2010has been regarded as the “first year of web drama”,and withthe SARFT’s combat against the infringement of internet videosunfolding,the oringinal web drama is drawing more and more publicattention. However,due to socio-psychology,internet culture,capital,premature industry chain,internet technologies and other factors,thenew-born web drama develops unbalancedly, rendering remarkbalepost-morden features. its decentralized narrative structure,symboliccharacters and “kuso-style” aesthetics shows a deconstructionalperspective on the narrative model of traditional tv program.As the theoretical basis of Postmodern Thought, deconstructionismadvocates the destruction of all existing structures and rules,as well asdeconstruction center and authorities. But it is important to note thatwhen the web drama deconstructed the traditional narrative mode,itcaused a new narrative structure full of shatter and nihility has beenbuiltit,and it also made itself fall into a paradox. Fragmented narrativestructure obstructed the story to be told as a whole and destoryed thesoul of the drama. The creation mode of symbolic character made thecharacters turn into flat and comic figures and made human subjectivitydissolve. Aesthetic style of “kuso” which breaked traditional aestheticstandards brought about an aesthetic perspective of niche, and ti can’t beaccepted by public. There is no doubt that all these factors are fatal injuries of the network made drama nowadays. We all know the spirit ofpost-modern is a fight against the imperfect order today,and hope to getpluralism and equality through rebel. Whenever a traditional narrativemode is broked,a new scattered narrative mode will be setted up,it justfrom one unidirection to another. Not only the pluralism and equalitycan’t be made but brought us endless plane and nothingness. After beingdeconstructed, we can’t see storyline, emotion and nous, Logicalrelationship,beauty of artistic conception,and only jokes used to attractaudience are left.It gets away from the original intention of resistance,after it fightsagainst the old form,and caughted in the quagmire of Paradox. It is theliving situation of Chinese network-made drama,perhaps it is a commonproblem of Chinese Internet culture currently. Althought comedy candraw attention in a short term,but without highlights to retain audience,the network made drama will come up against a dead end.
