Disclosure: The organizers of ChinaJoy paid my way to Shanghai. Our coverage remains objective.

One of the best things about my job is talking to smart people about games. That’s one of the things I’ll enjoy about our conferences like our upcoming GamesBeat 2015 event, on Oct. 12-13 in San Francisco. We want to always find the right people to interview that our readers and event attendees want to hear from.
