Li Jindou's character evaluation:

As soon as Li Jindou appeared, the audience immediately felt relaxed and lively. He is a versatile crosstalk artist, with a natural and unrestrained typhoon, vivid and delicate performances and infinite charm.

Li Jindou absorbed the performing arts expertise of famous crosstalk artists, combined the elegance of Beijing, the popularity of Tianjin and the roughness of Northeast China, and formed his own unique artistic style. He skillfully combines speaking, learning, teasing and singing, and at the same time inherits and develops the skills of traditional cross talk and applies them to realistic cross talk performances, making them handsome, marketable, crisp and fast.
