Dragon Phoenix Gaming is another of those teams (like KaiZi) created by those rich Chinese Starcraft fans/sponsors to compete in the China Team Championship.

The team KaiZi Gaming was created during the first season of Chinese Team League. The 4 owners are all billionaires (in US dollars), and also xiaose's friend in real life, who is one of the Chinese caster duo, Scboy and organizer of the team league. The richest of them is also his friend since childhood and became cousin-in-law when they grew up. They created the team in order to support their friend's business.
However, when KaiZi was found, these four billionaires owners already have disputes who they would hire. After a season of quarrel, two of them decided to create another team, Dragon Phoenix Gaming, and declared themselves "Dragon and Phoenix", or "卧龙“ and "凤雏” in Chinese, which is the nickname of Zhuge Liang (诸葛亮) and Pang Tong (庞统), the two smartest person of Three Kingdom era of China.
Ironically, this DPG, also earns a nickname of "大屁股“, or "Big Butt" from Chinese fans, which stands the same initials.

There was rumor that Newbee was trying to acquire Dark some days ago, and TIME said he practiced with Dark for the GSL Super Tournament, but it seems DPG would pay more, so Dark join DPG instead. Actually for whatever they would pay, the cost of running a Starcraft 2 team for a year is still a fraction of such billionaire's one day income. It is unknown who they are targeting next right now since there is a shortage of teamless and competitive Korean and Chinese player left.
TY will join TSG, anyway.
