"Golden Night Mansion 2" plot broadcast more than half, the drama since the broadcast of the topic continues, whether it is the plot or the characters on the Internet have a lot of discussion, such as the earlier broadcast of the fourth unit "Sister" has attracted a lot of controversy, was complained of discrimination, but also rose to the international level.
In the unit "Sister", Louisa, a Filipino maid played by Huang Wanhua, naturally attracted attention from the outside world when she first appeared in TVB dramas, and her acting skills were also appreciated a lot.
It is reported that she spent three months to practice Filipino, both in terms of language and voice are like Filipino maids, but because in order to get close to the role, she used cosmetics to blacken her face and hands and feet during filming, which caused controversy, and some people complained that TVB had discrimination and insults in this behavior.
TVB also issued a statement of apology, pointing out that the story told by the story of the domestic helper and the employer, played by actress Huang Wanhua as the domestic helper Louisa, she used her professional and superb acting skills to successfully portray this role, and finally TVB stressed that this move did not disrespect or discriminate against any nationality, and apologized to anyone who may be affected.
Subsequently, TVB also removed the content of episodes 7 and 8 related to "Jinxiao Building 2" on its own video platform, saying that the content needed to be corrected and re-listed after the correction, but it has not yet been listed.
Earlier, TVB executive Zeng Zhiwei responded when he attended the event and was interviewed because of the needs of the plot, which was a misunderstanding. He stressed that the character needs to be Filipino, but the character needs to be white at the back of the plot, so it is difficult. Because you can't find a Filipino to paint her, you can only find a female artist to paint black, and then turn white.
Finally, Zeng Zhiwei also made a metaphor that he wanted to make a movie, if we need to do aliens, we can't find aliens to do, we need to play aliens, then does this mean discriminating against aliens? Therefore, this time is purely a plot need, and there is no insult or discrimination.
Today (April 20th), Huang Wanhua, the actress of Louisa, as the heroine of the event, publicly apologized in English on social networks, saying that in the past few days, she took the time to deal with emotions and reflections, and also heard the voices of many different people around her, and sincerely apologized to all those who were negatively affected by the unit story "Sister" in "Golden Night Building 2".
Huang Wanhua said that through this incident, she let herself know that doing her best to analyze and play a role to complete the storyline is only part of the work, and she really did not disrespect race or discrimination, please forgive my mistake: "This is definitely a challenging experience for the art course, reflecting social attitudes, and public discussion helps to improve everyone's vigilance on the topic." 」 I'm really sorry that my lack of sensitivity has caused offense and harm, and I will try harder in the future to use my performances for the benefit of society. ”
After the post was released, many people expressed their support for Huang Wanhua, saying that she performed well and did not vilify the Filipinos at all, asking her not to take this matter to heart and look forward to her future performances! There are also people who think that this time is purely fussy, the finger bar is really everywhere, she is not wrong and does not need to apologize, and the unit of "Sister" is the best plot at present. What do you think about that?
