A Broken Mirror Reunited In An E-Sports Ch 27

Outside the arena, Xiao Yun’s popularity skyrocketed and he became famous overnight.

Entertainment companies that have a relationship with RS pushed all their marketing accounts, major anchors, and event-related platforms to promote Xiao Yun’s highlights, using keywords such as “A-Group God-tier Assistant” and the title “New Generation Heavenly Assistant.”

This is not a new term, as the gaming community is already familiar with these kinds of titles.

Within a day, everyone from anchors to commentators was talking about Xiao Yun’s heavenly assistant, and press releases were flying around, all saying that RS’s second-generation assistant is another true genius.

As a result, Xiao Yun’s popularity and votes for the People’s Choice Award rose significantly, and various companies began to consider endorsing him.

At first, Rong Yi thought this matter had nothing to do with him, but he kept receiving inquiries from all sides while training in the club every day. Strangely, most of these inquiries were about Xiao Yin.

Even some unfamiliar brand partners came to ask, and Rong Yi chose to respond to one of them and met with a well-known gaming keyboard manufacturer called S-HTP.

He had a good impression of this gaming company because the business contract they offered was only for him, even though he had no way of promoting it in front of the camera.

The boss was his fan and watched his live streams every day. Rong Yi even played a couple of live-streaming matches with him.

The boss asked him politely, “Captain Rong, are you available? I have a small matter to ask you about, would it be convenient?”

ongyi replied, “Please speak.”

Then he decided whether or not it was convenient depending on the situation.

The boss over there typed for a while and finally asked, “We just want to know if there are any special recent developments in VIT’s business dealings? We’re very sorry, we don’t feel comfortable asking directly, so we wanted to ask you, Captain Rong, to help us find out.”

Rong Yi was stunned, “Special developments…?”

He wasn’t very familiar with VIT’s business operations, and he hadn’t heard of any special business developments.

The boss saw his confusion and, after hinting for a while, finally said directly, “We just want to know if VIT has any taboos in business cooperation, such as not working with partners who have hired certain spokespersons or business collaborators…”

Rong Yi looked at it for a while before finally understanding.

“So you want to work with someone, but you’re afraid of stepping on VIT’s business toes, is that it?”

The boss obediently sent a nodding expression.

Rong Yi looked at the expression and fell into thought.

He couldn’t control VIT’s business, but he also couldn’t imagine how important this matter was to these brand partners.

That their future business dealings with VIT might be affected by who they chose to work with now seemed a bit too convoluted.

Rong Yi said, “I don’t quite understand. Is there any specific reason?”

“Captain Rong doesn’t know?” A voice message came from the other side, which Rong Yi quickly read and was soon retracted.

“Brother Yin previously refused to endorse several brands, some teams, and managers in the league, and he stated that if there were people he didn’t like cooperating with them, VIT would not consider working with them.”

“I just want to ask you about Brother Yin’s blacklist in case we step on a landmine. I want to ask Captain Rong, who does Brother Yin dislike in the league?”

Rong Yi: “…………”

He thought for a long time, then typed and sent: “I don’t know, should I go ask?”

Xiao Yin’s level of being in the know seemed to be beyond his imagination.

The boss seemed both amused and exasperated by Rong Yi’s response, thanking him while reminding him: “It’s okay if it’s not convenient to ask. We’re just concerned.”

Rong Yi sat cross-legged on the gaming chair, which swayed back and forth, facing the lake and garden outside the glass room.

He lowered his eyes and thought for a moment before sending a message to Xiao Yin in a relatively stable tone.

【Easy】:Some business partners I know have asked me if there are any taboos in our VIT business cooperation or if you have any disliked business partners?

After sending the message, he waited for a reply.

Two seconds later, Xiao Yin didn’t reply, so he put his phone aside, thought for a moment, and then picked it up again.

“If it’s not convenient to say, it’s okay.”

As the team captain, he had a habit of not interfering too much in other departments, and the boss of VIT was still Xiao Yin.

Soon, his phone vibrated.

A brief and sharp three words.

“Come up here.”

Considering his relationship with Keyboard Boss — the 100,000 endorsement fee and the two waterfriend matches — Rong Yi decided to risk his life and go.

It was a quiet morning in the villa.

Rong Yi went upstairs and came to Xiao Yin’s door, raising his hand and lightly tapping twice.

“Ah Yi, come in.” Xiao Yin’s voice came out.

Xiao Yin’s room was still the same as before, with the curtains drawn halfway, half-light and half-dark. He leaned against his office chair, wearing a black casual outfit, his eyebrows and eyelashes indifferent and cold.

Rong Yi sat down in front of him as before, feeling inexplicably like he was being called to the principal’s office back in middle school.

He decided to take the initiative: “Is it inconvenient to answer my question? If it is, I’ll just say I don’t know.”

“Which company are they from?” Xiao Yin asked.

Rong Yi looked it up and reported the name of the other party: “Keyboard Merchant, I had a cooperation with them before, their brand name is ATP.”

Xiao Yin tapped his fingertips lightly on the armrest of the chair, as if thinking, and then said, “Got it. You can tell him that they’re fine.”

Rong Yi tilted his head slightly, his peach blossom eyes raised slightly, “Fine? Are there problems with other companies?”

This small action of his was completely unconscious, and Xiao Yin’s gaze paused for a moment before he said, “No.”

He leaned back slightly, his slender fingertips resting on each other, his voice as indifferent as usual: “Our business cooperation strictly selects the quality of merchants and their past endorsement styles. We have slightly more resources that can be exchanged than other clubs, so the industry will ask us for our opinion.”

“That’s how the small circle is. The e=sports industry is shallow, so cooperation partners will consider this aspect to some extent.”

Xiao Yin seemed to know what he was thinking and explained it very frankly to him.

Rong Yi nodded and picked up his phone, “So I’ll reply to him like this.”

“As for who I don’t like.”

Rong Yi had just typed half of his message when he suddenly heard Xiao Yin speak. He looked up and met his calm and deep gaze, “I just returned to the country, and I don’t know anyone in the league. But I trust your judgment.”

“If there is anyone you dislike, remember to tell me.”

“Since the team has just been established and put into operation, I don’t want to step on too many landmines,” said Xiao Yin in a calm voice. “Our VIT team will also reject some collaborations. I need your advice on this as well.”

“Well, it’s not impossible…” said Rong Yi after some thought.

After all, he had been in the industry for so long, and he was a team captain who had dealt with countless business partners.

E-sports is a new industry, and there are many capital forces entering the market in China, making it a mixed bag. New teams really need to pay attention to these aspects.

“There are quite a lot of them. I’ll go downstairs and get a list from the business department and send it to you later,” said Rong Yi seriously. “These are just some of my personal experiences, and I hope they can be useful.”

Xiao Yin loosened his fingers and looked at Rong Yi. His lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he just nodded. “Okay.”

Rong Yi replied to the keyboard vendor and went downstairs to get a collaboration list from the business department. He wrote a brief introduction on his computer and sent it to Xiao Yin.

Xiao Yin received it and replied ten minutes later, “I’ve read it and will seriously consider it.”

Upstairs.

The business department sent a message to Xiao Yin, “Are you really going to follow the recommendations given by Yi Shen? Some of the collaborators on the list may violate your taboos.”

“Such as?” Xiao Yin typed.
