What is the seniority spectrum of cross talk?

The character generation ranking is based on the pair "Clouds and cranes rise to the sky, dragons soar across the sea". There are two views on seniority in cross talk, one is that virtue and longevity establish benevolence and righteousness, and the other is that virtue and longevity build civilization.

The word "德" comes from the "Eight Virtues of Crosstalk". The character longevity is the ranking of Mr. Zhang Shouchen's disciples. Baozi and Wenzi are rankings that are generally recognized and used in the crosstalk community. Seven generations of crosstalk actors should be ranked with the word "ren", but most of them are ranked with the word "wen".

Historical origins of crosstalk:

The term crosstalk, derived from onomatopoeia in ancient times, originally refers to imitating others, also known as crosstalk next door. The folk rap art in North China further evolved and developed, and was formed by incorporating beatboxing and other folk art forms. It is generally believed to have been formed during the Xianfeng and Tongzhi years of the Qing Dynasty. A form of folk art that makes the audience laugh by telling jokes or funny questions and answers.

In the early years of the Republic of China, onomatopoeia gradually developed from one person's imitation of ventriloquism to a stand-up joke, and the name was subsequently changed to cross talk. Later, it gradually developed into stand-up cross talk, dialogue cross talk, group cross talk, and comprehensively became a veritable cross talk. After years of development, crosstalk has finally become the most popular form of crosstalk among audiences.

During the late Qing Dynasty, crosstalk developed its modern characteristics and style. Mainly in Beijing dialect, there are also "dialect crosstalk" in various places. During the formation of cross talk, we extensively drew on the strengths of ventriloquism, storytelling and other arts, blended solemnity with humor, used satire and jokes to express truth, goodness and beauty, and made people laugh as its artistic feature; "speaking, learning, teasing and singing" were the main artistic means.
