Rebirth just wants to make money

In a talk show on a certain station, a beautiful hostess is talking to the camera.

"Since it is the National Central Television that proves that the authenticity of the news can be trusted, why does Tsinghua University participate in such a competition? What kind of social impact will this move of Tsinghua University cause? Professor Liang"

As the hostess finished speaking, the camera turned and focused on a man in a gray suit, a dark red tie, and brown aged glasses.The host handed over the microphone, and Professor Liang said without hesitation: "To clarify this issue, we must first understand what an e-sports competition is.

E-sports competition, many people may be unfamiliar with this term, its correct name should be, electronic game competition.

Please pay attention to the word game in it, that is to say, the so-called e-sports competition is actually just a game competition.

Now everyone knows, what is a video game?That's an electronic conch sound, it's a psychoactive drug, it's a bad thing.How many teenagers are unemployed because they are addicted to online games?How many parents have broken their hearts in order to get their children to quit Internet addiction, and even went bankrupt?

Like a real drug, it ruined family after family.

So as a scholar, I don't quite understand Tsinghua's behavior.As one of the most representative universities in China, its every move will have a very strong social impact.As a leader in the academic world, I think what it should do is to boycott video games with us, fight against video games, and not give video games a chance to take advantage of it.

Rather than participating in it, or even taking everyone to play games together.

The word Tsinghua appeared in the organizer's list, not only because it is irresponsible to its own reputation, but also because it is irresponsible to the whole society.

Just imagine, when parents educate their children with Tsinghua University as their goal, the children can confidently say that Tsinghua University has also held game competitions. What a terrible scene it will be?

How many of those students who have worked hard for Tsinghua University's goal will go astray because of this move?

So I think Tsinghua University should give us an explanation and give the society an explanation.Join us in the fight against video games. "

After saying this, the professor leaned back slightly, which meant that he had finished speaking.

The host took back the microphone, the camera zoomed out, and the lens included both of them.

The host said to the camera: "I believe that Professor Liang's opinion is also the opinion of many people. At the same time, everyone will have some questions about the questions raised by Professor Liang. So we proposed to film the reporter on the campus of Tsinghua University. For on-site interviews, please switch the screen with the director.”

""

As soon as the screen changed, the screen on the TV changed from an indoor studio to an outdoor scene.

It's ten o'clock in the morning now, the sun has just risen, the weather at the end of September is still cool, and the temperature is not as hot as it looks before noon.

A young man in a long-sleeved T-shirt is holding a microphone and facing the camera lens in front of him.

"Hello everyone, I'm reporter Wu Bingwang. I'm at the School of Information Technology of Tsinghua University. This is where the e-sports competition was launched. The construction site behind me is the future e-sports venue.

Now let’s interview the students passing by and listen to their opinions.”

After the voice fell, Wu Bingwang, the host and reporter, found a passing boy and asked, "Hello classmate, I am"

"I know, reporter." The boy said bluntly: "I don't have any opinion on e-sports competitions, I just think it's fun."

"The student, do you think Tsinghua University is the host?" Wu Bingwang continued to ask, but he was interrupted by the boy just in the middle of his speech.

The boy said: "What impact can it have? It's just a competition, I have nothing to do, so I'll leave first."

After finishing speaking, he walked halfway, and suddenly turned around to remind him: "By the way, there have been several waves of reporters before you, and they have almost covered all the interviewees."

""

Wu Bingwang watched the boy walk away speechlessly, then looked at the camera in embarrassment, and racked his brains to complete the scene.Fortunately, this is not a live broadcast but a recorded broadcast, otherwise this would have been considered a broadcast accident.

It was so embarrassing.

But Wu Bingwang was not reconciled. If he failed to interview one classmate, he would interview several more.So he picked out a few more honest classmates, successfully asked some questions, and got some answers he wanted.

For example, a classmate wearing glasses replied: "I think the university campus can be diversified, but the main task is still learning. Now many students are focusing on competitions. I think this phenomenon is not good."

Another girl said: "Internet cafes are places where gangsters go. I really don't understand why the school builds such a thing."

In short, because it is recorded and broadcast, the TV station can leave any interview fragments it wants, and can also cut out any interview fragments that it does not want to keep.

This TV station itself tends to criticize Tsinghua University, so what they retain are some bad comments on e-sports competitions.

As for why the TV station stands on the opposite side of Tsinghua University.

The reason is very simple. It is not that it has any enmity with Tsinghua University, but that there are many people who hold this position.When they say something critical of the game in the broadcast news, it will resonate with many people, and everyone loves to hear it.

After all, I am not the news of the National Central Station, so there is no need to maintain objectivity and neutrality. As long as it does not violate the facts and does not spread rumors, there is no problem, and the position is not illegal.

In the office of the dean of the School of Information Technology, the dean was full of helplessness, but he had to greet the reporter who came from afar with a smile on his face, and said something that he repeated for an unknown number of times, and he did not know how many times he would continue to repeat it if.

"This reporter friend, I want to correct you first." The dean said: "You just said that e-sports is e-sports, which is correct. But it is not its definition. Game competitions reach the "competitive" level of sports. Please remember two key words, competition, and sports. This is not a game for playing games, but a sports competition."

"The dean of the sports program is a bit exaggerated," the reporter laughed.

The dean also smiled and said: "This sport is officially certified by the General Administration of Sports. If you have any doubts about this matter, you can go to them. Maybe you have the ability to overturn this certification, but before that. E-sports is a sport. We It should be treated as an established fact.”

"Well, even if he is a sports event, he can't get rid of the fact that the essence of the game is to play games, right?" the reporter asked.

"Of course you can't get rid of it, and you don't need to get rid of it. E-sports itself is playing games to a professional level, just like the professional football league, which also turns football from a game into a profession." The dean said: "All legal entertainment, Those who play well can rise to the professional level. If you can sing well in KTV, you can also participate in professional competitions, so playing games and competitions are not contradictory." said the dean.

"But video games are different, it's electronic conch sound"

"Has this title been officially certified by the state?" The dean interrupted the reporter.

The reporter looked blank, not knowing what to say.

The dean continued: "The official sports events are certified by the State Sports General Administration, but the electronic conch sound you are talking about, who is the name for the certification? If there is no certification, I will not admit it. You know, our academic circle is Very authoritative."

"This is a title recognized by everyone." The reporter said unconvinced.

Originally, he wanted to guide the dean to say something bad, but the dean didn't give him a chance and even refuted him, so he got a little angry.

Like an old fox, the dean still smiled and said: "I am not among all the people. If the journalist comrades want to call me inhumane, I have no problem. As for the title you mentioned that most people recognize, I Again, we believe in authority in academia. We are more willing to trust a small number of authoritative experts than the general public who are not professional.

The majority rule does not apply to us"

"But"

"Okay." The dean interrupted the reporter with a gentle speech, and said: "I am also very busy with work, so the interview will end here, and I will say everything I have to say. When you go back to edit, you must remember to seek truth from facts , if you take it out of context, I will pursue your legal responsibility on behalf of the school."

""

The reporter was very helpless. Although he was full of anger, he really had nothing to do with the dean, so he could only leave honestly.

After the reporter team left, the dean let out a long sigh of relief, and in his heart scolded the leaders above and Su Che all over again.

If it weren't for Su Che making so many moths, how could I be so tired?

And those leaders, weren't you the ones who made the negotiation at that time?Why do you start talking about what you caused when you deal with reporters and you solve it yourself?

Cooperating with me is easy to bully, right?

Come on, come on, come and bully me, and I'll give up if I do this again.

He Lianxi sat in front of the TV, constantly changing channels, watching the news broadcast on the TV, some of which were about the content of this national e-sports competition.

Of course, most of the comments are relatively negative, and a few of them can maintain neutrality, but they are not absolutely neutral, and there are some guides in it.

As for the positive reviews sorry, no.

Again, it’s not that TV stations have enmity with e-sports, but that the background of the big era is like this. Most people are not optimistic about e-sports. If the news of TV stations follows the direction that people want to listen to, it will have higher ratings Rate.

As for the people who read the news, they only believe the facts they want to believe, and they only want to listen to the same opinions as themselves

After another round of the broadcast, He Lianxi turned off the TV, and gradually frowned.

Now it is the result of not hiring a navy, and the TV station's evaluation of this matter is actually overwhelming.Although I had made psychological preparations before, I didn't expect it to be so thorough.

"no solution anymore."

He Lianxi thought helplessly in her heart: "At the end of the day, I still have to hire Su Che, a sailor. Although the way I think about it is a bit clumsy, it's really effective."

So, following He Lianxi's phone call, some sailors lurking in the dark surfaced one after another and began to express their opinions.

"My destiny is unparalleled, and I dominate the country. In the midst of a wild victory, I speak sadly with sadness"

Wushuang is playing in the Internet cafe as background music, and the customers who are surfing the Internet are all playing different games.

Suddenly, the door of the Internet cafe was opened, and a middle-aged woman in simple clothes pushed in.Her expression was serious, her eyes conveyed angry signals, she was quickly scanning every corner of the Internet cafe, and then locked on one of them.

Sitting in that corner was a boy who looked like a junior high school student. He was still wearing a school uniform. He was obviously an Internet addict who came to the Internet cafe right after school.

The middle-aged woman walked over calmly, walked behind the boy, pinched the boy's ear with one hand, and twisted it hard.

It wasn't until this moment that she finally let out the angry growl of the middle-aged woman: "Wang Zicheng, I'm the one who insulted your ancestors. Did you come to the Internet cafe after school? Didn't I hit you, huh?"

The voice was so powerful and deafening that everyone in the Internet cafe could hear it clearly, and even Wushuang, who was playing on the audio system, was blocked.

I don't know if Jay Chou would have thought that his songs would not be able to match the roar of a middle-aged woman

"What are you doing!"

A junior high school student named Wang Zicheng struggled to break free from his mother's clutches and yelled angrily.

"What are you doing? I told you that it's fine, but you can't come to the Internet cafe? Do you deserve a beating?" The middle-aged woman continued to growl.

If it had been the past, Wang Zicheng would have gone home with his mother straight away. When Qingcheng e-sports first opened, this scene had happened in the Internet cafe.

But now it is different, Wang Zicheng has confidence, he said to his mother confidently: "I am here for training, I want to play a game."

"Don't be useless with me, can you still play a game if you play a broken game?" The middle-aged woman asked.

"Why not? This competition is held by Tsinghua University, and even Tsinghua University has held competitions. Don't you always want me to take the exam at Tsinghua University? I can't even participate in a competition?" Wang Zicheng said.

3Chapter 16 Prepare by yourself

Hearing her son say that Tsinghua University held a video game competition, the middle-aged woman just thought it was absurd.But she saw a huge poster about the competition hanging in the Internet cafe at a glance.In the name of the organizer, there are four words of Tsinghua University.

These four words are more eye-catching than any other words. The middle-aged women don't believe it, but they dare not believe it.

It's 2007, and people haven't been affected by the information explosion.When a middle-aged woman sees a promotional poster, they will believe whatever it says as long as the poster looks legitimate.Because this is authority to them, just like dragging a bald middle-aged man to put on a white coat and playing the doctor.

They will also believe in the doctor who is played out.

Because in this era, people don't know that the cost of counterfeiting many things is very low.Let alone middle-aged women, even young people who are at the forefront of the times will believe that Shakespeare said that the words of drinking strong wine and falling in love with the woman you love most are said by Shakespeare.

So the middle-aged woman was immediately convinced when she saw the poster, and she convinced herself without anyone explaining to her.The reason is very simple, people have written it, can there be fake ones?

There can be no fakes.

That's true.

Perhaps at this time, if someone really came to explain to her, she might still have some doubts, but not now.

So she had no way to refute.

Tsinghua University has participated in e-sports competitions, so is this competition really useful for children?After all, it is Tsinghua University, they will not do useless things!

Wang Zicheng, who was about to receive the beating, saw his mother suddenly quiet down, and immediately realized that what he said was effective, so he said: "It must be useful for Tsinghua University to hold a competition. Maybe it will give you extra points in the exam."

"Is it true? Can you add points?"

Although the middle-aged woman was asking a question, her eyes had already betrayed what she thought in her heart, and she believed it.Or to be precise, she is willing to believe such a fact.

Participating in a competition can add points and increase the chances of my son being admitted to Tsinghua University.

Good things should be believed.

Besides, what my son said made sense. That's Tsinghua University. How could he do useless things? He must have a purpose, but he just didn't talk about it.

So, after hesitating for a while, the middle-aged woman restrained her temper and said to her son, "Then you can play here, don't play too late."

Wang Zicheng was shocked and almost jumped up in excitement.

You must know that my mother hated me for coming to the Internet cafe in the past. Since the Internet cafe started, I have basically been beaten all the time, and I will be arrested once every two days on average.

With such a life, how could he ever think that such words as you play here can come from his mother's mouth!

Are you really not dreaming?

The place where I was beaten just now is quite painful, it is really not a dream!

He froze for a moment, and was about to muster up the courage to ask his mother for some more money. After all, even if his mother didn't come, he wouldn't be able to play for long.But it turned out that he didn’t even need to ask himself, so my mother took out ten yuan and thought about it and replaced it with earrings, and handed it to him: “Go home early, don’t play too late, and you can’t study too Delay, it’s useless if you don’t add points.”

"Okay, I know." Now Wang Zicheng has no patience to listen to his mother's nagging, and now he just wants to log in to the game again and continue to gallop.

As for the game just mentioned, sorry, he doesn't play any of those four games, he plays online games.

But it doesn't matter, the important thing is that my mother doesn't know.Mom doesn't even know the difference between online games and stand-alone games, which is why Wang Zicheng is so bold

Watching his mother leave, Wang Zicheng added all 20 yuan to his membership without hesitation. Today is the first day his mother lets him go online, so he has to work hard.

If Su Che were here and saw this scene, he would probably go back and expose Wang Zicheng's little thoughts.It's not that he has a sense of justice, but that he just doesn't want to let himself take the blame for others.

The same thing didn't just happen to Wang Zicheng, almost at the same time period, very similar scenes appeared in Internet cafes all over the country.Some parents feel that this is unreliable, and still insist on not letting their children go to Internet cafes, and they will be beaten up if they are caught.But more parents finally chose to compromise.

After all, it may add points, even if there are only two words of "possibility", which can increase the hope of the child's admission to Tsinghua University, he must give it a try.This is the painstaking efforts of the parents of the children, and it is also a place that the children can just take advantage of.

It may be cruel to say that all children's outrageous behaviors are taking advantage of their parents' love for them.
