If there are books, it will be long but if there are no books, it will be short. In this way, in December, the advertisements for the CCTV Crosstalk Sketch Competition officially began to be broadcast in a loop throughout the entire period.

In 2003, there were no smartphones. Apart from Mango TV’s Happy Camp, which was quite popular, everyone’s favorite variety show was Yangma’s Lucky 52, Happy Dictionary and comedy programs that reunited on weekends.

Li Yong, the horse-faced host in a suit, and Wang Xiaoya, the intellectual young lady host, are common memories of children at that time.

After all, although Zhou Tao, the host of Happy Encounter on the Weekend, is better to watch, the first two are knowledge programs, while the latter is a comedy program, and the parents of the latter are not allowed to watch.

Until now, Chen Huanyu firmly believes that her leg control, foot control, and stockings enlightenment started from the intellectual young lady host Wang Xiaoya in Happy Dictionary who was sitting on a high chair with her legs raised and wearing high heels with her big white legs exposed.

.

So as soon as the advertisements for the Yangma Crosstalk Sketch Competition were placed on several channels, it can be said that it quickly gathered quite a lot of heat and attention.

And just when people across the country were intensely discussing whether xxx would participate in the competition? xxx’s apprentice was more powerful.

At the entrance of Yangma's Studio No. 5, many crosstalk actors who came to participate in the preliminaries had gathered.

On weekdays, there are even familiar faces on TV, but now they all look like graduates who have just graduated from college and are preparing for interviews.

Some people looked around to inquire about the details of the people around them in advance, some were wiping the sweat on their foreheads with their handkerchiefs while talking to their partners word by word, and some were standing alone in silence, saying nothing.

I don't know if he is really cold or just so confident.

Because the preliminary competition this time was recommended by various cross talk groups and masters from all over the country, the overall number of participants was relatively large.

Chen Huanyu and Chang Yuan are in the second batch. Before this, a group of crosstalk actors had already participated in the preliminary round.

There are a total of eight judges in the preliminaries. After the competition, the judges will give scores. After that, the highest score and the lowest score will be removed based on the scores, and then the average value will be calculated.

After the three batches of participating actors in the preliminary competition are completed, they will be sorted according to their scores. The top fifteen in one batch will eventually be sent to the semi-finals.

The semi-finals are three fifteen, with a total of forty-five crosstalk actors participating. Finally, three groups of fifteen crosstalk actors are selected to enter the finals.

So although there was one more game than Chen Huanyu and the others heard, in a sense, what Hou Sanwen said was not wrong.

After all, if you pass the preliminaries, you have already entered the finals. Although it is only the semi-finals, it is already a good opportunity to appear on TV.

Since the Kongzheng rap group only has crosstalk actors Chen Huanyu and Chang Yuan participating this time, it is naturally impossible for the rap group to send a car specifically for the two of them.

The two of them didn't feel embarrassed and took a taxi directly to get here. Along the way, there were many surprised and curious looks from the people receiving the goods.

But at this moment, a warm greeting suddenly came from one direction in the studio crowd: "Brother Huanyu!!! This way!!!"

When Chen Huanyu heard someone calling her name, she looked around blankly, not hearing the source of the sound. She waited until two people in the crowd broke through the crowd and walked out, then Chen Huanyu smiled in surprise:

"Hey Brother Lun! Are you also the second batch to participate in the competition? What a coincidence!!! This is your partner Li Jinxiang, Brother Li, right? I've admired you for a long time!"

The visitor is not an outsider. He is Jia Lun, one of the main crosstalk actors of his third uncle's railway art troupe in this year's cross talk sketch competition. Moreover, this person is also one of his third uncle's apprentices, Hou Sanwen.

Chen Huanyu sometimes went to the railway art troupe before, and she also had many interactions with these cross talk actors.

Jia Lun and Li Jinxiang opposite Chen Huanyu also laughed and said: "Yes, yes, I just said yes. I didn't expect that we were assigned to the same group. It is indeed fate."

"By the way, Brother Huanyu, why don't you introduce to us this little brother next to you? This is your partner, he looks really energetic!"

Chen Huanyu smiled and said: "Brother Jia Lun, brother Li Jinxiang, you two, don't take it seriously because my partner next to me is young. He is much more impressive than me."

"The crosstalk Chang family, Mr. Chang Baohua's grandson Chang Yuan, Mr. Shi Shengjie's disciple, I specially brought him here to help me!"

"Oh my goodness!!! It's really our fault that we are too blind to recognize him. It turns out he is the young master of the Chang family. I have admired him for a long time!" Jia Lun saluted in surprise.

Li Jinxiang, who was on the side, also looked around and seemed to remember something and said: "Oh, by the way, brother Chang Yuan, the kid who was doing cross talk with Mr. Chang Baohua on the Spring Festival evening in 1988, I guess it was you too, right?"

?”

Chang Yuan nodded humbly and said: "It's indeed me, but I'm only occupying the Spring Festival Gala this morning. I'm really far behind my two brothers in terms of cross talk skills."

"Huan Yu and I came here mainly to learn more and realize our shortcomings."

Jia Lun laughed and said: "Brother Chang Yuan, please be humble. I don't know much about you, but I am familiar with Chen Huanyu. He never fights an uncertain battle. He is a ghost."

"When Master heard that you were going to form a round, I thought that you are definitely not here to study. I see, your goal is at least to go to the finals, right???"

Chen Huanyu would not be as polite as Chang Yuan when he saw an acquaintance, and joked rather triumphantly:

"There's nothing wrong with that. If you can't even make it to the finals, what's the fun? My requirements are not high. Anyway, I'll be satisfied if I can win the third prize in the end. The second prize is fine too.

, I won’t pick the first prize either!”

When Jia Lun heard Chen Huanyu's words, his smile softened a little this time, and he lowered his voice in a serious voice:

"Hey brother Huanyu, if you say this before other cross talk competitions, I will definitely follow your words."

"But, I really have to remind you seriously about this competition. The crosstalk actors participating this time are not easy to mess with. You know? Just the first batch of qualifiers yesterday.

During the competition, several new stars with particularly outstanding performances have appeared.”
