This paper considered chinese mainstream drama that had been appreciated by taking over traditional socialism's political-oriented through drama content analysis, in the Post-socialism era as market-oriented new social environment. first, through the theoretical consideration, we have seen what is mainstream, and we verified the early mainstream had a political nature, but can not be defined only by political drama while Chinese society is changing. Therefore, in China today mainstream drama can not only be defined as political pole, but mainstream drama survive in the china market, where the commercial drama adapted to the market system itself, and a variety of social needs, to give a new social environment, the transition to the popularization of them survive in the China market, where the commercial drama. From social needs side, Politics still can not be ruled out. This can break the policy, propaganda and social edification, the works in accordance with the purpose of each mainstream drama appear after reform and opening up until the 2000s,. The mainstream drama has been protect the traditional Chinese culture. With magnetization and external opening, the global culture with a variety of ideologies entered and made the traditional Chinese culture in crisis. In this regards, those dramas which to find the roots of the traditional culture were very popular in the early 80s. Lastly, mainstream drama also protec nation’s pride as an extension of the traditional cultural patron. The generation born after the reform and opening up, is exposed to a foreign culture from an early age can have a relatively weak national identity. Mainstream drama showed the greatness of traditional Chinese culture and the fierce life of the previous generation not lose its identity as Chinese. With these social needs the drama mainstream try to survive in the market system, with the transition to the popularization, which focus on the narrative strategy. First, rather than to deliver the message directly emphasize on the political ethics, and the second, the commoners, rather than producing the myth of the hero, at the core of the narrative strategy, third, mainstream drama attempts to harmonize with popular drama. These changed narrative strategies made an effort to become cultural product to increase the realism of the work through daily life material and consensus of opinion.
