Deyun: My Rebellious Disciple Quits, and I Save the Show and Become a Star

In 2005, Deyun was still unknown, but two ungrateful disciples were already planning to strike out on their own.

Yan Jili rushed to Sanlitun in the middle of the night to save the show. He led crosstalk into a legendary night of dazzling lights, giving everyone in the troupe dreams of commanding a million-strong army.

"My name is Yan Jili. I haven't performed crosstalk in years, so I probably know fewer routines than the guy who just chimed in."

The moment he opened his mouth, the theater erupted with laughter.

He was the grandson of a late crosstalk master, and the head of Deyun called him junior brother.

He was a crosstalk prodigy in his youth. The whole industry had been waiting for him to grow up, hoping he would lead a crosstalk revival.

But sadly, after his grandfather died, Yan Jili swore he would never perform crosstalk again.

Now, he's back.

He holds special performances for crowds of ten thousand, teams up with video platforms for The King of Hecklers Is Here, leads Deyun into show business, and takes a seat on the judges' panel of I Am the Actor as a crosstalk performer.

He is the hope of the crosstalk industry, honored as Young Yan..
