When Guo Degang stood on the stage, his eyes were blazing and he had a firm smile, which left a deep impression on people. With his unique cross talk style, he has captured a large number of audiences in the past two decades and has become the most prestigious cross talk actor in China.
His performances continue to produce witty words, which can make the audience laugh continuously, and some viewers even say: "If you think a cross talk of Guo Degang is not funny enough, then watch another one" This sentence vividly shows Guo Degang's status and influence in the cross talk world.
With the rise of fame, Guo Degang's horizons have also broadened, and he is no longer satisfied with his personal achievements; He began to think about how to contribute more to the cross talk career, so he came up with the idea of creating his own cross talk team.
With this great dream, Guo Degang founded Deyun Club, hoping to cultivate more cross talk talents and make this traditional art glow with new vitality in the new era.
After the establishment of Deyun Club, Guo Degang began to vigorously absorb talents with cross talk talents. He is like a loving father, welcoming all young people who love cross talk to join this big family with open arms.
Under his guidance, Deyun Club has gradually become an emerging force in the cross talk industry, attracting many talented young cross talk actors.
However, with the rapid rise of Deyun Club, some problems began to emerge. As Guo Degang said: "When the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds", and the interior of Deyun Club has gradually become "mixed".
The behavior of some members began to deviate from the original intention of Deyun Club, causing public doubts and criticism.
Even so, Guo Degang is still full of confidence in the future of Deyun Club. He is convinced that as long as he sticks to the right direction, Deyun Club will be able to overcome all difficulties and continue to shine in the cross talk world.
He often admonished his disciples to keep in mind the original intention of the establishment of Deyun Club and not to forget the essential core of cross talk.
The success of Deyun Society, in a sense, is a microcosm of the development of traditional art in modern society. Although Mr. Guo Degang's personal success has played a decisive role in it, Deyun Club is also facing many opportunities and challenges.
As Mr. Guo Degang expects, the future of Deyun Club will be written by this group of young people, who shoulder the heavy responsibility of inheritance and innovation, and inject new vitality into this art while maintaining the charm of traditional cross talk.
With the growth of Deyun Club, a group of up-and-coming young cross talk actors have emerged, and these new celebrities have to face some unexpected challenges while enjoying the spotlight.
In 2018, Zhang Yunlei quickly became the representative of the new generation of Deyun Club because of the popularity of the song "Exploring the Qingshui River". However, as his fame grew, some inappropriate behaviors in his early cross talk works were also unearthed by netizens.
In his early cross talk works, he repeatedly joked about the victims of natural disasters in Wenchuan, Tangshan, Yushu and other places, and even imitated the appearance of earthquake victims crawling out of the rubble in his performances.
After this series of inappropriate remarks were exposed, major official media criticized one after another, seriously demanding that Zhang Yunlei "learn art before learning morality". In the face of public criticism, Zhang Yunlei could only be forced to issue an apology statement, and Deyun Club also announced that he would temporarily "suspend the performance".
This turmoil seriously affected Zhang Yunlei's public image and also brought a serious negative impact on Deyun Club.
In addition to Zhang Yunlei and Qin Xiaoxian, other members of the Deyun Club have also suffered various controversies. Among them, Zhang Jiunan was exposed by his ex-wife to domestic violence in marriage many times, and was even accused of cheating and living with fans during the marriage.
These accusations seriously damaged his image, making the management of Deyun Club also questioned againAnother member, Liu Jiuru, caused controversy because of his late performance and bad attitude, after he was seriously late for a performance, not only did he not apologize, but yelled at the audience: "If I don't go down, no one can come up!" This disrespect for the audience caused a backlash from the public.
This series of events is like a series of huge thunders, tearing at the foundation of Deyun Club one after another. In a short period of time, Deyun Club has cultivated many well-known cross talk actors, but after these members became famous, various problems occurred one after another, exposing Deyun Club's shortcomings in talent management and moral education.
Previously, Guo Degang had tried his best to declare that he wanted to build Deyun Club into a cross talk group with "morality", but the reality was far from this goal.
These incidents not only had an impact on the personal development of the actors involved, but also had a negative impact on the overall image of Deyun Club. In the process of pursuing commercial success, Deyun Club is faced with the problem of maintaining the moral bottom line of traditional cross talk art.
These controversies and challenges have triggered people's reflection: on the road of pursuing fame and fortune, is Deyun Club gradually losing itself?
With the explosion of Deyun Club members, the new power of fan circle culture has been unconsciously formed. This kind of fan culture from the entertainment industry has begun to have a profound impact on the traditional cross talk industry, and it has also brought unprecedented challenges to Deyun Club.
Zhang Yunlei's fan group is a typical representative of this phenomenon. After Zhang Yunlei caused controversy due to inappropriate remarks, his fans did not choose to treat it rationally, but rashly and blindly defended it.
They "fought" around the Internet to defend their idols, however, this excessive maintenance did not save Zhang Yunlei's image, but made the situation worse, and some extreme fans even blamed the victims of the disaster, claiming that they were "hypocritical, expensive, and morally kidnapped", which made the public completely angry and made Zhang Yunlei's situation worse.
Qin Xiaoxian's fan base presents another extreme phenomenon. When Qin Xiaoxian's relationship is exposed, they often don't care about the feelings of the parties, but judge their personal lives.
Through clues, they found out that Qin Xiaoxian's fiancée was actor Xin Yuxi, and had a heated discussion on the Internet When Qin Xiaoxian denied the relationship, some fans committed online violence against Xin Yuxi, calling her an "older and outdated actor", just to gain popularity, this behavior seriously interfered with the artist's private life, and also brought a negative impact on the image of Deyun Club.
What is worrying is that the fan circle culture is affecting the relationship within Deyun Club. The conflict between Qin Xiaoxian and his senior brother Zhang Jiutai stems from the inappropriate remarks of fans in the group. Some fans abused Zhang Jiutai unreasonably in the group, but although Qin Xiaoxian was present, he did not stop it.
This situation was revealed to Zhang Jiutai by the "inner ghost", which led to the deterioration of the relationship between the two, and the former brother is now suspicious because of the intervention of fans.
The erosion of fan circle culture has changed the relationship between Deyun Club members and fans, and affected the ecology of cross talk, a traditional art. Young cross talk actors began to pay too much attention to traffic and popularity, rather than improving their skills.
In the process of pursuing commercial success, they gradually deviated from the essence of cross talk art.
This phenomenon put Deyun Club in a dilemma. On the one hand, the fan circle culture has brought unprecedented attention and commercial value to Deyun Club; On the other hand, it is also quietly changing the culture and values of Deyun Club.
In this case, how to maintain the attractiveness of Deyun Club while not being affected by the fan circle culture has become a difficult problem for Guo Degang.
In the face of such a complex situation, Deyun Club needs to re-examine its own positioning and development direction. Major issues such as how to guide fans to rationally chase stars, how to strike a balance between commercial interests and artistic pursuits, and how to adhere to the traditional bottom line of cross talk in the modern entertainment environment will become challenges that Deyun Club must face in its future development.
The rapid expansion of Deyun Club has brought unprecedented management challenges to Guo Degang. As a private enterprise, Deyun Club does not have strong capital support and needs to carry out hematopoiesis by itself.
Guo Degang has the burden of feeding hundreds of people, and this financial pressure has forced him to make some compromises.
Guo Degang's strategy of recruiting disciples has enabled Deyun Club to absorb a large number of people with cross talk talents, but this practice has also brought the problem of uneven quality of members. When recruiting people, Deyun Club does not look at the applicant's academic qualifications and abilities, but only whether they have a talent for cross talk.
Although this practice has injected fresh blood into the cross talk industry, it also buries hidden dangers that members who have not received systematic education may have deviations in their overall quality.
Guo Degang tried to educate the Deyun Club through his influence, but what he could do was limited. As he said, the "morality" of more than 100 people in Deyun Club depends on him alone to educate.
However, even if Guo Degang has the ability, he is just an ordinary person, and it is impossible to take care of everyone at the same time, and it is inevitable that there will be "fish that slip through the net", which also explains why members of Deyun Club frequently violate the word "de".
In the face of economic pressure, Guo Degang chose to encourage or acquiesce to his members to enter the entertainment industry, in order to bring more benefits to Deyun Club, but this decision also brought new troubles.
Young cross talk actors don't know anything about the complexity of the entertainment industry, and this makes them often suffer from the backlash of traffic after they easily enter this field.
A fundamental problem facing Deyun Club is how to meet the needs of the modern entertainment market and realize its own commercial value while adhering to the traditional art of cross talk.
For Guo Degang, he always hopes to continue to promote traditional culture and not forget the fundamental cross talk, but at the same time, he also clearly understands that in the market economy environment, it is understandable that private enterprises should follow the trend in order to pursue profits.
Deyun Club is at a critical stage of development, and Guo Degang and his team are facing severe challenges. The fundamental reason why Deyun Club is gradually declining is that they have entered the entertainment industry.
This is indeed a choice made to meet the market demand, but it has made Deyun Club deviate from the original intention when it was founded.
Looking back on the development process of Deyun Club, there is indeed a glorious journey. But with the frequent collapse of members and frequent scandals, there are various signs that Deyun Club is facing serious difficulties.
Behind the superficial brilliance, there is a lack of "morality", a phenomenon that has caused public concern about the future of Deyun Club.
Deyun Club is facing many challenges and needs to re-examine its positioning and development direction. Guo Degang once said that he hopes that the members of Deyun Club can bring more high-quality cross talk works to the audience in the future, instead of forgetting that cross talk is the foundation of Deyun Club.
These words may point out the direction for the future development of Deyun Club.
Deyun Club needs to start with internal management, strengthen the moral education of members, reshape the corporate culture atmosphere, and make "morality" the core value. At the same time, on the basis of maintaining the charm of traditional cross talk, we should explore innovative performance forms, so that this traditional art can radiate new vitality in the new era.
In addition, Deyun Club also needs to re-examine its relationship with fan culture, including how to guide fans to chase stars rationally, and how to find a balance between commercial interests and artistic pursuits, which are unavoidable problems in the future development of Deyun Club.
