When he was poor, Shen Teng wanted Xie Na to help him and let him last time in "Happy Base Camp", but Xie Na replied to him: "Roll, my own position is not yet solid!" ”
Speaking of the origin of Shen Teng and Kuaiben, it is also necessary to start with happy twist.
Happy Twist was founded in 2003, the first play called "Want to Eat Twist Now Screw You" starred He Jiong, Xie Na, Yu Na and others, and Shen Teng was only a small supporting role on the stage.
The play was performed 40 times, and 40 were also lost, and the most tragic one was only 7 people who bought tickets, when the producer was discouraged and decided to refund the ticket and strike.
In the heavy snow, the 6 leaders of the company stood at the entrance of the theater, they reverently apologized to the audience for the refund, while the young actor Shen Teng stood in the corner and watched this sad scene.
After the lesson of ticket refund, the twist team has become more refined in creation and performance, represented by Shen Teng, Peng Damo and others, who usually take 9 months to create a script.
After the completion of the script, the rehearsal performance was rehearsed three months in advance, the pursuit of high quality, excellence, so Happy Twist only launched one original work every year, such as "Twist 3 People Drifting in the Rivers and Lakes", "Sweet and Salty Matching" and so on.
With high-quality works, Happy Twist gradually became famous in stage plays, and even The director of the Spring Festival Gala, Ha Wen, threw an olive branch to them.
In 2013, Shen Teng, Ma Li, Du Xiaoyu, Allen, Wang Ning, Chang Yuan and others formed a small creative team, and they rehearsed and modified the sketch day and night, while Ma Li and Wang Ning were the busiest.
The two recorded the program "Seven Brothers of Melons" in the morning, rehearsed "Charlotte Troubles" in the afternoon and evening, and rushed to the CCTV film and television home after ten o'clock at night to create a Spring Festival Gala sketch, and the daily sleep time did not exceed three hours.
A group of people did not live up to their efforts, and Happy Twist handed over a beautiful report card. "Today's Happiness", "Skynet Recovery", "Can't Help" and other sketches, deeply loved by the audience, through the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, Happy Twist became famous in one fell swoop.
When the actors became popular, their path was not as good as they thought.
"Because I might be so nice!"
Wang Ning said that this is the reason why he did not appear in "Charlotte Troubles", and this may also be the reason why he left Happy Twist.
In 2015, the film version of "Charlotte Troubles" pushed "Hong Kong 囧" to get 1.4 billion at the box office, becoming the most eye-catching dark horse movie in the National Day file. Shen Teng, Ma Li, Allen and other major actors have become popular all over the country overnight, successfully crossing the border from the sketch circle to the film circle.
Everyone was celebrating with joy, but Wang Ning was secretly hurt.
Wang Ningben was a member of the big family of "Charlotte Troubles", and in the drama version, he has been playing the role of Yuan Hua for several years.
However, when the film version began filming, Yin Zheng played Yuan Hua for Wang Ning, and Wang Ning also missed the opportunity to become popular.
Wang Ning explained that because he was too good, he did not act, and some netizens broke the news that it was the investor who insisted on replacing Wang Ning with Yin Zheng.
This is the first time that the Happy Twist team has had a dispute with capital, and Ma Li is the second person to suffer.
In March 2017, the movie "Capital Successor" held a film conference to determine that the male and female protagonists were played by Shen Tengmali.
A few months later, "The Richest Man in Xihong" was officially announced, but the heroine became Song Yunhua and did not see Ma Li's figure.
Director Yan Fei explained the reason for the change of role: "The plot must be Taiwanese"
Before the film started shooting, the script was suddenly changed, and the starring role was changed, which did not convince the public, for a time, Song Yunhua brought funds into the group and squeezed out the news of Ma Li.
After being replaced by Song Yunhua, Ma Li sent a sad dynamic: "Everything is the best arrangement." After that, Ma Li did not do any more publicity for "The Richest Man in Xihong".
What is the truth of these two corner changes? Only the main creative team knows best, it is worth mentioning that the cost of making a movie is as little as tens of millions, more than hundreds of millions, such a huge amount of money, mainly rely on investors, in this process, the director, screenwriter, actor's right to speak will naturally be weakened, in the film circle, before the start of filming, it is also common to change actors.
Wang Ning was also discouraged because of the change of roles, and soon after he quit Happy Twist and fought alone in the show business circle.
The remaining old members such as Shen Teng, Ma Li, Allen and others have always adhered to the stage of "twist", for them, staying in happy twist is not only a benefit, but also a sentiment.
Shen Teng, Du Xiaoyu, Song Yang, Wei Xiang and others met at the end of their lives, and in the face of difficulties, they often helped and supported each other.
When Wei Xiang was young, he often had conflicts with the company's senior management, and he recalled: "Once I was almost expelled, it was because Shen Teng was there that I was left behind. ”
After the film "Charlotte Troubles" broke out of the plagiarism storm, Shen Teng stood up to support the director, "If there is a similarity, it is purely coincidental." ”
Shen Teng: "I know too well the creative process of the two directors, it is very difficult, so plagiarism is absolutely impossible." ”
Ma Li and Allen were originally partners, they performed in the small theater, and then entered the happy twist team in the midst of yin and yang, and combined with Shen Teng.
Shen Teng praised Ma Li: "It is difficult to find a good partner" "Ma Li and I act in a complementary way, I acting belongs to the Yan'er fan, and Ma Li's explosiveness is particularly strong, and the sense of rhythm is particularly good." ”
From preparing for the Spring Festival Gala sketches to preparing for "Happy Comedians", Ma Li and Shen Teng have cooperated in many classic sketches, such as "Tomorrow's Happiness 2" and "Can't Help", etc., the image of the two is also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and even some viewers mistakenly think that they are husband and wife.
And the real good friend is a sense of proportion, Ma Li has repeatedly clarified the relationship between the two in public, and also became a good friend with Wang Qi, she said: "In this world, I feel that I am Wang Qi's trustworthy woman, that is, I and Shen Teng will not have anything, so I and Wang Qi have nothing to talk about." ”
Shen Teng talked about Ma Li's feelings and said: "We have been cooperating for a long time, but the two people close the door to live a life, and I can't interject." ”
Today, Happy Twist has been established for 19 years, and this group of old friends who have known each other for 19 years have participated in the variety show "Twist Special Happy". They said that there is no show and no script, and the funny depends on the tacit understanding of friends.
In the game session, Ma Li and Shen Teng sang Teng'er's songs at the same time, with synchronous expressions and voices, and tacit understanding.
Ma Li performed dry eyes, Shen Teng immediately answered the mouth, "You know that horses never close their eyes when they sleep', singing a harmony, as if saying crosstalk.
From 2003 to 2022, this group of happy twists and turns have walked together for 19 years, 19 years of ups and downs, they have hugged each other for warmth, they have also experienced parting and dispersion, encountered questions and insults, changed the stage and state of life, and what has not changed is the insistence on comedy and the love of each other.
