5 minutes to watch a movie, a series of documentaries in half an hour, full of mouths "support q", "666", "a perfect son", "a whole love", and only know that Li Bai is the "assassin" in the game...
Recently, a video titled "Criticized by CCTV, Extracting Young People's "Addicted Behavior": We Are Being Cultural Poor" has hit the hot list on Bilibili.
In the comment section, netizens had a heated discussion on the term "cultural poor", and even digital up owners made videos to respond.
Soon, the original video up owner said in the comment section that he had encountered a personal attack and changed the video title "We are becoming cultural poor" to "terrible electronic bottles".
"Electronic Bottle" Why is "electronic Bottle" terrible
"Please note that this woman is called Xiaomei, this man is called Xiaoshuai, one day..."
In the world of short video movie explanation, explaining the plot is the king. The producers changed the name of the heroine to Xiaomei, the supporting actress was Cuihua, and the male protagonist was Xiaoshuai. If she was a little stronger, she would be Dazhuang, and she would call her "Karami" and "Sang Biao" named the villain.
It can be said that short video movie commentary has formed a highly mature production line. No matter what kind of film, the same explanation method can be applied to interpret complex film and television into two or three things about Xiaomei and Xiaoshuai. The producers will also intercept the most exciting clips as gimmicks and instill fragmented things into the audience's minds in a short and fast form.
However, it is difficult to impress people with a simple and simple impression. After watching a movie in 5 minutes, it seems to enrich my viewing library, but in fact the audience only understands the plot outline, which makes the brain temporarily stimulate. In two or three days, this income will disappear, and only "Little Beauty and Little Handsome" will remain in my mind. Those classic works worth watching repeatedly will be buried under this simple and crude routine, becoming ordinary and exciting films in assembly line video commentary.
"Little Beauty and Big Brave" type movie interpretation touches people's instant satisfaction with fragmented pursuit. People who are trapped in it are like guinea pigs in electric shock experiments, who can give up their domination of time and self for a moment of excitement. Some netizens posted a message saying: "Watch a few stories about Xiaomei and Dazhuang on Douyin , and have lost the ability to appreciate movies that last more than an hour." Short videos are continuing to reduce people's concentration and self-control.
, a fragmented and superficial video interpretation, includes not only film and television works, but also large masterpieces and more professional scientific knowledge. Many viewers have a strong desire for knowledge, but due to insufficient time and energy and excessive threshold for some knowledge and technology, they choose to use short video popular science as a channel for satisfaction and venting.
Some netizens said: "If the names of people in "Hundred Years of Solitude" can be changed to Dazhuang, Xiaoshuai and Xiaomei, and you can complete three copies in a month."
However, the production form and dissemination mechanism of short videos determine its superficiality, and fragmented knowledge is often accompanied by out of context. It is difficult for ordinary audiences to remove false and preserve the truth from unfamiliar knowledge. They seem to be learning, but in fact they are being instilled. Once people get used to being fed knowledge, they will gradually lose the motivation and ability to actively explore and think, become abstract, extreme, follow the crowd, and eventually control the use of information by those who are arbitrarily.
And because these short videos are very simple and easy to understand and do not require the audience to think about themselves, they often have a large audience. With the support of traffic, the content output in the market is becoming increasingly convergent, not only squeezing the living space of excellent content producers, but also continuing to strengthen the information cocoon where the audience is located. The fragmented information compressed by
is also affecting people's thinking habits and language expression methods. Classic literature has been forgotten, and Internet terms are filled with people's social life. People's vocabulary is deteriorating, and their language is becoming increasingly scarce. Even if a long sentence is seriously replied, it will give people a sense of constant seriousness, which is considered to be questioning and criticizing.
"Cultural Poor" hurts who
When the up owner posted this phenomenon of video comments, netizens quarreled in the comment area.Many netizens expressed dissatisfaction with the word "cultural poor".
Some people believe that the up owner has a sense of superiority and preaching sense, and is evaluating others at will, which is "dads from all over the place".
Someone felt "wronged". They said that workers have to go to work every day and do not have time to read in-depth. When he was retorted, "What are you talking about? You can turn on the settings of your phone, see the cumulative usage time of your short video applications, and then ask yourself if you really don't have time?" Someone said, "It's not a matter of time, but a lack of energy. If you are tired for a day, you need entertainment and entertainment. Why are you so unbearable?"
There are also commentators who are speaking up for the short video commentary. "Electronic bottles are also a choice of the times. We are now in an era of information explosion and we are exposed to too much information. We can treat short video commentary as a "simple description". He helped me cut out the highlights of this book and this movie. If I really like it, I will look for the original work. If I find it was unfinished in the end, it would not waste too much time."
Another group of people believe that "culture" is a niche thing, and there is nothing that ordinary people who love to watch short videos and speak online terms can be criticized.
Finally, the up owner commented:
"Poster" netizen "Poster" told reporters that after watching this video, he was a little angry at first, but later found that he was actually angry. "From the video content, what the up owner said is still very pertinent. Watching short video movie commentary is personal freedom, but for most people who cannot be self-disciplined and self-reflective, the 'electronic bottle' is a breeding ground for self-indulgence. I also have to reflect on myself." But he does not think that online terms are a problem, "This is just a social trend, and every era will have a language expression that the public likes." "Yiyi", who graduated from
, said that what will be stinged by this video is actually the "cultural middle class" in the social sense like her, because the real "cultural poor" does not care whether they have culture or not. "The 'Cultural Middle School' believes that they are different from people who do not study or study at all. But they are actually just a group of people who passively absorb culture under the promotion of society, and do not have the motivation to actively learn and think. However, in the social environment, they are also regarded as cultural people."
The white-collar "prince" who works hard in the city is very disgusted with the label of "cultural poor" and does not like the so-called "cultural people" showing off their culture. "I can watch short videos and film commentary after work, but I prefer the in-depth and detailed explanation, which can be used as a supplement after watching the movie," but he also joked that although it is not "electronic pickled vegetables", he only likes semi-finished products like "pre-made dishes".
What exactly is the problem
Whether people are becoming "cultural poor", this word can trigger discussions among so many netizens, which itself shows that this is a problem.
Indeed, people live in real life, and there will be obstacles in various aspects such as time and energy that prevent us from calming down and enriching ourselves. But can watching short videos really relieve the fatigue of life?
When we first started to watch short videos, we seemed to be comforted and relaxed, but once we spent a long time, we would develop a sense of dependence that we could not stop, wasting a lot of time that we could rest on short videos, and we became more and more tired as we brushed.
Moreover, many short videos will superimpose rhythmic background music and stimulating images to stimulate the people's brain. When brushing these things, it seems to be relaxing and reaping happiness, but in fact, all you get is a short-term stimulation to the brain.
After being exposed to something more irritating, people will naturally not want to look at relatively boring things. Over the long run, the brain's happiness threshold is raised, and the two completely different emotions, such as upper and disgust, will continue to cycle and repeat, causing people to gradually fall into emptiness.
has long been subject to fragmentation and superficial content, and it will be difficult for people to concentrate, let alone in-depth work, deep learning and deep thinking. In this way, we will undoubtedly become culturally and ideologically poor.
It is undeniable that short video commentary, online articles, and online terms have their meaning. It is not a problem to look at these things, the problem is to only look at these contents. Netizen "Man wants to eat meat by step" said: "My job is related to books and texts. I keep reading during work hours and always come into contact with new media when I get off work hours. I watch short videos and long videos, and games and online articles. I can express it in rigorous and even literary languages, and I can also play with memes with people in various online languages."
is like people cannot just eat pickled vegetables, not fresh fruits and vegetables and staple foods. Only by maintaining in-depth reading can they have the ability to not be eroded by short, flat and fast content, and can control them easily.
: Regarding the comments issued by netizens that "culture has always been a matter of a small number of people, from ancient times to the present", "Yiyi" refuted "Ancient people did not have compulsory education."
People who will be stinged by the word "cultural poor" must be people who have aspirations for cultural life. Then you cannot choose to fall with peace of mind.
