【聊了什么The What】
这一期节目里，两位从小看网文长大的主播马修和一闻终于有机会交流他们当年痴迷网文的故事。从男频到女频，唐家三少到水千丞，沧月到郭敬明，晋江到知乎，马修和一闻给严肃文学爱好者安蕤一点点科普网文的前世今生，最后安蕤才意识到她其实也看过不少网文，只不过是以纸质书的形式。
让我们没想到的是，当年专属于年轻人的 guilty pleasure 竟然一步步发展成了价值千亿的文化产业，原本的 txt 文件和文字中的人物变成了现在全球大火的电视剧和一线明星，我们的消费方式也从白嫖变成付费，单章购买变成付费订阅，结果又被互联网大厂带回免费阅读时代。到了今天，没有几个人能逃过网文的文化影响，网文不再是只配在被窝里看的小众爱好了，那它算不算完成了对严肃文学的复仇？
In this episode, Matthew and Yiwen finally got the chance to exchange their stories of webnovel obsession. We gave Anrui, a fan of serious literature, a crash course on the past and future of webnovels—genres, top authors, online platforms—only for Anrui to realize that she has, indeed, read webnovels too.
The development trajectory of webnovels has exceeded our wildest imagination. It grew from a guilty pleasure exclusive to young people to a cultural industry worth billions of dollars. What was once .txt files and the characters within them have now transformed into globally popular TV shows and A-list celebrities. Our consumption habits have also evolved from reading for free to paying, from single-chapter purchases to subscription models; now, big techs have brought us back to the era of free reading. Today, few can escape the cultural influence of webnovels. It’s no longer just a niche hobby—so has it, in a sense, taken its revenge on serious literature?
