao Xuming used this function slightly and felt that it was really useful!

These data would normally only float in the upper right corner as a small floating bubble. It would not affect the competition. Once the team battle ended and both sides calmed down and developed, the audience could open the floating bubble to take a look at the internal data and search for more interesting data.

What's more, these figures were moving according to the competition's progress in real time. It gave people the feeling that God controlled the overall data. It was obviously different from the dry viewing experience of the other live-stream platforms.

It was precisely because of the promotional page on GOG's game client and the real-time data function of Bunny Tail Live-Stream that attracted a large number of viewers!

Zhao Xuming was completely stunned!

Didn't we sign a contract to fully promote the ICL league?

The reason why he asked Bunny Tail Live-Stream to put the GPL league on Bunny Tail Live-Stream was mainly as an insurance and because he was afraid that they would cause trouble!

However, the number of people watching the GPL league was four times that of the ICL league. The difference in popularity between the two sides was obvious!

What the hell was happening?

Zhao Xuming realized that all the preparation work he had done previously seemed to have been earned by the GPL league!

Previously, he had hired fake reviewers to create momentum on the internet and work hard to popularize the inside story of the live-stream platform 'faking data'. That was to give everyone the impression that 'Bunny Tail Live-Streams are all real data'. That would then prove the viewpoint of 'there are many people watching the 80,000 ICL league'.

At first, these few steps had been very smooth. They were about to boost the popularity of the ICL league, but they had not expected the GPL league to jump out and pick fruits!

If the 80,000 viewers for the ICL league were all very popular, then what about the 330,000 viewers for the GPL league?

Wouldn't the ICL league be destroyed?

What's more, this was only the data of Bunny Tail's live-streaming platform. There were also ZZ live-streams, Waiwai live-streams, Wolf Fang live-streams, and so many other platforms watching the GPL league at the same time.

The difference in numbers was probably about ten times, right?

Of course, the people who were on Bunny Tail Live-Stream must have been attracted from other platforms. However, the popularity statistics of other platforms were fake. No one could tell that the popularity of other platforms had decreased.

Thus, all the preparation work that he had done previously seemed to have benefited the GPL league...

However, Zhao Xuming could do nothing about it.

That was because Boss Pei had indeed given almost all of the resources for the ICL league, including various recommendation resources, according to the contract's regulations. Even the homepage had the ICL league promotion banner hanging all year round.

Zhao Xuming and Eric were the ones who requested for Bunny Tail to broadcast the GPL league.

What's more, Boss Pei had not really promoted the GPL league. He had only put a promotional page guide in the game and specially developed a small program for the game's data.

However, the final outcome was completely unexpected. The ICL league had been laying the groundwork for so long, and all its popularity had been stolen by the GPL league!

The most annoying thing was that this behavior was completely in line with the contractual rules.

Strictly speaking, the ICL league did not have much loss. It was still profitable as a whole. However, most of its popularity had been taken away by GPL and Bunny Tail Live-Stream.

In other words, Eric and Zhao Xuming had originally thought that they were making a killing. In the end, they realized that they were only making a small profit. The real winner was Boss Pei.

As for the losing parties, it was obviously the other live-stream platforms!

Zhao Xuming leaned back in his chair dejectedly. "It's over. No matter what we do, Boss Pei is still one step ahead of us! We've been tricked by Boss Pei again!"

Chapter 931: Fighting For ICL Broadcasting Rights!

At the same time, Vice-President Zhu Yan was also watching the first broadcast of the GPL league and ICL league at the headquarters of the Shanghai Wolf Fang live-stream.

He frowned his expression grave.

"Boss Pei is really up to no good!"

"This series of methods allowed Bunny Tail Live-Stream to generate such considerable popularity in just a week... All of us are being played by Boss Pei!"

Zhu Yan was the same as Liu Liang on ZZ Live-Stream. He had been keeping an eye on Bunny Tail Live-Stream and did not relax at all.

In the beginning, Bunny Tail's live-stream had promoted itself as a knowledge-based platform. It had successfully labelled itself as a special platform and differentiated it from other live-stream platforms. Thus, it had established a unique image.

Boss Pei said that Bunny Tail Live-Stream was different from other live-stream platforms immediately after that. It would not form direct competitiveness. Some live-stream platforms believed him and did not bother; some live-stream platforms did not believe him but their attention was also focused on the video replay function of Bunny Tail Live-Stream. They invested a lot of manpower to develop similar functions, but the actual effect was not ideal. The audience's reaction was average.

Who would have thought that Boss Pei's words were just a smokescreen? He turned around and bought the exclusive broadcasting rights of the ICL league while various live-stream platforms were arguing with Long Yu Corporation!

These exclusive broadcasting rights had captured all of the IOI players in the country. It had allowed Bunny Tail to live-stream outside of knowledge-based live-streams and had new unique content.

Right on the heels of that, he bought fake reviewers to publicize his real data, expose other live-stream platforms' data falsification, live-stream GPL on his own platform, and develop a small program to specially assist in watching competitions...

The number of people watching the competition live-streaming at Bunny Tail alone was close to 500,000!

There would naturally be live-streamers who did what they loved without looking forward to gaining anything in return when there were more viewers. The entire Bunny Tail live-stream gradually became prosperous!

One had to know that it had only been two weeks since Bunny Tail's live-stream was officially released.

Boss Pei had earned a large number of viewers for Bunny Tail Live-Stream through a series of methods in such a short period of time. He had also made the brand of Bunny Tail Live-Stream stand out from the other live-stream platforms.

What's more, he did not pay much apart from the exclusive broadcasting rights fee!

Zhu Yan had never heard of such a method before. Even though he was considered a senior in the live-stream circle, Boss Pei's combo punch still made him dizzy.

Wolf Fang's live-stream was obviously the most affected among the many live-streaming platforms.

That was because Wolf Fang Live-Stream mainly focused on gaming live-streams. There were only a few of the most popular games in the country now. GOG was definitely considered a big brother. IOI's market share was not good, but it was still considered a popular game due to FV's championship and its influence in the world.

However, the exclusive broadcasting rights of the ICL league had been taken away by Bunny Tail Live-Stream. The GPL's broadcasting rights might still be there, but the users were severely divided because of the small program of Bunny Tail Live-Stream.

The viewers watching the GPL live-stream on Wolf Fang had been showing a trend of decline from the data platform. Obviously, many people had been snatched away by Bunny Tail Live-stream.

How could Wolf Fang live-stream gain popularity without these two pillars? Could they rely on standalone games or veteran games that were no longer as popular as before?

It was completely unreliable!

Zhu Yan could feel an impending crisis, especially with the ICL league becoming more and more popular. He could not sit still anymore.

The actual number of people watching the ICL league on Bunny Tail live-stream was only a quarter of the GPL league, this was ultimately a market with limitless prospects.

It meant that the ICL league must be worth so much money since Boss Pei had spent so much money on the exclusive broadcasting rights.

The popularity of the ICL league was steadily rising from Boss Pei's marketing methods.

From 30,000 viewers at the beginning to roughly 60,000 to 80,000 viewers, this growth was very fierce.

What's more, Long Yu Corporation and Tengda Corporation had spared no effort in promoting ICL league. Bunny Tail Live-Stream had given almost all the most important recommendation spots to ICL league. Long Yu Corporation had also bought advertisements and hot searches crazily. In the foreseeable future, the popularity of the ICL league would definitely increase exponentially.

This attitude represented many things.

The more Zhu Yan thought about it, the more he could not sit still.

The power of Tengda Corporation and Long Yu Corporation was very terrifying. It would be even more impossible for them to obtain ICL broadcasting rights if they really pushed the ICL league up!

If Bunny Tail Live-Stream were to monopolize such a huge amount of popularity, the entire live-stream circle would probably experience another huge earthquake.

Zhu Yan could not sit still anymore. He felt that he had to do something.

As the saying went, it would never be too late.

He had already missed out on the eight million yuan ICL broadcast rights. He would probably have to add another three to four million yuan if he wanted to buy it now. What's more, he would have to see if Tengda was willing to sell it. If he bought it now, he would definitely incur a huge loss.

However, if he did not do anything now, he might not be able to buy anything in the future!

Countless cases had proven that it was meaningless to be headstrong in front of Boss Pei. The more headstrong a person was, the more tragic their death would be. On the other hand, if they surrendered early and cut off their flesh to prevent losses, they might even get a share of the profits.

At that thought, Zhu Yan found Chen Yufeng's contact number and immediately made a call.

He heard that the person in charge of Bunny Tail Live-Stream was the mysterious Boss Ma, but he did not appear often. This Vice-President Chen was in charge of some specific matters. He could also speak to Boss Pei, so it was definitely right to look for him.

The phone rang several times before the other party picked it up unhurriedly.

"Boss Zhu? I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's Saturday. We're not working today. I was playing games at home and didn't pay attention to my phones. What's the matter?" Chen Yufeng said.

Zhu Yan was stunned.

Good lord, at this critical juncture, was Bunny Tail Live-Stream still on a normal double break?

Wasn't ICL opening ceremony and GPL's premiere on Bunny Tail live-stream today? As the Vice-President, Chen Yufeng had to keep an eye on Bunny Tail live-stream headquarters to prevent any unexpected situations.

In the end, he went home to play games and even left his cell phone aside.

If this had been a live-stream at Wolf Fang, he would have been fired by the boss!

Zhu Yan could not help but sigh in his heart. Tengda was indeed different from the other companies... It did not matter how the others worked with Boss Pei working hard like crazy!

Zhu Yan did not dwell too much on this problem after the slight jealousy. Instead, he cut straight to the chase. "Boss Chen, to be honest, I'm calling to discuss a collaboration."

"Bunny Tail Live-Stream has exclusive broadcasting rights for the ICL league, right? I wonder if you're interested in distributing the broadcast rights? We can negotiate the price!"

Chen Yufeng smiled. "Oh? Boss Zhu also wants to buy the broadcasting rights for the ICL league?"

Zhu Yan could not help but frown. "Also? Who else wants to buy it?"

Chen Yufeng said, "Boss Liu from ZZ Live-Stream and Boss Peng from Waiwai Live-Stream have both called me to ask about the distribution of the ICL league's broadcast rights."

Zhu Yan could not help but feel his heart skip a beat as a sense of danger surfaced in his heart.

Great, Liu Liang and Peng Bin, these two old foxes, had actually gotten there first!

Previously, the Vice Presidents of several live-streaming platforms had contacted each other in private. They had agreed to lower the price of Long Yu Corporation so that they could obtain the broadcasting rights for the ICL league at the lowest price.

At that time, the benefits were the same, everyone was in the same boat.

However, everyone's plastic friendship had been shattered.

Obviously, the other live-stream platforms had also seen the current situation clearly. Long Yu Corporation had inexplicably hooked up with Tengda Corporation. The two companies planned to expand the ICL league together and monopolize such a huge amount of popularity.

Which platform would not be anxious after watching it?

They contacted Chen Yufeng in private to ask about the distribution of the broadcast rights. They could naturally be able to grab a wave of traffic as long as they could obtain the broadcast rights for the ICL league before other live-stream platforms.

Zhu Yan could not help but secretly rejoice. It was a good thing that he was smart enough to call early.

If other live-stream platforms obtained the broadcasting rights of the ICL league first, wouldn't he be so angry that he would vomit blood?

However, it seemed like it had not been sold from Chen Yufeng's words?

Zhu Yan asked, "Boss Chen, how did you reply to them?"

Chen Yufeng smiled. "It's Saturday today. Boss Pei isn't working, and I can't report to him. He'll be angry. Whether I should sell the broadcast rights or not can only wait until I report to him on Monday. We can only sell it if Boss Pei agrees."

"However, Boss Zhu, I have to give you a heads up. Boss Pei probably won't sell it."

"That's because ICL league has brought considerable popularity to Bunny Tail Live-Stream based on the recent data. You know this."

Zhu Yan quickly said, "I understand, I understand."

"However, I still hope that Boss Chen can put in a good word for us in front of Boss Pei. I know that the ICL league is quite popular now, so our price will definitely not be low! Everyone can split the popularity and support the ICL league together to obtain greater profits, right? We will remember Boss Pei's kindness as long as Boss Pei is willing to sell!"

They had to admit defeat even though they were competitors.

What would it matter if he said a few good words and gave some money if he could really buy the broadcasting rights of the ICL league?

Zhu Yan's words were indeed reasonable. The popularity of the ICL league was indeed difficult for a platform like Bunny Tail Live-Stream alone. If many platforms were broadcasting and supporting the ICL league, the popularity would definitely be higher. Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation would definitely be happier.

Of course, all of these were just talk. Zhu Yan was ultimately doing this for the interests of his platform.

Chen Yufeng smiled. "I can't guarantee that. Boss Pei has his own thoughts. As his subordinates, we can't make wild guesses or try to influence Boss Pei's decision."

"However, I will report all of these facts."

"I'll call you back after I ask Boss Pei on Monday."

Zhu Yan quickly said, "Alright, thank you, Boss Chen!"

Chapter 932: Prepare For ICL Broadcasting Rights Distribution!

March 12th, Monday...

Pei Qian came to Bunny Tail Live-Stream and held a meeting with Ma Yang and Chen Yufeng.

Bunny Tail's live-stream had been officially released for two weeks up till now. Pei Qian had also been paying attention to Bunny Tail's live-stream.

Chen Yufeng had called today, saying that he had something to report. However, even if Chen Yufeng had not called, Pei Qian would have taken the initiative to come.

That was because he realized that things were getting out of control!

It was one thing for the GPL to start live-streaming in Bunny Tail. If it was a normal live-stream, it would not be much different from other live-stream platforms. However, he did not expect that Chen Yufeng had secretly arranged a small program for data analysis. Bunny Tail Live-stream immediately became a paradise for 'professional viewers'!

On top of that, the ICL league live-stream was becoming more and more popular. Pei Qian could not sit still anymore.

He needed to obtain some background data from Chen Yufeng so that he could judge the current situation of Bunny Tail's live-stream and make the next decision.

Old Ma was still very happy-go-lucky. In any case, in his opinion, all the statistics for Bunny Tail's live-stream were continuously improving. That was enough.

Chen Yufeng displayed the various data changes since the live-stream of Bunny Tail on the projector screen and explained at the same time.

One could clearly see that on Saturday, the number of online viewers and the length of online time for Bunny Tail's live-stream had increased exponentially. On the column map, Saturday's data was simply racing ahead, shooting straight into the sky!

"Boss Pei, Boss Ma, the Bunny Tail live-stream has been developing rapidly ever since it was released. All the statistics have been increasing rapidly.

"The data of other live-stream platforms are mostly confidential, we can't compare them directly but we can infer from the search index and internet discussion statistics of third parties that, based on the current two leagues, Bunny Tail Live-stream has undoubtedly ranked in the top ten live-stream platforms in the country at its peak popularity. What's more, its popularity can even reach top five in professional knowledge and games!"

Chen Yufeng's face was filled with pride. As the direct person-in-charge of Bunny Tail Live-Stream, he naturally had a part to play in achieving such results.

However, this situation was rather serious to Pei Qian.

The words' top ten' and 'top five' did not seem that dangerous, but the current market share of live-stream platforms was different from what Pei Qian remembered seven or eight years later!

Seven or eight years later, the competition between the major live-stream platforms was coming to an end. There were only two or three industry giants left in the entire live-stream industry. Moreover, these industry giants were still seeking to merge under the operation of capital.

At that time, the so-called top ten and top five would actually be completely incomparable to the two or three live-streaming platforms at the head. They would be like ants and elephants in terms of size.

However, in the current situation, the few live-stream platforms that were ranked in the front were still at the peak of competition. The top five live-stream platforms did not have any obvious gap at all. They had different capital support behind them and were developing well.

There was still a lot of suspense as to how the final cake would be distributed in the live-stream industry.

Under such circumstances, the difference between Bunny Tail Live-Stream and other live-stream platforms that were ranked near the top was not like heaven and earth.

As a live-stream platform that had just been released two weeks ago, the popularity and attention it received could be described as a miracle.

If Bunny Tail's live-stream was open to financing, most of the major investment organizations would probably step over the threshold and fight to send money over.

It was precisely because Pei Qian saw this prospect that he felt that it was dangerous!

Chen Yufeng continued, "Of course, there are also many shortcomings in Bunny Tail Live-Stream. For example, professional live-streams are mostly young scholars and lecturers. Their live-stream time is fixed but it is not long enough. What's more, the content of professional live-streams might be stable, but it is difficult to become popular."

"At the moment, most of the popularity is concentrated in the two leagues, GPL and ICL. Hosts in other fields are basically doing something they loved without looking forward to gaining from it. They are basically not sticky to any platforms;"

"At the moment, we have too little exclusive broadcast content. There is only the ICL league. This means that the popularity of the platform is very fluctuating. There were many viewers when there was a GPL and ICL competition, but the popularity would dissipate after the competition..."

Pei Qian's expression relaxed a little.

Yes, wasn't that what I said. It couldn't be all bad news, right?

It looked like Bunny Tail's current problem was in the ICL and GPL league.

There were many viewers in these two leagues. Naturally, all of them would be focused on Bunny Tail live-stream. He had to think of a way.

Chen Yufeng continued, "Boss Pei, Boss Ma, the next step is the future development of the Bunny Tail Live-stream which requires your ideas."

"My idea is that the current popularity of the GPL league has stabilized. There won't be much of a difference whether we continue to publicize it or not. We can't rush knowledge-based live-streams either. We have to slowly accumulate no matter whether it was the popularity of the host or professional content."

"Therefore, any improvement would have to be in the ICL league."

"The ICL league has started very smoothly based on the situation this week. It has brought a lot of popularity to our platform especially with the opening battle of the ICL league!"

"Long Yu Corporation has also spared no effort in promoting the ICL league. How to continue hyping up the popularity of the ICL league's live-stream should be the key to our rapidly increasing number of active viewers!"

"From the looks of it, we have two options: One is to continue playing solo, and we will eat up the popularity of the ICL league. The other is to distribute the ICL broadcast rights. On the one hand, we can withdraw part of the funds, and on the other hand, we can use other platforms to promote the ICL league. However, if we choose the latter, we will definitely not be able to monopolize the ICL league's popularity. Long Yu Corporation would be the happiest winner."

Pei Qian's eyes lit up when he heard that.

Divide the broadcast rights?

He could do that?

The popularity of the ICL league had indeed made Pei Qian a little scared, especially knowing that Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation were going to spend a lot of effort to promote the ICL league. That was even more dangerous.

Pei Qian hoped that ICL league would become popular and put pressure on GOG so that he could spend more money on GOG. However, it would not be good if the live-stream was popular as well.

The best outcome for Pei Qian was that the ICL league became popular, but it did not bring enough popularity to Bunny Tail Live-Stream.

Now, the distribution rights seemed to provide such a possibility!

Selling the broadcasting rights to other live-stream platforms might earn some money in the short term, but the ICL league would no longer be exclusive. Its popularity would definitely be divided by other platforms and the popularity of Bunny Tail Live-Stream would decrease. At the same time, other platforms would definitely help promote the ICL league together after obtaining the broadcasting rights. In addition, Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation would definitely be able to generate more popularity than solo broadcasting. They would also be able to promote the ICL league...

That sounded like a good choice!

Pei Qian pondered for a moment. "Will there be live-stream platforms to buy it? What's the attitude of Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation?"

Chen Yufeng nodded. "Of course. The person-in-charge of ZZ Live-Stream, Waiwai Live-Stream, and Wolf Fang Live-Stream are all interested in buying. Long Yu Corporation would definitely be more than happy to obtain more platforms to broadcast the ICL league."

Pei Qian instinctively frowned.

There were so many platforms vying for it.

It looked like he would not be able to sell it at a low price? He would probably make a small profit.

However, if he could spread the popularity, it would not be a big deal to make a small profit.

If he continued to keep the exclusive broadcasting rights, what if the ICL league gradually became popular, and the popularity was completely monopolized by Bunny Tail Live-Stream? Then, things would get out of hand?

At that thought, Pei Qian immediately said, "Then, distribute the broadcast rights!"

Chen Yufeng was stunned for a moment. "Boss Pei, are you really selling it? This is the only exclusive live-stream that has competitiveness!"

Pei Qian became even more determined after hearing Chen Yufeng's words. "I'll sell!"

Chen Yufeng turned to look at Ma Yang. Did that mean that Boss Ma wanted to express his opinion?

A serious expression appeared on Ma Yang's long face as he asked, "If we sell it... how much can we earn?"

Chen Yufeng was stunned. "Er... if we were to calculate based on the price of 12 million yuan each, we would be able to sell it to four companies for 48 million yuan. We spent 35 million yuan on the exclusive broadcast, so we could earn about 13 million yuan..."

Ma Yang was pleasantly surprised. "We can earn so much? Of course we have to sell!"

"The key is that our platform can continue broadcasting the ICL league after we sell it. Isn't this 13 million yuan pure profit?"

Chen Yufeng :"..."

Man, Boss Ma was not on the same page as normal people.

Indeed, from the looks of it now, Bunny Tail Live-Stream had already profited whether the broadcast rights were distributed or not.

However, this profit was based on Boss Pei's wise decision!

Bunny Tail Live-Stream and Long Yu Corporation had spent a lot of effort to publicize the ICL league with the risk. That was also a cost!

They might be able to earn money by distributing the broadcasting rights now but they would also be giving up the opportunity to monopolize the future. If they did not take this money and insisted on broadcasting alone, they might earn even more in the future.

However, it would probably be difficult to explain it to him looking at Boss Ma's situation now.

Chen Yufeng had no other choice. Boss Pei and Boss Ma had already reached a consensus. Even if this matter was settled, he had to sell it even if he did not want to.

"Alright, Boss Pei. I'll inform Zhao Xuming and contact the other live-stream platforms to distribute ICL's broadcast rights," Chen Yufeng said.

Still a little worried, Pei Qian added, "Remember to distribute the broadcast rights. Money is not the priority, understand?"

Chen Yufeng was stunned. "Huh? Boss Pei, what is the priority then?"

Pei Qian: "Er... friendship! Sincerity! In short, everything else other than money."

Chen Yufeng frowned slightly, deep in thought.

Pei Qian did not dare to make it too clear. He could only let Chen Yufeng figure it out himself.

He only hoped that Chen Yufeng would provide a friendly price to various live-stream platforms for the distribution of the broadcast rights. It would be good as long as the price was not too high and they did not earn too much money.

Chapter 933: The 'Sincerity' Of Each Live-Streaming Platform

Chen Yufeng was filled with doubts after the meeting. He searched for Zhao Xuming's number in his cell phone's contact list while trying to figure out what Boss Pei meant.

What puzzled him was that Boss Pei said that money was not the priority. Friendship and sincerity were the priority.

What was friendship and sincerity?

Every live-stream platform was a competitor, and there was no friendship between them. What friendship and sincerity could there be?

Not only would he not gain friendship, he would also be mocked by other live-stream platforms for being silly and naive if he sold the broadcasting rights cheaply.

Thus, Boss Pei's intention was definitely not to sell the broadcasting rights cheaply.

The so-called putting friendship and sincerity first should mean the competitor putting friendship and sincerity first.

The other party's friendship and sincerity depended on their performance.

What's more, Boss Pei had specifically emphasized that the focus was not on money but on things other than money.

What were these things?

Chen Yufeng could not figure it out either. What's more, even if he did, it would not be appropriate for him to say it directly. It would seem like he was extorting him.

However, it did not matter. He could let the vice-presidents of the various live-stream platforms fully express their subjectivity. If they took the initiative to propose it, Chen Yufeng could consider it based on the conditions that everyone raised.

Chen Yufeng had a rough idea at that thought. He immediately called Zhao Xuming.

"Hello? Boss Chen, what's the matter?" Zhao Xuming's voice sounded very enthusiastic.

Bunny Tail Live-Stream and ICL league were still in their honeymoon period after all. Their previous cooperation had been more pleasant. Most of the popularity had been earned by Bunny Tail Live-Stream, Zhao Xuming was still considered to be earning money, so his attitude was still very positive.

Chen Yufeng repeated Boss Pei's words, which meant that he intended to distribute the broadcasting rights of the ICL league.

Strictly speaking, after buying the exclusive broadcast rights of the ICL league, Bunny Tail Live-Stream could distribute it freely without violating the current contract. There was no need to seek the opinions of Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation.

However, he still had to inform him.

On the one hand, it was out of courtesy. On the other hand, it would be more convenient for him to contact the person-in-charge of all the live-stream platforms with Zhao Xuming.

Zhao Xuming raised his voice. "Really?"

There was a hint of disbelief in his surprise.

What was Boss Pei thinking? Why would he choose to sell the broadcasting rights of the ICL league at this juncture?

The ICL league was becoming more and more popular!

In fact, it was definitely better for Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation to distribute the broadcast rights. The distribution of the broadcast rights had nothing to do with them in terms of profits but the popularity was different after all.

Many platforms would live-stream the ICL league. There would definitely be more viewers, more popularity, and more publicity. There was no doubt about that.

In other words, this matter was definitely beneficial to Zhao Xuming and Finger Games.

On the other hand, distributing the rights meant that it would no longer have monopoly broadcasting rights for Bunny Tail Live-Stream. It also gave up the opportunity to attract more traffic to Bunny Tail Live-Stream and bring more popularity while earning money. It looked short-sighted and did not seem like Boss Pei's doing.

If Chen Yufeng had not mentioned this, Zhao Xuming would definitely not have mentioned it himself. He would not have asked for a rebuff.

However, he could not ask for more since it was Boss Pei's idea and Chen Yufeng had taken the initiative to mention it!

Zhao Xuming said, "How about this, Boss Chen? I'll make an appointment with the person-in-charge of a few live-stream platforms. We'll have a meal in Shanghai tomorrow and talk about it in detail. How about that?"

Chen Yufeng knew that such a huge matter could not be decided online directly. They had to meet, so he agreed readily.

What's more, Chen Yufeng could also take this opportunity to hint to the heads of the various live-stream platforms to let them think about how to express their 'friendship' and 'sincerity'.

...

...

March 13th, Tuesday...

Shanghai, Long Yu Corporation headquarters.

"Yo, Boss Chen, this way please!"

"Boss Zhu, you're here? Please come in."

"Boss Peng, Boss Liu, come, come, come. They're already in the conference room."

Zhao Xuming was beaming with joy as he welcomed them warmly.

Of course, he had reason to be happy.

Previously, the Vice-Presidents of these live-stream platforms had felt that it was too expensive to buy the broadcasting rights of the ICL league for seven to eight million yuan. He had called these people one by one, but had repeatedly been rejected by their unwillingness to buy it.

Now, shouldn't these people come to Shanghai obediently and buy back the broadcasting rights for the ICL league?

Of course, Long Yu Corporation would not be able to earn a single cent from distributing the broadcast rights this time. However, it was still the same as before. There was no money but there was popularity. Thus, Zhao Xuming would definitely not lose out.

The Vice Presidents of these live-stream platforms were a little embarrassed, but they were still full of smiles.

Business was business. There had been some friction previously but it was a good thing that Boss Pei was willing to sell the broadcasting rights of the ICL league and share the popularity with everyone.

Soon, everyone sat down in the conference room and prepared to discuss business.

In fact, Chen Yufeng had already spoken to these people over the phone yesterday. Everyone knew very well about this matter. Therefore, they quickly got to the main topic after Chen Yufeng and Zhao Xuming briefly introduced themselves.

Chen Yufeng looked around at the Vice Presidents of the various live-stream platforms who were present today. There were some familiar faces and some he did not recognize.

There were seven or eight people today but there were only three to five platforms that could be sold in the end. However, this did not affect other platforms from joining in the fun.

Chen Yufeng said, "Everyone, regarding the distribution of the ICL league's broadcast rights, Boss Pei said that money is secondary. The key is still our sincerity. Have you considered it?"

The Vice Presidents of several live-stream platforms looked at each other. Actually, everyone already had an idea in their hearts, but they were not sure who would speak first.

In the end, ZZ Live-Stream's Liu Liang was the first to speak out.

"Boss Chen, of course we can agree to Boss Pei's sincerity. Money is definitely one aspect. We have decided to give 12 million yuan to buy the broadcasting rights for the ICL league."

"In addition, our platform also has a few live-streamers who are good at GOG and IOI. They are still in the contract period. We'll give them to Boss Pei as well! We'll continue to pay their salaries accordingly. Two years of the contract would be equivalent to one million yuan."

Peng Bin from Waiwai Live-stream was the next to speak. "We're offering 10 million yuan. In addition, we have a live-stream program. The viewership of every episode is not bad. We can give away the broadcast rights for free. Of course, we also have a few good live-streamers..."

Zhu Yan from Wolf Fang live-stream said, "We have a popular mobile game that is exclusive. It is not very popular but it is still worth a bit of money. In addition, we will offer 11 million yuan."

Another live-stream platform said, "I'm sorry, Boss Chen. Our cash flow has been a little tight recently. We can offer a maximum of eight million yuan. However... We just happened to have a dispute with a big broadcaster recently. We've already shelved him. We can take advantage of the situation and send him to Bunny Tail live-stream. We can use his three-year contract as a compensation. It's about five million yuan. We'll pay him the salary while he live-streams at your place. What do you think?"

The bids of the live-streaming platforms were all different. However, they were all worth about 13 million yuan each.

These Vice Presidents wondered what Boss Pei meant after receiving Chen Yufeng's call yesterday.

Money was not the first priority. It must mean that Boss Pei wanted them to give Bunny Tail more live-stream content!

Anyone could tell that the live-stream content of Bunny Tail Live-Stream was relatively simple at the moment. There were basically no reliable broadcasters. The popularity of the website depended on the GPL and ICL league. Once the competition ended, the popularity of the website would drop by more than half.

Boss Pei's attitude was very clear since he lacked content.

They could only ask for a portion of the money, but each live-stream platform had to hand over some live-stream content in exchange for the broadcasting rights of the ICL league!

The Vice Presidents pondered for a moment. Boss Pei had repeatedly emphasized the keyword 'sincerity'. They could not afford to give him less money.

Boss Pei was so calculative. If the price was too low, Boss Pei might get angry and not sell it.

Boss Pei was now sitting steadily on the fishing platform after all. He was not in a hurry to sell the broadcasting rights for ICL league. It could be sold to just one company or many other companies.

The reason why Boss Pei did not make things clear was obviously because he wanted to see the sincerity of the live-stream platforms. If they were not sincere, Boss Pei would definitely remember them.

Considering the popularity of the ICL league, 13 million yuan was a high but sincere price.

The money might be a little high, but Long Yu Corporation and Bunny Tail Live-Stream had invested a lot of resources and taken the risk in order to promote the ICL league. These platforms could only be considered to be picking fruits. It was reasonable to pay a premium.

As for the live-stream content that was attached to the money, there were obviously only two types.

The first was competitions and programs with exclusive broadcasting rights. If they gave the broadcast rights to Bunny Tail live-stream, they would be able to lose a certain amount of money. The other was streamers. Those who did not get along with the platform could take the opportunity to send them away.

For example, one of the live-stream platforms was having a conflict with one of their own big streamers.

The platform had hinted many times to this streamer to ask for gifts from the audience and play the rankings. However, this streamer had repeatedly rejected it. He had signed a huge contract but was unable to generate enough profit for the website. The Vice-President of the platform had long disliked him. He could take this opportunity to reduce the price of this contract to a portion of the money needed to sell the broadcasting rights of the ICL league.

While the platforms were still paying the live-streamers' salaries, it was still quite appropriate to get rid of an unprofitable live-streamer in exchange for the live-stream rights of the ICL league.

What surprised Zhao Xuming and Chen Yufeng was that there were five live-stream platforms bidding this time!

The main reason was this special way of paying.

They did not have to take out 13 million yuan directly. Instead, they take out seven to eight million yuan and use the other content resources of the platform to make up the value Some exclusive content would be distributed to Bunny Tail's live-stream in exchange for the broadcasting rights of the ICL league. These platforms felt that they did not lose out.

Thus, some cash-strapped live-stream platforms were also tempted.

The broadcasting rights for this ICL league were different from before.

Before this, no one was sure if it would be popular or not. That was why everyone was hesitant and did not act decisively. Now that they saw Boss Pei taking the lead and the ICL league getting better, several large live-stream platforms were scrambling for it...

The other live-streaming platforms naturally could not sit still!

It was just like a product. Most passers-by would not take a second look if there were no customers around. However, everyone would have to take a look if there were people around!

Therefore, the vice-presidents of these platforms bid one after another and looked at Chen Yufeng expectantly.

These exclusive live-streaming resources and streamers were lacking in Bunny Tail Live-Streams, however, they were in fact more or less 'forcefully pieced together'.

It was hard to say if Chen Yufeng and Boss Pei would be willing to take the job. Thus, the Vice Presidents were a little apprehensive.

Chen Yufeng listened to everyone seriously and nodded slightly.

He could feel that these platforms had the intention of forcing their way through. For example, one of the platforms would send a popular live streamer who was in a conflict, while the other platform would reduce the price of a relatively unpopular sports competition. There was also another platform that would pack up more than twenty contract live streamers who did not produce good effects...

However, it was obvious that these platforms knew what they were doing. They knew that they were trying to make up for it forcefully, so their overall valuation had been lowered.

Chen Yufeng felt like he was in a large second-hand market. There were all sorts of things that he could use and could not. He was surrounded by people who were eagerly promoting to him.

Chen Yufeng thought about it. These things might have been forced, but they were indeed lacking in Bunny Tail Live-Stream. It was not impossible to take them all.

No one would complain about the content of a live-stream regardless of whether it was useful or not.

However, even so, he had to give these platforms a few harsh words. He could not be treated as a fool.

At that thought, Chen Yufeng pulled a long face. He cleared his throat and said, "The valuation of the items that you have offered me are still alright but I'm sure everyone knows if they are really worth that much money, right?"

The Vice Presidents' expressions changed and they felt a little guilty.

Most importantly, they were indeed in the wrong. If they insisted on quibbling, there was a high chance that the negotiations would collapse.

No one dared to negotiate with Boss Pei because no one knew what Boss Pei would do if they did...

However, they could not bear to add any more.

They could not possibly sell everything they had just for the broadcasting rights of an ICL league, right? It would not even be enough if they sold their own main streamer!

Zhao Xuming knew that something was amiss when he saw this.

He was jealous that the ICL league broadcasting rights could be sold for so much money, however, he also hoped that this distribution would succeed.

After all, the ICL league would become more popular with every additional platform!

Zhao Xuming quickly tried to smooth things over. "Everyone, calm down."

"Actually, I have already seen everyone's sincerity. However, Boss Chen is indeed losing out."

"I have a suggestion. Bunny Tail Live-Stream will broadcast the ICL league 30 seconds faster than the other platforms. That way, no one will suffer any losses. Boss Chen can go back and explain to Boss Pei. How about that?"

The Vice Presidents of the live-stream platform looked at each other and nodded. "Alright!"

It was not a big problem for them to be slower by 30 seconds. The impact would be minimal. Most viewers on the platform would not rush to the Bunny Tail live-stream just because of 30 seconds.

These 30 seconds could indeed attract some viewers for Bunny Tail Live-Stream. It could be considered a small addition to the distribution contract.

Chen Yufeng nodded. "Boss Zhao's suggestion is not bad. Since that's the case, Bunny Tail Live-Stream has no problem. Let's finalize the details and then sign the contract!"

Chapter 934: ICL Wants To Copy Real Time Data Function Too

Soon, everyone discussed briefly and asked the legal team to repeatedly confirm some of the details in the contract. This matter was then finalized.

The reason why it was so fast was mainly because the other live-stream platforms were in a hurry.

The ICL league competitions had limited competitive rounds. They would lose popularity as they delayed.

Most people did not have any objections to Zhao Xuming's suggestion of delaying the broadcast of the game by 30 seconds. There were instances of a delay of a few seconds or tens of seconds in live-streams due to internet lag and source changes.

It was common for some live streamers to delay one or two minute delay in order to prevent themselves from being peeped at.

Many competitions had different types of delays on live-stream platforms, television stations, or video software. Sometimes, they could even be delayed for a minute or two.

Thus, most people felt that Zhao Xuming's suggestion to "make Boss Pei feel better" would not cause any substantial damage to everyone's broadcasting rights.

Even if a small portion of people felt uncomfortable, the other platforms had already accepted it. If they did not accept it, they might continue to argue. They might even be attacked by the other platforms. They would not dare to fall out with Boss Pei and cause him to not sell the broadcasting rights of the ICL league. Thus, they did not say anything after some hesitation.

No one had the courage to stand out. What's more, all the platforms that bought the ICL league broadcasting rights had the same rules. Even if they were to suffer losses, everyone would suffer together.

His colleagues were discussing the details of the contract with the legal team of various live-stream platforms. Zhao Xuming brought a few Vice Presidents of live-stream platforms to a high-end restaurant nearby to celebrate the success of this cooperation.

To be honest, Zhao Xuming was still very jealous.

Previously, he had only expected the ICL league's broadcasting rights to be at around 32 million yuan.

Even so, most live-stream platforms would still find it expensive!

On the other hand, Boss Pei had bought the exclusive broadcasting rights for 35 million yuan. In just two weeks, just distributing it nearly doubled the price!

According to the amount on the final contract between Bunny Tail Live-Stream and the other five live streaming platforms, their cash income was 48 million yuan. In addition, there are miscellaneous items, such as broadcasting rights of other competitions, live streamers contracts, and so on, the value added together was almost 65 million yuan!

Of course, this price was a little high. The broadcasting rights for other competitions were rather high after all. What's more, these live-streaming contracts were the basically ones that other live-stream platforms did not want. Their real value had to be discounted.

However, no matter what, he had earned about 13 million yuan!

Strictly speaking, Boss Pei and Chen Yufeng did not raise the price at all.

However, Boss Pei was famous for not losing out. The Vice-Presidents of various live-stream platforms did not dare to fool him. Thus, even though Boss Pei did not raise the price, the price had reached a relatively high level.

He had spent 35 million yuan on the exclusive broadcast. Now, he was distributing it to other platforms. All of his income added up to 65 million yuan...

He had earned thirty million yuan in two weeks without much effort.

Zhao Xuming really wished that the 30 million yuan was earned by himself!

However, he had no choice. The truth was that the other live-stream platforms ignored him when he was promoting the ICL league. However,the other live-stream platforms immediately rushed over like ducks when Boss Pei said that he wanted to distribute the ICL league's broadcast rights!

He had to give in.

What's more, strictly speaking, Boss Pei's 'second-tier selling' was doing Zhao Xuming a favor.

He very generously bought the exclusive broadcasting rights and helped Zhao Xuming when the broadcasting rights of the ICL league were lowered and almost could not be sold. Now, he was distributing the broadcasting rights so that many platforms could live-stream the ICL league. It could better increase the competition's popularity and also help Zhao Xuming.

That was why even though Zhao Xuming was jealous, he knew very well that the ICL league's price would not be as good as it was now if Boss Pei had not been a second-tier trafficker.

Thus, he only felt sour in his heart and did not show it. He still had to treat them to a meal.

Even though the price was a little high, the Vice Presidents of other platforms still obtained the broadcasting rights of the ICL league despite almost giving up hope. They were given popularity, so it was not bad.

...

Everyone left happily after having their fill.

Zhao Xuming arranged for his subordinates to send these Vice Presidents back to the hotel to rest. Today's ICL broadcasting rights distribution had finally come to an end.

Everyone dispersed in no time. The Vice Presidents brought the broadcasting rights of the ICL league back and reported happily.

If they prepare for a day or two, prepare the relevant recommendation spots and publicity materials, and then access the live-stream signal from Long Yu Corporation, he would be able to officially start airing and generate popularity.

Everyone was anxious to have their ICL league broadcasted, so they did not stay long.

Soon, only Zhao Xuming and Zhu Yan were left in the hotel lobby.

"Boss Zhao, I have something to discuss with you."

Zhu Yan had been drinking quite a lot at the table previously. Many people thought that he was drunk, but he was not drunk now. Instead, his eyes were very clear.

Zhao Xuming was stunned. "Oh? What is it, Boss Zhu?"

Zhu Yan said, "Can you also open the data platform for ICL league and create a real-time data function similar to the Bunny Tail Live-Stream's GPL league?"

"The real-time data from Bunny Tail's live-stream is indeed very useful. Many viewers have gone to Bunny Tail's live-stream because of this data."

"It's probably impossible for us to obtain GPL's background data, but Boss Zhao should be able to provide ICL's data, right?"

"This way, I can better increase the popularity of ICL league."

Zhao Xuming nodded. "Sure, of course!"

He had wanted to copy it for a long time.

This real-time data function could be used as a support to allow the audience to better judge the situation on both sides and the players' performance. It had proven to be very useful.

This thing had no patent protection, of course he had to copy it!

He would also do a similar program and arrange for other live-stream platforms at the same time. It would definitely be helpful for the promotion of the ICL league.

Zhu Yan was very happy. "Thank you, Boss Zhao! I'll go back and prepare for the live-stream of the ICL league. We can communicate at any time if there are any problems!"

Zhao Xuming returned to his office to rest for a while after sending Zhu Yan off. Then, he immediately arranged for someone to develop the real-time data function.

...

...

March 14th, Wednesday morning.

Chen Yufeng had finalized the details of the contract with other live-stream platforms at Long Yu Corporation's headquarters yesterday. He had distributed the broadcasting rights for ICL league this time. He rushed back to Jingzhou to report the good news to Boss Pei after resting for a night.

The distribution of the broadcast rights this time could be said to be very profitable. Boss Pei should be satisfied, right?

Chen Yufeng arrived at Bunny Tail live-stream's conference room. Boss Pei and Boss Ma were already there.

"Boss Pei! This is the ICL broadcasting rights distribution contract that we have finalized with other live-stream platforms. Please take a look."

Chen Yufeng proudly handed a stack of contracts to Boss Pei.

Pei Qian took it and flipped through it.

All sorts of complicated details made him dizzy, but he could still see the amount of money on the contracts clearly.

12 million yuan, 10 million yuan, 11 million yuan, 8 million yuan, 7 million yuan!

The last two platforms gave less money but they also gave other things. One of them gave the broadcasting rights for a certain exclusive competition, while the other gave a three-year contract for a popular live streamer.

Pei Qian quickly calculated the numbers and became quiet.

How the f*ck could they sell for so much money?!

Previously, Pei Qian had thought that the exclusive broadcasting rights would cost 35 million yuan. What's more, there would be a premium. If he were to sell more, he would only earn three or four million yuan, right?

He did not expect to earn 13 million yuan in cash alone. Coupled with all these miscellaneous things, he would earn even more!

The broadcasting rights for the other competitions, the contract for the live-streamers, and so on might not seem to be of much use, but Bunny Tail's live-stream had just been released not long ago after all. All sorts of content were urgently lacking.

These content could fill in the gaps in many zones.

The previous Bunny Tail live-stream was just a viewing platform for many people to watch the GPL and ICL league. Now, the content was much richer. It was becoming more like a proper live-stream platform!

Pei Qian remained silent.

Initially, he had only wanted Chen Yufeng to ask for less money. In the end, not only did he not ask for less, he even took a huge pile of other things!

What was going on!

Chen Yufeng raised his thumb. "Boss Pei, now I understand why you want to distribute the ICL league. This step is really brilliant!"

"We bought the exclusive broadcasting rights of the ICL league. It was equivalent to not spending a single cent. We only spent some recommendation resources on the platform to earn back the broadcasting rights of ICL, 13 million yuan, and a lot of live-stream content on the platform!"

"The ICL league might look quite popular at the moment, but it would take a lot of effort for our platform to take it all. Second, we can't be sure that the ICL league will definitely become popular in the future. It is wise to sell it at a high price now!"

Pei Qian looked up at Chen Yufeng, almost rolling his eyes in anger.

Why didn't you say that earlier!

If you had said that earlier, I might not have sold it!

Can't you think for yourself?

Pei Qian realized that his subordinates were a bunch of people wise after the fact. They would only come to the conclusion that Boss Pei was wise after earning all the money every time. What were they doing earlier then?

If you had analyzed it earlier, would Boss Pei have been so 'wise' so many times?!

Pei Qian felt very tired.

On the other hand, Ma Yang was still flipping through the contracts, trying his best to check the details in the contracts. His long face was filled with a serious expression. Those who did not know would think that he really understood.

"Eh, Brother Qian, what's the meaning of this? Bunny Tail's live-streaming of the ICL league would be 30 seconds faster than other platforms?"

Chen Yufeng quickly explained, "Oh, this was suggested by Boss Zhao. He was afraid that we would be at a disadvantage, so he added a little more."

Pei Qian: "..."

Why the f*ck was he afraid of suffering losses!

Have you ever seen a profiteering way by first losing out through buying exclusive broadcasting rights and then double the profits in two weeks? Did Boss Zhao suffer too many blows previously and become mentally unsound?

As for being 30 seconds faster than other live-stream platforms...

Pei Qian vaguely felt that something was amiss. He had a feeling that something would happen with this rule.

However, the contracts has been signed. He had already earned more than ten million yuan in cash. He had also transferred all of the broadcasting rights and live-streaming contracts...

Compared to these things, a mere 30 seconds seemed to be unable to cause more waves in Pei Qian's heart.

The problem that Pei Qian was worrying about now was that he had spent 35 million yuan on the exclusive broadcast rights of the ICL league for Bunny Tail Live-Stream. Now, not only had he earned back every cent, but he had also earned 13 million yuan!

He should think about how to spend this money...
