Watching the sunset gradually slide towards the western horizon, the last rays of the sunset gently falling on Chen Peisi's weather-beaten face, his eyes revealing endless kindness and tranquility. Sitting next to him was his youngest granddaughter, smiling and telling him all the interesting things she had encountered in the kindergarten today.
Chen Peisi smiled, patiently listened to her granddaughter's childish words, and laughed heartily from time to time, which made her granddaughter even more excited.
This is Chen Peisi's old age, immersed in happiness, tranquility and family laughter. However, when he looks back on his artistic journey, he can't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.
As an outstanding comedian, he has experienced the vicissitudes of life and tasted all the flavors of the world. From unknown to famous, from the peak of his career to the low point of his life, and finally to regain his dream...... The hardships along the way are hard to describe in words.
Chen Peisi sighed deeply, looked up at the fading remnant sun in the sky, and his thoughts drifted back to the past years. He vividly remembers how he studied Peking Opera with his father Chen Qiang as a child, and his love for this ancient performing art was in full swing.
However, the good times are always short-lived. Soon after, he was forced to go to the countryside to join the queue, and his dreams were put on hold.
However, fate did not abandon him completely. After leaving the countryside, Chen Peisi made a name for himself in the comedy industry with his outstanding acting talent, and the sketch "Eating Noodles" he co-created with his partner Zhu Shimao became popular all over the country and became a well-known classic.
Chen Peisi was born into a family of theaters, and his father, Chen Qiang, was a well-known Peking Opera artist at that time. Under the influence of such a family atmosphere, Chen Peisi's love for the art of opera naturally sprouted.
Whenever Chen Qiang rehearsed at home, the young Chen Peisi would always stand quietly by the side, watching intently, and sometimes he would even be pulled by his father to give him instructions on basic skills. Although he was still young, he was always attentive to his studies, as if he had been born with the talent of an artist.
Seeing his son's obsession with art, Chen Qiang was full of satisfaction and looked forward to one day carrying forward this family tradition.
However, due to some special historical reasons, Chen Peisi had to leave Beijing and go to the countryside to join the queue. In this way, he gradually distanced himself from the path of art.
Although during those years spent in the countryside, Chen Peisi still burned his ardent stage dream in his heart, but the hardships of the living environment made him like a lonely sail floating on the sea, distant and untouchable.
However, many years later, the wheel of fortune quietly kicks in in his life, the color of fate is revived, and he finally has the opportunity to realize his dream, like a sweet spring in the desert, re-embarking on the journey of art, and finally forging his glorious status as a master of comedy.
Just as Chen Peisi's acting career was booming, a sudden storm hit him mercilessly. In 1984, he and his partner Zhu Shimao co-created the sketch "Eating Noodles", which was widely praised across the country and became a topic of conversation.
However, who would have expected that this prestigious classic would suffer from malicious plagiarism and piracy by merchants.
When Chen Peisi learned the news, his heart was filled with anger and grief. As an actor, it is not easy to create such excellent works, but now that the fruits of his hard work have been trampled on by others, how can he not feel cold? What's even more distressing is that the merchant has no moral bottom line, knowing his wrong behavior, but still going his own way, and treating Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao with an arrogant and rude attitude.
Faced with such a shameless act, Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao had to take the weapon of the law and sue the wanton plagiarism merchant to court. Luckily, the law eventually gave them justice, and they won the case and received a generous amount of damages.
However, this lawsuit has cost Chen Peisi dearly, and he has lost a precious opportunity to show his talent on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. For an actor, what an honor it is to be able to stand on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, but now he has missed it, Chen Peisi is undoubtedly deeply affected.
In the following period, Chen Peisi's life fell into a trough. Having lost their financial resources, the family's savings were quickly depleted. Seeing that his wife's meager salary could not support the whole family, in order to make ends meet, Chen Peisi had to lease a piece of land and devote himself to agricultural production.
After experiencing a low point in his life, Chen Peisi did not choose to give up. He always had the dream of returning to the stage in his heart, and looked forward to one day being able to devote himself to comedy again.
Sure enough, the goddess of opportunity has not forgotten this persistent artist.
In 1989, Chen Peisi once again became the focus of attention with his stunning performance in the sketch "Pepper Noodles"! The audience was amused by his energetic and humorous performance, and applause and laughter followed. It was from then on that Chen Peisi returned to his own stage, and the haze that once shrouded his heart disappeared.
As a well-known comedy superstar, Chen Peisi's return this time has undoubtedly triggered a warm response across the country. Commercial endorsements and TV series invitations poured into his life like snowflakes, and his popularity and wealth also rose rapidly like a rocket. With a solid economic foundation, Chen Peisi was finally able to devote himself to new artistic creations.
What's even more gratifying is that at this time, Chen Peisi's beloved son Chen Dayu also devoted himself to the comedy career. Chen Dayu has shown excellent acting talent since he was a child, and Chen Peisi is full of joy about it. Although he had some doubts at first, he finally firmly chose to support his son's decision.
As a result, Chen Peisi personally served as Chen Dayu's mentor and taught him the valuable experience and experience he had accumulated over the years. Under the careful guidance of his father, Chen Dayu quickly mastered a set of exquisite skills and began to make a name for himself in the field of comedy.
When Chen Dayu had a certain strength, Chen Peisi did not hesitate to push him to a bigger stage and let him show his talent to the fullest. As expected, Chen Dayu did not live up to his father's high expectations, and he quickly rose to become the king of a new generation of comedy with his outstanding performances, and no one else could match the limelight. Once, the master and apprentice worked together to create the famous sketch "Top Cow", which can be described as a household name and loved by the audience.
Watching the father and son cooperate tacitly and complement each other on the stage, the audience was deeply touched by this unique family relationship.
Talking about how Chen Dayu grew into today's comedy master, the journey can be described as full of twists and turns. At first, in order to let his son have a bright future, Chen Peisi did not hesitate to spend 300,000 yuan to send him abroad to study cytology. However, soon after, Chen Dayu complained to his father, saying that he had never been able to understand the subject of biology and felt extremely troubled.
Although Mr. Chen Peisi is a little suspicious of his son's deep affection for a comedy career, after all, as a veteran theater artist, he is well aware of the difficulties and dangers involved in this path. However, when he witnessed his son's perseverance, he finally chose to respect his personal interests and agreed to let him temporarily suspend his studies and return to China to recuperate.
Since then, Mr. Chen's unrestrained lifestyle in China has once again worried Mr. Chen Peisi. He insisted that his son return to school and continue his studies, and he would never tolerate him wasting his time like this.
As a result, it was inevitable that some disagreements and arguments arose between father and son.
Until one day, Mr. Chen Peisi stumbled upon his son's carefully revised script, and deep down he suddenly realized how unique and extraordinary his son's talent in comedy creation was. The originally plain storyline has been reinterpreted and interpreted under Chen Dayu's wonderful brushstrokes, which makes people laugh.
Mr. Chen Peisi praised his son's talent from the bottom of his heart, and finally made up his mind to train him to become an outstanding comedian.
Since then, Mr. Chen Peisi has personally taken on the role of Chen Dayu's mentor, and has devoted all his wealth of experience to him. After Chen Dayu mastered a superb skill, Mr. Chen Peisi once again made an impassioned decision - to push his son to a broader stage, let him take responsibility independently, and show his talent to the fullest.
Once again, this decision proved to be a wise move. With the full support and careful care of Mr. Chen Peisi, Chen Dayu finally successfully transformed into a generation of cutting-edge comedy masters, inheriting and carrying forward his father's comedy art path.
