The profession of a gamer has an extremely high “fighting” rate
In recent years, the gaming industry has made unprecedented breakthroughs. Along with that, professional gamers gradually appear more and become a globally recognized profession. However, few people know that, behind the flashy appearance of “million-view” matches, there is a long process of striving and fierce competition to create a recognized professional gamer.
This is clearly shown in densely populated countries, typically China. Even gamers in this country have to go through extremely fierce competition to achieve their goals. Recently, Sohu newspaper reported on an e-sports training center that has been operating for 7 years in Chengdu. During its time of operation, this famous center recorded 800 registered students, but only 2 people successfully became official players.
Gamers have a higher chance of winning the civil service exam?
The ratio of 1:400 seems like a great odds, but according to many experts, this is a very high success rate in the e-sports world. Even the actual scale of this ratio is much more terrifying, up to 1:120,000. Obviously, this is an extremely low success rate if any gamer wants to pursue and go on the professional path.
This rate is even said to be higher than the rate of taking civil service exams in China. According to Vietnamnet newspaper, about 2.6 million candidates applied for 37,100 jobs at government agencies in January 2023. This means that the odds will only be about 1:70.
So you can see how big the competition is between professional gamers. Only those who are brave enough and truly determined can pursue and achieve glory and fame.
