What if there is no material for writing an article? Here are eight methods for reference.

Qi Fanqi's micro-lesson

Wen/Liu Qingshan

A mature new media article, if you have studied it carefully, you will find that stories and golden sentences account for the bulk. As for the extended comments and opinions, you can often come out with a little understanding according to the material, which is another topic.

what is the material? In fact, it is the fact that we used to talk about truth when we were students, that is, the stories and golden sentences we often see in new media articles, which need us to accumulate deliberately.

I have been accumulating golden sentences recently, mainly extracting famous aphorisms and short philosophical sentences that appear on the large size, but I feel that I am lacking in story materials.

I think one of the reasons for this deficiency is that my social experience is very limited, and the other is that I haven't read enough books, movies and news stories, or even what I have seen can't be transformed into useful information and used in articles, so there are often clever women who can't see without straw.

I learned a lesson today, mainly to solve the problem of how to write an article without material. I hereby summarize eight methods as follows, which will not only deepen my impression, but also bring some inspiration to my friends.

In fact, story cases can also refer to the materials in those large articles, but this will easily lead to the suspicion of manuscript washing.

So it's best to actively search for new materials by yourself, and dig up authentic materials from your own personal experience, without worrying about bumping into the material at all, because you are you, and everyone's life experience can't be exactly the same.

to dig up materials from yourself, it is best to write the easiest and most credible.

Family, friendship, love, workplace, life ... We have contact with others all the time, and what people around us say or happen can become writing materials.

For example, you can write about a friend's reaction after his lovelorn love, a relative's opinion on your admission to graduate school, and a colleague's experience after leaving his job and changing jobs ... All these can be known through daily contact and chat, which is good material.

We need to be thoughtful people to dig materials from people around us.

Weibo, Baidu, Today's Headlines, Tencent News ... There are a lot of news that come to our eyes actively or passively every day, and some of them are definitely suitable for writing materials. Keep records in time and find them easily when needed.

There are some good emotional columns on TV, which can actually be regarded as news. We can deliberately pay attention to them and apply them to articles, which are also good materials.

you need to keep a keen eye and mind to dig out material from news.

The videos we are talking about here are not just short videos that are popular nowadays. If you want to gain more systematic knowledge and materials that are conducive to writing, you can watch more classic movies, documentaries, classic TV dramas and variety shows.

The video material can start from the following aspects: drama review, analysis of story characters and analysis of classic lines. Of course, if you don't have so much time to watch videos at ordinary times and you need it in writing, try the "keyword" retrieval method.

looking for material from videos requires deliberate accumulation and retrieval.

I said at the beginning that it is best to accumulate famous sayings and epigrams from other people's articles as available materials, because you can use what celebrities have said, I can use it, and everyone can use it, so there is no plagiarism.

But for some very personal materials, such as stories, personal experiences, film and television focus, you can't write what others write. We can do the opposite with critical thinking, or we can find a point from other people's articles to extend.

When looking for materials from other people's articles, we need to pay great attention to avoid suspicion.

Zhihu platform is a good question-and-answer platform. Netizens are all immortal players from all walks of life. There are many inspirational and touching stories and many golden sentences in the comment reply area, which can be written in articles.

Similarly, the comment area or video barrage of other website platforms can generate a lot of writing materials and inspiration, so you can accumulate more with your heart and don't worry when you need it.

Look for answers and comments from netizens, and manually retrieve and save them for later use.

Himalaya, Fandeng Reading Club, Ten o'clock People's Tales ... It is also a good way to accumulate writing materials through audio. You can wear a headset to capture touching and available writing materials after school or on the way to pick up your children.

At the same time, I believe that many friends who like reading and writing, like me, have bought many kinds of audio books, such as talking about a book for 1 minutes or 15 minutes, but after listening to one or two, they forget about it. Don't waste it, it sounds!

it's an easy way to look for material from audio.

"If you read a book a hundred times, you can see its meaning." As writers all know, if you want to keep outputting, you must keep inputting. Books are the crystallization of human wisdom, which can be said to be vast, and there are 1 different Hamlets in the hearts of 1 readers. It is very unlikely that the materials searched in books will overlap with others. If you want to write, you must read more books.

But there are so many books, what kind of books should I read? In fact, you can read any book. The key is that it is not so easy to grab the material. My suggestion is that you should read the book first. You need to use golden sentences or story columns. You can go back and search the famous books through the Internet or look through the books again to find relevant details to help you write.

Finding materials from books is the most classic and practical way.

there are thousands of materials, and the key is to keep them and find them. What is a good material worth recording? Stories, golden sentences, small experiments, scientific data, technical terms ... these things can make our articles instantly more compelling and more readable.

Material classification can be divided by field, for example, emotional categories are put together and parenting categories are put together; It can also be divided into types, such as stories put together and golden sentences put together.

gold is everywhere for those who have a heart, but bubbles are everywhere for those who have no heart. Writing really requires us to be a calm person, especially in the aspect of material accumulation.

Come on, everyone!
