A few days ago it was the death anniversary of cross talk master Hou Yaowen . Guo Degang once again sent a long message to commemorate him. This action has been continued for 15 years.

There is a touching story behind the reason why Guo Degang has such a long-lasting love. He was once considered to have no talent when he was studying under a teacher. Mr. Hou Yaowen accepted him despite everyone's obstruction.

Today, such a small move by Guo Degang is still attracting everyone's attention - it shows from the side that Hou Yaowen's decision back then was correct, and it can also be seen that he is still very popular today and has a deep mass base.

However, if we go back to 19 years ago, Guo Degang was once asserted by a well-known host whose career was at its peak: he would never become popular.

This person is the "first brother in variety shows" Li Bin.

Now many years have passed, Guo Degang has become a man of the hour who "saved cross talk", but Li Bin is still ignored by everyone. What's the story behind

?

Li Bin is a representative figure of "debut is the peak". He debuted in 1999, and the first program he hosted was " Super Winner " which became popular all over the country.

It is said that this program was born under tremendous pressure, but the creative team still withstood the pressure and turned it into motivation. Less than half a year after its launch, it firmly topped the national ratings.

At that time, some people said that the emergence of this program led a new entertainment trend, and its original units such as "A Word for a Thousand Dollars" and "Super Rookie Show" were also deeply loved by the public.

At that time, "Super Winner" became the only variety show comparable to "Happy Camp". It also made fledgling hosts Li Bin, Zhou Qun become popular overnight and became famous in the hosting industry. Rise up.

Especially Li Bin, this is the first time he has hosted a program, and it has attracted a lot of attention. He is extremely lucky, and it also shows that he is indeed very eloquent and powerful.

In fact, Li Bin became a monk halfway. His original ambition was to be an excellent actor.

Li Bin is a native of Hebei. He was born in an ordinary military family in a small local county in 1965. Although he looks unattractive, he has been fond of literature and art since he was a child, and he also taught himself cross talk, guitar and other talents.

Since his father is a traditional and dignified soldier, he also has very strict requirements for Li Bin. He also hopes that he can join the army like himself when he grows up.

Li Bin, who loves literature and art, naturally could not understand his father. He was in adolescence, and therefore had many disputes with his father.

Later, the father and son had a long talk, and each understood the other's painstaking efforts. In the end, Li Bin followed his father's request and entered the military camp, but he never forgot his original intention of being an actor.

In the army, Li Bin actively participated in various literary and artistic activities, and also studied military arts through self-examination.

In 1993, Li Bin, who graduated from military art, was about to start showing off his talents in literature and art, but he suffered a fatal blow from reality.

He started out as a bit player and appeared in many movies and TV dramas, but basically had no splash.

In 1994, Li Bin entered famous programs such as CCTV's "variety show " and "quyuan miscellaneous altar ", and starred in many sketches.

Such days lasted until 1998. Li Bin once thought that it was the darkest period before he became famous - he had devoted his pursuit of an acting career to his works and roles countless times, but he did not in exchange for equal returns.

However, during this period of time, Li Bin met his beloved wife Gao Zhiwei, and the two met by accident.

According to Li Bin, he went on a blind date with a friend at the time, but Gao Zhiwei did not fall in love with his friend, but fell in love with him at first sight, and soon they naturally walked together.

It is said that when they got married, Li Bin had nothing and could only ride his only bicycle to marry Gao Zhiwei, who was from a well-off family, back home. However, although the two lived a miserable life, they were still sweet. They soon had a son.

The birth of his son put even more pressure on Li Bin's shoulders. He could only take on dramas crazily and participate in various competitions, including a host competition on Anhui Satellite TV.

It can be said that this competition changed Li Bin's life.

In 1999, with the popularity of the Mango Channel variety show "Happy Camp", major TV stations began to get ready to move, and they all looked forward to finding their own way out through revision.

Anhui TV is no exception. Under pressure, they planned "Super Winner".

However, this program is actually a "test of the waters". No one knows whether it will become popular.

Therefore, when arranging hosts, the leader finally settled on Li Bin, who won the host competition, and Zhou Qun, a female host who was already well-known.

Zhou Qun began hosting programs on Hefei People's Broadcasting Station in 1992, and was rated as the "most popular host" by the local people. Three years later, she entered the TV station and hosted "We Meet Tonight".

It is said that when Zhou Qun received the task of hosting the "Super Winner" column, he was not optimistic about this program.

But what she didn't expect was that "Super Winner" would become an instant hit. It would also be compared with Beijing Satellite TV 's "Happy Story " and Hunan Satellite TV 's "Happy Camp" which were broadcast in the same year. The media dubbed him one of the "Troika" of domestic variety shows and entertainment columns.

As a newcomer, Li Bin was not mentally prepared for the sudden popularity. However, due to lack of hosting experience, he could only work hard silently.

It is said that in order to practice hosting well, he built a small stage at home and practiced the script over and over again on the "stage" every day. The only audience sitting under the "stage" was his wife Gao Zhiwei.

Perhaps it was because the emperor paid off, or perhaps it was the right time, right place, and right people, that Li Bin easily gained the love of the public.

People think that this male host with small eyes and a smile is kind and friendly, and his hosting style is also humorous and relaxed, so Li Bin was very popular with the audience. After

became popular, Li Bin received more invitations to host. In 2000, he participated in the recording of variety shows such as "The Golden Trio" and "Fantasy" on Beijing TV, which can be said to be a surge in popularity.

After becoming the "Big Brother of Variety Shows", Li Bin began to support the younger generations. He knew that it was not easy for him to move from a bit player step by step, so he was very kind to newcomers who were talented and willing to work hard.

Among them, the person who is most grateful for Li Bin's kindness is today's "sexy goddess" Liu Yan.

At that time, Liu Yan had not yet participated in the hosting selection activities of Enlight Media. He was still a "little transparent" who had to take over the hosting work in order to treat his mother's illness.

After getting to know each other through a collaboration, Li Bin took great care of Liu Yan and even invited her to be his assistant and appear on the show to brush her face. For this, Liu Yan was very grateful and still calls her a "mentor" to this day.

However, Li Bin does not take care of every newcomer in this way. He has even been criticized for treating newcomers badly.

And this newcomer is Guo Degang, mentioned above, who has become the "top figure in the cross talk world".

Perhaps, when the audience sees Guo Degang today, they will feel that he is highly respected in the cross talk industry and has many disciples. However, 19 years ago, he once struggled to make a living and even received all kinds of looks.

Before joining "Super Winner" in 2003, Guo Degang also had a rich resume:

He began to learn storytelling when he was 6 years old, and came into contact with cross talk two years later; when he was 20 years old, he had already started to go around...

In 1998, "Hong Kong" "Guo Degang, who was not doing well, met Yu Qian. The two immediately cooperated and proposed that cross talk return to the theater, but it was not profitable at all at the time.

For the sake of his wish and livelihood, Guo Degang had no choice but to start receiving notices frantically, including "Super Winner".

Initially, the "position" Guo Degang sought at Anhui Satellite TV was as the assistant to the host Li Bin, but in fact all he needed to do was to make various gags to make the audience laugh.

Once, Guo Degang was arranged to film a surprising program: he was locked in a transparent window of the Drum Tower Mall in Hefei for 48 hours and allowed to be observed.

It was a hot summer day, and there was no fan in the window to cool off the heat. When he was hungry, he only had instant noodles to eat. Faced with such harsh conditions, Guo Degang had no choice but to perform hard for five buckets of rice.

caused an uproar as soon as the program was broadcast. Many viewers believed that "Super Winner" did not respect the guests at all and was just for popularity and popularity, with no lower limit.

, especially Li Bin, who was the "first brother" of the show at the time, was also implicated. Everyone thought that he was bullying the newcomers.

Faced with the continuous fermentation of public opinion, there are rumors in the market that Li Bin then informed the producers he knew well to stop using Guo Degang, and also said harshly: "This person will never be famous in his life!" After the

window incident , Li Bin's career took a hit, and his popularity among the public also plummeted.

In 2004, in order to transform, he hosted the talk show "Three People Malatang" together with actor Yang Kun and others, but the response was mediocre.

Later, Li Bin partnered with Zhou Qun to host variety shows such as "Super Charming Host Show", "Brother Bin and Sisters Happy Party", " My Biggest on Sunday", etc., but none of them reached the height of "Super Winner". His fame The rivers are also declining, and they are no longer as glorious as they once were.

Guo Degang officially became Hou Yaowen's disciple in 2004. He also began to hold special cross talk shows and set a record of 22 encores in his hometown of Tianjin, which made him famous.

In 2008, the smash hit "Super Winner" officially announced its suspension. At that time, some people said that this marked the end of an era for Anhui Satellite TV.

At the same time, it seemed to reflect the failure of host Li Bin's brilliant career. Two years later, he also left Anhui Satellite TV.

In order to regain the second life of his career, Li Bin also worked hard. He began to learn acting again, and also participated in film and television works such as "Yang Guang's Love Story" and "Where Were You When I Wanted to Get Married" performance, but still no splash.

In 2015, after an absence of five years, Li Bin returned to Anhui Satellite TV and hosted a creative program called " I am the big winner ".

According to the press release at the time, Li Bin revealed that after receiving the invitation to the program, he quickly adjusted the schedule and returned to his "old club." He said that he had deep feelings for the TV audiences in Anhui, and also said:

"This is the most popular program in China." There is no such thing as a good puzzle program."

and expressed confidence that "I Am the Winner" will be a "long-lasting program like "Super Winner""

But it is a pity. , his idea did not come true in the end.

In February of the following year, Li Bin gradually faded out after writing and directing the sports movie "Snooker". It was not until a few years later that he returned to the public eye, and revealed that he had not done anything because of illness.

Once, he publicly responded to the "grievance" between him and Guo Degang on a social platform, saying that he did not mean to make things difficult, but the audience seemed not to care about it anymore.

I don’t know, now that he is watching Guo Degang, who is flourishing on the screen, will he regret what he said back then?
