There is a master of humor, deeply loved by the audience, as long as he plays, everyone will be happy to laugh.
There are many disciples under the master's disciples, and the famous teachers have become high disciples, and most of the disciples have also achieved fame.
In his old age, the master's body grew older. On his deathbed, he summoned his disciples to his bedside and said, "All of you must raise your spirits, and I have something to ask you."
Hearing this, the disciples pricked up their ears one by one.
The master said, "The happiest thing in my life is to hear the applause of the audience." If you can use the warmest applause to send me a funeral and make a final curtain for my life, then I will be blinded. The disciples were all stunned: who had heard of it
Will there be such a funeral ceremony? But looking at the master's demeanor, it didn't look like he was joking.
Seeing the embarrassment on the faces of his disciples, the master said, "I was born to bring joy to people, and if I let people cry for me when I leave this world, it will be completely against my will."
The disciples looked at each other, and none of them dared to speak.
The master was angry: "You have been following me for many years, and now your skills are above me, and even this little wish you can't satisfy me?"
When the masters all talked about this, the disciples had to reluctantly agree.
Afterwards, the more the disciples thought in their hearts, the more wrong it became: if the master died, it would undoubtedly bring great sorrow to the people, and when the time came, they would applaud the master, unless they did not want to take the stage again in the future, otherwise the audience would not blow you down; But the master's words could not be ignored. What to do? They discussed and discussed, but they could not come up with a good idea, and in the end they could only agree that no matter what the public reaction was, they would applaud desperately, and whoever did not applaud could no longer be a disciple of the master.
Not long after, the master passed away. On the day of the funeral, the funeral procession stretched for tens of miles, the disciples looked sadly escorting the coffin of the master, and people on the way continued to spontaneously join the funeral procession, and the whole city was shrouded in sorrow.
The disciples began to desperately look for an opportunity to applaud the master along the way, but the closer they got to the cemetery where the master was buried, the sadder their mood became. Later, when the burial time came, watching the master's coffin slowly enter the tomb, the disciples realized that they would never see the master's performance again, and they could not help but cry bitterly. Ten passes, ten passes a hundred, the whole audience suddenly cried and thundered, and the atmosphere of grief reached a climax.
It wasn't until the funeral was over that the disciples' mood gradually calmed down, and they remembered that they had completely left the master's request behind, and they couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
The next day, the local media carried a detailed report on the grand funeral of the master under the title of "God of Joy", and at the request of the master's family, publicly published the master's will. The master has this passage in his will: "As an actor, I am very eager for the applause of the audience, and I regard it as the highest reward for my acting career." However, applause cannot be forced, only by respecting the emotions of the audience and making them truly happy can we get their real applause from the heart. ”
The disciples finally realized the master's good intentions: the so-called words of please, in fact, he was teaching the disciples the last lesson, applause can not be forced, applause comes from the heart.
Since then, they have been more refined in their performances.
