Feng Gong led several juniors to the cemetery where his mentor was, and not only offered flowers, but also bowed several times. Maji's cemetery is magnificent, and even the tombstones are unique.
The faces of the crowd were solemn, and they did not speak too many flowery words. However, many netizens complained about Feng Gong's etiquette: he said before that the master was his father, why couldn't he even kneel and bow?
In fact, in the past 18 years since the master was away, Feng Gong has always taken his family or apprentices to see the master on time. And this time, his heart is more sincere than everyone imagined.
First, Feng Gong went to sweep the tomb for his master, with a solemn expression
Although the master has been dead for many years, Feng Gong still attaches great importance to this tomb sweep, he wears black clothes, and even his leather shoes are black. The fog around the cemetery has not yet dissipated, which highlights Feng Gong's solemnity.
He was holding a large bouquet of flowers, like a delicate baby. The ribbon that binds the bouquet is white, and the wrapping paper that wraps the flowers is black. However, that bouquet of flowers has many colors.
Red, green, white, purple, yellow... Contrasting with each other, presumably, that is the flower that Mr. Ma Ji liked during his lifetime. And behind him, there were six or seven men, young and old.
When he saw that there was a camera shooting in front of him, Feng Gong still didn't have a smile on his face, he just pursed his lips, and then continued to walk forward with his head down. Finally, he arrived at that destination with his group.
Others also brought ceremonial flowers, and they placed a large bouquet of flowers on the steps of the cemetery. There is a large stone monument erected on the cemetery, which is very magnificent. In front of the stele, there are many small flowers that are growing well.
It seems that there is no shortage of people to visit in that place. Although the back of the stele is overgrown with weeds and many dead branches, there is not much trash or fallen leaves on the entire cemetery. Such a clean cemetery even has a touch of homely warmth.
There was no incense in the stove, but the incense burner was clean, as if it had just been washed with water. After everyone was cleaned up, a loud male voice shouted out the phrase "sir", and he said, Feng Gong is here.
He came to see Master. The camera zooms in and shines on the embossed face on the stele. That face is Ma Ji's, and the face of the sculpture shows a kind smile, just like a summary of his entire life.
Before his death, Ma Ji was willing to use all his life's learning, just to make everyone happy, and after death, his smile and spirit seemed to be right in front of him. Feng Gong didn't speak, just silently placed the flowers in his hand on the ground.
Feng Gong's face was a little puffy, and he looked like he had just cried. He tried his best to hold back his tears, but he still didn't say a word after all. After carefully placing the bouquet, Feng Gong's eyes were reluctant to leave, but just stayed greedily on the "face" of his teacher.
It turned out that Guo Wei, Hou Linlin, Jia Xuming, Liu Anyu also came to visit Ma Ji... They all came with Feng Gong. Feng Gong bowed three times with his apprentice, but he still didn't say a word, perhaps, tears had dried up in his heart.
If Ma Ji hadn't left, he would have been 90 years old. Time seemed to stand still for a few seconds before Feng Gong made a promise: he promised to meet his teacher again at this time next year.
This tear-jerking scene is better than thousands of pretentious literary films. However, sharp-eyed netizens discovered a detail that was not easy to detect.
2. Although he did not bow down, he insisted on sweeping the tomb of his teacher for many years
This detail is: As Ma Ji's favorite protégé, Feng Gong didn't even kneel down and kowtow! Some netizens believe that being able to have such a high status is lifted by the master with one hand, just like reborn parents, and it is not much to snort 90 times.
Some people also think of the scene of their fathers going to worship their ancestors: grandpa and dad need to kneel every time they go to sweep the tomb on Qingming Festival, and I think Teacher Feng Gong should also kneel, this is glory, not shame.
In fact, although Feng Gong did not kowtow, he spontaneously bowed several times when he left. This etiquette is thick enough. And his apprentice was also trained very well by Feng Gong, and he did not shake his wit on such occasions.
After everyone left, the smiling face on the tombstone still shone in the sun, as if they had forgotten their troubles. Of course, in addition to the voices of doubt, there are also many people who praise Feng Gong for not forgetting his roots and understanding etiquette.
Some netizens think: Feng Gong is the best one in my eyes, but he didn't attribute the credit to himself, but put the master first, which is too rare.
Perhaps noticing some provocative comments, Liu Quangang deleted the video after it became popular. Then it was re-released on April 4th, but unfortunately the number of views was far less than the first one.
Before that, Feng Gong would visit his teacher every year. After reaching the destination, Feng Gong would consciously take off his hat and then put down a bouquet of bright flowers. Bowing three times in a row is Feng Gong's habit, which has been untouchable and has persisted for many years.
Although many people think that it is the most sincere to knock their heads to bang bangbang, it is rare to be willing to insist on bowing for more than ten years in a row. Although Feng Gong is very talkative on stage, off the stage, he knows best who he has the most relationship with.
Sometimes, Feng Gong couldn't help but shed tears on his face, and sometimes, he couldn't help but choke tears in his eyes, but his respect for the master was sincere. On the day of the Qingming Festival, Feng Gong also personally released a tomb sweeping video, which quickly won 320,000 likes.
There are still many netizens who only learned that Ma Ji has been dead for many years after watching Feng Gong's video. Some people also recalled the famous work - "Universe Brand Cigarettes", and the jokes and ideas of that work seem to come from the sky.
For the sake of reality and original intention, Feng Gong has always adhered to his position, but he and Ma Ji have no chance to do it again in the glorious era created by him and Ma Ji in the cross talk world.
3. I have been in the art for many years and have a lot of affection with Ma Ji
At the moment, whether it is a festival sketch or an ordinary cross talk performance, it is like being emasculated for something. At the beginning, Ma Ji and Feng Gong's costumes were also very simple, and the props were even so simple that they only needed a roast chicken and a folding fan.
On the other hand, some current cross talk programs are eager to use the four-character idioms that have been around for 5,000 years, but when you look at the core, you are ruined. For his teacher, Feng Gong not only recognized his talent, but also was full of admiration.
In order to get closer to Ma Ji, he seriously created literary and artistic works, and even appeared on the Spring Festival Gala under Ma Ji's recommendation. In the most enthusiastic years, Feng Gong did not follow the wrong person, and it was thanks to his mentor that his talent was seen and liked by everyone.
On the stage of "Chinese Literature and Art", Feng Gong once said: He is the father in my heart. In addition to making Feng Gong's fate take a huge turn, Ma Ji also gave Feng Gong a lot of novel ideas and inspiration.
In the words of the apprentice: this is the destined relationship. Even if he was lingering on the sickbed, Master couldn't let go of Feng Gong. He and Feng Gong talked a lot about the philosophy of art and life, and optimistically joked about Feng Gong's name.
In Feng Gong's heart, he had already recognized that his teacher was a loving father, but Ma Ji did not have any "official frame", and even called his apprentices brothers. Because Ma Ji adopts an encouraging education, he is reluctant to beat and scold.
Perhaps, it is precisely because he is accustomed to mutual respect with his master that Feng Gong did not regard kneeling as a tomb sweeping ceremony.
Epilogue:
18 years have passed, if Ma Ji is still alive, he will definitely be able to create more unparalleled works with Feng Gong. It's a pity that Siren has passed away, and everyone can only see Mr. Ma's former talent through video.
