On March 22, Chen Hanbai rarely attended the fourth anniversary celebration of the Laughing Hall Chamber Xiangsheng Society, but unlike in the past, the comedian who once brought a lot of joy to the audience was in a worrying situation, and it is not difficult to see through the photos that his face is haggard, and even if he attends the event, he can only sit in a wheelchair.
Many netizens can't help but sigh after seeing Chen Hanbai's current situation, once the spirited person on the stage, he can't even withstand the passage of time.
At the scene of the event, Chen Hanbai also broke the real reason for the circle for the first time to "recognize the father", and he also made a detailed explanation for the long-rumored "confessing the father to find a backer" that has been rumored on the Internet.
He said: The dry father mentioned in the cross-talk line is not the kind of existence that can be used as a backer, but a very traditional "you are my elder, I will give you a pension to the end."
In addition, Chen Hanbai also said: Many times it is not that he wants to recognize his father, some are designated by the family, and some are designated by the master. Therefore, I will worship five dry fathers in succession, and without exception, I will send them gifts on weekdays.
Once upon a time, when Chen Hanbai successively became the son of Liu Wenheng, Chang Guitian, Shi Fukuan, Yang Zhigang and Shi Shengjie, the outside world seemed to have more doubts about his evaluation. Even if he explains it now, in the eyes of most audiences, Chen Hanbai, who faded out of the stage, is no longer the performance artist he once was, but a "5 family slave".

Looking back at Chen Hanbai's stage, in fact, it has also brought joy and laughter to many people. In cross-talk performances, he has more of his own characteristics, and unlike his usual style, his explosive power is stronger and more eye-catching.
Therefore, when facing Chen Hanbai's performance, Ma Ji once commented that Chen Hanbai was different from many cross-talk actors from a family in his career, he was halfway out of love and did not have that kind of strict and systematic professional training. Because he has not received those training and edifications, he does not have many frames in his performance, and it is easy to form his own characteristics without being so conformist.
Talented and distinctive, Chen Hanbai's popularity is expected. With his love for cross-talk, he successfully studied with Hou Yaowen and became Guo Degang's brother-in-law. Chen Hanbai, who had such a foundation, also became one of the most valued apprentices of the master.
Later, Chen Hanbai proved himself with his own strength. With his unique rendering power on the stage, he has undoubtedly become a dark horse in the industry. Even in the past for some time, his name is no less than that of sketch actor Chen Peisi.
It can be said that as long as Chen Hanbai continues to move forward, he may have achievements no less than Guo Degang. However, at that time, he did not expect that his act of "admitting his father" would actually ruin a piece of his own star path.
Chen Hanbai's first father was Liu Wenheng, a proud disciple of the famous cross-talk artist Yang Shaokui. If you keep following this direction, the audience can also accept it. But when he recognized Shi Shengjie's father, everything changed, after all, Shi Shengjie was only four years older than Chen Hanbai.
This kind of "wrong generation" recognition behavior has also caused Chen Hanbai's popularity to be affected to a certain extent. After all, to get the recognition of the audience, you need works and achievements, not blind connections. But at that time, he did not realize what it meant to blindly recognize his relatives, and he remained the same as before, until he recognized five dry fathers.

When Chen Hanbai focused on dealing with personal connections, he began to slowly ignore his own work. The old man often said that "people's energy is limited", because of this farce, Chen Hanbai lost more than half of the stage.
If he had discovered his own shortcomings at that time and seized the opportunity to work hard, perhaps there would have been a different outcome. However, Chen Hanbai is a being who does not listen to the advice of others, and without a stage, he began to sign crazy contracts with advertising vendors.
During that time, Chen Hanbai became the spokesperson of more than a dozen brands in a row, because there was no practical consideration, so some products had problems. As a spokesman, his reputation has also been damaged again.
From the admiration of thousands of people to the scorn of others, the era of Chen Hanbai also ended. Compared with guo Degang, who is now a master brother, he has neither stage performance nor audience recognition, and his life is indeed a bit "bleak".
Now he openly responds to the reason why he recognizes his father, probably hoping to get the audience's understanding and recognition. It's just that time has passed, and many things have long been decided. It is a little strange to revisit the old news now.
In life, I always hear people say, "If I were given another chance, I would choose again." "However, the opportunity to slip away was not grasped, and if it was done again, the time, the environment, and the space would be difficult to return to the original state."
Reality cannot be changed, otherwise the laws of nature will be disrupted, and there will be no past, present, and future. The things of life, there are right and wrong, there are losses, there are also choices, no matter what the outcome, dare to bear the consequences, is the best result. I believe that for Chen Hanbai, this is also the case.
