Entering July, if there is any major event for today's American youth, besides Independence Day, it is probably the e3 exhibition.

The game exhibition, which was independent from the Developer Conference, has become a grand event for young people.[]

At this exhibition, the release of new game equipment and the release of new flagship games are all things that the video game community is looking forward to.

And more importantly, because of the increase in oil prices, the U.S. economy has gradually begun to fall into a deeper recession. Last year's stock market crash also happened again this year.

Show, Soros is struggling in the stock market now, but even Soros will definitely play the last game and leave this gambling table - even Soros has already

I have noticed how sluggish the stock market is this year. Even if you are short selling, it is unlikely that anyone will take over.

...This time, people are really afraid.

High oil prices have caused headaches to countless people and made countless people unemployed.

But precisely because of unemployment and idleness, video games have become a substitute for many people.

Catherine even discovered that someone had written a lot of papers about video games.

The most famous one may be the one "On Video Games and Crime Rate" written by Professor Yang (ung) a month ago.

Professor Yang spent two years investigating some sporadic crimes in the United States, only to find that during this economic downturn, the number of Americans

Not only did the probability of such cases not increase, but it actually dropped by 5%!

Professor Yang is a psychiatric scientist. He favors the use of electrotherapy to replace the frontal lobe removal surgery, which is now disgusted by more and more people. He also wants to use electrotherapy to reduce social problems.

society’s crime rate.

Therefore, Dear ng, began to investigate general behavioral crimes in the United States.

But the final conclusion surprised him.

After that, Professor Yang began to look for what led to the current decline in crime rates in society.

Later, Professor Yang discovered the miraculous product of video games.

"People with nothing to do are no longer hanging out on the streets, but lying comfortably at home and playing computer games. People who are potentially harmful to society have been attracted by games, and they vent themselves in games.

That energy that has nowhere to be released...I believe that with the development of science and technology

, When electronic games can replace certain things, such crimes as rape, street fights, and even theft will be reduced a lot. Electronic games are very helpful in reducing social costs. Electronic games allow

People vent their excess energy, which is really a good medicine for society."

Although this guy went too far, for Catherine, this article really made her feel happy.

Well, it’s that flattering feeling about the right position... And for the majority of game enthusiasts, this paper that suddenly became famous is indeed very enjoyable for them... The video game industry is undergoing a transformation

In the process of growth, this kind of encouraging paper is of great help to the development of the industry.

Of course, it is not without objections.

In this world, as long as humans exist, there will be conflicts and disputes.

However, controversy is a good thing. The greater the controversy, the higher your reputation, and the products will become more and more popular. These are indisputable facts.

Everything has two sides.

As soon as the exhibition started, everyone was shocked by the big news - a new generation of Magic Wand game console was about to be released.

The biggest improvement between the Magic Wand game console and the previous generations is that this game console has transplanted many Xbox games. Although it is only black and white, there are many

Games on Xbox do not have high requirements for color, so they can be transplanted almost perfectly.

The news of another online game is not so shocking. Perhaps it is because people now have access to the Internet, so they are not interested in being able to play it.

I don’t care so much about connected game consoles anymore.

However, in terms of purchase intention, among this group of people who prefer to play games on the Internet, the proportion of people with purchase intention is larger. In terms of the purchase base,

They are the majority. After all, many people already have Xbox game consoles.

The current Xbox game console—although it is a bit exaggerated to say so—but the Xbox game console can indeed be said to be the national game console of the United States.

The total sales volume of tens of thousands of units says it all.

Because of this, although it is tempting to be able to run transplanted games of Xbox games, few people will choose to play this kind of game only because of this.

Game console with white color and small screen.

People who pay more attention to portable games are the main buyers among these people.

In terms of gameplay, nothing can compare to the current nim.

For us game consoles, it is temporarily impossible to position a handheld console with the same positioning as future ndsl products.

Appearing at this time... Gates is now at this exhibition.

"www.piaotian.comim

us game console, but...well, from my point of view, it seems that buying it is redundant." Jobs followed Gates.

"Isn't this great?"

Gates is very depressed about surfing the Internet now. Because his information has been registered, his maximum daily Internet time is only three hours, and the longest time is not more than three hours.

Five hours have passed.

It’s not like Gates has never called to protest against Microsoft.

But the other party told Gates very solemnly - Want to play games twelve hours a day? Waiting for you Shi Piao Astronomy Network!

All in all, the depressed Gates just got a bad taste in his nose.

Originally, before this, Gates used other people's identity information to log in, so that he could play games without restrictions.

But it is a pity that just a month and a half ago, Gates happened to bump into his mother while going to the toilet because he stayed up all night playing computer games.

What was even worse was that she had just opened the door at that time, and then her mother just took a look inside and found that Gates was playing on the computer.

Later, this matter was exposed and even caused a sensation.

At that time, the outcry against video games was at its peak, but it was only after Professor Yang’s paper appeared that the situation finally took shape.

changes in.

But for Gates himself, he finished the meeting without any benefit at all. Gates even lost the same opportunity to stay up all night as before, which made

He was extremely depressed.

It is precisely because of this that when the e3 exhibition was held, Gates was so excited that he wanted to play with the new game console.

If you can't sit in front of the computer all night and play by yourself in bed, then that's okay, right?

Moreover, this kind of handheld device can also communicate and fight with the people on the opposite side. This situation really makes Gates very happy.

But compared to the excited Gates, Jobs next to him seemed less enthusiastic about this matter.

Jobs was not that obsessed with games.

Unlike Gates, who was already addicted to games, although Jobs also liked playing games, instinctively, Jobs felt that it was not a good thing to waste time playing games every day.

For this reason, Jobs reminded his friend Gates more than once, but Gates often turned a blind eye to him.

Whenever he mentioned this topic, Gates would always selectively ignore it.

It seems that he really hates discussing this matter.

"Gates, I don't think you really need to spend so much time playing games."

Before Jobs came, he reminded Gates once, and he said it again now.

At this time, Gates, who was originally excited, suddenly became very impatient.

"What's wrong with me?!"

This is a rhetorical question and a questioning.

At this time, despite Gates's shouting, the surroundings had quieted down.

The people around looked at the two people who were walking arm in arm and holding hands just now. At this time, they suddenly looked like enemies. They were all a little shocked.

And there were more onlookers who didn't know the truth, and they also looked inside.

"What did you say happened to you?!" Jobs also got angry.

Then, both of them turned their backs and left angrily in opposite directions.

Gates is very angry now. His best friend can't understand him and even advises him not to play games!

——Although Steve Jobs never said this, when people are paranoid, it is easy to imagine things in extreme directions.

Obviously, Jobs was hit with a gun.

This time, Jobs was fed up with Gates' attitude.

As he walked, Gates' pace gradually slowed down.

"Could it be that it's really me who's wrong?"

Gates began to worry about gains and losses.

Recently, when I was with Steve Jobs, I always discussed some games, but those topics of conversation in the past...are all gone, right?

Since when did you become such a person?

Gates hesitated.

"If... I don't have a good friend like Steve Jobs..." Gates was stunned for a moment.

This seems worse than still having the game.

But at this time, Gates suddenly discovered that the originally fun game could hardly attract him. Unknowingly, Gates' footsteps had stopped.

After the conversation, he turned around and started walking in the direction of Jobs.

Then, he walked faster and faster, and finally started running...
