Gaming is supposed to be a place for relaxation and entertainment, but it can also be a trap for teenagers. Recently, a social storm surrounding minors' addiction to games is setting off across the country, attracting widespread attention and heated discussions from all walks of life.
As a leading figure in mainland Internet companies, Ma Huateng, chairman and CEO of Tencent, also made his own unique views on this issue:
Ma Huateng has emphasized the importance of this issue on different occasions, and he believes that the addiction of minors to games not only threatens the healthy growth of young people, but also directly affects the future talent training of the country and the sustainable development of society. Ma pointed out that simply banning or shutting down the game blanket is not the answer, and that such an extreme approach could have more negative consequences. On the contrary, he advocates a more flexible management strategy, with the help of technology to allow parents and children to participate in the control of playtime, so as to achieve more effective management goals.
In this context, Ma Huateng proposed the concept of digital contract. Parents and children agree on game time through digital contracts, which not only meets children's entertainment needs, but also effectively prevents game addiction. This concept is widely recognized, and many parents and industry professionals agree that this practice helps to develop a sense of self-discipline and family responsibility in children.
In the same context, Pony Ma advocated the concept of digital contracts. He emphasised the importance of digital contracts between parents and children to jointly define playtime and effectively manage children's online behavior. At the same time, Tencent has made active efforts to prevent teenagers from becoming addicted to games, implemented strict anti-addiction game rules, and launched innovative measures such as a platform for parents and minors and a child lock mode. These measures aim to fundamentally control the problem of minors' gaming addiction and create a healthy online environment for teenagers.
Ma's stance and measures have not been widely recognized by public opinion. Some people pointed out that these measures are just stopgap measures taken by Tencent for its own interests, and cannot solve the problem fundamentally. They believe that the essence of gaming is temptation, and it is difficult to truly achieve the goal of preventing teenagers from becoming addicted to games by relying only on technological means and family constraints.
The harm of online games to children cannot be ignored, and indulging in them can seriously affect their academic performance. With a lot of time occupied by games, children are not interested in learning in the classroom, which has a negative impact on their academics. However, this cannot be blamed on Ma Huateng, as the responsibility for indulging in online games should be borne by the children and their families.
The rise of the Internet is a product of scientific and technological progress, and only enterprises with strong scientific and technological strength can develop online game software. This also confirms Tencent's technological strength and the pride of mainland national enterprises. Although online games are a product of the times, Tencent is not wrong to develop these games, the fault lies in our children, and parents who do not educate them well, causing children to become addicted to mobile phones and online games.
If there is no Tencent to develop online game software, there will inevitably be other companies like Ma Huateng or Wu Huateng to emerge online game software. There are many types of online games, and in addition to Tencent's products, there are many other online games on the market. It is one-sided to blame Tencent for the negative effects of online games.
To enjoy online games, you need not only an internet connection but also a device such as a smartphone. If the problem of online games is attributed to Tencent, then smartphones should also be listed as complicit. Do we want to ban the sale of smartphones as well? Therefore, the idea of asking Pony Ma to shut down online games is unjustified.
For teenagers, online gaming has both positive and negative effects. Positive aspects include helping them develop teamwork, social skills, reaction speed and logical thinking skills. However, over-indulging in games can lead to impaired academics, disrupted social relationships, and even physical and mental health. In addition, there is violence, pornography and other undesirable content in online games, which may have a negative impact on the values and behavioral habits of teenagers. Therefore, teenagers need to play games in moderation, combined with a good family education, to guide them to make proper use of online resources.
Mr. Ma's contribution is undeniable, and his Tencent company has changed the way we live and provided us with great convenience. Although online games may have a negative impact on teenagers to a certain extent, this does not mean that we should completely dismiss Mr. Ma's achievements. The development of online games is not his own fault, and even without him, there will be other companies that will launch similar products. Therefore, we should look at the problem with an objective attitude, not only to pay attention to the impact of online games on young people, but also to recognize the achievements of Mr. Ma Huateng in the field of science and technology.
