张竹坡 / Zhang Zhupo

张竹坡 is the [[JinPingMei|《金瓶梅》]] commentator cited in 番外 15:半拿铁讲《金瓶梅》啦,而且还是绿色的 for the “第一奇书非淫书论” reception line. The episode uses him to support its Clean Edition Classic Reading frame: the novel’s literary value can be argued through structure, characterization, and social observation rather than through explicit sexual passages.

His role in the source is not merely a historical citation. Zhang Zhupo lets the episode show that defending [[JinPingMei|《金瓶梅》]] from a flat erotic label is itself an old reading problem, not only a modern podcast choice. That places him near Genre Literary Legitimacy / 类型文学正名 and Classic Reading Complexity.
