Chapter 80 What would the world be without games and kids
When you consider the benefits that the virtual online world brings to our real life, you have to consider why the Japanese game industry can sweep the world.
In 1995, after Sony launched the "Play Station 2", it conducted research on the development of new projects for some children in Japan.During the investigation, relevant personnel found that the Internet provides a good platform for the development of game software. Since then, online games have gradually occupied the game market and become a new leader.
Of course, Sony is not the only company that develops these game software, and companies such as Nintendo are also doing it.Thanks to this, many children started learning C++ language from the age of 10 at that time.In the process, they learned programming; after college, they began to work part-time in software development companies or game companies, and some eventually became full-time employees of these companies.
When I was on the board of directors of Square Enix, the company did not hire college graduates, and the employees were mostly picked from people who had worked in the company.
Japan's game industry is known as the "two trillion yen industry."It goes without saying that it has considerable scale and competitiveness in the world, and it is also one of the important industrial pillars supporting the Japanese economy, and it is these children who promote the development of this industry.
In fact, the children have achieved mutual understanding through the Internet, and they gradually began to exchange information with each other through the Internet, and collectively discuss a certain game, so as to improve their knowledge and ability in games.In short, with these children, the virtual network will have more room for development, and the Japanese game industry will be popular all over the world.My two kids are also involved.
In the world of games and children, of course, there are no rules and regulations.In addition to the respect for those game developers, in this online game world, there are no differences in age, superior-subordinate relationship, and educational background.And what can I say about these?All I can say is "the power of the Internet is really great".
Just like in the field of football, Brazilian teenagers are the best in the world; in the field of games, Japanese teenagers are definitely the leaders in the world.However, those adults and media reporters who only see the negative impact of the Internet simply think that the actions of these children are absurd and unreasonable, and they have led the entire public opinion to the opposite.
We should ponder the question: what would Japan be like today without those children?
It is a pity that the current IT market has been almost occupied by India and the United States, South Korea and Israel are also rising in this regard, while Japan is becoming more and more slow in this regard.Only by changing its views on the online game industry can Japan continue to maintain its position in this field.
Although we don’t know how long Play Station and Nintendo can continue to dominate the game market, one thing is for sure, that is, the current game industry is an important force driving Japan’s economic development.
Japan is the only country in the world that has one or two self-developed consoles. Even if there are only one or two, they are not of high professional standards. At least in the field of computers, Japan has no self-developed consoles. The field encountered exactly the same.
