WeChat emoticons comprehensively "stop smoking"! Tencent official announcement: The cigar boss has become the god of war with a crooked mouth

----------------------------------

February On the 28th, Tencent’s official Weibo stated that the WeChat emoticons completely stopped smoking. The smoking-related emoticon "Lei Lei" was originally a cuckolded boss holding a cigar, but now he has become a cuckolded "god of war" with a crooked mouth.

In fact, this emoticon has been modified once before, in 2017 In 2016, the Beijing Tobacco Control Association stated that it was wrong to hold a cigarette with a "cool" expression on Weibo. Smoking does not mean being cool. It was very inappropriate to use it to promote coolness and could easily lead to teenagers smoking, so Weibo was offline. Cool" emoticon.

Subsequently, the Tobacco Control Association sent a letter to Tencent, suggesting that QQ and WeChat also take action to remove relevant emoticons. In 2017, QQ and WeChat successively removed attraction-related emoticons, and the cigar in the mouth of QQ's "leisure" emoticon was replaced by a green leaf. This also caused many netizens to joke, their expressions kept changing, and it seemed that the cuckold on their heads could never be removed.

Smokers are familiar with the dangers of tobacco. It is addictive, can cause lung disease and tooth discoloration, and can also affect the health of people. others. According to the "2020 China Smokers Market Survey Report", the number of smokers in China has been on a downward trend since 2015. However, due to the huge population base, there are still more than 300 million smokers, of which more than 6% are teenagers.

In order to prevent second-hand smoke from affecting others, the country has banned smoking in public places, banned the sale of cigarettes online, and has been raising tobacco taxes. It is reported that China Tobacco Corporation’s total industrial and commercial taxes and profits in 2020 were 1.2803 billion yuan, and profits handed over to the country exceeded one trillion yuan.

In order to reduce the number of smokers, the China Tobacco Control Association has banned film and television works from excessively promoting smoking since 1993. In 2006, non-governmental organizations voluntarily protested the excessive use of smoking scenes. The Dirty Ashtray Award was given to the film. In 2014, the State Council promulgated the "Regulations on Smoking Control in Public Places (Draft for Review)", which stipulates that "scenes of smoking in prohibited places" and "scenes of smoking in the presence of minors", the production unit's top general With a fine of NT$30,000, it is known as the strictest smoking ban in the country.

WeChat, QQ, Weibo and other platforms should also not promote smoking. It is a misunderstanding to equate smoking with being cool and laid-back. Tencent can respond to the call of the Beijing Smoking Cessation Association and should provide support. Since WeChat and QQ emoticons have been around for a long time, some of them may still be irregular. I hope Tencent can also check them carefully and modify them in advance.
