Abstract
Internet literary activities on various website platforms for original literature and We-media accounts have brought about new mechanism of literary production. Fundamental changes take place in literary production from "original creation" to "manufactured production": the shift of the focal concern of writers from expressing "the self" to catering to the taste of "the divided audience", the shift from a formulaic adaptive mode of writing to trans-formulaic writing to cope with the impact of A.I writing, and the formation of literary production groups to offset the pressure inserted by capital on the scale of literary production to require a shift from small workshop production to mass production. These changes will contribute to a fundamental transformation in the literary paradigm, and also reshape the literary field, in which the dissolution of the individuality of writers, or rather, the death of the author will be a fact. How to preserve the "aura" of literature in the transition is a new literary issue in the new media revolution.
