How to evaluate China's comedies?

As an ordinary audience, I think Peisi Chen's sketches, Stephen Chow's movies, Zhao Benshan's sketches, Degang Guo's cross talk, and the drama of Twist FunAge are all the peaks of China's comedies in the past 30 years, which have added joy to our lives. I think that's enough.

◆ Peisi Chen Sketch

Before Peisi Chen, sketching was just a way to evaluate students' performance. The main assessment is your performance skills, line skills and stage expressiveness, which has nothing to do with comedy. However, after Peisi Chen brought this form of performance to the stage of the Spring Festival Evening, the word "sketch" gradually became a proper noun and a comedy form, so it can be said that Peisi Chen was the founder of China's comedy sketch.

Peisi Chen's sketch mainly lies in the plot and exaggerated body movements. Although it is not completely out of the scope of stage play, due to Mr. Peisi Chen's profound understanding of comedy and performance, sketch has become a peak of China comedy.

In Mr. Peisi Chen's classic essay "The Leading Role and the Supporting Role", the story is based on a small point, which is nothing more than the contradiction between the leading role and the supporting role, and then the identity dislocation is launched around this contradiction. In the role exchange between the protagonist and the supporting role, the script set in the story is more perfect, which satirizes the facial makeup behavior of people relying on clothes. More interestingly, in the sketch, Peisi Chen plays the supporting role of the protagonist.

However, in the whole sketch, Peisi Chen is also the protagonist, so we expand our association according to this structure. In real life, is Peisi Chen, who plays the leading role in the sketch, the leading role or the supporting role? Looking back at ourselves, are we protagonists or supporting actors in life? Or change roles at any time? So how do we complete this identity transformation? How do you determine your identity? What happens if you don't agree? Is it like a comedy in a sketch, or is it just the opposite sketch and tragedy?

Mr. Peisi Chen's sketches originated from life and are higher than life, which is thought-provoking.

◆ Stephen Chow movies

Stephen Chow has caught up with the golden age of Hong Kong movies. As the saying goes, one is Stephen Chow every two weeks. Stephen Chow's comedy was the pinnacle of all comedies in Hong Kong at that time, which was incomparable to other New Year films.

On the surface, Stephen Chow's classic film "Tang Bohu Dianchouxiang" is playing Tang Yin, a talented person in the Ming Dynasty, but in fact it shows the confusion and reincarnation of life. When you have gone through all kinds of hardships, cold or hunger, made a lot of jokes and finally won back the beautiful woman, you thought that the prince and princess would live happily together, but in fact, the woman you are about to marry is no different from all the women you have married before. She has a woman who loves playing mahjong.

Yes! You are the same from beginning to end. Why is this woman required to be different from other women? So, shouldn't we think about the good and look at the good in others? Think again. When we are down and out, does anyone want to see our special side? If not, why not start from yourself and pay attention to the bright spots of others?

Although some dirty scenes often appear in Stephen Chow's comedies, the flaws do not cover up their flaws, which will not affect the greatness and profundity of Stephen Chow's comedies.

◆ Zhao Benshan Sketch

Compared with Peisi Chen's sketches, Zhao Benshan's personal style is more obvious. His clothes have hardly changed, and he is almost a farmer in Northeast China. However, it is not easy to express profound meaning in every scene. You see, although Mr. Stephen Chow has been playing a nobody, his role is always changing, and the audience will not be tired of aesthetics. But Mr. Zhao Benshan's role is self-narrow, and if he can't innovate, the audience will easily get bored.

In Zhao Benshan's classic essay Uncle Niu Somatosensory, there is no irony in praising Qingshui. Ironically, the corruption of a township enterprise eats every meal, all the leftovers are broken, and all the broken ones are thrown away, which is very extravagant and wasteful, but such a extravagant and wasteful enterprise has no sense of social responsibility at all. At the end of the sketch, Uncle Niu, played by Teacher Zhao Benshan, figured it out that coming to this township enterprise is sheer nonsense. This is a nonsense enterprise, and such nonsense enterprises are the cancer of the whole society.

Mr. Degang Guo's cross talk and the drama of Twist FunAge are also great. Mr. Degang Guo and the Mahua FunAge team are the leading figures in the comedy field in China today. If you want to see Degang Guo's cross talk, you can go to Deyunshe Theatre. If you want to see Mahua FunAge's drama, you can buy tickets at Mahua FunAge official website and enjoy their comedy performance on the spot. It is better than watching me ramble on Baidu Q&A.
