Temple of Stone.

In the history of the game's existence, there has never been a game that has reached such heights as the Phantom World......

Before the advent of the Phantom World, no one would have thought that one day, the technical level of a game would determine a person's social status and even wealth income......

In fact, even when there is a large group of professional players with considerable income in the world of professional gamers, and even when e-sports is recognized by the vast majority of countries in the world, the field of games, in the perception of the vast majority of ordinary people, still belongs to the category of playthings......

The reason for this is not that complicated......

It is true that in reality, playing games is no longer as useless as it used to be, and professional gamers who play well can not only have a very rich income, but also have extremely high popularity, and high popularity represents that even if you can't make money as a professional player after retiring, you can still use your popularity to make money for yourself......

Whether it is endorsing a variety of mice and keyboards, or opening a snack shop, they can achieve success that is difficult for ordinary people to imagine......

Because in a sense, the most fundamental reason why many shops will collapse, in the final analysis, is nothing more than the lack of rapid popularity, and popularity is something that cannot be seen or touched, sometimes, some restaurants, obviously the food is delicious, the location is good, and the price is not high, but in the end it is still a bleak ending, the fundamental reason is that the popularity is not strong......

In a sense, it is true that there are various factors involved, but no one can deny the importance of luck......

Many times, when the market is large enough to a certain extent, the sentiment will often exceed the initial expectations, or even completely run counter to the expectations......

To give a simple example, just like when many singers release records, often the title song is not cared for, or the attention is far lower than expected, but among those non-main songs, there are often some highly sung works, and even a work that suddenly becomes popular, no matter what angle this kind of work is analyzed, it is often difficult to find the reason why it can become popular, but if it is popular, it is popular......

It's like a very famous skateboarding shoe, which is a typical example, how did such a song become popular? It's obviously hard to sing, but why do you still want to listen to it, and even have a demonic nature that wants to keep circulating, if you have to find the reason, I'm afraid it's hard to find......

In fact, many times, the problem of lack of popularity, running a store is the most objective problem, theoretically speaking, there are various ways to improve the popularity of a store, but the effect is difficult to have a clear conclusion, sometimes some publicity will indeed have a good effect, and sometimes the publicity seems to have no effect......

Just like the famous brain platinum advertisement, no matter what you look at the advertisement, you will subconsciously feel that it is a very, very, very brain-dead and failed advertisement, but no one can deny that it is precisely because of this seemingly very brain-dead advertisement that has created the sales myth of brain platinum for a period of time......

Any businessman with good business acumen can end up failing because of his popularity......

This kind of failure, many times, is even completely unavoidable, no popularity is no popularity, no matter how good the thing is, no one is willing to pay, this situation can be said to be very, very common in reality......

However, the biggest advantage of professional gamers is actually the popularity they have accumulated during their careers, and with such popularity, as long as they do not take the route of black-hearted businessmen, they can basically easily establish their initial good reputation and credibility, so as to achieve transformation naturally......

This can naturally help them get through the biggest difficulty for ordinary self-made businessmen!

This is like a celebrity doing business......

Compared with ordinary people, celebrities are often easier to succeed in business, and the reason is that when celebrities are in business, their own integrity and reputation can be guaranteed through their own fame, if the star does something immoral, it will have an impact on his fame, for celebrities, it is a thing that outweighs the loss, and on this basis, people are naturally more willing to believe that celebrities will not do those things that damage their reputation. Naturally, they are more willing to cooperate with celebrities......

In fact, after esports has gradually become an industry, professional gamers, especially professional esports players, their lives have changed dramatically, and a successful professional player is almost no longer discriminated against by anyone, but on the contrary, they tend to gain the admiration and envy of many young people, even their relatives and elders, will see their work as a normal high-paying career......

When their career plan becomes perfect, for the vast majority of professional gamers, once they enter the professional circle, the resistance of family members is often reduced to a minimum......

Even if you retire, you can maintain your popularity by doing live game broadcasts and game commentary, and then advertising endorsements and operating e-stores, which are enough to maintain a relatively high level of income and smoothly realize the transformation in your life......

Such a career path is enough for the vast majority of parents who are worried about their children's choices to let go of most of their worries and support the choices made by their children......

In addition, the recognition from the country and the world is also the main reason for the professionalization of e-sports......

When there is no resistance from the outside or within, the lives of professional gamers can naturally become superior and comfortable enough......

However, the success of a professional gamer is not the success of the game!

As an alternative profession, professional gamers can certainly be recognized and understood by the vast majority of people after various changes......

However, as the foundation of professional gamers' survival, those various games that attract a large number of players, in fact, are still not recognized by the vast majority of people......

For the vast majority of people, they still see gaming as a waste of time and energy......

In fact, in a sense, such a concept cannot be said to be wrong......

Professional gamers are professional players, ordinary players are ordinary players, professional players play games, they take the game as their own work and their own profession to carry out, naturally need to keep improving, naturally need to play day and night!

However, for ordinary players, if they play games day and night, then it is a kind of addiction, and this addiction, whether it is for life or for learning, the effect is bound to be negative!

In fact, in the vast majority of the news, those who gnaw on the old people or need their wives to work to support the waste wood, but those who do not go to work unemployed vagrants, their main "jobs" are often only two, one is to go to the chess and card room every day to play cards and mahjong, and the other is to play online games at home every day......

The life of professional gamers is certainly enviable, and the income of professional gamers is certainly more than that of the vast majority of white-collar workers, but the fact that professional gamers can get such benefits from games does not mean that ordinary players can also get these ......

For ordinary players, for ordinary people, playing the game for the vast majority of the time, it can be said that it is a behavior that is not beneficial to their own life, especially indulging in the game for a long time, in the concept of the vast majority of people, it is still a behavior that is much more negative than positive evaluation......

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― ―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Because of this, even if professional gamers have been recognized by the vast majority of people, in the eyes of those teachers and parents, the perception of games will still not change......

In their minds, games are still in the category of cancer......

The reason is very simple, playing games to become professional players, naturally not a bad thing, and it is not impossible to be recognized, but the number of players in the game is huge, among which there are only a handful of players who can really embark on a career path......

Just like the vast majority of students who have embarked on the path of professional gamers, the general academic performance is not very good, although there are a very small number of academic tyrants with good grades, but after all, they are still a minority of the minority......

It is true that this part of the students with poor grades eventually became professional gamers, but behind them, there are many young people who have career dreams like them, who have wasted their studies and wasted their most precious time in the game......

Compared with the winners, the number of losers is often 100 times more than 1000 times that of the winners!

In the final analysis, in the original concept......

The world of the game is a very polarized world......

Being a part of the pro gamers will naturally lead to a better life than ordinary people......

And those players who can't become professional gamers, but are addicted to games, often end up on a very difficult social road because they waste their precious youth...... The ratio of the former to the latter is often a very, very disparity in numbers!

In fact, not to mention games, even sports such as football and basketball have the same problem......

In terms of reputation, whether it is football or basketball, of course, it is much better than the game......

But in fact, from the senses of parents, children who regard football or basketball as a hobby, to a certain extent, are not much different from children who are addicted to games, in the final analysis, they are nothing more than wasting their youth......

It's simple......

Whether it is football or basketball, it is a type of sport with a high popularity rate, but the ratio between the number of fans and professionals is as great as the game, and there are only a handful of people who like to play football and basketball, and only a handful of people can eventually embark on a career path, which is why the vast majority of young people who love these sports, in the eyes of their elders, are actually taking a detour in life......

However, after the appearance of the phantom world, people's concept of games has undergone earth-shaking changes! (To be continued.) )
