Uncle Cao Can of the little trumpet
Mr. Cao Can has created many vivid artistic images on the drama stage and in film and television dramas, and Mr. Cao Can is familiar to more people, or he broadcasts a popular novel for listeners through the radio. He is good at using his voice characteristics and professional expertise to combine recitation and traditional storytelling to create his own style of acting.
Since the 1950s, as the first announcer of the "Little Horn" program of the Central People's Radio, Mr. Cao Can, the "Story Uncle", has left hundreds of stories for big friends and children in "Little Horn", and his unique and kind voice and colorful narration have become unforgettable memories of that era along with the growth of generations. The image of "Uncle Cao Can" has also penetrated into the hearts of children. When the "little horn" was popular, the children would hold the radio and wait for him to tell the story on time, and his kind and gentle voice would stop tricking even the naughty and difficult children and listen attentively...
He said that someone once ran over to shake hands with great excitement, "Oh, Teacher Cao, I grew up listening to your story, you know, what is the biggest benefit I have from listening to your story?" I don't do anything bad until now. ”
The children's Grandpa Cao Can
In 1999, Mr. Cao Can founded the Cao Can Art School in the ancient rare years. The core curriculum offered by Cao Can Art School is recitation art training, which aims to cultivate children's awareness and ability to speak, dare to speak, and be able to speak. Over the years, Mr. Cao Can's recitation style has been deeply loved by people.
In 2015, the "Cao Can Cup" youth recitation display activity named after Mr. Cao Can was born, which built an authoritative and professional language exchange display platform for young children and young people, and has been successfully held for seven sessions so far. Mr. Cao Can has visited the "Cao Can Cup" activity site many times and guided the contestants from the perspectives of selection of works and recitation skills. For the children, this always amiable grandfather with glasses brought them too much warmth and encouragement, and his brilliant and bright personality has also influenced generations of children.
He said that it was the innocence of the children who infected him and made him always have an ageless heart.
Our old roses
For recitation, Mr. Cao Can has always adhered to the principle of "Taoism is natural, returning to the truth", and on the road of language art, he has met many like-minded artist friends.
In 1986, Mr. Cao Can served as the president of the Recitation Research Association of Beijing Linguistic Society, vigorously promoted the construction and development of folk recitation groups, successively served as the honorary leader of more than 100 folk recitation groups, personally guided the rehearsal and performance of folk recitation groups, and played a positive role in promoting the art of recitation into grass-roots organizations such as communities, parks, and schools, benefiting countless recitation enthusiasts.
The friends of "Cao Can Cup" and the partners of "Cao Family Class" are like "family" to Mr. Cao Can. Everyone is contributing to the "Cao Can" brand, and every step is firmly moving forward under the guidance of the "Cao Can Spirit".
The red rose is Mr. Cao Can's favorite flower, because it symbolizes love, bravery and radiance, so "Old Rose" has also become Mr. Cao Can's unchanging screen name.
Our "old rose" is the same, always wearing red, always so energetic and energetic. Calligraphy, travel, playing mahjong are his hobbies, online shopping, recording and editing are all handy for him.
He said that although I am old, I have love in my heart, I am still romantic, and now the rose is fragrant...
The Scythians are gone, and the words are still in the ears
The first time I walked into the live room, a 5-minute little story, I recorded it for a whole hour. At that time, they always couldn't find a sense of object, so they gathered the children in the yard and told them stories according to the script, but they didn't like to listen. So I threw away the manuscript and told them in my own words, and they loved to listen. Slowly change, you change the feeling.
Not only to complete the task, but also to complete the task well, to work hard, to play the best level, not to cope, let alone fool. Only when you walk the brain, the heart, and the heart, the audience can recognize it.
From my youth to now, before every performance on stage, I have to go through the work in detail, even if I have already memorized it. This is called "dismantling and washing again and again"
Recitation is all about speaking well. We hold the "Cao Can Cup" to let the children improve their language expression ability and carry forward the traditional culture of our motherland.
Our country has come from poverty and weakness, and it is not easy. Every time I go to the supermarket and look at all kinds of items, I feel that my life is really good now, and it is really good to do Chinese...
It is said that people should be healthy when they are old, but I think they still have to do things, and if they don't do things, they are waiting for death. Especially people like us who are a bit cultured always feel that we should still do something and can't sit idle all day.
When people come, it is simple, why don't they have a beautiful scenery when they leave? I don't want to add trouble to others, but life and death are big, I want to tell everyone: Cao Can is gone, Cao Can is gone, otherwise how can others know, maybe send you WeChat!
Next to Mr. Cao Can's tombstone is a mulberry tree, a location he personally chose. He said that he was like a mulberry tree, and the mulberry tree devoted his life to others and never showed off himself. The same is true of Mr. Cao Can's life, proud of Sang and dedicated his life.
When the stories in the airwaves gradually fade in color, when "Uncle Cao Can" becomes "Grandpa Cao Can", his pile of past events, a period of time, his experience of fighting against illness, the mentality of looking down on life and death, the tenacious and indomitable vitality, and the sincere heart of art will touch generations of people...
Forever miss "Uncle Cao Can"
