Since the death of Mr. Gao Yingpei in 2002, young audiences have heard more about the legends in the industry, and those who have been fortunate enough to feel mr. Gao's on-site charm are lucky, and now people can only recall his style on the stage from some vague images left on the Internet.
Tianjin has always been a place where cross-talk masters have emerged, and Tianjin's cross-talk actors want to gain a bigger stage to open the market in Beijing, but Beijing's cross-talk actors really have enough confidence in their own level, and they also need to conquer the discerning Tianjin audience to be recognized by the industry.
The audience in Tianjin understands cross-talk, and does not rub sand in their eyes, you say well, they do not skimp on their applause, but they will not give any face when they say it badly, that is really not used to you. It's common to cheer you up and knock you off the stage.
And the famous cross-talk master Mr. Gao Yingpei completely conquered the most difficult to serve tianjin audience, Mr. Gao's typhoon is hot, brittle, in terms of life is also deeply master Zhao Peiru true biography, although Gao Yingpei later became Mr. Zhao Peiru's proud protégé, but in fact, at first Mr. Zhao was not satisfied with Gao Yingpei.
First of all, Gao Yingpei's innate conditions are general, myopia is more than a thousand degrees, and it is certainly inseparable from glasses in life, but there is no glasses on the stage to say cross-talk, even if it is two eyes smeared, it must be on the spot. Therefore, Zhao Peiru was not very willing to accept him, but seeing that Gao Yingpei was sincere and willing to work hard, Zhao Peiru accepted him out of the ordinary. Later, because his program often has "turning sand", that is to say, speaking Beijing dialect, baggage mouth, or Tianjin dialect sandwiched in the narrative, which is a taboo in cross-talk, Zhao Peiru is more traditional, and she is very dissatisfied with this.
Once Gao Yingpei's performance won a full house, after leaving the stage, I thought that Master Zhao Peiru would praise himself, but I did not expect That Zhao Peiru called him home and let him kneel against the wall for several hours. But in any case, using Tianjin dialect to conquer Tianjin audiences is Gao Yingpei's magic weapon.
Whether it is "Fishing" or "Awkward Words", it is a representative work of Gao Yingpei, which has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and so far when it comes to the classic "who intestines to introduce, who to introduce intestines" in "Awkward Words", everyone will only think of Gao Yingpei.
There are four styles of "handsome, selling, strange and bad" in the cross-talk industry, Gao Yingpei occupies a "sell" word, on the stage he is full of passion, but also spare no effort, using his exaggerated and enthusiastic performance to firmly control the audience's attention, and bring into the situation he has created, with a strong stage appeal. Gao Yingpei connected the three aspects of high-pitched voice and stage atmosphere and audience psychology to create an extraordinary stage effect, sweating profusely when he stepped down, and the audience was easily instigated.
For example, in the cross-talk "Unhealthy Wind", there is such a paragraph.
Gao Yingpei: You often hear people say that this person can do things, can do anything, can do everything - it is me. Not only am I almighty, but I'm also good at making friends – "universal glue".
Fan Zhenyu: What kind of work are you specifically responsible for?
High: Logistics.
Fan: What about logistics?
Gao: The back door is diligent.
Fan: When you go to work and don't work, you are busy with this, and your leaders do not criticize you?
Gao: Who says not to criticize? The criticism is sharp.
Fan: I knew you had to be criticized. How to criticize you?
Gao: "Universal glue, you are going to make mistakes like this!" What's the matter with you? The ribs you bought for me last time were not fat at all! ”
There was a burst of warm applause and shouting from the audience, frankly, this burden is not so colatic, but a sentence to the audience's heart, this undesirable phenomenon resonated with the audience, which is why Gao Yingpei has a mass base and can enliven the atmosphere of the scene.
Gao Yingpei's fiery performance style determines that he is suitable for performing satirical programs. From individual cadres who use power for personal gain, to small people who speculate on drilling camps, to parents who dot on their children, small clerks who prevaricate and prevaricate, filial piety who are feudal superstitious, and old masters who like the new and hate the old, all of them are in tune with the shortcomings of the times, and the exquisite portrait interpreted by Mr. Gao Yingpei has greatly addicted the audience.
How popular was Gao Yingpei in Tianjin? Those descendants of the cross-talk industry are very vocal, apprentice Meng Fangui said, first of all, Gao Yingpei and the audience kissed, seeing the audience is like seeing relatives, as soon as he came on stage, he hung his voice and shouted: "Oh, all are coming!" Hello everyone, hello everyone". In the words of Meng Fangui: "He is like a fire, burning the audience." Yang Shaohua, a cross-talk colleague who is also in Tianjin, said it well: "Gao Yingpei's baggage shakes out of the stage like a match, stabbing!" Spike! One after another, deafening.".
Whether the cross-talk actor is really successful, whether he can hold the audience, in fact, the moment you take the stage, you will basically see the difference, the audience likes you, there are expectations for you, this cross-talk is easy to say next.
Li Guosheng said that there is a legend in Tianjin that for many years the announcer could not report Fan Zhenyu's name, and the announcer here just said: Next, please enjoy the cross-talk "Fishing", performers Gao Yingpei, Fan Zhenyu. However, when Gao Yingpei's name was just pronounced, the cheers below "overturned" the entire theater, directly "drowning" Fan Zhenyu's name.
The reaction in the audience, in The words of Li Jiacun, was a landslide, which made people panic, thousands of people in the stadium were full, and the eardrums of the applause were painful. People today may not think that the audience can get up from the chairs and jump on the stage, which is definitely a scene in the Tianjin cross-talk industry. It can be said that to some extent, Gao Yingpei changed the way of chasing stars of cross-talk fans, whenever Gao Yingpei walked on the street, people would shout when they saw him: "Second, his mother, come with a big wooden basin!" ”。
This is the cross-talk actor with a work, there are two kinds of good actors, one is that the actor is famous, but I can't remember what works he has performed, and the other kind of actor is that you don't think of his name first when you see him, but you think of the role in his work. So we often say that there is no eternal good actor, only eternal good works.
Listening to Gao Yingpei's cross-talk, you can feel the social state and atmosphere at that time, his works are very contemporary, and have a very hot live atmosphere, which is rare in the same era.
The cross-talk actors of the literary generation can be regarded as the humeral ministers of the ancestors of the cross-talk generation, and this generation of cross-talk actors has created a small climax period of Chinese cross-talk, and a large number of new cross-talk masterpieces full of irony and humor have emerged, and the most outstanding among the literary generation is Gao Yingpei. He used his explosive stage style to give this language art another way of appreciating.
