"I'm probably tired, I'm so perfunctory back" "You see, I started drawing big cakes again, if I believe it, I'm afraid I'm going to cry and break my intestines" "If my brother has such an attitude, it is better to ignore my goodness directly, it seems that I am unreasonable to make trouble"...
Recently, some network phrases, two-creation videos, imitation videos, etc. that imitate Lin Daiyu's speaking tone in "Dream of the Red Chamber" have become popular, and these contents are called Lin Daiyu-style "crazy literature". From "Du Fu is very busy" to "Yuanfang, how do you see" and "Lu Xunyue", to playing bad world famous paintings, netizens continue to pursue freshness in a wave of terriers.
Keywords make stems
Detach from the character image
The definition of "crazy literature" on the Internet is "happy and practical style", and the role of "crazy" literature is: sending a large piece of crazy nonsense can be very decompressing, but also let the other party know that it is facing a "crazy person", it is best to give me caution not to be perfunctory. Knowing the use environment of the "crazy literature" on the Internet, I also know why a section of Internet language that imitates Lin Daiyu's tone of speech can become popular.
Put into the current language environment, these imitations of Lin Daiyu's words sound awkward, contrived, and nonsensical, but netizens are not concerned about these words themselves, but whether they can be integrated into this network trend phenomenon of throwing stems, connecting stems, and playing stems.
For example, in some short videos, netizens imitated Lin Daiyu's tone to scare her boyfriend: "On weekdays, everything I say is the wind in my ears, and I have never heard a word from me." How others say that you should throw away a garbage, faster than the holy will. ”
Some netizens imitated Lin Daiyu and ridiculed her mother, who only had a pet dog in her eyes: "Even if I am not tripped up by a younger brother, I am so ignorant of people."
Some netizens also used to ridicule the dialogue with the leader: "In this way, it is my mistake, not like the new colleagues, so young, so capable."
In fact, because Lin Daiyu is the most classic character image in "Dream of the Red Chamber", in the Internet pop culture, some of her languages have long been popular, such as "I alone have, or other sisters have", etc., will often appear in the chat of netizens. The character image of Lin Daiyu has been continuously interpreted and even deconstructed by netizens.
In this wave of network play terrier culture, Lin Daiyu's "crazy literature" was detached from Lin Daiyu's literary and artistic image at the beginning, but some keywords in Lin Daiyu's discourse were used and made into stems, such as "it is more or less", "it is also thanks to you", "it doesn't matter what you have to do", "in vain", etc. The Lin Daiyu-style "crazy literature" created by netizens is more yin and yang weird, aggrieved, and clever, and has nothing to do with the image of Lin Daiyu's sharp teeth, love to talk and laugh, and delicate and lovely in literary works.
Netizens who play these terriers may not have an understanding of the character of Lin Daiyu, or really need the discourse technique of "crazy literature", but they prefer to participate in this carnival of playing terriers and participate in the expression of collective emotions.
Online play terriers for novelty
But fleeting
In the ocean of the Internet, every once in a while, there will be a variety of literary classics, historical celebrities, famous writers, classic art, etc. To play with terrier carnivals, these terrier carnivals themselves are part of the era of networked entertainment, and their existence is for games, entertainment, spoofs and jokes.
In 2012, a "Du Fu is very busy" spoof entertainment was popular on the Internet, and the image of Du Fu in the language textbooks who worried about the country and the people was spoofed by netizens as a sniper, a water delivery worker, a muscle man, a watermelon stall owner, etc., which together constituted a network scene of "Du Fu is very busy".
Ten years before the popularity of online social media, netizens collectively ridiculed Du Fu, deconstructing and dislocating the authoritative image of ancient celebrities, which made many netizens feel fresh and funny, and also surprised and unacceptable to many people in the academic circles. At that time, many commentators believed that this internet popular phenomenon was incredible and had no bottom line, reflecting the loss of the spiritual world of modern people.
In addition to criticism, more people reflect on this phenomenon of network spoofing, and some people think that it is necessary to relax against this phenomenon, and criticism should not be put on the line, because the new era and new interpretation are also an innovation.
After "Du Fu is very busy", netizens have not stopped deconstructing and joking about mainstream cultural content, and mainstream cultural groups have gradually seen this phenomenon. A few years ago, everyone played "Bao Zheng is very busy" and "Yuanfang, how do you see" and other terriers, but also had a lot of fun.
In 2019, with the popularity of short video platforms, chicken soup texts and didactic texts began to become popular, and there is a popular phenomenon on the Internet that famous quotes are flying all over the sky, and the false quotes of Zhang Ailing, Mo Yan, Bai Yansong and others have been spread in many places, and Mo Yan and Bai Yansong have also come out to "fight counterfeiting" and deny that they have said those "beautiful quotes". In the trend of famous sayings flying all over the world, "Lu Xun said" and "Lu Xun Yue" became a kind of playing phenomenon, and many words were installed on Lu Xun's head, such as: "Young people, eat more vegetables, stay up late" "Poor in itself, tossing right becomes rich, tossing is not right, big deal or poor" "At a certain age, you must throw away four things: meaningless liquor bureau, people who don't love you, relatives who look down on you, and friends who are hypocritical."
In the context of Internet entertainment carnival, Lu Xun has the titles of "the man most feared by Chinese middle school students", "the first terrier king in Asia", and "the originator of famous online sayings".
From "Du Fu is very busy" to "Lu Xun said" to Lin Daiyu's "crazy literature", it is all a prank and joke of internet popular culture on serious culture. Wave after wave of playing terrier boom shows that one of the characteristics of online popular culture is forever carnival, deconstruction and spoofing, which advocates entertainment, non-mainstream, and dissipation of meaning, and netizens vent their emotions and find social resonance in throwing stems and connecting stems. The tide of online play terriers may create a "pseudo-context" with coarse elements, but now playing terriers without crossing the line and touching the bottom line, and will no longer be seriously criticized for the loss of the humanistic spirit and the pollution of social atmosphere, everyone knows that this kind of entertainment game pursues novelty and attractiveness, but it will be fleeting.
