In the final episode of the fifth season of "Happy Comedians", which aired on the evening of April 7, Ye Fengchun, a disciple of Teacher Chen Peisi, won the overall championship of this season with mime. Zhang Helun won the second place. Zhou Yunpeng from the Liaoning Folk Art Troupe won the third place. Guo Yang Guo Liang won the fourth place in the fifth season. Jin Jing, Liu Shengying and Wu Bi also eventually reached the top five.
Judging from the real-time ratings data provided by Kuyun real-time, the evening program began at 9:10 p.m., and the ratings started at 0.5111% slightly (the opening of the Xiao Shenlong talk show, not used as the content of the game), and the peak rating was 0.7805%, which was obtained by Zhou Yunpeng's team. After Zhou Yunpeng, the ratings began to decline sharply. The five groups of players who took the stage that night were the Jin Jing team, the Guo Yang Guo Liang team, the Zhou Yunpeng team, the Zhang Helun team and the Ye Fengchun team.
The comprehensive ratings of the comedians in the fifth season are not ideal, and the gap with previous seasons is more obvious. Such an old comedy variety show has begun to "struggle" at the level of not being able to break the ratings of 1, which is somewhat regrettable. However, on the night of the finals, the contestants in each group basically showed their own relatively good level, and the quality of some works was indeed remarkable. We may wish to analyze them one by one according to the ranking.
Fifth place, Jin Jing, Liu Shengying and Wu Bi combined. The work they brought with them was "Good Luck Family". The comedic effect of this skit is very good. The works brought by Jin Jing and others seem to have the nonsense of Shanghai burlesque, but at the same time they have tears, so that everyone can see the joys and sorrows of an ordinary family in laughter. Regarding laughter and tears, many readers have doubts. Actually, what exactly is true comedy? It is to crush the unpleasant life and present it in a joyful way. Teacher Fan Wei's "Blessed Ears" is such a representative. The vast majority of excellent comedy artists pursue this "high theme" of expressing the suffering of life in a comedic way.
The most important reason why Jin Jing and others' "Good Luck Family" can be called excellent is that they really have insight into the living conditions of ordinary people, and we are so happy and happy. Therefore, many viewers can see their own joys and sorrows in the works of Jin Jing and others. And Jin Jing, an actress, belongs to an artist with a very rich expression, and her light should not be limited to the stage of comedy variety shows, and in the follow-up, it may also shine on the stage of film and television. As for Wu Pi, this is an actor who has a thousand autumns in his heart, and his talent may not be limited to comedy. This group of comedy artists, the follow-up is very worth looking forward to.
The fourth place, Guo Yang Guo Liang group, brought the work "Gong and Drum Noisy Square". Guo Yang Guo Liang's works are representatives of the positive energy of the typical main theme. This time, "Gong and Drum Noisy Square" begins with a blind old man who wants to go to Tiananmen Square to see the national flag raised, Guo Yang, Guo Liang and others pretend to bring the old man to Tiananmen Square to create a lot of laughter and baggage, but in the end it ends with the soldiers of the national flag squad really appearing. This work can be said to have both laughter and main theme.
Many comedy works, once they want to present positive energy, they are only left with the accumulation of praise, and it is difficult to form a baggage with laughter. The reason why Guo Liang and Guo Liang's works are considered to be the best among the main theme comedy works is that they can put positive energy things in the final flip part, so that more laughs can meet the basic artistic requirements of comedy. For Guo Yang Guo Liang, they are too suitable for stage performances of large-scale gala events.
The third place, Zhou Yunpeng and Wang Long and others brought "Relatives Are Coming". This work begins with a misunderstanding of the family, so that the misunderstandings are one after another, and finally form a very strong comedic effect, but in the end, the plot content is corrected, forming a praise for the father's love, and it is also of relatively good quality in the works of the Liaoning Folk Art Troupe. From the perspective of pure comedy script creation, "Here Comes the Family" is a very high-quality work, the setting of each misunderstanding is clever and natural, and the progression of misunderstanding is also reasonable. Uncle Benshan's team is good at creating laughter in misunderstandings.
As for Zhou Yunpeng's performance, there are currently two very different voices in online reviews. There are likes and dislikes. From my personal point of view, Zhou Yunpeng still has some of uncle Benshan's style in this "Family Is Coming". Zhou Yunpeng, the actor himself, carries a kind of "humility", and he can be strong and bad, so the bridge section he performs will often make the audience have a taste of not entering the play. On the contrary, this kind of non-entry into the drama can form an aesthetic effect of "staying out of the matter" in many works. This actor can not play the role of Taiping, he needs some negative roles, more can set off the characteristics of acting.
The second place was won by Zhang Helun's team, and the work that appeared on stage was "I Want Fire". For the comedians of this season, in terms of cross-talk works, Jin Fei and Chen Xi are very worthy of recognition in terms of basic skills and the completeness of their works. Zhang Helun's talent in cross-talk is less than his talent in film and television performance. In Guo Degang's "NineteenTh Generation of ancestors", Zhang Helun's role is actually the most characteristic acting skill in the whole movie. This actor, if he can play some funny roles in film and television dramas in the future, may have unexpected effects.
The first prize was won by Ye Fengchun's team for his work "Funny Age". Personally, I think it deserves it! Looking at all of Ye Fengchun's works on the stage of the fifth season of comedians, in fact, they all uphold the theme of positive energy of a small person. His works are good at showing the life of ordinary low-level people who believe in faith, and in this life, he finds the shining points on the spiritual level of small people. In terms of the use of certain comedic elements, the Ye Fengchun team and the Jin Jing team are the same.
Ye Fengchun himself also has the learning skills of Shanghai burlesque, and later went to the theater of Teacher Chen Peisi to study briefly, and can be regarded as one of Teacher Chen's students. Teacher Chen Peisi's "eating noodles" on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala that year was a large-scale mime performance to the Chinese audience. For Ye Fengchun, what he really pays tribute to should be Chaplin. Although Ye Fengchun carries a certain temperament of Mr. Bean, his artistic style and even many performances are tribute to Chaplin's films.
For the art of comedy, maintaining the creative mentality of a low-level little person, satirizing the ugly, and praising the goodness of human nature is the real original intention. Comedy artists such as Ye Fengchun, Jin Jing, Guo Yang Guo Liang, Zhou Yunpeng and their teams are very worthy of recognition.
