Whose show is most looking forward to in the Spring Festival Gala today, then the pair of Shen Teng and Ma Li must be on the list.
Since the 2014 sketch "Help or Not Help", this comedy pair has become completely popular, and what many people don't know is that behind their explosion is Zhao Benshan's credit.
01
In 2014, Feng Xiaogang, who was the director of the Spring Festival Gala, invited Zhao Benshan, a comedy master who had withdrawn from the Spring Festival Gala, to serve as the artistic director of language programs.
When he received the news, Zhao Benshan was full of emotion:
"It's rare for people to pay attention, I will do my best to hold a Spring Festival Gala that does not exceed the past, at least let the people feel happy. ”
And this year, the audience not only remembered Xiaoyue Yue Yue Yunpeng, but also remembered Happy Twist's "Help or Not".
This sketch became one of the most classic and brilliant programs of the year, but what few people know is that the funniest baggage in this sketch is from Zhao Benshan.
At that time, after rehearsing this sketch several times, Shen Teng Ma Li, as the main creative staff, always felt that it was not enough, and even the chief director Feng Xiaogang thought that something was missing.
Later, they turned to the artistic director Zhao Benshan, and after watching this show, Zhao Benshan was even more devoted.
In terms of character setting, Zhao Benshan said firmly,
The aunt played by Ma Li must not really slander people, and we can't block the audience during the Chinese New Year.
In terms of lines, Mr. Zhao revised them sentence by sentence, and later worried that Shen Teng Ma Li would not understand it well, so he directly demonstrated it himself, and even performed it directly backstage.
Mr. Zhao unreservedly ordered Shen Tengmao to open suddenly, and the core "misunderstanding" of this sketch was not there, but after this problem was solved, another problem emerged.
How exactly should the old lady end up after she falls?
When creating this script at the beginning, everyone set an ending of "Spider-Man saves people", but after several rehearsals, they felt that the effect was not good, on the one hand, because Spider-Man was foreign and did not conform to the national conditions of the mainland, and on the other hand, there was no connection point, and the sudden appearance of Spider-Man was too abrupt.
After watching the ending, Zhao Benshan directly started a drastic reform, completely deleted the part of Spider-Man saving people, and changed it to Hao Jian falling to the ground and touching the old lady porcelain.
In this way, the effect is not immediate, and the burden will naturally come out. In order to present the sketch more perfectly, Zhao Benshan also deliberately changed the old lady's lines and rhythm.
You're a good boy, and you know how to help your aunt up.
It's going to be someone else, and I'll run away after the collision.
And the last sentence directly points out the core "misunderstanding" of the sketch, which is just in line with the original story idea.
When they heard Mr. Zhao's adaptation, Shen Teng and Ma Li, the two juniors, were stunned for a while. He is a master of comedy.
Zhao Benshan directly sublimated this work in a few words, and even the theme of the finale did not make people feel stiff.
"If we don't help people when they fall, won't people's hearts fall? When people's hearts fall, we can't help them even if we want to. ”
In the end, the baggage of "Help or Not Help" under the guidance of Master Zhao was one after another, and the effect on the stage was needless to say, when Hao Jian touched the porcelain in contrast, the audience in the audience and in front of the screen leaned back with laughter.
And this is also his original intention to organize the Spring Festival Gala that year, so that the audience can feel pure happiness.
Because of the excitement of this year's Spring Festival Gala, some netizens said that this is Zhao Benshan's last gift to the Spring Festival Gala.
This year's Spring Festival Gala has achieved Shen Teng and Ma Li, and since then, Uncle Shen's performance in the Spring Festival Gala has been even more eye-catching, and he even has the title of Zhao Benshan's successor.
It's just that Shen Teng can really do it now?
02
After the sketch "Help or Not Help" came out of the circle, Shen Teng and Ma Li's status in the circle rose directly, but the audience rarely knew that the credit for this sketch was due to Zhao Benshan, and the two didn't seem to mention it again.
But this year, Zhao Benshan, who had just made a comeback, gave Shen Teng a "slap in the face".
After Mr. Zhao withdrew from the Spring Festival Gala, the audience's expectations for the sketches were all pinned on Shen Teng, and in the past few years, he did not live up to the audience's expectations, whether it was Charlotte's troubles or the richest man in Xihong City, they all brought huge surprises and laughter to the audience.
But in recent years, Shen Teng seems to have begun to go "downhill", and the movies created by Happy Twist hit the street one after another, and after the broadcast of "Super Family" this year, Uncle Teng's reputation has plummeted.
The audience felt deeply deceived.
I went to see it for the name of Uncle Shen, but when I arrived at the theater, I found that he only appeared for ten minutes, and several laughs in the whole film were created by him alone, and the clips without him were extremely boring.
And this situation has occurred more than once, when bad movies repeatedly deceive consumers, even Shen Teng, who has a high favorability, will be consumed.
Even the works with which he really starred will be ridiculed by the audience.
Zhao Benshan's successor, Shen Teng seems to be a little behind.
After all, as soon as the master of comedy appeared, everyone else was eclipsed.
This year, Zhao Benshan returned with his work "The Legend of Magpie Knife Gate", obviously there is this comedy master as a golden signboard, but when it is promoted, the drama party should not use the master to promote.
There was no rumor even after the broadcast, and it wasn't until a self-media blogger spontaneously promoted it that everyone realized that Uncle Benshan had a TV series?
And after watching this play, the audience bluntly said that the master deserves to be a master.
It is worth mentioning that at this point, Shen Teng and Zhao Benshan are still a little similar, Zhao Benshan takes Zhao's family class, and Shen Teng has a happy twist.
But the reason why the audience doesn't pay for Happy Twist is because the "content" is too low, but the legend of Magpie Knife Gate is different, full of Zhao-style humor, and the familiar translation of the audience called the Spring Festival Gala back.
There is not only the humor of new stalks and old tricks in the play, but also the "self-deprecation" that keeps up with hot spots.
Humor is mixed with chicken soup, and chicken soup is mixed with funny. No wonder it harvested a large number of viewers and gave a high score of 8.1.
And Uncle Shen and Master Zhao, who are both masters of comedy, always can't avoid being discussed together, and there is even a topic on the Internet.
Can Shen Teng surpass Zhao Benshan?
This can't seem to be said to be a problem, and the relationship between the two looks more like a baton relay relationship, one passing the baton and the other.
And this transmission is the sketch we mentioned earlier, "Help or not", this work is indeed wonderful enough, even Master Zhao, who guided the whole process, said,
This is the best Spring Festival Gala sketch after "Not Bad Money".
Although Zhao Benshan's sketches have no predecessors and no one since, Shen Teng's development in comedy is not bad now. It's just that Uncle Shen must stop deceiving the audience, if he continues to "deceive", he will have to shoot himself in the foot.
