Benshan's self-report
Happy childhood of bitter children
I am an orphan. I was very naughty when I was studying. At that time, I felt that the biggest advantage of not having parents was that there was no one in the teacher's home. At that time, I studied with my uncle, played erhu and sang sanxian. He is blind, heavy-headed and sensitive. Every time he listens to the melody, I watch the stage performance. I learned sanxian to imitate the feeling of the blind. I can say that no one in China can pretend to be blind. As a matter of fact, Uncle Blind was my first art teacher, and I was the blind man who first became popular in the Northeast.
The bumpy road to stardom
1986 I went to Tieling Troupe, and now my official identity is still an actor in the troupe. At the earliest, Pan Changjiang and I performed a duet "Grand View Lantern" in Shenyang, and performed more than 200 performances in succession. May be too sensational, provoked other troupe, there are hundreds of blind people stuck at the gate of the theater hit a venue, said to dig out Zhao Benshan's eyes.
But it was Jiang Kun who really discovered my Bole. At that time, he led the Central Rap Troupe to perform in Tieling. The local people say it's not as good as Tieling Opera Troupe, so Jiang Kun calls us the Troupe. They sat in the audience of the gymnasium and watched us perform for them. At first, more than 20 Beijing artists sat in their seats, but later they all fell to the ground laughing. Jiang Kun asked me for a tape, saying that he would take it back to CCTV and recommend it to the Spring Festival party. I didn't take it seriously. I was so busy taking photos with Jiang Kun, Guo Quanbao and others that my ears trembled with excitement.
Fourth, CCTV was rejected.
Later, the Spring Festival party really came to me. At that time, Director Zou Youkai and Li Shuangjiang met me at Tieling Guest House and asked me to perform a program in my room. I said to give you three tickets to the gym, where the effect is good. Of course, the three men turned around and went back to Beijing without watching the performance with tickets. I didn't know I had offended them until I got instructions. But director Zou told me to go to Beijing, but I was sent home every year. One year, the troupe asked me to bring ten bottles of Moutai as a gift. I really don't know where to send it. I am afraid of being rejected. Drink one bottle a day in the media hotel and be told to go home on the tenth day. Later, I told the head of the delegation that all ten bottles of wine had been distributed, and people still didn't like our program.
The bigger joke is that 1988 Spring Festival party has decided that I will participate in the performance of Harbin Branch, and the program was recorded in advance. Everyone in Tieling knows that I attended the Spring Festival party, but later my program was not broadcast, but I waited until "Goodbye" was broadcast on TV. A year later, my first appearance on CCTV was at the National Day party, followed by the "blind date" at the 1990 Spring Festival party. Won the first prize of the program for three consecutive years. 1994 I went to the Spring Festival Gala crew very late because of something at home. The director group decided not to let me go because I was too arrogant. This was the only time I was banned, but it also taught me a lot.
Liu Laogen is a new attempt.
Liu Laogen was my first time as a director and was influenced by Zhang Yimou. I released his Happy Time, and his simplicity, peace and simplicity really moved me and had a great influence on me. Actually, I'm not used to film and television performances, but I think I should direct one myself when I have the opportunity, so don't bother others. Besides, I also look at my ability. I think if I put my heart into it, I will succeed. In fact, I have always had a fear. What if one day my sketch amuses someone and makes them unhappy? Trying new things is also learning.
A person who causes family pain
Someone asked me what happened now. I said no, my biggest wish now is to "live well and don't have an accident." The greatest wealth in my life is a painful childhood. I don't have any pain or dissatisfaction now. On the contrary, I am a person who will bring pain to my family. Like my wife, I perform outside, and she is the only one who takes care of the children at home. I can only give her material life satisfaction, and nothing else.

Stage performance:
His affair with her (200 1)
An artistic angel who laughs at hundreds of millions of audiences.
China audience can appreciate Zhao Benshan's sketch art today, and it is said that they should thank Jiang Kun. 1987, Jiang Kun accidentally watched a performance by Zhao Benshan in Tieling, Liaoning Province, and he strongly recommended Zhao Benshan to the director of China TV Station. At that time, he said that there was a very good actor in Liaoning. He performed a program, and some of the audience fainted from laughter and some had a heart attack. His impromptu performance on the stage and the mobilization of the audience's emotions are excellent and quite attractive. This man's name is Zhao Benshan.
As soon as Zhao Benshan stepped onto the 1990 CCTV Spring Festival Evening, the sketch of northern Liaoning took root in CCTV. If there is no sketch in northern Liaoning in the annual Spring Festival Evening, the audience will feel tasteless. For more than ten years, Zhao Benshan has been deeply loved by hundreds of millions of viewers.
Why are Zhao Can Benshan's sketches loved by the audience? Cui Kai, vice-chairman of Liaoning Federation of Literary and Art Circles, said that the northern Liaoning sketch, represented by Zhao Benshan, is an artistic style rooted in the unique culture of Northeast China, with a strong northeast flavor, and it is this original northeast flavor that conquered the national audience.
The climate in Northeast China is cold, and the vast Songliao Plain is very fast in winter. What do people in Cat Dong Er live on for a long time? Get a brazier, sit on the heatable adobe sleeping platform around the mound, sing a local opera "Errenzhuan", tell stories and jokes, and make everyone laugh. Traditional and modern, all kinds of emotions and feelings are vented. It can be said that the harsh natural geographical environment in the northeast has forced out the unique culture in the north. The language in northern Liaoning is full of lively factors and has strong vitality. Especially in the local opera "Errenzhuan", the hero is called "Ugly" and the heroine is called "Dan". Clowns mediate the atmosphere, make jokes and make a series of impromptu remarks.
The profound cultural heritage of Black Land nourishes Zhao Benshan. He is so familiar with the art of laughter, and his natural sense of comedy has formed the unique artistic charm of Zhao Benshan's sketches-everything is taken from life and spoken through Zhao Benshan's mouth is a joke.
It should be said that the lifeline of Zhao Benshan's sketches is language. His authentic northern Liaoning dialect is penetrating because of its unique grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary. His mouth was full of pimples, wisecracks, two-part allegorical sayings and spiritual practice, and the baggage shook so loudly that the audience was deeply intoxicated. In this way, he conquered hundreds of millions of audiences with the unique humor, exaggeration and humor of northern farmers.
The greatest language feature of Zhao Benshan's sketches is rich and vivid spoken English. Zhao Benshan inherited an important artistic heritage from "Errenzhuan", that is "talking". He can not only accurately grasp the rhythm and rhythm of traditional speaking, but also create a brand-new speaking style with modern words and country slang according to the aesthetic taste of modern audiences. The language has a vivid rhythm, is very catchy and full of charm, and contains a charming sense of tranquility.
Secondly, the language of Zhao Benshan's sketches seems relaxed, but it is actually thought-provoking. "As long as you young people jump up and hug, we old people can only rely on it." In "Blind Date", Xu Laokun's words reach the hearts of the audience, which makes people laugh and have a sour feeling in their hearts. Zhao Benshan, with his profound understanding and feeling of life, life and art, accurately grasped the turning point of various characters and the psychology and emotion of the audience, and every sentence and word can fit the psychology of the audience.
Zhao Benshan's "Fading" series is the most dazzling scenery in his artistic works. He is weak, procrastinating, witty in speech and cunning in kindness. From time to time, he throws a knot in his mouth and a small burden, and suddenly a sentence that makes people laugh. In the sketch "Blind Date", when Maya asked what it meant, and "What is happiness? Suffer. " Xu Laokun's series of teasing and well-intentioned teasing about Maya is a kind of rebellious expression when he loves to the extreme, which cleverly sets off the old man's infatuation with Maya.
Moreover, Zhao Benshan's language has a sense of comedy. He plays various comedy roles in a series of sketches. Their age, identity, image and personality are all different, but only one thing is the same. That is to say, the protagonist can never leave his ugliness, including appearance, language and action. He played the ugly ones in a serious way. For example, in Blind Date, Zhao Benshan designed body language for Xu Laokun, such as stumbling and occasionally rubbing his toes on the ground. These audiences don't feel ugly, they just feel funny and amused, which makes people feel the kindness and truth of the characters.
"The producer of" Laughter "is respectable. Zhao Benshan and his sketch art touched the laughing nerve of the times and brought an era of large-scale laughter to the Chinese nation." Yu, a famous scholar, appreciates Zhao Benshan's sketch art very much. He said: Laughter also needs a reason. Zhao Benshan's sketches provide people with this reason. After superb art and well-meaning teasing, artists make people laugh, relax and enjoy emotions. From farmers to professors, no one needs a knowing smile.
The sketches in northern Liaoning have been active on the stage for more than ten years. In the past ten years, the audience in China have been intoxicated with the laughter brewed by black soil culture. In the past ten years, sketch artists in northern Liaoning, represented by Zhao Benshan, have been fighting for it, constantly innovating, surpassing and upgrading themselves, and holding out a piece of fine art for the audience.
In this evaluation of Zhao Benshan.
"Zhao Benshan is a great artist."
More than ten years ago, Zhao Benshan, a peasant actor from the black land of Northeast China, brought laughter and laughter from the countryside to CCTV Spring Festival Evening, which attracted the attention of the Chinese people, and also made Liaobei's sketches, the original humorous and earthy fresh artistic style, rank among the highest art halls in China, and instantly won the applause of the national TV audience.
Undoubtedly, since the 1980s, Zhao Benshan, a comedian, has won the most laughter and applause from China people, and some even called him "Chaplin" of China.
Mr. Yu, a famous scholar and former president of Shanghai Theatre Academy, has been paying close attention to Zhao Benshan for a long time with the critical and unique vision of drama theory experts.
12 years ago, he once said that Zhao Benshan was a great artist; /kloc-Today, 0/2 years later, he said, "Zhao Benshan is really a great artist, and today his performance is even more perfect. /kloc-the artist who amazed us 0/2 years ago, 12 years later became an artist who amazed the people of the whole country. "
Recently, the second national Zhao Benshan Sketch Art Seminar was held in Tieling. At the meeting, Yu Xiansheng spoke highly of Zhao Benshan and his sketch art: many artists were born by the people, and Zhao Benshan was a great artist. I felt the same way when he first became famous. I really hope that there will be more cultural celebrities in China, starting from the starting point of each culture and constantly improving, and then his culture and the land where he lives will reach a new height.
Cui Kai, vice chairman of Liaoning Federation of Literary and Art Circles and sketch playwright, told the reporter: "The first Zhao Benshan sketch art seminar was held in Guilin on 1990. No one expected that Yu Xiansheng would really be invited to the meeting. It was the first time that he saw Zhao Benshan's sketches, and he spoke highly of them. At that time, I suggested that Zhao Benshan go to Shanghai Theatre Academy for further study. Mr. Yu quickly said that it was absolutely impossible. The last play produced thousands of students every year, but neither Zhao Benshan nor Zhao Benshan could produce them.
Yu is not a northerner, but his understanding of northern culture is so profound: Zhao Benshan turned the suffering of the people in Northeast China into laughter, and taking pleasure in suffering is a realm; The people of China have suffered for too long, and people need laughter too much. I use poetic language to describe the northeast sketch and the duet. "Some people think that only foreign culture is culture, and nothing under our feet is culture. If culture and art reached a higher level, in retrospect, it was necessary. Local culture is the highest standard of modern cultural research, and the return trend of culture is the self-confirmation of China national culture. The land I step on is beautiful, and the land I step on can also give me flowers without buying them from Holland. "
The truly great works must be on the rocky seashore, not the marble-patched seashore; The real sea must have a lot of sediment, and the real folk art can also have sediment. Yu believes that why Zhao Benshan is welcomed by so many people is a question that goes far beyond the thinking of many theorists. There is no chapter in previous literary theories to explain Zhao Benshan phenomenon, and this artistic phenomenon will be studied and summarized by future theoretical workers.
Yu said that I accepted the western reception aesthetics very early, and this concept is deeply rooted in my heart. The "accepted" status is a criterion. If we look at Zhao Benshan phenomenon from the perspective of "Reception Aesthetics", many questions will be answered. CCTV now understands that the standard for judging columns is ratings, and ratings are more important than any awards. For many actors, the psychology of the Spring Festival gala is very fragile, and the test that night is very cruel. Whether it was accepted or not, that night. Zhao Benshan phenomenon is in a very grand acceptance state, and hundreds of millions of people in China need and like Zhao Benshan's sketches for more than ten years. If we ignore this point, it will be a rejection of aesthetic reality, aesthetics and art are difficult to study, and people put their emotions there that day. If you don't approve of Zhao Benshan, you are saying that the millions of viewers in China were wrong that night. It's hard to find an actor who has been popular with so many people for so many years. Zhao Benshan has been accepted by China people for a long time, which constitutes the history of contemporary psychological aesthetics in China. After this test, if he is not a great artist, what kind of artist is he? When will great artists be born?
