“大吉大利，今晚吃鸡”，相信很多人都对这句话耳熟能详。吃鸡游戏，一度成为中国年轻人娱乐消遣的选择。
游戏在印度也异常火爆，但印度很多城市都禁止了这款游戏。是怎么回事呢？
小编认为，大概是印度人觉得游戏太过暴力，怕中毒玩家有样学样吧。
看过今天的英文文章，你就懂了——
Tencent, the Chinese tech giant, has scoredits first big hit overseas, wooing 263m users to its PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds mobile game in the past year, according to data from app tracker Sensor Tower.
据软件调查员 Sensor Tower 称，中国科技巨头腾讯首次在海外有了一款走红产品，其手机游戏《绝地求生》（PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, PUBG）在过去一年里吸引了 2.63 亿用户。
Tencent and rival Alibaba have grown to a combined market valuation of $930bn on the back of strong growth in China. However, they have struggled to gain much more than a toehold overseas.
随着中国境内的强劲增长，腾讯和竞争对手阿里巴巴的市场估值之和已达到 9300 亿美元。然而，它们一直努力在海外立足的基础上扩大市场。
At the same time, smaller Chinese tech companies have successfully expanded abroad. TikTok, the popular short video app owned by ByteDance, passed 1bn downloads worldwide last month, while several other Chinese start-upsare adopting business models wholly predicated on overseas markets.
同时，一些规模较小的中国科技公司已在海外市场成功扩张。上月，字节跳动推出的热门短视频软件 TikTok（抖音国际版）全球下载量达到 10 亿次。还有几家中国初创企业采用完全面向海外市场的商业模式。
Yet the huge popularity of PUBG Mobile shows Tencent is making some headway in India, a favoured market for both Tencent and Alibaba as they plot global expansion.
现在，《绝地求生》的高人气表明腾讯在印度取得了一些进展，印度是腾讯和阿里巴巴两家在策划全球扩张时都看好的市场。
Even so, as in China, PUBG Mobile has not escaped the notice of regulators in India, whoare wary of a violent game that can prove addictive. Some cities in Gujarat, a state in north-west India, have banned the game altogether.
尽管如此，就像在中国一样，《绝地求生》并没有逃过印度监管机构的注意，他们对可能会让人上瘾的暴力游戏有所堤防。在印度西北部古吉拉特邦的一些城市，全都禁止了这款游戏。
Tencent said it was working on efforts to promote “healthy and responsible” game playing in India, much as it has in China.
腾讯表示，正致力于在印度促进“健康和负责任”的玩游戏行为，就像该公司在中国所做的那样。
“We were thus surprised to learn that local authorities in a few cities have decided to impose a ban on playing our game,” the company said in a statement.
“我们因此惊讶地发现，一些城市的地方当局决定明令禁止玩我们的游戏，”该公司在一份声明中表示。
“We are working to understand the legal basis of such bans, and hope we can have a constructive dialogue with relevant authorities to explain our objectives and that they withdrawthe prohibition.”
“我们正在努力了解此类禁令的法律依据，并希望我们能够与有关当局进行建设性对话，以解释我们的目标，希望他们解除禁令。”
看来腾讯还有很长的路要走。
印度人认为，游戏太暴力了，所以禁止了。
小编倒认为，游戏是客观存在的，没必要禁止，禁止了也有人偷偷玩，但是对于游戏的态度是个人决定的。普通人可以玩游戏，可以热爱，但最好不要沉溺其中，分不清虚拟与现实。
