Gao Xiumin and Zhao Benshan, a pair of beloved comedy stars, have brought endless joy to the audience through wonderful screen works. However, in the following years, their collaboration suffered many unpleasant experiences. Gao Xiumin's death put all these disputes to rest.
At the age of 25, Zhao Benshan has already made his debut on the stage in Liaoning, and he played the blind role in "Falling Three Strings" with his vivid acting skills, which won widespread praise from the audience. Meanwhile, Gao Xiumin, a 23-year-old girl, also works as a main actress in a local folk art troupe. Due to her excellent acting skills and hardworking spirit, she was soon promoted to deputy director. During that period, they did not know each other, nor did they foresee that a man named He Qingkui would make them brilliant together in the field of sketches.
One day in 1989, after work, Gao Xiumin met He Qingkui, a 41-year-old but slightly sloppy talent. Although this is not the first time Gao Xiumin and He Qingkui have met, Gao Xiumin did not know that this man 13 years older than her was about to join hands with her to create a legend in the sketch world.
As early as Gao Xiumin was 18 years old, she met He Qingkui. At that time, He Qingkui even wrote a script called "Two Rings" for Gao Xiumin. However, time flies, and He Qingkui's life gradually falls into trouble, until that day, Gao Xiumin meets He Qingkui again by chance.
That day, Gao Xiumin said to He Qingkui: "Big brother, you are very talented, why don't you write something?" If it is adopted, you can also earn performance fees! These words were like a match, igniting He Qingkui's deep creative passion. For him, 200 yuan is undoubtedly an extremely good income, so he is determined to start a screenwriting journey.
Gao Xiumin and He Qingkui began to work together, and their performances were a great success in the Northeast. "Who Marries Whom" created by He Qingkui became a classic of their collaboration, making Gao Xiumin and He Qingkui famous in the Northeast sketch world. Since then, the golden duo has embarked on a years-long collaborative career, creating many popular sketches together that are loved by audiences. Their partnership has also brought endless honors and achievements to their artistic careers.
At that time, sketches were all the rage, Zhao Benshan seized this opportunity, developed rapidly, and gradually overshadowed Gao Xiumin. Under the recommendation of comedian Jiang Kun, he appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala and performed works such as "Mahjong, Tofu", which became a blockbuster and quickly became popular. Since then, the Spring Festival Gala has become his personal special event and has attracted much attention from the audience.
In 1991, Gao Xiumin and Zhao Benshan, the two experienced divorce together, due to busy careers, Gao Xiumin and her husband Li Yunqi separated for some reason, their daughter Li Xuan was raised by Gao Xiumin alone, similarly, Zhao Benshan also filed for divorce because of the long-term separation from his wife Ge Shuzhen and the lack of common topics, and paid Ge Shuzhen and her two children's living expenses, alimony and other expenses, a total of 250,000 yuan, in addition, Zhao Benshan also left the Xiali car, a three-bedroom commercial house and all the facilities in the house to Ge Shuzhen. The two children were raised by Ge Shuzhen.
Remarkably, a year after the divorce, Zhao Benshan tied the knot with Ma Lijuan, a female teacher at the Liaoning Provincial Opera School who was 8 years younger than him. Gao Xiumin and He Qingkui have a deep relationship, and the two are attracted to each other because of cooperation. However, because He Qingkui's wife Zhang Yanru is unwilling to divorce, this relationship can only be maintained. After this, they continued to maintain a close friendship, but did not further develop into a lover relationship.
With her extraordinary adventurous spirit and firm determination, Gao Xiumin resolutely resigned from the art troupe in order to devote herself to the performance career and devoted herself wholeheartedly to creation and performance. In 1993, with He Qingkui's sketch "Baggage", she was a blockbuster in the National Sketch Competition and successfully won the gold award, which also became the starting point for her career to take off. At the same time, it was also during this period, soon after, through the introduction of others, she was fortunate to meet Zhao Benshan, and at this time, her cooperation with her golden partner Zhao Benshan began to attract attention, bringing countless laughter and joy to the audience,
As artists in Northeast China, Zhao Benshan and Gao Xiumin cherished each other very early in their artistic careers. They were full of praise for He Qingkui's creative talent, and Zhao Benshan highly recognized He Qingkui's talent. In 1997, Zhao Benshan encountered a very tricky thing: he and Fan Wei needed to perform the sketch "Red Sorghum Model Team" at the Spring Festival Gala, but the original screenwriter could not complete the revision of the script in time due to urgent matters. Time was urgent, Zhao Benshan thought of He Qingkui and asked him to help solve this problem. He Qingkui lived up to expectations, his modifications were excellent, and this skit was a great success at the Spring Festival Gala. This also officially opened the golden cooperation road of Zhao Benshan, Gao Xiumin and He Qingkui.
In the following years, He Qingkui's sketch "New Year Greeting" not only consolidated the golden partnership between Gao Xiumin, Zhao Benshan and Fan Wei, but also further strengthened the tacit understanding between them. For example, in the "Selling Abduction" series, their performance is amazing.
As their careers became more and more successful, at an event held in Gao Xiumin's hometown, the organizers hoped that Gao Xiumin could perform a show, and hoped that she could invite Zhao Benshan to perform together. Gao Xiumin readily agreed, she thought that with her relationship with Zhao Benshan, it should be no problem to invite him to perform. The leader of the organizer asked her how much she was going to give Zhao Benshan the performance fee, and Gao Xiumin said to prepare 200,000 yuan first, but she thought that Zhao Benshan would not accept the money if she shirked a few times in her face.
However, Zhao Benshan's performance at the event site was very successful, but when he paid for the performance, he directly accepted the money. This scene made Gao Xiumin very embarrassed, and she felt that her face was hurt. After the event, Gao Xiumin said a reproachful word to Zhao Benshan, big brother, you really give me face.
This incident had a subtle effect on their relationship. Although they still work together, Gao Xiumin clearly feels that their relationship has changed. This also indicates that their future relationship will no longer be as close as before.
While preparing for the annual Spring Festival Gala, Gao Xiumin received a call from a friend asking her to go to Tonghua to help save the scene. Gao Xiumin has always been known for being righteous to her friends, so she immediately rushed to Tonghua. However, she walked too hastily, and she failed to inform Zhao Benshan in advance that some of the changes in the sketch had not been rehearsed.
When the review team arrived, Gao Xiumin was still in Tonghua. Although the review team had arrived when she rushed back, she was unable to adequately rehearse the changes with Zhao Benshan due to tight schedules. As a result, there were some minor flaws in the review process.
Zhao Benshan has always been serious about his work, so he criticized Gao Xiumin. The criticism may be somewhat harsh, which makes Gao Xiu sensitive to be very unhappy. She said to Zhao Benshan: "I'm like this, you don't like to pull down." This sentence made the atmosphere between the two very tense, and they quarreled and became emotional.
When filming the TV series "Liu Laogen", Gao Xiumin won an important role in the play because He Qingkui was the screenwriter, and in 2004, when Zhao Benshan filmed the TV series "Ma Dashuai", he did not cooperate with Gao Xiumin again. Previously, he cooperated with He Qingkui in the TV series "Liu Laogen" and arranged an important role for Gao Xiumin. However, in the new sketch "Water Delivery Worker" prepared for the 2004 Spring Festival Gala, Zhao Benshan's original planned heroine was Gao Xiumin, but later because Song Dandan's schedule problems could not star, Zhao Benshan found Gao Xiumin to save the scene.
The performances of Zhao Benshan and Fan Wei made Gao Xiumin dissatisfied. In the seven performances in Sichuan, Fan Wei only received 7,000 yuan, Gao Xiumin questioned dissatisfiedly, Zhao Benshan responded, he became famous with me, and wanted to make money from me, if he became famous, he would go to other places to earn it, what everyone didn't know was that Zhao Benshan received 420,000 performance fees. As a result, there was a rift in the relationship between Fan Wei and Zhao Benshan. After the filming of the second part of "Country Love", Fan Wei also decided to leave.
With Gao Xiumin leaving Zhao Benshan, He Qingkui naturally stopped cooperation with Zhao Benshan. However, Gao Xiumin, who left Zhao Benshan, did not go downhill in his career, but became more and more successful. She invested in and starred in the rural light comedy "Holy Water Lakeside", which was a huge success.
Gao Xiumin originally planned to shoot the second part of "Holy Water Lakeside" in September 2005, but there were unforeseen circumstances, and on August 8, 2005, He Qingkui's eldest son He Shuchun died in a car accident. This accident made He Qingkui deeply shocked and painful. At that time, Gao Xiumin called her old friend Lei Kesheng, and she said sadly: "Lao He's son has an accident, and the sequel to "Holy Water Lakeside" that we originally planned to shoot in September may not be carried out as scheduled. Although we can't shoot this year, we will definitely be able to shoot next year. I will bear all the losses. ”
However, He Qingkui and Lei Kesheng never imagined that just ten days after He Shuchun's death, Gao Xiumin died of a sudden heart attack at the age of 46. In the last moments of her life, she failed to reach a reconciliation with Zhao Benshan.
After Zhao Benshan learned of Gao Xiumin's death, he immediately rushed to He Qingkui's side. At the funeral, he cried: "Sister, brother is late!"
This story makes people feel that the world is impermanent and life is full of variables. Gao Xiumin's death is saddening, and her concern and commitment to her friends will remain in people's hearts forever. May she rest in peace in heaven and we will miss her forever.
Years later, He Qingkui said when looking back on the past: "It was her fault that she and Zhao Benshan parted ways at that time, and the evening review team came to review the program, and she didn't even have the lines right, which was her mistake." I chose to leave because I loved her deeply. Zhao Benshan also said with emotion: "There is actually no irreconcilable contradiction between us, but we have not turned a corner for a while." At that time, everyone had a bad temper, so why bother. ”
With the death of Gao Xiumin, her entanglement with Zhao Benshan faded out of people's sight. He Qingkui and Zhao Benshan collaborated on "Country Love 3" four years after their death. In 2020, Zhao Benshan and Fan Wei resolved the misunderstanding, and Fan Wei participated in the filming of "Liu Laogen 3". There are no eternal enemies, everything is going in a good direction.
