Xiangsheng Examination 103: Xiangsheng family "Gaomen" Shi Fukuan (Shi Xueguang)
Shi Fukuan, born in March 1949 in Beijing, is one of the top ten comedians in China.
When Shi Fukuan was studying at Houguangpingku Primary School in Beijing's Xicheng District, he met Li Zuolin, his first master of music and art. Li Zuolin previously worked in the Geological Arts and Crafts Troupe, and when he came to the school professionally, he found that this little classmate who loved qu art liked it very much, so he taught this little friend by hand. Shi Fukuan followed Li Zuolin and laid down the basic skills of the two arts of cross-talk and allegro. Shi Fukuan was later placed under the name of Gao Fengshan, after all, Gao Fengshan's name was even greater, he was the leader of the Beijing Qu Art Troupe, the famous allegro king, and the founder of the high school allegro. After Gao Fengshan received Shi Fukuan, according to the allegro rules, he gave Shi Fukuan a stage name Shi Xueguang, but it was his real name Shi Fukuan who shouted loudly.
It is said that this little friend who loves music and art, because he went to Xidan Mall to listen to cross-talk, had a misunderstanding, and was also "held hostage" by others, and it was a classmate who borrowed money from his uncle's house before he "redeemed" him.
In 1961, the 12-year-old took to the stage of Beijing Television, performing allegro. This appearance also left a deep impression on Guo Quanbao, Hao Aimin and so on. Since then, the child has been hanging all the way and is often active on the screen.
In 1965, at the age of 16, Shi Fukuan was admitted to the China Railway Literary and Labor Corps. Here, he met the new Hou Yaowen, and since then, the artistic lives of the two have highly overlapped, and the pair worked together for forty years until Hou Yaowen died suddenly of a heart attack in 2007. Shi Fukuan has always been a green leaf, and Hou Yaowen's red flower has set off the score of charm, becoming a household name for a generation of comedians.
In 1984, Shi Fukuan's cross-talk performance of "Sweet and Sour Live Fish" performed by Shi Fukuan and Hou Yaowen won the first prize in the National Cross-Talk Competition. Also in this year, the two were named "China's Top Ten Laughing Stars" together.
Shi Fukuan's representative works include "Learning Foreign Languages", "Spitting Lotus Flowers", "Anyway", "Jingjiu Yanyi", "Sweet and Sour Live Fish" and so on.
Shi Fukuan has appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala 14 times, 11 of which are with Hou Yaowen to speak cross-talk. The Spring Festival Gala work that left the deepest impression on everyone was "Hou Da Understand".
Shi Fukuan originally did not accept disciples, but he could not withstand Yu Qian's "grinding", so he had to agree and accept Yu Qian as an apprentice. After Yu Qian, he took in Liu Xianwei, Hou Zhen, and Sun Yue, all of whom were in the Deyun Society, a bit of a face-blocker, and found a "name" for these few. In fact, Hou Zhen, Sun Yue, and Liu Xianwei were all art teachers, and they did not learn Shi Fukuan's allegro and cross-talk skills.
Liu Xianwei's son was Liu Helong, who worshiped under Guo Degang and was also in the Deyun Society. Hou Zhen was the eldest grandson of Hou Baolin. Sun Yue had earlier worshiped under Zhao Xiaolin (said to be in 1997), and actually followed Zhao Xiaolin's wife Ma Guirong to learn cross-talk. Later, Zhao Xiaolin and Ma Guirong divorced, ma Guirong worshiped under Hui Wanhua's door, and Wang Yuebo, who studied with Sun Yue, worshiped under Ma Guirong's door. Sun Yue worshiped under Shi Fukuan's door instead. The reason why Sun Yue did not return to Ma Guirong is that Ma Guirong and Guo Degang did not deal with each other, so it was not easy to return to worship.
Because Shi Fukuan's four apprentices were all in the Deyun Society, Shi Fukuan was absolutely supportive of the Deyun Society. Deyun She's own variety show, and also invited Shi Fukuan to go, and enshrined him as a guest.
Because Gao Fengshan took the initiative to descend from the Shou zi generation to the Bao Zi generation, Shi Fukuan could only be the character generation, and naturally Yu Qian could only be the Ming character generation.
Shi Fukuan and Hou Yaowen have partnered together for 42 years to become a good story in the music and art world, but there have also been mistakes between the two, contradictions and entanglements. For example, in the 1990s, when the cross-talk was in recession, Shi Fukuan and Dai Zhicheng's wife Yang Lei performed more than a dozen sketches together, and Hou Yaowen partnered with Cui Jinquan, Wang Peiyuan and Wei Wenliang to say cross-talk. Hou Yaowen also cooperated with Huang Hong in the sketch "Playing Poker" during the Spring Festival in 1994, at which time Shi Fukuan, Yan Yueming and Li Jindou collaborated on the cross-talk "Off topic". From these facts, it can be inferred that there was a problem between the two, but it was later solved. Husband and wife have been together for a long time and quarrel, even if they are alone, their teeth sometimes have to bite their tongues, let alone a cross-talk partner?
In 2007, Hou Yaowen died suddenly, leaving Shi Fukuan, who has never had a fixed partner since then, and all he has taken is temporary. For example, Shi Fukuan once partnered with Master Hou Baolin's disciple Shi Shengjie.
Recently, a photo of Shi Fukuan was exposed on the Internet, who was very thin and wore a cotton jacket in the summer, saying that he was suffering from rectal cancer. I hope the old man can survive, he is recognized as a good old man in the cross-talk circle, an honest man.
