"Bright Daily Cultural Review Weekly Art Review""Doctor Benevolence" "Moving Life" "Obstetrician" "Heart Art" "Love Obstetrics and Gynecology" "Obstetrician", to the recently broadcast "Young Doctor" "Me and Me", although the number of Chinese medical drama, but each appearance can stand out from many types of dramas, with topical and ideological caused widespread public opinion.This type of TV drama originated in the United States, generally to the hospital as the creative background, to case diagnosis and treatment as the framework, the plot wandered around the two ends of life, the world and all kinds of people, such as all appear, to examine the cold and warm, interpretation of the world, show sad and happy, let the audience from the meaning of life and the value of existenceIn 1994, the American TV series "The Story of the Emergency Room" aired, the medical drama fully opened the "Profeional and Peronal", that is, the doctor's professional experience and personal life as the two main line of parallel performance of the creative model, the subsequent American drama "The Intern Grey", the Japanese drama "White Tower" and the Korean drama "Fantastic Hand" and a large number of domestic medical dramas have followed this creative thinking.However, due to the production level and creative ideas and other influences, some domestic medical dramas in the medical "specialization" level often presents a state of malnutrition, many contrary to medical common sense of the plot is often the audience spit slotIn recent years, creators have become aware of the problem and are beginning to work hard to fix itWhether it is the "Young Doctor" drama group for a few months of experience life, or "Heart" screenwriter 66 in the hospital undercover "wind", all reflect seditability and efforts, to a professional quality of the type of drama creation has taken a solid step forwardOn the other hand, medical drama in the human nature of the presentation of the level is also some partial food, love dose surplus, power as a partial side, affection as a tonic, friendship can only be regarded as a drug guide, some plays even jumped out of the main line of medical drama, become a love drama under the white python packageIn fact, the performance of the doctor's love story is not wrong, but if you can at the same time show its concern for family and friendship, can make the character shaping more full, the work more emotional powerThere are also some plays to the doctor's power struggle as a narrative focus, continue to torture and perspective of the dark side of human nature, showing a too gloomy temperament, but also contrary to the display of the mainstream value orientation of the doctor's benevolenceIt can be seen that domestic medical dramas in the type of creation also need to be alert to all kinds of undesirable tendencies, sustained force, in order to mature.Not only in the aspect of artistic creation, medical drama also has many difficulties to pay attention to in the presentation of ideological connotationDeath from illness is a major event in the lives of ordinary people, while medical problemist is a social problem related to the national economy and people's livelihoodHowever, due to the imbalance of medical resources in our country, as well as the medical system is not perfect, on the one hand, leading to the people to see a doctor difficult, expensive to see a doctor, and even the phenomenon of poverty due to illness, on the other hand, the doctor's professional pressure is too great, the doctor-patient relationship is difficult to coordinate, so the broadcast of medical drama can always trigger the whole people to participate in the discussionAmong them, the doctor-patient relationship is the biggest challenge of medical drama, both should have a warm song on the doctor's wonderful hand back to spring, but also have a strong condemnation of the life of the unscrupulous doctor, not only to show the deep sympathy for the patients who have suffered unfair treatment, but also to express a strong rebuke to individual families and professional doctorsIf unilaterally stand at which angle, are not objective and fair enough, a little careless will be easy to be questionedIn addition, the medical drama on paternity testing, hospice care, organ donation and other hot spots, but also caused a lot of ethical debate and moral considerations In fact, good medical drama should not stop at presenting these topics simply, but also touch on the deeper thinking behind these topics - the crisis of trust between people facing contemporary society, and the diagnosis of other ills in society For example, "Young Doctor" in the plot of the promotion of the time to systematically implant on employment, emotion, education and other social topics of thinking.　　Visible, medical drama can not only show the doctor's life and doctor-patient relationship, it can also be a thermometer to measure emotions, analysis of human nature's perspective, cure the soul of the scalpel We should be brave to respond to all kinds of hot topics, pay attention to stitch the psychological distance between doctors and patients, soas people's anxiety, and inject positive energy into social psychology It is gratifying to note that some of the recently emerging works have already made achievements, such as "The Heart" "Young Doctor" "I and me" and so on, so that trust, hope and love become a good medicine, in the tense medical treatment and soothing daily life between the consultation of society, the pulse of life, for the future of medical drama creation pointed out the direction.　　(Yang Hongtao is an associate professor in the School of Drama, Film and Television, China Media University)
