A few days later, an official announcent from WE on Weibo dropped a deep-sea bomb into the esports circle, affecting everyone involved in the industry, whether they were fans or staff.
In less than half an hour, it shot straight to the top of the trending topics!
WE Esports Club: "After the regrettable end of the S7 finals, our club has discovered many shortcomings. To ensure better developnt and to aspire to achieve better results next year, we have accepted the offer from Black Swan Group, handing over the team for restructuring and reformation under a stronger and more professional company. The new WE will once again beco a powerhouse, sweeping through the esports scene as it did five years ago! The entire original WE managent team wishes the new WE glorious success!
Reviving WE’s glory is our duty!"
At the end of the statent, WE tagged Black Swan Group’s official Weibo.
Imdiately, Black Swan Group forwarded WE’s Weibo and included the sa ssage.
"Reviving WE’s glory is our duty!"
If this was just a club’s acquisition, it wouldn’t have climbed the trending list so quickly. The real catalyst was the transfer information WE released afterwards, which is the source of the uproar.
"LPL Player No. 001, Mingkai (ID: Clearlove7) reconnects, nurturing the jungle, Factory Director, welco ho!"
"LPL Player No. 006, Jian Zihao (ID: Uzi) officially joins WE, Uzi, forever the god!"
"LPL’s top jungler Liu Siyu (ID: MLXG) officially joins WE, red-clad reckless fighter on a hunger strike!"
"LPL’s top support player Shi Ming (ID: Ming) officially joins WE, Uzi isn’t the full Crazy Dog without Consort Gou!"
"LPL’s new top laner Bai Jiahao (ID: 369) officially joins WE, 369 joining WE will show the world that LPL has top laners too!"
Aside from Xiye and 957 who stayed, the entire forr WE team underwent an overhaul, and the officially signed players include almost all the top players from the LPL. Each of these players could be the lead in any other team, yet now they all belong to WE. RNG suffered the most, being hollowed out by Gu Bai, and if they can’t find replacents quickly, they might have to promote trainees from their academy.
Regardless, there’s no doubt that WE in S8 is a Galaxy Battleship!
With Uzi, Factory Director, and others each forwarding this Weibo along with the ssage "Reviving WE’s glory is our duty," the sensational acquisition in the esports circle was finally confird.
As WE veterans, Weixiao, Juanmao, and Ruo Feng, among others, forwarded the Weibo, everyone knew the red dynasty has returned after several seasons of silence!
Under WE’s official Weibo, 60 million fans comnted one after another.
"Go go! Reviving WE’s glory is our duty!!"
"If Xiye hadn’t perford well last year, he might not have stayed, right? The new boss is ruthless; not only did he hollow out RNG, but he also exiled all the old players. Still, I love it! Go WE! Red dynasty!"
"Let inform you here, the new boss is the National Heartthrob Gu Bai, the one who shares a na with the principal. I knew soone who could befriend the principal would eventually get involved in the esports circle, but I didn’t expect it to happen so fast, so thrillingly, and so forcefully! I can only say being a WE fan is so blessed, cheers to the heartthrob for life, Heartthrob loves !"
This shocking upheaval in the esports circle was seen by Gu Bai as he sat in the back of an elegant Bentley, and he also forwarded it on his Weibo, which had already reached 4 million followers, including the sa ssage.
What’s more exciting for him is that his main task, 1 billion Reputation Value, has surpassed the 1/10 progress mark, aning that during this high profile period, over 10 million people throughout Hua Country have heard of Gu Bai’s na.
Additionally, Task 5, 100 million Influence, has reached 1/10 completion as this century acquisition in the esports circle garnered significant influence among over 10 million people.
This doesn’t an WE has that many fans; while WE’s fans contribute a portion, the majority actually cos from Uzi, Factory Director, and other player fans. In the LPL Division, most fans are player fans, with few club fans, usually following players wherever they go.
However, this 10 million influence did surprise Gu Bai.
This further solidified Gu Bai’s determination to secure a championship for WE; if nothing unexpected happens, winning a championship will directly complete this task.
"Super Intelligent Robot No.1 is ready, please select robot type, after selection it will be awarded.
Choice 1: Combat type, possessing unparalleled physical attributes surpassing all humans throughout history, with a chip containing 170,000 martial arts and combat techniques, suitable for host’s security work. Since it’s fully human-simulated, it can only resist small firearms, unable to counteract large firearms.
Choice 2: Intellectual type, possessing unparalleled intelligence surpassing all humans throughout history, with a chip containing thousands of industry knowledge, suitable for host’s think tank work (divided into research robots and business robots), can only choose one."
Finally having the chance to claim a Level 2 System reward, Gu Bai hesitated briefly before decisively choosing the first option.
Confession!
Gu Bai is just afraid of death!
As his fortune grows, the encounters and events also increase, and even though he craves the second robot, there’s no choice—can’t have the fish and the bear’s paw.
Anyway, nine more robots are waiting for selection, so it’s better to prioritize personal safety first.
The old saying goes, the wealthier you are, the more you fear death; this statent is not unfounded.
"Selection completed, robot will possess an independent human identity and arrive within one day to the host."
Upon finishing, the system vanished.
Since acquiring the system, it has always co and gone like the wind, never giving Gu Bai ti to react.
"President Gu, we’ve arrived at school."
As Gu Bai pondered, the driver’s voice called from the front seat.
Raising his head and glancing at the entrance of Shanghai Theatre Academy, Gu Bai realized it has been nearly half a month since he last visited school after returning from Kyoto.
The driver swiftly exited the vehicle, opened the Bentley’s door, and Gu Bai slowly stepped down.
Since it’s class ti, there aren’t many people in the Shanghai Theatre Academy campus, and Gu Bai checked his phone to review the course schedule, discovering there’s a class slot for him too, and he ambled towards the classroom.
Regarding the donation for the teaching building, although Gu Bai’s funds have been credited, the foundation design is completed, the earliest construction start ti could only be placed in the winter break.
