When mentioning the porn industry, most people will think of Japan. After all, many men completed their enlightenment education by watching Japanese "action movies" and are familiar with Japanese actresses, so everyone has such a consensus.
However, there is one country that is not inferior to Japan in this regard, or even worse, and that is the Czech Republic , a small European country that is rarely mentioned.
This is really a small country, with a land area of only 78,900 square kilometers, less than the size of Chongqing, and a population of 10.7 million, which is only half of the population of Beijing.
is very inconspicuous, but there is an extremely huge porn empire here. From online to offline, adult content is not only an industry in the Czech Republic, but also a culture.
In the Czech Republic, for every 1 million people, at least 70 people have starred in adult films, and there are countless people who have been exposed to this industry, and almost everyone has participated.
In the Czech Republic, there are national-level athletes Podkapova, who switched from sports to film; and 68-year-old industry veteran Pavel Terrier, who witnessed the transformation of adult content from CDs to streaming media.
has the sexiest Czech male model in Europe, as well as a 35-year-old Czech female teacher. People from all walks of life and all kinds of people have been involved in porn shooting.
Based on a large number of practitioners, it has naturally created a prosperous pornographic media industry in the Czech capital Prague .
The filming locations are also diverse, and even abandoned hospitals and castles left over from the previous era cannot escape the lens frame of the adult director.
Due to the Czech Republic’s status in the porn industry, the European Adult Summit has been held in Prague for many years. Business leaders watched the striptease while discussing project cooperation, which was very comfortable.
Many adult film and television companies have taken root in Prague. In Prague alone, there are 15 studios that shoot gay films.
In 2013, the place even held a "Porn Weekend" event.

WGCZ Holdings, the giant that dominates the online porn world, is based in Prague. The company owns the world's first and third largest adult websites, as well as one of the world's largest male porn magazines " Penthouse ".
Industry insiders estimate that online pornographic content in the Czech Republic can generate up to 630 million US dollars in revenue each year, which is approximately 0.2% of the country's GDP.
The prosperous adult industry has even penetrated into the political field. Czech politicians will more or less bring some rumors related to pornography.
This has also contributed to the sustained and rapid development of the local porn industry, and the production of adult content has become one of the symbols of the Czech country.
The cause of today's "grand situation" can be traced back to more than 30 years ago. The Czech Republic at that time was much crazier than it is now.
In 1993, the Czechoslovak Federal Republic peacefully split into two independent political entities: the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
In this process, the people's lifestyle crossed the Iron Curtain and moved towards the West, and sex, a once suppressed topic, was also liberated in the Czech Republic.
Many small shops called "adult video booths" appeared on the streets of Prague. They were like the old black video studios in China. A large group of people crowded into a small room to watch the war together, and their faces were red.
Marked by the popularity of video kiosks, pornographic cultural products began to explode across the Czech Republic.
In June 1990, the first adult magazine LEO appeared on the streets of Prague. Six months later, the magazine's sales reached 480,000 copies per month.
At the same time, phone porn became popular in the Czech Republic. Countless teenagers were obsessed with the taboo sounds on the receiver, completely ignoring the expensive communication charges that were calculated by the minute.
TV stations began to launch pornographic TV programs, such as weather forecasters deciding how much clothes to take off based on tomorrow's weather;
or celebrities sitting on a chair in the shape of a woman's red lips and talking about their private topics to the audience.
In March 1990, a serious Czech political party was established. This political party was called: Independent Porn Initiative, aiming to promote sexual liberation throughout the Czech Republic.
It was in this atmosphere that the Czech porn industry began to take shape. Cheap filming costs and open sexual concepts made the Czech Republic quickly become the largest adult content producer in Europe.
In the 1990s, the investment in a Czech porn film could even reach 1 million US dollars.
With the advent of the streaming media era, the Czech Republic has become the first choice for many online adult websites due to its stable Internet speed and cheap server rental business.
All of the above reasons have allowed the Czech Republic to gradually develop into a "pornographic country". Nowadays, pornography has long become this country's secret and sexy exclusive business card, making people remember it in another way.
