[1] 《罗刹海市》：清蒲松龄著《聊斋志异》中反讽现实颠倒黑白、以丑为美的名篇。一位富二代帅哥马骥被飓风卷入海上罗刹国，该国以丑为美，越丑陋官级越高，马骥不得不以煤涂面扮作黑张飞，被拜为下大夫。蒲松龄以此讽喻“花面逢迎，世情如鬼”、“小惭（不要脸）小好，大惭大好”的丑陋世相。该篇后半部分，马骥在社会底层村人的帮助下逃离罗刹国，来到龙王的海市蜃楼，遇到真爱——小龙女，得以重返有情有义的人间。2023年7月19日，著名音乐人刀郎发布新专辑《山歌寥哉》，“山歌寥哉”是“山歌聊斋”的谐音，指他根据聊斋文本和民间曲牌创作而成，“山歌寥哉”也指质朴纯情的山歌很少了，也有人认为，“廖哉”还表达了他不为世容，被歌坛同行排挤的寂廖之意。

[1] "Rakshasa Sea City ": A famous piece written by Pu Songling of the Qing Dynasty in" Strange Stories from a Liaozhai "that satirizes reality, inverts black and white, and regards ugliness as beauty. A wealthy second generation handsome man named Ma Ji was swept into the sea by a hurricane in the Raksha Kingdom. The country is beautiful in terms of ugliness, and the uglier the country is, the higher the official rank. Ma Ji had to dress up as Black Zhang Fei with a coal coated face and was worshipped as a junior doctor. Pu Songling used this as a satire to describe the ugly world of "flattery with a flower face, the world is like a ghost" and "small shame (shameless) is good, big shame is good". In the second half of the article, Ma Ji escaped from the Luocha State with the help of the villagers at the bottom of the society, came to the Mirage of the Dragon King, met the true love, Xiao Longnv, and was able to return to the world of love and righteousness. On July 19, 2023, famous musician Dao Lang released his new album "Shan Ge Liao Zai". "Shan Ge Liao Zai" is a homophonic term for "Shan Ge Liao Zhai", referring to his creation based on Liao Zhai texts and folk music. "Shan Ge Liao Zai" also refers to the scarcity of simple and innocent folk songs. Some believe that "Liao Zai" also expresses his loneliness and exclusion from the music industry.
