Yin Lian already has experience auctioning manuscripts. ·
In the future Xia Kingdom, manuscripts are no longer limited to handwritten paper documents. Of course, handwritten manuscripts will be more valuable, even more valuable than the calligraphy and paintings of celebrities of the same level.
However, even if it is not a handwritten manuscript, many will be recognized as long as the content is that of the manuscript. Of course, the premise is that the content of the manuscript has not been publicly released, or is somewhat different from the publicly released version. In other words, the value of the manuscript has been transferred from the physical object to the content.
This is also an inevitable change in the development of the times.
You must know that in the original world, authors increasingly switched from writing with pens to computer input, not to mention the future Xia Kingdom with more advanced technology. Xia Guo's authors can even realize the input of thoughts when writing manuscripts. Not only that, there is also the technology of fuzzy input of thoughts, which can automatically add some common sentences according to the author's daily behavioral style.
In this case, many times, they no longer identify an author's handwriting or style from the text, but more from the style and quality of the ideas and content expressed in the article to identify whether it is the work of a certain author. Of course, this method of judgment has a lot of errors. For example, many works by authors who were immature or failed to form a style in their early stages can easily be judged as forgeries or imitations. This often requires complicated historical tracing and argumentation. Name corrected.
However, Yin Lian has confidence in "Ming Fang's Purge of Injustice", and currently Yue Ke has roughly formed his own style. However, because he is still young, his style has not been refined over time and is not very mature. But even so, this was the period when her creative enthusiasm was at its peak. To be fair to Yin Lian, the plot of "Ming Fang's Cleansing of Wrongs" is even more exciting and clever than her finished work in her previous life.
After all, it is still difficult for Yue Ke at this age to write works with male protagonists, but heroines of similar ages make it easier for her to integrate her own thoughts and feelings. Therefore, in terms of completion, Yin Lian does not have to worry about the quality at all. She is very confident in the appraisal results of the work. The only thing she needs to worry about is that during the appraisal process, different thinking at the same time due to different circumstances caused controversy.
But there is actually no need to worry about this. After all, the world is five hundred years apart, and it is difficult for people to conduct practical research. They can only make inferences based on existing documents. Even though Xia Kingdom's technology was so advanced in later generations, it is actually difficult to find hundreds of years of historical records - this is due to two reasons, one is the way the data is saved, and the other is the upper limit of data access. The former is because most of the current data storage is through optical computers. The advantage is that it is easy to copy and spread, and it is also convenient to organize and query. However, the disadvantage is that every time a loss occurs, there will be a batch of losses, and it is too convenient to damage. The latter is years of data. If all of it can be connected to the Internet, the number of useless access channels that need to be retained will be astronomical. No matter how advanced technological development is, it is impossible to keep up with the speed of data accumulation. Therefore, in order to keep the star network clean and efficient. After its reading value drops to a certain baseline, a lot of news or intelligence will be transferred to a database that is not connected to the Internet or requires permission to query and read for information storage. This can reduce resource usage and ensure information queryability.
But even so, there isn't much information left over from Yue Ke's time. Because she was a famous writer during her lifetime, she must have left many more life stories than ordinary people. But at the same time, because she is a homebody, she may have an active mind but a boring life. As a result, except for some writing-related information and exchanges with colleagues, she did not leave much other life information.
This is a pity for readers, but it is not a bad thing at all for Yin Lian.
Because the previous "Dream of Red Mansions" can be regarded as a kind of manuscript according to Xia Guo's standards, the process of Yin Lian's release itself involves contact with relevant institutions and industry personnel. If you carry out this operation at this time, you can quickly find the corresponding channels, basically getting twice the result with half the effort.
Yin Lian contacted several institutions that had previously added relevant contact information and asked them about the manuscript auction. Customer service jobs like this are usually performed by artificial AI, and in order to adapt to the characteristics of this type of work, customer service AI often compresses the emotional response system, so the other party's reaction is normal when entering information.
But when it came to manual review, the reviewers were all blown away.
AI is not suitable for creative or aesthetic work because many of their emotions are created based on templates rather than occurring naturally. Although when there are too many templates, most people can't tell the difference between them and real people, but even if they can't tell, it will still be reflected in the work results.
AI cannot create innovative works, and its judgment of aesthetic work is often biased. Although there is artistic AI, the truly top-level work will not be assigned to AI, but to humans who are well-known in the industry.
In terms of copyright identification, various institutions perform dual judgments by machines and humans. The machine summarizes the data and makes logical judgments, while the human reviewer evaluates the article emotionally and on an overall level.
The work uploaded by Yin Lian stated that it was a "posthumous work of Yue Ke". To be fair, if they had seen this description from the beginning, many reviewers would probably not take it seriously or even ignore it.
However, the work submitted by Yin Lian passed the review of the AI system. Basically, the AI system is quite authoritative in this regard. It will only swipe more works and will not miss fake works. So even if it is impossible, a kind of reviewer will give priority to this work and start reading it. Watch this How clever must the forger or imitator be to deceive the latest review system and let it judge it as Yue Ke's work?
In many cases, Yue Ke's works have been somewhat deified in modern literary circles. As for Yin Lian's first reading experience, Yin Lian felt that her work was indeed excellent and touching. But is there really no modern work that is better than hers? Not really. But some literary works represent not only the author's own literary attainments, but also the cultural spirit and emotional legacy that have been precipitated by time. Her works are the "childhood" of countless people, and their attached value and emotion are naturally extraordinary.
In this case, the machine's judgment is actually more fair. After all, it will only judge based on the writing style and article structure, and will not add three stars to it in advance.
In this case, when the reviewer reads it, he will undoubtedly read it with bias.
"Mingfang Clears the Wrongs? Doesn't this name sound too old-fashioned? Why does it sound like an old-fashioned folk tale that is five hundred years out of date?"
"It's a bit crude. If you can imitate it to the point of fooling the AI, why can't you come up with a more up-to-date name?"
The projection of a small reviewer nearby hesitated for a moment and hesitated to speak. He wanted to say something fair about "Ming Fang's Cleansing the Wrongs". He also wanted to say that the titles of Yue Ke's other books could not be said to be very trendy. But after a slight hesitation, he said nothing.
He also felt that this application was a prank, so even though he felt that the evaluation was unfair, he refused to speak to a fake work and simply chose to remain silent.
In this way, several reviewers opened the uploaded materials at about the same time and started reading.
When they opened it, everyone's expressions were scornful.
But after a short period of time, the expressions of several people began to become cautious one after another.
Even if the documents are opened at the same time, due to differences in review styles and reading abilities, there is a gap in the reading speed of several people. The person who read the fastest, after ten minutes of reading, no longer bothered to review it in a professional manner. Instead, he was completely attracted by the plot conflicts and character emotions in the story, and started reading at a normal reading speed. .
The other reviewers persisted a little longer, but as they read later, they became less and less concerned with evaluating the text. They all just felt that the story was really wonderful and couldn't help but be attracted to it.
Then they heard a scolding: "... Damn! No more!?"
Everyone's hearts froze, and they all suddenly realized that they were not reading a favorite book, but reviewing manuscripts by famous people, and their hearts suddenly tightened.
Everyone hurriedly looked through the catalog and discovered to their sorrow that Yin Lian had only submitted three chapters of the plot. Although the three chapters of that era were different from now, and were almost equivalent to one-third of a book, they were still unfinished plots. What's even more outrageous is that this type of chapter often gets stuck at the end of each chapter, so after reading the three submitted chapters, the story just stops at a certain plot point that makes people want to know what's going to happen next.
The evaluator who saw it the fastest suddenly became angry and said: "Why does he still have a card!? Do you think that as long as he whets our appetite, we will give him a pass?"
This is somewhat unreasonable. You know, for valuable manuscripts, many owners will not upload the full text when they come for appraisal, but will choose to upload a part. In this way, even if the authentication fails, the full text will not be exposed. Otherwise, in the event of illegal behavior, the ownership of the manuscript will not be lost.
However, when you find out halfway through a good article that there is no more, it is definitely something that makes people furious and even lose their mind. The other reviewers also fully understand the anger of their colleagues.
But it's gone, it's gone. Although he was a little angry, the reviewer actually knew that it was unreasonable to get angry with Yin Lian over this matter. In desperation, he had to turn the document back to the beginning and read it again.
During the second reading, he restrained his reader mentality a little and worked hard to show his professional qualities during the reading process.
At this time, other people also finished reading the manuscript one after another. After the last person finished reading, everyone entered the virtual meeting room.
The chief interrogator asked: "Dongquan, what do you think?"
The judge who was asked was silent for a moment and then replied: "I can't be sure."
This answer would definitely be ridiculed at the beginning, but at this time there was silence in the conference room. Rationally, many people felt that this must be a forgery, but after everyone read it, they felt that this story was extremely exciting and completely in Yue Ke's style. Many people even think that this article is one of the best among Yue Ke's works, and they have already become addicted to it and even become a fan of it after reading less than half of it.
Even they themselves did not believe that they would not be able to give a clear judgment to such a manuscript that seemed to be a fake at first glance.
