Chapter 128 "Low" Comedy
"Look in the mirror??? It's not Shen Yi, what do you mean, don't you think I'm not a literati?"

Fan Ming saw that everyone was laughing together and still had an expression of dissatisfaction.

Hong Jiantao on the side patted Fan Ming on the shoulder and laughed:

"Come on, old Fan, just by listening to the opening of the first scene, I know who your character is, and it must be some bureaucratic... What is it called?"

"Oh, that's right! If I'm not mistaken, when Shen Yiyi wrote this episode, he wrote it according to Fan Ming, right?"

Shen Yi nodded affirmatively and said: "It's true that I thought so before, now seeing Brother Fan's state, I feel more suitable, it shouldn't be said to be a perfect match!"

"Indeed, as long as Fan Ming's role as the head of the punishment shop is played normally, he will definitely shine." Shang Jing also gave an affirmative answer.

Shen Yi and Shang Jing looked at each other with a smile, and there was a feeling in the comedy industry that "the high mountains and flowing water meet a bosom friend, and the colorful clouds chase the moon to know oneself.".

This kind of feeling, this kind of thing is not only a matter of experience, but also a technical problem of comedy and laughter.

Yes, although whether it is the past life or the current life of Blue Star, in the mainstream view, laughter and comedy are not high-level things, but sadness is, as I said before.

But if you really want to talk about technology, it is actually much easier to be sad than to laugh.

To make people sad, make people want to cry, and sensationalize this is a relatively simple problem, and it is relatively easy to infect people.

This is why in the sketches, the ending usually has a classic sensational ending like "Let's make dumplings together!" "I love you and I love work".

The theme of reunion on the New Year's Eve is already suitable for the public, and with the addition of some topics about the elderly living alone, and the topic of couples living apart and reuniting because of work, it is at least a little bit problematic to add some funny Internet slang and baggage.

At least at the beginning, everyone will empathize and maybe be moved for a while.

Of course, this is just a very low-level, sensational and tragic expression that takes shortcuts. High-level people are also very good and need skills.

But on the other hand, comedy, taking shortcuts is not enough, no matter whether it is a comedy sketch performance or a movie, cross talk, etc., it is all talking about blood.

Like a clown, humiliating yourself, making strange sounds, doing strange things, and having a pregnancy is bloody. Why do comedians do this, because it is easy and easy to make the audience laugh.

But they are low-level, even the audience will look down on him after watching it, that is low-level, after watching it once, they may not feel it in the future.

Of course, if it can be said to be like Zhou Xingxing or the three dogs in Yixi, who sprinkle dog blood to a high level and give birth to a nonsensical performance style, or sprinkle it coolly, many people will like it.

After all, at least he is fresh and reversed, unlike some Spring Festival Gala sketches, where the old man knows the ending will be smashed as soon as he comes out.

For example, Yi Tianqiu in "The King of Comedy", he worked very hard and wanted to play a role even if he had no lines, but a dead body could still be accepted. His shortcomings are theoretical, lack of practical experience, empty talk, and even rhetoric.

This kind of character setting, in fact, everyone can see it in their work, everyone will have a sense of substitution, down-to-earth, and everyone will naturally laugh when they do stupid things.

This is relatively close to the people, and there is another kind of comedy character who may have a relatively high status in the public impression.

For example, Tang Bohu in "Tang Bohu Spots the Autumn Fragrance", at the beginning everyone felt that he was a great person, with excellent calligraphy and painting skills, a bunch of wives, and super martial arts. At the beginning, everyone would not laugh at this kind of character design.

But it turned out that his wives were like that later, without true love, and in the end he was forced to go to Washington as a handyman to pursue Qiuxiang. The tragedy and shortcomings were brought out, and the contrast was there, and he was down-to-earth, and the conflicts of laughter came out. up.

His achievements and talent and social status make him respected by the audience, while his shortcomings and miserable life behind the scenes make the audience feel that he is more lovable and down-to-earth.

Laughing is a good thing, it relieves the tense relationship between people, and makes society harmonious and happy.

But in fact, I have to say that the root of laughter is based on people's "bad nature", which is a problem of human nature.

There are many grassroots Internet celebrities on the Internet, especially ugly, extremely poor, making strange noises, and farting. Why do many people like to watch them?Because it can generate a sense of superiority, which makes people happy and happy.

This is also why these grassroots Internet celebrities become popular, and when they have money to buy a car, house, or RV, surrounded by young wives and handsome guys, so many people will come back to scold him and talk about him.

Because although he or she is still very ugly, very poor, makes strange noises, and farts badly, but you know that he or she has become better than you, and if you stop envious of him or her, then naturally no one will be happy .

And speaking of high-end ones, such as "Wulin Biography", as long as you have watched the plot in it several times, you will find that everyone's status is actually quite high.

The owner of the shopkeeper, Tong Xiangyu, is the eldest lady of the Longmen Security Bureau, the daughter of Bai Yutang, the pilgrim saint, and Guo Furong's six-door Guo Juxia. Her ancestors have been prefects for three generations, and she is a scholar.

As a result, these people, Tong Xiangyu is stingy and long-winded, the thief is cowardly, Guo Furong is reckless and has ordinary martial arts, and the scholar is sour and rotten. Zi once said that he has a big mouth, no ambition, loves bravery and ruthlessness, and the head of the torture shop loves to fight. Official accent, touching the proprietress' hands, including other people, etc... are all similar.

In fact, everyone laughs because they have a point of reading jokes, but because he is not a simple clown or a weirdo, but an ordinary person with a little flaw, so after laughing, everyone will not underestimate or hate them.

It is this posture that is always half head lower than the audience's point of view is the most cute and lovable posture that makes the audience think they are cute.

However, they still couldn't enter the mainstream circle, just like Zhou Xingxing, the king of comedy, didn't win any awards in his last life, and even wanted to participate in a mainstream movie but was declined.

Because although they are advanced in technology, the jokes they set come from the contrast between personality and shortcomings, and they can also find some positive energy, but on the surface they are almost "simple" funny.

Low-level comedies cannot be elegant, and high-level comedies now require all kinds of "positive energy" and "educational significance"

To be honest, under such high pressure, in fact, the entire film and television industry, various comedy genres are gradually dying out, and it is actually normal for the whole to go to a comedy desert.

Being able to rely on a few amazingly talented comedy stars and masters to gradually revitalize this environment and slowly let go of part of the shackles that bind comedy, this is actually an abnormal thing.

It has to be said that it is really a great blessing for Shen Yi to be able to meet Shang Jing, a senior in this parallel world, to help him and support him so far.
