Rewrite the Technological Landscape

On January 1st, there was a long queue outside the Shanghai International E-sports Hall. The Dafeng Group took the lead in building this hall. It is specially used for domestic and foreign e-sports events, and it has become an e-sports symbol in Shanghai.

Meng Qian personally came to the scene to help the finals of the first "Ancient War" Global League. Before the game, he came to the backstage and called the captain of the team to come out.

Standing opposite Meng Qian at this moment is the Human Emperor SKY. With the gradual decline of Warcraft, SKY also began to turn to "Ancient Warfare", but because of his age, it was a bit difficult to become a professional player, and was finally defeated by Meng Qian. Pulled over to become the team coach.

"How is Kang Heng's psychological counseling going?"

"It's hard to say. Recently, there are always a group of people chasing Kang Heng and scolding him, saying that he has led young people. Mr. Meng, the game is still suffering from huge controversy until now. The more popular the game is, the more people scold it. Now because of Kang Heng With Heng's outstanding performance, he has become a target, a target for a group of people to vent their anger on."

Meng Qian drove the upsurge of e-sports in China ahead of time, but unfortunately the public opinion of this era has not followed Meng Qian ahead of time, "You go and call Kang Heng over."

"yes."

"So mournful?" Meng Qian raised Kang Heng's head, which was lowered.

"I'm not dead."

"Then do you think it's a mistake to do this?"

"I made a mistake with the hammer! Did I provoke someone by doing what I wanted to do? Did I kill someone or set it on fire?! Everyone wanted me to die! Just because I did what I liked well! What did I do wrong!" Kang Heng's eyes were filled with obvious anger and a trace of aggrieved tears.

Meng Qian put a hand on Kang Heng's shoulder, "Do you have to talk to them?"

"I don't want to talk to them, I don't want to see them, but they insist on scolding me!

I thought I just had to keep working hard, but the harder I worked, the more they scolded me! What do you want me to do? I made it to the finals, but as a result, more people scolded me. "

Meng Qian stared at Kang Heng for a few seconds, "What do you want to do now."

"I want to win the world championship."

"Why?"

"I don't want them to see my jokes!"

Meng Qian looked at Kang Heng and fell silent.

At 6:00 p.m., the half-hour stage performance before the finals began. At 6:30 p.m., the players from both sides were introduced, and at 6:58 p.m. the competition started.

The two sides of the game are the Huaxia team and the Goryeo team respectively, and a five-game three-win competition system is adopted.

In the first round of the game, Kang Heng took away a key quadruple kill and scored 1:0.

"Kang Heng deserves to be Kang Heng, the Korean team can do nothing about him." Gu Junhui, who came with him backstage to watch the game, said confidently after watching Kang Heng's performance.

However, Meng Qian's expression was extremely serious.

In the second game, Kang Heng took another crucial team battle and took away five heads from the opponent. The Huaxia team successfully won 2:0.

At this time, Meng Qian suddenly got up.

"Mr. Meng, where are you going?"

"I'm going to prepare the manuscript."

In the third game, Kang Heng once again staged a one-hit five-handed operation by the gods, helping the Huaxia team win the championship trophy of the first "Ancient Warfare" Global League.

"Kangshen! Kangshen! Kangshen!" Shouts to Kang Heng resounded throughout the scene.

The host excitedly invited Kang Heng and others to the stage and asked them to raise the trophy.

When Kang Heng and others were almost done celebrating on stage, the host invited Meng Qian to come on stage.

After Meng Qian came to the stage, he beckoned and asked Kang Heng to come up and stand by his side.

"Seeing the game the way it is today reminds me of something from my childhood.

When I was in elementary school, my parents often worked night shifts in the factory. After school, I would turn on the TV and watch cartoons very coolly, but my parents were very strange. They often agreed to come back at 9 o’clock and ended up at 8 o’clock. up.

Although I have practiced the ability to know if it is my parents when I hear the sound of a bicycle parked outside the door.

Although I'm always prepared to cool down the TV with a cold compress.

But as long as my parents leave work early, I can always get beaten, and every time they will say, watch cartoons, it is mental poison.

Later, when I was in junior high school, I had no chance to watch TV because I was a boarding student. Then I fell in love with playing basketball. Whenever I had time, I would play basketball, even skipping classes to play basketball.

Then, I started getting beaten again, and my teachers and parents told me that playing basketball was a dead end.

In this way, I went to high school, and I started to get in touch with computers. I was almost the first batch of high school students in China who resident in Internet cafes.

I started to get in touch with World of Warcraft, I got in touch with CS, and then you know, I was almost killed.

So people always ask me why I choose to start a business in my freshman year, because I think entrepreneurship should not be beaten. "

There was a burst of laughter from the audience, and Meng Qian continued, "But an interesting thing happened. Not long after I started my business, I suddenly saw people saying on the Internet, why China's animation is so bad, why can't it make animation like the Neon Kingdom? Well, do you know that the Neon Kingdom has achieved cultural output through animation!

I was dumbfounded when I read these comments, huh? cartoon? Cultural export? What about psychoactive drugs?

A few years later, I saw that Yao Ming was advertised as an idol on the Internet, the Great Wall of China, the spirit of China, and the 2008 Olympic Games gave us a lot of encouragement. At the same time, many people are criticizing why Huaxia's basketball is so bad, and why the gap between the CBA and the NBA is so big.

Then I was dumbfounded again, playing basketball? Spiritual idol? Did you say there is no future? "

This time, no one laughed, but fell silent, "What is right in this world? What is wrong?

It's hard to tell, right? I actually have my standards, which are laws and morals. Take out the laws and morals and take a look, and don’t touch anything that violates the laws and morals.

Which things do not violate the law and morals, should they at least not be wrong?

Is it illegal to play games? Is it morally corrupt? How many people know what the life of a professional e-sports player is like?

I have watched Kang Heng come to today step by step. I have watched him train 16 hours a day at the age of 15. I have seen him go to the hospital for two life-threatening operations at the age of 16. I have seen him at the age of 17. In order to balance games and studies, he only sleeps 4 hours a day.

And Kang Heng is a very talented player. Behind him, no one knows how many less talented people have put in more effort than him, but they will never get honors like him.

This is professional e-sports players. If there is no passion, tell me what supports them to come this way? Is it money? In the past few years, e-sports players could not make any money at all, and had to pay back money.

Is it a name? To this day, e-sports players are still suffering from online violence.

A person uses his own efforts to make a name for what he loves, right? "

The scene became quieter.

"Now that I've covered this, I'll talk about it in depth. Many people say that e-sports and games are two different things. Let's talk about games. Games are called spiritual opium. I really want to ask about this. Does the nicknamed friend really understand opium?

Today I don't want to discuss this matter from the arguments that are often seen on the Internet. I hope to speak with data. We have conducted an experiment in the past two years.

Take playing games as a task and ask children how much time they must play every day.

The test results show that when children are asked to play games every day and play games for more than three hours at a fixed time every day, 90% of the children have a strong sense of aversion to the game. We have published the content of this test on the Internet before. Interested friends can search by themselves.

Many people think that games are opiates. In fact, games are just a choice for many people who want to have fun. I always remember the feeling when I watched anime, played basketball, and played games. What I wanted was during that time It’s as simple as that. The reason why games have affected so many people is because it’s easier and cheaper to obtain.

So is it really wrong for people to pursue happiness?

Is this world, does not allow the existence of happiness?

Our Dafeng Group is a well-known company that works overtime, but many of our employees are playing games during lunch breaks and night breaks. We even have an internal Internet cafe. Shouldn’t we let everyone take a break?

Are students supposed to study when they sleep? Employees are supposed to work when they are not sleeping?

For those friends who are chasing games every day, I am really curious, how do you still have time to surf the Internet after working so hard?

Have you never thought that there is such a thing as guidance in this world?

I always wonder whether we should learn to guide and guide everyone, especially young people, to allocate their lives reasonably. Excessive games are of course wrong, but the problem seems to be with this person, shouldn’t we Go and tell him that you should arrange the game time reasonably, why you have to tell the game, it's all your fault.

I used to think that if my parents sat down and told me, you can watch TV, you can play basketball, you can also play games, but not more than 2 hours a day, and no more than 4 hours on weekends, because you You still have to study, and you can try more entertainment projects, not just these, there are actually many beautiful things in life. In my imagination countless times, I think I should be able to listen to it a little bit, right?

No matter how bad it is, I really can't listen to it. My parents should be able to call me to listen to it.

But at least that way the message I get is don't over entertain and learn to allocate time wisely instead of saying anime is wrong, basketball is wrong, games are wrong, what is wrong with them? Is it wrong to bring happiness to people?

Of course, game companies also have their own responsibilities. We need to avoid settings that induce players to over-invest, including time and money, so that the game can return to the essence of happiness as much as possible, and make a game that can really make people happy. , This is the responsibility of the game company.

Let the game industry become more and more standardized, slowly wash away the sand, make games that can make players happy, make money, and not maliciously guide, so that game manufacturers can survive, this is a problem that the industry should consider.

And this, in the final analysis, is also guidance, so the real solution to the problem should be to guide the industry and guide users, right?

Eliminating games is just eliminating one of the countless ways to obtain happiness, and it does not solve any problems. "

Kang Heng looked at Meng Qian, and couldn't hide the emotion in his eyes. The controversy about the game has been going on for so many years, and Meng Qian has never responded positively, because it is useless to respond to this thing, and those who blame the game will blame the game no matter what you say.

And as Meng Qian gained more and more social status, what he said also had more and more social influence, so he always avoided talking about topics that were too controversial.

But today, Meng Qian responded positively to his views on the game for the first time on this occasion, and he will definitely be scolded later.

And Meng Qian has been emphasizing one thing, the essence of the game is happiness.

After so many years of tacit understanding, Kang Heng understood that Meng Qian wanted to remind himself why he had embarked on this path and why he was able to get to where he is today.

If he got this championship because of anger, then he has lost his original intention. This is not what Meng Qian wants to see. Meng Qian wants him to have it because he is happy to do this thing.

Feeling that Kang Heng was looking at him, Meng Qian turned his head to look at him, and patted his head habitually, "World champion, do you have anything to say?"

Kang Heng tried his best to hold back his tears, turned his head to look at the camera, took out his student ID card from his pocket and patted it on the table, "If you want to scold me, come to Tsinghua University to find me, I won't talk to the scum who can't pass the Tsinghua University exam Rubbish nonsense."
