Today's young quyi audience, hearing about Jin Wensheng's great name, 80% is from Guo Degang's mouth.
Before 2006, Jin Wensheng was only a well-known Shandong fast book and storyteller in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei qu art circle, and until his old age, he still lived a hard life, and he still lived by storytelling in a small bookstore that could only accommodate dozens of people in Tianjin.
In 2006, Jin Wensheng simultaneously accepted Guo Degang, Yu Qian, Li Jing and Gao Feng as disciples of the Xihe Dagu Gate, and the talent teacher was famous throughout the country, and was respected by Guo Degang as the four doors of xiangsheng, storytelling, allegro and Shandong kuaishu. In fact, he did not sing allegro on the stage at all, because his Shandong-flavored Tianjin dialect, Master Wang Fengshan could not stand it, taught him a few paragraphs and then gave up; cross-talk is rarely spoken, Shandong-flavored Tianjin dialect is not like words; the real achievements are still commentaries and Shandong fast books.
Jin Wensheng's commentary is mixed, because many people do not listen to books, the main purpose is to listen to him curse.
Guo Degang's ability to scold people is well known, and his skills can even be compared with cross-talk skills. Guo Degang scolded bitterly and scolded the hearts of many people, and some of these skills were related to Jin Wen's acoustics. This old man is a master of swearing, and two-thirds of the length of his commentary is used to scold his peers, and the golden sentences are repeated.
The few sentences that impressed me the most were:
1, give me a flower basket is the true love of the song art, to sing the drum on the flower basket that is love thighs.
2, that gang of three indiscriminate said that cross-talk to accept apprentices I do not go, I do not recognize that thing, accept an apprentice also accept several thousand apprentices, you have not given the apprentice food, why not collect thousands of people? After collecting the money and setting up a few tables to eat, give the apprentice a broken notebook, tell the apprentice that this is the bottom of the sea, and look at the beating!
3, say that the total of three things in cross-talk is a formal profession, the first is to cheat on eating and drinking, the second is to scold people behind, the third is to hook up with widows, and he is afraid of being beaten by grandfathers.
4, now the cross-talk are all thieves, but also qu school that gang of children, not good to go to school to learn a mouth of ashes slag, alas ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ do not complain about them, the key to the gang of teachers on that virtue.
The apprentice Guo Degang scolded people, and Jin Wensheng also expressed his support in a clear way: "I agree with all those who have been scolded by Guo Degang." "It can be seen that this old man is indeed a man of true temperament.
In Jin Wensheng's life, there are three things worthy of special writing, namely: 28 years of incognito; there have been many women; and Guo Degang as an apprentice.
Jin Wensheng, whose original name is not known, was born in 1930 in a wealthy family in Jinan, Shandong Province, and it is said that his father was a senior officer of the Kuomintang, and the famous Xiaole Opera Garden in Quancheng was opened by his family. Later, in the middle of the family road, Jin Wensheng made a living from the ground, took the stage name King Kong, and became acquainted with his first wife, Zhang Lianxia, a female artist in Xihe.
It is rumored that during his stay in Jinan, King Kong also had a marriage with Sun Zongying, the daughter of Nangangzi Yiba, Sun Zongying, known as "Big Braid", but the details are not available.
After liberation, King Kong had a friend who opened a garden in Harbin, but because he was sick, he couldn't perform, but he received money from others in advance, so he asked King Kong to take over him. Unexpectedly, King Kong lost his wallet on the train, so he had to get off the train in Tianjin to search for relief from his peers, and happened to meet his old acquaintance Wang Fengshan.
Wang Fengshan, Ma Sanli's partner, the founder of Wang Pai Allegro and an actor in the Tianjin Radio Qu Art Troupe at the time, introduced King Kong to stay at Tianjin Radio and accepted him as an apprentice. King Kong saw that this business was good, someone was covering, and the money was also earned, so he left the stubble of his Friends in Harbin behind.
Wang Fengshan re-took the stage name Jin Wensheng for King Kong, and used this name to register for him and officially settled in Tianjin.
Jin Wensheng's Shandong Fast Book is quite distinctive, he played with a large board and a mandarin duck board during his performance, and the fight was full of tigers and tigers, with good hands, eyes, body, and steps, and both gods, shapes, words, and qi, coupled with his unique and playful stage style, he soon broke through in Jinmen.
This was the first peak of Jin Wensheng's artistic career. His performances of Shandong quick books such as "The Legend of Wu Song", "Lu Da Jie Ba", "Daguanxi", etc. were all fine works of the time, and he returned to the scene thirteen times in a row, which was warmly welcomed by the audience. In the words of Zhang Shouchen, he is "20 years old, 50 years old art".
During this period, Jin Wensheng had two marriages with female artists Li Meigeng and Shi Wenxiu. Li Meigeng was a single-string actor who later performed in the Heping District Quyi Acrobatic Troupe. Shi Wenxiu is a strange woman, she is a plum blossom drum actress, stage name Hua Xiaobao, known as the "Plum Blossom Queen", because of her white skin and beauty, people call her "Jiangmi Ren'er". His legendary experience is magical, which is not easy to describe here, and interested students can check it out for themselves.
Unfortunately, Jin Wensheng's good times did not last long, because of his father's historical problems, he was put on the hat of counter-revolution
In 1958, Grandpa Mao went to Tianjin Duck House for dinner, which triggered a large-scale crowd to watch, and Jin Wensheng, who was passing by, was stepped on by the crowd and had just bought a new shoe. Back at the unit he stomped his feet and shouted: I Nyima have no gun, I want to have a gun, I Nyima ... (Self-made brain supplement here)
As a result, it is conceivable that Jin Wensheng was sent to the Banqiao Laogai Farm; subjected to a series of life-and-death tests such as being stripped naked in winter and thrown into a well for the night. Guo Degang once said that Jin Wensheng was sentenced to death twice and did not die, although it was a great fate, but it showed how difficult it had been. After the ordeal, Jin Wensheng felt that instead of sitting still, it was better to escape; after several attempts, he really ran out, running for 28 years.
In the era when it was difficult to walk without a household registration, Jin Wensheng actually survived, wandering all the way to Shanghai, and living by saying and commenting on books. Since he could not say the traditional bibliography, he adapted world famous works such as "The Vengeance of Monte Cristo", "La Traviata", and "The Three Musketeers" into commentaries, which were very fashionable. It is said that he often went to the universities in Shanghai to perform these works, which were not only popular with the students, but many professors took books to listen to and see the style of book review.
It was not until 1985 that Tianjin Radio returned his innocence, resumed his work, and retired in 1992. After retirement, he exerted his residual heat, resumed his old business, picked up the old book-reading business, and wrote books in Tianjin Celebrity Tea House, Yanle Tea House, Longevity Garden, etc., with bibliographies such as "Qinghong Gang Yanyi", "Three Heroes Sword", "Xiangma Biography", "Yuan Wenhui", "Shooting Liu Hanchen", "Bai Zongwei Falling from the Building", "Xiao Dezhang" and so on. He said he "talks about books two hours a day, and three years can be done without turning over." ”
In 1997, Jin Wensheng came to Beijing to comment on books and met Guo Degang, who was also wandering in Beijing. Guo Degang was infected by Jin Wensheng's art and intended to worship him as a teacher. According to Jin Wensheng, "When we met, I was in Beijing to comment on books, and as soon as I arrived in Beijing, I would dry up, while Degang opened to me every day. Later, the child had the heart to worship me as a teacher, and I said- "Child, I am not famous, if you want to worship, worship a famous one!" But later, Degang still insisted on being my apprentice, and I also taught it with all my heart. ”
At that time, Guo Degang was poor and white, and Jin Wensheng only relied on a meager pension to survive, and had no money to hold a ceremony to worship the teacher. In 1999, Jin Wensheng's sixty-ninth birthday was led by Ma Zhiming, and one person put together a hundred yuan to celebrate his birthday. Guo Degang rushed back to Tianjin from Beijing to celebrate his birthday. Before the banquet, Jin Wensheng said in front of Ma Zhiming and other colleagues: "Degang this child I want to decide!" ”
Jin Wensheng called Guo Degang "Little Five", instructed him to "dig deep holes and accumulate grain", and taught him a lot of performance skills of book commentary and cross-talk. Guo Degang's stand-up comedy "Shoot Liu Hanchen", "Bai Zongwei Fell from the Building" and later the "Wonders of Ancient And Modern Times" series were all taught by Bai Jin Wensheng. Guo Degang's partner at the time, Wang Yuebo, was also influenced by Jin Wensheng to a certain extent.
In 1999, the Tianjin Radio and Television Audio-visual Art Development Center invited famous cross-talk artists from all over the world to record a number of TV cross-talk programs. Jin Wensheng recommended Guo Degang to the person in charge, Zheng Jiping, saying that he was an actor who would become a great instrument in the future. At that time, Guo Degang was only twenty-six years old, and his partner Wang Yuebo was only twenty-one years old, and out of respect for Mr. Jin, Zheng Jiping reluctantly agreed to record two paragraphs to try. After recording, Zheng Jiping was extremely satisfied, and finally recorded a total of twenty-one cross-talk for them.
This is the first time that Guo Degang and Wang Yuebo appeared on the TV screen, and now the Guo Degang that is circulating on the Internet is combing his head, and Wang Yuebo has left a plate of video materials, all of which are works at that time. Time has passed, and now Guo Degang and Wang Yuebo have each carried the banner of cross-talk and storytelling.
Jin Wensheng was not convinced by the old man, calling his twenty-year-old wife "Xiaohong", saying that he would have to marry another wife after he was eighty years old. He said, "I'm dead and this stuff is gone." But I can't die!" "After a lifetime of unruliness, how can you let fate slaughter you when you are old?"
In 2016, the 20th anniversary celebration of Deyun Society, Jin Wensheng, who was already 86 years old, took the stage in a wheelchair and won the applause of the audience as soon as he appeared.
On the morning of May 25, 2017, Mr. Jin Wensheng passed away in Tianjin at the age of 87.
Jin Wensheng's life, there are brilliant and frustrated, there is passion and ruthlessness, but always laughing and scolding, full of true temperament.
Jin Wensheng's life, traveling to Jinan, Tianjin, Shanghai, Beijing, not only has the flow of affairs, but also has the legend of peach and plum all over the world.
Si ren has passed away, putting aside the grievances and right and wrong, the coffin is determined, and the life of Jin Wensheng can be called "legendary".
He was not a performing artist with both virtue and art, but a great folk artist.
He did not have any glorious heroic deeds, but there was a mortal wonderful and good.
