This stage is a witness to the rise and fall of a generation. The Spring Festival Gala has witnessed the rise and fall of a generation.
As the new generation gradually emerged, the old-timers who had brought us joy gradually withdrew from the stage.
Let's discuss the "history of the disappearance" of the "nail households" of the Spring Festival Gala today, understand who they are and why they "disappeared".
When it comes to Mr. Guo Da, he can be regarded as a model of late bloomer.
As soon as he graduated, he joined the Shaanxi Provincial Drama Theater, which was his first job after graduating from the theater.
spent a full decade of training in the theater until he finally received an invitation to the Spring Festival Gala.
In 1987, at the age of 32, he became popular all over the country with "In Front of the Mother's Door".
He is poised, humorous and rhythmic on stage, yet few people know how much effort he put into this work.
He is not only rehearsing his lines, but also refining the service, and the scheduling and rhythm are also repeated by him countless times.
It is with this kind of professionalism that he has gained a firm foothold in the sketch world and has become Cai Ming's right-hand man.
They first appeared together in 1993, and they presented a combination of Chinese and Western cultures on stage, and the difference caused the audience to burst into laughter.
The two works of Guo Da and Cai Ming have aroused enthusiastic responses, making them the focus of attention at this evening.
As the cooperation between the two deepened, the gossip between them gradually increased.
It is common to hear people say, "The dish does not leave the pot, and the pot does not leave the dish".
Therefore, the public began to suspect that the reason why the two later "broke up" was because of conflicts between their families.
However, this is not the case.
Although you can enjoy the scenery on the Spring Festival Gala, it takes a lot of energy to present it perfectly.
Zhao Benshan and Song Dandan have both complained about this overload of work, saying that they can't do it.
Therefore, Guo Da had to withdraw from the stage of the Spring Festival Gala because of excessive physical overdraft.
After he retired from the stage, he occasionally participated in the filming of some film and television dramas, but more time was spent with his family.
His son has now become a screenwriter and started his own family, and his relationship with Wu Fang is still the same as before.
Song Dandan is an evergreen tree of the Spring Festival Gala, and she appears on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala every year.
She has left too many classics on this stage, whether it is "Fighter" or "Wei Shufen".
Her performances range from girls to grandmothers, always in one go, and the audience is fascinated.
Her talent for standard pronunciation, in particular, has made her a "master of comedy".
Although she was always poised on stage, she was well aware that she never relaxed when she stood on such a large stage.
Due to the heavy workload, she finally decided to quit the sketch stage.
It wasn't until 2020 that she re-entered this familiar stage in a singing way.
Song Dandan now not only rehearses dramas, but also occasionally participates in film and television works.
Although she was criticized at first for being too aggressive, as the audience got to know her better, they also changed her dramatically.
When Song Dandan is mentioned, it is inseparable from Zhao Benshan.
Zhao Benshan, as the "Emperor of Sketches", presented many classics in the Spring Festival Gala, and also created many brilliant records.
When he participated in Jiang Kun's Spring Festival Gala for the first time, he successfully attracted the attention of the audience.
Despite the all-out performance, it is still impossible to avoid the unexpected.
Because of these unexpected events, he felt exhausted and finally decided not to participate in the Spring Festival Gala anymore.
When I performed "Little Choi Tells Things", there was a scene where I was asked to put the leftover lunch box in my bag.
After he finished the dinner scene, he found that the bag was left backstage.
Fortunately, Song Dandan immediately understood his thoughts after glancing at him, so she reacted to his actions.
If the cooperation between these two people is not tacit enough, then it is likely to lead to the occurrence of broadcast accidents.
After the Spring Festival Gala in 2008, in addition to the annoyance of this mistake, he directly made him cry in the background.
At that time, although the two collaborated again to host the Spring Festival Gala, their creativity had dried up, and their work was simply unsatisfactory.
Due to the patchwork of the script, the actors' performances were weak, and many of the laughs did not meet the expected level.
The two of them immediately hugged and cried backstage, and no one could understand the torment they went through in those few minutes.
Due to his lack of inspiration and age, he eventually became unbearable and decided not to participate in the performance of the sketch anymore.
Since he withdrew from the sketch world, the once highly anticipated Spring Festival Gala sketches have now become a good medicine for people to sleep.
His departure can also be seen as the end of an era.
He has been performing on stage since he was one year old, and he didn't watch the play until he was four or five years old.
Zhao Lirong, known as the "Queen of Sketches", it is no exaggeration to say that she has dedicated her life to the stage.
It's a pity that it wasn't until she was 60 years old that she stood on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala and began to become popular.
In 1988, she collaborated with You Benchang in the sketch "Emergency", and left a deep impression on the audience with her fluent Tangshan dialect.
With this work, she was invited by Zhang Xiaohai to participate in "A Day of a Heroic Mother", and since then she has become famous.
While she's earned a reputation in the field of sketches, she's not limited to that.
Once she became popular, she soon won the honor of international A-category actress and Hundred Flowers actress with the movie "New Year".
Although her career has been smooth sailing, her life has been full of vicissitudes and many hardships.
Her daughter also died of a congenital disease after the death of her first husband, Sheng Hong.
She finally got over the pain of losing her child, but then her second husband died of a heart attack.
Although she was devastated, the death of her loved ones never made her reveal this grievance on stage.
She died of terminal lung cancer shortly after appearing at the Spring Festival Gala in 1999.
After hearing the news of her passing, many viewers spontaneously expressed their condolences for her.
Now she has been gone for 23 years, but her classic works are still in the spotlight.
Zhao Benshan brought many talents to the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, of which Fan Wei is one of them.
Before coming into contact with sketches, Fan Wei was still known as a cross talk actor.
He has been studying the art of cross talk under the guidance of Chen Lianzhong since he was 16 years old.
After he was admitted to the Shenyang Quyi Troupe, he began to create his own cross talk works, including a work called "A Factory Director's Diary", which was even selected by CCTV for broadcasting.
It wasn't until 1993 that Zhao Benshan looked for actors to star in his sketches, and Fan Wei's career really improved.
With the support of Zhao Benshan, he got the opportunity to go to the Spring Festival Gala.
At that time, many people thought that Zhao Benshan was his benefactor, and he often treasured the "grace of knowing the encounter" in his heart.
originally thought that their tacit understanding of the "master and apprentice" would create more brilliance on the stage, but they did not expect to have a disagreement when their careers were booming.
It is reported that when Fan Wei decided to settle in Beijing, Benshan Media had just been established, and it was the busiest and most money-short stage.
Even so, Zhao Benshan was still busy helping him settle down.
When he encounters an unexpected situation, he finds that the other party is indifferent to him.
Song Dandan unexpectedly decided not to participate in the Spring Festival Gala performance sketch in 2009, a decision that caught her old partner Zhao Benshan off guard.
originally planned to ask Fan Wei for a favor, but he politely refused on the grounds that he was busy filming.
As a result, the two parted ways and did not work together again until 2020.
They collaborated to complete the work "Liu Laogen 3", and the time is fixed in 2020.
Although Fan Wei has not made any waves in the field of sketches in the past two years, he has frequently created classic roles in film and television works.
His presence can be observed on both the big screen and the small screen.
Maybe he found his true self after leaving Zhao Benshan, just like the world says.
Zhu Shimao and Chen Peisi, who left the comedy industry, can be said to be a big loss in the field of sketch creation.
When the two met, the sketch industry had not yet risen in the literary circle.
As a result, the two of them often play small skits.
In this collision journey, the two co-created "Eating Noodles".
The show was then moved to the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, and since then the sketch has become famous.
They became frequent visitors to the Spring Festival Gala because of the success of "Eating Noodles".
During the Spring Festival Gala, the most anticipated program was the sketch of the pair.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last.
Because they disagreed with the director team's ideas, and CCTV privately printed their works for sale, it led to tensions between the two parties, and finally went to court.
CCTV later lost the lawsuit and had to compensate the two 330,000 yuan, and published an apology statement in the report. After that, the two parties "block" each other.
Although the two no longer appear in public, they have not stayed away from the showbiz and often rehearse dramas together.
In addition, Chen Peisi's son has transformed into a drama actor.
I believe that such an excellent father will one day start his own business.
Witnessing these well-known actors leaving the stage of history one by one, I can't help but sigh at the ruthlessness of the years.
In the past, the Spring Festival Gala used to be a highland of buzzwords, providing us with a topic.
However, the current Spring Festival Gala frequently uses old stalks and focuses on family fun.
That's why we miss our predecessors so much and those never-ending years of creation.
Will there be a "miracle" in this year's Spring Festival Gala, who are you most looking forward to seeing in the Spring Festival Gala?
