DJ中国对年轻游戏玩家的重视可能并不意味着进一步收紧-市场言论

0820 GMT - China's recent emphasis on the gaming habits of young people might not be a sign the sector would come under regulatory scrutiny as many investors fear, Jefferies says. A state media outlet on Tuesday criticized videogames as "opium for the mind" and called for tougher regulation, sending shares of major game developers including tech giant Tencent tumbling more than 10%. Jefferies points out that regulators sound supportive of the online-gaming industry, and that the protection of young users has been a continuing focus and likely won't lead to major policy changes. Chinese authorities reiterated their support for the online-game sector at a major industry conference last week, it notes. (yifan.wang@wsj.com)

0820GMT-杰富瑞(Jefferies)表示,中国最近对年轻人游戏习惯的强调可能不是一个迹象,表明该行业将像许多投资者担心的那样受到监管审查。周二,一家官方媒体批评视频游戏是“精神鸦片”,并呼吁加强监管,导致包括科技巨头腾讯控股在内的主要游戏开发商的股价暴跌超过10%。杰富瑞指出,监管机构听起来支持网络游戏行业,保护年轻用户一直是一个持续关注的问题,可能不会导致重大的政策变化。报告指出,中国当局在上周的一次重要行业会议上重申了对网络游戏行业的支持。(yifan.wang@wsj.com)
