Chapter 102 I didn’t make up a story (ahem, recommended)
The news materials provided by Chen Xiao are tens of thousands of words long, and are rich in pictures and texts (I borrowed the Internet cafe camera to take selfies).
Every news material is the most authentic and original material, without any fraud.
This is a masterpiece created by Chen Xiao, who was chatting with people in an Internet cafe when he was bored during the summer vacation.
The protagonist of News No. 1 is Huang Pan, who is fourteen years old and is in the second year of junior high school in Jiangcheng No. 3 Middle School. He has been addicted to the legendary game for a long time.
Jiangcheng No. 3 Middle School is divided into a dormitory class and a boarding class. The former is for urban children who can go home every day, while the latter is for the convenience of rural children and they can live in school.
Huang Pan is a kid who lives on campus. When he and his classmates went to a black Internet cafe to play Legend, he was deeply attracted by the thrill of killing monsters and exploding equipment and the sense of accomplishment of teaming up to kill enemies.
In 2000, the gap between urban and rural areas was still very large. There were many urban children in the class who looked down on rural children, and their food, clothing, and supplies were better than those in rural areas.
In real life, Huang Pan has low self-esteem and depression, but in the game, he is at a higher level than many of his classmates. This sense of accomplishment is not found in real life.
It costs two yuan to surf the Internet for an hour, and it costs 30 yuan to recharge the card for 4,500 minutes.
After Huang Pan became addicted to games, in addition to going to the Internet cafe on Saturdays and Sundays, he would also climb over the wall to go out all night long after his classmates in the dormitory were asleep at night, and went to class the next day in a daze.
After staying up all night, what energy do you have to go to class? I slept in class almost all day long, and my grades plummeted.
An all-night package costs five yuan, provides six hours of Internet access, and a point card is gone in half a month.
Huang Pan's monthly Internet spending is more than 100 to 200 yuan.
However, the living expenses given to him by Huang Pan's family were only more than 100 yuan a month.
This money is far from enough to get online.
What should Huang Pan do?
Or they ask their families for extra-curricular books or tutoring materials on the pretext that the school needs to make up classes.
Parents of children in rural areas hope that their children can jump over the dragon's gate, study hard, get into a good university, and get rid of poverty.
Therefore, when children have requirements for learning, their families almost always respond to them.
Tutoring classes or tutorial books costing several hundred yuan, even if parents grit their teeth and go out to borrow them, they still have to give them.
Or you can borrow money from your classmates. Students can still borrow money for 5 yuan or 10 yuan, but in this case, they usually borrow money but never get it back.
Many students were too embarrassed to speak to Huang Pan because of their reputation.
The money was all used up, so Huang Pan had no choice but to steal it.
Steal money from your roommates and family to ensure your online time and credit card consumption.
In the end, Huang Pan was discovered by the school. After repeated teachings failed, Huang Pan was asked to drop out of school.
After dropping out of school, Huang Pan wandered around the streets of Jiangcheng.
When Chen Xiao was chatting with him, she didn't know where the money he got from surfing the Internet came from.
The second protagonist of the news is Luo Wei, a high school student in the city. The conditions of high school students in the city are better than those in the countryside, but in the end they are still addicted to the legendary game and waste their studies.
In order to be able to access the Internet, Luo Wei had quarrels with his family members countless times. Luo Wei even threatened to death and smashed things at home, but every time he ended up with his parents' compromise.
The family also bought Luo Wei a computer and allowed him to play games online at home, but he had to set a time limit.
But how can Luo Wei, who has become wild at heart, be satisfied with two or three hours of online time every week?
After a quarrel, Luo Weijiang smashed the computer at home, snatched more than 1,000 yuan in cash from his mother's bag and ran away from home.
I said I ran away from home, but actually I came to an Internet cafe and continued surfing the Internet.
The third protagonist of the news is Wang Fengqin, a mother who came to the Internet cafe to look for her child.
Chen Xiao did not have a conversation with Wang Fengqin, but Wang Fengqin cried to the Internet cafe owner with snot and tears, begging the Internet cafe owner to return the child to her.
Wang Fengqin’s child is only 12 years old, but still doesn’t go to school and skips school and surfs the Internet.
There are tens of thousands of words of news materials, with a total of 10 news protagonists.
Every news protagonist has some flesh and blood and his or her own true story. These stories look different from fabricated stories at first glance. Every story is quite shocking.
Online games are just a new thing. Both the media and society pay very little attention to this thing.
The news materials provided by Chen Xiao finally provided an in-depth analysis of why online games are more attractive than stand-alone games.
That is the unique group social model of online games.
Chen Xiao’s news this time has exposed the issue of irregular operation of online games.
So how many online games are there in the Xia Kingdom now?
There are relatively few online games, only three or four, and the only one that is truly popular and influential is Legend.
Chen Xiao's press materials this time are like hitting a snake seven inches, and they have just hit Shengda Company's pain point.
Chen Xiao knows very well that the war between online games and the protection of minors has never ended. He has just put the battlefield in front of society in advance.
Shengda Company will definitely not be beaten to death, but the state's supervision and social attention will definitely be strengthened.
The second round of financing that Shengda desires may be a bit difficult.
This will make Shengda feel stuck in his throat and feel very uncomfortable.
Baidu currently has a cooperative relationship with Chen Xiao, but has no cooperative relationship with Shengda at all.
Shengda Baidu is also willing to feel sick.
Soon Baidu started operating according to Chen Xiao's request.
On the one hand, it provides relevant news materials to Internet giants such as Xinlang, Netyi, and Souhu.
Shengda's terrifying growth has frightened these three Internet giants.
Everyone worked hard to build a website step by step, and then listed it on the NASDAQ. It took many years to accumulate the current wealth.
Shengda, on the other hand, went against common sense and acted as an agent for a South Korean game, becoming a giant in the Internet world in less than half a year.
Of course, everyone doesn't like Shengda Company very much. This feeling is like the old man who picks up garbage next door who you have always looked down on, and suddenly one day he becomes rich.
The three Internet giants were originally partners of Baidu and immediately published the news provided by Baidu on their front pages.
On the other hand, Baidu optimizes the search results of its own search engines.
As long as the user searches for the words "Legend" or "Shengda".
Then the first few search results are all negative reports about the legendary online game by the three Internet giants.
In this era, the influence of online media is limited, but most of the people who can see these negative news are the elites of Xia Kingdom (internet-addicted teenagers will not read web news).
Soon, this piece of news about the serious impact of legend on the physical and mental health of minors received great attention from relevant national departments, some authorities and the media.
