Xu Qingru, the author who wrote the magically revised version of "Five Centimeters Per Second", of course also paid attention to the public opinion on the Internet.
She didn't follow the "Zhijia" forum, but followed larger platforms such as Weibo and Zhihu. She didn't expect that there were many users on Zhihu who were readers of "Five Centimeters Per Second" .
After this work came to an end, questions such as "How to evaluate the ending of Xu Nuo's new serial "5 Centimeters per Second"" and "How to evaluate a certain character in 5 Centimeters Per Second" quickly appeared on Zhihu.
Then below these questions, there are many emotional answers, and at first glance, it is because they were struck by the ending.
When Xu Qingru saw so many readers breaking their defenses because they were depressed, she actually felt a little intolerable. After all, she was originally an author who preferred to write refreshing articles...
If she were a reader, she would not like to read works that were too real, cruel, or tragic. The better the tragic work, the more stamina it would naturally have.
If she had a choice, she would of course insist on writing cool articles. However, cool articles are mostly written to entertain readers. Naturally, they won't make people unforgettable or deeply touch them, so they won't be able to gain a lot of readers. Literary value.
This time after she "made a nest", with this magically modified version of "5 Centimeters per Second", her literary and artistic value has taken off!
Although she didn't write a happy ending, her gains this time were really great. She felt that she might suffer from the disease of "not being able to write a good ending" in the future. Things like hair knives are simply addictive!
What makes her most interesting is that even if she criticizes her, there are still many people who fall in love with her because of this work and who spontaneously support it!
The moderator of the Five Seconds section of the "Home" forum is a good example.
And on Zhihu, there is no shortage of literary and artistic young people who speak for her, and the main thing is that she is a maverick!
For example, someone answered this question in a question titled "Why did the heroine in "Five Centimeters Per Second" pass by the hero in the end instead of waiting on the other side like she did when she was a child?"
The first love in a teenager's memory is always extremely beautiful, but when the memory overlaps with reality, the reality is so cruel.
Who hasn’t had a crush on a girl during their school days?
Memory makes the past ambiguous. You forget all her faults. She is so perfect in your heart. You regard this beautiful first love as a piece of pure land in your heart, and you always think of it when you are lonely and no one is around.
Even after many relationships, you always feel a bit lost, as if you can no longer like another person so hard. Although you thought about her countless times, you could never imagine what it would be like to meet her again.
After passing by her many years later, you look back to confirm whether she is the same person you have dreamed of countless times.
When their eyes meet, you realize that the only thing you can't forget is her in your memory, and she can never overlap with the figure in your memory.
To her, you are an experience in her youth and a passerby in life, but she already has her own life, so she just looks back at you and leaves.
But to you, she used to be your world, and her smiles are still vivid in your mind.
You suddenly find that what you miss is not her, but yourself in pure love and that period of wanton publicity.
You lowered your head and smiled, life must go on!
Why do I always think "5 Centimeters per Second" is a positive work that truly heals people's hearts? These are the reasons.
The male protagonist was relieved in the end. He had completely figured it out. He will face life with a more positive attitude next!
The good thing about Teacher Xu is that it has an ending that echoes the beginning. If the male and female protagonists live happily together in the end, it would be nothing more than a fairy tale and very cliché.
I have read her two ancient romances before. They are actually quite good, but after reading them, I almost never read them a second time. There is no value in chewing and savoring them, and they are too complete. The emotional line is also boring.
And this "5 Centimeters per Second" touched me right away. I even thought that if this work was adapted into a movie, it would be a very charming literary film. There are many scenes in it that left a lasting impression on me. Very deep impression!
This is why the tragedy touches people's hearts even more. In short, I really like this work with an ending that is very close to reality. If Teacher Xu can stick to her own path in the future, she will definitely become a famous contemporary writer!
…
That’s right, those young and artistic people on Zhihu who think they are capable really like this “passing by” ending, especially because it just echoes the beginning, and the foreshadowing is laid directly from the beginning, making them enjoy it. road.
And while everyone thinks that the ending of Five Seconds is very brutal and depressing, they think that the ending of relief is particularly positive and very close to reality, which can be said to sublimate the entire work!
Readers with different opinions between the two parties started various debates in major community forums. The young people liked this less than happy ending anyway, and said that "youth is not perfect" and "how many people live in different places in reality?" Is love the first love and finally coming together?", "If the ending is happy, it will only make the work mediocre."
The other party angrily retorted that "unsatisfactory youth does not mean that the ending is unsatisfactory, it is used to make readers' dreams come true", "There is something wrong with finding real people in it", "A happy ending will increase the sales of the work. high!"
This group of readers are basically readers who were caught off guard and stunned by the ending. They feel that Teacher Xunuo is really cheating. As long as they are mentally prepared, they will not be so uncomfortable!
These readers even directly shouted that if they read the promised cheating work next time, they would be dogs!
Of course Xu Qingru has also seen the various debates and rhythms on the Internet. Her next work will definitely not be so aggressive, but will give readers hope again...
At this time, the song "One more time One more chance" she specially wrote for "Five Centimeters Per Second" has finally been completed.
After the discussion among readers about "Five Centimeters Per Second" gradually subsided, [Qingge] quietly released the song, and then specifically stated that this was for this film. Works written.
It is worth mentioning that the copyright for the animated film "Five Seconds" has been spotted by a well-known animation company in the industry and wants to adapt it into an animated film.
After Xu Qingru discovered that the animation company's painting style was aesthetic and literary, similar to the style of Makoto Shinkai of the Earth World, of course he sold the copyright happily. The money he earned could be used to invest in his brother's upcoming career. A formal gaming company.
After "FSN" has been completed very well and is about to be released, "Aiyou" has established a new project, which is a card-drawing two-dimensional tower defense mobile game - "Arknights"!
This project is aimed at accumulating capital. There is also a two-dimensional action game project "Honkai Academy" that is used to accumulate technology. After all, it is a 3D game, and its target is "Honkai Impact 3" in the earth world. .
Without the technical accumulation of "Honkai Impact 3", the subsequent "Darkness Falls" "Genshin Impact" will naturally not be as successful.
As for "Arknights", it has good sales and reputation in the earth world. Its core gameplay is similar to "Plants vs. Zombies", but those "plants" have become two-dimensional beautiful girl characters.
