Sustainable Development of Internet Literature in the Era of Games and Animation:Challenges and Opportunities

The rapid development of Internet literature not only made itself the source of information about animation and the gaming industry,but also boosted the creation of super writers who are now establishing themselves as IP(intellectual property)producers and providers.Rather than creating literary classics,these writers prefer producing commercial novels targeted at a certain group of readers.Meanwhile,the structure of their works tends to cater to the preferences of online games and animation,with the narrative and characters in the novel adjusting accordingly.These changes have enhanced the influence of Internet literature.But an excessive emphasis on IP gradually converts the novels into scripts for games with highly stereotyped content and structure.Fastpaced writing also renders their works with a lack of polish,including such serious problems as mismatched plots and repetitive narratives.Therefore,Internet literature is in urgent need of positive guidance,as its development will be stalled due to the excessive emphasis on IP.

Research on the Derivative Development of Super IP in Journey to the West (西游记)

This paper is devoted to excavating the mode of production of the culture of Journey to the West-taking the creators of derivative works of Journey to the West as the main body,and from their free and conscious expression in the process of creation,to find out the path of works’development that conforms to the law of social aesthetics and creation.In the aspect of spiritual expression of the works,the freedom of the artist is reflected in the art producers’emotions,concepts,tastes,and accomplishment in the works,which is related to the artist’s life background,experience,and aesthetics:Wan Laiming(万籁鸣)’s classic national animation,Princess Iron Fan(铁扇公主),is adapted from the version of hundred times of Journey to the West.In addition to the necessary secondary creation in the text and presentation,the theme expression has also been updated and adjusted according to the social background and the author’s emotion;in the text expression of the works,the freedom of the artist is shown in the uniqueness of the work-the form and content of the works come from experience and are different from experience.The idea of building Marvel Cinematic Universe(MCU,漫威电影宇宙)is similar to the framework of“Core Task+Unit Stories”in Journey to the West;A lot of high-quality films and animations such as The Forbidden Kingdom(功夫之王),Panda do Kung Fu(功夫熊猫)and Jackie Chan Adventures(成龙历险记)used western context and culture to create cross-cultural works,but retained unique oriental corpus and images,forming the works’unique style and label.Artists’ability and experience enable them to be acutely aware of the law of artistic creation;they compare and think about different cultural works,and then apply the law to the secondary creation.The artist’s self-consciousness comes from the appreciator’s degree of acceptance of the works;it is reflected in the creator’s reasonable adjustment to the works due to the market,policy,and appreciator’s habits and tastes.The image of Sun Wukong(孙悟空)in the anime film Monkey Kin:Hero Is Back(大圣归来)-a hero of rebirth-has refreshed the audience.From the perspective of cultural studies,this is a negotiated secondary creation of Sun Wukong’s image in Journey to the West based on the interpretation psychology of the audience.In short,to analyze and summarize the ideation of various derivative works is to study the creative laws shared by artists,so as to provide more experience and reference for subsequent creation.

Renaissance of Chinese Culture and Prosperity of the World of Arts

Chinese culture is characterized by the trinity of China:the tradition of Tao,the concept of harmony and unity,and the teaching of the code of ethics.It is also argued that artistic creation should be guided by three rationales:Artists should have a proactive spirit;artists should diligently promote global harmony;among different civilizations,artists should have a strong sense of mission,thinking of human value and dignity as the most important component of our lives.

Towards Semiotics of Art in Record of Music

Record of Music,a classic in traditional Chinese art theories,has established an aesthetic model of"Wu gan",which offers a unique and important perspective for how feelings are sparked by things and artistic creations come into being thereafter.Being re-examined in the context of Peircean semiotics,such a model reveals the mechanism of feeling and meaning generation of artistic semiosis,and could,therefore,provide an alternative interpretation of the interpretative semiotics initiated by Charles S.Peirce.
