Homecoming of Rebirth

Chapter 417 The troubles of happiness

Today's under the banyan tree is not the same as the previous life, and the current web literature industry is completely different from the previous life.

Thanks to Sanshi's strong support for Banyan Tree over the years.

To put it bluntly, it was burning money, and Mr. Ning's website was the easiest to handle.

Because, the task Qi Lei gave him is:

I don't expect you to make money, just spend money on me!

Spend money on content!Spend money to support the author!

The result of burning money like this is that although the spring of paid online reading has not yet arrived, the spring of online authors has come, and it is almost summer.

Except for top authors such as Cai Wuming, Li Fanfan, Anne Jealousy, and Hanzizi, relying on copyright, website sharing and other means, they have properly entered the high-income group.

A large number of grassroots authors also have the foundation to support their families with writing.

how to say?

The level of the network is uneven, and the problem of following the trend of creation is serious.

This is the characteristic of this industry, and no one can change it.

Most of the outstanding ones are just a few works and a few authors.

However, the soil for cultivating excellent works and high-quality authors is the environment for supporting grassroots authors.

There are always a few gene mutations that break out of the encirclement, which makes people shine.

Up to now, the number of works stored under the banyan tree has exceeded [-].

The number of "long-length" novels exceeding one million words reached 7000.

The number of high-quality works has also exceeded [-].

Well, this data will be placed in later generations, not to mention the QD of the Land of Demonstration, the smallest reading website is more than this number.

But there is no way, this is 02, and it is still a barbaric era, a million words is really a masterpiece.

Besides...

With a daily update of [-], you can still guarantee continuous updates. That is really hard work so that readers want to cry.

Therefore, in two or three years, it is already very good to have this data.

But don't worry!Although the number of under the banyan tree is incomparable with the later generations, the victory lies in the category has been equal to the later generations.

Thanks to Qi Lei's trick.

On the subject matter of web articles, I really broke my heart with Mr. Ning.

With his unremitting efforts and crazy indoctrination, at present, the works under the banyan tree have covered fantasy, science fiction, urban, entertainment, heavy literature, fairy tales, sports, history, and all the categories of online literature in later generations are now available.

In the past, Mr. Ning had no feelings for this urban rebirth article, and Qi Lei, who was in a hurry, almost didn't end up writing one himself.

That is to say, there are too many things to do and no time, or the second web article serialization will be born.

Qi Lei indoctrinates Ning Cunfu, Ning Cunfu goes back and indoctrinates the editor, and then the editor indoctrinates the author.

Slowly, it became what it is now.

Now, it just comes in handy.

As for whether American netizens will like it?

how to say?

Even after 20 years, Internet literature has been gradually recognized, but there are still many people who think that it is not popular, it is not considered literature, and it is extremely vulgar.

However, Qi Lei doesn't think so.

Regardless of whether you are serious literature, popular literature, or online literature, in fact, from the perspective of communication, the functions are the same, and they are all carriers of information.

The only difference is who to send the information to.

Serious literature does not speak human language, it is for those who can understand even if they are not human language.

"The night gave me black eyes, and I use them to find light."

If you don't drink 20 years of ink, who can understand?

Popular literature is for the middle class, or the lower class with certain ideas.

"Education is not making a fuss."

Look at Master Shuo's sentence, whether you drink ink or not, you can understand it, but the understanding is different.

Internet literature, on the other hand, is an entertainment sketch for ordinary people.

"That bastard, Lao Cang, has been discontinued again." Someone must have commented below, "Scream!"

This is the normal state of ordinary people. They don't have the energy to think about the serious literature that beats around the bush, and they are not good at thinking about the deep chill in popular literature.

Just give it away!

Simple and clear, express what the author wants to express in entertainment.

You say it has no nutrition, no depth?

However, it actually has a lot of information, right?

As for criticizing it for passing incorrect values?

Dung beetles stare at shit every day!There are those who convey correct values, and there are quite a few of them!

cough cough! !Like old man, right?

Moreover, there is actually one characteristic of literature that is unstoppable.

That is, with the continuous passage of time and civilization, literature is showing a trend of continuous decentralization.

Both China and foreign countries have the same trajectory, from the highest place, gradually devolved, and spread to ordinary people.

Regardless of China or foreign countries, looking back at history, you will find this trajectory.

What was literature in the first place?

is text.

What is text for?Worship and record.

The early texts were exclusive to priests and rulers, and ministers did not necessarily have the right to use them.

When the evolution of characters is completed, literature naturally emerges.

But what are these literatures?

It is poetry, song, policy, theory!

Poetry is what is needed for sacrifice, and policy is where authority comes from.

Therefore, the early Chinese literature is "Yi", "Spring and Autumn", "The Analects", "The Book of Songs", "Tao Te Ching"...

Later, literature was transferred from rulers and priests to literati.

As a result, Tang poetry and Song Ci became the mainstream of literature.

No longer serious, literati use it to please themselves and express their emotions.Ordinary people still have no participation, only echo.

In the Yuan Dynasty, Han Confucianism was weak, and literati could no longer be officials. They could only make a living by writing, so they put down their personal appearance to please the powerful and rich.

There is Yuanqu.

Yuanqu is actually an opera script. Ordinary people still don’t participate. What kind of drama do you watch if you don’t have money?

In the Ming Dynasty, further decentralization, story books began to prevail, that is, novels.

Most of the classical novels surviving today, including the Four Great Masterpieces, originated in the Ming Dynasty.Not only the rich can read it, but ordinary people who can read and write are also qualified to read it, but it is still not affordable for the poor.

When it came to the Qing Dynasty, it was not mentioned, let alone literature, it was a disaster for Chinese characters and history, and it could be called a step backward.

Qi Lei especially dislikes the Qing Dynasty. Some people may think that he is narrow-minded, and Manchus are also Chinese.

no! !

Qi Lei does not have any prejudice against the Manchus, and even many things that the Qing Dynasty did that were criticized by later generations, Qi Lei also thinks that it is just a normal way of ruling the dynasty, and there is nothing to criticize.

He didn't like it, or scolded him, mainly because of that old boy Qianlong.

Let's put it this way, if the emperor who is the most harmful to the history of Chinese civilization is selected, Qianlong is not the first, but he can also enter the top three.

Because, he repaired a... Sikuquanshu!

It is said to be repairing books, but it is actually destroying books.

Siku Quanshu contains nearly 3500 kinds of books, [-] volumes, and [-] million words in total.

But, who knows how much he destroyed?

The number of cultural treasures accumulated by China in the past two to three thousand years is only much more than the number of records.

Let him cut more than half of it.

Let's put it this way, after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, all official documents, decrees, and minutes were well preserved.

It is the most authoritative Ming history, the most complete official record in world history.

In the hands of Qianlong, a fire burned millions.

As long as it is not conducive to ruling, burn it all!

As a result, later generations have doubts about the history of the Ming Dynasty but have no way to verify it, and they dare not fully believe the history of the Ming Dynasty revised by the Qing Dynasty, because they have changed too much.

Far away.

Beyond the Qing Dynasty, literature was further devolved, and popular literature emerged.

Then, martial arts literature, science fiction literature...

You will find that the threshold of literature is getting lower and lower and more grounded.

That is to say, more and more ordinary people, everyone can understand, see through, and see the direction of fun.

So, what is the web?It is a development trend!

Don't think that reading online articles is not advanced, as everyone knows, advanced ones used to be vulgar.

When popular literature first came out, serious literature was scolded worse than online literature.

When science fiction literature and Jin Yong first emerged, they were also severely criticized by popular literature.

Don't make fun of anyone, because after more than ten or a few decades, there will be a new genre of literature, and it is estimated that Internet literature will also have to be scolded.

As for Xiaobaiwen...

Long Aotian...

Is it really unlevel and annoying?

No!

The willingness of later generations to hate and despise these themes is not too white and too low-level, but homogeneous.

It can be explained in one sentence. When you read Xiaobaiwen and Long Aotian for the first time, you must not be so disgusted. Even most people can still read it with gusto and find it very fresh.

It is because there are more people who write, more people who follow the trend, and more novices who lack life experience, and after aesthetic fatigue, they start to hate it.

The general public all over the world are actually the same, just as there is a reason why no one does not like comedy.

Chinese people love to read online articles, and Americans are no exception.As long as he reads it, he will accept the information loaded in it, so it is logical to output ideas.

and! !

In 2002, there was an advantage that was not available in 2020, which would increase the odds of winning online articles overseas.

That is - Western Fantasy!

Many people in later generations may not know that the early fantasy works were influenced by the Western deification system, so the story structure and story setting are mostly Western fantasy themes.

To put it bluntly, it is a bit xenophobia.

At that time, foreign gods were easier to mess with than Chinese gods, and Western magic and knights were more attractive than heavenly soldiers and generals.

Therefore, many of the works under the banyan tree do not need to consider the issue of Western acceptance at all.

The power system and worldview are all Western.
