In today's vibrant field of cross talk, the once brilliant name - He Yunwei has gradually faded out of people's sight. Whenever he appears in various variety shows or public places, he will inevitably encounter merciless condemnation from netizens and even dig deep into his privacy, which is troubled.
And those piercing accusations, such as "traitor" and "deceiving teachers and destroying ancestors", followed him closely behind him like lingering shadows.
Perhaps in the silent middle of the night, He Yunwei would reflect alone and ask himself if he regretted the decision to leave Deyun Club with his mentor Guo Degang. Good is rewarded with good, evil has evil consequences, and the way of heaven is good reincarnation, which seems to have become his fate in this life.
Today, he can only sell his calligraphy and paintings on live broadcast platforms to make a living, but there are few buyers. Back then, he was the focus of everyone's attention on the stage, but now he is so down, which is undoubtedly a heavy blow to a cross talk artist.
However, to explore why He Yunwei betrayed Shimen Deyun Club, we have to go back to the "Black August" in 2010 when Deyun Club was in trouble.
That year, Deyun Club had just gained a foothold in Beijing, and everything was developing steadily, but it suffered wave after wave of heavy blows. First, Cao Yunjin made a big fuss at Guo Degang's birthday party, causing an uproar.
On the same day, Cao Yunjin lost his temper after drinking, behaved arrogantly, and even released cruel words of "quitting Deyun Club", which caused the originally thriving Deyun Club to fall into chaos.
Subsequently, the government introduced a new policy of "anti-three customs", which undoubtedly made the living space of Deyun Club worse. However, what really put Deyun Club in a desperate situation was the conflict with a reporter from Beijing TV.
A reporter from Beijing TV suspected that Guo Degang was suspected of illegally occupying land to build a luxury residence, so he secretly infiltrated Guo's villa to investigate and collect evidence. However, his actions were discovered by Guo Degang's apprentice Li Hebiao, and the two immediately engaged in a fierce physical altercation.
The incident of "Guo Degang's disciples beating reporters" quickly became the focus of social attention, and Deyun Club was labeled as "morally corrupt".
In the end, under the strong pressure of public opinion, Deyun Club was forced to suspend business for rectification, and the daily economic loss was as high as hundreds of thousands of yuan. This smash hit cross talk group has fallen into a life-and-death crisis.
Just when Deyun Club was suffering from that major crisis, He Yunwei, who was valued by Guo Degang and had high hopes from everyone and regarded as his successor, made the decision to betray his master, which involved a deep and complex master-apprentice relationship between them. Back in 1998, Guo Degang, Yu Qian, Zhang Wenshun and others participated in the grand event and created the "Beijing Cross Talk Conference". As a hot-blooded young man obsessed with the art of cross talk, He Yunwei always appears at every performance venue on time, and his dedicated eyes and dedicated performance deeply attract Guo Degang's attention.
He Yunwei not only has outstanding talent, but also has the advantage of a local hukou in Beijing, which makes Guo Degang see him as a good candidate to train a successor. Since then, Guo Degang has devoted endless love to He Yunwei, and has been particularly attentive in classroom teaching. What's even more touching is that whenever there is individual counseling, Guo Degang will even deliberately close the doors and windows to ensure that there is no outside interference.
However, in stark contrast to He Yunwei, another apprentice, Cao Yunjin, was severely reprimanded by Guo Degang many times, but He Yunwei was never blamed at all. The reason is nothing more than because "He Yunwei needs to be cared for, and Cao Yunjin needs to be spurred". In that era when every apprentice had to pay tuition, He Yunwei was the only exception, and he never bothered about tuition.
As He Yunwei's skills are becoming more and more sophisticated, Guo Degang takes him on stage every time he performs, hoping to take this opportunity to broaden his horizons and accumulate more stage experience. It can be seen from this that Guo Degang has put in so much effort to this beloved disciple that when he betrayed his master, Guo Degang's heart was full of anger and regret.
In the face of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, He Yunwei did not hesitate to seize the opportunity to leave Deyun Club. That was the event that happened in 2007 - Guo Degang's mentor Hou Yaowen died of a myocardial infarction, and the Hou brothers broke out into a fierce conflict over the inheritance, causing an internal dispute. Guo Degang was forced to leave the division in this infighting, and the mainstream cross talk world once again marginalized him.
It was precisely because of witnessing such a heavy blow to the division that He Yunwei resolutely chose to betray. He decisively left Deyun Club and devoted himself to the Beijing Quyi Association. What's worse is that he even took advantage of the situation to poach Li Jing, an important partner of Deyun Club, which is undoubtedly worse for Deyun Club, which is at a low point.
In an instant, He Yunwei quickly stood out under the leadership of Ms. Li Jing and became one of the "leading figures" in Beijing's quyi industry. He struck while the iron was hot, participated in the grand event with Li Jing, and founded the "Beijing Starry Night Crosstalk Museum", trying to reshape the former glory of Deyun Club on this new stage.
Not only that, He Yunwei also made no secret of his ambitions, actively recruited many "fellow brothers" who had been under Guo Degang, openly challenged his mentor Guo Degang, and launched a fierce competition. For example, Yue Yunpeng, Sun Yue, Guo Qilin and other former Guo disciples have now taken refuge in his banner.
During that time, He Yunwei's career flourished, and he became a rising star fully supported by Beijing TV, frequently active in various variety shows and stages, and won warm applause from the audience. However, the glory did not last long, and soon after, the program "Starry Night Crosstalk Club" carefully planned by Beijing TV for him and Li Jing had to face the fate of being discontinued due to poor ratings. The relationship between the two came to an end, and their careers fell into an unprecedented trough.
In the face of He Yunwei's "treachery" and "ungrateful" behavior, Guo Degang was naturally furious. In 2016, when a grand apprenticeship ceremony was held for his beloved apprentices Yue Yunpeng and Luan Yunping, he finally gave He Yunwei a heavy blow with thunderous means.
In front of all his apprentices, Guo Degang publicly announced that He Yunwei and Cao Yunjin would be expelled from the school. On the list of disciples of the "cloud" character department, he mercilessly accused the two of "deceiving their teachers and destroying their ancestors, violating human morality", "betraying their teachers in difficult situations, pursuing glory and wealth, maliciously slandering and framing others". In order to warn future generations, he resolutely decided to withdraw the stage name of the two with the word "cloud" and expel them from the division forever.
This sharply reprimanded is not only a harsh criticism of the past behavior of the two, but also completely exposes their ugly features of "treachery" and "ingratitude". In the face of such a harsh accusation from his teacher, Cao Yunjin then published a long article on the Internet, complaining with grief and indignation about Guo Degang's long-term exploitation and oppression.
However, as a senior senior, Guo Degang was not fooled by his rhetoric, but remained calm and responded firmly: "They just want me to respond so that they can take the opportunity to speak out. However, there is no need to cater to them.
Regarding He Yunwei's behavior, people immediately saw his true face. He openly stated that he no longer used his original name "He Wei", but wanted to completely dissociate himself from Deyun Club. However, the words were still in his ears, and he changed his stage name to "He Yuan" in an instant, embarrassingly using his former fame to attract attention to him.
Helplessly, He Yunwei's practice of "turning his hands over to clouds and rain" finally brought him a painful price. In a subsequent cross talk competition, he valued a newcomer - Yan Jiabao. He was full of praise for this young man's outstanding performance in announcing the name of the dish and singing Hebei Bangzi.
Therefore, He Yunwei was ecstatic, and did not hesitate to include this promising rookie under his disciple, regarded him as his right-hand man, and did his best to cultivate him. In the following days, he can be said to have worked hard to create his own stage for this beloved disciple on the screen of major popular variety shows such as "Greeting with a Smile" and "Heroes' Meeting".
It is true that under the careful care and strong support of Master He Yunwei, Yan Jiabao's popularity has increased day by day, and he has gradually emerged from Beijing TV, and finally successfully entered the hall of honor of CCTV.
However, just when the relationship between the teacher and the student seemed to be intimate, an eye-popping "master-apprentice against each other" incident suddenly broke out.
As his fame rose, Yan Jiabao began to show his "ambition". Whether at various events or in front of the camera, he did not mention anything about his mentor He Yunwei, but attributed all his achievements to his unremitting efforts.
He even openly stated that he had no teacher, that is, he did not recognize He Yunwei as his master.
The scenes of the past were staged again, but this time the object of betrayal was changed from Guo Degang to He Yunwei. The former mentor has now become the object of spurning by everyone.
Yan Jiabao scoffed at He Yunwei, but frequently praised the topic of Deyun Club on the Internet. He Yunwei's hard work on this disciple eventually turned into a farce.
