June 23, 2007,
Guo Degang is participating in the program on Anhui Satellite TV,
Half an hour before he and Yu Qian took the stage,
Suddenly received a sudden myocardial infarction from master Hou Yaowen, and unfortunately died at the age of 59 when the rescue was ineffective.
Guo Degang's heart instantly became extremely heavy and depressed,
Eager to rush back to Beijing immediately, to do filial piety for the master,
But I thought that I couldn't put pigeons on Anhui Satellite TV,
So I endured the grief and participated in the show,
In the program group, Guo Degang, who spent seconds like a year,
Counting the time minute by minute, I finally finished recording the show,
He immediately got on the latest plane and flew back to Beijing.
I thought of all the good things that the master had for himself when he was alive.
How could I not have imagined that the master would suddenly be separated forever,
Unconsciously, the tears have blurred the eyes,
On the day of the memorial service,
Everyone present came to Hou Yaowen's body in order to bow deeply and put a bouquet of flowers.
Only Guo Degang came to the master's body and did not want to leave for a long time.
With tears on his face, he clutched the coffin with both hands, and finally under the persuasion of the staff,
Only gradually left the master's coffin,
But what Guo Degang did not expect was that
His own master Hou Yaowen, known as one of the "Top Ten Laughing Stars in The Country",
A famous cross-talk actor with the title of "Virtue and Art Double Xin" artist,
After death, still can not be buried with peace of mind,
On the one hand is the master's memorial service, and on the other hand, there is the upcoming property dispute war,
Hou Yaowen may not have thought of it,
His own daughter and his own brother,
One day it will be because of his own property to Bo Gongtang,
Let Hou Yaowen, who was under the Nine Springs, finally be able to enter the ground after a full four years.
What's going on here?
01
Hou Yaowen was born a year before the founding of New China,
That is, in 1948,
His father was all too familiar to everyone.
It was Hou Baolin, a famous cross-talk master at that time,
Hou Yaowen, who has been influenced by art since childhood,
At the age of 12, he took the stage and performed the cross-talk "Drunk",
At first, Hou Baolin did not want Hou Yaowen to be a cross-talk actor.
Because he knows how hard it is to be a cross-talk actor.
His second son Hou Yaohua has become a cross-talk actor,
I don't want my young son to be so tired in the future,
But Hou Yaowen's love for crosstalk is no less than that of his father and brother.
At that time, Hou Yaowen gave himself a stage name called "Little Adi", and spent several years on stage with this stage name.
Also accumulated some popularity,
Seeing that Hou Yaowen was so persistent about crosstalk, Hou Baolin finally let go of his hand and let him go.
In 1965, after Hou Yaowen graduated from junior high school, he did not continue to go to high school.
Through their own efforts, they were admitted to the China Railway Cultural and Labor Troupe,
And met his future old partner Shi Fukuan,
After the two became partners together, they created and starred in many excellent cross-talk performances.
In 1984, the two co-starred in "Sweet and Sour Live Fish", which won two first prizes for creation and performance.
Later, he starred in excellent works such as "Spitting Lotus Flowers", "Speaking etiquette", "Hou Da Understand" and so on.
Slowly became well known to the audience, became an indispensable figure in the cross-talk industry,
As his reputation grows, so does his prestige,
Hou Yaowen also began to accept apprentices and pass on his life's work.
One of the apprentices was Guo Degang, the now-famous Deyun Society's grand master.
When Guo Degang was not famous, he ran into walls everywhere.
Even Yang Zhigang, who once called Guo Degang his apprentice, learned everything from himself.
At that time, none of them reached out to Guo Degang to help.
In 2003, Guo Degang participated in a cross-talk competition program, when Hou Yaowen was sitting on the judges under the stage.
After watching Guo Degang's performance, Hou Yaowen praised the people next to him for Guo Degang's state, feeling, and voice in all aspects, the only fly in the ointment was that he was a little short.
But Hou Yaowen already had the idea of taking Guo Degang as an apprentice at this time.
It's just that the two are not very familiar,
Yu Qian, who happened to be partnered with Guo Degang, was the apprentice of Hou Yaowen's old partner Shi Fukuan.
So one day Hou Yaowen told Yu Qian that he was going to take a child as an apprentice.
Let Yu Qian ask Guo Degang if he is willing to worship the master, and when the time comes, he will accept it as his apprentice.
When Guo Degang learned of this news, he was very excited, and Guo Degang at that time was like a feather.
Floating uncertainly, allowing others to bully, now with their own worship of the master, with the care of the master, their own path is more and more smooth,
Although the opposition was very loud at that time, even Hou Yaowen's other disciples advised the master to be cautious.
But Hou Yaowen still firmly accepted Guo Degang as an apprentice,
Because he said: "Crosstalk is not to exclude each other, but to integrate with each other, to give children a bowl of rice to eat." ”
So on June 18, 2004, Guo Degang officially entered Hou Yaowen's door.
The feelings of the master and apprentice have also become deeper and deeper since then,
In a later interview, Guo Degang also said that the only person he had officially visited was Hou Yaowen, a master.
The master had given himself great courage to go on.
I also know more about some of the master's family affairs in the past.
02
Hou Yaowen, who was working in the Railway Literary troupe at that time, met a dancer named Liu Yan.
It is the two people in adolescence, who soon fell in love,
The two who have been in love for many years, in the year when Hou Yaowen was 31 years old, joined hands and entered the palace of marriage.
A year later, the love crystallization of the two ushered in,
They gave birth to a cute baby girl named Hou Zhan,
The arrival of the daughter made the whole family very happy,
But Hou Yaowen, who is busy with work, rarely has time to go home.
Therefore, it is difficult to feel this joy with his family, and he rarely helps in the usual care of his daughter.
Due to the long-term gathering of less and more, Hou Yaowen and his wife Liu Yan have a gap,
The feelings of the two people also slowly faded,
In the year when his daughter was ten years old, Hou Yaowen and his wife divorced, and the daughter was taken care of by his ex-wife.
At that time, Hou Zhan was still young and did not understand what divorce was.
But since then, it has been more difficult for me to see my father again.
More is the mother's complaint all day, and the cynicism of the neighbors,
At school, her classmates also bullied her as a child without a father.
In this way, Hou Zhan, who has not felt his father's love since he was a child, is very aggrieved in his heart.
But at that time, Hou Zhan did not have a grudge against his father,
She would often go to see her father's performances.
In her heart, she is very eager to get the attention and love of her father,
In Hou Zhan's memory, he once came home from school with his mother, and happened to meet his father who came to see him.
At that time, Hou Yaowen's face was full of self-blame and guilt, and he went forward to touch Hou Zhan's head.
Holding her hand, there are a thousand words in my heart, but I don't know where to start,
Before he could speak, Hou Zhan's mother pulled up her daughter and walked back.
Hou Zhan wanted to break free of her mother's hand and ask her father why he didn't come to see him.
But his strength is too small, he can't break free from his mother,
Since then, Hou Zhan has hardly seen his father again.
But after three years, Hou Zhan's miss for his father was no longer there, more than resentment.
In 1993, major news rumors spread that the 45-year-old Hou Yaowen was going to marry yuan yin, an actor who was 20 years younger than himself.
The two actually met in 1990.
At that time, Hou Yaowen starred in the film and television drama "Special Police" half of it,
The crew suddenly wanted to change the heroine, so Yuan Yin, who graduated from Nortel at the time, was selected.
In the plot, Yuan Yin is a female model who loves Hou Yaowen,
In real life, the two also fell in love because of the drama and slowly walked together,
Although Yuan Yin's parents thought that the age difference between the two was too large and it was not suitable to be together,
But Yuan Yin still firmly married Hou Yaowen,
In the fifth year after their marriage, the two gave birth to a daughter named Youniu,
When Hou Yaowen, who has passed more than half a hundred, has another daughter, the mood is particularly joyful,
Usually, as long as I have time, I will go home to accompany you,
For the girl, Hou Yaowen can't let go of it, and loves it in every way.
It is like doubling the father's love that was not given to the eldest daughter Hou Zhan to repay it to his younger daughter,
But this is not fair to Hou Zhan,
Ever since Hou Zhan learned that his father had remarried and had children,
In my heart, I no longer expect my father to come back, but more resentment,
Never again contact his father,
Hou Yaowen, whose relationship with his eldest daughter became stiff, did not live a happy life for several years.
He was given a colored hat by his wife Yuan Yin.
03
Hou Yaowen, who was in middle age at the time, was also in an upward period of career.
Usually, I will often be busy until late,
However, his wife, for a long time, could not bear the loneliness,
Unconsciously, he got along with Dai Zhicheng privately,
In the cross-talk generation, Hou Yaowen is Dai Zhicheng's uncle,
At that time, the two families lived close together, and Dai Zhicheng was also a person who married and had children.
Hou Yaowen, who trusts him, is busy with work when he is on a business trip,
And entrusted his wife and daughter to his care,
In the end, I didn't expect that my master and nephew had actually kidnapped my wife.
Finally, in 2004, Hou Yaowen divorced his wife Yuan Yin.
The little daughter of the girl was under the management of Yuan Yin, and finally she did not fall behind anything, and she also made these family ugly,
At that time, Guo Degang knew about this matter and was upset with the master.
He also deliberately created a cross-talk "Wife and Son" to give the master a blow,
This experience deeply stung Hou Yaowen's heart, making him unable to get out of his grief for a long time.
Now that he has become single, Hou Yaowen no longer thinks about those love and love,
Instead, he concentrated on studying his own cross-talk, and when he was idle, he would ask his friends to visit his eldest daughter.
At this time, Hou Yaowen's guilt for his eldest daughter in his heart was getting heavier and heavier.
He has tried many times to reconcile the contradictions between the two, but in vain.
After three years, there was finally an opportunity for Hou Yaowen to get close to his daughter.
One day, Hou Yaowen was on a business trip abroad, and suddenly received a call from a friend.
Saying that his eldest daughter Hou Zhan was sick and hospitalized,
Anxious, Hou Yaowen first asked his friends to help take care of it, and immediately returned after his work.
After two or three days, Hou Zhan got better in the ward.
I got up and wanted to go out to breathe, and as soon as I opened the door, I saw my father, who was tired.
Falling asleep in a recliner,
Hou Zhan learned through the nurse that after his father rushed to the hospital after finishing his work,
Found that Hou Zhan had not woken up, afraid of disturbing her, he sat outside and accidentally fell asleep.
Hou Zhan looked at his father who was immediately close to Gu Rare in front of him, and experienced the betrayal of his second wife.
The face is full of vicissitudes and exhaustion,
I know in my heart how difficult it has been for him all these years.
Tears flowed out in an instant,
At the moment when Hou Yaowen opened his eyes,
Seeing her daughter Hou Zhen crying and hugging herself, she shouted, "Daddy."
These two words made Hou Yaowen wait for many years, and also made Hou Zhan endure for many years.
The two finally resolved all the misunderstandings and resentments at this moment,
In the days after Hou Zhan's hospitalization, Hou Yaowen accompanied her every day.
The relationship between father and daughter is also getting better and better,
At that time, the careful Hou Zhan knew that there was still a month or two to go before his father's birthday.
Carefully selected a pair of old Beijing cloth shoes for my father in advance, hoping to give them to my father when he had a birthday.
So he sold the lawsuit to Hou Yaowen, no matter how Hou Yaowen asked, Hou Zhan just wouldn't tell his father what the gift was.
But Hou Zhan probably couldn't have imagined that his father would never hear himself tell him what a gift it was.
Things came so suddenly, half a month before Hou Yaowen's birthday, he unfortunately died.
On June 23, 2007, Hou Zhan, who had not yet enjoyed his father's love, got bad news.
04
Under the grief, Hou Zhan, together with many relatives and friends, held a memorial service for his father.
Hou Zhan personally put the cloth shoes next to his father's body, looking at his father with tears, how could he not believe it.
At this time, hou Zhan, who was grieving, had to suppress his emotions first.
Save some effort for the property dispute that follows,
Hou Yaowen's sudden death was something that no one had expected.
Now that the building is empty, where should the property go,
At Hou Yaowen's memorial service, his second brother Hou Yaohua, who was Also Hou Yaowen's uncle,
Has been busy with various matters, receiving people who come to mourn,
But when everything is taken care of,
Hou Zhan did not know where all the money for the funeral had gone.
For Hou Yaowen's young daughter, she is only a teenager.
It is impossible to operate all this,
In the end, Hou Zhan and Hou Yaowen's younger daughter reached an agreement and sued their uncle in court.
demand that it return all property,
But Hou Yaohua said that he used all the money to help Hou Yaowen pay off his debts.
However, this statement was quickly overturned by Guo Degang.
Guo Degang once said on the Internet:
"My master has been mixed for so many years, is it not as much as the low-income workers?" Where are the celebrity calligraphy paintings I saw in my master's house? Where is the master's watch worth a million in drawers? ”
This question, I believe everyone can also understand one or two,
But compared with the share of money, the most important thing is the rose garden villa worth tens of millions of dollars that Hou Yaowen lived in when he was alive.
This villa has become an important legacy of Hou Yaowen,
Many people are looking at the tiger,
But after the last series of investigations, it was found that the villa was originally bought with a loan, and now there are more than 3 million left to pay off.
At this time, Hou Zhan's uncle quietly withdrew,
Let Hou Zhan and Yu Yu repay together,
But teenage girls certainly can't afford to repay the loan,
However, Hou Zhan was just an ordinary person, and he couldn't come up with so much money for a while.
At this time, the two sisters who were in trouble, no one came forward to take the handle,
In the end, Guo Degang couldn't look at it anymore, remembering the scenery before the master,
Sad in his heart, finally Guo Degang paid for it himself and spent 30 million yuan to buy the house.
The two sisters, who finally paid off their debts, took the remaining money for themselves.
At this point, it is the end,
And this smokeless war lasted for four full years before it ended.
The living cannot live in peace, and the dead cannot live with them,
Hou Yaowen was finally able to settle down in the fourth year of his death.
This family property storm case is almost known all over the city,
Finally, Guo Degang, who read the master-apprentice relationship, was kind enough to help,
He was also caught by someone, saying that Guo Degang had already made a small calculation,
Kindly buy a house, after a few years, a price increase and then sell it, they do not lose money at all,
But in response to these rumors, Guo Degang will never pay attention to them, nor will he pay attention to them.
Guo Degang punched those who could not control their mouths with their actions.
Since Guo Degang, who bought the house, he has directly moved in and has lived until now.
Nowadays, Hou Zhan and Guo Degang also have frequent contacts,
Even when the news of the two people's incompatibility spread on the Internet,
Hou Zhan even openly gave the seal of his father Hou Yaowen to Guo Degang,
And praised Guo Degang:
"It is a great blessing that Guo Degang can be in the cross-talk industry."
Since then, the mouths of those with ill intentions have been blocked.

The death of a generation of cross-talk masters,
Not only has it brought a certain impact to the cross-talk community,
It also has a profound impact on the audience,
Such an old artist, after his death,
I can't hear him say crosstalk anymore,
Hou Yaowen's various deeds before his death were printed in the hearts of the audience.
Because they know that the audience is their food and clothing parents,
Without the audience, there would be no them today,
In the cross-talk, Hou Yaowen is admirable to everyone, and it is also the pride of his own life.
But in marriage and family, it cannot be as smooth as the career,
If you know that after you have passed away,
Because of their own property, their own daughter and brother became enemies in court,
Presumably, Hou Yaowen is also very sad and sad, and he does not want this scene to happen.
He poured out his blood in crosstalk, made countless friends, and accepted countless apprentices.
In the end, there is very little possibility of being true to yourself,
It is also a great sorrow of life.
But in real life, you, me, him, who is not,
Some people have made countless friends in their lives, but when you are really difficult, people who can reach out to help you without hesitation,
Maybe just two or three,
But some people only have two or three friends in their lives, and they will definitely help if they have difficulties.
Because he knew that Ning Que was not indiscriminate.
Today, Hou Yaowen's daughters are also living a happy and plain life.
Apprentice Guo Degang also managed the Deyun Society better and better,
Everybody went back to a peaceful life,
Presumably, the spirit of Hou Yaowen's old artist in heaven was also comforted,
Then let his classic crosstalk stay on the radio, on TV and in the hearts of the audience!
