Fictions and comics were two different forms of art. There were differences in creation and communication.
A novel was usually created by an author who could decide on the plot, characters, and theme of the story. The creation of a novel takes a lot of time and energy, so the update speed of a novel is usually slower than that of a comic book because the author needs more time to conceive and create a novel.
Comics were usually created by multiple authors. The storyline and character design were all jointly decided by the collaborators. Because the collaborators had similar creation speeds, the manga update speed was relatively fast.
In addition, novels and comics had different ways of spreading. Fictions usually needed to be published and disseminated through publishing houses and distribution channels, while comics could be distributed and disseminated through standalone books and online comics platforms. Therefore, comics spread faster than novels.
To sum up, the speed at which novels and comics were updated was affected by many factors, such as the way they were created, the way they were disseminated, and the time they took to update.
The slowness of the Made in Abyss manga might be due to the author's meticulous approach. They could be aiming for a more polished and immersive experience for the readers, which takes additional time and effort.
The Legend of Jet Li was a book written by Xiaodong Liao. The content mainly introduced the life and career development of Jet Li. Jet Li was born on April 26, 1963. He was from Beijing. He entered the Beijing Sports School in the summer of 1971 and began his martial arts journey. In 1982, he became famous with the movie Shaolin Temple and became a well-known martial arts star. He also collaborated with Huang Qiuyan to film " Shaolin Boy." The two of them got married in 1986 and had two daughters. After that, he and Lizhi registered their marriage in Los Angeles and gave birth to a son. Jet Li had been rumored to have passed away many times, but he humorously responded in public that he was not dead yet and revealed that he had arranged his funeral and left all his inheritance to his family. However, he did not mention the arrangements for his ex-wife and two other daughters.
Jet Li said that competitive routines were just for show. This sentence could be understood from the concept of yin and yang in martial arts that he mentioned in his book," Sunshine of Life." He explained that the yin and yang in martial arts referred to the opposites of the moves, such as positive and negative, hard and soft, long and short, etc., while the yin and yang in life was a philosophical division of problems. He believed that there were two sides to everything. From one point of view, it would be something else. Therefore, he thought that competitive routines were just for show. Perhaps it meant that competitive routines looked gorgeous on the surface, but in fact, one needed to deeply understand the opposite of yin and yang in order to truly understand their meaning.
Jet Li expressed his regret after filming Shaolin Temple and felt that the film had a negative impact on young people. He also said that he never regretted abandoning his ex-wife, Huang Qiuyan, for Lizhi, but he regretted not spending more time with his daughter. In addition, Jet Li had also expressed regret for missing out on some movies, such as New Dragon Inn. However, there was no specific reason or other relevant information about Jet Li's regret.
Jet Li apologized to his eldest daughter in a video released in October 2021. When he was asked in an interview if his daughters had inherited his martial arts talent, he replied that none of his daughters knew martial arts, and only his youngest daughter, Jetta, was interested in it. However, his eldest daughter, Li Si, replied to the video on social media that she actually knew martial arts and had learned from her father since she was young. This answer caused Li Si to be dissatisfied. Jet Li realized that he had neglected his elder daughter because he couldn't even answer her favorite color or her classmate's name. He said that he had made a lot of contributions to society, but he felt guilty for neglecting his eldest daughter. Therefore, he apologized to his eldest daughter and said that he would reflect on his actions and find the root of the problem. This apology showed that Jet Li realized his shortcomings as a father and hoped to make up for his past mistakes.
