In today's cross-talk world, Guo Degang Yuqian and others can be said to have supported half of the country.
As long as the word crosstalk is talked about, the audience will inevitably be the first to think of them.
But if you push forward 20 years, there is one person who is more beautiful than they are now.
He is Chen Hanbai.
Chen Hanbai, Chen Peisi and Chen Yude were once known as the "Three Kings of Comedy", and Chen Hanbai was also selected as one of the "Top 10 Comedians in China".
The drama is that he and Guo Degang are still brothers.
Later, why did he scold Guo Degang for "deceiving the teacher and destroying the ancestors".
But he has recognized 6 dry fathers in a row, and the youngest dry father is only 4 years older than himself.
It can be said that for the sake of status, at all costs, it is really pulled down the face to call people dry daddy.
However, why is Chen Hanbai, who already has a great future and is admired by thousands of people, now "spurned by people" and no one cares about it?
Using strength to stink his reputation, what did Chen Hanbai experience?
01
It can be said that before Chen Hanbai was 30 years old, he did not have any ideals.
Go to school, finish graduation and work, just like most ordinary people.
At that time, he never thought that he would become a big coffee in the cross-talk industry in the future, and he never thought that he would be able to appear on the Spring Festival Gala in the future.
In 1976, 19-year-old Chen Hanbai graduated from school and came to work in a factory.
Chen Hanbai once said in a program that at that time, for two yuan, do not work hard.
Because a group is divided into third prizes, the first prize is 8 pieces, the second prize is 6 pieces, and the third prize is four pieces.
Although there was only a difference of two yuan in the middle, for those two dollars, Chen Hanbai's machine never stopped.
Therefore, when working in the factory, Chen Hanbai can get the first prize almost every time.
After adding a salary of 30 yuan a month and sending some to my family, I could barely live on my own.
At that time, Chen Hanbai was not as fat as he is now, very thin, and had a long neck.
People in the factory called him "long neck".
Chen Hanbai said: "At that time, I was very handsome, and if I had a face value of 100 points, I would definitely be able to pass."
However, the life of working in the factory is not good, and it is boring to do repetitive work every day.
In his spare time, Chen Hanbai would listen to the cross-talk to relieve his boredom.
The reason why he later embarked on the road of art is inextricably linked to this cross-talk that passes the time.
In 1987, when the 30-year-old Chen Hanbai listened to crosstalk as usual, he was suddenly inspired.
Why don't you talk about crosstalk yourself?
At that time, there was no background, and it was quite difficult to want to go out of the house halfway and enter the cross-talk circle.
So he decided to go to the Dalian Workers' Cultural Palace to learn it first, in case it was really this piece of material.
But when the principal saw that he had only begun to study at this age, he resolutely rejected him.
A few days later, Chen Hanbai prepared a cross-talk by himself, purely by rote memorization.
He decided to show the headmaster a hand.
Unexpectedly, when the principal looked at it, this person said that although the painting style of cross-talk was strange, it was talented in this regard.
So I introduced him to the cross-talk class and became the oldest student in the class.
With professional teaching, Chen Hanbai's cross-talk level has improved by leaps and bounds.
Once, the school held a cross-talk competition, and one of the people sitting in the judges' seat was Hou Yaowen.
From the time Chen Hanbai listened to crosstalk, Hou Yaowen was the person he most admired.
When I saw him sitting on the stage, I couldn't perform well.
But Chen Hanbai's performance was not much amazing, and Hou Yaowen did not notice him.
After stepping down, he wanted to take this opportunity to worship Hou Yaowen as his teacher.
Because he clearly knows that if he wants to make achievements in the cross-talk industry in the future, he must now worship an influential teacher.
At that time, cross-talk was not as widespread as it is now, and Hou Yaowen actually had the intention of receiving disciples.
However, the first time Chen Hanbai went to see him to worship, he was rejected.
But Chen Hanbai did not just give up.
The second time he decided to visit the house, he also went to the small restaurant to prepare a worship service.
At that time, it cost almost seventy yuan, which was equivalent to Chen Hanbai's two months' salary.
At that time, Chen Hanbai was nearly 40 years old, and many people said that he was so old, and he also learned to say cross-talk, which was completely unprofessional.
How could these people have imagined that this person who does not do the right thing in his mouth will be able to achieve such great achievements in the cross-talk industry in the future.
After Hou Yaowen learned about Chen Hanbai's experience, he originally did not intend to accept him.
But thinking that in the future, crosstalk needs to be passed on, and now I can teach one to count one.
In this way, Chen Hanbai successfully studied with Hou Yaowen.
When there is such a thing as Hou Yaowen, when you go out to say cross-talk, you can say, "I am Hou Yaowen's apprentice."
For Chen Hanbai, Hou Yaowen told him in advance: "You can't go to power for two years, and during this time, you must practice the basic skills."
The so-called strict master out of the high disciple, Chen Hanbai also used enough heart.
During a practice, Hou Yaowen said that there was a movement that was not in place, and he practiced alone there for an afternoon.
When he was ready to show his teacher, he was scolded.
After all, Chen Hanbai was not young at that time, and he was of course more strict with him than other apprentices.
And Chen Hanbai did not complain, only by working harder could he stand out among the many division brothers.
Two years have finally passed, and Chen Hanbai also has a solid basic skill.
At this time, Hou Yaowen relaxed and said that you can go to power.
And his first partner on stage is Wang Min.
Since 1995, the duo of Chen Hanbai and Wang Min has been performing in various places.
And won numerous awards in cross-talk class competitions.
From the beginning of the work "Hope", and then to "Eager to Learn", "Learning Singer", etc., they have become a fixed cross-talk partner.
But at this time, Chen Hanbai was not very famous.
What really made him famous was when he was 46 years old.
In 2003, during the second CCTV cross-talk competition, Chen Hanbai and Wang Min's "Who Decides" performed prominently on stage, and won the first place with strength and cooperation.
Chen Hanbai's fame began to catch fire from that time, and he became the most favorite and most familiar cross-talk actor for the national audience.
The next year, he took the cross-talk "Zodiac Zodiac New Year" to the Spring Festival Gala stage.
This cross-talk was a stunning four at the time, and the audience couldn't stop laughing.
Later, this show has been rebroadcast, and Chen Hanbai has also become a hot big star.
The rise of fame, not only the director looking for him, but also many advertisers to find him.
At that time, it was said that it was a lot of money.
As everyone knows, this has also become the foreshadowing of his decline.
02
In 2004, Guo Degang, who had been wandering in Beijing for many years, was favored by Hou Yaowen and asked Yu Qian to tell him that he was going to take him as an apprentice.
During the period when Guo Degang was visiting Hou Yaowen, Chen Hanbai did not stop him.
Because Chen Hanbai was famous at that time, he looked down on this "small bald head" who had just started to spearhead.
He also took in several apprentices at that time, hoping to prove that his apprentices would be better than him in the future.
But these disciples were not angry.
And Guo Degang, whom he once looked down on, was getting hotter and hotter.
Chen Hanbai also felt a crisis that had never been felt before.
Guo Degang's Deyun Society's fame in the cross-talk circle is getting bigger and bigger, while Chen Hanbai seems to be stagnant and standing still.
The most he does in a day is to take on advertisements.
However, such an approach has made his fame go downhill.
It was not until 2007 that Hou Yaowen died.
After the death of the master, Guo Degang and Chen Hanbai came to a fork in the road, and they chose a completely different path.
Guo Degang re-carried the cross-talk banner.
And Chen Hanbai embarked on a "road of no return" of wildly recognizing his father, and used his strength to make himself useless.
When Guo Degang first visited Hou Yaowen, it was because of one of his fathers, Yang Zhigang.
Chen Hanbai said that the most taboo thing in the cross-talk industry is to climb the door, worship one master, and then worship another master.
When Guo Degang first broke out in Beijing, he once claimed to be Yang Zhigang's apprentice, but he did not hold a worship service.
Chen Hanbai later ridiculed Guo Degang for climbing the door, but he did not expect that he would also be scolded as a "family slave with six surnames".
Chen Hanbai's first father was Liu Wenheng, although his fame was not large, but he was not small.
At the age of 12, he studied with Yang Shaokui, and "Playing Golden Branches" and "Learning the Big Drum" are his classics.
Chen Hanbai's second father was Chang Guitian, and when the three legs of cross-talk were standing, the Chang family was one of them.
The third gan father was Shi Fukuan, the master of Yu Qian, whom everyone knew.
It is worth mentioning that the two can do the relationship between the father and the son at any time, but in terms of age, Shi Fukuan is only 8 years older than Chen Hanbai.
And that's not his youngest daddy.
The fourth dry father Fan Zhenjue, the fifth dry father is Yang Zhigang.
And his most controversial father is Shi Shengjie.
When Shi Shengjie accepted Chen Hanbai as a righteous son, he also held a lively ceremony.
Dramatically, the two could have been called brothers, and the age difference was only four years.
But they became a dry father-son relationship.
At that time, Chen Hanbai could be said to be for the sake of status, and he could really pull his face down and really call out a dry father.
On the way to recognize gan dad, Chen Hanbai recognized more and more, and he was getting younger and younger.
Going around in half a circle, almost all the famous people in the cross-talk industry have an inextricable relationship with Chen Hanbai.
I don't know if I recognized my father too much outside and brought this imbalance home.
When he got home, he called his wife "Girlfriend" and asked her to call him Daddy.
This relationship is really too confusing, I don't know how long it will take to sort it out.
Think about Chen Hanbai, who was once a well-known figure in the cross-talk industry, and now recognizes 6 dry fathers, and they are all big figures in the cross-talk circle.
How can I stand at the top of the cross-talk world again?
But the truth did not go as he had hoped.
To blame himself is to blame himself for being too "doing".
03
In 2006, Guo Degang and Yang Zhigang broke up, and the former "master and apprentice" is now in court.
Yang Zhigang is Chen Hanbai's father, and Guo Degang is his own disciple.
Chen Hanbai didn't even think about it before he sided with Yang Zhigang, and on the other side, he also scolded Guo Degang for "deceiving the teacher and destroying the ancestors."
In this way, Chen Hanbai can prove his sincerity to the dry fathers, and he can also give Guo Degang, who was once unsightly, a blow to the head.
It's the best of both worlds.
Maybe the dads thought so at the time, but is the truth really the same as it seems?
Is it really all true to the daddies?
In general, whether it is to recognize the father or to satirize others, it is for their own interests after all.
Just like in 2018, Chen Hanbai's other dry father, Chang Guitian, passed away.
At that time, people in the industry went to mourn, but there was no trace of Chen Hanbai.
As a dry son, absent on such an occasion, it is inevitable that it is a bit unreasonable.
As a result, the reason why he did not go was even more bizarre, he ran to pick up advertisements to earn money, and there was no time to participate.
And at that time, Chen Hanbai was wearing red clothes and smiling at the endorsement ceremony, and there was no trace of sadness.
Chen Hanbai has a hand in receiving advertisements, and he has not received a hundred advertisements, but also eighty.
Therefore, in the face of interests, who the dry father is, he has long forgotten everything.
And the advertisements he received also appeared fake, and insulted the Beijing team, even if they apologized later, the audience no longer paid.
All these behaviors made his reputation worse and worse, and now he is completely forgotten.
Interests are blinded, but they forget their original intentions.
To this day, even if you worship more daddies, it will not help.
I don't know if she ever regretted it.
If you are as down-to-earth as you were at the beginning, step by step, perhaps today's Chen Hanbai can have a place in the cross-talk industry, and even Guo Degang broke his wrist.
But only thinking about taking shortcuts, thinking only about their own interests.
Who can blame such an ending?
