Among the overseas doctors, a couple rushed to Shangqiu City, Henan Province to visit the local people. Because the couple are ready to help others and their medical level is excellent, they are affectionately called "Dr. Rao" by the local people.

Dr Rao and his wife have been practicing medicine in Shangqiu for three years, and they have a strong affection for China.

It is hard for them to remember that 66 years later, their little grandson Dashan also came to China and forged a deep affection with China.

Dashan, formerly known as Kyle Bert roswell, 1965 was born in Ottawa, Australia on May 23rd.

When Dashan was a child, his parents often told them stories about his grandparents practicing medicine in China, which made Dashan look forward to China.

This vision made him decisively choose the Asia-Pacific Department when he chose his major in the university, and he took Modern Chinese Grammar as an elective course in his freshman year. When I was a sophomore, my major was "China Scientific Research".

Dashan's academic performance is very good. 1988 Upon graduation, he won a full scholarship, was elected as a new expert and scholar exchange in Riga, and was sent to Peking University by Australia to study China linguistics.

After arriving at Peking University, Dashan found that the Chinese he learned in Australia was too "dull" to be applied to daily life. In order to better integrate into the daily life of China people and learn Chinese better, he gave up the preferential treatment for international students in colleges and universities, stopped going to the canteen for international students, and went to the canteen for international students in China every day.

In the dining hall, he cares about learning and training China students' posture habits and daily oral English, chatting with China students, and truly integrating with China students.

According to mastering and learning Chinese, he prefers the culture and art of China and China.

His diligence was not in vain. 1989 is mainly manifested in hosting international singing competitions. Being invited as an international student means performing the sketch "Night Return" at CCTV's New Year's Day gala.

The character name of Dashan in the sketch is "Xu Qiujia", but everyone thinks this name is a bit difficult to read.

In order to find a suitable name better, when the creative staff of the sketch and Dashan were discussing in the dining hall of Peking University, they heard someone say, "Dashan, serve the food quickly."

Hearing this name, everyone was full of praise and unanimously decided to replace "Xu Qiujia" with this name. When the performance was announced, Dashan said, "Magnolia, please open the door", which attracted fans to laugh.

His outstanding performance made the name "Xu Dashan" popular all over the country overnight. Dashan changed his Chinese name from "Lu Shiwei" to "Dashan" while the iron was hot.

The performance on the first day of the Lunar New Year not only made Dashan known to fans, but also made him hear the comic dialogue sketch Breaking News by Jiang Kun and Tang Jiezhong.

He likes this comic sketch very much and keeps recording it. During the whole process of listening, he came up with the idea of learning from Jiang Kun.

Dashan didn't indulge in imagination. He took action and contacted Jiang Kun many times to express his confidence in learning and training comic sketch.

Seeing Dashan's sincere thirst for knowledge, Jiang Kun agreed to accept him as an apprentice.

At the end of 1989, 25-year-old Dashan announced that he would learn from Jiang Kun. At the ceremony, Li Jindou and Li Jun were witnesses of learning from their teachers, and Tang Jiezhong, Jiang Kun and Dashan also performed cross talk sketches on the spot.

Although Dashan worshipped Jiang Kun as his teacher, Jiang Kun, as the leading cadre of China Radio and Rap Troupe, didn't have much time to guide him. Dashan often studies and trains crosstalk sketches with his teacher Ding Guangquan.

In order to learn comic sketch better, Dashan is very careful.

Some traditional crosstalk programs are related to historical time. Dashan usually doesn't understand the metaphor, so he has been asking Ding Guangquan for advice. For example, in The Eight Acts Fan, he first grasped historical celebrities and historical allusions such as Zhao Yun, Kong Rong, Liu Chan and Sima Guang, and then understood the contents implied in the funny jokes, so as to better understand the points that moved the audience.

At that time, Dashan learned a history of China every time he learned a comic sketch.

There is no doubt that Dashan's diligence won the admiration of his master Jiang Kun and his master Ding Guangquan. They often take him to perform in various provinces of China. Judging from the performance, Dashan is known by more and more people, and it also has a lot of performance opportunities.

199 1 Dashan was invited by the film crew of the TV series The Story of the Editorial Department to play an investor named "Walter Jeff".

Also in this year, Dashan became the ambassador and administrative assistant of the Australian Embassy in China.

Even after working in the embassy, Dashan still didn't give up his acting career.

During 1998, Dashan's performing arts career reached its peak. Performing a sketch "A Stamp" with Pan Changjiang and Black Girl in CCTV Spring Festival Evening. The following year, Dashan performed the comic sketch "Happy Together" in CCTV Spring Festival Evening.

He is as popular as Degang Guo crosstalk today.

However, Dashan, whose acting career was smooth sailing, changed its route because of Feng Gong's words.

Feng Gong told him: "The lyrics of Dashan are back, and they have entered the comic dialogue circle, which is awesome. The next thing you have to do is to walk into the world in this circle. If you want to succeed again, you must jump out of this social circle. "

At that time, Dashan also wanted to write variety shows himself, but found it difficult to achieve the overall goal.

Feng Gong's words made Dashan suddenly realize that the way forward cannot be sharpened, so try another way. His decision-making is based on the outstanding achievements at the level of literary pacesetter, and he takes the route of cultural and artistic messenger.

He reduced the performance time and put a lot of energy into promoting the friendship and communication in Riga.

Gradually turned into a new cultural exchange project, he became a "bilingual program host, cultural and artistic messenger, Riga goodwill ambassador".

Undoubtedly, his diligence has won everyone's attention.

From 65438 to 0998, Dashan, as "one of the most famous foreigners in China in recent 20 years", was selected into the list of outstanding figures of New Weekly for 20 consecutive years.

In 2002, Dashan was invited to the "Who's Who in Australia".

In 2004, he was selected as the sixth "Top Ten Outstanding Young People in Beijing" and became the first foreigner to receive this honor.

At Expo 20 10, Dashan, as an Australian, always intended to give a speech on "Cultural Diversity and metal tile in Riemel", in which he described his experiences in China for more than 20 years.

In 20 12, the Canadian Prime Minister announced that Dashan was awarded the title of "Canada-China Goodwill Ambassador".

Dashan's cultural communication in Riga is undoubtedly very successful, but with the improvement of his age, he once again picked up the general goal of creating his own variety show.

After he was here, he gradually turned himself into a comedy festival of "talking about mountains", combining stand-up comedy in western countries with stand-up comedy in China.

Dashan began to learn from nightclubs and theaters and immediately responded to the audience. He also went to more than 40 colleges and universities to perform public welfare performances and actively launched the Beijing-Shanghai line talk show club team.

For Dashan, he not only created his own works in China, but also found his own feelings.

1990 Dashan was invited to perform with an American band in Liaoning Province. At that time, Gan Lin, a girl from China, was the host of the band. Before the performance, the guitarist and singer of the band quarreled, and Gan Lin didn't know how to solve it. Dashan agreed to settle their differences and left a good impression on Gan Lin.

Returning to Beijing after the performance, Dashan found that Gan Lin's home was near Peking University. They lived very close, so they often chatted and had trysts together.

The two young people soon got together and got married on June 23rd. 1993+65438.

When they got married, Dashan and Gan Lin's parents still had some scruples, fearing that their different cultural characteristics and lifestyles would endanger the feelings of husband and wife. Fortunately, Dashan and Gan Lin fell in love and soon had a son and a daughter. They eliminated their parents' scruples with practical actions.

Today, Dashan is 56 years old. He still travels between China and Australia every year and loves China. He often posts small videos and reads books on social networking platforms, and often interacts with netizens to enjoy his life fragments.

Now, although he will no longer be active on the stage of comic sketches, he has other overall goals, pursues perfection and has a very rich daily life.
