Why It Matters

视频平台近期推出多项付费增值服务,引发观众关于会员权益与收费透明度的持续讨论。

中新网北京11月13日电(记者 刘越)“吃相难看,正片内容被做成收费彩蛋,导致剧情不连贯,买了SVIP还得买彩蛋!”

近期,古装剧《嫁金钗》的多名观众在社交平台发出这样的吐槽。有观众直言,以前是看广告才能看正片,现在是买了会员,还得另外花钱把剧情拼完整。

这让人困惑的“拼图”式观剧体验,究竟从何而来?

买了SVIP,也只能看“拼好剧”?

争议的起点,是一款售价18元的“尊享彩蛋包”。

《嫁金钗》由田曦薇、闫桉主演,讲述真假千金替嫁、宅斗复仇的故事,开播后热度迅速破万。视频平台优酷在VIP、SVIP会员可观看全剧的基础上,为这部热播剧额外推出了“尊享彩蛋包”,包含20余条陆续解锁的内容。据优酷页面,彩蛋每条时长从几十秒到3分多钟不等,个别彩蛋“仅28秒”。

让人意外的是,这些被称作“彩蛋”的片段,并非幕后花絮、主演采访或番外小剧场,而是剧情片段。对此,许多网友表示“荒谬”。

“第一次遇到彩蛋从正片里抠出来的,荒谬!”

“难怪很多剧情都不连贯,看不懂。”

“彩蛋不应该是额外制作的吗?还收18元?”

“正片里都是广告,彩蛋里才有正片……”

记者梳理发现,这些“彩蛋”并非孤立,不少内容与主线人物动机、情节转折存在关联。譬如第五集彩蛋涉及男主为女主盖披风的情节,是两人情感推进的铺垫;第十集彩蛋包含女主向他人请教律法的内容,交代了后续的能力来源。观众看正片还在纳闷:女主怎么突然什么都懂了?结果相关铺垫出现在另付费的彩蛋里。

更有甚者,还有“大变活人”的魔幻操作。因“四叔父”这一角色在正片中几乎从未正式出现,其登场、介绍魏府人物关系的戏份,都被放进了付费彩蛋,导致不少观众误以为该角色已去世多年,“四叔母”在守寡。

不仅如此,网友还指出了更“劝退”的操作细节——即便花钱购买了全套付费彩蛋,平台也不会将这些关键剧情片段自动衔接、嵌入剧集对应的播放位置,需要观众自行脑内“拼凑”。VIP买的是观看资格,SVIP买的是观看速度,如今连“剧情完整度”也要另外付费,让观众花钱看“拼好剧”,属实有些离谱。

为此,中新网记者致电优酷平台客服。工作人员回应称,正片与电视台播放的内容一致,付费彩蛋属于正片之外的点播内容,不是对正片的拆分。

有观众指出,若不购买彩蛋,就会影响对正片逻辑和完整性的理解,是否存在双方对“彩蛋”定义的分歧?对此,客服表示该问题已记录,将反馈相关团队。而对于已购彩蛋能否退款、通过何种渠道退款,其并未给出明确答复,表示需记录并反馈专人处理。

记者还询问,平台如何保障会员完整观看全片的权益?客服未作正面答复,表示将反馈专人跟进核实。

一边是平台强调“非正片拆分”,一边是观众反复反馈“看不懂、接不上”,各执一词下,质疑显然难以平息。

律师解读:若属实,商家可能承担违约责任

回到关键问题:观众反馈的“彩蛋情节”究竟算正片还是额外内容,有无认定标准?

为此,中新网记者采访了北京星权律师事务所何鑫颠律师。何鑫颠表示,“彩蛋”在通常消费认知中,指的是不影响主线理解的番外、花絮。如果所谓“彩蛋”承担了正片应有的叙事功能,比如交代人物关系、行为动机或情节铺垫,那么它就不能仅凭“命名”被认定为额外内容。

她强调,“彩蛋情节”的判断标准不在于平台对内容如何命名。主要在于不观看该内容是否影响理解主线剧情、普通观众是否会误读主线剧情。若其实际内容承载了正片的叙事功能,平台以“彩蛋”之名指称,可能使消费者对商品性质产生错误认识,涉嫌构成误导性宣传。

“观众购买会员时,与平台之间形成的是网络服务合同关系,其合同对价指向的是平台应当提供‘完整、连贯剧集’的观影服务。如果平台将本属于正片的片段截取出来,破坏剧情的完整性与连贯性,影响观众理解主线剧情,该行为涉嫌构成对会员服务合同的不完全履行,可能需承担违约责任。”

同时,何鑫颠还表示,平台可以依法提供附加付费内容,但新增收费项目应当提前显著说明,且不能把已有会员权益拆开重复收费。平台如把完整剧集拆开,让观众为关键片段再次付费,该行为亦涉嫌违背诚信原则和公平原则。

“对观众而言,若认为权益受损,可先向平台投诉,要求说明彩蛋性质、提供完整内容或处理退款;协商未果,可通过12315平台或文化监管部门投诉。”

从“超前点播”到如今的“付费彩蛋”,观众的耐心正在被一次次新的收费名目消耗。《嫁金钗》的热度,本该是平台与观众双赢的契机,而非被拆解成不同价位的商品。买了SVIP,为何还看不完整一部剧?这一追问,或许值得各方深思。

Open Questions

  • 优酷后续是否会对《嫁金钗》彩蛋争议进行调整或退款处理?
