Sun Chen’s character introduction

Sun Chen is a celebrity in the Chinese cross talk circle. Sun Chen is from Yingkou. Sun Chen was born in Yingkou in 1958. He lives in Niutun, Labor Street, Zhanqian District. He went to primary school, junior high school, worked as a worker, and did cross talk all in Yingkou. It was the fertile soil of his hometown that nurtured him into a towering tree. When Sun Chen was in Yingkou, he was a worker in a light industrial equipment factory. He is born with an optimistic personality. He laughs and laughs without saying anything on weekdays. In the factory, he even coaxes his master and his apprentices, making endless jokes. His laughter was magnetic and contagious. The young people elected him as the secretary of the Youth League branch, and the old master chose him as the trade union publicity officer. Sun Chen was also a member of the generation that was delayed during the Cultural Revolution. After graduating from junior high school, he stayed in the city to work because he was an only child. But he loves to study, and he studied himself as a party and government cadre major, studied journalism at the China Journalism Correspondence College, and passed the self-study examination for higher education. Sun Chen loves to dance, write novels, poems, allegro, and draw cartoons... By chance, he talked about cross talk. In 1981, when Sun Chen was 23 years old, he accompanied a friend to the Workers' Cultural Palace in Yingkou City to apply for the cross talk competition with the folk art team. Riding on the excitement, Sun Chen also tried to take the exam, but he passed the exam and became an amateur crosstalk actor. Sun Chen is a serious person. He wants to do it well in everything he does. Although he is an amateur crosstalk actor, he has put in a lot of hard work, seriously sought advice, and practiced hard. His creation and performance levels are "excellent". "The land improves. He clearly remembers the first time he talked about cross talk. It was in Yingkou City Youth Home, in the cold winter, with snow falling all over the sky. It was Sun Chen's first time on stage. He finished the joke while his heart was beating wildly. The audience did not notice that he was nervous at all, but the laughter and encouraging applause that filled the hall made his heart sparkle. I had a thought - I can't live without this stage from now on! 1981-1991 was the stage when he was laying the foundation. In these 10 years, he suffered from the hardships of life and the fatigue of his career. The factory where Sun Chen worked was a small one. Production was often sluggish, and wages were often not paid. Then there were long holidays, and then it went bankrupt. Sun Chen has parents and children, and his life has always been tight. He often struggles hard to survive and explore the art of cross talk. He himself can't tell how far cross talk can go. What supports him is his obsession with the art of cross talk. Sun Chen loves cross talk, loves it wholeheartedly, and is intoxicated. Thinking in daylight and thinking in dreams are all cross talk. Nao Gu Gu Gu also practices cross talk every day. The profound life experience provided him with an inexhaustible source of creation. He devoted himself to writing, "practiced" without sleep and food, and paved the way to climb bit by bit with his blood and sweat.

Sun Chen’s name gradually became famous in the music world. Since 1987, his cross talk has won awards in national, provincial and municipal competitions. His cross talk "Madaha Biography" won the Encouragement Award in the First Cross Talk Selection Competition of Liaoning Province; "The Voice of the Screen" won the Outstanding Creation Award in the Second Cross Talk Exchange Competition in Liaoning Province; "Special Ward" won the "Electricity Cup" Excellence Award in ten cities across the country. Work Creation Award…. In the 1990 "Liyuan Chun Cup" Crosstalk Competition in 20 provinces and cities across the country, "Have to Scratch" won the second prize. This was the first time Sun Chen won a trophy. On the way back to the car, Sun Chen's partner fell asleep in the car, but he looked out of the car inexplicably and cried for a long time. He didn't know whether he was happy, aggrieved or excited... maybe it was because of the scenery. He couldn't explain the disappointment he felt when he had to return to the workshop to swing a sledgehammer on the stage. In short, from then on, the cross talk got deeper and deeper into his heart, causing him heartache. However, laughter and trophies cannot be eaten as food. After the performance, Sun Chen still had to find ways to make money and find food to eat. He carried forward with a heavy burden in the hard life and exploration of cross talk. 1991 was a turning point in Sun Chen’s life. The Chinese Quyi Artists Association, the Department of Mass Culture of the Ministry of Culture and other units jointly organized the National Youth Amateur Crosstalk Invitational Competition, with nearly 200 contestants participating in the competition. Sun Chen represented the Yingkou team in the competition. He was playing the role of Dou Ke, and Ping Ke was his old partner Wang Ke, a cross talk enthusiast from Yingkou City. The joke is still "Have to Scratch" written by Sun Chen. On the evening of April 2, he and Wang Ke took the stage to applause. As the audience enters the play, laughter gradually begins, and the baggage shakes continuously, making sure it is not sour or oily. If it shakes, it will shake, and if it shakes, it will ring. Waves of applause were like a bursting tide, interrupting the performance again and again. Sun Chen vividly and vividly performed a helpless old man who was teased in the formalistic "Learning from Lei Feng" activity, which aroused the laughter of the audience. Even the judges Jiang Kun, Tang Jiezhong, Xue Baokun and others in the audience also laughed. You have to lean forward and close back. Jiang Kun was so happy that he raised his hands above his head and applauded three times.

During the selection, the competition jury unanimously selected Sun Chen as the "First Prize for Funny". Because he missed the selection time for the Creation Award, he unfortunately lost this award. At this National Youth Amateur Crosstalk Grand Prix, Sun Chen met Jiang Kun, the vice chairman of the National Folk Artists Association and a famous crosstalk actor. He worshiped Jiang Kun as his teacher, studied carefully, and was deeply inspired. At the "Yuwang Cup" Crosstalk Works Grand Prix held in Yucheng, Shandong, Sun Chen's work "Strange Circle" won the first prize for the essay. However, Jiang Kun did not praise his new apprentice. Instead, he gave him a painting. The painting showed a camel moving forward with its head raised, and was inscribed with the seven characters "Carrying a heavy load for thousands of miles and working hard without complaint". Looking at this meaningful painting, Sun Chen met the teacher's deep expectations. In 1992, the Chinese Crosstalk Famous New Works Invitational Competition was held in Beijing. Sun Chen entered the competition again with his work "Not Easy" and won the second prize again. Jiang Kun not only did not praise him, but said to him seriously: "Even though your work won the award, it still needs to be revised to a higher level." After that, he gave him another painting. The picture shows a cow with its tail between its legs, and the inscription is "Never come to the time of the cow." Sun Chen was well aware of the teacher's intentions, so he buried his head and started a new journey more diligently and attentively. One after another hilarious cross talk works flow out from his writing. In 1994, Sun Chen was hired by the China Radio Rap Group and began his cooperation with Jiang Kun. He participated in the creation of the cross talk drama "Ming Chun Song". In this play, they made a bold attempt to combine the art of cross talk with drama and film for the first time. Taking the origin and development of cross talk as the main line, the whole play was divided into historical stages such as the late Qing Dynasty, the Anti-Japanese War, the early days of liberation, the Cultural Revolution, and reform and opening up. Five acts make up a complete storyline. It is different from ordinary cross talk performances. It integrates cross talk into history, and uses the incident of "Little Dumpling" pursuing Chun Gu as an introduction. It cleverly shows the social features of various eras and reproduces the charm of cross talk art. This successful reform of the crosstalk performance format has opened up a new path for the development of crosstalk. Sun Chen was also influenced by his cooperation with Jiang Kun, and his creative and performance skills improved rapidly. That year, he and Jiang Kun went to the Great Hall of the People, the highest stage in the country, and participated in the Spring Festival Gala organized by the Ministry of Public Security, performing the cross talk " I want to be a policeman." The first time he participated in the Spring Festival Gala, he achieved great success. The waves of applause and laughter were the highest reward for him. Since then, this laid-off worker from Yingkou Light Industrial Equipment Factory has participated in the Spring Festival Gala for eight consecutive years, leaving a deep impression on the audience every time. At the 1996 Spring Festival Gala, Sun Chen presented "Actually You Don't Understand My Heart" to the audience. This is a topical cross talk. In November 1995, Sun Chen received a telex from the crew of Media Central Television's Spring Festival Gala, asking him to create a cross talk to express the fans. Sun Chen doesn't understand football and doesn't watch football. He doesn't understand why the fans are so fanatical. But Sun Chen knows that Chinese fans have a fervent hope for Chinese football to qualify. Sun Chen also hopes that Chinese football can break out of Asia and go global. It was with this enthusiasm that he walked into the stadium for the first time. Seeing the roar of the mountains and the roar of the waves, Sun Chen understood that the charm of football lies in the combination of power and beauty. It is a burst of power and passion, and it is humankind's belief in pursuing higher, faster and stronger. Therefore, Sun Chen, who did not understand football, understood the hearts of fans and wrote the cross talk "Actually You Don't Understand My Heart" in one night, which was performed by Jiang Kun and Dai Zhicheng. After watching this cross talk, the national football team coach Xu Genbao shed tears with excitement. He said to Jiang Kun, "Thank you for writing such a good cross talk for football." How many years have passed, people still remember the image of "Jiang Qiuqiu" with a small trumpet hanging around his neck. This is the memory Sun Chen dedicated to making the audience laugh. In the 1998 Spring Festival Gala, there were only two crosstalk shortlisted, one by Feng Gong and Niu Qun, and the other by Sun Chen and Shi Shengjie's "My Deskmate." This cross talk is really a well-received masterpiece. It not only throws away the loud and crisp baggage, but also reveals a deep philosophy in the laughter, and sees the growth trajectory of life from the "you" at the same table. Sun Chen’s works are humorous but not vulgar, simple and unpretentious yet deeply philosophical. At the 1999 Spring Festival Awards Gala, he performed his variety show "Looking Back to Nine". This piece reproduced the history of the Chinese nation in the last century through life scenes of different eras, and praised the great changes that have taken place in the motherland and the profound flavor of life. , real historical events allow people to be inspired and educated through laughter.

This is the characteristic of Sun Chen. He is neither kitsch nor sensational. He deeply roots his creation in life and implicitly integrates a writer's sense of social responsibility into it. Sun Chen is a "big shot", but he doesn't have the "temper" of a big shot. He is neither arrogant nor impetuous, and is plain and friendly. To commemorate the 15th "6·26" International Anti-Drug Day, Sun Chen and Shi Shengjie were invited to participate in the "Let Life Be Forever" jointly organized by the Liaoning Provincial Public Security Department, Shenyang Anti-Drug Committee, Shenyang Anti-Drug Police Detachment and other departments. Spring" theme party. This is a small party, but as long as it benefits society, Sun Chen will go. They adapted and performed "Shaking Head Peony", and the joke created the image of the "younger brother" who takes drugs. The younger brother became addicted to drugs under the temptation of a dance hall girl named "Shaking Head Peony", while the "sister" was originally a white-collar worker with a car and a house, but due to emotional problems, she fell into a trap set by the bad guys with "ice". , scattered all their wealth and became a "living dead". The plot is ridiculous and pitiful, making the audience realize the dangers of drugs while laughing. By 2001, another 10 years had passed, and Sun Chen had begun to reap the fruits of his hard work. In October of this year, he was officially transferred to the art room of the China Railway Art Troupe as a screenwriter, completing his leap from a laid-off worker to a full-time screenwriter for a national art troupe. His re-employment process turned out to be so unique, and he sang happily all the way. , laughing all the way. After joining a professional group, the good creative environment inspired his creative passion. His works are often seen in major evening parties and TV screens. In 2003, CCTV held the Second CCTV National Crosstalk Grand Prix. Various professional groups submitted a total of 1,005 works, but only 18 works were selected for the finals. Sun Chen passed all the tests and reached the finals, and once again won the Excellence Award. In May 2004, CCTV's Weekend Happy Encounter program held two special performances for him. Big-name comedians such as Jiang Kun, Hou Yaowen, Hou Yaohua, Shi Shengjie, and Tang Jiezhong co-performed Sun Chen's works. This is the greatest honor for a crosstalk actor. Sun Chen is successful. His creation speed is fast and the output of his works is high. He is praised as a fast player by the cross talk circle. From 1981 to 2003, when he studied under the teacher, he created more than 200 cross talk jokes and sketches. Among them, 44 articles won awards in national, army-wide new cross talk, new work competitions, and provincial and municipal competitions. Crosstalk performances have won 25 awards at the national, military, provincial and municipal levels. Among them, nearly 100 works of cross talk, such as "Looking Back at Nine", "Have to Scratch", "Old Classmates", "Old Neighbors", and "Family Carnival", participated in the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala of the Ministry of Public Security, and the New Year Large-scale literary evenings such as the literary evening party, the Lantern Festival literary evening party, the "May Day" and "National Day" artistic evening parties, the "Golden Eagle Award" and "Feitian Award" movies, the TV literary and art awards evening and the "Heart to Heart".

Sun Chen is now a screenwriter of the China Railway Art Troupe, a well-known actor active on the stage, and a member of the Chinese Folk Artists Association. Before that, he was a director of Liaoning Provincial Folk Artists Association and vice chairman of Yingkou City Folk Artists Association. He was also a member of the Fifth Youth Federation of Yingkou City. I wonder how he will change in the future and what kind of works he can create. Everything will change tomorrow, but one thing will never change. He is a Yingkou person and is the pride of Yingkou people.
