When Beijing Deyun Club was filming the new comedy "Wanchun Laughing Club", an unexpected "smashing" incident occurred, and Meng Hetang actually smashed and hung up the senior cross talk master Feng Gong on the spot. This is not the first time Deyun Club has done this kind of thing, but this time the situation seems to be a bit special.
Guo Degang, as the founder of Deyun Club, has won the love of countless audiences with his unique interpretation style and bold performing arts. But this is not the first time he has made headlines for "smashing". This seemingly playful but profound way of performing has always been one of Deyun Club's signature humorous techniques.
The filming scene of "Wanchun Laughing Club". In this recording, Meng Hetang, a young actor from Deyun Club, "smashed" Feng Gong on the spot in full view. Feng Gong, as a heavyweight in the Chinese cross talk industry, has made significant improvements to the art of cross talk, and his performance style is deeply loved and respected by the audience.
The cause of the incident seems simple, yet complex. On the stage of Deyun Club, the use of "smashing" as a humorous expression is nothing new, but when this kind of behavior happens to a veteran artist like Feng Gong, it can't help but feel a little out of place.
As early as a few years ago, Guo Degang himself "smashed" Feng Gong in a performance. It was in Guo Degang's innovative cross talk "I want to go to the Spring Festival Gala", in which he skillfully used stage language and situation to reinterpret Feng Gong's classic foreign car bridge.
When Meng Hetang "smashed" Feng Gong again at the filming site of "Wanchun Laughing Club", this behavior seemed to make this old incident reappear in the rivers and lakes. Unlike many years ago, this time Feng Gong did not show obvious displeasure. He seems to be quite tolerant of this way of acting, and even affirmed Guo Degang's talent afterwards.
The audience in the cross talk industry has gradually accepted a more open and innovative way of performing. Guo Degang and Deyun Club's position in the cross talk industry is also becoming more and more stable, which makes them more bold and free in expressing art. Feng Gong's generosity and open-mindedness as a veteran artist also provide a broader stage for this artistic expression.
Deyun Club has always been responsible for respecting its predecessors and inheriting the art of cross talk, and this "smashing" is not disrespectful to Feng Gong personally, but an artistic attempt and expression. Feng Gong's contribution to the entire cross talk industry is unparalleled, and everyone in Deyun Club knows this well and has the highest respect for him.
Regarding the specific details of this incident, it can be seen from the video at the scene that Meng Hetang suddenly took out a prop during the performance and "smashed" it at Feng Gong in an exaggerated way, and then the scene fell into a brief silence. Feng Gong responded to Meng Hetang in a playful way, and the scene was immediately filled with applause and laughter.
Some supporters believe that this is exactly the innovation and vitality that cross talk should have, while some critics think that it destroys the solemnity of cross talk art. However, it is undeniable that whether for or against, this incident has drawn more people's attention to the modern interpretation of the traditional art of cross talk, as well as its status and influence in contemporary society.
