" China Women's News " also ended up criticizing, summed up four points: objectified women, greasy to the point of explosion, erotic rubbing, and floating everywhere.

"Love together, get married together, go to the bridal chamber together" "Rainy night, cold iron" "Can you eat spicy food, no wonder your body is so hot", the heroine accidentally fell, and the hero reached out to help , actually grabbed her underwear belt and let go, and also cooperated with 360-degree slow-motion rotation shooting, you can hardly imagine that this is a TV series line and plot that will be broadcast in 2022. The plot of
was scolded at the time, and it was also on the hot search. In the plot broadcast by
a few days ago, the plot similar to pulling the underwear belt appeared again. Tong Yu, played by Zhang Han, wants the girlfriend around him to sit on his lap. Originally, the heroine can stand up and turn around and sit down, but Tong Yu deliberately pressed her hand on the girl's chest when hugging the girl's waist. The plot challenging the audience's bottom line triggered the second shock of public opinion. Zhang Han's hand was on the hot search and was criticized by netizens as "salty pig's hand".
, a netizen who has watched "Gentlemen of the East Eighth District" shared her impressions and said, "This show is simply anti-intellectual and insulting to women." She believes that the show shows a wretched and greasy male fantasy, and the director and screenwriter But romanticized the plot of a lot of sexual harassment, "this is actually terrible." And a netizen who has seen clips of the play on the short video platform said that as a boy, he also felt physical discomfort after watching it, "I haven't had these childish fantasies since I graduated from junior high school. It's hard to imagine people in their thirties and forties. I'm still having such dreams." Why can't
domestic dramas make group portraits of men?
is a male group portrait drama about four urban males who have passed their predicament and become mature. The main creator seems to be interested in the TV series " Thirty Only ", but in the eyes of the audience, it is more like the male version of "Little Times", and it is more greasy and wretched. In recent years, female group portrait dramas such as "Thirty Only" and " Twenty Not Confused " have frequently made good results. Why are domestic dramas not good for male group portraits? He Tianping, a
TV commentator and a Dr. from the School of Journalism, Renmin University of China, believes that "Gentlemen from the East Eighth District" is indescribable in terms of play, production and performance, but compared to shoddy production, the bigger problem is that Its conception deviates from the mainstream social culture of this era.
For example, there are a lot of wretched and greasy actions in the play, some jokes and jokes are relatively old and vulgar, and the characters are immersed in a so-called successful male narcissism. "Once the idea can't stand up, everything will be criticized."
In addition to being broadcast on the Internet platform, the show is also broadcast on Hubei Satellite TV , which has also caused many netizens to be dissatisfied: Recently, many 7 or 8 points are good There is no chance for a drama to be starred, why can a 2-point bad drama be starred?
"It is actually a prejudice that star dramas are better than online dramas." He Tianping introduced that the Internet and Taiwan are just different broadcast channels for film and television dramas. In the current censorship mechanism and supervision logic, the Internet and Taiwan have unified standards, not There is a phenomenon that online dramas are more relaxed than star dramas.
Lu Peng, a researcher at the Press Institute of the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences and director of the Film and Television Culture and Audio-Visual Communication Research Center, believes that "going to the stars" is actually the result of a multi-faceted game. In addition to the correct orientation and values, it also involves commercial considerations.
In recent years, female group dramas such as " Ode to Joy ", "Twenty Not Confused", "Thirty Only", and " I'm Good in Another Country " have flourished and gained high popularity and reputation, but " Lin Shen" There are almost one male group portrait dramas such as "See the Deer ", " Chasing the Family ", " If Time Goes Back ", etc., but almost one of them has been ridiculed by the group. What is the reason why domestic dramas are not good for male group portraits?
In Lv Peng's view, there are actually some good group portrait dramas with male as the main body in domestic dramas, such as " Dajiang Dahe ". But usually people attribute it to the drama, and they are less likely to interpret it from a gender perspective. In recent years, most of the female group portrait dramas belong to the category of family ethics urban dramas. Most of these dramas are dominated by female audiences. When the main object of expression is aimed at men, there is no advantage in natural acceptance. It is difficult to get rid of the fate of being "ridiculous". Lv Peng believes that "female group portrait drama" is a type of drama for family ethics urban idol dramas facing new urban women, and its creation will naturally be biased towards women's interests.
"Male group portraits have existed in our film and television creations for a long time." He Tianping also believes that historical dramas and main dramas are basically male group portrait dramas, such as " People's Name " " Great Qin Empire " " Daming Dynasty 1566", " Langya Bang ", etc., but we don't look at them in the concept of male group portrait dramas. "It's hard to say how a female group portrait drama or a male group portrait drama is good. If you measure it by the same standard, a good work should have a big vision and creative pattern. At least, there is no prejudice. In the production process, we must also work steadily.”
