On the evening of September 26, some netizens discovered that the TV series "High Gentlemen of East Eighth District" starring Zhang Han was removed from the shelves.
Search for related platforms to find that there are only some clips and behind-the-scenes left on the video website, and the main film is gone. There is no relevant party responding to the statement of being removed from the shelves, but the controversy caused by the drama is not a day or two as soon as possible. Now it has been removed from the shelves, netizens also called for support.
. Before it was taken off the shelves, CCTV Movie Channel made a comment on the drama, bluntly saying that the "black and red" route of is not advisable. Popular cultural works should be responsible for their own content and three views. Creators should have a bottom-line awareness and cannot challenge the audience's aesthetic arbitrarily. The "black and red" route that relies on bad reviews to attract attention is even a deformed mentality of fishing out of the water.
When it was first aired, the drama was criticized by People's Daily for its vulgar plot, greasy Zhang Han, suspected of insulting women, etc. , 40,000 people gave "Gentlemen of East Eighth Districts" a low score of 2.2, becoming the lowest score of the year in 2022. Now the rating has dropped to 2.1, which is a big bad drama.
Nowadays the series has been removed from the shelves. Although there is no definite statement yet, it has a lot to do with the plot to a large extent. So the blame must be carried out by Zhang Han, the starring and screenwriter.
In the play, from pulling underwear to taking the chest to getting on your hands to getting on your chest, to the various lines full of color connotations, which made many viewers physically and mentally uncomfortable.
lines are not only greasy but also stinky. What are the lines of "I'm going to eat you", "Women will never die of bleeding for thousands of years", etc., which made netizens call out how this passed the review?
The drama focuses on the inspirational routes of young men, but the growth routes of several male actors in the play are not eye-catching, and the characters are not charming at all. There is even a plot like spreading rumors to the heroine, which is really incompetent.
As the screenwriter, Zhang Han actually wrote about a first love with the shadow of his ex-girlfriend. I was intimate with the heroine, but I said I still loved my first love. Not only did I raise children for my first love, but my first love also looked particularly like his ex-girlfriend who had become a passerby, which made netizens stunned. This plot also caused large-scale controversy, and Zhang Han was completely looking for abuse to use bad artists to hype up topics.
After this drama was overturned in all aspects, Zhang Han’s personal Weibo comment section had completely fallen, and the messages were basically negative comments. He himself was also exposed by netizens, and all the traffic police and other pasts were exposed.
The comments from netizens are unceremonious, and Zhang Han is commented on "third-rate acting and vulgar actor", and some people question why Zhang Han has not been banned yet.
It is not difficult to find out if you search with keywords. Many netizens have begun to shout and hope that Zhang Han will withdraw from the circle quickly.
Zhang Han simply did not promote the new drama, and the official Weibo of the drama was also suspended for half a month ago, and other starring actors did not promote any content of the drama.
Now that the TV series has been removed from the shelves, it can only be said that it is really forever. However, the previous thunder drama " Thunder Warrior " was removed from the shelves because of the plot's complete failure, with a rating of only 2.1. Now "Gentlemen in East Eight" has also encountered the same "treatment", which I have to say.
As a popular star in the film and television industry, Zhang Han himself only needs to act well, but he has to come and get involved in the production.
Moreover, many of his previous dramas were not broadcast because of Korean stars. From these, we can see that Zhang Han himself does not have the talent in content, and he even did not realize what is not suitable for and what is too exaggerated and controversial. He just pointed and snatched the job of a professional director. Now that he has encountered this treatment, I can only say that I hope he learns his lesson and stop torture the audience next time.
