Recently, Roarlang Studio issued a notice, saying that it has suffered major infringements jointly committed by Jiang Guangtao and others since 2021, and announced the permanent termination of cooperation with it. Subsequently, terms such as "Jiang Guangtao is suspected of criminal offenses" appeared on the hot search list, which continued to cause heated discussions among netizens.

Jiang Guangtao - This name may not be familiar to you, but you should have heard his voice more or less. Because his career almost coincides with the development of the domestic dubbing industry.

He entered the industry just in time for the end of the translation era. In 1999, he became the voice actor of Jack in "Titanic", and since then he has contributed to many popular dramas at that time: Hua Wujian in the film and television drama "Little Fish and Flowers Without Defects", Lin Chen in "Langya List", Deer God in the anime "Big Fish and Begonia", Shizun in "Jiang Ziya", Jiang Yunfan in the game "The Legend of Sword and Fairy V", Ye Xuan in "Painted Traveler in Time and Space" and so on.

Up to now, according to incomplete statistics, Jiang Guangtao has participated in 190 TV series, 71 movies, 54 cartoons, 47 radio dramas, as well as 21 games, 4 documentaries, and 6 audio books.

Voice actors were originally only behind-the-scenes staff, but with the process of idolization of voice actors, voice actors have their own exclusive fan groups, that is, they have the so-called ability to "carry dramas".

Regrettably, voice actor "collapse" incidents occur from time to time.

As early as 2020, the domestic dubbing circle frequently "collapsed". For example, Li Yuantao, who voiced Lu Shen, one of the male protagonists in Tencent's popular mobile game "Love of Light and Night", was exposed to deliberately close to the character in real life after eating the character dividend, thereby "sleeping powder, PUA, cold violence", and maintaining improper relationships with many female fans.

"From the perspective of the masses, voice actors have a certain influence and appeal, and as public figures, they should assume corresponding responsibilities. From the perspective of voice actors, some people do not feel that they are public figures, but just ordinary migrant workers doing dubbing work, and their words and deeds should not be subject to higher moral constraints and restrictions outside the law. There is a certain discrepancy between the voice actor's identity perception and the masses, which has led to the intensification of the 'house collapse' incident. Yu Feng, a researcher at the Strategic Research Center for Legislation and Rule of Law at East China Normal University, said.

Yu Feng explained that voice actors, as the name suggests, are people engaged in dubbing performances. All those who use their skills to engage in theatrical performance work, whether in front of the stage or behind the scenes, are artists, and voice actors are artists who exist behind the scenes, and are also subject to relevant regulations such as the Measures for the Self-Discipline Management of Entertainers in the Performance Industry implemented by the China Performance Industry Association in March 2021.

Some netizens also questioned whether the nearly 400 film and television drama characters dubbed by Jiang Guangtao would be "linked" removed because of this?

In this regard, Yu Feng believes that literary and artistic works, including film and television, are not only messengers for spreading culture, but also carriers for cultural inheritance. If a film and television work with huge costs and a large number of participants is removed just because one of the voice actors violates the criminal law, it is a huge loss to economic value and social and cultural value. For audiovisual works in which Jiang Guangtao participates in dubbing, the relevant competent departments may notify the audiovisual work production unit involved to replace Jiang Guangtao's voice with other voice actors or AI voices using modern science and technology, so as to avoid all works being taken off the shelves, bringing losses of cultural welfare to society and major economic benefits to relevant companies.

In view of the continuous problem of artists violating the law and unethics, Yu Feng suggested that the entertainment industry accelerate the establishment of an assessment mechanism for the cultivation of artists' moral literacy and a screening and elimination mechanism, and set entry limits and regulations for elimination through a combination of "positive list" and "negative list".

Wu Chunyong, executive deputy secretary-general and chief technical expert of the Star Endorsement Regulation Committee of the Beijing Advertising Association, proposed that we can try to promote entertainers to add an economically binding clause in the process of cooperation with film and television program producers and investors, such as producers or investors adding a "tightening curse" when signing cooperation agreements with more important cast members, that is, due to the negative impact of the actor's own behavior on the work, or will bear a huge amount of compensation, the purpose is to allow artists to have a long-term impact on their public image, Personal branding is responsible.
