<li>We suggest that AIGC will be a short-term driver for the major companies in the online gaming industry. It could assist the rise of small-to-mid-size companies in the long run.</li>
<li>In the next 1-2 years, we expect that Tencent and NetEase’s EPS may improve by 13%/24% because of AIGC.</li>
<li>By adding more AIGC functions, Unity may also increase customers’ retentions in the near term. Maintain BUY to Tencent, NetEase, and Unity.</li>
