Who would have thought that "Talk Show Conference 5" completely collapsed.
Since its launch on August 30, the show has been controversial.
It started out as a question for the laughter.
Li Danhua made great efforts and invited Zhou Xun and Na Ying, two big coffees.
As a result, Zhou Xun couldn't understand the meme of the talk show, and even forgot to shoot the deer during the competition.
Later, when the deer spoke to Lahong Sang, she should be consistent and not shoot the light.
But she forgot again and slapped the lamp fiercely, which directly led to the elimination of the deer.
Zhou Xun is "chaotic", Na Ying is too excited.
She rushed to shoot Zhang Wei's lamp, seriously undermining the principle of fairness.
The show has not yet aired a few episodes, and both have been fiercely criticized by viewers.
Then there's the question of the paragraph itself.
"Talk Show Conference" is held almost every year, and those head talk show actors have been squeezed dry, and internal memes are repeatedly mentioned in the show.
Like Cheng Lu and Siwen's divorce terrier, Xu Zhisheng's appearance terrier, almost every episode of the program will be mentioned, has been frequent, making the audience "physiological" discomfort.
And Li Dan used to call the homophonic terrier "dirty things", and now these "dirty things" are flooded in the show.
When Hulan says "the piano can make up for the shortcomings" and Wang Jianguo says "my hen", you understand that they really can't write anything.
Finally, there is the bizarre format, which leads to bizarre results.
Station B blogger La Hongsang, relying on selling cute funny jokes on stage to say that the Internet is rotten, defeated the talk show veteran Fawn;
Kid and Liang Haiyuan have solid texts, but they were both eliminated;
However, Cheng Lu and Siwen relied on the "divorce CP" to both advance, which is really off the score.
Because of the above operations, the Douban score of this show once fell to 4.9 points, and it is currently only 5.0 points, which can be said to be extremely poor.
As the planner and host of the program, Li Dan sincerely said in the face of criticism that "Thunder and rain are all Jun'en".
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is exhausted.
Also doing the show, Li Dan served as a guest in the "Annual Comedy Contest 2" next door, almost in a word.
But in his own show, he is now tired of coping, and the stubble of the guests is not good to pick up.
The collapse of "Talk Show Convention 5" is actually a wonderful metaphor for the fate of some talk show actors.
Seeing Li Dan, who was a little lonely on stage, I missed the four people who were not present more and more.
The first is Luo Yonghao.
Although he has never really said talk about talk show before, he is the initiation teacher of many talk show actors.
He participated in the recording of the third and fourth seasons, and Lao Luo commented sharply in the show, and the grasp of the "big picture" was even more unbeatable;
The second is the pool.
He became popular with Li Dan through "Spit Conference" that year.
Later, he was disgusted by Xiaoguo's "involution culture", and angrily resigned, and even went to court with Xiaoguo.
The third is Ka.
He is the champion of the second season, amusing the audience with an unreasonable "violent meal", and his appearance makes the concept of "bombing the field" a golden rule for latecomers.
This has also become the "legacy" of the show, in order to "blow up the scene", many actors are opportunistic, contrary to the spirit of talk shows.
The fourth is Wang Zijian.
He used to be the host of "Tonight's 80s Talk Show", and now Li Dan, Wang Jianguo, Siwen, Cheng Lu and other well-known talk show actors wrote scripts for him back then.
It is no exaggeration to say that he was the "first person in Chinese talk shows" at that time.
Among these four, Luo Yonghao paid off his debts and ran to start a business again;
After Chi Zi left Xiaoguo, he could still receive notices, and now he is commentator in "Peak Rap" next door, and his sense of existence is also very strong;
Ka was arrested for drug use, and now it has become a banned word, which can be regarded as self-inflicted;
Only Wang Zijian is still a mystery.
Wang Zijian is like his beloved talk show, his debut peaked, but he soon encountered a bottleneck and fell to the bottom.
I remember that in 2017, "Tonight's 80s Talk Show" was suspended, and the core of the program left Dragon TV and held a "Spit Conference" on a video platform.
Wang Zijian also came, but only as a guest.
He temporarily served as a substitute host, and then left, which can be said to be in a hurry, and he went in a hurry.
Later, "Spitting Conference" became more and more popular, and everyone was asking: Where did Wang Zijian go?
An "answer" was given on the network -
Wang Zijian married a fierce wife, encountered domestic violence, and after the couple divorced, his ex-wife also transferred his property, so Wang Zijian suffered from severe depression and withdrew from the stage.
However, the ex-wife has repeatedly denied the rumors of "domestic violence and transfer of property", and to this day, there are only two points that can be confirmed:
One is that Wang Zijian does suffer from deep depression, and the other is that the couple is really divorced.
A person who has been bringing happiness to others actually suffered from depression, and fate really played a joke with Wang Zijian.
And Wang Zijian himself has lived, a "contradictory" person.
For example, he confessed in "I am an Actor 3" that he will not talk about talk shows again.
"The fool speaks to speak, the wise man speaks to have something to say, and I have finished what I should say."
After a tongue twister, it was as if he had seen through the earthly world.
But in a blink of an eye, he participated in another talk show "Listen to My Sister".
It is interesting to note that the behind-the-scenes team of this show is Beijing's "stand-alone comedy", and in the industry, "single-person comedy" is considered the biggest enemy of laughter.
For example, he said that his goal now is to be a good actor.
In "I am an Actor 3", he starred in the downcast Yu Huanshui and cried a lot of audiences.
The audience thought he was going to do something in the performance.
But a few years have passed, Wang Zijian has only played some supporting roles in dramas such as "Anjia", "Thirty Only", "Little Shede", etc., and the overall sense of existence is not high.
In addition to performances, Wang Zijian will also participate in variety shows.
For example, some time ago, he participated in the recording of "Baichuan Variety Show Season", but his sense of existence is still not high.
You open the network and seem to see him from time to time, but his appearance seems to be just "going through the motions".
The former "first person in a talk show", mixed into what it is now, in addition to making people sigh, is more curious -
Can a great change in family and psychology really destroy a person?
What is the real reason for Wang Zijian's fall?
In fact, looking back at Wang Zijian's journey, it is full of a kind of "fatalism".
If life is compared to a multiple-choice question, Wang Zijian chooses the "wrong option" every time, personally explaining that "choice is often more important than strength".
Wang Zijian has stuttered a little since he was a child, and his nasal voice is very strong before speaking, and in the eyes of crosstalk experts, he is not the material for crosstalk at all.
However, Wang Zijian practiced hard in the Children's Palace in Beijing since he was a child, not only cured his stuttering, but also learned a lot of penetration, and aspired to become a real comedian.
He does what he says.
At the age of 25, he quit his job to speak crosstalk full-time, and at the age of 26, he established the crosstalk group "Beijing Second Class Crosstalk Conference" in Beijing.
At that time, he and Ban Zhi Boxin and Xu Qiang formed the Iron Triangle, known as the Zhenjing Division.
At the age of 27, he worshipped Hou Yaohua as a teacher and officially entered the crosstalk industry.
In fact, from the current point of view, Wang Zijian is not suitable for crosstalk.
His basic crosstalk skills are not solid, and traditional work is not good.
But his strength lies in creation, and in the early years of the second class, many of the passages were original by him.
And this kind of live performance, generally on a large scale, foreign current affairs, he casually used to joke, which is why Wang Zijian can quickly explode the Internet.
Heavy creation, light performance, but also know how to combine hot spots.
Wang Zijian is actually a natural stand-up comedian.
But China did not have a talk show industry at that time, and Wang Zijian could only hover on the edge of the crosstalk circle and wait for an opportunity.
We also know the story later.
In 2012, "Tonight's 80s Talk Show" was launched, and the 28-year-old Wang Zijian joined the show as a host, and finally found the feeling of being like a fish in water.
In the program, his sentence "It's good to have you this night, I wish you a good night", has become a warm memory for many people.
He later recalled that those days were his busiest.
He lives in Beijing, but has to record shows in Shanghai, often going back and forth between the two places.
Just 3 months after the show started, he became a gold card member, and this show also made him the "first person on a talk show".
Unfortunately, Wang Zijian was born at an opportune time.
He went to perform a stand-up comedy with a background in crosstalk, which has a "sense of discord".
Crosstalk and talk shows, at first glance, look similar, even Guo Degang said contemptuously, talk shows are not stand-up comedy.
In fact, the logic behind the two is completely different.
Li Dan wrote in the "Talk Show Work Manual" that crosstalk is "magical realism" and talk show is "realism".
Let's take a simple example.
In crosstalk, Guo Degang will say "Yu Qian's father, Old Master Wang".
As soon as the audience heard it, they knew that this was made up, and everyone enjoyed Guo Degang's performance, that is, the four unique skills of speaking, learning and singing, and no one would delve into the specific content.
In the talk show, Li Dan will say: "Friends, drink something, it's not worth it in the world." ”
As soon as the audience heard it, they knew that this was the true expression of Li Dan, and there was a distinct life attitude and value orientation of the performers behind the funny.
Wang Zijian was caught between the two to survive.
In the early years in the second class, he used the thinking of stand-up comedy to write crosstalk, although he amused the audience, but the industry did not accept him very much, many people laughed at him for being so nasal, how dare to say crosstalk;
Later, when he came to "Tonight's 80s Talk Show", he took the background of crosstalk to perform talk shows, which is also destined to last long.
Stand-up comedians generally act in their own scripts, and Wang Zijian was already running three at the time, and after the peak of his creation, the jokes he wrote himself before were not suitable for being on TV.
So in "Tonight's 80s Talk Show", most of his manuscripts were written by Li Dan and Wang Jianguo.
This is detrimental to the self-esteem of a text creator, and for a stand-up comedian, it is like a veil through a veil, the speech is not pure enough, and even if the baggage sounds, there will not be much sense of achievement.
So from the beginning, the show was doomed to last long.
"Tonight's 80s Talk Show" has been broadcast for several years, has not been able to attract sponsorship, and was ostracized on Dragon TV, once relegating to the late night file.
In the end, program director Ye Feng took Li Dan, Wang Jianguo, Siwen, Cheng Lu and others to leave Dragon TV.
They established Xiaoguo Culture and also created the online comprehensive "Spit Conference".
In the process, Ye Feng handed an olive branch to Wang Zijian.
As soon as Xiaoguo was established, he invited Wang Zijian to join the stock and become a partner, but Wang Zijian himself had concerns.
At that time, the talk show did not form a climate, and the entire Xiaoguo team only had one work, which was Huang's "Tonight's 80s Talk Show".
Once he takes a stake, it means that his income must be linked to the company's revenue, and in Wang Zijian's view, Xiaoguo can't do it at all.
He wanted to host the show as an artist, and the drought and flood guaranteed income, so Wang Zijian missed the most critical outlet.
Later, "Spit Conference" became popular, and everyone found that without Wang Zijian, the behind-the-scenes writers such as Li Dan and Wang Jianguo could still make the audience laugh, and even Zhang Shaogang's host became more and more pleasing to the eye.
After a few episodes, the audience also accepted this new set of "comedy pairings" with laughter.
Even if Wang Zijian presided over an episode on his behalf, he suddenly stood on this new comedy stage, which always seemed a little out of place.
He never appeared in the later seasons of "Spit Conference" and "Talk Show Convention".
When talk shows have become popular in China over the years, Wang Zijian seems to have become the "martyr".
After tasting the sweetness of being on the TV show, it was difficult for his heart to return to the small theater, and finally the second class of crosstalk ended dismal due to poor management.
After experiencing many failures, Wang Zijian also followed Luo Yonghao's example and started a mobile phone.
He painstakingly established "Xuanhu Technology Co., Ltd." and vowed to make excellent domestic mobile phones.
He even did not hesitate to make a vicious vow "If the OEM ticket is smeared by the domestic machine, it will eat a pound", and also put the relevant dynamics on the top.
Luo Yonghao also makes mobile phones, although he faces various controversies, but he has made a hammer mobile phone and gained a group of fans.
And Wang Zijian tossed for a long time not to talk about mobile phones, and he didn't even make a mobile phone case, and later he himself said that he was "afraid of embarrassing domestic mobile phones."
The mobile phone was not made, and Wang Zijian began to enter the film and television industry again.
But in the past few years, Wang Zijian has played supporting roles more often, and his acting skills are not too prominent.
When he came to the stage of "I am an Actor 3", he did not perform well.
Although Yu Huanshui's debut performance was amazing, in the team competition, his self-positioning had problems.
The script was in front of him, but he turned into a director, screenwriter to adjust, and also instructed his teammates how to act.
Several mentors on the stage almost all pointed out his problem vaguely and bluntly.
In an interview backstage, Wang Zijian also admitted that he was "too distracted".
What are the distractions?
There are both arrogance that once stood at the top, and there is also a desire to prove their stubbornness in the moment.
He originally wanted to break the bottleneck of the actor's career with this show, but in the end he fell into a greater public opinion controversy.
Netizens on the Internet are sighing: What to save you, Wang Zijian.
When we sorted out all this, we found that Wang Zijian's half of his life was really embarrassing.
He became famous at a young age and had a great future, but in the subsequent development, he often overestimated himself and underestimated others, and at almost every intersection, he chose the wrong direction.
In the end, he went around in circles and returned to the same place, but his heart was already worn out.
He is what we often say "the heart is higher than the sky, and life is thinner than paper."
As for his failed marriage, it may be the cause of his depression, but it is not the main cause, at best it is only the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Fortunately, Wang Zijian has gradually got rid of depression through 2 years of treatment, and now his mentality is much calmer and calmer, and he does not shy away from the past.
The fame and income of the former little brother and Jianguo are far above him, but when it comes to them, he still faintly evaluates that "they are brothers for life."
Wang Zijian has been tossing for 10 years, and he is just 38 years old this year, which is too old for talk shows, and he has no place for him to go back.
But for actors, this age is just beginning.
As long as Wang Zijian continues to lower his posture, stop doing the spring and autumn dreams of the past, play from a small supporting role, and demand himself as a real actor.
In time, he can still become a good actor.
Although the upper limit is not as good as before, for a person who has experienced so many storms, perhaps this life of drought and flood guarantee is also his best home.
