Start telling crosstalk from Tingyunxuan

Yan Hexiang chuckled twice: "So, you have a musical instrument that you're even better at than the two I've learned!"

Yang Yunsheng was stunned; he was genuinely stunned.

Because at this moment, Yan Hexiang was about to say something that wasn't in the script.

Partnering with Yan Hexiang means always being prepared for him to say things that aren't in the script.

Most people couldn't handle it, but Yang Yunsheng was able to barely manage.

Yan Hexiang said, "Playing the zither haphazardly!"

The audience burst into laughter. Indeed, Yang Yunsheng had been playing the piano haphazardly the whole time he performed the crosstalk!

After the performance, Yang Yunsheng and Yan Hexiang thanked the audience and then left the stage.

The audience felt unsatisfied, as if the crosstalk had just begun and was about to end.

Backstage, Yan Hexiang remarked, "The audience's response to this crosstalk performance wasn't very enthusiastic. It seems you've truly run out of ideas."

Yang Yunsheng did not deny this.

When someone focuses their energy on other things, they tend to create random things to fool the audience.

But Yang Yunsheng wasn't trying to fool the audience; he just hadn't expected some of the jokes to not land.

Otherwise, the effect would be better.

But we can't blame the audience; it's because Yang Yunsheng always tries to cleverly set up the punchlines in his crosstalk performances.

Little did they know that most people nowadays, after watching the "shaking hands" routine, actually prefer the more straightforward style of crosstalk.

They don't like it at all if you set up something complicated or convoluted.

After Yang Yunsheng finished his performance, he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he discussed with Yan Hexiang about going to the Happy Comedians show.

Yan Hexiang meant that if you go there, you should perform well, and even if you can't get first place, you should at least get into the top three.

In fact, Yang Yunsheng believed that this was still very difficult.

The reason is simple: the first season of Happy Comedians included not only big names in the comedy world, but also many veterans.

For example, if you can't handle it, you should let Uncle Pan come.

A weight-loss movie, reportedly costing 3.5 million yuan, ultimately raked in two to three billion yuan at the box office!

There's also the Shen-Ma duo who appeared on the Spring Festival Gala the year before last and last year.

In short, the first edition attracted a lot of talented people.

No matter what kind of variety show it is, the first three seasons were all made with great care.

Only later, when things started to look bad, did they begin to slack off.

To put it simply, no variety show remains entertaining as it progresses.

The reason is that creativity and talent will eventually run out.

Since we've decided to aim for a ranking, let's aim for third place and strive for first.

No matter who is blocking your way, or what secrets are hidden behind them, tear them apart.

Yang Yunsheng didn't get home until around 11 o'clock.

He will have two days off. He has been in Hengdian for a long time, and most of the time he is filming at night. He sleeps for a maximum of six hours a day and a minimum of two or three hours.

So sometimes filming TV series or movies is really hard work.

But don't pity them, because they earn far too much.

Yang Yunsheng originally wanted to go to sleep, but not long after, there was a knock on the door.

Upon opening the door, one could see Feng Jingnan and Feng Xixi standing outside.

Yang Yunsheng said, "You're still awake? I was planning to come see you tomorrow!"

Feng Jingnan replied, "I heard some noise in the hallway just now, I guessed it was you coming back. Have you eaten? If not, I have some leftovers, if you don't mind." Yang Yunsheng smiled, "Of course not! Let's go!"

He then closed the door and entered Feng Jingnan's home.

After arriving at Feng Jingnan's house, Yang Yunsheng plopped down on the sofa as if he were at home.

Feng Jingnan went to heat up the food, and Feng Xixi started opening snacks and feeding them to Yang Yunsheng.

Seeing that Yang Yunsheng was still opening his mouth after she had fed him four or five times, Feng Xixi couldn't help but say, "Yang Yunsheng, you're acting like a lord!"

Yang Yunsheng replied, "Of course, I'm a Tianjin grandpa!"

Feng Xixi rolled her eyes at Yang Yunsheng, unsure of what to say for a moment.

But Yang Yunsheng already harbored a grudge against Feng Xixi, who dared to say that he acted like a lord.

Yang Yunsheng said, "By the way, what score did you get on the midterm exam? Did you make any teachers angry, hit any classmates, or have any unpleasant encounters with them at school?"

Feng Xixi said with dissatisfaction, "Yang Yunsheng, you're so annoying!"

Looking at Feng Xixi's expression, Yang Yunsheng understood. Feng Jingnan's voice came from the kitchen.

"I don't expect her to amount to anything in the future. After all, she got 12 in math, 37 in Chinese, and 53 in English. Her moral education and science scores were just barely passing."

Yang Yunsheng looked at Feng Xixi in surprise. This girl was already so outstanding in the first grade. What would she be like in the second grade?

When Feng Xixi realized that her aunt had exposed her secrets, she became breathless and started to sulk.

Yang Yunsheng suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but ask, "Wait a minute, didn't you just come back from abroad? If you're not good at math, Chinese, moral education, and science, I can understand that. But how did you manage to get 53 points in English?"

Feng Xixi glanced at Yang Yunsheng and snorted, "What do you know? I'm Chinese. It's perfectly normal for me to get 53 on my English test!"

Yang Yunsheng thought about it and realized it made a lot of sense.

But soon, he realized something was wrong.

"Wait a minute, you're Chinese, and it's normal for you to get 53 points on your English test. So how did you, a Chinese person, get 37 points on your Chinese test?"

As for getting 12 points in math, that's still first-grade math.

To be able to do that is simply genius.

Or even if someone is an idiot, they wouldn't get a perfect score of twelve!
Yang Yunsheng even thought that even if he stepped on the test paper, he wouldn't get a perfect score of 12.

Feng Xixi did not answer; she did not know how to answer.

Because she had only been back in China for a short time, although she could speak Chinese, writing it and using pinyin were extremely difficult for her.

Feng Jingnan came out of the kitchen and handed Feng Xixi's math test paper to Yang Yunsheng.

"Look at it!"

Yang Yunsheng glanced at it and saw the four-person group on their journey to the West.

However, Sun Wukong, Tang Sanzang, and Sha Wujing were together, with Zhu Bajie on the side and a plus sign in the middle.

This question has two parentheses and a plus sign.

The correct way is to write 3 in the first set of parentheses and 1 in the second set of parentheses, which adds up to 4!

But Feng Xixi didn't; she wrote 2 plus 0 equals 2!

So when the teacher sees this answer, they'll definitely give it a cross!

Yang Yunsheng asked with some confusion, "Could you explain to me why this picture, when put together, shows two people?"

Feng Xixi replied confidently, "Is this monkey a person? Is this pig a person? Only Sha Wujing looks like a person, and Tang Sanzang looks like a person too. Aren't they two people?"

Yang Yunsheng suddenly thought of the movie Jia Bin starred in, which is also known as Lost in Russia!

Makes sense!
Are pigs people?

Are monkeys human?
There were definitely only two people! (End of Chapter)
