9. Shen Teng
Shen Teng is definitely the most popular comedian in recent years. From "Charlotte Troubles" to "The Richest Man in Xihong City". His name has almost become a box office guarantee. This is an indisputable fact, including of course the newly released "Walking on the Moon". However, Shen Teng is just a comedian, specializing in his art.
From variety shows, Spring Festival Gala sketches, to the Happy Twist movie series, Shen Teng is the purest comedian among the three. He has been working hard in the field of comedy and has his own team. At the same time, he is also providing soil for new comedy talents. Therefore, Shen Teng is currently the leader in domestic comedy movies. But compared to other comedy masters, Shen Teng still needs to experience some more years of precipitation.
8. Guo Degang
Guo Degang and his Deyun Society can be regarded as the leader in the current field of cross talk. Throughout the century-old history of cross talk, Guo Degang can never be called the person who brought cross talk to its peak. But for now, Guo Degang's contribution to cross talk is unparalleled.
Guo Degang brought back the declining cross talk and was a figure who turned the tide. Guo Degang himself once said: "The cross talk industry has no country anymore, and Deyun Society is just a lonely boat on the sea." From "cross talk actor" to "cross talk star", some people may criticize Guo Degang and Deyun Society for lowering cross talk. connotation. But if the cross talk industry is gone, how can we talk about its connotation? What's more, the essence of cross talk is not to make people laugh and entertain the public. In this regard, Guo Degang's contribution to cross talk cannot be said to be unprecedented, but it is also unprecedented.
7. Huang Baiming
Some young friends may not be familiar with Huang Baiming’s name. But this does not affect the fact that this man is the epitome of an era in Hong Kong comedy movies. The "Happy Events at Home" series and the "Happy Ghost" series are his very representative works. Huang Baiming started from scratch and established New Art City Pictures with several friends. Prior to this, the Hong Kong film market was almost dominated by Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest. But Xinyi City forcefully snatched a piece of meat from the mouths of the two big brothers.
Unfortunately, Hong Kong comedy movies gradually declined, and Wong Pak Ming rarely created works that made people laugh.
6. Zhao Benshan
Zhao Benshan’s status in the field of sketches is really nothing to say. Starting from the grassroots, counterattacking to create "Benshan Media", Zhao Benshan's life can really be called "inspirational." When Guo Degang was still working hard at the top of his cross talk mountain, Zhao Benshan was already at the pinnacle of sketches and was arrogant. It can be said that half of the sketch comedy companies that are popping up everywhere are related to Zhao Benshan.
5. Fan Wei
Fan Wei should be considered unique among these master comedians. Everyone else is either starting a sect or making waves, but Fan Wei carries it out as a small figure and can still be on the list strongly. This is the amazing thing about him. Because the "golden green leaf" in the comedy world is none other than Fan Wei.
With his outstanding acting skills, Fan Wei has won no less than ten Best Actor titles in recent years. He himself has also completed the transformation from a minor supporting role to a national first-class actor. In comparison, Fan Wei still shines brightly and becomes more courageous as he fights, while Zhao Benshan is stuck in the quagmire of "rebellion and alienation". To be fair, Fan Wei should really be ranked before Zhao Benshan.
4. Xu Guanwen
5. Some people say that the Hong Kong film industry in the 1970s belonged to the era of Xu Guanwen and Bruce Lee. This sentence is really not false at all. At that time, Bruce Lee was famous for his excellent martial arts films and ushered in his glorious era. At the same time, Xu Guanwen set off a wave of market comedy. And this wave of comedy even overshadowed the previous martial arts films led by Bruce Lee.
3. Ge You
4. In addition to sketches, cross talk, and movies. There is another towering mountain in the comedy world - sitcoms. When it comes to sitcoms, you have to mention "The Story of the Editorial Department", and you can't avoid mentioning Ge You. As China's top sitcom, "Story in the Editorial Office" is still difficult to surpass by other works. Ge You has worked hard and made achievements in the comedy world, and he can squeeze into the top three with his hard power.
2. Chen Peisi
Counting forward Feng Xiaogang’s Feng-style comedy, it is Chen Peisi’s turn. Before Feng Xiaogang, Chen Peisi and his sons were the well-deserved peak of national comedy movies.
A skit "Eating Noodles" has taken root on the Spring Festival Gala stage ever since. After that, Chen Peisi created hilarious works such as "Mutton Skewers", which earned him the nickname "King of Sketch". Chen Peisi is not only the "light of comedy", he is also a respectable and courageous warrior.
1. Stephen Chow
The person who can overshadow Chen Peisi is naturally the well-deserved king of comedy - Stephen Chow. In the 1990s, Stephen Chow successfully took over the banner of "King of Comedy" from Xu Guanwen and created Zhou's unique "nonsensical comedy". At the beginning, the audience really couldn't understand Stephen Chow's "nonsense". The script of "Westward Journey" was criticized by countless directors as "extremely bad".
Hui Guanwen created an era of comedy, and then Stephen Chow pushed Hong Kong comedy to its peak. The average Douban score of his works is above 7. The director of "Kung Fu Panda" is a fan of his. Among the rankings of comedy masters recognized abroad, he is the only one from China on the list. There are many comedy masters who make people laugh, but he is the only one who can make people cry and laugh at the same time. "One actor a year, Stephen Chow for a hundred years", the king of comedy is none other than him.
