Life experience
Theory of crosstalk
Zhu Degang's parents, both from Shandong, came to Taiwan more than 50 years ago. Like the children of other military families, Zhu Degang is the so-called "mainlander" in Taiwan. Before Zhu was born, his father had retired. They moved out of the family village to live in the ordinary urban area of Taipei. Zhu Degang originally studied music, so he was a professional musician before he began to talk about cross talk. Musician is a popular profession in Taiwan. At night, they come and go with musical instruments in all kinds of Western restaurants and bars, making money by performing for guests. Musicians who work in these night shows often need to rush to the show, and their main source of income is tips. This is not a high income career, but Zhu Degang has been doing it for many years.
I started to say that crosstalk is a very accidental opportunity. One day more than ten years ago, one of his friends saw that his conversation was very interesting and asked him if he wanted to talk about cross talk. He thought about it and found it very interesting. At the same time, there was another way to make money, so he began to learn it. Crosstalk in Taiwan was brought by Wei Longhao and Wu Zhaonan more than 50 years ago. Wu Zhaonan later became Zhu Degang's first master. However, at the beginning of learning crosstalk, Zhu Degang imitated it by listening to the tape of crosstalk. His father is a crosstalk lover, so there are many crosstalk tapes at home.
If his father knows crosstalk, it is likely that Zhu Degang is still a professional musician, running in the night with musical instruments, rather than the current situation.
Because in Taiwan, except Taipei, Minnan is the main language in central and southern China. Few people can speak Putonghua and understand it. There is hardly a large living environment for crosstalk in Taiwan. The main performance venues are only limited to some colleges and universities in Taipei. It costs about a few hundred Taiwan dollars, sometimes less. When Zhu De began to talk about cross talk in public, it was not the main source of his income.
Host the program
Like a crosstalk actor, Zhu Degang's participation in variety shows is also a chance. After joining the Taipei quyi troupe, Zhu Degang's crosstalk shows were often made into CDs by a record company. At that time, Zhu Degang was already well-known in Taiwan's crosstalk circles, and was one of the pillars of Taipei quyi troupe.
More than a year ago, Wang Weizhong, a famous variety show producer in Taiwan, listened to his cross talk and found him. In this way, Zhu Degang entered the television industry and joined the program of "the whole people are bored". This is a live imitation show, mainly about political satire. It has always been one of the top ratings in Taiwan. Guo Ziqian, Tai Zhiyuan, jiukong, Honduras and Wang Weizhong have been the main actors of the show for many years.
In this live show, Zhu Degang played many characters: Ke Junxiong, Wang Linglin, President of Dongsen group, Aboriginal singer Beiyuan bobcat and Yo Yo Ma At the beginning, there was no characteristic. Later, when he played the role of Beiyuan bobcat, he put the Allegro, which he learned when he was learning crosstalk, into it. The effect was surprisingly good, and it suddenly became very popular.
As a result, every character he imitates now plays Allegro with a crackle, "Pavarotti" plays Allegro after singing, "Yo Yo Ma" puts down the bow, picks up Allegro and starts singing They all claim to have learned from Beiyuan mountain cat. The most popular part of the show is the live performance of the characters played by the actors. All the quarrels are controlled by the actors themselves. There is no script or lines at all. It all depends on the actors' understanding of the role and their own wit. In almost every episode of the program, everyone scolds the keyboard teacher.
The daily work of "the whole people's cauldron" starts from 1 p.m., and the production department has a meeting to discuss the topic and role. At 4:30 p.m., where are the actors. 9 o'clock makeup, 11 o'clock live. The choice of roles is mainly based on character imitation, and appearance is not the most important measure.
Learning from teachers
In 2001, he made three kowtows and nine bows in accordance with the ancient rites and took Tianjin crosstalk master Wei Wenliang as his teacher. In 1999, Zhu Degang once went to Tianjin. At that time, he wanted to be a teacher, but he was worried that Wei Wenliang would not agree with him. As a result, he did not dare to express his wish. Two years later, when the introducer introduced me to the teacher, he said with a smile, "OK! OK! That's it. I bowed to the teacher." At the beginning, Zhu De was worried that the teacher would not teach seriously. But over the past two years, Wei Wenliang has been teaching very seriously. Every time Zhu Degang had a new story, he would carve it into a CD and send it to Wei Wenliang. Then Wei Wenliang would give Zhu Degang a lot of useful advice.
The master and the apprentice have a good sense of humor. The apprentice excitedly said to the master, "you can do whatever you want?" the master said, "by the way, you can do whatever you want. Don't I worship you as my teacher?"
First Spring Festival Gala
In 2006, Zhu Degang and Liu zengkai will become the first pair of Taiwanese actors to speak crosstalk at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, attracting the attention of hundreds of millions of viewers. After repeated revision, Zhu Degang and Liu zengkai named the segment performed in the Spring Festival gala as "new tongue twister". By imitating the tongue twisters of Taiwan's ethnic minorities in Putonghua, this passage creates many amusing jokes and fully demonstrates the profound performance skills of the two actors.
In order to "exchange needed goods", in 2005, the Taipei quyi troupe toured Jinan, Beijing and Tianjin for eight performances, and participated in the cross-strait quyi Development Forum. Zhu Degang and Liu zengkai also participated in the Libai cup 2005 Beijing crosstalk sketch Invitational Competition with Chinese players from Singapore, Malaysia and other places on behalf of Taipei quyi troupe.
marriage and family
Zhu Degang and his wife met during a crosstalk performance four years ago. Later, his wife, who was engaged in trade, often complained that he performed everywhere, and that he would go on business for half a month without caring for his family. He once divorced him, and he could only say, "when we met, she knew the state of my life. no way out. In fact, she is more understanding of me. "
In life, there are always people who think that crosstalk actors and comedians are usually good at telling jokes, so they will call them "come for a while". Zhu Degang has also met him, and he often worries about this: "it sounds like he has no respect for people like an actor. I always refuse. We hope that crosstalk can add many new elements to make more people like it. "
