In the turbulent world of cross talk, every legend is accompanied by unknown secrets and grudges.
Today, let us clear away the layers of fog and delve into the story between Hou Yaohua and Guo Degang, which is constantly being cut and confused.
And all this suddenly surfaced again due to Yang Yi’s wife’s unexpected voice, causing an uproar!
Hou Yaohua and Guo Degang, the names of two master figures, always go hand in hand, but they always seem to be separated by an invisible veil.
Their relationship is sometimes interpreted by the outside world as a close relationship between master and disciple, and sometimes it is speculated as an undercurrent.
Now, a long-lasting past event has finally emerged with the courage of Yang Yi’s wife to speak out.
Guo Degang was born in Hongqiao District, Tianjin in 1973.
When I was a child, I was a very eloquent child.
It is said that he can talk at 8 months old. A 2-year-old child can read clearly with a newspaper.
In 1979, Guo Degang began his academic journey. He followed Gao Xiangkai to learn storytelling.
In 1981, Guo Degang began to learn cross talk, and then learned Xihe drum from Wang Tianyu, an old artist.
In 1988, Guo Degang was admitted to the Art Troupe of the Beijing Federation of Trade Unions.
Guo Degang had just worked in the troupe for a year. Because the troupe stopped daily performance activities, he had nothing to do and returned to his hometown in Tianjin. During the
period, Guo Degang followed a small theater troupe in the suburbs of Tianjin and began to perform everywhere.
In 1998, Guo Degang gathered old folk opera actors from Tianjin (Tian Lihe, Jin Wensheng, etc.) in Beijing and performed a crosstalk performance at the Zhonghe Theater in Dashilan, Beijing, under the name of "Beijing Crosstalk Conference" .
The "Beijing Crosstalk Conference" is actually the original prototype of the current "Deyun Society".
In 2003, the cross talk "Hello, Beijing" collaborated by Guo Degang and Yu Qian won the special award from the organizing committee.
On June 8, 2004, Guo Degang successfully became a disciple of cross talk master Hou Yaowen.
Since then, Guo Degang has established a firm foothold in Beijing. At the same time, he also changed the name of the previous "Beijing Crosstalk Conference" to "Deyun Club".
On October 23, Guo Degang began to lead the team members of "Deyun Club" to perform cross talk at the "Tianqiao Teahouse" in Beijing.
On October 30, the audience heard a different cross talk recording on the Beijing literary and art radio program "Happy Teahouse", which felt very novel and interesting.
At this time, Guo Degang's cross talk has entered the hearts of the audience. In the days after
, "Deyun Club" Guo Degang gradually gained some status in the hearts of the audience.
In the cross talk circle, there are private voices saying that Guo Degang exaggerated "Deyun Club" and betrayed "Houmen Cross Talk".
The next thing happened, pushing this matter to the forefront.
As soon as this sentence was said, netizens exploded.
Although Hou Yaohua did not clearly say who this person was, everyone knew that the person he was talking about was Guo Degang.
Because Hou Yaohua has more than once said in some variety shows that Guo Degang betrayed his master and was ungrateful; he said that he had rarely paid homage to Hou Yaowen since Hou Yaowen's death.
Regarding this matter, Guo Degang himself said that he did not go to worship his master mainly because he did not want to have any unpleasantness with Hou Yaohua.
As a crosstalk actor, Guo Degang is not very merciful in his speech. Some of the things they don't like may appear in their programs.
For example: in 2018, in Guo Degang's cross talk "This Guo, Lan Can't Live", "I don't accept female apprentices because I have no place to buy you a bag!" As soon as this sentence was said, netizens immediately got it , isn’t this talking about Hou Yaohua giving bags to his female apprentices.
As we all know, Hou Yaohua accepted a female apprentice named Anna Jin. It can be said that Hou Yaohua loves this apprentice extremely much. He and Anna Jin have even posted their matching rings, and he has all kinds of bags.
himself played so "lovingly", no wonder Guo Degang satirized him.
To say that Hou Yaohua has a big problem with Guo Degang, it must be the inheritance of his younger brother Hou Yaowen.
In 2007, Hou Yaowen, a cross talk master of a generation, suddenly suffered a heart attack at his home in Rose Garden, Shahe, Changping District. After emergency treatment for several hours, he still passed away.
Because Hou Yaowen had a sudden illness, there were no funeral arrangements at all.
Hou Yaowen and his two wives were divorced, and his two daughters lived with their wives. When their daughters got the news and came over, Hou Yaowen's house and other inheritance were inherited by Hou Yaohua.
As Hou Yaowen's apprentice, Guo Degang felt that Hou Yaohua was bullying Hou Yaowen's daughter too much.
So, he helped Hou Yaowen's daughter (Hou Zan) hire a lawyer to help get Hou Yaowen's inheritance back, and Guo Degang also helped pay off the later loan of the Rose Garden Villa.
In this regard, some people say that Guo Degang is nosy; others say that Guo Degang did the right thing and safeguarded the rights of his master's children.
Of course, the most dissatisfied person is Hou Yaohua. The fat in his mouth is not eaten in his stomach, which would drive anyone crazy.
In any case, what Guo Degang did shattered the rumors that Hou Yaohua said before that Guo Degang was disrespectful to his master, and also made netizens severely despise Hou Yaohua's character.
In fact, only people close to the story know the details of these things.
Therefore, people are looking forward to the revelation of the dusty past.
It turns out that it was Yang Yi's wife who accidentally revealed it during a party with her friends.
Yang Yike is very familiar with Guo Degang and Hou Yaohua. When Yang Yi was a child, he lived in Hou Yaowen's house for a long time. Even when he grew up and left the Hou family, he often had close contact with her, so of course he would be somewhat familiar with their family's affairs.
Therefore, the re-emergence of the inheritance case naturally aroused widespread public attention.
Fans of Guo Degang and supporters of Hou Yaohua launched fierce debates and mutual attacks on the Internet.
Fans of Guo Degang accuse Hou Yaohua of embezzling inheritance and bullying orphans and widows; while supporters of Hou Yaohua believe that Guo Degang is nosy and interferes in the internal affairs of the Hou family.
Guo Degang repeatedly ridiculed and satirized Hou Yaohua and his family during his cross talk performance, which further intensified the conflict between the two parties.
For example: "Do you know that the second uncle is running around, wearing sunglasses, and taking care of everything in the unit..." is a line in Guo Degang's cross talk. People who are familiar with Guo Degang know that he is satirizing Hou Yaohua.
Hou Yaohua also criticized Guo Degang's words, deeds and cross talk works in public many times. The grudge between the two gradually escalated into an open confrontation.
Some people lamented the missed master-disciple relationship between Hou Yaohua and Guo Degang, while others questioned whether there were more entangled interests hidden behind it.
For a time, public opinions arose, and voices from all sides intertwined, shocking the entire crosstalk circle.
The grievances between Hou Yaohua and Guo Degang are rooted in the different ways of handling Hou Yaowen's legacy and the intensification of the power struggle.
Hou Yaohua believes that as an elder brother, he has the right to dispose of his younger brother's inheritance; while Guo Degang believes that as an apprentice, he has the responsibility to protect the master's family and inheritance from infringement.
Although crosstalk actors such as Yang Yi and others tried to persuade the two parties to reconcile, due to the difficulty in reconciling the fundamental contradictions and the fueling of public opinion, the grievances between the two have not yet been completely resolved.
On the long and tortuous road of cross talk, the growth of every master is accompanied by countless challenges and hardships.
The feud between Hou Yaohua and Guo Degang may be just an episode on this road, but what it reflects is the inevitable conflict and integration in the inheritance and development of cross talk art.
The voice of Yang Yi's wife is more like a mirror, allowing us to get a glimpse of the reality and complexity hidden behind the glamor.
Now, with the passage of time, perhaps both of them can face the past with a more mature and tolerant attitude.
After all, the future of cross talk still needs them to work together to create it.
This grudge will eventually become a memorable story in the history of cross talk.
