" market needs a process of acceptance." The relevant person in charge of the Nanjing Deyun News Agency told the Modern Express reporter, "Since the "Happy Comedian" variety show was broadcast, the audience has gradually increased."

Even during the epidemic, offline performances have been stopped, but the popularity of Deyun Club has not declined. The comic dialogue garden is empty and busy with variety shows. According to incomplete statistics, there are about 20 variety shows performed by Deyun Club actors in 2020. Fans of

tend to be "fan circle", "the little girl's eyes have nothing to do with art" "

" Liu Xiaoting, love you! "Qin Xiaoxian, the future can be expected!" The reporter also learned that during the epidemic, Nanjing Deyun The walls around the theater are filled with messages written by "Deyun Girls", densely packed with love. On September 5, the official Weibo of Nanjing Deyun News Agency stated that the walls have been repainted immediately after opening the box. "Don’t think that if you engrave your beloved corner on the wall, he will remember you. The only thing that remembers you is Camera." The reporter of

Modern Express found that many of the "famous characters" of Deyun Club have long been different from the cross talk actors in everyone's impression, but are closer to the idol "idol". They have fixed fan groups distributed on social networks on various platforms. Cross talk actor Qin Xiaoxian’s Weibo super chat has exceeded 5.46 billion readings and 326,000 related posts. Cross talk actor Zhang Yunlei's Weibo super-chat reading volume reached 31.13 billion, related posts 2.163 million, even higher than many first-line traffic stars.

cross talk embraces traffic, how far can the idol route go?

When a crosstalk actor took the idol route, Nanjing crosstalker Qian Lin was a little worried. "Although many crosstalk actors are taking advantage of the current flow,How long can this wave last? My attitude is pessimistic. Because traffic is virtual, only works are real. "In Qian Lin's view, some particularly popular cross talks on the Internet do not really represent the present. Whether it is content, literature, art, or ideological height, compared with some old artists before, they are far behind.

" The Southern Crosstalk is not the same as the Northern Crosstalk. "Qian Lin told reporters that the Confucius Temple is one of the three birthplaces of cross talk. It is the same name as Beijing's "Tianqiao" and Tianjin's "Three Regards." The audience in Nanjing is not like the audience in the northern region, who like to think about the taste of witty words, so the jokes will be edited. It is more dense and the burden is more brittle. Many northern crosstalk groups come to Nanjing to "Nuggets", and they must learn to "live the dots." However, young audiences don't seem to care about this anymore. "

Professor Miao Huaiming, the deputy dean and professor of the Faculty of Letters, Nanjing University, has another view on the "fan circle" of cross talk. He said that if cross talk is to develop, it must conform to the trend of the times. A bad thing. Because "Crosstalk is not only a traditional national art, but also a leisure way for contemporary young people to release pressure. The idol group has made cross talk younger, and there has been a very popular scene, which just shows that traditional art still has vitality and there is still a lot of room for development. "
