Nowadays, the landscape of online literature is not as good as it used to be. You don’t have to be good at writing to stand out. If you look at the most popular books at the moment and compare them with old books from the past, you will know that there are many low-quality books and low-level writing that are very popular among primary school students. Popular among middle school students, the platform is like the Grand View Garden on the top of the mountain. The ghost blowing out the lantern and the tomb robbing notes are gold when placed on it, and they are also gold when placed at the foot of the mountain. The book that is currently burning is a piece of iron. Even if it is placed in the Grand View Garden, it cannot change its essence. It's just to increase traffic and attention, so old bookworms can learn more about it.
Let’s talk about the current editor review style. The company must provide a basic salary and commission. Which book will naturally recommend which one has good results? Otherwise, it will affect the amount of salary payment, and some people will still use it. For example, if there is a book hanging on it, commercial companies consider profits, not the quality of the work. This is not what editors consider. The platform has gradually lacked a precipitated culture. , I think many people still use money to attract money when they create works. If the world's most popular singer, the Southern Song Dynasty Uncle Sanshu, is on another platform, I will also go.
Editors can check the writing system smoothly, look for cheats, and have a feel for it. Once they find it, they feel that they can review books. So how much do they know about writing skills? How much do you know about literary montage? How much do you know about other history, biology, science, chemistry, and astronomy? The answer is that they are not omnipotent, and they are very young. Many of them do not understand things such as "nine shallow and one deep, bursts of quantitative sentences, series within series, black and white mapping, picture sketches, emotional transitions..." and there are not dozens of people who can run a book now. It’s just like this. When I was in college, I once understood that no one wanted to read paid books. There were very few. Therefore, the results of some seemingly popular books were not guaranteed. It's true, but I can't say it's the author's fault, because I also want to make a statement.
I just want to say that the quality is too simplistic, is it all pretense and slap in the face? This will soon come to an end, and a large number of readers will be lost. Nowadays, primary school students and junior high school students who use Suokesuo generally read QQ, so adults will not read books? Those who can read can also listen to books! The screen is always full of mindless writing, and older readers will definitely not buy it.
It's like movies coming out of the United States. Do you watch whatever comes out? If you don’t like Spider-Man, it doesn’t have Cockroach Man. The positioning was wrong in the beginning. It’s not the readers who lead the market, nor the authors who lead the market, but the taste trend of the editorial department. This is different from ten years ago, so the ghost blows the light. The reason why a movie can be adapted is because of the good story and the high-quality writing and the erudite knowledge in the book. So, can it be adapted now? I think if it is adapted, who will watch it? It will only become LOW. Reading and watching are two different things, but this cannot be blamed on the editor, because editors also have to eat, which is the same as authors showing off to each other.
But the consequence is that there are fewer and fewer high-quality new articles on the platform, and the hard culture accumulated by the platform has become osteoporotic. It is not worthy of repeated adaptations of a theme like Mr. Jin Yong did, or even cannot be adapted. Business is indeed business, but it is missing Some bottom lines and aesthetics that can last for a long time.
If the author cares about making money, the editor cares about making money, and the company's shareholding system also cares about personal interests, then who cares about the long-term development of the center? IP has reached a high level, but not all IP can carry the weight.
I am not complaining when I say this, because I also love online writing. I grew up and studied directing. I can look at problems from the perspective of balanced development. Almost all platforms today follow this approach. So this is Is it what the leader wanted to see in the first place?
For example, take the theme of treasure hunting and adventure. If the country does not allow writing about tomb robbing, why not delete this category or delete all the books? Since it is kept, this is the initiative of the platform. The author takes second place and should be exposed. That day, and now it is very contradictory, no one will regard it as the main business, people who see through it will think so... So the depth and intensity of creation are gone, then who thinks about the future of online writing? We realize words into art, rather than words into simple and funny cartoons. Therefore, it is very difficult for me to persist. It is not that I don’t love creating stories.
This kind of literature without quality will empty the young group. Knowledge and specialization will come in the future, but not yet. When it reaches the extreme point of overload, some people will know to stop it, but many still like to make up for it.
Often the truth is in the hands of a few people.
