The performance was over.
The work was done.
The live audience erupted into a tidal wave of applause. Many people were laughing and clapping at the same time. The crosstalk had ended, but they were still laughing maniacally. They were still immersed in Zhang Ye's superb scolding joke segment. With the development of the internet and the explosion of information, there was nothing the commoners had not seen before. Scolding was a common occurrence, but to be able to practice scolding to such an extent, to be able to reinvent scolding in so many different ways with such a strong sense of humor, this was the first time they had seen such a thing. It was an eye-opener for them!
"Good!"
"Hahaha!"
"Teacher Zhang, you are too ruthless!"
"Teacher Yao is awesome too. He did a great job supporting him!"
"Aiyah, I almost cried from laughing so much today!"
The live audience gave him a lot of face. The applause was thunderous. It was even more enthusiastic than when Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai had performed "I am a Scholar" yesterday!
In the first round of the preliminaries, Zhang Ye had only briefly showcased his crosstalk style. But in today's second round of the preliminaries, Zhang Ye had completely unleashed his crosstalk style. Not only did he continue with his crosstalk style that no one had ever seen before, he even continued to expand and carry it forward. It was as if he had taken this style to the pinnacle and even added in sarcasm. No, it could be said that every sentence he said was sarcasm from the beginning to the end. The audience found it extremely enjoyable after listening to it, as they cheered and roared in the recording studio!
Zhang Ye smiled, "Thank you, everyone."
Yao Jiancai also said, "Thank you."
Zhang Ye scolded to his heart's content, while Old Yao also scolded to his heart's content. The two of them were in a very good state of mind.
This collaboration was also an artistic sublimation for the two of them. In Zhang Ye's previous world, someone once said that it was even more difficult for a leading man and a supporting man to find a partner than to find a wife. Zhang Ye agreed with this statement very much. For example, for his joke segment today, only Old Yao could hold him up. If it were anyone else who partnered with him, even if Zhang Ye broke it down and told them the complete crosstalk lines from his world, they would still not be able to hold up as the supporting actor even if they recited it verbatim. This not only required a strong foundation and professionalism, it also required a tacit understanding and character compatibility. But then again, how could the crosstalk stage remain the same? It was impossible to recite the lines of the comedians and supporting actors. Slight changes in the scene, a sudden inspiration, or a slight mistake or slip of the tongue would bring about changes in the lines, making it impossible to recite them.
Therefore, Zhang Ye felt that he was very lucky. With Old Yao supporting him, he could speak freely and with ease. As a result, he was able to present one of Old Guo's most classic works, "I Will Reject the Three Vulgarities" to its fullest potential. It did not tarnish the prestige of the original work!
The applause stopped.
Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai looked towards the judging panel.
At the lonely judging panel, there was only one judge sitting there. It was the person who had previously commented that Tang Dazhang's two disciples did not have enough baggage. His hostility towards Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai was probably not that great.
That judge was also speechless. Looking at the two people who had just performed such an earth-shattering work, he really did not know how to evaluate them. "Well, you guys …"
The audience was also waiting.
In the end, that judge paused for a moment, "Let's change the contestants." In the end, he did not say much. Even if he was amazed by Zhang Ye's heaven-defying talent, he was still a part of the crosstalk world. Now that the crosstalk world and the folk art world had already labeled Zhang Ye as a "heretic", he did not say much, so he decided not to give his evaluation.
Zhang Ye smiled and walked off the stage with Old Yao.
When they turned around, the audience all stood up and gave them another round of crazy applause. It was as if they were using the applause to cheer them on!
"Go Teacher Zhang!"
"Go Teacher Yao!"
"We support you!"
"Right, the crosstalk world does not recognize you? There's still us! "
"Who said you were vulgar? Your crosstalk is the art! Without a bit of sarcasm and a down-to-earth voice, how can it be called art? "
"Haha! Let that bunch of mainstream crosstalk actors educate us! We will listen to your crosstalk from now on! "
"If being vulgar is like this, then we will love being vulgar!"
None of the judges approved of them. There were even two judges who left in anger. But at this moment, in the hearts of almost everyone in the audience, Yao Jiancai and Zhang Ye were the uncrowned kings!
… …
At the same time.
The people watching the live broadcast on the internet also blew up!
"Oh my god! Teacher Zhang Ye is on steroids today! "
"Hahahaha! Every time Zhang Ye stands on the stage, the aura he exudes is like a fucking king! In terms of sarcasm and face smacking, who in the world can beat him? "
"He's a peerless hero!"
"The scene that made me laugh the most today was when the judges were chased away by the scolding. Aiyo, every time I think of this, I get so happy that my kidneys hurt! Hahahahaha! "
"That online celebrity Alexander and the other critics were scolded badly!"
"The ones who got it the worst were Tang Dazhang and those people from the folk art world!"
"Xiani Maghu! Aiyo, how did Teacher Zhang come up with that!? It's too sarcastic! It's too wicked! Isn't this slapping the entire folk art world and crosstalk world in the face!? "
"They just meddled in the matter! Originally, Zhang Ye did not offend or offend anyone. After he was banned, he kept quiet and did not say a word, but that bunch of people found fault with him. Later on, when Zhang Ye came to crosstalk, he did not offend the folk art world or the crosstalk world. Heh, look at them. They came looking for trouble to suppress Teacher Zhang. They even called for a national boycott of Zhang Ye? They even pressured Central TV to disqualify Zhang Ye from the competition? What the hell are they! Why are they meddling!? "
"Zhang Ye is still the best!"
"Teacher Zhang has always been the best in the entertainment industry!"
"Eh, the live broadcast has been cut off!"
"Hehe, Central TV's Department 11 seems to have realized that they made a mistake!"
… …
At the same time.
In a certain Central TV control room.
Seven or eight Department 11 Leaders were here. There were even some Central TV Leaders among them. Of course, there were also the National Crosstalk and Skit Competition's program team managers and staff!
"Do you still want to work? Ah? "
"Leader, we, we really did not know!"
"You only realized it after the entire broadcast lasted for ten minutes?"
"There was a power outage and the equipment's signal was cut. We had to adjust it, but it might have been an operational error. The signal was wrong."
"It was yesterday! It's still today? "
"It's a little strange, we also …"
Inside, they could hear the Central TV Leader angrily reprimanding the group of staff. He even scolded the Department 11's Leaders!
The first time was a mistake!
This was already the second time! And it was still a mistake?
Two consecutive days of making such a big mistake? And it was all because of Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai, two notorious celebrities who had been banned by the higher-ups? What was the meaning of this! What was this!? The Deputy Chief of the overseeing unit had just been transferred, and a leader from the Central Publicity Department was about to take over. This was the appointment and rearrangement of one of the big bosses in charge of the entertainment industry. A Deputy Chief was even more powerful than the head of Central TV, who was a member of the SARFT. Under such a huge commotion, Central TV actually dared to go against the wind and commit such a crime? They even dared to broadcast the programs of banned artists? And it was even a live broadcast? Wasn't this just going against them!?
That SARFT Deputy Chief was about to take over. A new official was bound to do something. Weren't they clearly shouting "burn us, burn us"!?
The station was enraged and scolded this bunch of people badly!
Finally, the Leader said, "We will never allow such a thing to happen again". He turned around and went back to his office. He immediately made phone calls and tried to communicate with the overseeing unit. He tried to explain that it was really an operational error and that it was not intentional.
Anyway, the matter was very big and messy!
Zhang Ye alone, a small artist, had managed to cause such a mess in several powerful departments. The waters were getting muddier and muddier because of Zhang Ye!
In the control room.
Those who were left behind could not help but have the urge to curse out loud!
"This hooligan!"
"What the hell is he trying to do?"
"He's a god of plague!"
"I've never seen such a jinx before!"
"If we knew this would happen, even if we had to bear the brunt of criticism and controversy, we would never have accepted Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai's registration!"
… …
Outside.
After Zhang Ye and Yao Jiancai came out of the recording studio, they were still oblivious. The two of them were chatting and laughing as they walked out. They were discussing the details and flaws of the performance from before. They were summarizing their experiences so that they could speak better in the upcoming competition. Just as they were talking, Yao Jiancai remembered that his cellphone was switched off. The competition for the day had ended, so he switched it on. The moment he switched it on, he received a call from home. He had received the news!
Yao Jiancai cursed, "Bro!"
Zhang Ye was also switching on his cellphone. He turned around, "Ah?"
"It's a live broadcast again! Central TV has made a mistake again! This time, it's not a live broadcast on the competition's official website, but on Department 11's official website! There are more people watching! The platform is bigger! " Yao Jiancai was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Even he felt that Central TV's Department 11 had stepped on dog shit this year? Why were they so unlucky!?
They had made two consecutive mistakes in a live broadcast. Even if you used your ass to think, you would know that there would definitely be trouble. And this was too face smacking! The higher-ups had ordered them to be banned, but they acted as if nothing had happened. They still showed their faces in the live broadcast, as if they were not affected by the ban at all. Not only was it not affected, they even became more courageous the more they were banned, the more popular they became! This was no longer face smacking, it was a living slap in the face! It was not over after being slapped once. This was the second time!
However, Zhang Ye was not surprised. He gave an "oh" and pretended to be surprised on the surface. In his heart, it was within reason. Six days of lowering the game's difficulty by five times was not a joke. In these six days, Zhang Ye was invincible! He felt that no one could stop him!
Di di. His cellphone rang.
A text message flew over.
Look, I've won again. It looks like I don't need to top up this month's phone bill!
