The apprentice of "Country Love" and "Xu Accountant" once said in the live broadcast room, don't think he is too rich, because he has to pay back 5000 yuan of mortgage every month, which is very stressful. Other disciples also have similar spit.
Zhao Benshan's 64-year-old age was also pushed into a "scandal" by a female apprentice, which really responded to the classic line of her former golden partner, Grandma Baiyun: What is Yin if there is no scandal?
For a time, the Benshan Empire, which Zhao Benshan painstakingly managed for nearly 30 years, seemed to be heading for extinction and disintegration.
But from the perspective of Zhao Benshan himself, it seems that he is completely unaffected by outside rumors and remains as calm as Mount Tai. Some time ago, some netizens broke the news about a video, in which Zhao Benshan and his friends pushed a cup for a change and had a big feast. In the video, Mr. Benshan's face is rosy, and although his sideburns are white, his energy is not diminished. He is an old artist who has seen big waves.
Zhao Benshan lived for 2 1 year, from eating a hundred meals, performing in the street, to boarding the Spring Festival Evening, enjoying all the splendor and wealth, and also experienced a sharp decline, but finally landed safely. What storms are there today that deserve the frown of old artists? After all, in our common people's minds, when we mention Zhao Benshan, the first thing that comes to mind is his well-known classic sketches, which are all over the world. Based on his real strength, he gained great influence with his works with unique personal style. At the peak of this mountain for more than 20 years, it is no exaggeration to say that in the northeast, everyone loves Zhao Benshan. If you had said loudly at that time, I don't like Zhao Benshan, you would definitely be regarded as an alien in your life. Old people, children, men and women are eagerly looking forward to the appearance of Uncle Black Soil wearing a blue cloth hat on New Year's Eve. The appearance of Benshan will make viewers inside and outside the TV feel boiling.
So why did Zhao Benshan become a cultural symbol of Northeast China in its heyday? Why can a resounding slogan be circulated on the Internet: Go out of Shanhaiguan and find Zhao Benshan. The author thinks that Zhao Benshan is a performing artist, so the fundamental source of his great influence still lies in two words: works.
Zhao Benshan's works span the fields of film, television and sound, but his sketches are the most impressive, and Uncle Benshan is also known as the "king of sketches". At first glance, his sketches make people laugh. Over the years, they are still inexhaustible. The more they watch, the more they love them. They have stood the test of time. Why is his sketch so magical?
First, I have created too many classic works.
On the big stage of CCTV Spring Festival Evening, Zhao Benshan created too many classic works. Three whips, water delivery, uncle Niu's work, kidnapping, selling cars, not bad money ... every work is known to all ages. This uncle Northeast wearing a blue cloth hat flips and prances on this stage, as if the Monkey King had changed seventy-two times. Every year, he appears in a brand-new image. What remains unchanged is his infectious and intimate northeast accent and superb body language like Chaplin, which makes his sketch expression enter a realm, showing us what a real performing artist, ordinary actors and performers can't cross like the Great Rift Valley in East Africa.
The CCTV Spring Festival Evening of 1990-20 1 1 is the central stage, which shows his leadership. In this brilliant twenty-one years, he left too many popular works, and famous classic lines were circulated every year. Zhao Benshan's works are amazing. This magic is like a powerful magnet, which attracts audiences in Northeast China and even the whole country to stare at the screen every New Year's Eve. I believe that God in the sky can hear the laughter of all the people in China that night. This is the charm of Zhao Benshan, a real performing artist, walking out of the people and standing on the stage. He is the god of performance!
Second, the acting skills of entry, penetrating the appeal of time and space.
Let's start with an impressive clip. In the sketch "Heart Disease", Fan Wei performed a state of "smoking" of a person who won the lottery of 5 million, which made people laugh, because the performance was so vivid that it seemed that his whole body really collapsed and his soul flew away.
At the end of the sketch, Zhao Benshan, as a psychologist, even "smoked" after hearing Fan Wei's promise that "one of us is half". Zhao Benshan's state of "smoking" expressed the effect of "making the gods cry", which completely overshadowed Fan Wei. Fierce facial expressions and crazy body language, coupled with the strong sense of contrast brought by psychologists, directly enliven the image of "Zhao Dabao, a country doctor" and push the atmosphere at the end of the sketch to a climax. In the warm applause and cheers, the sketch came to a close.
This was just a surprise moment in Zhao Benshan's acting career, but it left a deep impression on me. It has been nearly twenty years now, and when I think of Zhao Benshan, I will still remember this scene in my mind. In Zhao Benshan's acting career, there are countless similar wonderful moments for the audience.
"I'm fake!"
When you hear this line, do you have such a 3D reverberation picture in your mind: a water delivery worker wearing an ill-fitting plaid suit, a blue cloth hat and a long brown glasses is full of alcohol, and the drunken pig kidney has five senses on his face, and his voice is long ~ he just knows what "fake" means, and he just understands that the mummy is lying in the pyramid, not "fake".
In people's minds, Zhao Benshan is the king of sketches and a master of comedy, which actually makes many people underestimate his acting skills. Especially in the form of sketches, he spent more than 20 minutes explaining the whole story, expressing the characters and being remembered by people. It can be said that his acting skills have been armed to the eyebrows. Only when the acting skills are exquisite and delicate can we have such exquisite deductive effects.
This kind of acting is not brought out. As the saying goes, "The blade comes from sharpening, and the plum blossom fragrance comes from bitter cold." Zhao Benshan came from humble origins. Since childhood, he and his blind uncle have been walking around the streets, visiting parks, visiting overpasses and watching night shows. I grew up eating hundreds of meals, getting in touch with people from all walks of life, taking a good look at people's eyebrows, tasting the world's coldness, and watching all kinds of things under the grass platform. In this process, I have accumulated very hard and valuable comedy practical experience. It can be said that incisive acting comes from the profound observation of all social strata and the hard work of carving taste. Zhao Benshan's life experience was integrated into his bone marrow and blood, which enabled him to have an explosive performance effect on the high-profile stage. It is a true reflection of "If you want to get ahead in front of others, you will suffer behind others".
Third, the concept of taking the masses as the center is manifested.
At about 20 10, there was a criticism of Zhao Benshan's performance style on the internet, led by some so-called experts and scholars in the literary and art circles, who openly published Zhao Benshan's works as "vulgar", "it doesn't hurt on stage" and "dog meat is not allowed to sit". However, Zhao Benshan's last appearance in the Spring Festival Evening was on 20 1 1 year. Today in 2022, 1 1 year has passed. What we see is that the popularity of the Spring Festival Gala is declining year by year, and the sketch performance is becoming more and more formal. Using tickling to stimulate the audience to laugh has become a common skill, making "embarrassment" a common skill. The slogan of the end of the performance is getting louder and louder ... people no longer have the expectation of the finale before zero. But around 11: 30 in the middle of the New Year's Eve, I miss that black uncle with a northeast accent and a standard pig waist face more and more.
Ordinary people hit experts and scholars in the face with actual reactions, and people like Zhao's style sketches. Whether he is vulgar or indecent, there is no doubt that the audience will feel happy when they see Zhao Benshan on the stage, even if he doesn't speak. This joy is real and cannot be brought by so-called "elegant" programs. With his own strength, Zhao Benshan brought the performance form of "sketch" to a new height in history. As the saying goes, we don't know who is swimming naked until the tide recedes. He has left the stage of the Spring Festival Evening 1 1 year, and his invincible legend is still circulating in the rivers and lakes of the Spring Festival Evening, forever. ......
Zhao Benshan has such a high position in the eyes of ordinary people, which is inseparable from his creative ideas: taking the masses as the center, truly expressing people's lives, and performing with a strong atmosphere of fireworks in the city. Whether performing ordinary people or grassroots cadres, people feel that he is not on the screen, but more like being by your side.
In an interview with Yang Lan in 2009, Zhao Benshan personally said: Some creators always want to express some noble themes and educate the audience by the way. But your sketch can't educate others. If sketching can educate people, what do you need in prison? Why don't you read more sketches? Making the audience happy is the biggest theme of the Spring Festival Evening sketch.
As a post-90s generation who loves Benshan's works, I think this passage by Zhao Benshan is the best interpretation of his personal creative ideas and expression techniques. Spring Festival Gala is a happy day for the whole family. Many vagrants have been wandering outside for a year. When they come home, they just want to feel the warmth of home and wash away the hard work of the past year. As the most popular program on the night of the Spring Festival, the Spring Festival Evening should meet the psychological needs of ordinary people and take creating happiness as the biggest theme. But the reality is just the opposite. On the night of family reunion, we have to endure preaching, slogan propaganda, embarrassing sketches and actors' unintentional performances. In this atmosphere, how can we not miss Zhao Benshan on the stage of the Spring Festival Evening and the endless joy he once brought us?
Zhao Benshan's words are also very convincing, and they are the heartfelt words of an old artist. After listening to it, people feel that it is two words: pleasant to hear, and it also answers what the northeast people often say: words are not rough. Yes, isn't his writing the same as his works? People with ulterior motives criticize "vulgarity" and "obscenity", but it contains the most appropriate theme on the people's stage: happiness, which is spontaneously revealed and displayed, unlike today's sketch, as if holding your ear and telling you: I want you to know loudly that this is right and that is wrong! The effect is just the opposite, ridiculous!
Although Benshan's sketches did not deliberately tell people how to do it, people saw the simplicity and loveliness of the working people from the red sorghum model team and felt the bitter irony of whipping the reality from the three whips. From Selling Kidnappers and Selling Cars, we can see various problems of "fooling" and "cheating" in society at that time. It's not easy to see all kinds of single mothers from "Water Deliverer" ... Is the sketch of Benshan really not educational? Then why can we be moved by our hearts besides being happy? Most importantly, Benshan has no intention at all. These are the natural cores in the works, but they are far more widely spread and have greater influence than some so-called sketches with high themes. Are you really ashamed of those experts and scholars who criticized Zhao Benshan?
The people of Sri Lanka have nothing left but the yellow crane terrace next to the yellow crane.
In the foreseeable future, Zhao Benshan will not be on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala again, and his artistic mission in the Spring Festival Gala is completely over. In recent years, his film and television works are far behind his modern people. I have to feel: veterans don't die, they just disappear gradually. This time, Zhao Benshan really "closed" and lived a leisurely life as an old man in Northeast China. But as an artist, his artistic symbols have been engraved in the minds of ordinary people and left a deep impression on the entertainment history of China. In a word, Lao Zhao's life is worth it!
