asks a question first: When you buy a ticket to go to the cross talk club, do you go for a certain cross talk star, or for listening to cross talk?
believes that most lovers of cross talk must go for the cross talk, but there are also quite a few people who go for the star of the cross talk, which is what they like to talk about.
As the fan circle enters the cross talk industry, this phenomenon of "following celebrities and not competing with each other" is increasing. Some practitioners are not surprised, while some cross talk actors are not used to it.
On the last day of 2022, Zheng Hao, a veteran actor of Deyun Society, wrote angrily denouncing this phenomenon of "following stars and not cross talk". The cause of the
incident was that Zheng Hao posted on social media a list of performances by the joint performance team of the Deyun Society at the Deyun Society Theater in Xinjiekou.
Let’s take a closer look at this program list. The actors who are more familiar to the audience include Zheng Hao, Zhao Nan, Li Yunjie and Ning Yunxiang. Among them, Zheng Hao and Zhao Nan save money every day. Changqing was in charge of the second, and Ning Yunxiang and his partner Sun Xiaoyao were in charge of the second when Li Yunjie was away.
would like to say that the overall arrangement of this program list is relatively balanced. There are newcomers and familiar faces among the actors, especially the second and last ones are actors with a relatively solid level of cross talk, and three consecutive Today's performance, the jokes are basically the same. Perhaps the only shortcoming of
is that there are no high-traffic celebrities from Deyun Club in the program list, such as Guo Qilin, Yue Yunpeng, Zhang Yunlei, Meng Hetang, and Zhang Helun. As for Guo Degang and Yu Qian, let alone think about it.
It’s impossible to not have traffic stars. On the one hand, it’s the end of the year. Stars with high traffic like Yue Yunpeng are busy with movies, satellite TV Spring Festival Gala, and variety shows. On the other hand, there are many small theaters in Deyun Club, not everyone Small theaters can arrange traffic stars.
Of course, there may be another important factor. The income of performances in small cross talk theaters is relatively low, and the appearance fees of those high-traffic stars are relatively high. If they don't pay this little money, even if they have the time, they won't go to the small theater to talk about cross talk easily. For example, Guo Degang, he has no variety shows, movies, and Spring Festival Gala invitations at the end of the year. Wouldn’t he rather stay at home than go to small theaters?
Because there are no traffic stars, some netizens complained in the comment section of Zheng Haofa's program list: "Why are they all unknown juniors? Who do you look down on?", "Is there anyone else to watch?".
also had an even more exaggerated comment: "If you give me 120 yuan, I don't even bother to listen. What's so good about a group of strangers standing there talking?"
may have angered Zheng Hao because the comments made by netizens were too harsh. He first used his trumpet "Deyun Society Zheng Hao" (the big name is "Zheng Hao") to reply in the comment area.
Afterwards, maybe he still didn’t find it very satisfying, so Zheng Hao simply used a large size to directly rebuke the fans who complained, his attitude and wording were quite angry, and he said bluntly what’s so crazy about these cross talk listeners:
posted a program list, I saw a lot of people who dislike the lack of celebrities and look down on newcomers. Talking about cross talk is very down-to-earth, but listening to cross talk is so crazy? Every meal in your family is a state banquet dish, or you wouldn't eat it? You don't go out without driving a Rolls Royce? You can't live without a manor nobility? It’s all just living with wages and salaries. When you go to the supermarket, you can ask your children and daughter-in-law to take whatever you want. Earn money and live quietly, madness is a manifestation of mental illness.
What should Zheng Hao think of Zheng Hao's angry rebuke?
The author believes that this has to be seen from three aspects:
1, Zheng Hao's anger is justified.
If you listen to cross talk, you don’t really have to listen to celebrities. There are many non-famous cross talk artists who are also very good in cross talk.
The author once went to the small theater of Deyun Club. Guo Qilin was the one who saved the bottom, and Kong Yunlong was the second one. But in the six-part cross talk, it was really not the two of them who spoke the best, but the second pair and the second pair. Three pairs (really not very famous, can't remember what they are called), and the live effect is also the best of those two pairs, while Guo Qilin is so-so.
If you go to a teahouse in Tianjin, you may be able to hear a better cross talk than a traffic star for a little money.
In addition,No cross talk actor has become a famous cross talk actor just after entering the industry. They all came from the unknown generation of cross talk newcomers. Didn’t Guo Degang be picked up by the audience slowly? What are you doing.
2. Fans chasing stars is also a normal phenomenon.
In the old society, there was a phenomenon of trolling in cross talk circles, not only in cross talk circles, but this phenomenon is even more serious in the Peking Opera circle. In the new society, traffic stars have become a group of people who are extremely valued by movies, TV dramas, variety shows, and even the Spring Festival Gala. With these people, there is no need to worry about traffic, and behind traffic is money, who can't live with money.
Some fans who went to listen to the cross talk for traffic stars naturally couldn't get interested when they saw the playlist released by Zheng Hao. This is also a normal phenomenon, and Zheng Hao should understand.
3, Deyun Society grows melons, sows melons, sows beans, and beans
Although the cross talk industry has always had the phenomenon of "holding the horns", famous cross talk actors have box office appeal, but in the cross talk industry, most cross talk lovers and veterans Listeners pay more attention to "jobs".
is the same joke, the "job" of some crosstalk stars is not necessarily better than that of some newcomers, after all, there are specialties in the art industry, so many crosstalk jokes, no matter how good the star is, it is impossible to get all of them, such as "Stealing the Axe" "This paragraph, Guo Degang is not as good as Zheng Hao. When
first became famous in Deyun Society, the audience really praised Guo Degang on the one hand, and other cross talk actors at the same time, such as He Yunwei, Cao Yunjin and Pan Yunxia, who were still very young at the time, and some of their cross talks would also be popular at the box office. After Guo Degang became famous, he went to small theaters less and less often. He Yunwei, Li Jing, Cao Yunjin and Liu Yuntian saved the bottom line in many cases, and they were also full of seats and popular.
However, during the development process, Deyun Club has gradually chosen to take the path of "fan circle". In Guo Degang's words, it eliminates some audiences with a higher level of appreciation.
Coincidentally, the part of the audience that was "eliminated" was precisely the group of people who went to Deyun Club for listening to cross talk, and the fans who replaced these audiences more often went to Deyun Club for cross talk traffic stars .
Moreover, because some fan circle audiences yelled and made noise in the small theater to disrupt the order of the performance, many audiences who wanted to listen to cross talk consciously avoided pitfalls and stopped patronizing Deyun Club. Circled.
That is to say, the current phenomenon of "going to stars but not cross talk" in Deyun Club is itself the result that Deyun Club wants.
Zheng Hao, a veteran of the Deyun Club, has been in the Deyun Club for so many years. Although he is well-known and hard-working, sometimes he is not as popular as some traffic stars in the box office. It is inevitable to have some small emotions in desperation.
However, since Deyun Club's cross talk has chosen to take the road of fandom, as a loyal fan of Guo Degang, Zheng Hao must understand, and can only understand.
