"Small hammer forty, big hammer eighty".
This "famous sentence" that has been circulating on the Internet is still popular today.
At that time, Huang Hong, who said this famous sentence at the Spring Festival Gala, has now "disappeared".
People familiar with the Spring Festival Gala should know that Huang Hong can be regarded as a real "Spring Festival Gala nail household".
Counting up, he even went to the Spring Festival Gala more times than Zhao Benshan, and he also brought joy and laughter to countless ordinary people.
It's just that in this era of traffic, these older generation artists have gradually been forgotten.
From the "King of Sketches" to the major general of the Army to the removal of his post, and then to the current retirement.
This can't help but make people wonder, what happened to this Huang Hong, who once went to the Spring Festival Gala like going home?
It all started with his father.
01
Huang Hong's father was a well-known fast-book artist in the northeast, but he was very strict in educating his children.
Huang Hong, who was born in Heilongjiang in 1960, was originally named Huang Changshou and was the second oldest in the family.
Huang Hong's greatest fear when he was a child was his strict father.
As long as the father was not satisfied, he would point to his nose and say that he would even spank him with a bamboo pole.
Huang Hong, who was a child, also suffered a lot of boards.
It's just that what his father did didn't make him feel that it was harming him.
Because Huang Hong, who grew up in the northeast, was born with a sense of comedy and was more interested in the art industry that his father was engaged in.
His strict father instead inspired him to learn.
In elementary school, Huang Hong's grades have always been at the top of the class.
Returning home and immersing himself in his father's artistic atmosphere made him have a strong interest in acting career since he was a child.
In order to realize his dreams, he learns every day in addition to eating and sleeping.
In 1973, at the age of 13, Huang Hong applied for the Shenyang Military Region's Cultural and Labor Corps.
Although he was young, but his achievements were outstanding, Huang Hong was admitted with the first place and became the only special recruit in the city.
But he did not relax because of this, and after becoming a soldier, as long as he could sign up for the event performance, he would not be left behind.
The following year, he created and performed "Uncle Jiang Bao Pig Farm" by himself.
Although the popularity is not high, it is indeed a malleable talent to be able to create such a work at the age of 14.
In order to train him well, the troops arranged for him to be trained in a grass-roots company for 105 days.
During that time, he also received a third-class merit.
With this experience, Huang Hong's personality has become more determined and more mature than his peers.
It's just that in his heart, he always thinks that he can go further on the road of art in the future.
With his current ability, it is not enough.
In order to improve himself, at the age of 22, he decided to study at a self-study university.
After five years of unremitting efforts, Huang Hong finally received an acceptance letter from the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts.
Less than a year after entering the school, his abilities gradually appeared.
Artistic talent is very human, which also makes people on TV stations look at it.
In 1987, Huang Hong was invited to participate in the Liaoning Spring Festival Gala and performed the skit "Buy Wall Calendar".
It is worth mentioning that this sketch was also created by Huang Hong himself.
In order to go to a bigger stage, Huang Hongjing was introduced to take the sketch "Left Neighbor Right House" to the CCTV Spring Festival Gala to register.
At that time, Huang Hong could only say that he was well-known in the local area, and not many people knew about his works.
If you want to go to the Spring Festival Gala, it is still not so easy.
Because there were too many sketch shows at that time, the fledgling Huang Hong did not have any chances at all.
In the end, on the grounds that there were too many sketches, she politely rejected him.
Huang Hong, who had experience in military service, did not lose confidence in the slightest setback.
Perhaps under the influence of his father, from childhood to adulthood, Huang Hong will not give up because of failure.
On the contrary, the more pressure there is, the more it stimulates his competitive spirit.
The following year, Huang Hong once again created the sketch "Recruitment" to participate in the Liaoning Spring Festival Gala.
In this sketch, he plays a triangle by himself, which also includes a woman.
Both in terms of difficulty and innovation, it breaks the convention.
Its excitement has also been loved by the audience, and if such a sketch can appear on the spring evening of CCTV, it will definitely be on fire.
The following year, Huang Hong received a call from the director of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.
It made him very excited.
Because of the success of the sketch "Recruitment" on the local stage, he had the opportunity to go to the Spring Festival Gala.
After the improvement, Huang Hong took the sketch "Recruitment" to the CCTV Spring Festival Gala for the first time.
On the stage, he was not timid, and played extraordinary.
Since then, Huang Hong has embarked on the road of going home to the Spring Festival Gala.
And what really made Huang Hong famous was after he met Song Dandan.
02
In 1986, Huang Hongjing was introduced to Duan Xiaojie, who worked at the Shenyang Mass Art Museum.
Duan Xiaojie was once called a "talented woman" in the circle, and also played an important role in early works such as "Du Shiniang" and "Playing Golden Branches".
After the two met, they quickly fell in love, and after three years of love, the two registered for marriage.
Duan Xiaojie is worthy of being a "talented woman", and after the two got married, in order to support her husband's work, she created the sketch "SuperNatural Guerrilla".
This work won the first place in the national sketch contest and was finally selected by CCTV Spring Festival Gala.
Huang Hong and Song Dandan have known each other for some time.
So the two took the sketch "Super Life Guerrilla" to the Spring Festival Gala.
That year, the skit made the national audience laugh.
The name Huang Hong is also well known.
After that, Huang Hong and Song Dandan cooperated on the Spring Festival Gala many times, and were also called "golden partners".
"Hand in Hand" in 1991, "The Wedding" in 1992, etc.
The family has a "talented woman" wife Duan Xiaojie, and there is a "golden partner" Song Dandan, Huang Hong's career is smooth sailing.
Since 1989, Huang Hong's Spring Festival Gala has added up to 24 times, 3 times more than Zhao Benshan.
Left a lot of classic works, but also amused countless audiences.
In 2012, Huang Hong collaborated with Sha Yi and Shao Feng on the sketch "Jing Ke Thorn Qin King".
Unexpectedly, this skit became the last work of his Spring Festival Gala.
In 2013, Huang Hong suddenly missed the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.
At that time, many viewers felt sorry for this, and some people were worried about what happened to Huang Hong.
It turned out that in 2010, Huang Hong served as the deputy director of the Bayi Film Studio.
Two years later, he was appointed director of the Bayi Film Studio, and in July of that year he was awarded the rank of major general.
Because there are too many things, there is no time for rehearsals, and I am afraid that the effect will not be good, so I will miss the Spring Festival Gala.
What he did not expect was that the position of "factory director" not only made his Spring Festival Gala road freeze, but also made him carry a lot of negative news.
In 2015, there was a post that was very popular.
The content is probably written that "the sketch actor Huang Hong was dismissed in the morning and "taken away" in the afternoon."
It turned out that on March 3, 2015, Huang Hong was dismissed from the position of "factory director".
At that time, we were at the threshold of anti-corruption.
Huang Hong was dismissed from his post at this time, and many people exaggerated him.
Like what a morning dismissal, afternoon "take away" such a headline.
However, in the face of the interview, Huang Hong said that it was inconvenient for the interview, which made people even more suspicious of what was going on in the matter.
Huang Hong was also given the reputation of "late festival is not guaranteed".
At that time, someone broke the news that Huang Hong had bribed the leader before becoming the "factory director" and was reported by others, so he was forced to be dismissed.
And is it really as he said?
Until this matter was more and more exaggerated, Ming Zhenjiang, the former director of the Bayi Film Studio, revealed. Huang Hong is a temporary deployment of the superior, which is over the quota.
However, after this incident, Huang Hong did not appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala again.
His fame is also getting lower and lower, as if he has "disappeared".
The former "Spring Festival Gala Regular" has not seen him on the Spring Festival Evening since then.
An artist of the older generation is so lonely.
03
Although Huang Hong has not been on the Spring Festival Gala since then, his artistic path has never stopped.
It's just that in the first half of his life, he contributed to the Spring Festival Gala.
Now he is not much worse, just a lot more bland.
Perhaps because of the flow of traffic, the works starring the older generation are not as well-known as before.
After quitting the Spring Festival Gala, Huang Hong participated in many film and television works and also served as a director.
In 2019, Huang Hong directed the work "Everything Like You", not only with his own daughter, but also invited many old drama bones.
Although this drama has won awards, its popularity is not high.
On National Day last year, the drama "Shangganling" starring in the Shanghai Poly Grand Theater was the screenwriter served by Huang Hong.
In April this year, some netizens posted a photo with Teacher Huang Hong, and said that Teacher Huang Hong himself was very friendly.
It can be seen from this that although he has withdrawn from the Spring Festival Gala for 9 years, Huang Hong is still living well.
It's just a lot more bland.
One by one, the older generation of artists has moved from stage to behind-the-scenes, and some have even left.
When looking through their previous works, there is no scene of the liveliness of the past.
Maybe we are not concerned about how they are living, but we feel the passage of time and the change of times.
If it is possible, I hope to see the sketches of Huang Hong and Zhao Benshan at the Spring Festival Gala.
