Recently, a number of illustrations of textbooks published by the primary school people's education edition have become the "nail households" of the microblog hot list. First, some parents found something wrong with the illustrations in the textbook and posted them on social media. Then more and more netizens saw these illustrations, and their criticism of the "hot eyes" content gradually intensified.
Even without any artistic edification, people can see at a glance that the characters above are not only wearing a template of "godless eyes + strange expression", but also spitting out their cute little tongues without any reason.
As the netizens denounced, "the rectification of toxic teaching materials can not avoid accountability" was officially posted on the microblog for hot search.
Obviously, we all don't hope that in the arduous and long-term quality education, parents have racked their brains to prevent thousands of things, but they have finally been magically defeated by the textbooks in their children's schoolbags.
At the other end of the Internet, a similar discussion about textbooks surfaced.
Some netizens found high-quality textbook roles in the Japanese English textbook new crown. They not only include diverse nationalities, which is in line with the public's aesthetics, but also allow people to see different personality settings from the expressions and gestures of each character.
The title page of the new crown textbook even has a special character introduction. In addition to the boy who wants to be an inventor and the classic girl of the thick eyebrow sports department, we can also see a variety of interesting "foreign" people - Indian boys who want to be doctors, American boys who want to be boxers, and Australian girls who dream of traveling around the world
Among the many roles, Li Jing, a girl from China, soon entered the vision of netizens. With the introduction of netizens of "Li Jing pushes people alone", we know more and more about Li Jing. For example, she has a very pleasant setting "she wants to become an idol and show her skills on the world stage".
In order to show that Li Jing likes animation in her personal design, the illustration in the textbook specially arranges something that other students do not have - a very "two-dimensional" cartoon doll pendant for Li Jing's schoolbag.
Li Jing's sweat on the "road to idols" is also shown through lovely illustrations, which not only makes the whole character stand up in an instant, but also greatly increases Li Jing's popularity.
Even textbook publishers understand the charm of their roles, and have specially produced a series of expression packs for social software line. Among them, Li Jing's GIF expression makes people see that they can't help playing with the rotten stem "cute drop pinch".
Because this lovable and loving Li Jing is really very likable. The highly efficient microblog painters soon started their secondary creation of Li Jing, such as "Li Jing at the same table".

Another example is the "black long straight" floating freely. It seems that GALGAME can be directly used to draw figures. It has a high degree of completion and is full of small details.

Even, some netizens have formed a pair of CPS between Li Jing and Tanaka, a classmate in the textbook, and attached a sentence that is not only in line with the personal design but also classic: "easily win the cherry blossom girl, because I am XXXX".

A name appearing in the textbook may help you to understand why Li Jing is so likable. Even in a few days, she has added so much second innovation content - Jixing Tailang.
That's right. Li Jing's character setting in the textbook is one of the producers of the "love with you" series, who created three immortal goddesses in the love game world, Kao Aihua, Xiaozao kawawa Linzi and sister AKI Ningning. Keixing Tailang, a Japanese veteran painter who was given the nickname of "father-in-law" by the players.
Now, do you understand why you can see such a sense of familiarity from the eyebrows and eyes of Tanaka, the character in the textbook? This may be the characteristic of Ji Xing Tai Lang's works, that is, "seeing the eyebrows and eyes knows the author".
In fact, it is not an example that a role like Li Jing can easily gain popularity in social media in Japanese textbooks. A few years ago, Ellen Baker, an English teacher who triggered a creative boom in Japan and China, was the most obvious example.

Ellen Baker, known as Ellen teacher or Ellen sauce, comes from the new horizon series of middle school English textbooks published by Tokyo books Co., Ltd. and is an English teacher who appeared in the textbooks. It became popular because of a Japanese netizen's Twitter in 2016.
In the original textbook, Mr. Allen's most famous action is designed to meet the needs of his "Boston Red Sox baseball fans" - waving a bat.
However, after Ms. Allen burst into flames, her original bat waving movement was obviously out of her own control and began to become the material for people's second creation.
Wait, when it comes to the textbook role playing Er Chuang, do you already have a picture in your mind? That's right, for example, Dufu, who is no longer "bitter enemy".
If our poets can play a big sniper, ride an electric donkey and brush the space, is it reasonable for Allen, a Japanese English teacher, to practice daily dialogue and chop with "big guys" students in class with a Longinus gun.
Unlike Dufu, who came from the textbook to the textbook, Mr. Allen's second innovation has no limitations, because he has the same name as the protagonist of the attacking giant series, and Mr. Allen will be "thrown into" the giant's world. At this time, the bat in her hand became the two large blades - the blades on the three-dimensional mobile device.
Since he can take the blade of a three-dimensional mobile device and fight against a super giant, it is natural that such a powerful teacher Allen, who was reborn as a spirit, began the Holy Grail War to make Dongmu nuclear level.
In addition to the pranks based on P-charts, in pixiv, where painters gather, you can also find a large number of works created by Mr. Allen - here, we choose Zhang nengfang.

Of course, Mr. Allen's influence is not limited to Japan. If it is normal for a character with partial quadratic attribute to have his own tag in pixiv station, how will you feel when you know that Mr. Allen even has his own Baidu Post?
So, after reading so many Japanese textbook roles that have aroused the creation of painters at home and abroad and the desire of netizens for P-pictures, do you think that only Japanese textbooks with such a thorough "two-dimensional" transformation can produce such a role that attracts many people?
Not necessarily.
If you are currently studying in a high school in Hunan Province, please open your geography textbook; If your IP address is not in Hunan, let me introduce you to Danxia, the most popular character in domestic textbooks in recent years, who is called "little princess of geography bar".
At the end of 2020, China, like Japan's Twitter in 2016, also came from the role Danxia in the textbook. Because an LSP helped the flames, it suddenly had a huge popularity.
Some netizens spontaneously made "textual research" in the textbook, and made a video "the collection of Danxia, a geography textbook for high school" which was transmitted to station B. the current broadcast volume is 1.39 million.

Of course, it is obvious that the collection of textbooks alone can not satisfy netizens. Erchuang is the real "end" of the textbook role. Some netizens have formed a CP with Danxia and her classmates' longitude and latitude.

Some netizens referred to the textbook and made a detailed profile setting diagram for Danxia. At first glance, you even thought it was GALGAME.
Even, some people have made a 3D version of the "dynamic Danxia" model for Danxia through the game engine and the "detail picking" that may not be so serious at work.
Obviously, our textbooks are not only those roles that appear in the recent negative news and completely run counter to the public aesthetic. For example, outside Danxia, Li Lei and Hanmeimei, the countless post-80s and 90s who grew up with CP, and the English dialogue "Hi, my name is..."
Even the editors of the textbooks really considered the story of Li Lei and Hanmeimei when they grew up, which caused the regret of countless netizens and made them ask the question "why Li Lei and Hanmeimei couldn't be together".
Our textbooks are constantly updating themselves from generation to generation with the rapid change of the times.
From the "Li Lei and Hanmeimei" of a generation's childhood memories to the "little princess of geography" Danxia, which has attracted the attention of many netizens, textbooks should and must be updated with their own iterations, in line with the constantly updated aesthetic concepts of primary school readers and even the public, and help knowledge enter people's minds from textbooks.
Excellent illustrations of a Chang and the book of mountains and seas in Chinese Textbooks
Of course, the illustrations in our teaching materials are not only the inferior pictures in the recent negative news, such as the cover of the first volume of Grade 7 of the people's education press. On the top, there is the elaborately arranged book of WangXiZhi "Le Yi Lun" and on the bottom, there is Xu Beihong's masterpiece "galloping horse map". Not only considering the layout of the teaching materials, but also combining the two elements of characters and paintings, they bring the children the beauty of ancient customs.
The aesthetic threshold may not be so high. Even children can use their own eyes to find spring and feel the charm of art. The teachers or classmates who appear in the textbooks may also lead the children to start from liking the textbooks and eventually fall in love with knowledge because of the character and image that the children like.
Li Jing, Allen, Danxia, and as for Li Leilei and Hanmeimei, the delightful characters in the textbooks can always attract the attention of a generation and ignite people's enthusiasm. We certainly hope that there will be more roles with rich settings like Li Jing or Danxia in future textbooks.
Of course, even if you can't be full, you can at least not be so hell.
