Become a champion

  In the opening performance of the seventh season of "Happy Comedian", Yue Yunpeng laughed and said that he had won such a trophy since he was a child.

  In 2016, he and Sun Yue participated in the second season of comedian competition, after rounds of PK, and finally won the championship.

  But to recall the experience of the year, he would describe it as a "nightmare."

  At that time, Yue Yunpeng had been on the Spring Festival Gala twice, and the overall champion of the previous season was Shen Teng; on the stage, the host was Master Guo Degang, and Xiao Shenyang of Liaoning Folk Art Troupe, Wang Ning and Ai of Happy Twist Lun...

  He confessed to the master that if he had to go, if he was not strong enough, he would be eliminated for two periods, and the popularity he accumulated would be greatly lost, but the master did not agree.

  Participating in the show once caused Yue Yunpeng to break down. For three months, he spent most of his time doing creation in a small room. "I can't sleep in a house, and I call Teacher Sun every day. Mr. Sun basically comes every day. My mother cooks for us every day, and the pressure is really great.”

  Every episode of the show has to write a new paragraph, until the 7th and 8th episodes, "I am not afraid that everyone will criticize me. I can’t hold it anymore. I took out my previous work "Mysterious Man" and invited it later. Teacher Gao and Teacher Yu performed a few cross talks, and those are basically brand new."

  As the program aired, Yue Yunpeng's popularity began to rise.

  Came to Beijing from rural Henan at the age of 14, worked as a security guard and waiter, met Guo Degang at a noodle restaurant, and then started doing chores and practicing cross talk in a small theater... Since Yue Long just became Yue Yunpeng, during that time, his famous experience was repeated by everyone. Talk.

  In 2005, Yue Yunpeng took the stage for the first time and talked about a 15-minute work, but he only persisted for 3 minutes before stepping down, and there was no chance to perform for most of the next half year.

Many people suggested that Guo Degang persuade him to leave. Guo Degang said that he would let him sweep the whole life and would not let him go.

  Yue Yunpeng remembered that after winning the championship, he took the trophy and went to his master. "At that time, I whispered and said:'This belongs to you, because without your cultivation and training, we cannot get this trophy. This trophy belongs to Deyun Club, I’m in the office of Deyun Club.’ My master said, “You take it, it’s not necessary. This thing belongs to you, it’s yours.”

  On the way back, he wrapped the trophy with his clothes for fear of bumping it. Later, he put it in a very eye-catching place at home. For a while, he put the trophy away, but now he took it out again.

  The senior brothers visited his house, and once they entered the study, everyone would always stay for a while before the championship trophy.

"It has a very important meaning. I don’t want to show off. I told them that it’s really hard to get this thing. We have to fight for it. I don’t know if it counts as Versailles, because that period of time is indeed I tried very hard."

Before the age of 40, consider the "actor"

  After becoming a champion, in addition to the cross talk theater, Yue Yunpeng also began to be active in major variety shows and movies.

  However, in past movies, he mostly appeared in comic images, accompanied by slightly embarrassing funny stalks and plots, except for the clip of chasing a taxi and shouting "Swallow" in "Passing by Your World", The impression left on the audience is not deep.

  He once said in an interview that he has no confidence in film performance.

  However, in the "Send You A Little Red Flower" screened on New Year's Eve, Wu Xiaomei, a family member of a cancer patient played by Yue Yunpeng, made many audiences shine.

  Before, his friend Director Han Yan called him and said that he wanted him to play a role, and he quickly agreed.

"He said you didn't ask about the role? I said I believe you." Han Yan told him, "When I wrote this role, I was full of you. I hope you can act the way I want."

Yue Yunpeng said, "Just adjust and I will listen to you".

  After the movie was released, some people said that for the first time, I felt that Xiao Yueyue could act without the concept of comedy.

Yue Yunpeng said that he has not dared to read the comments of the audience.

  Sometimes, he would watch an actor-like show and imagine what he would be like if he were on stage while watching.

"Actors definitely want to create roles, and they definitely want everyone to remember every role you play. I think this dream can't be extinguished, let it burn."

  But for acting, he himself doesn't have much planning. At the age of 36 this year, he joked that he wanted to consider whether to move in the direction of the "actor" before he was forty.

Miss the laughter of the audience

  Some time ago, Yue Yunpeng made his New Year's wish. In addition to the ridicule of losing 20 pounds by his partner, Sun Yue, he also expected to have a hilarious special and write new stories.

  In the special year of 2020, offline theaters are temporarily closed due to the epidemic, and cross talk performances cannot be carried out smoothly.

  On May 20 last year, Yue Yunpeng posted a Weibo to thank his partner Sun Yue.

“I’ve never thought about it like this.” In the past, he went to perform in other places. As soon as he checked into the hotel, he went to talk to Sun Yue, “Mr. Sun pours a cup of tea and gives me a cup, so we started to talk about business the next day. Talking unscrupulously, very happy, sometimes I will tease him, don't think that our two middle-aged men are greasy or something, I really miss it."

  "The key is to think about the laughter of the audience on that stage, how exciting and inspiring the audience's applause is."

  In the seventh season of "Happy Comedians", they brought their first comedy show in 2021. Yue Yunpeng lamented that the two have been partners for twelve years.

  In the show, crosstalk actors such as Sun Yue, Cao Heyang, Guan Jiuhai, and Shang Xiaoju acted as assistants and performed with "Happy People". As a teacher, Yue Yunpeng gave suggestions one by one and talked about past performance experiences to relieve the tension of the players.

  "To be honest, my basic skills in our unit can't be considered good. I just got here by luck." Looking back on these years, Yue Yunpeng said, "Now think about it all is luck. Step by step is a coincidence, a coincidence."

  For the newcomers who want to learn comedy in the show, what he wants to say is that there is no other way, just work hard, don't worry, just perform the works bit by bit.

"Because you worked hard, you won't regret it when you didn't get anything. Work hard, then just let the flow go."

  Like many comedians, Yue Yunpeng also has creative pressure.

"Sometimes it’s really difficult to have a burden in our mind. There are many experts on the Internet, and he can write a lot of funny burdens. What should we do if we don’t want to copy? We can only study a little bit by ourselves and write. Fortunately we have With so many years of stage experience and knowing which techniques can be used in it, I have no other ideas yet, so I will write it down."

  Up to now, he still pulls out the entries in the past from time to time, not to pick faults, but to find confidence.

Sometimes when creating difficulties, he will look at the state of the audience at that time:

  For example, in "A Letter from Home", he sang: "Dear Mom and Dad, how are you?" The audience booed: "Okay." Another sing: "Now I am very busy at work" and the audience replied: "Busy." , He continued to sing seriously, the audience stopped receiving words, he sang and cried on stage, and some people also cried off stage.

  "I just give myself confidence. When I wrote this paragraph, I was out of my mind, and the audience can definitely feel it. So I will always look back at those experiences and wonder why I had so much confidence at the time and I was looking for that kind of confidence. ."(Finish)
