People's Daily criticized Guo Degang by name: Crosstalk must be down-to-earth but not too vulgar. Why was Guo Degang's crosstalk criticized as vulgar?

Crosstalk is one of the traditional folk arts in my country. The content of crosstalk performances is generally very close to our lives and is deeply loved by the working people. Many years ago, everyone did not have television, and people’s pastime in Beijing and Tianjin was to listen to cross talk after dinner in the evening.

1. The spread of cross talk

Originally, this form of performance was limited to Beijing and Tianjin. Later, with the popularity of the Spring Festival Gala and television, this form of performance spread to all parts of the country. . However, at the beginning, middle-aged and elderly people liked it more. Among these societies that engage in cross talk performances, the Deyun Society founded by Guo Degang is the most influential. This society has trained many well-known cross talk actors, such as Yue Yunpeng, Meng Hetang and others.

It is also this club that makes cross talk spread to thousands of households. Now we can see that more and more young people like to listen to cross talk. This is inseparable from the publicity of Deyun Club. Deyun The society has made outstanding contributions to the development of cross talk.

2. Can vulgarity be avoided?

Yes, but it is not necessary. If you are going to perform on a TV station, you must prepare some jokes that are full of positive energy and can have a positive impact on people, but to be honest, such cross talk will be greatly reduced in the degree of funnyness. If it is a folk cross talk performance, of course the main purpose is to be funny. It is okay to be a little vulgar, as long as it makes everyone laugh. However, one thing to note is that if there are many children in the audience, a small part of the content should be deleted as appropriate.

So, crosstalk is an elegant and popular performing art. Its main function is to make people happy. If you instill too many truths into people, it will make people bored.
