Luo Xin exposed the LPL salary, bluntly saying that the salary alone will starve to death in Shanghai, and the other career has a higher income, Luo Xin exposed the annual salary of about 160,000 in LPL, and emphasized that it is difficult to live in Shanghai with a salary alone, this remark has attracted widespread attention, in the eyes of many fans and viewers, the top players in the LPL division earn a lot of money, but Luo Xin's remarks reveal a little-known reality: LPL salary may not be as high as everyone thinks.

First of all, the annual salary of 160,000 yuan is indeed not particularly outstanding compared to the high salary in some industries. Especially in a megacity like Shanghai, the cost of living is high, and daily expenses such as rent, transportation, and food are relatively large.

Luo Xin's "starvation to death on wages" is not an exaggeration, after all, the rent of an ordinary single apartment in downtown Shanghai can account for most of the income, and if you don't rely on additional income such as live streaming, it has indeed become a big challenge to make ends meet.

Secondly, the income structure of the e-sports industry is diversified, although the basic salary of LPL hosts is relatively fixed, but this is often not their main source of income, live broadcast and endorsement are additional income for many players and host commentators, and these incomes are crucial to their living standards, live broadcast allows players to interact directly with fans and earn gift income, which is also an important source of income for many players after retirement or during the off-season.

However, it is worth noting that this revenue model also exposes some hidden dangers in the esports industry: not only are the income levels of players uneven, but their long-term stability is also low, and with the changing interests of fans and the competition of live streaming platforms, the live streaming income of players sometimes faces a certain degree of uncertainty, in other words, relying on live streaming and endorsement income to make a living, although feasible in the short term, it is not a long-term solution from the perspective of career sustainability.

Therefore, Luo Xin's exposure is not only a revelation of the current income status of LPL staff, but also reflects that the e-sports industry is still in a stage of development, and many problems and challenges need to be solved urgently.
