In the cross-talk industry, the only ones who can be called "famous and prestigious families" are the three major families of Ma, Chang and Hou. Among them, Ma's cross-talk has the longest history. Quyi theorists generally believe that Ma Sanli was an important figure in the Ma Xiangsheng Kaizong School. It was he who sorted out and summarized the performance characteristics of his maternal grandfather Enxu and his father Ma Delu and built the Ma cross-talk art system. Although Ma's cross-talk has been sought after and loved by hundreds of millions of viewers, from the perspective of the family's artistic inheritance, it is obviously inferior to the leafy Chang's cross-talk.
Because of this, from Mr. Ma Sanli down, the two descendants of Ma Clan have devoted their lives to inheriting and carrying forward Ma's cross-talk. One is Ma Sanli's eldest son, Ma Zhiming, which is familiar to most audiences, and The young ma ye was taken by Hou Baolin to pull his disciples to worship under Zhu Kuoquan's door, but Ma Zhiming's cross-talk performance skills were almost entirely taught by his father Ma Sanli, which is evident from Ma Zhiming's stage performance style. The other one was the same, obviously worshiping the master, but the worshipper was only to follow the rules of the Xiangsheng Gate, and the real teacher who preached and taught was Ma Sanli. Seeing this old listener, they all guessed it, and it was indeed Mr. Ma Jingbo, the nephew of Third Master Ma.
Ma Jingbo is the son of Ma Guiyuan, the eldest son and eldest grandson of Ma Delu, and can be described as a real famous queen. Ma Guiyuan's name was thunderous in the cross-talk world at that time, how to become famous too early, contaminated with the bad habit of smoking opium. His untimely death also directly affected the fate of his son. Ma Jingbo, who was also a school student, because of the early death of his father, the family cut off his financial resources, and had no choice but to drop out of school and go to the sea to learn cross-talk. At the beginning of his life, he studied art with his third uncle at the age of twelve or thirteen, and as he grew older, Ma Jingbo had to worship his master if he wanted to do so, which was the rule handed down from the Xiangsheng Gate. So at the age of 18, the third uncle personally chose a master for him, that is, Hou Yichen, a famous Beijing cross-talk artist who gave Zhang Shouye a praise.
Hou Yichen is also a well-known "large number" in the Beijing cross-talk circle, but Ma Jingbo can only be regarded as his apprentice. Third Master Ma asked his nephew to worship the master in order to find him a justified portal, which was the basis for his future life in this line of work. If you really want to teach or do it yourself. Ma Jingbo's performance bears a deep mark of Ma's cross-talk, good at making wen and mouth, typhoon stability and generosity, and making life extremely disciplined, and these advantages are also proud of the painstaking efforts poured into him by the third uncle.
Compared with his cousin Ma Zhiming, Ma Jingbo's works such as "Kwa Residence" and "The Great Bodyguard" are more like Mr. Ma Sanli in terms of performance rhythm and tone, but shen yun is not as good as Shaoma in terms of shen yun understanding. The gentle and elegant personality of being kind to others is also the same as that of the third uncle when he was young. Perhaps because of his talent and understanding, or perhaps because of Dun Hou's introverted personality, although Ma Sanli personally taught and taught the art, Ma Jingbo always got his form, and did not reflect the essence of Ma's cross-talk in the performance.
After liberation, he left Tianjin in 1956 to join the Jilin Radio Qu Art Troupe, and then lived in Changchun for a long time. In the same year, Wang Baotong was also transferred to the Jilin Radio Qu Art Troupe under the recommendation of his brother Hou Baolin, and the two became regular partners. The cooperation between the two is mainly based on staging traditional work, and his performances of "Drama Fan Medicine Formula", "Kwa Residence", "Beauty Praise", "Mouth Spit Lotus" and other works have become a learning model for the talents of jilin quyi. Rooted in Changchun for most of his life, he has made great contributions to the popularization and promotion of cross-talk in Jilin Province.
From the perspective of inheriting Ma's cross-talk, Ma Jingbo is not successful, which does not mean that he is not a good actor. In 1996, Ma Jingbo was invited to return to Tianjin to record "Chinese Traditional Cross-Talk Collection". In the works such as "Telling the Four Books", "Wuxing Lou", "Eight Great Auspiciousness", and "Cockscomb Flower", which are temporarily cooperated with Huang Zumin, it is not difficult to see that Ma Jingbo has his own unique characteristics in his understanding and handling of traditional cross-talk. Throughout Mr. Ma Jingbo's artistic career, leaving Guanwai was an important turning point. If I had stayed in Tianjin and been in a cross-talk nest full of high-ranking people, I am afraid it would be difficult to have today's achievements.
