男：无论您是否会玩儿游戏哈，想必今天都一定看到了国产游戏《黑神话：悟空》的消息。
女：这个游戏的制作精良呢，其实体现在方方面面。游戏内大量1:1复刻了国内的文物古建。
男：根据不完全的统计，游戏团队在全国精心选取了36个景点作为游戏背景。其中呢，山西的取景地就有27处。
女：游戏上线首天各大在线旅游平台上山西旅游的搜索量就明显地上涨，山西文旅也迅速地跟进，发布了多条宣传视频。在线下呢，还将会发布《黑神话》的旅游专线，策划启动“跟着悟空游山西”等等活动，立志要接住这份泼天的流量。
男：是，不仅是山西，像重庆、浙江等地的文旅账号也纷纷上线了“悟空”大片儿，邀请大家来取景地提前“取经“。
女：实际上呢好的游戏IP哈不仅在游戏圈内火，同时呢也能够成功地破圈。《黑神话：悟空的》火爆也带火了一条文旅发展的新思路，就是经典的IP游戏再加上地方文旅的跨界联动。除此之外呢，这只中国猴子还成功地硬控了海外的网友啊。该游戏一上线迅速成为了多个游戏平台的销量榜首，更在美国、新加坡、泰国、加拿大、巴西等12个国家霸榜。
男：带有浓烈的中国文化特色的IP火爆也是中国文化对外传播的有益尝试。这次中国玩家在国产游戏当中也可以骄傲自豪一把了。

国产游戏《黑神话：悟空》爆火网络，带火多地文旅 （Advanced level）

Meet Cyrus Davis, who has spent all his working life in journalism. He's been a news reporter, sports reporter, and headline writer. Now, he works for The Evening Star, a local daily paper published in Birmingham, and he is the editor of the paper's online version. "The Star covers current affair, sport, crime, and so on, and there is always at least one item about a cultural subject. But the sad truth is that newspaper sales are falling fast, and newspapers could disappear forever if the industry cannot make money from online sales."
