Talking Tea at the Teahouse: Jialun’s Insights. Hello, everyone,Welcome to this episode of “Jialun Speaks,” where we review the week’s industry news and explore the latest trends.

Second, the potential for monetization through video ads;
and finally, players’ desire for games with more innovative gameplay.
