In 20 19, when Wang Xiaobao performed "Wrestling Three Strings" again at the recording site of a program on Tianjin Satellite TV, Zhao Benshan on the side might feel it and couldn't help but take the initiative to sing on stage for a while. It was not only negligence but intention, but directly crossed the previous words: "Ask the fortune teller how old you are this year, and your birthday can be declared. You were born in the head wall of Shanhaiguan, and you are a 55-year-old dragon ... "
Zhao Benshan is the son of bad karma. His mother died of illness when he was 6 years old, and his father chose to run away from home. Zhao Benshan lost the care of his parents when he was a child. The blind man's second uncle couldn't stand it, so he had to take young Zhao Benshan from one village to another and busk everywhere. To say that you are a busker is actually to sing a song and beg for food. It was in the process of begging and busking that Zhao Benshan learned folk skills such as playing suona, playing erhu, singing ditty and duet.
When he was 17 years old, the commune at that time set up a literary propaganda team. Because he practiced acting for many years, he was chosen, and later entered the Xifeng County Quyi Troupe in Tieling City to play a duet.
During 1982, Li, then the curator of Tieling Mass Art Museum, went to the countryside to experience life and created the drama Wrestling Three Strings. During the artistic performance in Tieling, Li, then the director of the jury, was so impressed by Zhao Benshan's performance "The Blind Look at the Lights" that he decided to play the blind Li Zhi in Wrestling Three Strings by Zhao Benshan. Zhao Benshan, who was acting in the countryside at that time, was very happy after learning the news. It took only three days to learn all the lyrics. Later, Zhao Benshan's Wrestling Three Strings participated in a performance of a small play in Liaoning Province and won the Excellence Award. From then on, Zhao Benshan became an instant hit. People all know that there is a Zhao Benshan in Tieling, calling him "the first blind man in the world". 1984, Wrestling Three Strings was made into opera film and won the third prize of the first China drama Eagle. Later, Zhao Benshan said more than once: "This drama has completed my life."
After several twists and turns, Zhao Benshan finally stepped onto the stage of CCTV Spring Festival Evening on 1990, starring in the sketch "Blind Date" with Huang Xiaojuan, and won the first place in the drama art category. Since then, Zhao Benshan has become a frequent visitor to CCTV Spring Festival Gala, and has been attending the Spring Festival Gala for 22 consecutive years, and he won either the first prize or the second prize. Zhao Benshan has also become the undisputed "king of sketches". Some viewers said that without Zhao Benshan's program, the Spring Festival Gala would be like chewing wax.
With the increase of Zhao Benshan's fame, his position in the Spring Festival Gala is also improving. Zhao Benshan has a special "F 137" VIP lounge nearest to the stage of the Spring Festival Evening. His disciples watch the door personally, and other actors share rooms with others. Zhao Benshan's programs are no longer censored like other actors, and are basically over. The first important actor visited by the general director in the Spring Festival Evening every year must be Zhao Benshan.
Since Zhao Benshan boarded the Spring Festival Gala, his life has been like hanging up. He founded Benshan Media Performing Arts Company, which was widely accepted by his disciples. The ceremony of accepting disciples is grand and solemn, like worshipping mountains in the underworld, and more wonderful than acting. While performing on the stage, I also filmed a series of TV dramas such as Liu Laogen, Country Love and Ma Dashuai. 20 10 He spent 200 million yuan to buy his own private jet. The first female star on his plane was Cecilia Cheung.
Zhao Benshan's career reached the most glorious period. International superstar Zhang Ziyi took a photo with him, and Eva Huang gave Zhao Benshan a big gift on the stage in full view.
In the forbes china celebrity of 20 1 1, Zhao Benshan ranks eighth with annual income130,000. For this ranking, Zhao Benshan just smiled and said, "Can I earn this money?" "To be honest, I don't know how much money I have." Indeed, the maintenance cost of a plane in Zhao Benshan alone is as high as 5 million yuan, which does not include the salary of the crew. The fuel cost of short-distance flight is10.5 million yuan, and10.3 million yuan is not enough for the operating costs of other aircraft.
However, at 20 1 1, all kinds of gossip are flying all over Zhao Benshan. First of all, well-known experts in China called the Errenzhuan program "vulgar", and the official media also published the article "Country Love", saying that the series of "Country Love" is thin and floating, and it is difficult to show the true artistic character and aesthetic value of the country drama. It is even more rumored that Zhao Benshan is involved in the underworld, colluding with corrupt officials, gambling abroad, and hiding 20 tons of gold at home. These rumors will inevitably have a negative impact on Zhao Benshan.
This means that Zhao Benshan's programs, like others, must be reviewed by an expert group before they can be shown on the Spring Festival Evening of 20 12. Zhao Benshan prepared two sketches, one of which was supposed to be performed by his disciples, but both failed. He finally took out the work to be performed in Liaoning Spring Festival Evening and was finally photographed. There was no Zhao Benshan's program in the Spring Festival Evening of 20 12, but fortunately, the director group gave Zhao Benshan enough face to be the deputy director and director of language programs in the Spring Festival Evening. However, Zhao Benshan also lost interest in the Spring Festival Gala and withdrew from it.
20 14 Some mainstream media publicly criticized Zhao Benshan. "The old man in the northeast who gagged on the stage made a lot of money, bought a plane, married a young wife, had a beautiful daughter, received many obedient apprentices, met many leaders in Niu Niu, gained several layers of mystery, became an overbearing president and embarked on the peak of his life!" This time, Zhao Benshan couldn't laugh any more, not only because he couldn't laugh, but even because he was depressed and upset. At this point, only by retiring can he be calm and stable.
In recent years, not only has Zhao Benshan withdrawn from public view, but he has also been having an affair with his sworn disciples. On 20 12, Wang Xiaobao rear-ended a taxi and had a fight with the taxi driver. Later, things became more and more serious, and Zhao Benshan had to personally apologize for his apprentice. He Shufeng, who plays "Xie Yongqiang", deliberately broke the landing pole regardless of the community security, and threatened that "it was just a bump"? I lose money! Meng Lingyu, who plays Pi Changshan, was even caught beating his wife and mother-in-law. Later, he even abandoned his wife and children and refused to pay the living expenses.
It is reported that Zhao Benshan's favorite disciples "Northeast" Xiao Shenyang, Liu and wang xiaoli all spent the night with fans. His female disciples Zhao Dan and Guo Jing were imprisoned in April this year for producing and selling counterfeit drugs. 20 17, Jiao Ren, the most beautiful female disciple of Zhao Benshan, fell to the ground naked in a Suzhou hotel where she lived with Huayi Xiao Sheng William. Jiao Ren's agent said that her death was an accident and had nothing to do with anyone.
It is said that Zhao Benshan has a family rule that disciples must get his consent if they want to divorce. His most proud disciples, Ya Dan and Wang Jinlong, entered the wedding hall under his auspices, and ended in divorce a few years later, which gave Master a great blow.
Zhao Benshan has gone downhill, and his disciples seem to lack discipline, and the situation continues, adding endless troubles to Zhao Benshan. Zhao Benshan, who leaves the country occasionally, has gray hair and a thin figure. His daughter broke the news that her plane became a burden and she couldn't sell it if she wanted to. It is expensive to raise, and more importantly, she can't fly several times a year.
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi. Zhao Benshan certainly didn't expect such rapid changes in the future in its glorious period. However, he has his own time since then, without the noise around him in the past. In his spare time, he will play the erhu, hum a ditty with his old friends, and write the Heart Sutra with a brush. When he gets up, he will also play his beloved erhu "Deep Night".
In a blink of an eye, it has been eight years since Zhao Benshan left the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, perhaps too long. The audience began to miss the Spring Festival Gala in Zhao Benshan, making Zhao Benshan the most vocal person in the audience.
