Free Download Mapping Digital Game Culture in China: From Internet Addicts to Esports Athletes by Marcella Szablewicz
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2020 | 229 Pages | ISBN : 3030361101 | 3.4 MB
In this book, Marcella Szablewicz traces what she calls the topography of digital game culture in urban China, drawing our attention to discourse and affect as they shape the popular imaginary surrounding digital games. Szablewicz argues that games are not mere sites of escape from Real Life, but rather locations around which dominant notions about failure, success, and socioeconomic mobility are actively processed and challenged. Covering a range of issues including nostalgia for Internet cafés as sites of youth sociality, the media-driven Internet addiction moral panic, the professionalization of e-sports, and the rise of the self-proclaimed loser (diaosi), Mapping Digital Game Culture in China uses games as a lens onto youth culture and the politics of everyday life in contemporary China. Based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted between 2009 and 2015 and first-hand observations spanning over two decades, the book is also a social history of urban China’s shifting technological landscape.

The Transpacific Experiment How China and California Collaborate and Compete for Our Future


Free Download The Transpacific Experiment: How China and California Collaborate and Compete for Our Future by Matt Sheehan, P. J. Ochlan, HighBridge, a division of Recorded Books
English | 2019 | ISBN: B07VP5YPT6 | M4B@128 kbps | ~11:59:00 | 653 Mb
Tensions between the world’s superpowers are mounting in Washington, D.C., and Beijing. But between these hubs of high-level politics, an entirely new reality is emerging. Yet the People’s Republic of China and the state of California have built deep and interdependent socioeconomic exchanges that reverberate across the globe, and these interactions make California a microcosm of the most important international relationship of the 21st century.
In The Transpacific Experiment, journalist Matt Sheehan chronicles the real people who are making these connections. Sheehan tells the story of a Southern Californian mayor who believes a Chinese electric bus factory will save his town from meth labs and skinheads. He follows a celebrated Chinese AI researcher who leaves Google to challenge his former employer from behind the Great Firewall. Sheehan joins a tour bus of wealthy Chinese families shopping for homes in the Bay Area, revealing disgruntled neighbors and raising important questions about California’s own prejudices.
Sheehan’s on-the-ground reporting reveals movie sets in the "Hollywood of China," Chinese immigrants who support Donald Trump, and more. Each of these stories lays bare the new reality of 21st-century superpowers: The closer they get to one another, the more personal their frictions become.

English | ASIN: B08C5N7ZW2 | 2020 | MP3@64 kbps | ~07:21:00 | 208 MB
An exposé on how the rise of China will affect the American way of life, The End of Cheap China is a fun, riveting, must-listen audiobook not only for people doing business in China but for anyone interested in understanding the forces that are changing the world.
Many Americans know China for manufacturing cheap products, thanks largely to the country’s vast supply of low-cost workers. But China is changing, and the glut of cheap labor that has made everyday low prices possible is drying up as the Chinese people seek not to make iPhones, but to buy them. Shaun Rein, Founder of the China Market Research Group, puts China’s continuing transformation from producer to large-scale consumer – a process that is further along than most economists think – under the microscope, examining eight megatrends that are catalyzing change in China and posing threats to Americans’ consumption-driven way of life.
