Peninsula all-media reporter Meng Da
Laughter is the antidote to life, and a talk show is the cup of water that dilutes the bitterness when drinking medicine.
In Qingdao, there is such a group of people, they are quick to respond, humorous and wise; they can tell paragraphs and are good at funny; they rely on "spitting" themselves and pleasing others. For a few minutes on stage, they were performers; in everyday life offstage, they were corporate white-collar workers, college students, civil servants, and like us, they were nine to five. They look at everyday "inertial thinking" from a contrarian perspective, creating laughter in this contrast; they bring their inner world, especially helplessness, doubt and resistance, to the stage and show it to countless people.
They are the talk show actors who concoct the antidote to our lives.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="8" > "open wheat" after work</h1>
"Welcome to the scene of our club opening wheat on this Thursday evening, good evening everyone!" At 7:30 p.m. on April 15, The Poky's Pub Bar on Jiangxi Road in Shinan District was packed with nearly 50 spectators, and a talk show was held here.
With a black pullover on the upper body and a pair of gray sweatpants on the lower body, Teacher He strode onto the stage with a microphone in his hand. A chasing light was focused on him, and tonight he was the host here.
He Tianqi, founder of Qingdao Sanshishi Comedy Club, is hosting the Open Wheat event.
"Our performance today is called talk show open wheat, some newcomers will use this opportunity to perform on stage, but there will also be some old actors trying to talk about their new paragraphs tonight, the effect is definitely not necessarily, the probability is relatively poor." Why is it poor? Because it's free! Teacher He humorously interacted with the audience, and after some warm-up, the performance officially began.
"I recognize marriage as the graveyard of love, and the wedding is a door, the outside of the door is the green years, the inside of the door is a happy family, and my profession is the gravekeeper who looks at the 'grave'." 」 Wedding planner Sha favors being the first stand-up comedian to appear on stage. Starting from his own work, he shared his experience in humorous passages and ridiculed what he saw and heard.
Actor Shazam is performing a talk show and is a wedding planner on weekdays.
"Talk show is very difficult, the paragraph is often written until two or three o'clock in the morning, often stay up late memory will decline, every time you go upstairs to remember to forget to take the courier, every time you go downstairs to remember to forget to throw garbage." 」 YJ, a 24-year-old Leo talk show actor, spat out his "forgetfulness" on stage, which resonated with many young audiences offstage.
Talk show actor YJ is performing and talks about his "forgetfulness".
"Have you ever been urged to get married?" One day my mother was eating and suddenly said to me, if you don't get married, I won't be able to close my eyes when I die. I listened and hurried to comfort: What a big deal, Mom, it doesn't matter, I'll help you close it when the time comes..." Newcomer Liu Thirty was slightly shy on the stage, and chatted with everyone about the passage of the elderly youth looking for an object. When she first got involved in talk shows, she laughed that night because she said the wrong word in the middle.
As a newcomer to the talk show, Liu Thirty is constantly familiar with his manuscripts before performing on stage.
The performance lasted two hours, with 14 actors taking the stage one by one. Say it's the actors, but in fact, they all just got off work and came from various places. Among the 14 people, some are engaged in corporate training, some are doing new media, some are studying in colleges and universities, and some are civil servants. Although the performance of talk shows is only part-time, there is no shortage of cattle people, including some who have participated in national competitions, and one of whom has also won the third place in the Single-Person Original Comedy Competition.
At a stand-up comedy show at qingdao Sanshi pick-up comedy club, the audience enjoyed the actor's performance.
A show of 14 people, each with only a few minutes. As one "baggage" and "stem" kept throwing out, some of them rang out, causing laughter in the hall; some were dumb, making the whole audience embarrassed. The "old people" coped with it freely, while the new people were slightly restrained and even nervous, the hand holding the microphone trembled slightly, and the other hand either did not know where to put it, or kept holding the microphone line. Whether it is the actors or the audience, for this group of "hit workers" who have left work, these two hours are very relaxed and happy.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="22" > the "leader" of the returnee comedy</h1>
The bar space is not too big, and the stage for the talk show is only two or three square meters. Next to it is a small billiard room, where the actors wait and memorize. Offstage, they are a different look.
Talk show lover Wenwen will carefully familiarize herself with her manuscript every time she goes on stage.
Wenwen was a newcomer, slightly nervous, holding two pieces of A4 paper in both hands, looking up at the ceiling from time to time, carrying the manuscript over and over again. Master Terrier is an old actor who has won the third place in the Single-Person Original Comedy Contest, whether on stage or offstage, with a relaxed face, chatting with reporters about talk shows, and the head is The Tao. Teacher He, who had just walked in the warm-up, showed his youthful nature, wrapped his arms around the fat Xinghai from behind, and tried to pick him up, causing a group of people to laugh.
In qingdao sanshi pick up comedy club open Mai's performance backstage, the actors are very relaxed.
Mr. He is not a teacher, his real name is He Tianqi, born in 1989, graduated from Tongji University in Shanghai, master of business in international trade at Florida International University, 6 years ago, and now works in the management of an international school in Qingdao.
He Tianqi, the head of the Qingdao Sanshi pick-up comedy club, is performing a talk show.
He Tianqi called himself a "super player", what "werewolf killing" and "script killing" have long been in contact. In 2009, He Tianqi began to contact talk shows. In 2018, the first season of the hit network variety show "Talk Show Conference" was broadcast, "That year I participated in a Shandong regional selection competition organized by Shanghai Xiaoguo Culture, and one of the senior judges in Shanghai asked me why a city as big as Qingdao can't have a local club?" ”
To this end, He Tianqi specially went to Shanghai Xiaoguo Culture to seek advice, and a staff member in charge of club operation patiently received him for more than an hour, and also invited him to go to the company's offline open wheat in the evening to open his eyes. "Their performance environment is very good, the audience is also very large, and there are more than a dozen actors waiting in line behind the scenes."
Returning to Qingdao from Shanghai, He Tianqi is determined to add a stand-up stage to the city where he lives.
He Tianqi is hosting the open wheat event.
"I'm a very lucky guy, and now the owner of the show bar is an American, he knows a lot about talk shows, he's very open-minded, and he has re-created the stage to support our performance." At the beginning of the establishment of the Qingdao Sanshi pick-up comedy club, He Tianqi looked for performance venues everywhere, and because many people did not know much about the industry, he touched a lot of nails.
Qingdao Sanshishi Comedy Club offline open Mai's pub venue Poky's Pub bar.
Today, Boky's Pub bar has become the designated open wheat performance venue of Qingdao Sanshishi Comedy Club, and once a week, the audience can watch it for free. Many Qingdao stand-up comedians are here for the first time on stage. In the past three years of operation, the core members of qingdao sanshishi comedy club have more than a dozen people, and there are thirty or forty people who can say that they are open to mai. Qingdao's talk show culture circle is rising under the efforts of a group of young people, although it has not yet formed a more mature market, but every week there will be different clubs doing their own open wheat.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="36" > talk shows are more than just telling jokes</h1>
Wenwen is a "post-85" female talk show enthusiast who works as a forensic manager in the shipping field. In the past, Wenwen preferred to watch sketches and cross-talk, and later under the influence of variety shows, she slowly liked talk shows. Recently, she signed up for several offline talk shows and opened wheat events, and has performed on stage three times.
Wenwen, a post-85s talk show lover, performs on stage, and she is a legal manager in the shipping field on weekdays.
"Some time ago, my mother arranged to participate in a blind date, and I learned that the blind date has the maximum age limit, which means that if you can't find a partner at a certain age, I'm afraid you really don't have to look for it." Just like in the past exams, after the bell rings, the teacher will often say: Don't look anymore, give you enough time, no, it really won't be. As an urban woman with personal blind date experience, Wenwen processed her real experience of participating in the 100-person blind date conference and wrote it into the segment of the talk show performance.
There's never a shortage of jokes in life, and talk shows aren't just about telling jokes.
"When creating, the content will be conceived first, often to find something that can produce negative emotions, and then the material will be logically compiled into paragraphs." In Wenwen's view, talk shows are often their own complaints and reflections on some problems in life. In order to achieve a good performance effect, she often writes the prepared passages into a draft, and then slowly memorizes them. Newcomers talk about the biggest problem with talk shows like they're giving a speech, as if they're giving a report. To this end, Wenwen needs to improve her performance level through continuous learning and exercise, like many newcomers.
Before Wenwen came to the stage, she went to a quiet place outside the house and went through her manuscript again.
"On the open wheat, a person's time on stage is usually only a few minutes, for which he has to prepare a manuscript of about 1,000 words." Wang Cang, the head of Qingdao clam comedy, just established a club at the beginning of this year, and there are currently 15 or 6 active members. In Wang Xuan's view, the biggest difference between talk shows and cross-talk is that stand-up comedians cannot repeat other people's or past things, but must have their own stories. Classic passages in traditional cross-talk such as "Horse Coat" will be passed down from generation to generation. But in the circle of talk shows, the most taboo is to copy other people's paragraphs. Now that people have many access to information, audiences don't want to hear jokes that have long since rotted down the street, and a talk show actor without an original story will often be "broken" by the audience. Because of this, many talk shows are not allowed to be videotaped.
Wang Yue, the director of Qingdao clam comedy, usually engages in corporate training, team building and other work, and this year he just established a club.
Talking to talk to stand-up comedians, one of the words I hear the most is "duanzi". "Stand-up comedians must have good skills and high-quality strips." In He Tianqi's view, the talk show seems to have a very low threshold, but it is not just a casual blurt. During the epidemic last year, clubs could not perform for many months, He Tianqi insisted on writing 10 paragraphs a day, and then picked 5 to send to the circle of friends, leaving one or two for further processing with good results.
"Stand-up comedians should cultivate comedic aesthetics", can say is not the same as nonsense, actors' performances should have a clear logic, just like writing an argumentative essay, there must be arguments and arguments. At the same time, humor is also divided into high and low levels. To this end, He Tianqi has a deep understanding of European and American talk show culture, and at the same time, he has also designed courses to train talk show enthusiasts. "A low threshold does not mean no threshold, and stand-up comedians should have respect for the industry."
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="47" > see yourself in the paragraph</h1>
"Stand-up comedians often spit and often perform in a self-deprecating way." In Wang Yue's eyes, comedians sometimes have to face their own pain and learn how to dismantle it. And complaining about some people and things does not mean an attack, a difficulty and an offense, but often more of a helplessness, doubt and resistance.
At an open wheat event of Qingdao Clam Comedy, the principal Wang Yue performed.
There is a philosophical saying, "A laugh defeats a lifetime." In the talk show scene, the audience does not want to listen to the actors on the stage to talk about success or chicken soup for the soul, they want to hear from the actors about the problems and troubles that everyone will encounter in life, and want to hear how they complain.
As a performance that can be performed in a public place, the content that the stand-up comedians want to say will generally be preliminarily reviewed by the club, and the pure negative emotions that have not been packaged and created are not good content, and the topic itself is also forbidden.
On the stage, some actors talked about their work, complaining about the shrewd boss and annoying HR in the company; some actors talked about their parents and gossipy relatives, sharing the experience of unromantic love and mate selection time and time again; some actors talked about all kinds of strange things they encountered: nosy uncles, overly enthusiastic waiters... This content is often what audiences are most willing to hear, because they resonate with it and see themselves in the actors.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="54" > entertain yourself</h1>
Everyone has a mouth, and maybe they can say it best. Talk shows, a field that is somewhat unfamiliar to the eyes of the island city people, gather such a group of people who take pleasure in "talking". Their identities vary widely; they spit on life and spit on themselves, opening the floodgates of pressure in their own hearts and the audience's hearts with self-deprecation. They love stand-up comedy and have found their own voice.
There is a talk show star who said it well, talk show is not people on stage to tell interesting paragraphs, but interesting people to talk about paragraphs. Interesting passages are easy to write, interesting people are not easy to find. From the perspective of the domestic talk show circle, there are very few people who can be made into full-time talk show actors, and the vast majority of people are just personal hobbies, in order to express, while entertaining themselves, they find themselves and the happiness that belongs to more people.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="57" > terrier master</h1>
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="58" > civil servants out of the circle to seize the "tanhua"</h1>
"Hello everyone, I am Master Terrier, the father of two children. No matter how hard and tired you work during the day, as soon as you get home and push open the door and hear the children call you Daddy, the exhaustion of your body becomes... despair. ”
With a face that resembles a "poor mouth Zhang Damin", the terrier master is born with a sense of joy. Compared with Da Mengmeng, his identity gives people greater contrast and surprise - civil servant.
After work hours, Geng Qiang participated in the club's talk show open wheat activities.
The terrier master's real name is Geng Qiang, who is also a "post-80s". Because of his hobbies, he joined the talk show club in 2018. In the eyes of others, civil servants and talk show actors not only have great differences in identity, but also how to balance work and hobbies is also a big problem. However, for the master of the terrier, this matter is not troublesome: "Due diligence in the post, self-study and pondering in spare time, work and hobbies can also be combined." ”
Stand-up comedians will create a "human setting" according to their own characteristics, and for the master of the terrier, "Science and Engineering Daddy" is a label that he recognizes more. At the open wheat activities of the Qingdao Sanshi Pick-up Comedy Club on weekdays, he often used his own grandfather as the object of ridicule, using vivid and humorous language and performances to bring the audience a different experience.
Graduated from the Mathematics Department of Yunnan University, he often adds mathematical stems to the paragraph, "If each of us can live to the age of 80, then our life will have 29,200 days, equivalent to 700,800 hours, that is, 2,522.8 million seconds..." Throwing a string of numbers casually in a talk show like this, for many young audiences on the scene, it feels very wonderful.
Geng Qiang is performing a talk show, and he is a civil servant on weekdays.
Master Terrier has two children, one 10 years old and one 5 years old. As a talk show dad, he will also take his children to the club's open wheat experience to let them know how good Dad is. "In my usual relationship with children, I never coax them, nor do I perfunctory them, and I will communicate with them very seriously." Because basically every week to talk about open wheat, and open wheat is often held in the evening, as a father who is responsible for cooking at home, the terrier master will generally make the meal in advance, and there is really no time to give it to his wife.
"No more takeaways." ——Life is not easy, and it is easy to become the "terrier" of the terrier master.
As the "shoulder handle" of Qingdao Sanshi pick-up comedy club, Master Terrier has more than 100 performance experiences. In 2020, he participated in the Stand-Alone Original Comedy Contest and achieved a good result of third place in the country. "The game had a lot of influence in the circle, and within a few minutes of the end of the live broadcast, the club sent me an invitation to perform." Because he had his own work to do, the terrier master pushed off many performance exchanges in other places.
In a training class for stand-up comedy enthusiasts, Geng Qiang (middle) shared his experience in creating a strip.
Only with good works can there be a good status, and with good results, there is influence. Not only is he a recognized good player in the club, but also a "tanhua" who has won the national competition, so the terrier master has a lot of fans in the circle, and he will also use his spare time to train some enthusiasts. For the professional talk show, the attitude of the terrier master is very serious, and he will summarize many skills and rules. In his eyes, anything with negative emotions may develop into a paragraph. But negative and negative are two different things, negative emotions are an objectively generated emotion, and negativity is often a very subjective attitude.
In his daily work and life, master Terrier also pays great attention to the accumulation of materials, and often writes down some inspirations in notebooks or mobile phones. For example, sometimes he comes home late late because of club activities or various social gatherings, and he changes his wife's complaints about him to a paragraph.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="73" > "cornice walking wall" in the Beijing Hutong</h1>
On the evening of April 8, the capital was Beijing. The post-80s "Da Meng Meng" from Qingdao stood on the stage of stand-up comedy in the 2021 Spring Contest of the Stand-up Comedy Competition.
Da Mengmeng, whose real name is Mou Meng, is a professional in stomatology and is currently working as a training manager in a company in Qingdao. On October 24, 2020, Da Mengmeng officially entered the circle, from a newcomer to breaking into the national competition, he only took less than half a year.
Mu Meng is a corporate training manager who has been shortlisted for the national competition in less than half a year after being exposed to talk shows.
Learning stomatology began to train managers, training managers became talk show actors, large-scale "cross-border", stemming from Da Mengmeng's love for this form of performance. "I've always loved comedy, I watch every episode of Talk Show Convention, foreign stand-up comedies, and Japanese manga performances are very popular."
Although it is part-time, Da Mengmeng did not "hide it for two years" with her company like Zhao Xiaohui at the talk show conference. His hobbies are public, and whenever there is an open mai performance, "fan colleagues" will go to him to cheer him up. In this competition, he also asked the company for leave in the name of going out to participate. To this end, he went to Beijing three days in advance to open the wheat field to test the effect of the strip. Every day, he shuttles through the hutongs of old Beijing and participates in activities that, in his words, are "flying cornices and talking talk shows" in the old city of Beijing.
Mou Meng participated in the stand-up comedy competition of the 2021 Spring Comedy Contest held in Beijing in early April.
Because he is a major in dentistry, in order to make the paragraph have characteristics, he often makes up some stories related to his profession. For example, some majors of medical studies are too unpopular, and medical students can't find suitable jobs after ten years of graduation, etc., many of which are the personal experiences of his friends around him. In order to make the paragraph "sound", Da Mengmeng has made a lot of efforts, and sometimes polishing a relatively compact five-minute paragraph will take a month or two. In Qingdao, he would participate in five or six open wheat sessions a month and constantly exercise himself.
The competition in Beijing received a lot of attention, with hundreds of participants alone, from all over the country. The tournament has been held offline since April 6-10, and a single live broadcast on Weibo attracts more than 300,000 people every day. After playing, Da Meng Meng was very nervous, "the mouth was scooped, the rhythm was chaotic", did not play his highest level, and finally stopped in the preliminary round. What deeply touched him during this trip to Beijing was that "Beijing and Qingdao are not the same in culture, and there are some dialect terriers that can ring in Qingdao, but it is not necessarily easy to make in Beijing."
Mou Meng took a group photo with some of the contestants and spectators who participated in the Stand-up Comedy Competition 2021 Spring Competition.
However, for Da Mengmeng, it has been very fruitful. He made a lot of friends: like him, those local talk show actors in Beijing have busy work on weekdays, catch several talk shows in the evening, and then take a long subway home, and continue to be an ordinary office worker the next day; gain insight: "Deep feeling, Qingdao only has a few open wheat per week, and Beijing will have several times a night"; also harvested happiness: after the game, Da Mengmeng took a happy group photo with all the actors and the audience, and there were so many enthusiastic actors involved in it. With so many enthusiastic audiences coming to support, perhaps, the spring of this comedy is coming.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="84" > Liu Yiduo</h1>
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="85" > to catch the yard by high-speed rail</h1>
"When I was in my first year of high school, the newborn calves were not afraid of tigers, and they only had 985 in their hearts. In the second year of high school, I grew up and felt that the second book was also very good... After I finished the college entrance examination, I was at peace, and the junior college was also a university... The person who took the undergraduate examination to play and play, and the ability to learn the skills had to go to college..." The person who created this college entrance examination paragraph was Liu Yiduo, a "post-00s" talk show actor, who is currently a freshman at Haidu College of Qingdao Agricultural University. A lover of talk shows, he often pays for himself and rushes the high-speed train from Laiyang to Qingdao to perform.
"Post-00s" talk show enthusiast Liu Yiduo is a freshman student who often comes to Qingdao by high-speed train from Laiyang to talk about talk shows.
Liu Yiduo, 19 years old this year, is a native of Changchun, Jilin Province, and the sense of humor that comes with the northeasterners is fully reflected in him. In the first semester of high school, he came into contact with the "Tonight 80s Talk Show", an earlier talk show in China, and felt that his inner world suddenly opened up a new world, and since then he has been fascinated, and gradually began to write paragraphs and talk about paragraphs. After going to college, Liu Yiduo came to Laiyang, where the school is located, and out of great enthusiasm for talk shows, he longed for the stage and longed for performance. If he wanted to stage, he had to go out, so he contacted a number of stand-up comedy clubs in Qingdao and participated in their open wheat activities.
"As long as I have the opportunity, I say I am willing every day." Because he cherished the opportunity to perform in Qingdao, Liu Yiduo would come to Qingdao by high-speed train almost every week, just for those few minutes on stage. He went to four clubs in Qingdao, and each time he took a car to Qingdao in the afternoon, performed in the evening, and then took the high-speed train back to school at six o'clock the next morning. "There's nothing hard, it's my destiny, I enjoy the talk show stage."
At a stand-up comedy show at the Qingdao Sanshi pick-up comedy club, the audience enjoyed the performances of the actors on the stage.
People who have seen Liu Yiduo's performance feel that he is casual, young and vigorous, and very open. "There is no size on the stage, and there are rules under the stage", as a "post-00", Liu Yiduo is free to put away in the performance, he likes to interact with the audience before speaking the passage, so that the field is warm. When it comes to the high emotions of the audience, he also constantly raises his arms to stir up the atmosphere of the scene. Liu Yiduo has created a lot of passages about the college entrance examination and campus life as a student of his own school, which many young people have personally experienced, so they can often "blow up" the whole field.
Because of the hobby of talk shows, Liu Yiduo's college life seems to be a bit busy. Nowadays, he not only often comes to Qingdao to participate in the opening of wheat, but also travels to yantai, Zibo and other fields in the province. Whenever he had the opportunity to go on stage to talk about talk shows, he would try his best to rush to perform. However, all the performances were not paid, and only the clubs in Zibo would reimburse him for the round trip fee. Liu Yiduo does not care much about these, he cherishes the present, a mind to practice the paragraph to do a good job, constantly improve his ability, in order to seize the future greater opportunities slowly reserve energy.
"Entertainment is serious, laughter is the most wide" is Liu Yiduo's WeChat signature, as a financial management student, he is obviously not interested in becoming an accountant, hoping to be on a bigger stage, the future can really eat the bowl of talk shows.

"At the end of each year, the unit will let us write an assessment to the direct leader: we anonymously rate him... Then send it to him with your own mailbox..." This workplace passage is what Shunzi often said recently, with her just the right tone and exquisite expression, which always makes the audience who are working hard in the workplace laugh and cry.
Junko usually does new media in the company, and now she has more than 20 talk show performance experience.
On the various types of open wheat stages in Qingdao, you can also see the figure of some female stand-up comedians, who interpret the charm and "her" power of "her" in a unique way of thinking and expression, and Junzi is one of them.
"Hello everyone, I'm Junko, I'm single..." Junko is a new media person who works for a large company and has more than 20 open wheat performance experiences, and she labels herself a "single professional woman".
Junko has an active head and has her own public name called "The Legendary Sister Shunzi" and has published more than 140 small articles she has created. In this part of her own world, she talks about life, talks about emotions, and also talks about the strange people and strange things around her. It is precisely because she has written a lot of interesting passages in her public account that her friends at the talk show club have pulled her in with a sense of humor.
On the stage, Shunko, who is labeled "single professional woman", is telling the audience workplace passages.
Shunko, who now always laughs at the audience, admits that before she was exposed to talk shows, she was even a person who often spoke a little bumpy, and no one expected such a contrast. "The more problems there are, the more they need to face them", Junko, after contacting talk shows, suddenly felt that this was perhaps the most interesting thing she had ever seen.
As a person who wrote a manuscript for the media in high school, did advertising copywriting after work, wrote columns and novels, Junko herself is full of a strong desire to express, "Only need a microphone, you can express what I have accumulated in my heart." She feels that every stand-up comedian is an expressor, and all kinds of problems encountered in the workplace and emotions can be displayed in the form of writing paragraphs.
However, the strips of stand-up comedians are often not accepted by every audience. Creation is difficult. "Without values, the audience will say that you are superficial; with values, the audience may not approve of it." Junko's former distress may be a problem that many stand-up comedians need to face.
At an open wheat event at Qingdao Clam Comedy, actor Junko performs.
At an opening last year, Junko was the last to play, and there were only two tables left in the audience, one of which was only one person, or her girlfriend. Such a "cold field" is already embarrassing, the only few spectators are still randomly answering the phone offstage, and the rhythm of Junzi's performance is suddenly disrupted - the field collapses. Because of this, she was so sad that she went home to cry and doubted her ability for a while. But calming down, she felt that this only showed that she had too little experience with the stage and needed to continue to work hard. "How cold the field dares to say, how hot the field dares to pick up", this is her goal.
"The greatest charm of professional women is to exude self-confidence." Junko felt that on the stage of the talk show, her inner charm was released and displayed, including the books she had read, the knowledge she had gained, and her view of the world. If the essence of talk shows is to make a sound, then to make a sound is to talk to the outside world. Now, Junko says she's fallen in love with talk shows. Like Junko, many people fall in love with talk shows and finally find their own voice.

Li Zhen, a reporter from all media on the □ Peninsula
The "Snow Country Train" frantically sprinkled sugar, Yang Kasa "scolded" the man was reported, Zhou Qimo was inexplicably resurrected many times, and Luo Yonghao dedicated "True Return" at the beginning of the final... After experiencing the scandal of its artists being caught taking drugs and the impact of the epidemic, the third season of "Talk Show Conference" launched by Xiaoguo Culture in the summer of 2020 with a mourning posture unexpectedly exploded, with more than 150 million hits in a single period, reaching a maximum of 200 million. In the words of the industry, talk shows have "gone out of the circle" this summer.
In addition to Li Xueqin, the biggest "beneficiary" of this popularity also has the "industry" of talk shows. Specifically which year the talk show rose in the local area, there are many opinions: some people say that Luo Yonghao was a teacher in New Oriental, and some people said that it started from "Tonight's Post-80s Talk Show", when Wang Zijian was still a slightly fat host, and the screenwriter "Birthday" in his mouth has come to the front of the stage and has become the boss of Xiaoguo Culture. Just like offline stand-up comedians raised in the "deep boudoir" people do not know, once on the variety show, it is possible to be popular, how to be red? It's a metaphysics!
In "Strange Story", she won the runner-up, and the talk show actress Fawn who "bombarded" the whole scene with funny passages also tasted the various tastes brought by "red". Previously, she had been popular in the offline talk show field for a long time, but only this, and no one knew her when she went out. Now it is different, the interview invitations of major media are continuous, and offline performances basically do not free up time. Some people say that she has the shadow of Siwen, the shadow of Li Xueqin, and the shadow of Yang Kasa, and she wrote this into a paragraph: "I am the shadow of so many people, am I a floor?" ”
"Does Qingdao have it too?" Yes, Qingdao also has it, and it has been performing offline for more than two years. I met Mr. He, the head of the Three Pick-up Club, at the opening wheat site every Thursday, at a bar on Jiangxi Road.
"The venue is free, we can help them drain the flow", Teacher He said, the initial search for partners was not so smooth, the other party asked him for the venue fee. "Actually, it's nothing, because they can't explain what the mouth show is, and they didn't expect it to be so hot." After a few performances in this cooperative bar, the audience was full, at most once, the bar was full of people standing outside the door, and even alarmed the police in the precinct.
An open wheat event of Qingdao Clam Comedy, where the audience plays games during the hot field.
Open wheat is free, the quality of the strip will definitely be discounted, and many times it is to give newcomers the opportunity to "try it" on stage. Commercial performances are different, 100 yuan a ticket, each time was robbed. But confined to the venue, you can only sell so many tickets at a time, remove the venue fee and the actor's fee, and "don't make money at all."
In the talk show industry, the two major clubs of Beijing Shan Liren and Shanghai Xiaoguo have become the leaders in the industry, the appearance fee of club actors is often 200,000 to 300,000, and the talk show performances are also fully rolled out in the first and second-tier cities across the country. Since doing talk shows in 2018, Mr. He has not only promoted talk show culture in Qingdao, but also held talk show training classes with a tuition fee of 500 yuan, and if the trainees can perform on stage more than twice, he will fully refund the training fee.
"Being able to find good actors from the trainees is our ultimate goal." Teacher He said, "As long as you can write a 5-minute manuscript and think you can go on stage to speak, we will give you a chance." "But how the effect is, you can only experience it yourself." Many people tried it and found that it didn't work, so they gave up. A small number of people insist on working hard, the first time there is a laugh point, slowly, can have a minute is better, and then, two minutes, three minutes, if you can have 5 minutes full of laughter, you can basically participate in the commercial performance. ”
"I am the first person in Qingdao to come on a talk show." Teacher He said bluntly that his greatest contribution is to make Qingdao a part of the talk show industry map, "In the past, there was no Qingdao station on the talk show tour, and now through our efforts to promote, we have continuously introduced the talk show big coffee into Qingdao, which has also made the major clubs pay attention to the Qingdao market." "Last year, the actor Master Terrier of the Three Pick-up Club was selected for the Shan Li Ren Original Comedy Competition, and won the third place in that competition, which has a high gold content in the industry.
Master Terrier' surname is Geng and is a civil servant. The reality of low salaries for offline stand-up comedians has once again been confirmed. Master Terrier said that he "starved to death" by acting in talk shows, and the reason why he is now engaged in this business is entirely out of interest. "At the beginning, Teacher He called me to perform, and I had no experience before, so I thought I could, and the first performance was very good." Master Terrier is slightly fat, talks with a smile, and he is a friend who can always make everyone laugh at the party.
He Guangzhi, a Shandong boy who just caught fire last year, said in his paragraph that as a full-time stand-up comedian in Shanghai, 1500 yuan a month, the house is rented in the suburbs, how many suburbs are there, and a notice board can be seen outside the rental house, which reads: "It is forbidden to catch wild animals, and violators are held legally responsible." He Guangzhi said that he was very fortunate, "This place still has laws..."
The source of Master Terrier's creation is also the life in it, and more expresses "negative emotions": "No matter how hard and tired you work during the day, as long as you get home and push open the door and hear the children call you Daddy, the exhaustion of your body becomes... despair. The master of the terrier majored in mathematics, and he would write the mathematical terms into the paragraph and turn over the half-eaten fish, which he said was a "mapping." It is undeniable that some passages must have a corresponding knowledge background to get the laugh point.
The Qingdao Sanshi pick-up comedy club opened the wheat scene, and the audience was both relaxed and happy.
Chen Peisi's open class on the Internet, popularizing his concept of comedy, he began to analyze from the primitive society, and concluded that the reason why people laugh is actually a manifestation of a sense of superiority. Where does the sense of superiority come from? I'm good for you, I'm not good for you, I'm not good for you, that is, for the bad situation. The principle of comedy is to constantly build a bad situation, and the laughing point is the bad situation. In Stephen Chow's movie, the difference is that the fat woman fell into the gutter, we didn't fall into it, the sense of superiority came, so we laughed. Happy twist words in the play, the difference is very dense, all the characters continue to fall into a dilemma left and right, we do not need to be left and right, the sense of superiority comes, laugh. Pure comedy is about constantly diluting the audience's guilt and triggering a sense of superiority. One of the intellectual respondents explained that "the core of comedy is tragedy."
The terrier master agrees with this very much, "Talk show is not just spitting, many times it is to express the truth of life in another way, you will find that it is very funny." In the training class on Sunday morning, the terrier master explained to the students in detail how to use negative emotions to write a paragraph. Master Terrier believes that what talk shows need is a sense of reality, and the threshold for actors to enter the industry is very low, but it is not easy to do, and it needs to be combined with their own characteristics, life, occupation, age and even height and weight, etc. "This line wants to do well, and it needs a little talent."
Teacher He, who calls himself the "second generation of the rich", graduated from a famous school in China, has a background in studying in the United States, his parents have a business, and there are many real estate. Rather than making money, he wants to find what he likes to do and bring talk shows into the Qingdao performance market, which makes him feel very accomplished.
Teacher He's circle of friends often has the news of the performance, and there are also photos of him going to various places to communicate with the big names in the domestic talk show industry. Most recently, he predicted that Zhou Qimo, known as the ceiling of China's talk show, would come to Qingdao...
