Industry view: Game: at present, the game industry is still in the regulatory cycle, and the overall performance is suppressed to a certain extent; Under the background of tightening the version number, the number and time of new games online have been greatly affected. Companies with strong operation and outstanding sea going strength may have better performance in the medium and short term; If the game version number is restored, it is expected to bring performance flexibility. Hong Kong stocks recommend Netease (new products are expected to continue to drive performance growth, and overseas expansion is expected), Tencent holdings and Xinxin company.

Content Internet: the overall valuation logic of content Internet companies has changed greatly, from focusing on user growth to profit, and from PS and single user valuation to long-term steady-state profit. In terms of segments: long video is affected by policy supervision and inter industry competition, and there will be some pressure on the growth of members and advertising in the future; Short video users and time growth gradually slow down, but the future of short video content and various payment scenarios combined still have great potential. In addition to traffic advertising business, the exploration of electricity providers and local life is worth focusing on, and recommends fast (21Q3 starts Kwai loss continues to improve, looking to the future narrower and narrower certainty).

E-commerce and local life: under the macroeconomic impact, the competitive environment of e-commerce industry is relatively fierce, and the competitive advantage has shifted from the pursuit of quantity (number of active users, consumption, etc.) to the pursuit of quality (retention rate, customer unit price, etc.).

The long-term growth space is expected to be opened through live e-commerce, sinking market and cross-border e-commerce; The competition pattern will not change significantly in the short term. The head e-commerce platform focuses on consumer service, supply chain and logistics performance management, and its advantages are still obvious. Local life still has a broad market.
