Gaming cafes equipped with gaming PCs is a pretty big market in China. Even if they can’t afford to own one personally, lots of Chinese people game on PC.
It’s not exact.
In fact, gaming cafe is relatively rare in China, especially the blockade and control during the COVID-19 struck it hard.
The Chinese people mostly use the PC at home. It’s cheaper than go to the gaming cafe. It’s because the house prices and rent in China is very high, cause by the CCP monopolized all the land trade in the market. They called that “socialist public ownership”, it means all resources in China legally belong to the CCP, includes the lands.
The very important reason Chinese people game on the PC is that the CCP needs the PCs to “help building a great country”. So it can’t be banned. Then lots of people pretend to buy it for work, but actually use it for gaming or other entertainment most of the time…
That’s why the Biden government banned the AI using by China. The CCP will definitely use it to enhance its military capabilities and international influence.
Yes but theyre nowhere near the prevalence of mobile phones. They might game a bit on PC but the money they might be spending on PC is dwarfed by mobile phone. Thats not to mention the time limits they have on gaming due to law. Additionally, most cafe PCs have preinstalled games and people in general don’t buy games to install on cafe PCs.
