"Ever since microblogging turned out, If you write a love letter more than 140 words, you are unable to go! Who is available to see you Spring and Autumn?"

A netizen of emotion, a reflection of microblogging in the present popularity.

As a new media, the past two years the development of micro-Bo described as "rapidly." China Internet Network Information Center recently released the "28th China Internet Development Statistics Report" shows that the first half of 2011, China's microblogging users from 63.11 million the number of rapid growth to 1.95 million, up 208.9 percent increase in six months.

Microblogging wind, not blowing the "micro" concept of popularity, it spawned a micro fiction, micro film, micro-video and other new things. On the one hand, a few words does not prevent the completion of a novel micro-shaping the character and emotional expression, 90-second duration can be interpreted as a compact plot of the film story; the other hand, mobile phones, electronic paper and other reading devices, allow people to take full advantage of all time "debris", micro fiction, micro film just in the "body" fit people on the real-time consumer demand.

Peking University professor Zhang Ming, believes that the fast pace of modern life and diversity, gave birth to the fragmentation of free time, "not long to see the film, you can see the micro-film; long novel's worth, you can see the micro-fiction. "

This year, the number of sites organized by micro-fiction contest, micro-film festival, indeed inspire netizens original enthusiasm. It was thus that the expansion of the extent of micro-fiction can not be stopped, it will change to some extent, our literature "map."

But there point of view, micro fiction, micro films only cater to the "micro" era of the public under the impetuous heart. Some publishers who predicted an uncertain future micro-fiction, traditional literature does not have any impact and influence, can not even call it literature. Film and television industry has no shortage of criticism of the micro-film voice, saying nothing but another form of advertising or "trailers."

"Throughout the course of development literature, the evolution of every mode of transmission, would inevitably lead to the stylistic evolution of the network development of the network literature, the emergence of another blog network derived from literary blog, and now, microblogging and the emergence and development of micro- Bo literature began to appear as a new style. "Zhang Ming said that although the word limit and let the ideological content of micro-fiction has been lacking, its growth and development may not be mature, but as a literary history of the development of a new form of micro-fiction unique style and intrinsic quality of the text may be made to promote literature and new developments.

However, in view of some, the sense of micro-fiction is not entirely a new thing. Rather, it is the short story of a "variety" is the Internet age in the context of the return of the beauty of Chinese characters. 140 word limit, forcing the author tempered language, remove the complex adjectives, adverbs, words so simple and clean, there is tension. As A Tolstoy said: "Little fiction writer is the best training school."

For now the "old boy" and set off a wave of micro-films, some industry insiders believe that micro-film break through the traditional film "superior" attitude, to focus more on the little people, the fate of a small, small details, or fictitious " suspense "," spectacle "and so on.

Tsinghua University School of Journalism and Communication, Communication Research Center Film Professor Yin Hong pointed out that the micro-film has its own unique ideas and expression, belongs to a new form of fiction, can be a fictional small fragment, a small fictional situations or stories, much more life, more light comedy, is more suitable for people to use fragments of time to watch.

"Micro-film, breaking the professional film production of 'threshold', and its development will show the trend of diversity. It can be carefully crafted by a professional team, the formation of a fixed business model, it can be an amateur who does not seek income from entertainment from the music, may become the standard platform for professionals to promote themselves, to help young directors to the big screen. "Yin believes that, with the technical conditions and market demand for micro-film will not be short-lived, and will serve as a grass-roots and elite, Amateur and professional co-existence of diverse art forms, access to a wide range of sustainable development.

No matter how the parties view, micro fiction, micro-film can healthy and sustainable development, to avoid the flash in the pan, the key lies in whether the performance in a limited space really gives a reading, viewing pleasure, reflect current social phenomena, left to the people memorable space, tremor audience's mind. This is where the intention of literary and artistic creation.
