That’s true, with the esports industry being so developed nowadays, and before clinching this season’s KPL championship, each member of Team YFD was already valued at over a billion each. Now that they’ve defended their title, their worth must have grown exponentially.
This bit of compensation probably doesn’t mean much to him as a boss.
"Ye Xian, come over for the interview!"
Ye Xian put away her phone and hurried over, but not before casting a disdainful glance at her Hello Kitty pajamas.
What a blunder, she should have taken the chance to buy a formal outfit during the break. Now she had to appear on camera in pajamas again, her image completely ruined!
After the interview, it was almost dark.
Zhou Lu had been waiting outside the exhibition hall for a while, and when she saw Ye Xian come out, she excitedly fluttered like a little sparrow dancing on a branch, "God Ye! You’re finally out!"
"Enough already, they’re teasing me and you’re joining in too."
"How can this be teasing? Brother Ye, you don’t know how cool you looked in today’s game, so many of Ye’s Fans wanted to have your babies right then and there!"
Ye Xian’s eyelids twitched, "Really?" As much as they might want to, she certainly didn’t have that capability.
"By the way, Brother Ye, when did you join Team YFD, and when did you sign up for the KPL tournament? I go back to my hometown for a bit, and you’ve made such rapid progress. Are you planning to dump me?"
Zhou Lu pouted and complained non-stop, to which Ye Xian laughed and pulled her into the car, "Let’s get in the car and then we can talk about it."
Ye Xian described everything that had happened recently to Zhou Lu in detail.
After hearing it all, Zhou Lu held her cheeks with stars in her eyes, "Brother Ye, sometimes I really doubt if you’re human or not?"
Ye Xian: "...Who are you calling out?"
"Hehe, no, it’s because you’re too outstanding, Brother Ye, outstanding to the point of seeming unreal. Oh right, Brother Ye, do you know how many fans you gained from today’s game?"
Zhou Lu held up five fingers.
Ye Xian: "Five hundred thousand?"
Zhou Lu: "Five million!"
Ye Xian was astounded as she took out her phone and opened Weibo.
The real deal, not only did she gain five million followers, but her super topic ranking also shot up to the top three overnight. The top three, that’s the realm of first-tier celebrities and hot idols. With her current status, she had actually made it that far.
She had anticipated a fan increase with a win, but not by such a staggering number. It seemed her decision was the right one; capitalizing on esports to solidify her fan base was indeed an effective strategy. This meant that even without any resources in the following months, playing a few games each month would be enough to keep her popularity stable!
As she was mulling over this, her phone rang.
It was Jiang Wen calling.
She had been banned, so what did he want with her?
"Ye Xian, my treasured darling, you are way too amazing! Congratulations, congratulations on winning the KPL championship, securing your legendary status, and skyrocketing your fan base!"
As soon as she answered, Jiang Wen showered her with flattery that left Ye Xian feeling dizzy, "Hold on, whether I secure a legendary status or boost my fan base is none of your concern anymore, right?"
"How can it not be related! I’m still your agent!"
"Agent?" Ye Xian laughed lightly, "I’ve been banned, so what use do I have for an agent?"
Jiang Wen retorted, "Pah pah pah, what ban? You can’t just say things like that. Our Xianxian’s darling has loads of resources, I’ve got a dozen in hand right now, and countless brands have been blowing up my phone, I’m swamped!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xian straightened her back from the couch, "Jiang Wen, clarify this for me. Weren’t all of my resources halted by Bo Tingshen? Why are they suddenly coming through?"
