In my lifetime, I am happy to meet you, please click "Follow", thank you for your support.
Mr. Huang Hong, who is over 60 years old, sits quietly on the elegant small balcony of his home, savoring a cup of fragrant Ceylon black tea. Sunlight softly poured down his wrinkled cheeks through the floor-to-ceiling windows, making his gaze feel as if he had traveled back to that glittering time tunnel.
With the passage of time, he once stood in the middle of the stage eagerly awaited by thousands of audiences on countless cold spring nights, dressed in luxurious and dazzling robes, and freely told vivid and interesting topics, making the audience laugh constantly and applaud thunderously. Yes, at that time, he was the "King of Comedy" who was well-known at home and abroad, and the stage of the Spring Festival Gala was a place of glory that he was proud of.
His unique sketch "Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin" is still warmly sought after and widely praised by the majority of comedy lovers, which is unforgettable.
Recalling the glorious days of the past, Mr. Huang Hong's eyes flashed with a faint longing. As an outstanding performing artist of a generation, he has always pursued the path of art and unreservedly demonstrated his outstanding talent.
However, the gods of fate did not always favor him in this way, and just as his career was at its peak, a sudden storm caused a huge change in the trajectory of his life.
Mr. Huang Hong has been passionate about the performing arts since he was a child, which is inseparable from his strong family background. He was born into a family of performing artists, and his ancestors were active on the performance stage, paving a broad road to the temple of art.
The family's rich artistic atmosphere undoubtedly became Mr. Huang Hong's earliest enlightenment mentor. His parents had high hopes that he would become a dazzling acting superstar, so they gave him full support and careful training.
He was systematically trained in a professional acting school at an early age, and during his time at school, Mr. Huang Hong showed an extraordinary talent and an amazing memory ability, and was able to easily recite those complicated and lengthy scripts.
Until the age of 13, Mr. Huang Hong was fortunate to be selected into the famous Shenyang Military Region Art Troupe at that time. Although he has to spend most of his time in a military uniform, his main responsibility is to bring a great performance to the audience.
During the nine years of the art troupe, Mr. Huang Hong frequently appeared on the stage, laying a solid foundation for future success.
Since childhood, Huang Hong, who has a fiery dream of pursuing stage art, has firmly grasped every precious opportunity to perform in actual combat during the military art troupe, and constantly tempered his superb acting skills before and after the stage. During that period of military career, his love for acting career climbed to a new and brilliant level.
In the golden stage of his career, Huang Hong can be described as famous, appearing on the stage of CCTV's Spring Festival Gala for 24 consecutive times, presenting countless laughable classics to the audience, which can be called the evergreen tree that will never wither on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.
Back in 1989, it was the first time Huang Hong stepped on the sacred stage of the Spring Festival Gala. Although his debut film, The Recruitment, had not yet reached the level of perfection, it had already shown his unique comedic talent with witty humor. However, what really made him famous and famous in the field of comedy was the sketch "Superborn Guerrilla" jointly created by him and Mr. Song Dandan. This satirical work left an indelible deep memory for the audience, thus establishing Huang Hong's lofty status and widespread popularity in the comedy industry.
If we want to talk about Huang Hong's most acclaimed outstanding work, it has to be the shocking and profound "Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin". Although this sketch is full of laughter, it allows people to taste the various states of life in laughter, and feel Huang Hong's unique creative talent and keen insight, which is the fundamental reason why he has won the reputation of "King of Comedy".
In addition to his busy work, Huang Hong also lives a happy life. His wife Duan Xiaojie is also an accomplished actor, and the two have formed a deep love in their youth. It is no exaggeration to say that Huang Hong in that era had a prosperous career, a harmonious and warm family, and his life reached an unprecedented peak.
However, who would have expected that just when Huang Hong's career was at its peak, his life trajectory would take a huge turn. In 2013, he was suddenly appointed as the director of Bayi Film Studio, a decision that undoubtedly attracted widespread attention and discussion from all walks of life.
How could Huang Hong, who has always been known for his modesty and low profile, be able to obtain such an important administrative position through legitimate means? This is the first reaction and question of many people.
Countless kinds of baseless speculation and malicious abuse instantly appeared on the Internet, and many people even bluntly attacked Huang Hong for obtaining this position by illegal means such as deception or bribery.
Although there was no conclusive evidence to prove these accusations at the time, such rumors snowballed and brought unprecedented changes and blows to Huang Hong's life and career.
As public opinion continued to heat up, Bayi Factory eventually had to respond and explain. The factory publicly denied and sternly refuted the dark assertions of untruthfulness in various speculations.
In the face of such tremendous pressure, Huang Hong appeared very helpless and painful. He said frankly that in fact, he decided to leave the Spring Festival Gala and become the director of the factory, completely because of his age and limited energy, and he was really unable to take care of the two heavy responsibilities of artistic creation and administrative management at the same time.
Faced with such a heavy work burden, he had no choice but to give up his beloved sketch career and devote himself to administrative work.
Hearing this explanation, people have increased their understanding and sympathy for the controversial artist. However, the snowball effect of public opinion has been unstoppable, and all kinds of rumors have come one after another, and there are even rumors that Huang Hong has been investigated and questioned by relevant departments.
In fact, as early as a few years ago, Huang Hong had deliberately quit the entertainment industry and stayed away from stage life. Over the years, he has devoted himself to the sketch business, which has exhausted him physically and mentally.
In 2008, he revealed to his best friend Guo Da that he wanted to retire and spend his old age in peace.
As an old partner and long-time confidant, Guo Da knows Huang Hong's personality well. He firmly believes that as long as Huang Hong still has the strength to spare, he will definitely stick to the sketch stage without hesitation, and will never retire lightly.
Guo Da had witnessed Huang Hong's obsession and dedication to work, so he was skeptical of Huang Hong's retirement, and even sneered.
In Guo Da's memory, Huang Hong is a person who devotes all his efforts and energy to his work, and has never heard of the word "retirement". Even if he is not in good health, he will not hesitate to stick to his post and never let himself leave.
It is this firm belief in seeing death as if it were home, which has created Huang Hong's outstanding achievements in the field of comedy art!
As the person closest to Huang Hong's life in the family, the family members are undoubtedly the ones who have the best insight into his personality traits. As Huang Hong's wife, Duan Xiaojie deeply understands and respects her husband's persistent pursuit of art. Although her husband often feels tired and dissatisfied when he is away from home for a long time, she always chooses to support Huang Hong's career aspirations with tolerance and understanding.
In Duan Xiaojie's eyes, it is really a great happiness to be able to accompany a husband like Huang Hong who is dedicated to work and constantly challenges his own limits, and spends the most precious time in his life together.
