In the past few years, the most common male characters in mainland TV series were the "domineering president". He Yichen, Feng Teng and others were all very popular characters.
In recent years, due to the serious homogeneity of the roles, they have been too macho. In addition, the actors' acting skills are delicate, and the audience has become aesthetically tired of the male protagonists who are domineering presidents. Every time such a role appears, they will be criticized by the audience.
Recently, " Gentlemen of East Eight Districts " starring Zhang Han caused complaints from the entire network because of the shocking plot and greasy acting skills. The drama was removed from the shelves on September 26 and was also criticized by CCTV. So what is the plot?
"Gentlemen in East Eight" is starring Zhang Han, Du Chun, Jingchao and others. It tells the story of four college friends working together to overcome difficulties, meet the difficulties and challenges in their lives, meet their own love, and become better together. This drama is based on a relaxed and pleasant light comedy and is an urban romance drama.
The audience was unhappy at all, and the first one to be questioned was the earthy lines full of father-flavor in the play. The lines in the play, such as "Just be a brother, not talk about right and wrong", "I don't like others drinking black tea in front of me", are speechless and embarrassing, empty and ridiculous, and are simply powerless to complain.
The background and furnishings in the play are even more exaggerated, claiming to express "unsatisfaction in the adult world", but what is shown has nothing to do with normal people's lives. The actors eat instant noodles in a taxi and live in a luxurious apartment comparable to fine decoration. They say undoubtedly fake empty lines every day, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.
Many viewers complained: "If you live a normal life, you can't write such a script." "You can't write the life of ordinary people and don't know how to observe? Who would you disgust when writing such things?"
The biggest disadvantage of this drama is that the plot is boring. It seems to be a group portrait drama of four men, but in fact there is no story worth watching. The story of each character is superficial, and the costumes are very attentive. It can be said to be an actor's fashion show.
If you open this TV series, I believe that if you can't stick to an episode, you will have the urge to press fast forward wildly.
The problem of "materializing women" in the plot is also very serious. The male protagonist always thinks that the female protagonist loves her crazy, and says, "Beauty, do you love spicy food? You have such a hot figure." Such disgusting lines.
In addition, the plots such as pulling shoulder straps and rubbing breasts in the play have aroused public anger. This drama still portrays women like this when most of the audience are women, which shows how ignorant the screenwriter and the team are.
In addition to the shortcomings of the plot itself, Zhang Han, as the starring actor, was criticized by everyone to the point of being completely exhausted.
Zhang Han is a typical "domineering president professional" in the entertainment industry. From Murong Yunhai more than ten years ago to later Feng Teng, Zhan Nanxian, etc., they are all cold on the outside and hot on the inside, with a million yuan in net worth, arrogant personality, and serious homogeneity. The key is that in the face of such an embarrassing situation, Zhang Han himself not only did not think about improving his acting skills, but instead felt very proud.
In an interview, Zhang Han once asked the reporter publicly: "You can just find an actor who is recognized as good as good as he or she can play the domineering president? The domineering president is not as easy as you think." This arrogant and arrogant speech surprised the audience.
In fact, Zhang Han’s bold words have reflected his biggest problem: there are too many praises around him, his confidence is extremely inflated, and he can no longer see who he is.
In the play, Zhang Han's acting skills are called "peacock spreading his tail". When he acts against the heroine, the heroine's eyes are very affectionate and full of love.
But Zhang Han raised his eyebrows and squinted his eyes, and his whole expression seemed to be saying "Is I attractive?"
In this rivalry, he did not look at the actress, but looked at himself through the pupils of others. He was so narcissistic that he really didn't know whether it was funny or pitiful. He didn't see it at all, and this performance was so sucking.
So far, I have hardly seen a positive review about "Gentlemen in East Eighth Districts". All of them are negative reviews, and Douban even gave a negative review of 2.1 points. Because this TV series is seriously out of reality and has no lower limit on the plot, it was officially removed from the shelves.
In response to this, many netizens said, "Support! Such a script should not be filmed at all." "It's too much to materialize women like this. Do you think women all over the world should love you like macho?" "This time, Zhang Han really should reflect on himself."
CCTV once criticized the drama by name and said: "Creators must have a bottom-line awareness." Indeed, if Zhang Han wants to change his reputation, it's better to go deep into the people and remove the "greasiness" on his body.
