Most of the crosstalk actors who join Deyun Society as apprentices have to choose a stage name. So how do you come up with this stage name?
Dear readers, please listen carefully.
In the early years, if Deyun Society wanted to develop and grow, it had to open classes to teach apprentices. Guo Degang had this plan. After discussing with Zhang Wenshun, one of the founders of Deyun Society, Zhang Wenshun gave him an opinion. Zhang Wenshun believed that Guo Degang would have many disciples in the future, so he gave Guo Degang 8 characters "Dragon Soaring all over the world, clouds and cranes rising to the sky" to Guo Degang, hoping that Guo Degang would use these characters to name his disciples in the future, so that it would be easier to manage.
Zhang Wenshun is Guo Degang’s senior, and Guo Degang has always respected him. Guo Degang readily accepted the old senior’s good intentions. So Guo Degang followed Zhang Wenshun's suggestion and named his disciples with these eight characters, one subject every two years. After accepting eight subjects, he would no longer accept apprentices.
Then let me give you some interesting examples for everyone to take a look at.
01
Yun
——Yun is already well-known and has no competition. Three thousand guests are all sitting at the table.
The "Yunzike" of Deyun Club are the children who accompanied Guo Degang through the hard times. Most of them joined Deyun Club before it became popular. Everyone has no utilitarianism. It’s very heavy, and it’s more about wanting to learn a craft.
The most famous among them is Yue Yunpeng.
Why is it called Yue Yunpeng?
Because Guo Degang felt that Yue Yunpeng would be like a roc bird in the clouds, fluttering its wings and soaring ninety thousand miles.
I didn’t expect that he was right.
Of course, there is also Zhang Yunlei who is now famous.
Guo Degang once said that the meaning of Zhang Yunlei's name is "Thunder in the clouds is known all over the world", and it turned out to be true as he wished.
There is also a Deyun Club actor known as the "Peking Opera Prodigy" - Tao Yang, Tao Yunsheng. He not only studied cross talk, but also studied Peking Opera under Guo Degang, and is now the main actor of Qilin Opera Club.
His real name is so famous that many people don’t know that his stage name following Guo Degang is Tao Yunsheng.
What would Guo Degang want to name this child? Teacher Yu Qian spoke and said that I have an idea. This child is like a saint. Whether it is singing, acting or making movies, he is extremely smart. Tao Yunsheng.
Teacher Yu Qian said, I didn’t think there was a genius before. The first time I recognized the word was through Tao Yang. I had never seen such an intelligent child.
Boss Tao really lives up to his name.
02
Crane
——Crane is a life of ups and downs, and the results will be fruitful. After long-term experience and practice, it can only bear the brilliance.
Most of the disciples of "He Zi Ke" are "midway monks", and they are also the first batch of "outside enrollment" disciples of Deyun Club. "Half-way monks" want to achieve deeper attainments, they can only work hard and work hard, and only after a half-life of ups and downs can they finally see the clouds open and the moon shine.
One thing I have to say is that "He Zi Ke" is an older group among the overall disciples. Although it is a pity, the good thing is that the disciples who have come out of this group are also Be dazzling and not inferior to others.
The most famous person in the Crane family right now is undoubtedly Meng Hetang.
The sentence "Pan Ta" in "There's a Newcomer in Crosstalk" became popular on the Internet, and the public gradually noticed this excellent crosstalk actor who has been ups and downs for ten years.
His name seems to have a lot of meaning, but Lao Guo's original words are: "Meng Hetang worked as a lobby manager in a hotel owned by Yu Qian. It's too long to call him lobby manager, so I don't need to cut off the beginning and the end." In the middle, it’s called Meng Hetang.”
On the contrary, Zhang Helun, whose name sounds casual, actually has a profound meaning.
Guo Degang once pointed out the origin of Zhang Helun's name. He said: "As the old saying goes, the crane calls Kunlun, but he has not learned the skills before becoming a man, so the word "Lun" is added to the single person, and this is Helun."
03
Nine
——Nine means laughing and scolding, coming and going, hot blood is difficult to cool, and drinking ice is easy.
The "Jiu Zi Ke" is considered to be a group of "youth groups" with the most solid foundation in Deyun Society. Everyone is a person with real abilities. Because they were born in the "Chuanxi Society" of Deyun Society, they have good business abilities. They are all very solid, which is probably the reason why they were "taken away" by their senior fellow students at such a young age and used as admiration.
When it comes to "Nine-Zi Ke", we have to mention poor Mr. He Jiuhua.
This brother’s entry into Deyun Club can be considered a “legend”. He Jiuhua entered Deyun Club very early, and was already in Deyun Club before the “He Zi Ke” was full.
So this man had the ability to enter the "Crane Branch", but when he was "apprenticing", Guo Degang forgot about him. (There is also a saying that he was late for the banquet)
Yes, you heard it right, you just "forgot" him.
So "He Zi Ke" ended, and He Jiuhua could only enter the "Nine Zi Ke". He was different from Zhang Jiuling. Zhang Jiuling also came to Deyun Society when the "He Zi Ke" was not full. But because of his young age, Boss Guo directly threw him into the "Nine-Zi Division" door.
According to Guo Degang himself, because he had forgotten the issue of He Jiuhua’s “apprenticeship”, he planned to recruit a group of “Toujiu” when the “Jiu Zi Ke” accepted disciples, which is what we now know as “Jiu Zi Ke”. Eight top nine” warriors.
But before that, Guo Degang was thinking that there were nine people in the "Top Nine", and the person who did not enter the "Top Nine" was He Jiuhua.
The reason was the same as the last time he did not enter the "Crane Branch". Boss Guo once again "forgot" He Jiuhua, who worked in the backstage of Deyun Club and rarely talked.
Seeing his former junior brother become a senior brother, and being responsible for taking his senior brother to school, this was an indescribable "pain" in He Jiuhua's heart.
But now he and his partner Shang Jiuxi have also started their special show. I wish the two teachers better and better.
There is also Meng Hetang’s favorite Zhou Jiuliang.
It is said that the origin of his word "Liang" is because Zhou Jiuliang directly entered Deyun Club as an outstanding graduate of Deyun Chuan Xi Club. At that time, Zhou Jiuliang performed well in all aspects and was excellent in subjects, so he was named "good".
Alas, the names of this pair are given so casually, but they are easily remembered by everyone. I don’t know whether this is a blessing or a curse.
There is also a little-known actor-Mei Jiuliang.
Because he was not very good at drinking, Guo Degang gave him the name "Mei Jiuliang" with a wave of his hand - "no drinker".
Are you guys so careless in naming your Deyun Club?
This actor temporarily withdrew from Deyun Club due to personal reasons. We look forward to his early return.

Xiao
——Xiao is Xiao, a rookie who has just emerged. He has a lot to look forward to, his journey is bright, and he will pass on the mantle of his master.
"Xiao Zi Ke" can now be regarded as a rookie actor, but most of them still need to hone themselves on small stages for a while.
The most well-known among them is Qin Xiaoxian.
After the arrangement, although the senior brother of "Xiao Zi Ke" has not yet been decided, Qin Xiaoxian is already inseparable from being the senior senior brother.
The word "Xian" can tell how much Teacher Guo expects of him.
I hope he can hone his basic skills and bring "Xiao Zi Ke" to another peak. Best wishes.
(Thanks to Teacher Xuanyi for the lyrics)
Then, here comes the question
Why didn’t Guo Qilin follow the Chinese character arrangement?
