At a young age, Jin Deng worked as an assistant in a bookstore in Beiping and became a disciple of the renowned storytelling master Sun Heting. After Sun Heting fled to escape the repercussions of telling anti-Japanese stories, Jin Deng bravely took his family out of the border to seek his master after the victory of the war. He followed his master's last wish and married his master's daughter, Furong, and then began to venture into the world on his own. To support his family, he traveled around storytelling venues; despite having a large audience and becoming a prominent storyteller, he was still exploited by evil forces, accumulating a mountain of debt. After the liberation, artists gained a new standing, and Jin Deng took the lead in telling new stories. He spoke at Zhongnanhai for national leaders and told stories for volunteer soldiers in Korea. His fame grew, the audience expanded, and tickets for his performances became hard to obtain, earning him nicknames like "Golden Stool" and "King of Clean Streets." When the Cultural Revolution broke out, the entire Jin Deng family was sent down to the countryside, but he turned misfortune into fortune, gaining the affection and support of local farmers. During the reform and opening up, storytelling not only made it to the radio but also to television and the internet, bringing traditional art back to life, and Jin Deng regained his youthful vigor.
