Preamble:
What makes a person? Family, or talent, or opportunity and effort?
When we look back at Yue Yunpeng's growth process, these questions may be answered.
What kind of thinking does the story of the young man who was born in poverty but reached the peak step by step with unremitting perseverance?
Does it make us more convinced that our destiny is in our own hands, and that if we persevere, we can create miracles?
Let's follow the footsteps of time, walk into Yue Yunpeng's life journey, and explore the secret behind his success.
Born in the countryside, his early life was difficult
In April 1985, a baby boy fell to the ground in a small village in Nanle County, Henan Province.
This boy is Yue Yunpeng, a well-known cross talk actor in the future.
He was born into a poor rural family, his parents barely made ends meet, and he had to support seven children.
Yue Yunpeng is the sixth in line, with five older sisters and a younger brother.
In an era of material scarcity, the family's survival situation can be imagined.
The lack of material things did not stop the sisters from loving Yue Yunpeng.
In that era of lack of food and clothing, the sisters often secretly put their own food in their younger brother's bowl, and even stayed up late to sew new shoes for him.
Yue Yunpeng always remembered the kindness of his sisters, and even if he gained fame and fortune later, he never forgot to repay them.
This brotherhood has become the warmest background color in his life.
Poverty eventually ruined Yue Yunpeng's studies.
When he was 14 years old, his family could not afford the school fees, so he had to drop out of school and go out to work.
The ignorant boy left his hometown in this way and went on an unknown journey in life.
He knew that only by working hard could he change the situation of his family and bring a better life to his parents and sisters.
The sisters looked at their brother's lonely back, and their hearts were full of reluctance, but they couldn't do anything about it.
Who would have thought that this dropout child would one day appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala and become a star in the spotlight?
But it was also this arduous period that sharpened Yue Yunpeng's indomitable will and laid the foundation for his future success.
Yue Yunpeng met his master Guo Degang by chance, and his fate was rewritten from then on
In 2003, a turning point in fate crept in.
Eighteen-year-old Yue Yunpeng came to Beijing to work as a waiter in a restaurant.
An old Beijing customer who frequented him saw his potential and strongly recommended him to learn cross talk from Guo Degang as a teacher.
This customer keenly discovered that Yue Yunpeng had the strength to not admit defeat, and he was smart and clever, which was suitable for learning cross talk.
Yue Yunpeng went to Deyun Club with the mentality of giving it a try.
Guo Degang's cross talk was very interesting, which fascinated him.
So, he resolutely quit his job as a waiter, began to follow Guo Degang to learn art, and started his career as a cross talk actor.
This decision changed the trajectory of his life and injected a fresh blood into the cross talk industry.
However, the road to learning art is far more difficult than imagined.
Yue Yunpeng's level of education is not high, and he is not good at speaking Mandarin, compared with a group of talented brothers, he seems out of place, and can only do miscellaneous work silently.
But he was not discouraged, but used all his time to study and practice diligently, improving himself bit by bit.
He understands that talent may be important, but what is more important is dedication and perseverance.
It was unfavorable to be a teacher, and Yue Yunpeng encountered workplace violence and was almost expelled
After two years, Yue Yunpeng finally had the opportunity to perform on stage.
In 2005, when he excitedly stood on the stage, he didn't expect the performance to end in failure.
He finished the original ten minutes of cross talk in only three minutes, and the audience boos one after another.
This is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the fledgling Yue Yunpeng.
His self-confidence was hit hard, and he even doubted whether he had made the right choice at one point.
For a time, Yue Yunpeng became the target of everyone.
Other disciples accused him of not having the talent to speak cross talk, and persuaded Guo Degang to expel him.
Yue Yunpeng once fell into self-doubt, and even thought about going home to farm.
However, Master Guo Degang did not give up on him, but supported him in public, allowing him to stay by his side with peace of mind.
Guo Degang values Yue Yunpeng's down-to-earth, diligent and hard-working qualities, and he believes that as long as he is given time and opportunities, Yue Yunpeng will definitely be able to become a talent.
Guo Degang's trust encouraged Yue Yunpeng.
In order to live up to his master's expectations, he studied the art of cross talk even harder than before.
In this way, the stupid bird flew first, and through unremitting efforts, Yue Yunpeng's cross talk level improved by leaps and bounds, and when he took the stage again, his performance won the applause of the audience.
This time, he proved himself with his strength and made those doubts disappear.
But compared with his senior brother Cao Yunjin at that time, Yue Yunpeng was far from famous and status.
Cao Yunjin is Guo Degang's favorite apprentice, and often bullies Yue Yunpeng on stage.
During a performance, Cao Yunjin was dissatisfied with Yue Yunpeng stealing his limelight, so he choked his neck in public.
Although Yue Yunpeng was aggrieved, he never cared, endured silently, and honed his skills.
He knows that in this industry, strength is the foundation of his foothold, and only by constantly improving himself can he win respect.
Leave a place waiting for you to return
With his extraordinary efforts, Yue Yunpeng gradually emerged in the cross talk industry, his fame gradually rose, and his salary continued to rise.
And the first thing he did after earning money was to repay his sisters for their nurturing kindness.
With the support of his wife, he bought a house for each of his five sisters.
This touched and relieved the older sisters, and their younger brother finally got ahead and lived a good life.
For the only younger brother, Yue Yunpeng also misses it.
After his father's death, he wanted to take his younger brother into the city so that he could enjoy a prosperous life together.
Unexpectedly, his younger brother politely rejected his kindness.
The younger brother said that he would stay in the countryside to take care of his mother and wait for his brother to come home.
The filial piety and sensibility of his younger brother deeply moved Yue Yunpeng.
Yue Yunpeng burst into tears when he heard this.
He understands that his younger brother is to leave him a memory, no matter how hard he works outside in the future, there will always be a harbor waiting for him in his hometown.
Nowadays, although the brothers are separated, they can always connect with each other through video.
Every time the farming season is busy, the younger brother will shout in front of the camera: "Brother, you can come back to collect grain." "
This simple sentence is full of strong family affection and longing.
Epilogue:
Yue Yunpeng's story tells us that the height of life is never determined by your origin, but by how you grow.
In the face of adversity, he did not give up, but chose to struggle.
In the face of slander, he did not resent it, but chose to persevere.
In the face of family affection, he did not forget, but chose to be grateful.
It is this positive, optimistic and persevering attitude towards life that has led him to success.
He cultivates himself with perseverance and hard work, and treats others with sincerity and kindness.
This is the secret of Yue Yunpeng's ability to transform from a rural teenager to a pillar of Deyun Club and win the love of the audience.
His inspirational life is worthy of learning and admiration from every ordinary person.
In this impetuous era, we need a model like Yue Yunpeng who is down-to-earth and always maintains a pure heart.
Let us take Yue Yunpeng as an example, on the road of our own life, water hope with sweat, harvest friendship with sincerity, and believe that as long as we stick to our dreams, we will eventually come out.
No matter how far the road ahead, please always believe that in the far distance, there will always be a light for you to illuminate the direction you are going.
And that light may be the direction of your efforts, the beliefs you stick to, and your unchanging original intention.
