游戏行业似乎要步教育行业后尘（讲解版）|E0809

▍原文

China should stop handing out tax breaks to gaming companies

because they’ve become global players that thrive on their own,

a government-backed newspaper said,

fanning uncertainty about a potential crackdown on Tencent Holdings Ltd. and its peers.

Local governments should cut off incentives for gaming companies

that were introduced in the past

to encourage the development of a domestic software industry,

the Securities Times wrote in a commentary piece. 

In fact, they should assume more responsibility

and give back to society via higher taxes,

the Shenzhen-based newspaper,

one of the country’s main financial outlets, said.
