Original title: comment on "Zhang Yunlei teases the earthquake": rather than "kill with a stick", it's better to use Dehua as an example
An artist's self-cultivation should abide by the bottom line of "morality is before art and morality is the foundation of art".
Zhang Yunlei's cross talk with his partner aroused public anger
Yesterday (May 12) was the 11th anniversary of the Wenchuan earthquake. There was a popular cross talk video about the earthquake disaster on the Internet. In the video, Zhang Yunlei, an actor of Deyun society, shakes his burden and says that 'the eldest sister married Tangshan, the second sister married Wenchuan, the third sister married Yushu, and my three sisters are so lucky', which causes great discomfort to netizens. In the early morning of this morning, Zhang Yunlei formally apologized on his microblog, saying that he "realized that no matter what kind of works or when, this kind of practice should not be done." in the future, he will "strive to strengthen his own construction of" art morality "and improve his self-discipline consciousness, so that" morality "is ahead of" art ".

Crosstalk is inseparable from gags, just as instrumental music is inseparable from Gong Shang Jiao Zhengyu. The new style of cross-talk can't do without digging up materials and inspiration from the times. However, making jokes on the words "Wenchuan" and "comfort" goes beyond the bottom line of the basic concept of history and human relations. The reason why Zhang Yunlei's crosstalk was "carried out" on May 12 and aroused public indignation in the public opinion field probably explains at least two problems: first, they all say that "articles are eternal things". In fact, in the era of financial media, they are also "artists forever". Artists and stars are cautious in their words and deeds and stick to the bottom line, which is not just what they should do today; Second, no matter how the times and society develop, the bottom line value consensus still has great power. The condemnation and anger of the immoral people and immoral behavior is not only the conscience of this society, but also the sonorous value orientation of this era.
From the perspective of historical materialism, literature and art, as social consciousness, always comes from and serves social existence. In this regard, art needs the romantic mood, but also needs the feelings of a clear position. Or because of this, the highly respected artists are deeply loved by the world, and the immoral artists often become "street mice". Anyone who has studied modern Chinese history or seen the documentary "22" should know the meaning of "comfort" to Chinese people. The deep vigilance to history and the common hatred for evil are the embodiment of a nation's cohesion. Whether it's comic sketches or microblog speeches, the public, not even fans, will be able to distinguish right from wrong and turn to abandon them.
Of course, public opinion should also be forgiven for young people's mistakes, especially those who know their mistakes and are able to correct them. They should not just "stick to death.". On the one hand, young people are still growing up, and it is inevitable that they will make mistakes because they are not mature or aware of the seriousness of the problem. Take Zhang Yunlei as an example. He has indeed brought a lot of joy to the audience and made achievements in promoting traditional culture. Through his cross talk, many people know Mei Cheng, Xun Shang, Zhang Huoding, Meng Guanglu and many other famous Peking opera artists. The ancient Chinese traditional form of Quyi, Beijing Xiaoqu, has been widely spread and entered the hearts of young people. For such people, instead of killing them with sticks, it is better to cultivate them with moral education. On the other hand, there is no great way to improve a person by knowing his mistakes. For a person who has made a mistake, it is no different to deprive him of the opportunity to reform by criticizing and guiding him. As long as we actively admit our mistakes and have a correct attitude, as long as we can learn from each other, we should gradually realize the old adage that "learning art first, learning morality, acting first, being a man". If not, the public can supervise and see what happens.
Entertainment disaster and historical pain point are the taboos of literary creation. As a public figure, artists should cherish their 'feathers' and' flow ', and remember that if they want to be immortal in art, they must be virtuous.
