Guo Degang and Zhang Wenshun are friends who have forgotten their years, they founded the Deyun Society together, in the early days of its establishment, there will often be peers to provoke, and Mr. Zhang Wenshun always stepped forward, which also made Guo Degang grateful.
Once, when an artist asked to boycott the Deyun Society, Zhang Wenshun even rushed to the other party to reason, scolded the other party, "what is the ability of the yin people behind the back", and said that he had cancer, so that the other party had the ability to rush to him.
On February 16, 2009, Zhang Wenshun's grandfather died, and Guo Degang asked Deyun Society to suspend the performance for seven days to commemorate Zhang Wenshun. Therefore, in the backstage of the Deyun Society, Guo Degang enshrined Zhang Wenshun's tablet.

Later, the number of actors gradually increased, and the famous actor Li Wenshan joined in, which increased his popularity and influence.

In 1958, Jin Wensheng was sent to Banqiao Farm, and during the Cultural Revolution, he moved to Shanghai to make a living by commenting on books. At that time, because I was not allowed to talk about those traditional commentaries, I adapted foreign novels such as "The Revenge of Monte Cristo", "La Traviata", and "The Three Musketeers" into long commentaries and performed them at universities in Shanghai, and many students and professors took the books to listen.
Jin Wensheng's apprentices are very famous, in addition to Guo Degang, there are also Yu Qian, Li Jing, Gao Feng, Liang Hongda and so on. On May 25, 2017, after Jin Wensheng's death, Guo Degang enshrined his tablet in the backstage of the Deyun Society.

The Deyun Society established by Guo Degang was not smooth sailing, it was rejected by the mainstream cross-talk community, and it was about to be marginalized, and finally Hou Yaowen came forward, and Hou Yaowen saw Guo Degang's prerequisites, he said: "Guo Degang in his early thirties, he will have more traditional cross-talk than us, our cross-talk team should be expanded, should be united, and should give children a bowl of rice to eat", and then Hou Yaowenli excluded the crowd to accept Guo Degang as an apprentice.
On June 23, 2007, Hou Yaowen died, and Guo Degang enshrined his tablet in the background. Because Hou Yaowen liked to drink Coke before he died, Guo Degang deliberately let people put a large bottle of Coke in front of Hou Yaowen's tablet.

Oriental Shuo
5. Oriental Shuo
Guo Degang's Deyun Society backstage, why is it dedicated to Dongfang Shuo?
Originally, during the period when Dongfang Shuo was a Lang official in the Han Dynasty, the imperial court was troubled, and most of the literati were envoys to the four directions, only Dongfang Shuo and Mei Gao and Guo She were around Emperor Wu of Han, mocking and witty, laughing and entertaining people, so people called them funny. Therefore, today's cross-talk circle calls Dongfang Shuo the grandfather. Therefore, Guo Degang enshrined the tablet of Dongfang Shuo in the background.
