Thank you for this wonderful program , but Iโm afraid that link of transcript is wrong.
I got into soccer computer games when I was young.
Now I quited playing because I study and work a lot.
But I still watch football matches every week.
I know eSports is a big business, a huge multi-billion-dollar industry.
People can make big money playing it.
They want to go a professional level or even become a coach.
They are playing competitively.
The whole Industry are taking off…
More and more creators, publishers, players and audiences in the eSports scene.
Thank you.
playing video game need a schedule, and we must be discipline. it is consuming-time.
