"Gentlemen from the East Eighth District of " in the latest episode, Zhang Han plays Tong Yu who wants to hold many of the characters played by Wang Xiaochen on his body, but the position of Zhang Han's hands triggers dispute.
In the play, Tong Yu, played by Zhang Han, obviously put his hand on the girl's chest when he hugged many of the characters played by Wang Xiaochen. "Workplace salty pig hands" and "sexual harassment". And in the previous episodes, there have also been behaviors where the male protagonist unintentionally buckles the female protagonist's underwear belt. Faced with such a low-quality and eye-catching plot, the comment area asked why the show "passed the trial"?
's new drama titled "Gentlemen in the East Eighth District" is an urban drama directed by Xia Rui, with Zhang Han participating in the script and starring. Video co-first. And just after the broadcast, it directly ushered in "Score Waterloo". Nearly 80% of the audience on Douban gave a "one-star negative review", and this new drama also broke the record for the lowest score of a domestic drama with a low score of 2.4 points, becoming a "bad movie" in the mouths of netizens. In the modern domestic drama circle dominated by male group portraits, the score has been so low and the ratings have been declining. The reason is inseparable from the unrealistic plot and the greasy and spicy plot in the play. From the very beginning,
has been focusing on "light comedy of urban life", but in fact, it has not departed from the exaggeration and unrealistic common in urban dramas. The four male protagonists in the play live a relatively "decent" life, enjoying a "petty bourgeoisie" life but complaining about the difficulty of life, not to mention the tricky episodes in the play like "winning customers in a few words", the above All of them convey a wrong value, which is difficult to resonate and deepens the anxiety of the audience. One can't help but sigh, "Life is not easy, why bother to watch a drama?"
has a low score. Another point, which is also an important reason for the scolding on the Internet, is that there are a lot of greasy lines and plots in this drama. Indecent lines with subtle hints such as "quietly going to your depths", "thin ones look good, fat ones are easy to use", and "hands on underwear" and "hands on breasts" and other hot-eyed passages can't help but make people feel a burst of "Physical discomfort". The wedding scene turned into a vulgar plot such as flirting at a pool party, which not only completely "oiled" the male protagonist of the show, but also exposed disrespect to the female group and offense to the male group. The greasy performances and spicy lines that can be seen everywhere in the play seem to have constructed a large-scale sexual harassment scene, which made the audience in front of the screen unable to restrain their "anger" and went to the comment area to ask why the play passed the trial.
Whether it is a group portrait of women or a group of men, there are many excellent works in urban dramas in recent years. Behind the fire of these excellent works, in addition to the plot with a strong sense of substitution, there are more positive values. Whether it's the work of the low-level little people in the play or the urban life of "Gao Fushuai" and "Bai Fumei", excellent urban dramas can always create a vivid image of flesh and blood that suits their own personal setting, so that the audience does not know whether Juejian has empathy with the characters in the play . In terms of plot, although the life of the characters in the play has twists and turns, but the attitude of torrent and courageous progress can also inspire the audience, so as to show the beauty of human nature and life in the urban concrete jungle, so that the audience can find the motivation to live a positive life. Looking back at "Gentlemen of the East Eighth District", a magnificent "spiritual palace" is built with seemingly gorgeous rhetoric, but when you walk in, you find that there are no bricks and tiles in the palace. The inner "rough room". The plot is full of loopholes, the lines are greasy and vulgar, and the plot is old-fashioned. How can it help the audience to establish a positive attitude towards life by deviating from the actual protagonist group and distorting the wrong values? "Gentlemen of the East Eighth District" Douban scored 2.2 points, absolutely not wrong!
's art comes from life, as People's Entertainment said when commenting on "Mr. Dongba District", "What audiences want to see are male stories that truly reflect life and are close to life, rather than continue to talk about " Let's watch the meteor shower together in a different age group". "." To get rid of vulgar plots, to convey correct values, to be really close to life, and to get rid of pomp and reality, is the "kingdom" for the survival of current urban dramas.
