  Future Network, Beijing, March 12 (Reporter He Zhuohui, Liao Jin) On the one hand, the overall revenue of online games reached 218.96 billion yuan, which is equivalent to the good news of the global box office, and on the other hand, the tragedy of the sudden death of a 12-year-old boy addicted to online games. Behind the rapid development and prosperity of online games, is it at the expense of the physical and mental health of teenagers? During the two sessions of the National People’s Congress, teenagers became addicted to online games, which triggered a heated discussion among NPC deputies and CPPCC members. Some members even angrily denounced: "Online games should be killed with a stick!"

  "Online games are psychotropic drugs." Hu Wanning, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and president of Tangshan People’s Hospital, said that online games should be controlled like drugs.

  Hu Wanning was "deeply touched" by the problem of online games because he saw some children addicted to online games and almost didn’t graduate from college.

  He believes that teenagers don’t benefit much from the game itself, and it is very likely that they will spend the best time of their youth in the game and be depressed. Hu Wanning is worried that online games are highly addictive. "If left unchecked, our younger generation will be really unimaginable.". The harm is not limited to young individuals. Hu Wanning also pointed out that "even some online games may be infiltrated into China by some countries with anti-China purposes."

  In the view of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference Commissioner Wang Meihua, it is difficult for teenagers to resist the temptation of online games, because the highlight of online game design is that people are addicted to it, and attraction is its goal.

  However, Ma Huateng, deputy to the National People’s Congress and CEO of Tencent, has different views. He pointed out that online games should not be demonized blindly, but the positive value of games can be further exerted. With the recent popularity of ‘ Jump ’ For example, he said that many elderly people reported that they felt good and prevented brain dementia, and thought the game was "quite fun and simple".

  Also engaged in network technology, Ding Lei, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and chairman and CEO of Netease Company, further analyzed and pointed out that children playing online games are lonely, and they lack better TV dramas and audio books suitable for children. At the same time, there is also a lack of other social activities. He does not exclude teenagers from playing online games, but also said that he would personally choose online games for his daughter to try out.

  Not long ago, Netease announced its unaudited financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2017. The data shows that Netease’s net income in 2017 was 54.102 billion yuan, of which the net income from online game services was 36.282 billion yuan, an increase of 29.7% compared with 2016.

  Both Netease and Tencent are profit-makers in the game industry, emphasizing the positive side of online games. Wang Jianguo, a member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and director of CCTV’s recording channel, thinks that their statements are hypocritical. "They emphasize the positive side of [online games]. For merchants, it is a bit hypocritical for you to emphasize only the positive side. " Wang Jianguo said.

  In life, Wang Jianguo saw a living example of the harm of online games. "I have a friend, the couple are schoolmasters, one is from Tsinghua and the other is from Peking University, but their children can’t get into key middle schools, and their academic performance has been poor." Wang Jianguo explained the reason: children are addicted to one of the most popular mobile online games.

  Although Ma Huateng mentioned in the interview that the Youth Growth Guarding Platform launched by tencent games has been running for one year, many parents are using it now, and the effect is obvious. In addition, in last year’s hit game "the glory of the king", Tencent also launched a health system, which allowed children under 12 to play only one hour a day and not play games after 9 pm.

  Li Yanhong, a member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and founder of Baidu, also said that it is necessary to control the length of online games played by teenagers through software programs. However, Wang Jianguo believes that besides strict restrictions on the time of games, the content of online games, including the excitement of making teenagers addicted and fascinated, should also be studied one by one.

  Li Yanhong said that at the same time, legislation should be followed up, and more legislative actions are needed in relevant legal provisions, especially in protecting the physical and mental health of young people. For online games, special expert committees are needed to define the advantages and disadvantages.

  One side shouted strict control, and the other side cleared the name for online games. Whether online games are evil or not, should they be killed with a stick? Which is better, blocking or dredging?

  "It is better to guide properly by blocking." Hu Wei, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and deputy chairman of the Shanghai Municipal Committee of the Democratic Progressive Party, believes that online games are not necessarily bad for all children. Parents have the greatest responsibility to keep their children from indulging and being led by the nose by online games.

  Parents need to attach importance to family education, give their children a lot of companionship, have more communication with their children, know what their children lack and need to make up, and guide their children appropriately through communication and interaction, so that they can distinguish when to play, when not to play, when to study and when to do homework.

  Ou Yanling, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and deputy director of the Standing Committee of the People’s Congress of Luocheng Mulao Autonomous County, also thinks that it is not appropriate to "kill the game with a stick". Because with the improvement of people’s living standards, there is more demand for culture or entertainment.

  "We can’t deny that games let you spend your leisure time, or get some satisfaction in other aspects, but game producers should also enhance their sense of social responsibility and improve their awareness of cultural communication and moral communication. Produce more games that are beneficial to everyone’s physical and mental health in a very responsible attitude. " She pointed out that some online games are full of violence and negative energy information that teenagers should not be exposed to, and some national heroes and traditional celebrities in China are used as a kind of joke to fill the games, which should be eliminated from online games and prohibited.
