No one expected that the "defection division" incident that was spurned by thousands of people 13 years ago ushered in a big reversal.
It can only be said that it is too early to draw conclusions about the dispute between Guo Degang and Cao Yunjin earlier, and now, Cao Yunjin cleansed the controversy and became the high-profile fragrant glutton, "out of the mountain" again, winning full applause.
Xiao 8's words are not false, look at how popular Cao Yunjin has been on a short video platform recently, you can get a glimpse of one or two.
According to platform data, a live broadcast of Cao Yunjin's crosstalk, the cumulative number of viewers can reach more than 12 million, the number of likes exceeds 100 million, the highest time 300,000 people watch online at the same time, among which there are some rich "rewards", Cao Yunjin's ability to absorb gold can be seen.
After being saddled with the title of scumbag who bullied and destroyed his ancestors, abandoned his wife and abandoned his son for many years, why did Cao Yunjin suddenly become popular?
When many people watch Cao Yunjin's live broadcast, they will find that he is still a proud talent, and Cao Yunjin, who has no one in his eyes, has not changed, only the audience has changed.
And I have to admit that a large part of the audience's perception of him has been "transferred" from the Deyun Society.
No way, there have been too few people in the Deyun Society in the past two years, and under their background, the audience found that Cao Yunjin is the one who really has the ability.
Deyun Society is now facing the embarrassing situation of not being able to pick up the green and yellow: the really powerful Guo Degang and Yu Qian, who are older, their energy is far less than before, plus they have been busy with side jobs in recent years (being an actor, although the development is not very good), there is not much time and thought spent on crosstalk.
Outside of them, there are actually no two people who can compare with Cao Yunjin.
Yue Yunpeng, who has been the most favored and popular in recent years, has recently become the most criticized from the outside world, and the criticism around him is mostly complaining that his ability cannot keep up with his status.
Playing ugly has become his deepest memory for the audience, and in addition, crosstalk as "zhengye" has dragged his feet.
Especially at the Spring Festival Gala at the beginning of 2023, Yue Yunpeng's crotch pulling performance made people disappointed him.
Coupled with the frequent participation in variety shows in recent years because of filming, everyone found that Yue Yunpeng's true character is so "weak": he loves to be angry and loves to be rotten, and he is not at all as easy and amiable as he conveys on the stage on weekdays.
Yue Yunpeng's reputation went down, and Cao Yunjin, who had been put together with Yue Yunpeng, naturally stood out. The same personality is not pleasant, but at least Cao Yunjin's business ability to resist ah!
Therefore, Cao Yunjin's live broadcast crosstalk is hot now, and Yue Yunpeng is actually "indispensable".
In addition to Yue Yunpeng, look at the other people in the Deyun Society. Guo Degang's son Guo Qilin, in addition to occasionally playing soy sauce in the crosstalk circle, puts more attention on acting.
Over the years, there has been little development of the crosstalk career, but the actor's career is booming, the blockbuster drama "Qing Yu Nian" has a heavy role, and recently the well-rated "Ordinary Road" carried the banner to play the male protagonist, and also won unanimous praise.
According to this momentum, Guo Qilin will only get farther and farther away from crosstalk.
Deyun Society has not launched some popular crosstalk actors over the years, but they are closer to "idou" in nature, with Zhang Yunlei in front and Qin Xiaoxian in the back, they have good looks and are quite loved by the public, but the level of crosstalk is a matter of opinion.
They belong to the "blossom in the wall and the fragrance outside the wall", and their fame has little to do with the real level of crosstalk.
And there are some famous but not well-known in the Deyun Society, such as Meng Hetang, it is difficult to carry the banner in the short term.
There are still some comedians in the Deyun Club, their business ability is not good, but their private life is very good, what marital cheating, domestic violence "play" is not happy. Zhang Jiunan of Deyun Society was exposed to cheating, sleeping powder, domestic violence and so on.
All these things have made the reputation of Deyun Society go downhill.
In addition, in recent years, the tickets of Deyun Society have risen with the fame, watching a performance, as little as 380 yuan, as much as 1800 yuan, watching crosstalk such a "civilian activity", has also become a luxury that ordinary people are difficult to support, and has become an entertainment activity for a small circle of people.
And Cao Yunjin's success may be at the right time, just to break this.
He opened a live broadcast to everyone to say crosstalk, not only high quality, but also everyone can watch, the most important thing is that this is still free, there is no threshold for false heads.
Thousands of people, tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of people gathered together, everyone is happy to watch, the picture is lively, plus Cao Yunjin's excellent business ability, why not!
Of course, while the live broadcast room was hot, some people questioned Cao Yunjin, feeling that he opened the tip, just to make money, but the words were high-sounding.
But Cao Yunjin's counterattack is also very powerful, in his understanding, crosstalk is the aesthetic activity of the Xialiba people, just like singing on the flyover, the onlookers are willing to give a reward, if they are not willing, forget it, this is not mandatory.
And his remarks also somewhat implicitly expressed his disagreement with Guo Degang's views. He believes that Guo Degang has made crosstalk niche and confined to a small circle.
Guo Degang's counterattack also came. In an interview with the media, he said that he absolutely did not allow the crosstalk actors of Deyun Society to live broadcast crosstalk, and if this behavior was found, he would contact the platform to limit the flow, which shows that he does not recognize this behavior.
It is precisely this kind of faint "confrontation" with Guo Degang that many netizens who do not like to watch crosstalk also pour into the live broadcast room to watch the liveliness.
So in the final analysis, Cao Yunjin's "popularity" this time is actually not very much related to him (ability is not counted, he has always been very capable), it can be said that the reputation of Deyun Society has benefited Cao Yunjin.
Look at the years when the Deyun Society was in full swing, Cao Yunjin's reputation was tragic, especially the stall that coincided with his divorce, the last live broadcast brought goods, not only not many people watched, but the people who watched it also all scolded him. It is no exaggeration to say that it is almost "rats crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats".
Who would have thought that in just two or three years, Cao Yunjin would not be extremely coming.
But how long can Cao Yunjin be popular, it's hard to say, this year traffic is king, one second to heaven, the next second to hell is not uncommon.
And how long Cao Yunjin and Guo Degang's "fight on the same stage" will continue depends on whose limelight overwhelms whom.
