At the end of last year, "Sketch King" Chen Peisi joined CCTV's "Gold Medal Comedy Class", and the news immediately rushed to the hot search, known as the "Great Reconciliation of the Century".
Although Chen Peisi is 66 years old, his beard is gray. But "your uncle or your uncle", the audience misses him too much.
At the beginning, Chen Peisi sued CCTV for infringement, won the lawsuit and lost his career, and was banned by Yang Ma for 20 years. In fact, this feud is far more than a lawsuit.
The complaint against CCTV began in 1994. That year, Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao inadvertently discovered that their sketches were made into CDs and sold on the market, and the distributor was a subsidiary of CCTV, and they were neither notified nor paid royalties.
At that time, there were many such things, and no actor went to be more real, nor did he dare to be more true. People are CCTV's international television corporation, and it is "international" and "total", choose your sketch, that is worthy of you...
But Chen Peisi did not do it, he was in his early 40s, not a prosperous man, but also a flesh and blood Fang gang. Moreover, people are the bearers of the sketches, the wrists are there, in front of him, Zhao Benshan is only a descendant.
So the two found CCTV to say, the person in charge at the time also gave the two people a face, sincerely apologized, and issued a statement afterwards. But behind the scenes, he scolded a stupid hat! I thought: Little sample, you are still serious!
Sure enough, by 1999, the two discovered that the disc was still being sold unscrupulously, plus the previous year's new work "The Prince and the Postman". Chen Peisi was angry and played me like a monkey! This time, they directly appointed a lawyer to go to CCTV to negotiate.
CCTV a look: Yo ho! Can't send you away! Simply played the rogue arbitrarily: I just came out, what's the matter?
There are also practical reasons for CCTV's bad attitude, one is that chen Peisi does not understand the human accident, and more importantly, the new sketch platform pillar Zhao Benshan is in the limelight. That means I can't sit without you?!
Chen Peisi is a famous tendon, and without saying a word, he pulled Zhu Shimao to sue CCTV. During the year-long trial process, none of the collaborators involved in the infringed sketches, such as Gong Hanlin, Cai Ming, Wei Ji'an, etc., were willing to blend in and gave up their litigation rights.
If there is no Chen Peisi to stand up, it is estimated that Zhu Shimao, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, is also likely to defect. However, Lao Mao stood up and attended the trial with Chen Peisi. The court ruled that CCTV infringed, ordered 330,000 yuan in damages, and also apologized to others.
The lawsuit was finally won, and when it came to why he had to fight with CCTV to the end, Chen Peisi said: "There must be rules, I can accept economic losses, but I can't tolerate you ignoring me."
People with ability have tempers, and Chen Peisi has long been unaccustomed to CCTV.
In the era when the network was not developed, those who engaged in television were very dragged, their small faces were high, and their breasts were swollen: I am a TV station! CCTV is even more cattle, Bai Yansong once said, let a dog every day CCTV can become a famous dog.
As a result, the actors flocked to CCTV, bowed their heads, and saw that everyone had to be called Grandpa.
However, Chen Peisi, the elder of the Spring Festival Gala, was not convinced, he said: How many main creators did CCTV have back then? Isn't Huang Yihe a white wolf with empty gloves? It was we who helped you make the fire, and now it is CCTV that has made us popular!
Some people also say that Chen Peisi is sentimental, can you be popular without CCTV? Now that I'm famous, I have a big temper.
This is really not the case, when he first went to the Spring Festival Gala in 1984, Chen Peisi almost turned his face. Because of the worry that "Eating Noodles" is a "meaningless laugh", no one dares to express his position on whether he can go to the Spring Festival Gala. Until the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve, there was still half an hour to go before the show, and the two were still waiting for the notification in the background.
Chen Peisi's stubborn temper came up: Lao Tzu is no longer on! At that time, thanks to being pulled by Zhu Shimao, Huang Yihe clapped the board, and the two were able to appear at the Spring Festival Gala.
After becoming famous, Chen Peisi did not feel respected.
In the Spring Festival Gala of 1985, the Spring Festival Gala engaged in innovation, the sketch "Making a Movie" was performed in the open air, and Chen Peisi on the cold day wore a single coat and poured cold water on his body to show the feeling of being frozen. The audience took a look: Oops! It's a great acting! Desperately applauded. But that's not acting, it's really frozen! After the performance, Chen Peisi was immediately taken to the hospital.
On the eve of the Spring Festival in 1986, without receiving the notice from CCTV, Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao thought that they would definitely not be on it, and they both made plans for a good Spring Festival tour. Who knew that there were still 10 days before the Spring Festival, and suddenly received the notice of the Spring Festival Gala. It took 10 days to change the script, rehearse, and make a classic skit "Lamb Kebabs". The hardships behind the scenes can be imagined.
The rehearsal of "Pepper Noodles" at the Spring Festival Gala in 1989 was not smooth, and Chen Peisi was so angry that he dropped his hat and left. The director of the CCTV station asked them to go back, and Zhu Shimao also advised: That is the director of the station. Chen Peisi came up with a fire: what station director is not the director, who loves whom!
It is enough to be punished, and the creation is limited everywhere. In 1988, Chen Peisi asked for single-camera shooting and used the film's montage technique to break the limitations of time and space, but no one listened.
When "The Police and the Thief" was once again proposed to shoot stand-alone, it was not only rejected, but also deleted a wonderful content by the director. In 1998, Chen Peisi's "Wang Ye and the Postman" wanted to use high technology and was not adopted.
At the same time, the atmosphere of the Spring Festival Gala crew has become more and more strange, and the temptation of overnight fame has made interpersonal relationships begin to become cautious. The atmosphere under the stage also became very strange, thinking that when the first sketch "Eat Noodles" was performed, the audience under the stage laughed and rolled around, which was from the heart.
But now that the actors have just come on stage, the nursery children off the stage are screaming: Good! Good! At the mention of this, Chen Peisi frowned tightly: Nasty! Very annoying!
Chen Peisi felt that in order to make a ten-minute sketch, it involved a lot of energy and was very boring, so it was better to make a movie and do something else.
So in 1999, Chen Peisi refused to go to the Spring Festival Gala again, and then there was a lawsuit against CCTV for infringement.
After being "banned" by CCTV, Chen Peisi's performance resources were very few. After nearly 20 years of popularity, he did not save a little family foundation, and when it was most tragic, the children's tuition fees could not be taken out.
He couldn't pull down his face to ask his grandfather to tell his grandmother, find a business to run and open a business or something. Fortunately, there is a virtuous wife at home, and the wife said: Let's cover a barren mountain, do you know? Chen Peisi's eyes lit up, and he carried a hoe into the mountains to plant pomegranates. Two years later, he was unwilling to take the 350,000 he earned out of the mountain.
What projects are you working on? The sketch is definitely not engaged, and it is good to make a comedy movie, but it is too difficult for all the masters to serve. The theme should be high-spirited, it must be paid to be attached to a regular studio, and the box office has been exploited layer by layer, and he can't hear the little money thrown out.
Accidentally, Chen Peisi heard the screenwriter Wang Baoshe mention one thing, his friend went to the marriage agency and was deceived by the marriage entrustment, thinking of the "childcare" of the Spring Festival Gala, Chen Peisi was inspired, so there was the first drama "Childcare".
Many people have never seen a play in their lives, let alone spent money to watch a play. So someone reminded him that playing drama may make you lose your last name without knowing anything. But Chen Peisi likes this, he can have his own family foundation, spent 340,000 to discharge this drama, lost on the loss, Grandpa does not care!
In November 2001, the first performance of "Childcare" appeared in the Chang'an Grand Theater, and some people suggested, are we going to send some tickets? Chen Peisi's small eyes rolled over, and the six relatives on his face did not recognize: Send tickets?! If you don't give tickets, the bigger the official, the less you give!
Zhu Shimao wanted to invite his friends to watch "Childcare", but also to Give Chen Peisi a show, but remembering so many years, Chen Peisi did not even invite himself to dinner, Lao Mao thought to himself, Get it! I'll pay for the tickets myself.
On the day of the opening performance, Tiangong did not do beautiful rain and snow, and even Chen Peisi played drums in his heart, which was over! Unexpectedly, the front of the theater was bustling with traffic, the audience squeezed straight in, the tickets were sold out quickly, and the scalpers on the black market made a lot of money. In this way, "Childcare" was performed for a year, and the box office exceeded 10 million. Chen Peisi was stunned to make dramas into a more profitable business than movies.
Since then, the troupe has successively launched a number of dramas, until 20 years later, "Childcare" has changed actors, the plot is constantly revised and renovated, and it is still hotly staged everywhere.
As mentioned before, Chen Peisi's departure from the Spring Festival Gala is an active choice, and the so-called CCTV "banning" Chen Peisi is just hyped up by the media, and the actual relationship between the two sides is far less tense.
In 2004, the Spring Festival Gala issued an invitation, perhaps because they were afraid that Chen Peisi's temper was too explosive, they called Zhu Shimao first, but Chen Peisi, the god of plague, was next to him, and he grabbed the phone and said: Our performance is full, and there is no time within three months! Directly blocked the other person's mouth.
After that, the Spring Festival Gala sketches became more and more rotten, and in 2008, Song Dandan swore to flee the Spring Festival Gala, zhao Benshan also cried and shouted to retire, and the voice calling for Chen Peisi's comeback became louder and louder.
In 2011, the director of the Spring Festival Gala, Ha Wen, sent an invitation letter to Chen Peisi, but he also ruthlessly refused, on the grounds that there was no time! Someone asked: Why do you have time to rehearse a play? Uncle Chen said domineeringly: I like it!
This is reminiscent of two days ago, a famous host drove a big G tour, netizens asked: Why don't you drive a domestic car? The bald man said arrogantly: I like it!
For Uncle Chen's "I like", I really like it.
And for the big G-famous mouth of "I like", I just want to say: a question and an answer, two teasing B!
Since there is no knot in the heart, the cooperation between Chen Peisi and CCTV is also sooner or later. In 2015, the TV series "Good Big One Home" directed by Chen Peisi finally landed on CCTV. Now it is only natural to join CCTV's "Gold Medal Comedy Class".
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="92" > xiaobian has something to say</h1>
Many people think that Chen Peisi is the real "sketch king", and Zhao Benshan is not worth mentioning in front of him. I thought it was an exaggeration to say that. Chen Peisi is the founder of the sketch, and the historical status is of course higher, but from the level point of view, it should be said that the two are equal and have their own advantages.
Chen Peisi is good at body performance, and Zhao Benshan's language is even better. Chen Peisi has a deep theoretical foundation and has gone out of his own way in drama, Zhao Benshan is very grounded, and has achieved remarkable results in TV dramas.
The audience's pursuit of Chen Peisi is dissatisfaction with the status quo of the sketch, so why does Chen Peisi not want to come back to the Spring Festival Gala? I think Chen Peisi can figure out that even if he comes back, he can't save the current sketch.
Chen Peisi in "Gold Medal Comedy Class" is not pleasing, he is serious and strict, emphasizes theory, and pays attention to rules, his methods are not necessarily all right, but his persistence is unwavering.
What's more, his pursuit is the art of comedy, not sketches or a certain fixed form.
His integrity and persistence are admirable!
