For only a few tens of yuan, you can have a relationship with a "virtual lover" you have never met, chat with yourself, play games, watch movies... At present, this kind of paid emotional service through the Internet has become many young people Seek emotional comfort and decompression.

"Xinhua Viewpoint" reporter's investigation found that while "virtual lovers" create "sweetness", they also hide various traps. Some people spend a lot of money for "virtual lovers", but in the end they end up with "lost love and wealth".

"Virtual Lovers" let many young people "on the top"

Xiao Chen, who has never been in a relationship, has recently fallen into a "passionate love". Every day, she chats with her "boyfriend" on WeChat, but the way they get along is limited to online chat.

Xiao Chen works in an Internet company in Beijing. The huge work pressure made her breathless, but she had nowhere to talk. By chance, she learned that "virtual lovers" could be found online.

Driven by curiosity, she placed a one-hour online "virtual lover" service and started chatting. She confided her troubles to her "virtual boyfriend", who not only listened patiently, but also comforted and encouraged her from time to time, making her feel more relaxed.

The one-hour chat ended soon, and Xiao Chen felt still unfulfilled. Since then, she has placed orders for renewal almost every day, chatting with her "virtual boyfriend". "He has a nice voice and comforts others. I know this is not a real relationship, but his company makes me very'upper'." Xiao Chen said, she is a little inseparable from her "virtual boyfriend."

On an e-commerce platform, the reporter tried to search for "virtual lovers" but did not find related products. After changing the keywords to "little brother", "young sister" and "chat", more than 1,500 products appeared. Judging from the search results, many stores have been open for less than half a year, but the monthly sales of goods are more than a thousand times, up to nearly 10,000 times.

After the reporter contacted the customer service of a store, he received a menu detailing the types of services, including chatting, playing games, sleeping, waking up, and writing homework, etc. Accompaniment was provided by means of microphone and voice, and the cost According to the chat time, the level of the practitioner, the content of the service, etc., the price ranges from tens to hundreds of yuan per hour, and the monthly subscription can reach up to 18,000 yuan.

A merchant told reporters that many consumers, facing tremendous pressure in life, choose "virtual lovers" as a way of expressing their emotions, "to talk to strangers about their concerns, and they are more able to speak freely."

According to him, the practitioners of "virtual lovers" are mostly college students. There are more than 80 shop assistants in his shop, among which 90% are college students. The 22-year-old Xiaobai is one of the college clerks. He has done this part-time job for less than half a year. "Being a'tree hole' (listening to people's confession), helping others to resolve bad feelings, and at the same time earning pocket money, kills two birds with one stone." Xiaobai said.

The "Krypton Gold" Trap behind "Sweet Bombing"

The reporter's interview and research found that while "virtual lovers" provide companionship and spiritual comfort to many young people, they also conceal many risks.

Recently, Xiaofu ended a "love affair" that lasted for nearly two months due to the increasingly cold words of his "boyfriend" and the continuous delay in replies. After spending tens of thousands of yuan for the "virtual boyfriend", she realized that the "boyfriend" loves not herself, but money.

Xiaofu said that when she first met, her "boyfriend" would coax her with various sweet words. Every time it was almost time, he persuaded Xiaopay to renew the order. "He said he fell in love with me and wanted to talk more."

Under the "sweet bombardment" of "boyfriend", Xiaopay continued to renew fees and rewards, becoming "boyfriend" and "krypton gold". After a long time, Xiao Fu discovered that his "boyfriend" was only attentive to himself when he was rushing for performance, and he didn't care about it. Xiaopay also thought about calling the police, but she had to give up when she learned that renewal and rewarding were personal consumption behaviors.

The potential crime of "virtual lovers" has attracted the attention of the police. Ding Hao, director of the Lanzhou Anti-Telecom Network Fraud Center, said that some unscrupulous merchants will continue to expand their service items after catching the emotional pain points of consumers, tempting consumers to renew endlessly. Consumers even encountered "killing pigs", and finally "lost love and wealth."

On social platforms such as Douban and Zhihu, many netizens share the experience of finding "virtual lovers". Among them, there are many cases of "false love-lost" such as Xiaofu. The reasons are similar.

The experience of many netizens falling into the "sweet trap" was confirmed by reporters' personal interviews. A reporter placed an order for a "virtual lover" on an e-commerce website, and chatting for just half an hour was filled with all kinds of "earth-flavored love stories" from the other party. Asked if there is a fixed language technique, the other party confessed that training and sentimental routines will be provided before entering the job to create an artificial "sweet atmosphere" for consumers.

"Every time I receive a guest, I have basic speaking skills, and I feel embarrassed to read some words myself." said a practitioner interviewed.

Through further interviews, the reporter learned that some businesses also provide emotional counseling services under the banner of "virtual lovers", and secretly provide "naked chats" and "wenai" to customers in need (that is, sexual provocations through language descriptions). ) And other soft pornographic services.

On a video website, reporters searched for "virtual lovers" and found that live videos of voice conversations with "virtual lovers" emerged one after another. Many video titles used "driving" and "dirty" as keywords, and the content of the dialogue was full of vulgar and pornographic content. Significant words.

In a short video "Revealing the Inside Story of the "Virtual Lovers" Industry", the video uploader stated that he had been engaged in "virtual lovers" for nearly 7 years and expressed concern about the chaos in the industry. "Every year, this industry is rectified because some businesses secretly provide pornographic services." He said that this is also the reason why many e-commerce platforms block keywords such as "virtual lovers" and "chat".

In a related video, a netizen shared his experience of applying for a "virtual lover" in a message. In the induction training, the business asked them to practice various pornographic phrases and learn "wenai" skills.

This netizen also broke the news that many "virtual lovers" businesses also recruit minors to do part-time jobs. On Douban, Xiaohongshu and other software, the reporter searched for many recruitment posts of "virtual lovers". Although the recruitment requirements stipulate that job applicants must be adults over the age of 18, the business did not require proof of age when the reporter pretended to apply for the job.

Don't let "accompaniment" become "compensation"

Yang Suchang, a professor at the School of Economics of Lanzhou University, said that at present, many young people often have nowhere to hide in the face of the pressure of marriage and love from their elders. In a virtual relationship, young people can set roles according to their own preferences, and practitioners will also create "personal settings" according to the needs of consumers.

"This kind of immersive love experience is easy to indulge. Faced with a near-perfect virtual object, young people will have a lot of emotions. If you accidentally "accompany", it will become a "lost trip"." Yang Suchang said.

Xiaofu, who was obsessed with this, is now a little scared. "Occasionally chatting and talking about emotions,'virtual lovers' are a good choice. If you are too addicted or encounter bad businesses, you may pay a heavy price." Xiaofu said that she hopes that the relevant departments can strengthen supervision and treat "virtual lovers" Standardized management of service mode and content will prevent more consumers from falling into the trap like her, and it is difficult to defend their rights.

Yang Suchang called on relevant departments to further regulate the provision of accompanying services on Internet platforms. Internet platforms should strictly review related services to protect the rights and interests of consumers. Many interviewed businesses also said that industry standards should be strengthened so that accompaniment services can play a more positive and stimulating role.

Several interviewees suggested that families, schools, media, and various social groups should guide young people to establish rational and healthy values, feelings, and family views, help them relieve their ideological pressure and psychological confusion, and expand the breadth and breadth of youth social interactions. In-depth, avoid excessive indulge in "online dating". (Finish)
