爽文

/shuǎng wén/

释义 DEFINITION

在网络文学界,爽文就像精神辣条——明知没营养但根本停不下来。这类小说主打情绪价值MAX,核心要素包括:

  • 主角开局送外挂,『系统已绑定』是标准问候语
  • 反派必须降智,打脸必须啪啪响
  • 每章结尾必留钩子,让人熬夜追更像中毒

常见变体有穿越爽、重生爽、签到爽,最近还流行『反向带娃爽文』(主角靠熊孩子反向操作走上人生巅峰)。当代社畜评价:『看爽文就像给大脑做马杀鸡』,毕竟现实里当孙子,小说里当祖宗才平衡。

词源故事 ETYMOLOGY

要追溯爽文发家史,得回到2003年起点中文网的VIP付费制度。当时有个不成文公式:更新速度×爽点密度=作者月收入。随着移动阅读爆发,这种多巴胺驱动型创作彻底进化——2015年《重生之都市修仙》日均更新1.5万字,堪称文学界的富士康。

社会学家发现,爽文爆红与『憋屈经济』正相关。当996成为福报,租房押金难退,读者急需『云爽感补偿机制』。典型案例如《龙王赘婿》系列,主角从受气女婿到掌控全球经济,完美满足打工人终极YY。

近年出现套路爽文,比如主角主动求虐:『别给我无敌开局!我要体验被虐的快乐!』 这届读者已经把爽点阈值刷到了新高度。

例句:
『你这方案改得比爽文还离谱——主角(甲方)已经第8次推翻系统(我们)的设定了!』
『地铁上那个西装大哥,手机屏幕里总裁文弹幕厚得能防弹』

synonym: Power Fantasy

DEFINITION

In Chinese webnovel culture, Power Fantasy is the literary equivalent of deep-fried Oreos—deliciously addictive but zero nutritional value. Key characteristics include:

  • Protagonists getting cheat codes before the title screen loads
  • Villains with IQ points lower than room temperature
  • Chapters ending with cliffhangers that turn readers into nocturnal creatures

Modern variations range from 『Transmigration Tropes』 to 『System-assisted Domination』. Office workers swear by these stories as 『mental Red Bull』—because who doesn't want to live vicariously as an OP protagonist after a day of corporate servitude?

ETYMOLOGY

The origin story of Shuang Wen reads like its own power fantasy. It all started with Qidian's 2003 VIP subscription model, where authors discovered the golden equation: daily word count × wish-fulfillment moments = cold hard cash. By 2016, webnovel platforms were churning out chapters faster than breaking news—one legendary author updated 50k words during Spring Festival, essentially inventing literary dim sum.

Sociologists note its rise parallels China's 『Frustration Economy』. As urban millennials juggle soul-crushing jobs and insane housing costs, these novels became emotional credit cards—borrow endorphins now, deal with reality later. Take 『The Dragon King Son-in-Law』 series: underdog protagonists achieving god-tier success, basically CareerBuilder on literary steroids.

Now we've got meta power fantasies where protagonists beg for nerfs: 『No OP skills! I crave authentic failure!』—proof that even escapism needs plot twists.

Example sentences:
『My boss' demands make shuangwen plotlines look realistic』
『Dude in the subway reading CEO novels so hard, his phone's overheating』
