Chapter 1040 NO.164: Between fanaticism and rationality

In the difficulty classification of the creative field, fan creation has always been regarded as the easiest choice, because it takes a shortcut to creation and steps on the ladder called 'prototype'.

Ready-made world view, ready-made characters, ready-made plot conflicts, ready-made fan audience, etc...

Even if it is not such a complete fan, but only accounts for one or two factors, it is still a successful trick, and will naturally be looked down upon by more original authors in the creative field.

But creation itself is still a profound field, and even the so-called simplest choice does not mean that newcomers can confidently step into it.

After all, this circle can be very tolerant or very harsh.

Maybe someone will praise everything you write, or maybe someone will criticize it no matter how exquisite it is. Such feedback largely depends on the fandom of the original work, and these trends will also affect the direction of fan creation to a certain extent.

The so-called market selection is nothing more than this.

Just like how the horse racing girl police (double meaning) police, the output of strange documents still continues unabated year by year.

The extreme of competition reflects a kind of pathology. It is undeniable that those who can stand at the top always have deep desires.

Words have become the carrier of seven emotions and six desires, reflecting readers’ expectations and creators’ desires.

And there is also a specious and pathological extension between the so-called audiences and fans.

That pitiful profit is even less distributed to a group of producers, but everyone will still work together like that.

At this point, Omer actually knew the reason why the digital teacher gave him an exaggerated salute at that time.

A meeting, a passing, but also the courage to continue the next time.

Especially for physical fanfics, the two steps of painting and printing mean a much more troublesome cost than simple online dissemination, because there are more realistic corrections and more sales plans, and you want to do it. Even better, there will be additional publicity.

Cases surrounding Jockey Girls appear every year, and various rumors often surround Jockey Girls competitions. Even in recent games, Yan Yi itself has been increasing year by year in the final stage - these will become The material for the creation of strange books even allows it to add a sentence at the end: The above is adapted from real events.

The so-called fan fiction itself is a kind of encounter.

Therefore, the horse girl cannot eradicate the strange document.

This is exactly how the trend is becoming more and more biased.

Because the soil is here.

That's right, although it seemed like it was just a moment of hot-headedness, in fact she did have a reason for doing this, but such a reason was probably impossible to explain to Qi Groove.

The members gathered even more because of this.

But they are sold very cheaply.

It’s not that I want to deny reality, but that I want to maintain something more precious and shining.

And highly respected.

But there are always people who resist.

Resisting strange documents, resisting the increasingly radical creative environment, and resisting the equally radical competitive environment.

The Ali Digital fan club was formed precisely because of this.

Put the fanzines that have been put into all kinds of efforts on the table, waiting for buyers who can appreciate them.

When the environment is like this, it will become a general trend. Even if the core - the so-called desire itself - is different, people will find what they want to see.

It’s also difficult to tell other people, so-called outsiders.

To put it simply, she had no other choice but to hold on to Umastar, the driftwood.

Because the creative style of Ali Digital and its clubs, or the philosophy she pursues, is a depiction of life.

By outlining the emotions and details that can only be seen by onlookers, it creates a warmth and touch that the parties involved are unaware of.

Just like being in a house of orchids and not smelling its fragrance for a long time, depicting the 'fragrance' is what they/they pursue.

Those beautiful things, those shining things, often seem invisible, but in the eyes of beings like Ali Digital, they show such a strong sense of existence.

Extremely clear and vivid.

So I want to keep it.

That moment of emotion can be summed up in one word as 'respect', but how many people have stepped into that field from time to time?

Even the person involved is completely unaware of the feeling, and even gradually forgets it. How many people can quantify it and give it an image?

Perhaps there are too many people who have eyes to appreciate beauty.

But how many people can interpret that beauty in words and pictures?

This brings us back to the original topic.

Fan creation is the lowest creative threshold.

But there are only a few people who can truly make people feel moved, who can make the protagonist of the story remember it, and who can even express gratitude - in Digital Ali's mind, even including herself.

At this time, she would inevitably admit in a cautious and humble manner that her contacts were not wide enough and she had not been able to meet more extraordinary and touching teachers and wives, but the reality clearly left her little time.

It's not difficult to imagine her mental state at this time, and it's hard to say whether her 'suspicious' behavior early in the morning was due to psychological control or an overflow of her nature.

And it was also at this time that Omer Linton appeared in front of her and evoked her memory with a few words that made her familiar and astonished, or rather...

【Umastar】

It can already become the first of 108 stars.

Of course, I am talking about nicknames, so experience is not necessary.

With such violent ecstasy, it is difficult not to realize that this may be the only opportunity in this life (cross out) this dead line.

Because after all, Umastar is the same Stand (x) as her.

He is even better than her in grasping and expressing the beauty of life and the sparkle of spirit. Ally Digital was once fascinated by Teacher Xing's grasp of the degree of "shine", because she herself was often unable to empathize with more Jockey Girl fans due to the deep fan filter.

To be more precise, she is not able to grasp the appreciation angle of moderate fans and light fans.

In other words, the beautiful things she chooses often fail to resonate with more fans.

——This essence stems from the fact that the little girl from Ali Digital is really too deep, but she has not been able to regain the consciousness of a normal person.

This symptom often occurs in severely mentally ill patients who cannot distinguish between reality and fantasy.

Certain extreme fans who have been involved in criminal cases will have similar symptoms.

To be honest, this needs to be corrected.

Therefore, Umastar once gave the other party a serious suggestion: observe more people around you, ordinary people, and find the mentality of ordinary people.

The girl's eyes could see a lot of beauty, but she didn't know which section she should change to make more people like it.

But it's actually a very simple thing.

As long as you take on the perspective of more people, figure out the differences between different fans, and figure out where their appreciation range lies.

By clarifying the market demand, there will naturally be better and greater returns.

As long as it can do this, it will also help Ali Digital disguise its identity as an otaku.

Because the essence of all this lies in 'display', which is a combination of 'revealing' and 'concealing'.

This can be applied to all aspects of life, even in the way of being a person.

Omer Linton and Zhenji Ling are exactly a group of teachers and students in this way.

But obviously, digital teachers are still quite lacking in this aspect.

Just her excessive attitude from humility to abjection makes her life very worrying.

It is right to be grateful for all the touches, but not all gratitude can be treated kindly.

Of course, you can also say that you are grateful and do not expect to receive good treatment from it, and that you are just expressing your feelings.

But an overly humble attitude itself is not good for life, even if you are on a campus built by another comrade who "wants to protect something more precious and shining."

"It's rare! I can meet Trainer Linton once."

"Indeed, it seems that I haven't seen you patrolling around the training ground for a while, Mr. Chairman."

Yayoi Akikawa, the chairman of the Chuo Teresin School whom she had not seen for a while, was a blond woman who resisted the aggressive competitive environment and tried to make amends, striving to make the school spirit of Chuo Teresin positive.

Still appearing as that little young girl, wearing her little hat, and carrying her folding fan that always reflects new text, not like a technological projection, but more like a source of energy processing.

And, of course, the kitten resting on the hat with amazing balance.

"Meow."

At this moment, it was making a meowing sound, as if to say hello to Omo.

Regardless of whether it was true or not, Homais nodded slightly at it, and then saw the hat swaying and the cat almost falling off.

"Don't say anything! I've been really busy lately!"

The word 'Don't say anything' is also written on the open fan. The chairman is always so high-spirited, as if he is giving a speech all the time: "Listen to the reins, you should have the same feeling!"

"It's hard to disagree..." Omo, whose eyes fell back on the text in front of him, replied. Even if such a big shot was around, it would not prevent him from continuing to fight for Ellie Digital.

This is also the specialty of second-generation mercenaries.

"But now, are you done with your work?"

"Take a break! We have to wait until a few games in the second half of the month!"

"It's really hard work." Omer pondered for a while, looking for a breakthrough in the next step of creation while looking at the past competition deeds of several acquaintances.

Rather than making up imaginary love, interacting with the clear water that has only been tasted briefly, describing competition and chasing dreams are the grand avenues that can resonate with the most fans. Unfortunately, even this aspect of today's creations has begun to become awkward.

A single love, hope, and dream is already a goal that too many people can’t achieve.

And the chairman didn't care about his 'discourtesy' of not looking at others when he spoke. He just waved his fan and said:

"It's okay. I heard that Trainer Linton is also working hard to promote Jockey Girl. I really want other trainers to learn from you."

These words made Omer turn his head.

"I heard? Ah...have you met Ms. Junchuan?"

He did tell Junchuan Reins about this. After all, the gaze at the swimming pool became more and more dazzling in the morning, and he felt that he would soon cause trouble to Ms. Junchuan.

And reporting in advance can save you a lot of trouble and unnecessary anxiety.

"Exactly, how about giving me a copy when the time comes!"

"Of course," Omer said simply as it was not a subtle creation that would be difficult for acquaintances to know about. "I think the editor-in-chief will be so excited that he may burst into tears."

"Surprise, is that so?"

"Of course, please don't underestimate your status and achievements, Mr. Chairman."

The young man turned his head and treated her with the courtesy he should have had when they first met.

"To name the Shining Series, you are undoubtedly a well-deserved senior on the road to striving for that sparkle for racing girls."
