The essay campaign attracted more than 2,200 participants, about 70% of whom were post-90s and post-00s creators, and the creation of the younger generation gave Oracle a new interesting story. Among the 2571 essay works, there are both science fiction themes about the frontier future and mythological stories from ancient China, both the historical feelings of the home country and the world, and the realistic themes that reflect the present.

The reading writer "Walker Yousan" was born in 1992, and his "Dansheng" takes the oracle bone "Dan" as the core, and uses the myth and legend of "Houyi Shooting Sun" to tell the story of the first rise of the sun; the work "Home Mirror" of the post-reading writer "Seeing the Sword of Different Thoughts" starts from the oracle bone "Ruo" and depicts the ancestral and grandchildren of modern society; the "Chinese New Year's Eve Night of the Outpost" created by the reading god writer "Shui Qingzhu" draws inspiration from the oracle "Ji" and depicts the selfless love of border guards guarding the territory. The three writers all said that starting from the beauty of oracle bone writing, the beauty of the story of online literature is created, and the traditional culture represented by ancient characters is becoming the source of inspiration for good stories.
At the "Oracle Promotion Public Welfare Project" theme conference, the National Library of China and the Reading Group held a dialogue salon on the "Cross-Millennium Intersection of Oracle and Online Literature". Zhao Aixue, head of the Jinshi Group and deputy research librarian of the National Library of China' Ancient Books Library, and "Xiao He 2", a platinum writer of the Reading Group, discussed the flow of words and stories.
Zhao Aixue believes that the collision of ancient characters with online literature more than three thousand years later, and the collision has produced a satisfactory spark, which is gratifying, "We hope that the ancient characters containing the wisdom of the ancestors can go to the public in a vivid and interesting way." The Internet has provided various possibilities for the spread of oracle bone culture, and online literature is one of them. ”
As a representative of online literary writers, "Xiao and 2" also said that the combination of oracle bones and online novels is a collision and exchange between ancient characters and modern literature, "The Chinese civilization described by oracle bones has been passed down to today, and carrying forward the excellent traditional culture represented by oracle bones is an important topic that experts, scholars, literary creators and ordinary people should pay attention to at present." ”
The reporter learned that "The Widow and 2" created a short story "The Beginning of Home" for the "Oracle Promotion Public Welfare Project". This story is inspired by the oracle bone "home", combined with the content of the "four winds" oracle bone, so that the wind and wind gods in the four directions of the east, west, south and north are reproduced in the network text.
"Telling the Chinese stories of each era well is the spiritual coordinates of online literature in cultural inheritance", Yang Chen, vice president and editor-in-chief of Reading Group, said that he hopes to use cultural innovation in the digital age to let more outstanding traditional culture enter the context of contemporary young people with new faces.
It is understood that there have been many masterpieces in contemporary online literature that explore the innovative expression of traditional culture, not only emerging a number of important categories such as history, martial arts, xianxia, and fantasy, but also innovative attempts to integrate traditional cultural elements such as embroidery, traditional Chinese medicine, tea ceremony, ceramic techniques, and antique restoration into good stories. The "Oracle Promotion Public Welfare Project" will once again expand the creative space of online literature, so that tradition and popularity can be integrated and coexist, and more outstanding works with vitality and cultural appeal will be stimulated.
