How is the cross talk of GI?

If you want to talk about the rise of the Wonder Soldiers, it is inseparable from the city where they started - Changsha, the top entertainment capital in the country, and the true portrayal of "Harry Oil I opened a foot-washing city". In the era when the people's spiritual and cultural needs were expanding day by day but the Internet had not yet appeared, the city of Changsha gave birth to a very unique local imported culture called "song hall". Now you have to look at it, which originated in the folk market at the end of the nineteenth century, and still carries a large number of remnants of the old era of etiquette, which probably can't be combined with the word "song hall".

But during the period of cooperation between the two, in the mid-nineties, the "tradition" of cross talk had long been cut off, and after the small revival of cross talk at the gala driven by the Spring Festival Gala, as well as the promotion of Liang Zuo and others, it has been shaped into a model of "fifteen-minute humorous speech performance by two or more people at the party". The Changsha-style song hall, with its private undertaking, high-frequency rehearsals, and ticket-based operation, needs this kind of "fifteen-minute humorous speech performance for two or more people at the party". Under the lighting and sound of drunken fans, the actor also unhurriedly reported the name of the dish or geographical map according to the past, and slowly flipped it three or four times, how could the audience buy it?

So if you want to say whether they are talking about cross talk, it can only be said that they are just local folk performers first, and the audience has the final say on the show, and what the audience said at that time was that, then it could only be anything. But it still has to be said that the two of them are at least creating their own works in the way of creating cross talk, at the very least, the division of labor between the two is quite clear, narrative works, such as "Thief", "Interesting Facts on the Stage", "I Am 110", "After the Divorce", have always been the amusement of the soldiers; Dialogue-type works, such as CCTV's "Happy Funeral", "Challenge the Host", "Upstairs and Downstairs", etc., the two use the cow Feng Gong-style son and mother. The two have also adapted traditional works, such as Ma Ji's "The Trainee".

It's just that the two have been deliberately blurring the division of labor between praise and teasing in traditional cross talk, and have even been deliberately using the opposite position of holding left and teasing, which is obviously also from the perspective of local audience acceptance. <>

When discussing Qizhi soldiers, it is impossible to bypass the combination of Yang Wuliu and Zhou Weixing. The originator of Changsha's dialect cross talk should be Yang Wuliu. Yang Wuliu not only developed this performance model, but also has an advantage over the GI in performing arts—I'm not discussing the good or bad, but the outside world's evaluation—Yang Wuliu's performance can achieve the laughing fruit that the GI can do without "adding flowers".

I don't know if it's a technical term, but I heard the GI say it in an interview. Da Bing explained in an interview at the time why he broke up with Qizhi, saying that Mr. Yang Qizhi likes to add flowers to cross talk, but he doesn't like it, which has become an important difference between the two. This statement is probably not understood by many people.

Because when performing, the performances of "Jiahua" are all done by GIs. The so-called "flowers" refer to some clown-like, distorted and even crazy expressions and body language. These contents may be considered "too vulgar" by some.

Yang Wuliu is the one who can make the audience laugh and tear off the roof without being a clown, and even has the demeanor of a grandmaster, but unfortunately he was riddled with illness and died prematurely (two weeks ago was the 10th anniversary of Mr. Yang Wuliu's death). Qizhi and GI were originally very complementary, and the typical one plus one is greater than two. After the breakup, the GI found another GI, and Qizhi found another GI, of course, it would not even be as good as half of the original.

Originally, most of them took the path of adaptation, and many of the jokes were pushed out after the dialect of the jokes in "Lausanne Learning" and "Smart Drama". Thanks to the special comedic effect of the dialect, and there may not be many people in Changsha, a southern city, who pay attention to the northern cross talk, so it is also an instant hit. Later, I gradually found my own point, and grasped the comedy effect of dialects to create, and indeed produced a lot of good jokes, and the creativity was amazing.

Topics such as "Meeting" and "Foot-Washing City" are classics that are still evocative. The basis of their popularity was the magical soil of Changsha Song Hall, and then they broke up, firstly, the market environment changed, and secondly, it is estimated that the creative source of the two partners dried up. The soldiers later took refuge in Li Jindou's disciples and tried their best to get closer to the mainstream, as for his partner with Zhao Weiguo, not to mention.
