After leaving the Spring Festival Gala, Zhao Benshan is lonely. How is it now?
Thirty-eight years ago, Zhao Benshan, who was sallow and emaciated, became an instant hit. In the play, Zhang Zhi, the blind man he played, sang: "Life is determined by fate, eight words make it hard to change, and wealth is never determined by heaven ..."
In 219, at the recording scene of a program on Tianjin Satellite TV, Wang Xiaobao performed "Fall" again. Not only was it negligence or intention, but it directly crossed the previous words: "How old is the diviner this year? On your birthday, you reported that you were born in Shanhaiguan Head Wall, and you were a 55-year-old dragon ..." Although Zhao Benshan, with white hair, was in good spirits, he looked dignified and thoughtful when he performed in Wang Xiaobao, as if remembering his own years.
Zhao Benshan is a child of bad karma. His mother died of illness when he was 6 years old, and his father chose to run away from home. Zhao Benshan lost the care of his parents at an early age. The blind man's second uncle couldn't stand it, so he had to take young Zhao Benshan from village to village and busk everywhere. To say that you are a busker is actually to sing a passage and beg people for food. It was in the process of begging and selling art that Zhao Benshan learned folk skills such as playing suona, playing erhu, singing ditty and duet.
when he was 17 years old, a literary propaganda team was set up in the commune at that time. He was selected because of his years' practice in performing arts, and later he entered Xifeng County Quyi Troupe in Tieling City to star in the duet.
In p>1982, Li Zhongtang, then the curator of Tieling Mass Art Museum, experienced life in the countryside, and created a drama "Wrestling Three Strings" with emotion. During the art performance in Tieling, Li Zhongtang, who was then the director of the jury, was deeply impressed by Zhao Benshan's performance of "Watching Lights by the Blind", so he decided that Li Zhi, the blind man in "Wrestling Three Strings", should be played by Zhao Benshan. Zhao Benshan, who was acting in the countryside at that time, was very happy after learning the news. It took only three days to learn all the lyrics. Later, Zhao Benshan's "Wrestling the Three Strings" participated in the performance of a small play in Liaoning Province and won the Excellence Award. Since then, Zhao Benshan has become an instant hit. People all know that there is a Zhao Benshan in Tieling and call him "the first blind person in the world". In 1984, Wrestling Three Strings was made into opera film, and won the third prize of the first China drama "Eagle". Later, Zhao Benshan said more than once: "This play has completed my life."
After many twists and turns, Zhao Benshan finally stepped onto the stage of CCTV Spring Festival Evening in 199, and starred in the sketch "Blind Date" with Huang Xiaojuan as his partner, and won the first place in the drama and folk art category. Since then, Zhao Benshan has become a frequent visitor to CCTV Spring Festival Gala, and has been on the Spring Festival Gala for 22 years in a row, and it is either the first prize or the second prize. Zhao Benshan has also become the undisputed "sketch king". That some viewers said that the Spring Festival Gala would be like chewing wax without Zhao Benshan's program.
With the increase of Zhao Benshan's fame, his position in the Spring Festival Gala is also improving. Zhao Benshan has a special "F137" VIP lounge in the nearest place to the stage of the Spring Festival Evening, where his disciples personally guard the door, while other actors share it with others. Zhao Benshan's programs are no longer censored like other actors, and they are basically all over. The first important actor visited by the general director of the Spring Festival Gala every year must be Zhao Benshan.
since Zhao Benshan boarded the Spring Festival Gala, his life has been like hanging up. He founded Benshan Media Performing Arts Company, and his disciples were widely accepted. The ceremony of accepting disciples was grand and solemn, like a underworld worshipping the mountains, which was more wonderful than acting. While performing on the stage, he also filmed a series of TV dramas such as Liu Laogen, Country Love and Ma Dashuai. In 21, he spent 2 million yuan to buy his own private jet, and the first female star on his plane was Cecilia Cheung.
Zhao Benshan's career has reached the most glorious period, with international superstar Zhang Ziyi posing for a photo with him, and Eva Huang even kowtowing to Zhao Benshan on the stage in full view.
In the 211 Forbes China Celebrity List, Zhao Benshan ranked eighth with an annual income of 13 million. For this ranking, Zhao Benshan just smiled faintly and said, "Can I earn this money?" "To be honest, I don't know how much money I have." Indeed, the maintenance cost of a plane in Zhao Benshan alone is as high as 5 million yuan, which does not include the salary of the crew. The fuel cost is 15, yuan for a short flight, and 13 million yuan is not enough for the operation cost of other planes.
However, in 211, all kinds of gossip were flying in Zhao Benshan. First, a well-known domestic expert said that the duet program was "vulgar", and the official media also published "Love in the Country", saying that the series of "Love in the Country" was thin and vague, and it was difficult to show the true artistic character and aesthetic value of the rural drama. The outside world is even more rumored that Zhao Benshan is involved in the underworld, colluding with corrupt officials, gambling abroad, and hiding 2 tons of gold at home. These rumors inevitably have a negative impact on Zhao Benshan.
This means that Zhao Benshan's program, like others, must be approved by the expert group before it can be put on the Spring Festival Gala in 212. Zhao Benshan prepared two sketches, one of which was supposed to be performed by his disciples, but none of them passed. He finally took out the work to be performed at the Liaoning Spring Festival Evening, and was finally killed. There was no Zhao Benshan program in the 212 Spring Festival Evening. Fortunately, the director group still gave Zhao Benshan enough face and made him the deputy director and director of language programs at the Spring Festival Evening. However, Zhao Benshan also lost interest in the Spring Festival Gala and withdrew from it.
In p>214, some mainstream media publicly criticized Zhao Benshan by name. "The old man in Northeast China who gagged on the stage made a lot of money, bought a plane, married a young wife, had a beautiful daughter, accepted many apprentices who bowed down, got to know many leaders in Niu Niu, gained several layers of mystery, became an overbearing president and reached the peak of his life!" This time, Zhao Benshan couldn't laugh any more, not only because he couldn't laugh, but even because he was depressed and upset. At this point, only by retiring can he be calm and secure.
In recent years, not only has Zhao Benshan dropped out of the public eye, but also the disciples who became angry with him have been having scandals. In 212, Wang Xiaobao rear-ended a taxi and got into a fight with the taxi driver. Later, things got worse and worse, and Zhao Benshan had to personally apologize for his apprentice. He Shufeng, who plays the role of "Xie Yongqiang", deliberately broke the landing pole regardless of the security of the community, and threatened that "it was just hitting the pole."? I lose money! Meng Lingyu, who plays "Pi Changshan", was even caught beating his wife and mother-in-law. Later, he even abandoned his wife and children and refused to pay the living expenses.
Zhao Benshan's favorite disciple "Northeast F4", Little Shenyang, Song Xiaobao, Liu Xiaoguang and Wang Xiaoli have all been reported to spend the night with fans. His female disciples, Zhao Dan and Guo Jing, were jailed in April this year for the crime of producing and selling counterfeit drugs. In 217, Ren Jiao, the most beautiful female disciple of Zhao Benshan, died naked in a hotel in Suzhou, where she lived with Huayi Xiaosheng William. Ren Jiao's agent said that her death was an accident and had nothing to do with anyone.
It is said that there is a family rule in Zhao Benshan. Disciples who want to divorce must get his consent. His most proud disciples "Ya Dan" and Wang Jinlong walked into the wedding hall under his auspices, and ended up divorced a few years later, hitting Master hard in the face.
Zhao Benshan has gone downhill, and his disciples seem to lack discipline, and the situation is constant, which has added endless troubles to Zhao Benshan. Zhao Benshan, who occasionally leaves the country, has white hair and a thin figure. His daughter broke the news that her own plane has become a burden, and she can't sell it if she wants to. It costs a lot to raise and, more importantly, she can't fly a few times a year.
thirty years in the east and thirty years in the west. Zhao Benshan certainly didn't expect such rapid changes in the future during its glorious period. However, he has his own time since then, and there is no noise around him in the past. When he is free, he will play erhu and hum a ditty with his old friends, write Heart Sutra with a brush, and when he rises, he will also play his beloved Erhu "Deep Night".
In a blink of an eye, it has been eight years since Zhao Benshan left the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, perhaps for too long. The audience began to miss the Spring Festival Gala with Zhao Benshan, making Zhao Benshan the highest voice of the audience.
