Ma Sanli's comedy, can be described as such as traveling in the wind, narrated, the sky reveals itself, the water to the canal, from beginning to end with a pleasing sense of relaxation. As for Ma Sanli's unpredictable and surprising imagination, it is even more breathtaking. Through long-term artistic practice, Ma Sanli has developed a unique artistic style. He likes to perform in the first person, "I", both as the main character in the work and as the object of satirical mockery. Someone once commented: "He is the object of satire, sometimes pointing out his loopholes as a comic, but not openly commenting on them. He tries his best to bring the object of satire to life and leaves the commenting to the audience. The actor and the audience work well together to achieve collective lyricism." (China.org.cn)

Ma Sanli has long been a unique cultural symbol in Tianjin. The people's artist, who is both virtuous and artistic, has left behind many popular classics for the world. As a milestone figure in the world of Chinese opera, Ma Sanli has made great contributions to the development and inheritance of the art of comedy and has laid the artistic foundation of Ma's comedy, an important school of Chinese comedy. Ma Sanli dedicated his life to comedy and the audience, and Ma's comedy is known for being close to the people and their lives. During his lifetime, the master spread his laughter to thousands of households. He was a performing artist who was loved by the audience and a highly respected master of his generation.

Both for the promotion of the excellent traditional Chinese culture, but also to promote the three spirit of virtue, merit, speech, is for the audience to fulfill their dreams, but also for the Chinese comedy dream.

While there was a difference of several generations, Ma Lao was very serious at that time, and asked me long and short questions about my learning of comedy, and encouraged me enthusiastically." "In the future, I often visited Ma Lao, and his teachings influenced my life. He was an unrivaled master in his art, but was low-key and modest all his life." (Comment by Feng Gong)

"I was just a nobody at that time, but I didn't feel a little bit of the master's frame from Elder Ma." This impression was left by comedian and sketch actor Gong Hanlin's first contact with Ma.In 1990, when Gong was studying comedy under Tang Jiezhong, he organized a commemorative performance for his teacher and invited Ma to perform. Ma Sanli was nearly 80 years old at the time, but attended the whole performance with great enthusiasm from the beginning to the end, and also wrote inscriptions to help him. "Once I visited Ma Lao later, he gave me a pillow to help me sleep, saying that both of us are so thin that we need to sleep well to have the energy to create." (Gong Hanlin)

"My teacher was a man of great character, and he didn't even like it when we students invited him to dinner and gave him gifts. Sometimes when we went from Beijing to Tianjin to visit him, he said if you want to bring something, bring a box of Beijing's hemp tofu." In the eyes of his students, Mr. Ma never regarded himself as an ordinary actor, believing that the audience watching his performances was a sign of love for him, and no matter what kind of audience greeted him, he responded enthusiastically. There was no young comedian he didn't like, encouraging and spurring them on as soon as they met, and answering all questions and requests. "Teacher is an old entertainer, but he is by no means an old-fashioned old entertainer who never talks about seniority." (Commented by Chang Baohua)

"Genuine concern for the lives and joys and sorrows of the common people is the root and essence of his easy-going style." In Ma Sanli's comedy everywhere permeated with the aroma of life, it is on the basis of life, Ma Sanli's comedy is often in the plain in the strange and treacherous, in the audience unknowingly threw out the baggage, out of the unexpected but also stored in the rationale, the formation of a typical "Ma school" comedy "wilting tease "Ma Sanli has been performing since the beginning of his career. Since Ma Sanli started his career, he has performed vivid and outstanding comedy images, which have been loved by several generations of people. There is a saying in the comedy world: "Whoever does not learn Ma Sanli will not be able to speak comedy, and whoever learns Ma Sanli will not be able to speak well." What is said is that Ma Sanli's self-contained style of performance, with his personal genius factor and special experience, is difficult for future generations to reach. "But there is one thing that is worth learning and can be learned," "that is, he has given all his 100 pounds to life and comedy, so that he can always maintain his artistic youth and inexhaustible source of creativity." (Wang Jingshou comment)

In 1985, I participated in the Spring Festival Gala with Ma Lao***, before and after the performance, Mr. Ma completely obeyed the overall arrangements of the gala, repeated rehearsals, there is no additional requirements, and there is no "big" temper, especially after the performance, the other cast and crew are busy with their own work, the old man ignored, but the old man is still in a state of shock, but the old man has been in a state of shock, and he is still in the gym. The old man was ignored, but the old man did not care, just gently asked me, we can go. It was not until then that the staff reacted and said they were very sorry, but the old man did not say anything. The old man's broad-mindedness can be seen from this incident. In the world of comedy, his art, personality, and character should come first, making him relatable and honorable. (Ma Ji comment)

I was admitted to the Tianjin Opera Troupe in 1978, when Ma was the oldest in the troupe, and Zheng Jian and I were the youngest. I remember that I was quite proud of myself after a performance, and when I met Ma backstage, I said, "Mr. Ma, you should say something. Ma Lao returned a sentence "blind yell", and after that, every performance down, Ma Lao often give us guidance. Ma Lao also emphasized that you learn comedy do not learn me, according to their own conditions to create their own personal style, to be honest, some of the old man's things we really can not learn, in a word, kung fu is not home. In the past few years with Ma Lao***, Ma Lao gave us guidance on every sentence is his decades of grinding out, can tell us without reservation, the general comedian can not do. (Commented by Dai Zhicheng)

In 1978, I went to Tianjin with the Literary Troupe to perform and study, and for the first time, I enjoyed the cooperation between Ma Sanli and Wang Fengshan's "Picking Lines", and I really felt his old man's stage presence. There are so many things in Ma's old comedy, which, in addition to comedy skills, also has characters flashing in it, and there are also grey humorous things. The society is fluctuating, we spend half a year applying for a work, a party is exposed, and then discarded. On the other hand, Ma's works are the accumulation of a lifetime, and can be passed on to several generations after a thousand years of refinement. (Huang Hong comment)

He is China's longest, highest seniority, seniority, deepest attainments in the world of comedy "comedy Titan", loved and respected by all walks of life and the audience. (Tianjin north net comment)

Ma Sanli's performance, do not advocate shouting and yelling and work in the "wilting tease", although his voice as usual speech, the audience is willing to make up for him, he can also put the whole audience are gathered, which seems to be "clouds cover the moon", the aftertaste. This is like a "cloud over the moon", and the aftertaste is endless. (Reviewed by Tim Hsieh)
