On July 8, 2024, bad news came in the entertainment industry, and according to various sources, it was confirmed that the famous Northeast duo turned actor Zhai Bo died at his home in Shenyang at the age of 65.
The news of Zhai Bo's death was first made public by his apprentice Fang Hedi.
Fang Hedi is a cross talk actor and an excellent host, many people know that he is the apprentice of the famous cross talk actor Guo Degang, whose real name is Fang Xiaoman.
More than ten years ago, when Fang Hedi participated in a comedy program "Smiling Proud Jianghu" on Tianjin Satellite TV, he was appreciated by Guo Degang and worshipped Guo Degang as his teacher at the semi-final recording site.
In the second year, Fang Hedi participated in the apprenticeship ceremony of the Deyun Society Crane Character Academy and officially became Guo Degang's disciple.
After apprenticeship, Fang Hedi did not perform in Deyun Club, his current work unit is the cross talk new force theater, yes, it is the cross talk new force founded by Lu Xin and Yuhao.
What everyone doesn't know is that Fang Hedi, who is from Jilin in Northeast China, is still the apprentice of the famous two-person actor Zhai Bo.
In Fang Hedi's sophomore year of high school, by chance, he met the two-person actor Zhai Bo, and he fell in love with the two-person turner.
At that time, he would go to the theater to watch Zhai Bo's performances every Saturday and Sunday, and he saved his usual living expenses to buy handkerchiefs, tapes, CDs, etc., which the two of them used for the two.
Fang Hedi's study and love for the two of them, Zhai Bo saw it in his eyes.
After going to college, Fang Hedi worshiped under Zhai Bo as he wished, and he could sing many professional two-person actors who couldn't sing the main plays.
On the morning of July 8, Fang Hedi revealed the news of his mentor Zhai Bo's death this morning through social platforms.
He said, "Master walked peacefully and did not suffer any sin."
Fang Hedi didn't express too much emotion, and he would be filial to his master in the coming days, which was better than saying anything beautiful.
Fang Hedi specially thanked the audience for their love for Master, if everyone misses him, listen to his play on the Internet.
Many years ago, Zhai Bo chatted with Fang Hedi, hoping that he would not let go of the mourning music after he left, just put a tune accompaniment, he wanted everyone to always remember the happy little old man.
As an excellent two-person actor, Zhai Bo is very famous in the three eastern provinces, but he is really well-known to audiences across the country, or he relies on Zhao Benshan's TV series "Liu Laogen", in which he plays "Lao Zhai Tou".
That's right, it's the old Zhai Tou who watches the loudspeaker in the village committee and can turn the two of them with one hand.
Zhai Bo is Zhao Benshan's first apprentice and was once highly praised by his master.
The master and apprentice have a deep fate, both of them are from Kaiyuan, Tieling, Liaoning, and Zhao Benshan is two years older than Zhai Bo. At that time, the two of them were in the same industry, so they knew each other when they were young, and their relationship was not bad.
After Zhao Benshan became popular, he was transferred from the Tieling County Troupe to the city troupe, and the Tieling County Troupe, which lacked a pillar, found Zhai Bo.
Zhai Bo provoked the girder as soon as he came, and was later elected as the head of the regiment because of his outstanding performance.
Because he was falsely accused of corruption, Zhai Bo was angry, so he left the Tieling Troupe, and then traveled with his wife to Jilin Siping, Gongzhuling, Liaoyuan, Jilin and other places to sing as a duo.
At the end of 97, Zhai Bo and his wife came to the Changchun Peace Theater, and the younger generations called him "Dad".
In the second year, CCTV filmed a Chinese New Year drama called "Farmhouse December" in the Northeast, starring Gao Xiumei and Lei Kesheng, the story takes place in the rural areas of Northeast China.
It was through this drama that Zhao Benshan saw his former old friend Zhai Bo.
At that time, Zhao Benshan had appeared on the stage of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala many times, and as soon as the two met, Zhao Benshan held Zhai Bo's hand and said, "It's time, it's time, I'll hold you, and you will be a Chinese celebrity immediately." ”
At that time, Zhao Benshan was intending to open the mountain to accept apprentices, on the one hand, in order to carry forward the art of the Northeast two-person transfer, and on the other hand, it was also for him to open Liu Laogen Grand Stage Theater in the future to attract talents.
In August 2001, Zhao Benshan held the first "Benshan Cup" two-person transfer competition in Tieling, and Zhai Bo won the gold medal in one fell swoop.
Although the award is important, what is more important is that Zhai Bo became Zhao Benshan's first apprentice.
It is said that He Qingkui had already finished writing the script of "Liu Laogen" at that time, but at Zhao Benshan's strong request, he insisted on adding a role to Zhai Bo, that is, "Old Zhai Tou".
However, the cooperation between master and apprentice did not last long, and Zhai Bo left the Liaoning Folk Art Troupe.
There are different opinions on the Internet about the reason, and there are more rumors that Zhai Bo thinks that Zhao Benshan gave too little money, disobeys the company's scheduling arrangement, and goes outside to take private work privately, and is removed from the apprentice team by Zhao Benshan.
Therefore, we see in the public information that Zhao Benshan's eldest apprentice is "Township Chief Feng" Li Zhengchun, not Zhai Bo.
After leaving Benshan Media, the audience's attention to Zhai Bo naturally became less.
It is said that ten years ago, Zhai Bo experienced a car accident that caused cerebellar atrophy and memory loss, and he no longer knew people very well.
In May 2018, the news of Zhai Bo's disappearance circulated on the Internet, and the reporter contacted Ma Shouliang, the head of the Tieling County Troupe, who confirmed that Zhai Bo had suffered from cerebellar atrophy for many years and basically did not know anyone.
Later, with the joint efforts of everyone, Zhai Bo was recovered.
Since then, Zhai Bo has been recuperating at home and rarely appears in public.
Unexpectedly, hearing the news of Zhai Bo after many years turned out to be the bad news of his death.
"The sunset is dark in the West Mountain, hey, hey~ Ouch......" As soon as Zhai Bo left, there was no god in the world to tune the old Zhai's head.
May heaven be free from sickness, and the old gentleman will go all the way!
