Speaking of the Spring Festival, which program can make you instantly feel the strong flavor of the New year and the warmth of home? Of course, it is the annual Spring Festival Gala, which has accompanied us for 40 years. This is not just an ordinary party, it is more like a star-making factory, witnessing countless people's star dreams set sail from here.
Some people, as soon as they stand on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, seem to be enchanted, become popular all over the country overnight and become household names. As a result, the trajectory of their lives has undergone earth-shaking changes, as if on the road of stars leading to the pinnacle.
But the stage of the Spring Festival Gala is also cruel. Some people, although they have briefly bloomed here, are as fleeting as epiphyllum. Their names may have been talked about by people, but they were soon replaced by new hot spots and returned to square one.
Xiao Shenyang
Speaking of Little Shenyang, does that funny image come to your mind in a long red plaid skirt and a cheap expression? Yes, that's him, the new comedy star who shot to fame in the 2009 Spring Festival Gala.
At that time, Zhao Benshan was already a leading figure in the sketch world, but he still took the fledgling little Shenyang and the girl egg to perform the classic sketch "there is no shortage of money". As a result, Xiao Shenyang stole a lot of limelight from Zhao Benshan by virtue of his unique charm.
Overnight, the name of Little Shenyang is well-known and popular all over the country. His long red plaid skirt has become a fashion trend leader, allowing countless young people to imitate each other.
As Zhao Benshan's favorite pupil, Xiao Shenyang naturally knows the cruelty of the entertainment industry. He knew that if he wanted to stay in this circle for a long time, he had to keep working hard and keep forging ahead. Therefore, he struck while the iron was hot, successively participated in various variety shows, but also starred in Wang Jiawei's film.
However, fame comes too quickly, just like a tornado, which takes people by surprise. Little Shenyang encountered the Waterloo of life before he could get ready.
First, Zhao Benshan announced his withdrawal from the sketch world, followed by Xiao Shenyang, which shifted its focus to the film and television industry. He thought that with his fame and efforts, he would be able to make a breakthrough in the film and television industry. However, reality brutally gave him a loud slap in the face.
His film "the Legend of three shots" directed by Zhang Yimou has a dismal box office and a reputation in the street. Later, "laughing" made him win the "Golden broom" award and became the laughingstock of people after dinner.
At the same time, with the continuous development of the comedy market, new comedians emerge one after another, and the advantages that Xiao Shenyang used to be proud of have become overshadowed. He gradually lost his place in this circle.
Seeing his fame getting smaller and smaller, Xiao Shenyang began to look for a new way out. He turned his attention to the director circle, hoping to regain his former glory through transformation.
However, it turns out that this road is not easy. The works he directed did not cause much response, but made people miss his former glory even more.
Wench
When it comes to Little Shenyang, who can forget the girl who fought side by side with him and made his debut in "No lack of money"? They seem to have gone from nobodies to hot new stars in the entertainment industry overnight.
But under the bright stars, the mentality of the two is completely different. Little Shenyang eagerly pursues higher and farther places, but what about the girl? Seems to be not so interested in the dazzling spotlight, quite some "get lucky, lose my life" free and easy.
After becoming popular, the girl did not choose to fight alone, but joined hands with his partner, Wang Jinlong, to face the ups and downs of the entertainment industry. Their tacit understanding grew with each passing day, and finally one day, the two decided to get married and vowed to work together for a lifetime.
But life is full of variables. Soon after marriage, the girl ushered in a new life. In order to take care of her children wholeheartedly, she resolutely chose to stay out of the entertainment industry and focus on her family.
It was undoubtedly a difficult decision, after all, she was in the prime of her career at that time. But maternal love is like a mountain, and she is willing to give up everything for the sake of her children.
However, the speed of upgrading in the entertainment industry is astonishing. By the time the girl was ready to make a comeback, her former mentor, Zhao Benshan, had retired, and her popularity was no longer what it was then.
Coupled with the subsequent spread of the "love triangle" storm, but also let her image suffered an unprecedented blow. Once at a low ebb in her career, she can only rely on live broadcasting to make a living.
The rising sun is masculine
Remember the "spring" that once made our blood boil? It is a famous song by the rising sun, and it is also their Waterloo.
Speaking of the rising sun and masculinity, who does not know that these two Beijing drifters men, because of their common dreams and voices, walked onto the "Avenue of Stars" hand in hand, and once stepped onto the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. Their magnetic voices, like the wind from the north, are cold and affectionate, blowing into thousands of households.
After they become famous, they naturally have unlimited scenery, and they can be seen everywhere in parties, variety shows, movies and TV dramas. At that time, they were like the new stars in the music world, dazzling.
However, the good times did not last long. Wang Feng, a big shot in the music world, directly withdrew the copyright because the rising sun just sang "in Spring" so popular that he withdrew the copyright directly. This is like pressing the pause button for the rising sun's masculine music career.
Some people say that the masculine fall of the rising sun is due to the loss of Wang Feng's songs. But in fact, it is more because of their own black history. Liu Gang in the group was caught running a red light and beating an old man, and his image plummeted by these scandals. Although he explained, the wave of public opinion has drowned him.
Since then, the rising sun has fallen apart. Liu Gang became an underground singer, walking around, while Wang Xu turned to a short video platform and lived a normal life. Watching them become ordinary Internet celebrities from new stars in the singing world, it is really very emotional.
Small colorful flag
In 2015, the girl who rotated on the stage like a "perpetual motion machine" attracted countless eyeballs. She was Little Bunting, the dancing prodigy who amazed the masses at the age of 15.
I remember that day, she was like a princess in a fairy tale, dressed in a white cake dress, and began her performance in the corner of the stage. That continuous rotation, as if her dialogue with the world, but also like her persistent pursuit of dance. For four hours, she shines like a bright star on the stage.
At the time, many people wondered if this was post-production, since such a long spin would be a huge challenge for anyone. But when it was confirmed that it was live broadcast, the whole country was shocked. Little bunting, the name, became a household name overnight.
Her success is not accidental, but comes from her extraordinary willpower. This kind of persistence and efforts made people full of respect for her. When everyone learned that her aunt was Yang Liping, a legendary figure in the dance world, they were full of expectations for her future.
However, fate is always full of drama. Just when people thought that Little Flag would inherit her aunt's mantle and become the next bright star in the dance world, she made an unexpected decision to enter the film and television industry.
This decision makes many people feel sorry, but more is the expectation and blessing to her. However, the reality is always cruel. Due to the lack of professional performance training, the performance of Little Caiqi in the film and television circle is not entirely satisfactory. Her acting skills were questioned and her reputation declined.
To make matters worse, all kinds of gossip and disputes flooded in, pushing her to the forefront of the wind and waves. The girl who was once known as the "spinning fairy" is now labeled as a "rebellious girl".
In the face of criticism and doubt from the outside world, Xiao Caiqi chose to fade out of the entertainment circle and live a low-key life. She seems to be looking for her own direction and trying to get rid of those negative labels.
Until 2020, the broadcast of "Actors Please get in place" brought the little colorful flag back to public view. People thought that four years of precipitation and sharpening would give her a new look, but the incident of "silk kissing" once again pushed her into the whirlpool of public opinion.
Liu Qian
In that dazzling night, the sentence "Let's witness the moment of miracles together" is like a meteor across the night sky, leaving an eternal mark. This is Liu Qian, the bright star of the domestic magic world, which brings shock to hundreds of millions of viewers on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.
At that time, Liu Qian, like a rock star in the magic world, not only made magic lovers crazy, but also made many artists become his "fans" one after another. Before the Spring Festival Gala, magic may be a mysterious world out of reach to most people, but Liu Qian, with his magical hands, brought the world to everyone's eyes.
However, just as there is an unknown bitterness behind every legend, Liu Qian's road to the Spring Festival Gala is not plain sailing. His magic, those works full of creativity and imagination, aroused people's curiosity, but also aroused countless suspicions and doubts.
Soon after his magic appeared in the Spring Festival Gala, all kinds of cracking techniques appeared on the Internet, as if everyone wanted to be the one who unveiled the mystery of magic.
Liu Qian was once pushed to the forefront of the storm. Some people call him a "liar", while others laugh at his magic tricks as "hand speed and blindfold". Even Dong Qing, who cooperated with him, was not spared and was given the hat of "being entrusted".
But the charm of magic lies in the shock and mystery of that moment. If everything is analyzed clearly, won't life lose most of its fun?
In the face of the disturbance of the outside world, Liu Qian chose to keep a low profile. He was out of the public eye, but he didn't give up his love of magic. He is still working silently behind the scenes, contributing his strength to the cause of magic. However, whether the stage of the Spring Festival Gala will open the door for him again has become an unknown.
Pan Changjiang
Once upon a time, the name Pan Changjiang was closely linked to the Spring Festival Gala, and his self-mocking sketch performances made people laugh. But now, when it comes to Pan Changjiang, people think more of the "Friends of Panga" and the controversy in the live broadcast.
In 1993, Pan Changjiang took to the stage of the Spring Festival Gala for the first time with his own sketches. With his unique comedy talent and self-mocking performance style, he quickly won the love of the audience. Since then, he has become a regular in the Spring Festival Gala, propping up half of the sky in the sketch world together with Zhao Benshan and others.
However, the good times did not last long. With the gradual fading out of the older generation of sketch actors such as Zhao Benshan, the sketch creation is also in a dilemma. Pan Changjiang also felt unprecedented pressure. In order to find a new way out, he had to turn his attention to the film and television circle.
Although he has the skills of sketch performance, Pan Changjiang's development in the film and television industry is not smooth. Most of his roles are homogenized and lack of breakthrough and innovation. This also led to the gradual decline of his fame, a far cry from the glory of the past.
At a time when Pan Changjiang's career is at a low ebb, the rise of the live broadcast industry has brought him new opportunities. He saw the great potential of the live broadcast and decided to join it. With years of acting experience and popularity accumulation, he soon gained a foothold in the live broadcasting industry.
However, the live broadcast with goods is not plain sailing. Pan Changjiang was frequently exposed in the live broadcast process of "selling fake goods" and other negative news. These disputes have seriously damaged his reputation and made people begin to question his character and morality.
Yang Guang
In the resplendent galaxy of the entertainment industry, there was once a dazzling star named "Yang Guang". He is the singer who made countless people cry with his song "You are my eye." However, just as he was shining, he accidentally personally ruined his star path. What kind of story is this?
Back in Yang Guang's childhood, he lived in a different world-a dark and silent world. From the age of one, color was an unreachable dream for him. But just as God closes a door, he opens a window. Yang Guang's hearing is unusually sensitive, and his musical talent blooms quietly in the dark.
He was not alone in his school days for the deaf. Through various entertainment activities, he found his own stage and joined the disabled art troupe.
At the age of 19, he became Beijing drifters with dreams and courage. In the talented capital, with his own efforts and persistence, he finally stood on the stage of "Avenue of Stars" in 2007.
At that moment, he seemed to be the brightest star. Excellent singing skills, inspirational stories, let him win the championship, but also ushered in the dawn of his life. The invitation of the Spring Festival Gala, the competing invitations of variety shows, and even the role of torchbearer of the 2008 Paralympic Games, all put him at the pinnacle of glory.
However, just when everyone thought he would continue to be brilliant, Yang Guang accidentally fell off the altar. He was frequently exposed to play big names, disrespect for staff, absenteeism and other negative news, so that his image plummeted. With the decrease of resources and the decline of fame, he gradually faded out of the public's view.
Today, when people mention the name Yang Guang again, perhaps few people remember the light he once had. But those who have been moved by his songs may still have a memory and regret for him in their hearts.
If he had kept his original heart and humility, what would he be like now? Unfortunately, there are no ifs in life, only results and consequences.
Yang Guang's story, like a mirror, let us see the cruelty of the entertainment industry and the impermanence of life. But in any case, we all hope that he can find his own sky and regain the light that belongs to him.
