Flawed humanity
With its political themes and corrupt officials, many viewers refer to the show as China's version of Netflix's House of Cards.
In 2014, when the US drama became a hit in China with everyone from government officials to ordinary viewers, many fans of the drama hoped that a
Chinese version of the drama could be made.
"I am a fan for House of Cards as well. People often criticize domestic works saying they are not as interesting Cheap
Broncos Jerseys , but if we were to produce a work like House of Cards
would it be possible for such a work to pass the various censorship boards?"
well-known Chinese mainland actor Zhang Guoli once told the press.
What's so amazing about House of Cards? The story's characters are probably the most important factor.
There are no real "good" guys on the show, either from a moral or legal standpoint. This made the show feel completely fresh to Chinese audiences, who
were captivated by the deal-making and back-stabbing that were depicted going on
in the White House - the kind of intrigue that could only be seen on a period
show set in ancient times if it were a Chinese show.
Characters come across as realistic because they are depicted as flawed human beings. While everyone struggles for power and wealth, audiences can also see
how they are trapped by their situation and therefore sympathize and even grow
fond of them.
Such characters are nearly impossible to find in current Chinese film or TV works, which always depict a clear line between good and bad.
But this has changed with In the Name of People. Wu Gang's character Li Dakang has become popular precisely because he reflects the real character flaws
that a real Chinese official may have. By
comparison Cheap
Brandon Marshall Jersey , other lead characters such as prosecutor Hou
Liangping and provincial Party chief Sha Ruijin come across as too perfect and
righteous, which makes them feel less like characters and more like mouthpieces
that exist solely to preach to the audience.
In fact, the reason In the Name of People can be considered a good TV drama has more to do with its themes and depiction of characters as people rather than
the quality of the script or the way it is shot.
Space to grow
The last batch of anti-graft dramas was filmed before 2004. Works like Guojia Gongsu (State Prosecution), Zhongcheng (Loyalty), Juedui Quanli (Absolute Power)
and Renda Zhuren (Director of the People's Congress) brought depictions of a few
major anti-graft cases to the silver screen to the applause of both the
government and the public.
However Cheap Bradley Roby Jersey , in 2004, such dramas were removed from prime time due to
concerns about the negative impact these shows would have on audiences'
perception of the government. According to a 2004 report from ent.sina,
authorities were worried that "corrupt officials in the dramas are being
depicted in higher and higher levels of the government" and "some dramas have
begun depicting power struggles between government officials."
However, what once caused the government worry is now winning applause.
The biggest villain in In the Name of People is a national-level official, while smaller corrupt officials range from the provincial level to much lower
levels. Even some people in the police are depicted as being involved in
corruption or abuses of power.
While oversight on what can and cannot be shown on TV is necessary Cheap Darian
Stewart Jersey , the depiction of "bad" people as human beings is actually
in line with the government's principles that Chinese works of art should be
"close to reality, close to life and close to the public," while also being
"meaningful, artistic and entertaining at the same time."
The regulation of artistic works requires a gentle hand. If there are too many regulations and rules to follow, this will tie the hands of creatives and
producers and leave them with no choice but to make the same shows over and over
again.
In order to establish an environment of creativity Cheap
Brandon McManus Jersey , the first thing that is required is space - the
space to create and the space to succeed or fail within the market on one's own.
If China can accomplish this, then we are sure to see even more outstanding
works such as In the Name of People be produced in the future.
