Another popular phrase in the web-travel world - "Crossing through the Qing Dynasty does not rebel, the chrysanthemum is powered by an electric drill"

Novels are a more "popular" and "grassroots" genre, while TV dramas require more circle accumulation, network, and capital operation.

Novel creation, although it is said that if you have connections and capital, it will also help, but in theory, a good novel can be completed by the author alone. Therefore, the author can write what he wants to write and what the reader wants to see to a greater extent.

In the novel, you can choose the most common and popular group identity - national identity, to attract readers with the same identity, without worrying about the requirements of investors, the eyes of acquaintances who are not looking up in the circle, or the official political correctness. flag.

Who are the most readers in China? - Han Chinese.

What emotions do they generally hold when reading historical fiction ? - The national sentiment of the Han nationality.

In what ways are their national sentiments reflected? ——Sympathy for the slaughter and enslavement of the nation in history; grief and unwillingness for the savage destruction of civilization; regret for not being able to be born in that era, and not being able to go back and change the course of history.

How can web novels take advantage of this emotion? ——Let the protagonist travel back in their place, prevent the fate of ancestors from being slaughtered and enslaved, and let the protagonist lead the compatriots to a new future. Let the readers enjoy themselves in this substitution, and have enough addiction.

Then again, which two dynasties were killed by the barbarians, making readers most tempted to turn the tide? - Song and Ming dynasties.

When it comes to TV, everything is different.

When you make a TV series, you have to find actors, investors, and crew, right? You have to have connections and circles, right? You have to keep your head down and talk to them about cooperation and work together until the project is completed, right?

In China's cultural and entertainment world, which ethnic group (relative to its population) is unusually large? ——

Why are they so many? ——They relied on the "cultural literacy" accumulated by the two hundred years of the first Qing Dynasty who smoked the Chinese people's fat, and took advantage of the opportunity brought by the capital of Beijing, and entered a large number of ZF related departments.

Which dynasty do they like? - Qing Dynasty.

They are in groups of three or five, occupying various positions. You want to make a TV series against the Qing Dynasty in the late Ming Dynasty, in which you do not talk about national unity but shout "kill the Tartars", is this possible? - not very realistic.

It's that simple.

Say a few more words.

I have always said that nationalism comes from instinct and reality, and precedes theory, which is evident from people's tendency to appreciate literary and artistic works.

Why? Among the historical time-travel novels, the most popular type of novels—traveling in the late Ming Dynasty , the protagonists are all like this: eliminate Jiannu, end the Ming Dynasty, and build a new world.

If the behavior of the protagonist of the novel often represents the subconsciousness of most readers , this phenomenon shows that people already understand nationalism and understand the "inheritance of historical memory". Otherwise, why would they be reluctant to transmigrate into "Eight Banners athletes" and happily participate in the massacres of the Han Chinese? Why not help the Qing Dynasty to expand thousands of miles, the stars and the sea?

In reality, it is okay to sing high-profile national unity, but in the virtual world, without all the baggage of political correctness, the nationalism in people's bones is revealed.

In the long river of history , you can only choose one kind of historical memory; if you are proud of the great achievements of "My Qing Dynasty", and sympathize with the tragic resistance and tragic experience of the Han people in the late Ming Dynasty, then you are clearly discerning .

From another perspective, people also instinctively know that "patriotism" and "nationalism" are different. The protagonists are "Ming people", but they are not "patriotic", but know that after driving away the Manchu invaders, their compatriots deserve a better country and a better future. The state is the tool of the nation. For the interests of the nation and their own ambitions, they often choose to replace it and establish a new state.

Another popular phrase in the online travel industry can also be used as an annotation for this matter - "Chun Qing does not rebel, the chrysanthemum is powered by an electric drill". Since you are a "Qing people", why don't you "love the Qing Dynasty"? Why not implement "patriotism"? Why was "anti-Qing" political correctness at that time? People already know the answer.

Again, in reality, under ( ), there are many thoughts that have been deceived, distorted, and raped by walls.

These thoughts will surface in the "virtual world" without the shackles, and become a reflection, reflecting people's hearts.

This is their natural choice.
