Today, I want to share something interesting I came across that is related to our writing output.

The Spring Festival hiatus is here again, and I guess this time a large group of people will stop updating during the holiday.

Below, I’ll collect and share some of my thoughts.

The Data Truth

In our creative community, in the 30 days before the Spring Festival, the average daily output was 1.2 posts per person, but during the 7 days of the Spring Festival, it plummeted to 0.3 posts—yet this is precisely the “overtaking curve” for top players.

The Harsh Law

The elimination mechanism in the writing race is essentially the “holiday hiatus filter”:

• 80% of people lose algorithmic recommendation weight due to halting updates.

• 15% of people barely maintain their output with pre-written drafts.

• Only 5% of geeks use AI writing to achieve “holiday aggressive output.”

AI Breakthrough Strategy

1. Ambush Battle: Use AI to bulk-generate a “Spring Festival Hot Topic Ammo Library.”

   • Tools: Hot topic prediction + viral title templates.

2. Guerrilla Warfare: AI minimalist writing flow (1 article/30 minutes).

   • Formula: Old article re-organizer (feed historical articles → AI extracts viewpoints → mix in holiday elements).

3. Cognitive Battle: When everyone else stops updating, use AI-generated content to flood the platform's recommendation pool.

   • Counterintuitive: Algorithmic competition intensity drops by 47% during the Spring Festival, and the unit content exposure premium increases by 3 times.

Final Thoughts

During holidays, there will always be people who fall behind on the writing journey.

The output data of users on the platform has clearly dropped, with many halting updates due to holiday distractions.

But writing is a long race, and time will filter out the true persevere.

After the Spring Festival, those who left because of the hiatus are just the 99% eliminated by time.

And those who remain are the true winners.

Remember, consistent long-term effort itself is a skill!
