Chinese women change the 'game'

I'm not a games person - I hardly play digital games on electronic devices like mobile phones and PCs. To me, "game" is, rather was, synonymous with a console-generated content bristling with weaponry, dripping machismo.

But, because I needed to research and write a package of stories on the multibillion dollar business, I downloaded Love and the Producer. And I got hooked immediately.

It started with a haunting memory of a car accident. At the age of 5, the female protagonist (me, the gamer or the player) is saved by a mysterious passerby. I later became a TV producer who strives to bring alive a dying TV show, a family legacy.
