Originally from Liaoning province, Zhao has appeared on the CCTV New Year's Gala, a widely watched performing arts program, every year from 1990 to 2011. Zhao's performance at the gala had made him a household name in China. Zhao is also known for his lead roles in the 2000 Zhang Yimou film ''Happy Times'' and the 2007 film ''Getting Home'', as well as having directed and produced three critically acclaimed television series based around rural life in his home province, ''Liu Laogen'', ''Ma Dashuai'', and ''Xiangcun Aiqing'' ("Rural Love Story"). ==Biography== Zhao was born in Lianhua Village, Kaiyuan, Liaoning province, to a peasant family. He was orphaned at the age of 6. Apprenticed to his uncle, he learned many local traditional performance arts, including ''erhu'', a traditional Chinese musical instrument, and ''er ren zhuan'', a traditional style of stand-up comedy that involves two people talking to each other on the stage which is popular in northeastern China. Jiang Kun, a nationally renowned ''xiangsheng'' artist, recommend Zhao to appear at the 1990 CCTV New Year's Gala, a TV program broadcast all over China to celebrate Chinese New Year. After his first appearance, he had appeared in each Gala show every year from 1995 to 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.china.org.cn/arts/2012-01/20/content_24452946.htm )〕 Zhao's skits focus on social issues, including wealth disparity, the urban-rural divide, family and relationships (''guanxi''), trust in society, and social changes in the era of economic reform. His works often drew inspiration from his own life in rural northeastern China. Zhao's most memorable performances have included "Yesterday, today and tomorrow" and "Fixing up the house" with Song Dandan, "''Bainian''" with Fan Wei and Gao Xiumin, a reprisal of "Yesterday, today, and tomorrow" with Song Dandan and Cui Yongyuan in 2006, and "''Don't need money''" in 2009 with Bi Fujian and Xiaoshenyang. Zhao became a household name in China since he began appearing at the Gala. His performances have generally received critical acclaim, earning the 'top-grade' prize (一等奖) for the "skits" category for thirteen years in a row between 1999 and 2011. Zhao's skit was almost always one of the most anticipated and talked-about events of the Gala. Zhao has appeared as an actor in many films, including Zhang Yimou's ''Happy Times'' (2000) where he played an aging bachelor who really wanted to get married. Zhao was also active in producing and directing several successful television series. He acted as the title character in the series ''Liu Laogen'' and ''Ma Dashuai'', as well as a secondary character in ''Xiangcun Aiqing'' (lit. "Love in the Countryside") and their sequels. Zhao was nominated for the Best Actor Award for his performance in ''Getting Home'' at the 2007 Golden Horse Awards, held in Taipei on 8 December 2007. He did not win, losing to Tony Leung for his work in ''Lust, Caution''. Zhao took part in the Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics torch relay by being a torchbearer in the Liaoning leg of the relay in Shenyang, capital of Liaoning Province. In 2009, Zhao was studying in the 4th intake CEO class at Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business. In September 2009, Zhao was in the news again following a cerebral aneurysm rupture. He was said to be in a stable condition after an operation, although close associates have mentioned that he often felt unwell in recent years when he is exhausted on the set.〔(Chinadaily.com )〕 Zhao's apprentice, Xiaoshenyang, performed in the 2009 and 2010 CCTV New Year's Galas. Zhao has not performed at the CCTV New Year's Gala since 2012, which has led to public speculation about his health and his conflict with 2012 gala director Ha Wen. 2012 was the first time since 1994 that he did not perform at the annual event. Since mid-2014, Zhao Benshan has been dogged by rumours circulating on the internet about his possibly having been implicated in the anti-corruption campaign of President Xi Jinping. Since the campaign began, Zhao's business ventures have seen a drop in profit. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zhao Benshan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
