The opening of one Internet café after another, which seems to be thriving, is an opportunity for a group of people to make crazy money, but it also means that South Korea's economy is not doing well.

Eighteen-year-old Li Yongjun walked slowly to the Internet café, he has been graduating from high school for more than a year, not that he was not admitted to university, but that he could not afford to be admitted to college.

Besides, going to college seems to be a matter of making ends meet for the vast majority of young Koreans.

Those truly noble positions are either left to the descendants of the two classes of nobles who studied abroad, or those who are very wealthy merchants to pass on themselves.

No matter how well you study at a university in South Korea, the best outcome in the end is to enter the government as a public official, or else to work in a factory.

After the Korean War, the South Korean economy under the auspices of the United States received a huge boost.

Even the illiterate rural farmers were dug up by the factory owners to work in the factories.

Since being illiterate is also a worker, and it is also a job after going to college, it is better to read and write after high school, and it is not good to earn a few years of money early.

With the help of the United States, South Korea's economy can be said to be changing every year. If you work for a year, you don't know how much money you can make.

It's just that Li Yongjun's luck was a little worse, not long after he graduated from school, the Asian financial crisis occurred.

Whether it is South Korea, Lianben, Southeast Asia and other places, it is very difficult.

How is it possible for such a small country as South Korea to consume all the industrial products produced by South Korea?

South Korea is in the midst of an economic crisis.

Li Yongjun doesn't know if it's his own delusion, since it has become more and more difficult to find jobs and more and more people have been fired from factories, more and more Internet cafes have opened.

People are idle, and if they read books, Lee Yongjun only knows Hangul, but the history of Hangul's large-scale use to this day is only decades.

Professional books are okay, there are professional people translating.

But there are very few interesting books that can be used to pass time, and the price is not cheap.

As for traveling, at a time when money is becoming more and more difficult to earn, everyone is worried about whether they can buy rice tomorrow, and naturally no one is so big-hearted.

At first, the uncles and elders around them planned to march to protest and let them return to work.

But after the Internet cafes were opened, young people went to play games, and the momentum of the demonstrations could not be stopped.

Speaking of Internet cafes, a smile hung on the corner of Li Yongjun's mouth.

When he first entered an Internet café, he still didn't understand why so many people were so obsessed with a computer screen.

But now, he relies on the income from the Internet café to give himself a bite to eat, instead of being like a friend, because he has no job, he has to be scolded by his family every day when he stays at home.

Lee Yongjun had never felt any different before.

Studying is not good, and reading is not strong. Even if you fight with others, you belong to the kind of person who is afraid of hurting yourself and avoids from afar.

However, after he was exposed to StarCraft, everything was different.

StarCraft is a game that is said to have been developed by the Americans, allowing everyone sitting in front of the computer to control their units in various activities like a general.

While others were still only using the mouse to click, Li Yongjun was already able to remember all the keyboard shortcuts and use them proficiently.

By the time others can memorize the shortcuts, he has already begun to study strategy and tactics, trying to analyze the opponent's every move with limited information in the process of the game.

One step ahead of everyone else, he crushed others in game understanding, and in a short period of time, he became famous in the Internet café he frequented.

As more and more Internet cafes opened, the conditions of the new Internet cafes gradually surpassed those of the old ones. In order to win over the regular customers, the owner of the Internet café gradually began to hold competitions.

"StarCraft", which occupies almost all the market share of South Korean Internet cafes, is naturally the first project to be compared.

And in the Internet café competitions again and again, Li Yongjun won again and again.

When others spend money on Internet cafes, he can already go to Internet cafes to make money.

Even the money he won was enough to buy him the best computer possible, but he didn't choose to do that.

Because now he goes to an Internet café, the boss doesn't charge him Internet fees at all, and from time to time his younger brother comes to deliver some food and drinks.

The person who wants to come to see him every day is enough to make the boss smile.

Because you can play games for free every day, and you can eat and drink for free, you can get a bonus at least once a week.

Li Yongjun also regarded playing games in Internet cafes as a formal job, although he never stayed up late, but not everyone can stick to the style of arriving at the Internet café on time at 8 o'clock in the morning and leaving on time at 6 o'clock in the evening.

The wind in the early morning was slightly cool, and Li Yongjun, who had just walked into the Internet café, saw the owner of the Internet café and walked over, and asked, "What's wrong with Brother Jin?"

"Yongjun, come and see! This is a great thing for you!" said the owner of the Internet café with his characteristic exaggerated expression.

"What's a big deal? There's another competition? Or is it a big game?" asked Li Yongjun with some curiosity.

"Yes, it's a big game!, and it's not an ordinary big game!" said the owner of the Internet café sonorously, "If I were as powerful as Yongjun, I wouldn't have to guard this broken Internet café, and I would have to go to the competition to make a lot of money!"

"What kind of competition is so attractive?" said Lee, who was even more curious. Don't look at the owner of the Internet café who said that this is a broken Internet café, but as long as the eyes are not blind, you can see that this Internet café can only be described as a daily gold fight, and the game that can make the Internet café owner excited, what kind of game should it be?

The boss said that he did not hang Lee Yongjun's appetite, he directly handed the newspaper to Lee Yonghao, the top of the first page of the newspaper said that South Korea's economy is recovering, and below the first page it was written, "The government will hold a video game league with a consortium." Samsung, LG, SKT, KT, Hyundai and other domestic chaebol giants will set up their own teams and invest in the league. ”

"Yongjun, didn't you say that you want to work in a big company? With your strength, you can enter whichever company you want to enter this time, this is directly in charge of the headquarters of your consortium, not a subsidiary of those cats and dogs!" The owner of the Internet café said with envy.

The conglomerates listed in the newspapers control at least 95 percent of South Korea's economy.

Samsung alone spans many fields such as military industry, electronics, and daily necessities.

Companies affiliated with the Samsung consortium employ at least 30 percent of South Korea's workforce, either directly or indirectly.

In such a large group, can the descendants and collaterals be the same?
