Originally, UZI, who had the highest net worth in the League, earned an annual salary of around three million dollars, or over twenty million yuan.
Of course, that was just his annual salary. It did not include bonuses, advertising, livestream contracts, gift revenue shares, and so on.
For now, they would only discuss annual salaries.
An annual salary of three million dollars was already at the ceiling level in the League.
But compared with the current treatment of Holographic PUBG players, UZI's annual salary could only be considered middle-tier—on the lower end of the middle tier, at that.
This was no exaggeration. With so many major corporations pouring in, all of them loaded with money, the prices they offered were naturally far higher than the previous standards of the gaming industry.
The teams backed by League investors had few major corporations behind them. Most were invested in by rich second-generation heirs or medium-sized companies.
The companies investing in Holographic PUBG teams now were the most famous and wealthiest enterprises in various countries. Naturally, the prices they offered were beyond anything the League could match.
The highest player contract announced so far belonged to the current ninth-ranked player in Holographic PUBG, whose ID was Mojing Destiny God.
He had been recruited by Microsoft.
His annual contract was an astonishing sixteen million dollars, or just over a hundred million yuan!
That was more than five times UZI's salary!!
And that still did not include bonuses, advertising, and the like.
When it was announced, the entire gaming world was thrown into an uproar.
What kind of annual salary was that? Damn, even the average salary of an NBA professional player was only seven million dollars.
This rookie gamer had actually landed a sixteen-million-dollar annual salary contract.
And he was only the ninth-ranked player
