Episode 201 eSports League
Dojun called Mina every day while going through this incident. Because she was worried about Mina.
“Mina, what are you doing?”
– brother. Did you call again? Stop it now! I’m not a kid. I’m fine now.
“I am your protector.”
– I am your brother’s guardian! Anyway, I’m eating with Minho oppa right now, so I’ll contact you later.
Dojun chuckled.
‘Because I let you meet me once, I don’t think about leaving you at all.’
Since meeting Minho Jang, Mina has been meeting with Minho Jang every single day.
‘Good.’
This was exactly what Dojun wanted.
“okay? Enjoy your meal. “Don’t hang up on me.”
It was about an hour later that Mina contacted me again.
– Brother, what time are you coming home today?
Unlike usual, Mina’s voice was a little nervous.
“huh? “If I leave work on time, it’s 7 o’clock?”
– okay. I’ll cook dinner for you. let’s eat together.
Although he thought it was a little strange, Dojun agreed.
“okay. “See you in the evening.”
* * *
“ha. “It’s a mountain beyond a mountain.”
Dojun had dinner with Mina and drank soju. She did so because Mina asked her to have a drink.
‘In the end, Jang Min-ho makes a similar choice to his previous life.’
Mina said that Jang Min-ho is thinking of quitting being a professional gamer.
– I tried to stop him, but he said he couldn’t do it. Although he will not be punished by the law, he says that it is true that he received money to fix matches, and that he cannot continue to play Galaxy Craft. brother? What do we do? Can you please meet Minho oppa and stop him?
The two people must have become quite close, so Mina asked with an earnest expression.
‘Is this also the inertia of history that Saetbyul spoke of? Are you finally going to quit being a professional gamer?’
That’s what I thought, but I couldn’t just leave it like this.
‘It’s not that my brother-in-law who works as a courier is bad, but I still want to let him do what he likes in this life. Is there no way?’
Dojun turned on the computer and searched for news.
Even though quite some time had passed, the ‘Galaxy Craft match-fixing’ incident was still in the news.
[The impact of eSports match-fixing is growing larger over time.]
[This week alone, three professional gaming teams were disbanded. And the Air Force’s professional gaming team is also said to be considering disbanding.]
Dojun sighed.
‘In the end, this too turns out to be like my previous life.’
Perhaps because the incident occurred much faster than in the previous life, there were far fewer game teams disbanded than in the previous life. However, Galaxy Craft’s popularity plummeted.
‘It has to be that way. ‘This incident goes beyond simple match-fixing.’
Dojun saw a new article.
[Is the eSports Association okay as is? We were aware of match manipulation, but our complacent response made the situation worse.]
People no longer trust eSports associations or leagues.
‘Phew… I’m frustrated.’
At that time, a new article appeared again.
[Sky Sports, the broadcaster in charge of Galaxy Craft, announced that it will not operate the Galaxy Craft competition.]
Dojun shouted ‘Uh’ without realizing it.
‘What happened? Not the MSB eSports channel? ‘Sky sports?’
In a previous life, the MSB eSports channel was shut down due to a match-fixing incident. But in this life, the result was different.
‘Why sky sports?’
After thinking for a moment, Do-jun remembered something that announcer Han Ah-reum had told him before.
‘Did you say that Sky Sports won the competition with MSB for the right to run the Galaxy Craft competition?’
In a previous life, Sky Sports was a small sports channel. However, in this life, thanks to my relationship with Dojun, I grew greatly and became capable of winning in a medical competition with MSB.
Dojun remembered the announcer Han Ah-reum, whom he liked at the time.
‘this
… I never thought it would happen like this.’
Dojun immediately called announcer Han Ah-reum.
– Mr. Dojun?
Announcer Han A-reum’s voice was usually cheerful but burdensome, but not today. I had no strength.
“Areum, it’s me. I just saw the news. “Are you okay?”
– … … Dojun, can you buy me a drink?
* * *
The next day, Do-jun was able to hear Areum’s entire story while drinking.
“How is the atmosphere at the company?”
Areum answered after drinking a glass of beer.
“Company? If everything goes well, it will be sold… Since Galaxy Craft is completely out of business, there is a high possibility that it will simply be disbanded. “Everyone is busy looking for other companies.”
“sorry. “I guess I told Areum to become a professional eSports announcer for no reason.”
Areum chuckled at Dojun’s words.
“When I see you like this, Mr. Dojun, you look really cute. “How can you not give in to me even if you tease me like that?”
“yes?”
“Oh, it’s okay. It just burns my stomach. Dojun, do you know what? I became a professional eSports announcer and was able to survive in this world to this age. All my motivations are gone. “I was able to survive as a professional announcer thanks to Dojun.”
A large number of announcer applicants came into the country. Since all the announcers were young and pretty, it was difficult for the older announcers to survive.
“still… … .”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Han Ah-reum said with a smile after taking a sip of beer.
“Then why don’t you create a position in Dojun’s company?”
“yes?”
“haha. just joke. Don’t look serious. ah! “It’s time to go home!”
Han Ah-reum took a shot of the remaining beer and stood up. Areum, who had talked about the second and third rounds every day, returned home after finishing only the first round that day.
That was more of a burden for Dojun.
‘driving me crazy. ‘Isn’t there a better way?’
I thought about it, but it wasn’t something I could do.
‘We can acquire Sky Sports, but there is no way to utilize that company.’
After returning home, Do-jun lay down on the bed and sighed. But then his cell phone rang.
‘huh? ‘You’re Marc Merrill, CEO of Riot Games, right?’
Dojun answered the phone right away. Dojun, who had been asking how each other was doing for a moment, was surprised by Mark’s words.
‘what? ‘League of Legends has been released in North America?’
I kept getting calls from Mark. However, Do-jun, who was busy with Mina’s work these days, left a message saying he would contact me later.
‘Oh my God, was this news the reason you contacted me then?’
Dojun couldn’t say he didn’t know, so he pretended to know.
“Sure. I also logged in and tried it. However, the ping was slow so it didn’t work.”
– ah. Yes. I hope it will be released in Korea as soon as possible, but I think it will be a few years later.
‘Released in Korea?’
Dojun recalled his past life.
‘It was first released in North America in 2009, and then in 2011? It was released in Korea, right? But why was the Korean release delayed?’
Dojun asked.
“Mark, why are you releasing it in Korea a few years later?”
– That’s right… … Because it’s hard to find a publisher. Who would publish a game that has just been released?
Dojun thought, oh no.
‘I know League of Legends is going to be a big hit, but no one knows right now.’
Dojun recalled the ‘Legend of League’ match that had taken place countless times in his past life.
‘Among them all, the World Cup was the best. It was broadcast all over the world, and the World Cup theme song was a global hit!’
For a moment, Dojun’s eyes sparkled.
‘League! broadcast!’
Dojun said to Mark.
“Mark, let’s release LOL (LEGEND OF LEAGUE) in Korea.”
– yes? To do that, the publisher… … .
“Let’s go with self-publishing. Let’s create Riot Korea in Korea. I will pay all the costs.
Anyway, 99% of Riot Games was owned by Dojun.
– then… I guess it’s no problem. All right. Let’s proceed right away.
Dojun clenched his fists after hanging up the phone with Mark.
‘I have League of Legends and Soccer Online. And Galaxy Craft wasn’t as ruined as it was in its previous life.’
Of course, it seemed like it would be ruined as time went on, but Dojun thought that if he did well, he could be saved.
‘What if I get a broadcasting station here?’
Dojun pictured himself running a league match around the world with three games.
‘This works!’
Do-jun immediately contacted Kim Jae-hwan.
“Director, there is one more company we need to buy.”
* * *
The next day, Kim Jae-hwan contacted me right away.
– CTO, the price of the acquisition of Haneul Sports is being negotiated, but I don’t think there will be any problems. But are you really planning to take all your manpower with you?
“yes. “Every single one of us will remain the same.”
– Well, I think we can try lowering the price further. And the Dongwha PLUS acquisition is over.
“ah! “Fairy tale PLUS?”
When I thought of Donghwa PLUS, Yu Myeongsu came to mind.
‘That bastard won’t mind chewing!’
Dojun realized that the moment he had been waiting for had come.
After returning, Do-jun did not forgive anyone who messed with his family.
“Thank you for your effort. Please send a copy of the contract by fax first.”
– All right.
After receiving a copy of the contract, Do-jun stood up and went straight to the detention center where Myeong-su was.
Yu Myeong-su, who saw Do-jun, initially asked him to save him. However, when Dojun showed Dongwha PLUS’s stock transfer contract, he could not stand it and shouted.
“you… You said you were making a game! Do you know that all of our country’s gaming teams went bankrupt because of you? What do you think people will think if they know this? “Do you think your game company will work?”
Dojun laughed out loud.
“ha ha ha.”
Do-jun said while looking at Yu Myeong-soo.
“Why is it because of me? It’s because of match-fixing bastards like you. And then.”
Do-jun looked directly into Yu Myeong-su’s eyes and said.
“I have an idea. “There is a way to resolve all of that and develop further.”
Yoo Myung-soo made a bewildered expression at Do-jun’s words.
“what? Is there a way to fix all this and develop further? Don’t talk nonsense. “No matter how much money you have, this is not a place where you can do anything on your own!”
Dojun stood up and said.
“okay? See if it’s true or not in prison. And now is not the time for you to worry about me.”
“that… What does that mean? you… “What have you done again?”
Dojun said with a cold expression.
“Do you think I’ll forget what you tried to do to my brother? Yoo Myung-su, you will meet your friends soon.”
“friend… rani?”
“The ones who were fixing the match like you this time. When I told them that it was because of you that this manipulation was discovered, they wanted to see you very much. maybe… I think we’ll meet together at Kampang. “Maybe it could be motivation.”
Yoo Myung-soo’s face turned blue at Do-jun’s words.
“ah… no! no!”
Dojun turned around. Yu Myeong-su shouted from behind as if pleading.
“CEO Hwang Do-jun! please… please! dragon… … .”
Dojun left the reception room without listening any more. After leaving the detention center, Do-jun looked at the sky.
‘Good.’ very good.’
* * *
The next day, Do-jun met Jang Min-ho.
“I heard you’re working at a logistics center these days?”
Minho Jang scratched the back of his head and answered.
“yes. What do you want to do when you play? “I have to work.”
“They say it’s very difficult… … .”
Minho Jang said with a smile.
“It’s worth it.”
Do-jun was reminded of his past life when he saw Jang Min-ho. To be exact, it was Jang Min-ho in the lost memories.
‘I can see that smile here.’
Dojun liked this smile.
“But isn’t it disappointing? “I quit being a professional gamer.”
“It would be a lie if I said I wasn’t disappointed. But I don’t qualify. Even if it didn’t actually go as far as match-fixing, I’m still the guy who took the money.”
Other people might find it frustrating, but Do-jun liked Jang Min-ho like this.
‘I guess that’s why he put up with my asshole-like personality in my past life and kept bringing me side dishes. And that’s what saved my life.’
Dojun said openly.
“You like Mina, right?”
Jang Min-ho lowered his head at Do-jun’s words, not knowing what to do.
“Don’t you want to marry Mina?”
“… How could a guy like me marry Mina… … .”
Dojun chuckled.
“why? I think Jang Min-ho and Mina are a match made in heaven. “In my opinion, the only person who can live with that gibberish is Jang Min-ho.”
Jang Min-ho raised his face at Do-jun’s words.
“jin… Are you Sim?”
“Sure. But it doesn’t work the way it is now.”
Minho Jang lowered his head again.
“also… … .”
“Minho Jang, please become a professional gamer again.”
Minho Jang raised his head.
“That’s not possible. I am… … .”
“But I’m not a Galaxy Craft pro gamer.”
“yes? Galaxy Craft… “No?”
“yes. There is a game that is gaining popularity in the United States right now. “It’s called Legends of League.”
Jang Min-ho’s eyes widened at Do-jun’s words.
“Oh, I heard that too. It’s similar to DOTA, but different. “I also saw a video posted on YouTube.”
Dojun’s eyes lit up.
‘It’s not like I lost interest in the game. then!’
Dojun said.
“That game will be released in Korea soon.”
“yes?”
“And the league will be held. how is it? “Don’t you want to compete in the league as a Legend of League player?”
Minho Jang opened his eyes wide. If only that were possible, Jang Min-ho had no wish.
“But who would take a guy like me…” … .”
Dojun chuckled.
“Me. “I will create a gaming team.”
“You’re creating a Legends of League gaming team?”
Dojun shook his head.
“no. I plan to create a gaming team that operates Galaxy Craft, Legends of League, and Soccer Online. how is it? “Are you interested?”
Minho Jang nodded after a moment.
“yes. “If I could, I would definitely do it.”
Dojun said with a wide smile.
“great. “Then, there is something you need to do, Mr. Jang Min-ho.”
