What is the future of text creation?
I heard the news of Master Ni Kuang's passing yesterday, which made me feel sorry. The news of Master Jin Yong's death two years ago also made me feel sad. Perhaps the departure of the master of writing is also a sign of the end of an era. Enlightenment in my childhood, in that era when there was no online reading platform, I frequently went in and out of the library just to borrow the works written by the two of them. The death of the two of them can only become a dead sound.
Since the end of World War II, the world has entered an era of rapid post-war development. The popularization of compulsory education has continuously increased the literacy rate and the literate population. Many people have been liberated from rural areas and have gone to work in big cities. The increase in literacy rate has also led to the prosperity of the publishing and printing industry. With the development of various bookstores and publishing houses, rented bookstores have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. At that time, text creators were in a good era. At that time, film and television entertainment was not yet popularized to such an extent, and the high cost of equipment purchase made Because of this, many hard-working people are discouraged. Text reading is the affordable entertainment for many ordinary people. However, with the development of the times and technology, the sound and light effects stimulate people's sensory cells. Film and television works have also compressed a lot of market share of text reading. . The invention of the Internet gave the last spiritual pressure to the inheritance of text creation. At that time, the transmission speed of the network was extremely slow, and the transmission and forwarding of audio-visual media was quite inconvenient. However, the advantages of text for low capacity were reflected. The online reading and creation platform allows many people who have no publishing resources to publish their own text content on the Internet platform first. Share their thoughts and ideas with people, but in the end, with the expansion of bandwidth, streaming platforms are gaining ground in the market. The pace of people's life is getting faster and faster, and even from long video platforms like YouTube, a large number of people have switched to short video platforms like Douyin.
On the other hand, it is so inconvenient to send letters to people far away. Everyone needs to choose words and sentences within the limited space when writing words. It seems that the ability to express words and language has been improved because of this. For paragraphs and narrative structure The requirements are higher to avoid mistakes in communication. However, the emergence of software such as line and whatapp not only makes communication more immediate, it seems that it is difficult for broken words to express people's feelings. Even if the Internet is far away, people's hearts The distance is farther. Many people have even degenerated to the point where their logic is confused and cannot fully express their thoughts. It seems that the overall level of people's communication skills has declined compared to the previous era. This may be a side effect of technological progress.
From a statistical point of view, the browsing data of text creation platforms such as ruffian gang medium has been relatively declining in recent years, which is in stark contrast to the rise of Douyin Kuaishou videos. Although matters has become a new star in text creation in recent years, it has become a place like a peach blossom garden. The interactive atmosphere of creators is very active, but it seems to be unable to turn the tide and return to the sky. However, in my opinion, another way to create text may be like a home camera. The exit method in the family is general. Although home cameras are withdrawn, the requirements for technology and equipment for high-end film and television creation are also rising. Although commercial cameras and video cameras are expensive, manufacturers will always buy them. The status of text creation in the early stage of script writing and copy editing is not unimportant. Perhaps the writing ability of the general public has generally declined, but the demand for commercial copy editing is still hot. Although text creation has gradually withdrawn from the stage of the public and has gradually become a hobby of a few people, I can't hide the emotion in my heart. One day, I, who love text, will grow old with the times and be swallowed up by the torrent. Before that, I can leave some materials that prove that I have lived, which is also the motivation of my creation to a certain extent.
Like my work? Don't forget to support and clap, let me know that you are with me on the road of creation. Keep this enthusiasm together!
