Bai Kainan was born in Beijing in August. His father is an amateur singer and his mother is a dancer. He grew up in such a literary family.
Under the influence of his family, Bai Kainan likes acting and dancing since he was a child. Under the arrangement of parents, she entered the Dance Art School of China Song and Dance Troupe, and began to receive professional and formal dance training at the age of 14.
At 6: 30 every morning, the bedside alarm clock and the teacher's whistle sound, and he will get up and practice. Play football, ride horses, listen to the teacher "chanting" after practice, and get training in the rehearsal room at night.
During his school days, he had to accept the "destruction" of his teachers. Every night, after taking a shower, Bai Kainan directly fell asleep in bed, too tired to talk to her roommate.
But sometimes, not all the bitterness of eating can be rewarded accordingly. Bai Kainan's road to dancing from childhood was not smooth.
After graduating from school, Bai Kainan and some friends from school formed a group to make money by dancing, but the reality never turned out as he hoped. Later, because the list was not received, the group was quickly dissolved.
At that time, Bai Kainan was in his early twenties, and it was difficult to bow down and ask for money from home. If you want to live, you have to live. Bai Kainan decided to leave his dream dance industry.
Soon, with the help of friends, Bai Kainan found a performing arts bar. Although the salary is not high, I can barely make ends meet. He honed his dancing, hosting and on-the-spot ability step by step in this place.
Bai Kainan, whose life became more and more stable, soon got into trouble. In a performance, when Bai Kainan was singing vigorously, a drunk scolded him for what he was singing and threw a watermelon skin in his face.
Bai Kainan, a young man, wiped the meat on his face. He was angry, not angry. After all, starting work will not only cause trouble, but also bring trouble to the boss's signboard.
At this moment, however, the drunk saw that he was not angry and lost another watermelon skin. This time, Bai Kainan caught it. He quipped, "You are holding a fruit bowl!" This sentence caused everyone's laughter on the field, and it also became the turning point of his life.
After work, the boss invited him to the roadside barbecue and praised him for his quick response. Later, the boss gave the young man a raise, and for a time, Bai Kainan became the star of the performing arts bar.
Bai Kainan, who had a good time in the performing arts bar, began to feel that this place could no longer accommodate him, and he began to yearn for a bigger stage.
Later, he resigned and was admitted to the cross talk comedy class of the Central Academy of Drama.
02, the arduous road to fame
After entering the school, Bai Kainan studied under Feng Conggong. Feng Gong was already a famous crosstalk performer in China at that time, but Bai Kainan, who studied under Feng Gong, didn't expect that he was greeted by more severe training than the song and dance troupe.
On one occasion, cross talk was rehearsed for two months. Feng Gong, as the instructor, from the beginning of rehearsal to the official stage, once there is something wrong with Bai Kainan's performance, he will swear directly.
Even if an elderly Yang Shaohua was present, Feng Gong didn't save his face.
Rehearsal is so difficult, not to mention stage mistakes. While his teacher Feng Gong was performing, Bai Kainan hesitated for a few seconds. There was a "gap" in the performance, and suddenly he was "speechless".
After stepping down, Feng Gong scolded Bai Kainan for about an hour in front of a dozen students in the cross talk comedy class, and showed him no mercy.
Fortunately, Bai Kainan has stood up to Feng Gong's scolding in recent years.
20 10 On the recommendation of the teacher, two apprentices, Bai Kainan and Jia Ling, went on stage to partner, and the program "Big Talk" appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Evening and became famous overnight.
20 1 1 The White House performed open sesame in the Spring Festival Evening. In those two years, there were even rumors that Bai Kainan might take the place of Master Feng Gong in the Spring Festival Gala.
Taking advantage of the popularity of the Spring Festival Evening, Bai Kainan participated in Hunan Satellite TV's variety show Variety as a guest on 20 13. In the program, he set an example for Dick and Cowboy, Zhang Yu and other stars, which made the audience laugh.
Once the program was broadcast, Bai Kainan became the "protagonist" of the program with his sometimes mischievous and sometimes serious performances. Therefore, Bai Kainan's signboard really came out.
In the same year, Bai Kainan and Jia Ling hit it off and invited artist Zhang Wei to host the comedy variety show "The Five Heroes". This program once "laughed and washed" the whole variety show.
The program was a great success, and Bai Kainan's excellent imitation and interpretation also gained a large number of fans. Subsequently, his Shang Yan, advertisements and interviews came to your door one after another. The teenager who was once dumped with watermelon skin has now become a variety coffee.
03, "seeking stability" transformation, but eventually.
20 14 can be said to be the peak period of Bai Kainan. With the support of his master Feng Gong, he became famous at the Spring Festival Gala, holding many variety resources. He is in the rising stage of comedy industry.
As far as weather, geographical location and people are concerned, Bai Kainan has almost everything. Unfortunately, Bai Kainan broke this good card, but it may be doomed.
Bai Kainan was taught by his parents to be down-to-earth at an early age. Before leaving the performing arts bar, he thought about it for a whole year before deciding to apply for the Central Academy of Drama. He said that he was a man without any foresight, and it was enough to do what he was doing.
He just wanted to walk steadily, but he lost the initiative to pull his classmates over and form a team together.
Bai Kainan planned two roads for himself. One is to transform into an actor; The second is to continue to take the road of variety and comedy.
Bai Kainan is very confident. He has never suffered a loss in taking the road of variety show, and he doesn't feel any difficulty. At the moment, he wants to be an actor and take the road of Feng Gong. In an interview, he was very confident: "As long as a play is successful, I can be famous."
From 2065,438 to 2004, Bai Kainan made three films, My Dad is four years younger than me, Dead End and Mocha Action. However, due to the worrying quality of the films themselves, none of the three films caused much repercussions.
Everything needs tempering. Bai Kainan, who is eager for transformation and has an unstable mentality, has long forgotten the truth that "one minute on the stage takes ten years off the stage". After the failure of the transformation, he returned to the old road of variety, but unfortunately he was "revealed".
In order to earn more money, he participated in variety shows many times. Although his exposure has increased, his "burden" as a comedian is gone at all.
Bai Kainan became famous and made a lot of money as a host and guest in programs such as "The Annual Show" and "I'm going to school". But I no longer see any growth in my old comedies.
At this time, Jia Ling is constantly precipitating on the road of comedy, constantly honing in the program "Happy Comedians" which was just launched at that time, and gradually produced her own comedies. Dare to feel ashamed, high emotional intelligence, she quickly won the love of a large number of audiences.
With the decline of his program, Bai Kainan's sense of crisis is getting stronger and stronger. He just kept paying attention to the present and turned back to the familiar and unfamiliar comedy road.
In order to adapt to work and comedy programs as soon as possible, Bai Kainan was asked to create a large number of excellent works in a short time, but after leaving comedy for several years, he was undoubtedly at a loss.
Compared with Jia Ling, she has determined her own path, but Bai Kainan has never defined her own position. After several years of hesitation and short-term attitude, he has lost the opportunity to continue to develop in the comedy industry.
04, stagnation and reflection
Later, in Dating in menstruation, Bai Kainan and Zhang Wei collaborated to imitate the sketches of Song Xiaobao and Cai Ming. Although it was well received, there was not a joke in the whole process. There were only two people's voices and backstage sound effects in the audience.
In the review stage, Chang Yuan also satirized him: "You are the work of the people." The subtext is that this sketch is completely copied without improvement. Chang Yuan's words made Bai Kainan with a microphone have to reckon awkwardly.
20 16 The original sketch "Busy Gong Li" made by him and Sun Nan was copied by netizens from Zhang Zidong's sketch "Superman in Gong Li".
Afterwards, Bai Kainan also specially explained: "The original author belongs to our group. This sketch is based on the original work, and the plot is completely different. It is too much to say plagiarism. "
Although this matter soon subsided after the original author appeared, the trouble soon came to you again. 20 19 xiaoguo factory official Wei publicly claimed that Bai Kainan had copied the works of their actor Zhang Boyang on the variety odds program.
As early as before Laughter Factory issued a document, Weibo netizens had "forced" to live in Bai Kainan. Feelings and fame, even master Feng Gong, can't keep a trace of dignity for him before the real hammer of plagiarism.
Bai Kainan wrote in Weibo, "I left and expressed everything I wanted to express. This is my true feeling. " He didn't explain why he plagiarized.
Objectively speaking, Bai Kainan has never slacked off on the road of variety and comedy. Degang Guo once boasted that he worked harder than any comedian. But the effect of helpless comedy is always unsatisfactory and can't catch the audience's heart.
From the age of 14, he joined a song and dance troupe and performed a watermelon skin in a bar, and then he was angered by Feng Gong at China Theatre Academy. The struggle in Bai Kainan is not easy.
His contentment is a good thing, but it is also a fatal flaw in his career. Bai Kainan seems to be able to return to the road of hosting and variety, but in fact, every road needs tempering.
As his master Feng Gong said, "Nothing in life is easy. In order to dream, there is only one way, and I am desperate. "
