Chinanews client, Beijing, June 14th (Reporter Yuan Xiuyue) Recently, netizens invented a new term "dramatic anger syndrome", which means that because of the too many loopholes in the TV drama plot, the audience can't stand it and the audience is angry.

This term resonated with many netizens, and also cited a lot of "dramatically irritating" episodes of TV series.
The most mentioned are the descriptions of ordinary people's lives in many TV dramas.
No matter what family background and occupation the characters are, they always live in a clean and bright house, with bright clothes and beautiful makeup, plus filters that are too thick to see the pores.
For example, in a TV series, the heroine is in a difficult life and is often unemployed. She usually has to feed her aunt and grandmother, and her water bill is called for payment, but she lives in a hardcover three-bedroom house.

In a certain traversal drama, the heroine is set to be a small Beidiao, who has no money and power to enter the society, but can live in a large area of finely decorated loft and enjoy an open river-view bath tub.

In a certain youth idol drama, the protagonist is from a poor family, but still lives with his younger brother and sister in a two-bedroom and one-half hall with a semi-open balcony, wearing designer clothes and elegant hairstyles.

In a certain urban drama, the heroine is an ordinary person working hard in a big city, a real estate agency who has just entered the workplace, but can carry a bag of tens of thousands of yuan and wear clothes of a few thousand yuan.
The manifestation of financial constraints is self-heating hot pot worth tens of yuan.

Such examples are not uncommon in domestic dramas.
As if the role setting in the play does not exist, there is no breath of life at all, everything seems to be made to be pleasing to the eye.
In particular, some youth idol dramas are keen to sprinkle sugar on the audience, but are sloppy in details.
For many viewers, this has become one of the many reasons for abandoning the show.
The term "dramatic anger syndrome" actually reflects the common problem of domestic dramas-suspension.
This kind of suspension is not only manifested in the lack of detail, but also in the suspension of the plot.
The most common is the routineization of bridge sections, such as "the hero and the hero accidentally live together."
In a recent military drama, the protagonist’s mother urged his son to marry him by directly identifying a tenant for his son, who is the heroine, and the two people who did not know each other started living together.

If we say that in the early years, everyone was still a little new to this kind of setting, then it is no surprise now, because domestic TV dramas are about to use this stalk.
In order to connect the characters, many TV series forcibly let the male and female protagonists meet and live together.
In a certain urban drama, the heroine is falsely accused of being sent to the police station, and the hero who is completely stranger releases her on bail and takes her into his home.
The heroine broke into the actor's room on the first night because she was a little scared to sleep alone.
Later, the kind-hearted male protagonist drew up a contract, and the two began to "contract cohabitation."

In many TV dramas, there will also be such plots. The heroine has no place to live or is driven out by the landlord, and often can rent luxury apartments of "local tyrant" friends at low prices.

The levitation of some TV series is also manifested in the detachment from reality.
For example, in a certain drama, the son brought his Russian wife back home, but he came back from the high-speed rail station, and he didn't bring a single piece of luggage.

There are also some details, such as packing your luggage and putting your suitcase on the bed, putting on makeup and applying a facial mask, you can park in the blink of an eye and so on.
In life dramas, these can be tolerated, but in workplace dramas, being out of the logic of reality often makes many industry dramas "painting a tiger is not an anti-dog".
Telling the real estate agency's drama, not only does not dig out the unknown stories of the industry, but spends a lot of time on solving the customer's personal problems, and being evaluated as selling a house is like doing charity.
It clearly tells about entrepreneurship in the IT industry, but the plot hardly talks about the development process, but uses a large length to describe the emotional story of the protagonist, deducing a big business war love and hatred.
The description of the public relations industry is too exaggerated, turning public relations into a detective. The protagonist seems to be mad and cool and capable, but in fact it is far from the real professional public relations person.
Only the coat of the industry drama, but the content is suspended outside the real life, industry insiders call it "pseudo-realism."
Industry dramas have also become the shortcomings of well-known domestic dramas. Observing the industry dramas in recent years, although the male and female protagonists are very eye-catching, the cast is also very strong, the production investment is high, but they have not been recognized by the audience, and many Douban scores are not rated. More than 5 points.

Some people have analyzed that "pseudo-realism" is because the creators did not thoroughly understand life and did not get close to life.
Many of today's film and television creations start from the perspective of business, not from the perspective of life.
There are also experts who have similar views, "pseudo-realism," which either regards film and television works as propaganda materials, or as commodities, or not as spiritual products.
Behind this is the attitude of the creator.
Going back to "drama anger syndrome", some people think that TV dramas need artistic means to allow the audience to have room for imagination. Netizens are asking for full blame.
In fact, "drama anger syndrome" reflects the audience's dissatisfaction with the creator's laziness. The plot setting can be suspended, but if the details are suspended everywhere, can it still be convincing?
Isn't watching a drama a game of finding the difference?
Levitation is not unsolvable. In the past two years, there have been many well-made modern dramas, such as "The Hidden Corner", "Ordinary Glory", "Blame You Too Beautiful" and so on.
Beijing Normal University professor and screenwriter Liang Zhenhua once analyzed that the sense of suspension comes from the lack of maturity of the plot and the relative monotony of emotional expression.
Therefore, when creating, we should try our best to exclude relatively inferior elements from the story, and to downgrade this one-sided and monotonous emotional way.
Every creator does not live in a vacuum, no matter what type of drama, the ultimate point is the current life.
The wind of suspension, it's time for an instant, don't let domestic dramas end up on the suspension.
