Start telling crosstalk from Tingyunxuan

At 11 o'clock, Yang Yunsheng took away a third of the already small number of people from Tingyunxuan.

To be honest, although Tingyunxuan is also developing now.

Yang Yunsheng did not dare to endorse the development model.

A very important reason is that Yang Yunsheng felt that Cao Yunjin's operational approach was wrong.

Currently, besides himself and Yan Hexiang, even if Li Jing and He Yunwei were to single out a theater, they wouldn't be able to manage it.

As for Deyun Club, it is now adopting a model of cultivating internet celebrities and has already created several teams.

What they cultivated was a fan circle.

What is a fan circle? It means that whether your stand-up comedy is good or bad is not important.

What's important is whether you can attract fans.

Once they've captured your attention, no matter what you look like, or even if your crosstalk is a complete mess, they won't allow anyone to say a single uncomfortable thing about you.

In short, this method makes it easy to make money.

As for whether this is right or wrong, who knows!

A hundred years from now, a thousand years from now, if anyone still remembers that there was such a crosstalk group that did such a thing.

Whether they were right or wrong back then, that was the correct thing to do.

Now, you have to earn money while standing up.

If you don't earn money, you have nothing.

If you don't make money, you'll be exploited to death!

At 11:00 AM, the bus departed from the parking lot outside Tingyunxuan and headed to the film and television city.

The bus driver never expected that not only would someone charter his bus today, but someone would also treat him to a crosstalk performance for free.

Although I usually listen to crosstalk, I mainly listen to Guo Degang and Yu Zheng's crosstalk.

It's okay to change things up occasionally.

Yang Yunsheng had no idea what the bus driver was thinking; he figured as long as he didn't fall asleep while driving at night, it would be fine.

Just like in this movie, there's a very famous line that goes like this.

Irregular driving, tears of loved ones.

The first reason why it's not done properly is definitely because of drinking!

As for the second reason, it must be because I was sleepy!
Regardless of the reason, you must never drink and drive or drive while fatigued.

Just ask me, do people who drive under the influence or while fatigued even qualify as human beings?
Such a person can no longer be considered a human being.

No matter what your reason is, if you don't cherish your own life, you should at least cherish the lives of others!

Thinking of this, Yang Yunsheng immediately sat in the front and stared intently at the driver.

The driver seemed a bit excited, perhaps because he had just listened to a comedy show.

Seeing Yang Yunsheng sit down, he couldn't help but say, "I've always listened to Deyun Society's crosstalk, and I think their crosstalk is different from yours."

The others at Tingyunxuan perked up their ears. Yang Yunsheng then asked, "Are we different from Deyun Society? Tell me, in what ways are we different from Deyun Society?"

The driver replied, "I rarely listen to the other members of Deyun Society. I mainly listen to Guo Degang and Yu Qian's crosstalk. Their crosstalk doesn't give me the feeling of being hilariously out of control, but when I listen to their crosstalk, I can always inexplicably smile. As for your crosstalk, after listening to Yunxuan today, I felt that your crosstalk was quite interesting at the time, but after listening to it, I felt nothing."

Yang Yunsheng understood what the driver meant and said, "You mean that traditional things like this are worth savoring, right?"

The driver thought about it and realized that what Yang Yunsheng said made a lot of sense.

"That's about right!"

Yang Yunsheng turned around and said to the group of young crosstalk performers behind him, "Did you hear that? In the future, innovation is fine on stage, but don't create something that's neither one thing nor the other. After all, crosstalk performers haven't even mastered the basics of stability, yet they're trying to learn how to change things up. How many people will buy into that? After you go out, tell me, which audience member will be willing to buy your tickets!"

Inside the bus, the young crosstalk performers readily agreed.

Yang Yunsheng is actually young, but his crosstalk style is not young either.

At this point, Li Jing became interested.

"Yunsheng, do you think a crosstalk performer should seek change? You know, the older generation of crosstalk performers have a very high reputation, but their crosstalk has not changed. In this respect, do you think it is better for them to stick to the old ways or to create something new?"

Yang Yunsheng stated, "Whether it's traditional or innovative, a good crosstalk performance is one that can move the audience. There's another point that many people may not realize: the standard for judging a qualified crosstalk performer is their ability to sell tickets. Simply put, think about it: if you were to go out and hold a solo performance or do a commercial show now, how many people would be willing to stop and watch you, and willing to spend money on you?"

The people in the car looked at each other in bewilderment. Even Li Jing and He Yunwei couldn't say for sure that someone would be willing to spend money on them.

Actually, what Yang Yunsheng said wasn't quite right. To be precise, it's about whether today's crosstalk performers have the courage to go and perform under the Tianqiao Bridge in Beijing.

After the performance, how many people will be willing to stop and watch you?

Or, to put it another way, how much money can you get after the performance?

Under the old overpass, this is how crosstalk performers initially performed.

It's just that the current environment is better, and there's a place like this to shelter you from the wind and rain, allowing you to perform on stage.

There wasn't such a good environment before, and there were many people who took advantage of others for free.

You can't go in to listen without buying a ticket.

If you listen to it for a while and then feel you don't like it and want to get a refund, you'll have to go all the way to Iran.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Iranian women are all beautiful; the Middle East is actually extremely dangerous.

Li Jing then asked, "So what do you think is the biggest difference between Deyun Society and our Tingyunxuan right now?"

Yang Yunsheng thought for a moment before giving his answer.

"The biggest difference between Deyun Club and Tingyunxuan lies in the gap between Teacher Guo and Lao Cao. If Lao Cao can reach Teacher Guo's level, then Tingyunxuan can also be developed into Deyun Club. As for Teacher Li's question about whether it was a mistake for him to leave Deyun Club, I think everyone has different thoughts. Since he left, he should look forward."

Li Jing remained silent, but as one of the founders of Deyun Society, he had been reflecting on his actions over the years.

Was it right or wrong for me to leave Deyun Club back then?

He must be envious as Deyun Club continues to thrive!

But he can only think about these things in his mind; if he actually went back, he definitely wouldn't be able to bring himself to do it.

People often say that comedians are thick-skinned, but at a certain point, their skin might not be so thick, especially when they need to save face the most.

They definitely care about their appearance more than anyone else. (End of Chapter)
