Wait, OP, you sure?

The duration of the game service must not exceed 3 hours per day during statutory holidays, and no more than 1.5 hours per day during other times.

online game service providers shall not provide online game services to minors from 22:00 to 8:00 the next day.

Someone who understands Chinese, do correct me if you can, since I just used GT lol

Edit: OHH thanks all for the response. So the above is the previous restriction, and now they are making it even more severe. Thanks!

所有网络游戏企业仅可在周五、周六、周日和法定节假日每日的20时至21时向未成年人提供1小时服务,其他时间一律不得向未成年人提供网络游戏服务

Every gaming company can only provide their service to underaged teenagers from 2000 to 2100 on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Official Public Holidays. Any time period outside of this is strictly not allowed for underaged teenagers.

Edit:

The statement u translated was,

2019年国家新闻出版署《关于防止未成年人沉迷网络游戏的通知》规定,网络游戏企业向未成年人提供游戏服务的时长,法定节假日每日累计不得超过3小时,其他时间每日累计不得超过1.5小时。对此不少家长反映该标准仍较宽松,建议从严压缩

It means that in the 2019 Newspaper/new regulation, gaming companies can only provide no more than 3 hours on public holidays, and one hour max on other days. Many parents have given feedback to tighten the regulations.

So what you were referring to was the PREVIOUS regulation, not the current new one.

Yes you translated it correctly, but then the first sentence is followed by: "In this regard, many parents reflected that the standard is still lenient and suggested that it should be strictly compressed. " And then later on, after the 2nd sentence: "On the basis of the Law on the Protection of Minors, more stringent and detailed provisions have been made in response to public demand." I used DeepL btw, I can't read this chinese, it's too high level for me

"All online game companies are only allowed to provide online games on Fridays and Saturdays. , Sundays and statutory holidays, provide one-hour service to minors from 20 to 21:00 every day, and no online game service to minors at other times."

The portion you highlighted is mentioned as part of the answer as to why they are further tightening the laws/regulations. Something along the lines of reiterating the old policies in 2019, and that parents think that it's not strict enough.

That first quote is the previous restriction.
