What happened to Zhao Benshan?

As of November 12, 2021, Zhao Benshan is getting older and has gray hair, but he is still strong.

Teacher Zhao Benshan announced his retirement from the sketch stage in 2013. He focused more on behind-the-scenes work and spent the rest of his time enjoying life. But I haven’t seen him for a few years, and now he looks like he is in his 70s. I hope he can live a normal life. He has always been everyone’s favorite sketch actor.

Behind glory is always a lot of hardship. Teacher Zhao Benshan, who was born in a peasant family, has been able to reach this point. He does have many things to worry about, because he cherishes the hard-won success and only hopes that he can take care of his health.

Yesterday, I saw a netizen lamenting: If my uncle doesn’t go to the Spring Festival Gala, every family’s time to set off firecrackers will be messed up. This is Zhao Benshan's influence. From 1990 to 2011, Zhao Benshan attended the Spring Festival Gala for 21 consecutive years and left too many classics. Now let me tell you the names of a few Spring Festival Gala sketches.

Most of what you blurt out are Zhao Benshan's programs - "Blind Date", "Yesterday Today and Tomorrow", "Red Sorghum Model Team", "Selling Kidnappings", "Not Short of Money". How funny is Zhao Benshan? Once, a young man who had just undergone appendicitis surgery went to see Zhao Benshan perform and laughed so hard that the wound line collapsed.

I was sent to the hospital for stitches again. During the Spring Festival of 1990, the 34-year-old Zhao Benshan finally made a mark in the CCTV Spring Festival Gala with his sketch "Blind Date". His life has skyrocketed since then. After that, Zhao Benshan continued to fight in the Spring Festival Gala for 21 years. During these 21 years, his influence has grown stronger and stronger.

Once, in order to attend the Spring Festival Gala, Zhao Benshan carried 10 bottles of Moutai and wanted to give gifts to the leaders of CCTV, but he could not get in at all. Later, in order to invite Zhao Benshan to the Spring Festival Gala, the CCTV director personally invited him every year and tried his best to persuade him. The Spring Festival Gala looks beautiful, but in fact it is a huge challenge. To make billions of people laugh.
