黑科技

/hēi kē jì/
释义 DEFINITION

黑科技原指动漫作品中超越现实规则的神秘技术,现多用于以下场景:

  1. 突破性技术:指现实中具有颠覆性、远超当前科技水平的产品或技术(如折叠屏手机刚问世时)
  2. 非常规操作:通过特殊技巧实现看似不可能的效果(如用Excel作画)
  3. 夸张表达:网友对普通技术成果的幽默化称赞

当前互联网语境下,约80%的使用场景属于第三种——用夸张手法表达对创新的惊叹,常见于数码圈和游戏社区。

词源故事 ETYMOLOGY

这个词汇的演变堪称一部互联网文化简史:

2003-2008 萌芽期:源自日本轻小说《全金属狂潮》中「黑科技」的汉化翻译,特指作品中超越现实的神秘技术。当时仅在ACG小众圈层传播。

2012-2015 破圈期:小米手机营销团队创造性将其用于新品宣传(如「小米黑科技发布会」),使该词完成从二次元到三次元的「转生」。

2016-2018 泛化期:直播平台主播开始滥用该词形容任何新奇事物(从手机快充到方便面新吃法),词义逐渐稀释。

2019至今 解构期:年轻网民开始反向使用,用「这黑科技我奶奶都会」等表达消解其严肃性,形成独特的互联网幽默范式。

典型用例
• 正经向:「我国量子计算机取得突破,这才是真黑科技!」
• 戏谑向:「用微波炉烤出脆皮五花肉——当代大学生的黑科技实践」

synonym: Black Tech

DEFINITION

Black Tech (Hēi Kējì) originally described supernatural technologies in anime, but has evolved into three modern meanings:

  1. Groundbreaking Innovation: Real-world technologies that defy current scientific understanding (e.g., early foldable smartphones)
  2. Unconventional Hacks: Creative techniques achieving seemingly impossible results (like creating art in Excel)
  3. Humorous Praise: Exaggerated compliment for ordinary tech achievements

In current Chinese internet culture, about 80% of usage falls into the third category – a playful way to express amazement, particularly popular in tech forums and gaming communities.

ETYMOLOGY

The evolution of Hēi Kējì mirrors Chinese internet culture:

2003-2008 Origin: Translated from Japanese light novel Full Metal Panic! where it described fictional super-technologies. Initially confined to ACG (Anime, Comic, Game) subcultures.

2012-2015 Mainstream Breakthrough: Xiaomi's marketing team repurposed the term for smartphone launches (e.g., "Xiaomi Black Tech Conference"), bridging otaku culture and mainstream tech.

2016-2018 Semantic Expansion: Live-streamers overused the term to describe anything novel – from fast-charging tech to instant noodle hacks – causing meaning dilution.

2019-Present Deconstruction Era: Netizens ironically apply it to mundane innovations ("My grandma could master this 'black tech'"), creating a unique satirical meme format.

Typical Usage:
• Serious: "China's quantum computing breakthrough – this is real black tech!"
• Satirical: "Using microwave to make crispy pork belly – college students' black tech revolution"
