There has been a lot of news in the recent transfer period, and one team has been talked about again, and that is the RNG team, which has attracted a lot of attention in the industry due to the issue of unpaid wages and card contracts.
This incident not only shocked the trust of fans in the club, but also exposed the deep problems of the esports industry in the process of commercialization and professionalization. RNG, as a veteran team in the LPL, has won many honors for the region, but the behavior of arrears of wages and restrictions on player mobility is clearly contrary to the spirit of professional sportsmanship.
This kind of behavior not only harms the interests of players, but also poses a threat to the health of the industry as a whole, and in essence, the club's economic problems may be related to overexpansion, monolithic business models and a post-pandemic market downturn, but these are no excuses for harming players.
For this problem, LPL officials also stood up, and the latest rule is that if the team is in arrears of wages, it will not be able to register new players, or even be unable to participate in next season's competition.
After the official pressure of the LPL, it was recently reported that RNG has successively settled the wages with the players, which gives rise to another topic, that is, they were revealed to have deliberately not paid back the money, and now the bosses are paying the money out of their own pockets.
Now this topic has aroused heated discussions among a large number of netizens, and some people complain that RNG knew this was the case, so why bother in the first place? Now that you've paid off your arrears, you'll be able to compete next season, but the lineup is miserable, and you're going to play soy sauce next season, do you have anything to complain about?
