Which city did crosstalk originate from?

The word crosstalk was formed by the further evolution and development of folk rap in North China, imitating ventriloquism and other folk art forms. It is generally believed that it was formed during Xianfeng and Tongzhi years in Qing Dynasty. A folk art form that makes the audience laugh by telling jokes or interesting questions and answers.

In the early years of the Republic of China, the image pronunciation gradually developed from a person imitating ventriloquism to stand-up crosstalk, and its name was changed to crosstalk. Later, it gradually developed into stand-up crosstalk, counterpart crosstalk and group crosstalk, and became a veritable crosstalk. After years of development, cross talk has finally become the most popular form of cross talk for the audience. In the late Qing Dynasty, crosstalk formed its own modern characteristics and style. Mainly in Beijing dialect, there are also "dialect crosstalk" in various places.
