李国煌是新加坡华语演艺圈的资深演员，在电视、电影领域都表现出色，演艺生涯主要扮演喜剧角色，对他的评鉴往往是从影视文学的角度。然而，从性别研究的角度，分析他饰演的男性角色，这方面的学术研究目前欠缺。 本文旨在填补这些研究领域的空白，将通过对两部电影《大英雄·小男人》和《男儿王》进行文本细读和对比，分析男主角的人物形象以及与其他男性角色的互动，探讨所呈现的男性气质的演变趋势。本文也将通过男性气质、性别表演的理论，揭示当代新加坡华语电影中男性气质的复杂性和多元性，并主张李国煌饰演的角色含有一种本地化的“屌丝”男性气质：除了有经济压力与情感挫折、对成功的渴望与努力、面临社会边缘化与具有从属性，他的角色有顶尖的变通能力。 Mark Lee is a seasoned actor in Singapore's Chinese-language entertainment industry, renowned for his outstanding performances in both television and film. Throughout his career, he has predominantly played comedic roles, and evaluations of his work have largely focused on cinematic and literary perspectives. However, there is a notable lack of academic research analysing the male characters he portrays from a gender studies standpoint. This paper aims to address these research gaps by conducting a close textual analysis and comparison of two films, Petaling Street Warriors and Number 1, to examine the portrayal of male protagonists and their interactions with other male characters. Through this analysis, the paper explores the evolving trends of masculinity depicted in these films. Utilising theories of masculinity and gender performativity, it reveals the complexity and diversity of contemporary masculinity in Singaporean Chinese-language cinema. Furthermore, this paper argues that the characters portrayed by Mark Lee embody a localised form of “diaosi” (loser) masculinity. In addition to facing economic pressures, emotional setbacks, a desire for success, and efforts to achieve it, as well as social marginalisation and subordination, his characters exhibit exceptional adaptability.
