How Did the “Chinese Koi” Come into Being? Third Cultures in Real and Virtual Space

现代锦鲤(Koi)的发源地为日本新泻县的二十村乡,是文化复合体的表现。随着日本全球化战略的推行,锦鲤文化从地方民俗文化被建构为日本国家传统文化,并向海外传播。当全球化的锦鲤文化流入中国时,与中国传统的鲤鱼吉祥文化相互融合,形成了独具中国特色的"第三种文化",即"中国锦鲤"文化。中国锦鲤文化不断发展变异,日益呈现出多样化的格局,在互联网的冲击下出现了"中国锦鲤""网络迷因"的衍生物。伴随着移动支付技术向全球扩展,中国锦鲤或将形成"第三种文化之第三种文化"。

Modern Koi,originating in Nijumurago of Japan’s Niigata Prefecture,is a manifestation of a cultural complex.With the implementation of Japan’s globalization strategy,the Koi culture has been elevated from a local folk culture to a Japanese national culture and disseminated overseas.When the globalized Koi culture entered China,it merged with the traditional Chinese auspicious Carp culture and became one of the 'third cultures'with Chinese characteristics,namely,the'Chinese koi'culture.As one of the'third cultures',the Chinese Koi culture continued to evolve and diversify.Under the impact of the Internet,derivatives such as Chinese Koi Memes emerged,which will probably generate'the third type of third cultures'as mobile payment technologies expand globally.
