In the eight years from 2014 to 2021, the "human ideal" changed from Feng Teng in "Shan Shan Comes to Eat" to He Yichen in "Why Sheng Xiao Mo", and then from Xiao Nai in "A Smile Is Allure" Became Yu Tu in "You Are My Glory".

There are many ideals in the world, but they all belong to the heroine.

He Yichen has been cultivated for a hundred years.

The romantic ceiling in the minds of the post-90s generation is probably a " Gu Man style" male protagonist.

From 2014 to 2021, the "human ideal" changed from Feng Teng in " Shanshan Comes to Eat " to He Yichen in "Why Shengxiaomo", and then from He Yichen in "A Slight Smile is Very Good" Xiao Nai in "Allure" becomes Yu Tu in "You Are My Glory". You can't escape one person, but you can't escape a group. Gu Man-style male protagonists have taken the top spots in modern romance.

There are many differences between them. Feng Teng is a sinister and ruthless domineering president, He Yichen is a legal genius with low self-esteem and arrogance, Xiao Nai is the perfect campus male idol, and Yu Tu is a typical boyfriend within the system. But they have a lot in common: good looks, strong abilities, pursuits, and ideals. This can not only satisfy the desire of female readers, but also make their characters more three-dimensional and rich.

Gu Man's male protagonist's view on mate selection is all about loving the person you love and falling in love with someone, regardless of whether they are compatible or not in a secular sense.

Feng Teng is cold, but he is willing to eat with "little white rabbit" Shanshan. Shanshan can't get enough of this plump porridge and side dishes. In the world around him, relationships are also an exchange of interests, but Feng Teng has always only chosen Shanshan. He Yichen is even more like this. He and Zhao Mosheng have ancestral grudges, but he can't forget the warmth that little sun Zhao Mosheng left in his world. If he can't forget it in seven years, then he can't forget it in his whole life. . So after the reunion, he had to admit, "After so many years, I still lost to you, a complete defeat."

What needs to be overcome between the male protagonist and the female protagonist in Gu Man's style is that emotion is greater than class, and true love is greater than vulgarity.

Duan Jiaxu

Who is the leading actor on the romantic ceiling today? You may have seen his name on the Weibo hot search list - Duan Jiaxu.

Duan Jiaxu is the male protagonist of "Can't Hide Secretly" and is played by actor Chen Zheyuan in the TV series "Can't Hide Secretly" which is currently being filmed. The heroine's name is Sang Zhi, played by Zhao Lusi .

"Can't Hide Secretly" can be seen from the name that this is a story about secret love. Sang Zhi has been secretly in love with her brother Sang Yan's good friend Duan Jia Xu since she was a girl. She wrote down two wishes in her life in her diary: first, to be admitted to Yihe University; second, Duan Jia Xu. In order to keep her crush secret, she broke all the girl's thoughts into stars and put them in a bottle. It was only after Sang Zhi came of age that Duan Jiaxu realized that the person she liked was him.

Because of the 7-year age difference between the two, this relationship is quite controversial. But for Sang Zhi, her girlhood was spent in love with the "evil brother" Duan Jiaxu - "What's wrong with you kid? You blush when you see your brother?"

Duan Jiaxu is different from other male protagonists , he shouldered the burden of his original family. After driving drunk, his father jumped off a building and became a vegetative state, and later committed suicide. He and his parents have been living in the shadow of the victim's family. Duan Jiaxu spent his college years working around to support his family. He looked careless on the surface, but in his heart he believed that he could no longer have a happy life. But he is gentle by nature and swallows the bitterness by himself. This also made Sang Zhi feel distressed and admired, understood and yearned for.

The gentle Duan Jiaxu has a bit of a "daddy boyfriend" in him. "What other little girls have, we just have to have." This sentence was ridiculed as "greasy" after it was posted on Weibo, but it is just a protection for the beloved girl. "local love words" Xiao Neng said in praise, "Brother makes more money so that you can eat candies worth a thousand yuan each. You will forgive your brother's behavior of eating young grass." These words are audible. Those who couldn't hear laughed loudly, and those who couldn't listen felt their toes dig into the ground. Including, the title "child" in the book also has mixed reviews.

But the same goes for " Paper Man ". It will become popular only if there is controversy. It is precisely the various controversies about the setting of "Secretly Can't Hide" that put Duan Jiaxu on the "romance ceiling" and became a presence that cannot be ignored in the new generation of youth romance.It is conceivable that maybe "kid" will become a buzzword on a certain day after the TV series is aired.

Another romance ceiling is none other than Sang Yan in "Hard to Coax". Sang Yan is Sang Zhi's brother. Precisely because of the popularity of "Hard to Coax", book fans are controversial about the casting of Sang Yan in the TV series. This is also the first time many people know "Sang Yan". Sang Yan is a very dedicated and passionate person. He used his youth to warm up Wen Yifan's youthful years when he was worried about his family of origin. He also became angry after a series of fateful encounters such as the two's inconsistent choices of university schools. Leave. The so-called "difficult to coax" was that he spent several years coaxing himself to get back to Wen Yifan again.

He said, "Wen Yifan, am I your spare tire?" "Spare tire, that's fine too." So some people say that the two infatuated members of the Sang family , saved two people from poor native families.

Duan Jiaxu and Sang Yan are both popular male protagonists in the works of writer Zhu Ji. They are inseparable in each other's chapters, and each shines in their own chapters. The reason why they can become the new romance ceiling is that on the one hand, readers born in the 2000s and 2005s prefer campus novels, and they are full of fantasies about campus love. The second reason is that whether it is Duan Jiaxu or Sang Yan, they may not be the human ideals in the hearts of adult women, but they are irreplaceable in the hearts of young girls.
