Cross-talk examination: Zhang Songqing, the "little star" of the "high gate" of the cross-talk family

Cross-talk examination 97: Zhang Songqing, the "little star" of the "high gate" of the cross-talk family

Zhang Songqing, the daughter of Zhang Jieyao, has the stage name "Little Star", and also writes "Xiao Xing". Zhang Jieyao's apprentices are all ranked in the word "pine", called "twelve green pines", which is said to be related to his daughter's "pine" character.

Zhang Jieyao worshiped under Gao Wenyuan's door, and naturally became brothers with Gao Wenyuan's three sons. The relationship between the shi brothers was good, and Zhang Jieyao let his eldest daughter worship under gao Deming, the most famous "little high second" of the three princes of the Gao family, and became one of the three disciples under Gao Deming.

Gao Deming was a big cross-talk master at that time, ranked first in the "Five Masters of Cross-Talk", and together with Cao Baolu, he was collectively known as "Groove Cake", which was the cave head of the Beijing City Quyi Hall, which was quite a bull fork. Among Gao Deming's other two apprentices, Yu Youfu was from the Quyi family, the old father was the old artist Yu Fushou of the Bamboo Plate Book, the elder brother was Jiao Dehai's disciple Yu Kunjiang, the husband was Ma Sanli's cousin Ma Sili, ma Sili remarried to Lai Xiaoru's younger brother Lai Shaoru after his death, and won the title of "Yu Laogu" in Tianjin; Feng Daquan was Feng Zhensheng's son, the third generation of the Northeast Feng Family Gate, and the third generation of descendants. Zhang Songqing's father, Zhang Jieyao, is one of the top five grandmaster-level figures in the history of Chinese cross-talk. In such an environment, it is conceivable that Zhang Songqing is definitely not a stubble, if you use it now, it is "quite a lot of box office appeal". Zhang Songqing's stage name is "Little Star", and this elegant number also proves Zhang Songqing's ability. In the pre-founding qu art world, if the qu artists want to eat and drink enough, they must have considerable ability; if there is no skill, the audience will not recognize the account, and the audience will not attract the audience from the south to the north, let alone perform on the stage in the tea house. At that time, where there were government-run class clubs, they were all private class clubs, and those that could be produced in the class clubs were absolutely able to sell tickets. Often, as long as there are nicknames and elegant titles, they are proved to be recognized by the audience. For example, Zhu Shaowen, who is "poor and not afraid", Gui Zhen, who is "rich in roots", Li Dezhao, who is "a fan of ten thousand people", Zhang Jieyao, Zhang Jieyao, a fool, Zhu Kuoquan, a "big bread", Tang Jincheng, a "blind man in soup", Chang Baokun, a "little mushroom", Bai Quanfu, who "cannot fly", Ji Wenzhen, a "lotus flower girl", Luo Yusheng, a "small color dancer", and Yan Xiaoru, a "Yan Mazi", are all very capable composers.

Zhang Songqing's artistic life is closely related to her father Zhang Jieyao, and even many times Zhang Jieyao always takes this eldest daughter and lets her perform with herself. Zhang Jieyao is very famous and has great skills, so he is naturally welcomed by the audience. As a result, Zhang Jieyao always covered his children and disciples.

In 1948, Zhang Songqing and his father Zhang Jieyao performed in Wuhan People's Paradise.

In 1950, Zhang Yutang, a cross-talk celebrity in Xi'an, invited Tianjin artist Li Runjie to Xi'an to perform. Zhang Jieyao, a fool, was also invited, and Zhang Jieyao led his apprentices Guan Songting and Guan Songpeng, his three daughters, Zhang Songqing, Zhang Shangzhu, Zhang Mingzhu, and his eldest son-in-law, Su Shijie, from Henan to Xi'an to perform. This trip to Xi'an made Zhang Jieyao, a fool, decide to settle in Xi'an. So, in 1951, Zhang Jieyao settled in Xi'an with his apprentice, daughter and son-in-law. At that time, there were many cross-talk actors in Xi'an, including Zhang Yutang, Zhang Shouchen, Guo Rongqi, Zhang Jieyao, Wang Benlin, Li Runjie, Gao Xiaolin, Guan Baoqi, Hu Baoyuan, Sun Baoqi, Sun Yanxia, Fu Guanglu, Xiao Mingxing, Li Villagers, Shan Songting, Guan Songpeng, Qi Cuncai, Zhao Wenzeng, Zhang Shangzhu, Zhang Mingzhu, etc. These cross-talk actors were all very skilled, everyone had a good paragraph, and every cross-talk garden was full of scenes every day, and the Xi'an audience feasted on their ears.

Zhang Jieyao, faced with the doubts of a group of peers led by Zhang Shouchen, has been resisting, and even changed his name to "Zhang Jizu", Zhang Shouchen also led his peers to "dwarf" Zhang Jieyao, changing the apprentice's "Li" character to "Bao" generation. In the end, Zhang Shouchen's sentence of "stupid master" can be regarded as an acknowledgement of Zhang Jieyao's "de" identity. With such a lao tzu, the girlfriend will definitely not lose the melon seedlings. It is said that Zhang Songqing's personality, like his Lao Tzu, has always insisted on his identity as a shouzi. Indeed, she inherited Gao Deming and was a down-to-earth Shouzi generation. However, Gao Deming was cut into a sieve by his peers, and many colleagues said that Gao Deming prostrated his head in front of Lu Dejun's grave, and he was a Shouzi generation. In the face of such doubts, Zhang Songqing, who was an apprentice, did not choose to be low-key, but rather arrogant, and when there was no food, he still bit his life and did not let go, wrote a letter to Hou Baolin for help, beginning with "Baolin Xian's nephew", which made Zheng Xiaoshan, who ghostwrote for her, very angry, and directly replied: "Xian Nephew (suspect straight), you go to bend Hou Baolin!" "Is a cross-talk artist in life, always and everywhere, smashed and hung?"

Some people say that Zhang Songqing should be the youngest Shouzi artist, and some people say that Yu Youfu is the youngest Shouzi artist. This is really hard to say. Because Gao Deliang's apprentice Gao Fengshan was demoted to the Baozi generation; was Zhang Songqing, who was the same generation as Gao Fengshan, also demoted?

Yang Baozhang's disciple Yu Wenguang once told an interesting story about a little star, and he also called it "Rushing the Scene". as follows:

"Rushing" is a technical term in cross-talk circles, which means that actors run back and forth between two performance venues and make a lot of money. But if you use this "rush" in other places in life, to hang on, there will be the "baggage" of crosstalk, which is funny.

It is said that in 1986, the husband of "little star" Zhang Songqing, Su Shijie, died, and he felt very sad, so he went to the home of "Zhang Roast Chicken" Zhang Yutang to visit the door. Zhang Yutang saw the "little star" with a sad face, so he advised: "Old sister, the brother-in-law has passed away, you are left alone, but how good, it is better to go forward (find another old partner). ”

Zhang Songqing said, "What is the right one?" ”

Zhang Yutang said: "I look at Lanzhou XXX is appropriate, the same age, and are both old artists, nothing you two can also talk about 'work' together (referring to cross-talk paragraphs). ”

As soon as the words fell, Zheng Xiaoshan walked into the door, saw that the "little star" was also there, and said busily: "Sister, my uncle in this next life, how lonely you are, simply, I will introduce you to a lord, you two pass." ”

Zhang Yutang asked busily, "Who?" ”

Zheng Xiaoshan said, "Master X of Hefei." ”

Zhang Yutang laughed and said, "I just finished laying xxx in Lanzhou, and you laid xxx for Hefei." ”

Zheng Xiaoshan loved to tell jokes, especially humorous, and hurriedly gave Zhang Songqing a slap, saying: "Sister, this time you will be on fire." ”

Zhang Songqing said, "What am I on fire?" ”

Zheng Xiaoshan said, "Your two ends are rushing to the scene, and they are not hot yet!" ”

Zhang Songqing said, "***, is there such a rush?" ”

There are so many "baggage" in life! Cross-talk actors love to smash and hang at all times. Zheng Xiaoshan and the dog god Zhao Weizhou have a comparison.

Also in 1986, Wang Zhanxin was transferred to the Linhe Qu Art Troupe and studied cross-talk with Wang Shichen, the disciple of cross-talk master Hou Baolin, and Zhang Songqing, a small star. However, in the end, Wang Zhanxin did not worship under Wang Shichen's door, nor did he worship under Zhang Songqing's door, but under Zheng Ping'an's door. At the age of 18, Wang Zhanxin served as the deputy head of the Linhe Qu Art Troupe, and was also a talented teenager with the reputation of "the first mouth of the River Loop".

Little star Zhang Songqing received two apprentices, Chen Shikui and Ma Shihao.
