First of all, we want to pay attention to Chen Peisi, a sketch artist who reached the peak of his career in the 90s of the last century, his unique performance art and deep portrayal of the character's personality have fascinated the audience! Whenever the Spring Festival is coming, countless audiences are looking forward to this humorous and funny master to shine on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, using his rich facial expressions and exaggerated body movements to bring laughter and laughter to everyone and start the new year.
The classic sketches he created are like bright pearls, shining with endless light. For example, in the work "Pepper Noodles", Chen Peisi did not hesitate to fight in order to compete for that handful of pepper noodles, roaring again and again, and the crazy image of sleepiness made the audience laugh; And in "Mutton Skewers", he plays the greasy, dark-skinned little trader who stares greedily at the mutton skewers, for fear that others will steal the business from him.
These works have won warm applause and popularity from the audience, making Chen Peisi a household name in comedy.
However, just when Chen Peisi's career was in full swing, an incident occurred that made people laugh and cry. One day, Chen Peisi unexpectedly discovered that the wonderful sketches he had worked so hard to create were actually included in pirated CDs for sale by criminals, which undoubtedly seriously infringed on his intellectual property rights.
In the face of such a predicament, although he seemed insignificant in front of CCTV, Chen Peisi did not choose to back down. He firmly defended his rights and interests, on the one hand, actively collected evidence, on the other hand, invested a lot of money to hire a team of lawyers, and finally sued CCTV in court, launching a fierce battle for rights protection.
Next, we want to review Chen Peisi's growth process. The reason why he was able to achieve what he is today can actually be traced back to the 80s of the last century. At that time, he met Zhu Shimao, who also had a comedy dream, and the two were like two clear springs, gushing out and converging into a rare creative force.
At that time, singing, dancing and cross talk undoubtedly dominated the stage, and the new and eye-catching form of comedy was not yet well known, let alone on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala that the people of the whole country were looking forward to.
However, the two artists, Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao, did not choose to stick to the rules, but bravely chose to challenge themselves, and decided to use sketches, a novel and unique performance art form, to open up a world of their own.
As a result, like eagles soaring with wings, they began to tour the north and south of the motherland, bringing the art form of sketches to more audiences. Everywhere they went, their energetic and entertaining performances always elicited applause and laughter from the audience.
It wasn't long before their fame spread through the industry and they became well-known in the industry. All this attracted the attention of Huang Yihe, the director of the Spring Festival Gala that year. Director Huang was full of praise for their talents, so he invited them to show the charm of the sketch for the first time on the national stage of the Spring Festival Gala.
This is undoubtedly a major turning point in Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao's artistic careers. During the rehearsal, Director Huang asked them how to name this novel form of performance, and they replied without hesitation: "Sketch! Since then, a new form of performing arts has been officially born and quickly swept the country.
The classic work "Eating Noodles" co-created by Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao has become the pioneering work of sketch art.
3. A unique sketch master, whose skills are becoming more and more exquisite
With the new "stage" of sketches, Chen Peisi is at ease in it, and his skills are becoming more and more proficient. He abandoned the traditional cross talk sketches that relied on the expression of language baggage, and innovatively created a unique style, through exaggerated shapes, funny expressions and witty body movements to shape the characters, making each character lifelike and vivid.
As we all know, the arrogant and cute diner he played in "Eating Noodles" amused countless audiences with his happy appearance; In "Pepper Noodles", in order to compete for that pinch of fragrant pepper, he did not hesitate to fight and roar again and again, and the crazy appearance of persistent pursuit and salivation made people laugh.
In addition, in "Mutton Skewers", he plays the greasy, dark-skinned little trader, who salivates and loves every skewer of mutton skewers, for fear that others will snatch this delicious business from him.
Those impressive and deeply rooted classics have all made countless audiences fall in love with them and cheer, making Chen Peisi a decisive comedy giant in the hearts of the public!
It is not accidental to create Chen Peisi's outstanding achievements in showing his style on the road of acting and portraying the role deeply, first of all, thanks to his beloved father, the well-known actor Chen Qiang.
It is under the subtle and tireless influence of his father that Chen Peisi has been able to continue to climb the peak on the road of performing arts, and his skills have become more and more exquisite.
There was a time when Chen Peisi's family suffered unjustified injustice, criticized and belittled, and endured hardships because Chen Qiang played the image of the "wicked" too realistically in film and television works.
However, this experience was an incomparably precious life wealth for Chen Peisi, which made him feel the cold of the world, and tempered a more unwavering will and a heart as hard as a diamond in the face of adversity.
4. Devote yourself to the drama stage and continue to pursue your artistic dreams
When the sketch career entered a low point, Chen Peisi did not stop moving forward because of this. Although he temporarily left the stage of the Spring Festival Gala that once made him shine, his enthusiasm and dedication to art have always been the same.
As a result, this iron-clad man resolutely devoted himself to the new and challenging stage field of drama. Since 2001, he has been creating a series of excellent drama works, such as "Nursery", "Balcony", "Adou" and so on, and continues to burn his endless love for art on the new stage.
Time flies, and now Chen Peisi is over the age of old, but his attitude towards every performance is still meticulous and goes all out. Once, during a drama performance in Tianjin, there was a sudden power outage in the theater, and Chen Peisi himself was also in a high fever.
However, Chen Peisi did not flinch, gritted his teeth and persevered until the successful end of the performance, without the slightest hesitation. From his persistent pursuit of art, we can clearly feel Chen Peisi's fiery artistic heart.
This dedication not only stems from his personal tenacity, but also inherits and promotes the spirit of his ancestors who adhere to the original intention of art.
Dear audience friends, all of you are deeply moved by Mr. Chen Peisi's fiery enthusiasm for his artistic career and give him unlimited expectations, looking forward to his more outstanding achievements in the theater industry!
Fifth, the play has not ended, and the persistence is still there
The years have gradually left traces on Mr. Chen Peisi's face, but the unchanging persistent pursuit of art and the incomparably sincere enthusiasm are admirable.
In the face of the once glorious and angry image of the comedy giant who once swept the Spring Festival Gala is no longer so dazzling, we can't help but ask, will he stand in the center of the stage again?
However, looking back on his artistic journey, which is full of glory and ups and downs, even though he has experienced setbacks and even briefly "disappeared" on the traditional stage, his firm belief in art and pure heart have never wavered in the slightest.
With the changes of the times, the expression of comedy is constantly evolving. Language baggage gradually replaced facial expressions and became the main means of shaping characters. However, Mr. Chen Peisi has always insisted on himself, carried out unique exploration, and showed the essence of comedy art in a personal way with body language and exaggerated performances.
Since leaving the Spring Festival Gala, Mr. Chen Peisi once "disappeared" from the public eye, but he did not succumb to the pressure of reality because of this. On the contrary, he straightened his waist and continued to work the fertile soil of drama, and finally bloomed his own bright light again in this new field.
At the same time, Mr. Chen Peisi's sincere attitude towards art and his low-key style have won the love of the audience. A widely circulated anecdote is that at a time when the emerging marketing model of live streaming is prevalent, Mr. Chen Peisi's signature folding fan is only sold for dozens of yuan, which is in stark contrast to the "sky-high" products of many celebrities, fully demonstrating the people-friendly nature of his works and his indifferent attitude towards his career.
