Wang Ning, the former famous anchor of CCTV's "News Network", is definitely one of the most familiar faces of the audience in front of the TV.
He has a standard Chinese character face, a steady and beautiful voice, and has hosted "News Network" for nearly 28 years and has accompanied many viewers to spend dinner time.
What few people know is that Liu Chunyan, Wang Ning's wife, is also a well-known CCTV host.
Perhaps everyone is more familiar with her stage name "Scarab" than her real name Liu Chunyan.
Programs such as "Big Windmill" and "Tangram" hosted by Scarab were once one of the favorite children's programs for many children.
How did the rigorous and steady style of the host of "News Network" blend with the style of the "big windmill squeaking and dripping" of the host of the children's program?
How did two people with very different personalities meet, blind date, and love each other?This couple, both of them are CCTV hosts, are they living happily?
Wang Ning was born in 1964 in an ordinary family in Qingdao, Shandong.
When he was young, his father was a well-known beautiful man, and he even successfully entered the Qingdao Art Troupe, but eventually gave up pursuing an artistic career due to the opposition of his family.
Perhaps because of inheriting his father's excellent appearance genes, Xiao Wang Ning has shown a pleasing appearance since he was a child, and is deeply loved by girls.
However, due to his shy personality, he blushes even when talking to girls.
Under the silent influence of his father, the young Wang Ning only showed a strong interest in ** and poetry, which was different from the naughtiness of boys of the same age.
Wang Ning's introverted personality became more taciturn because of this, and even his family did not expect that he would later become an announcer for CCTV.
At the age of eighteen, Wang Ning graduated from high school, he loved playing the flute and dreamed of becoming a singer.
When Wang Ning applied for Shandong ** College, a professor promised him that as long as his cultural class grades were qualified, he could come to Shanyin to study next year, because he happened to meet the age requirements at that time.
However, during the same period, Qingdao TV made a historic open recruitment of announcers to the public.
With a tentative mentality, Wang Ning decided to sign up, and among the more than 2,000 candidates, only he and Jiang Tao were selected.
Jiang Tao finally decided to become a singer, and in the following days, he also won the first prize in the National Popular Singer Competition.
In this recruitment, Wang Ning not only successfully obtained the broadcasting job opportunity of Qingdao TV station, but also got to know Mr. Li Gang, a mentor who has benefited for life.
In addition to being a teacher in the Broadcasting Department of Beijing Broadcasting Institute, Mr. Li Gang also served as the chief examiner for recruitment.
After seeing Wang Ning's outstanding performance on the spot, he praised his talent and strongly recommended him to apply for the broadcasting department of Beijing Broadcasting Institute.
Teacher Li Gang's vision has been proved to be correct, and Wang Ning's ability cannot be underestimated.
After only one year of working in Qingdao TV Station, he was successfully admitted to Beijing Broadcasting Academy.
Wang Ning has a progressive mentality, so he chose to continue his studies, although he can choose to work steadily in a TV station or develop into the art hall of an announcer.
Qingdao TV was very generous, promising to provide Wang Ning with the opportunity to go to school with pay, as long as he returned to work after completing his studies.
Wang Ning's long-distance relationship after that didn't expect it to become more difficult because of this incident.
Wang Ning has been growing up since he was a child, and because of his outstanding appearance, it can be said that he has always had peach blossom luck.
During Wang Ning's study in Beiguang, as a charming handsome guy in the school, he was secretly loved by many girls.
One of his classmates was Wang Ning, the roommate of Liu Chunyan, who later became his wife.
She asked the lively and cheerful Liu Chunyan to express her feelings to Wang Ning on her behalf.
Liu Chunyan grew up in the army headquarters, and has shown a very outgoing personality since she was a child, liking to be lively and busy.
The teacher once gave her a nickname "Chila Yan'er", which best summed up her love of talking and laughing, and her characteristics of being very righteous.
When she was 9 years old, Liu Chunyan was selected by the CCTV performance team to become the host of the Galaxy Art Troupe because of her clear voice and sweet smile.
When she was studying in Beiguang, she had already become famous for starring in the children's drama "Sail".
In addition to taking classes, Liu Chunyan will also take on some part-time jobs in dubbing. For example, an episode of dubbing can earn 40 yuan, and a TV series has more than 50 episodes, so it is 2,000 yuan.
At that time, the salary of ordinary people was only 100 yuan per month.
Therefore, Liu Chunyan is loved and respected by her friends around her for her good character and outstanding ability. It was for this reason that the roommate chose her to help him confess.
Liu Chunyan did not delay in the mud, directly met with Wang Ning and explained to him the intention of the commission, which was the action she took after receiving the request of her roommate.
Wang Ning didn't have feelings for that girl that went beyond the friendship of classmates, so he made an excuse and said that he already had a girlfriend in Qingdao.
Although their blind date arrangement was unsuccessful, this experience became an opportunity for Wang Ning and Liu Chunyan to gradually become acquainted.
A lively and cute girl, the other is a handsome and handsome guy, and the seeds of love are quietly planted between them.
At that time, falling in love was a big deal, and the "scandal" between the two caused a shock to the school teachers, and the school leaders and department heads took turns to talk to them.
Liu Chunyan is from the military compound in Beijing, while Wang Ning is a young talent who receives paid education at Qingdao TV.
Teachers are worried that they may face the pain of long distances or even breakups after graduation.
The teacher's fears came true four years later, and although many units in Beijing gave Wang Ning a chance, Qingdao TV eventually sent the director of the personnel department to recall him.
Liu Chunyan unsurprisingly entered CCTV, which is the top TV station in the country.
Even though they are in a long-distance relationship, this has not affected the relationship between the two. During the time they were separated, they exchanged more than 500 letters, which is enough to show that the relationship between the two sides is very deep.
Wang Ning and Liu Chunyan worked for a short time, and although they did not have a house or car, they still firmly registered their marriage.
He sometimes travels to Beijing to visit her, and she sometimes visits him in Qingdao, both of whom choose to take the green train, which lasts all night.
Thirty years later, Liu Chunyan still remembers the bits and pieces of Qingdao TV with a few treasures.
This has been going on for three years.
In order to solve the problem of being in a different place between them, Wang Ning and Liu Chunyan have made many efforts.
Liu Chunyan had considered going to Qingdao because it was not easy to get into CCTV.
This idea has not yet been implemented, and it is at this time that CCTV launched a new policy:
In order to motivate young employees to go to remote areas for assistance work, CCTV stipulates that all employees who go to help can seek solutions to their personal difficulties from Taili.
After learning the news, Liu Chunyan immediately applied for teaching without hesitation.
The director said happily that when he saw that such an outstanding talent had joined, he wanted to assign her a room and let her join the party.
Liu Chunyan suggested to the director: "I have an idea, you can transfer Wang Ning over." ”
In order to win this opportunity for her husband, Liu Chunyan, a delicate little girl who grew up in Beijing, went to Lu'an, Anhui Province to teach.
She gritted her teeth, resisted the pain of bubbles on the soles of her feet, and persevered through the ten miles of rugged mountain roads.
Liu Chunyan successfully completed the teaching task in 1989, and the director of the station fulfilled his promise and successfully coordinated Qingdao TV to transfer Wang Ning to CCTV, and the biggest obstacle between the two was solved.
Someone later asked Liu Chunyan how she would deal with the situation if her efforts at that time were in vain
She proposed to go to Qingdao as a host.
Someone asked, you were already a famous host Scarab at the time, so how did you make your choice?
She replied firmly, Wang Ning has only one, and her career can start again.
After working at CCTV for more than 20 days, Wang Ning was successfully elected as the anchor of "News Network" with his outstanding performance in all aspects, and has served as the anchor for 28 consecutive years.
Wang Ning came to Beijing for the first time, and because he didn't have his own house, he temporarily lived in his wife's house. He was very respectful of his wife and filial to his in-laws.
As soon as I got it every month, I had to hand over two-thirds to my mother-in-law.
After the young couple ended their long-distance life, their life was as sweet as honey.
Wang Ning would ride his bicycle early after work and wait for Liu Chunyan to be at the door of the unit.
Scarab always behaves like a child, and for unfamiliar people, he even jokingly asked Wang Ning: "Are you going to pick up your daughter from school?"The children are so old?”
Liu Chunyan would wait until outsiders had left before answering, accusing Wang Ning of taking advantage of her and not allowing him to be unhappy.
Wang Ning once said: "Many people have witnessed the growth of scarabs, but scarabs were raised by themselves." ”
It can be clearly felt that Wang Ning takes good care of Liu Chunyan like a daughter.
Wang Ning and Liu Chunyan finally enjoyed CCTV's policy of sharing houses for employees in 1992.
They eventually got a small two-bedroom apartment that was separated, moved out of their parents' house, and began a real life for two.
News Network", as a unified national live broadcast program, basically represents the face and image of the country, and the anchor Wang Ning is under huge pressure.
Often on the night before the live broadcast, I always have a bad night's sleep, a nightmare, a dream that I was on the wrong air or that I had read the wrong script.
In an interview with Lu Yu, Wang Ning mentioned that there was a live broadcast, and he continuously broadcast the news for 16 minutes, and the manuscripts were handed in a steady stream, and the time was so tight that he didn't have time to read the manuscript at all.
It was sixteen minutes before she realized that her shirt and pants were soaked in cold sweat.
In addition to playing the role of anchor on the screen, Wang Ning usually needs to accompany leaders on state visits.
According to statistics, Wang Ning has accompanied the three leaders to visit more than 100 countries, and has not spent the Spring Festival at home for five consecutive years.
When leaders visit abroad, he often voices on buses, toilets, and airports.
The atmosphere of Liu Chunyan's children's station is relatively relaxed, which is in stark contrast to the serious working environment of her husband at CCTV 1.
In fact, the content of the work is by no means simple, and there is no room for error.
Liu Chunyan's "Tangram" and "Smart House" are well-known programs.
Liu Chunyan has also voiced cartoons such as "Doraemon", "Big Head Son", "Ice Queen" and "Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck".
Liu Chunyan even hosted the ** TV Spring Festival Gala on February 9, 2013.
Both have very busy careers, but fortunately, due to their complementary personalities, there is no estrangement in life.
After a full day of news broadcasts, Wang Ning returned home and became silent.
Even though Liu Chunyan worked all day, she was still full of energy when she returned home, which brought Wang Ning a lot of happiness.
According to Wang Ning's account, Liu Chunyan chatted with cats and dogs for half an hour every morning, which made him laugh.
In 1998, 34-year-old Wang Ning and 32-year-old Liu Chunyan ushered in a beautiful result of their long-term relationship.
A year later, the couple welcomed the birth of their daughter, Wang Yichen, whom they regarded as a priceless treasure.
Due to the busy work schedules of both parties, they could not find time to take care of their daughter, so they had to send her to her parents-in-law's house.
Only on weekends and weekends can I have the opportunity to reunite with my daughter.
Her daughter has complained about this, questioning whether she is really biological and why she is always left out by her parents.
As Wang Yichen grew up, she began to understand her parents' feelings, and despite her young age, she showed a mature and steady personality.
Even outside, everyone can't tell who is the child and who is the mother, and he often calls Liu Chunyan "sister" at home, because in the workplace, Liu Chunyan is often called "Sister Yan" by colleagues.
Wang Ning has not been at home for the New Year for a year, and Liu Chunyan took her daughter to celebrate the New Year at her parents' house. The daughter suddenly cried when she was having a reunion dinner, and she cried out loudly that she missed her father.
After learning about this, Wang Ning recalled that he didn't take good care of her daughter when she was born, and felt deeply guilty, so she kept crying at the end of the **.
During Wang Ning's six years in primary school, Wang Ning was not able to attend a parent-teacher meeting.
She lives in a boarding school, and with the care of her grandparents, she rarely comes home, and the time between father and daughter is very limited.
After graduating from elementary school, her daughter directly made a request to go to the United States to attend junior high school, and the couple readily agreed.
As you can imagine when I spent three years in junior high school in the United States, I experienced many hardships.
A little girl on the other side of the ocean is studying, but Wang Ning can't find time to visit her due to work.
Wang Ning rarely has the opportunity to pick up his children at the airport where they return to China during the winter and summer vacations, and these moments of absence make him feel very guilty.
His hosting career had reached its peak, but as a father, he didn't even have time to Xi the course.
Her daughter examined this course, but fortunately she was sensible since she was a child.
In order to make up for the absence of her father in the child's life, Liu Chunyan, as a mother, spent more energy to establish a close relationship with her daughter.
When Liu Chunyan was a child, she would cut her hair to the same as Wang Yichen, and the two of them looked like sisters when they went out.
This makes the child feel that her parents are her friends, and at the same time, it also makes her feel the warmth of the family.
Liu Chunyan is not only trying to make up for the gap between her husband and daughter, but also treats her parents-in-law with great filial piety.
The two old men praised others more than once, saying that Liu Chunyan was very considerate to them and would come back to visit them every year.
Liu Chunyan once posted a ** on social platforms, in which her daughter asked her if she loved her more or her father.
Liu Chunyan held her cheek with one hand and asked her daughter if she was willing to listen to the truth.
The daughter repeated the question just now to her father Wang Ning outside the picture, but she didn't expect Wang Ning to answer without hesitation: "Mom."
Liu Chunyan raised her eyebrows proudly because she heard her husband's answer.
The daughter asked her father why she liked her mother, and Wang Ning replied mischievously: "Probably we didn't know anything about love when we first fell in love." Liu Chunyan laughed and said, "It's too late to regret it." ”
The child smiled and replied to the parents: As long as the mother is happy, we are all happy, and when she is happy, we are satisfied. ”
They shared a lot of family photos online, and the family of three was reunited. Liu Chunyan and her daughter stood together, with similar height, and even looked about the same age.
Wang Ning's tall stature gives people the feeling that he is the father of two daughters.
Wang Ning officially withdrew from "News Network" in 2017, and he has never been involved in housework for many years, and now he has become the head chef at home.
Go to the wet market every day to buy fresh ingredients and prepare rich meals for your family.
Every weekend when her child comes home, Wang Ning will carefully prepare a hearty meal to provide her with comfortable living conditions, because the child has returned to Beijing to attend university.
Packing up the leftovers and putting them in a thermos bucket for her to bring to school, as if she wanted to make up for the debt she owed to her daughter in the past.
When her daughter is on vacation, the family will take time out to travel, and Wang Ning is very careful to dress up for her daughter, buy her gifts and new clothes, and take her to enjoy a seafood feast.
Liu Chunyan occasionally interacts with netizens live to catch up with the trend.
After the audience clicked into the live broadcast room, they were surprised to find that Liu Chunyan actually turned off the reward function and did not sell goods.
Liu Chunyan said with a smile that she is now warming up sales and is ready to start selling books.
In order to increase the atmosphere, she has been conducting a lottery activity, and the prize is a book written and signed by herself.
Although Wang Ning's father is often late, his love for his daughter has never been absent. Today, Wang Ning has grown up and become a beautiful and dignified girl.
She chose to major in psychology rather than art, and if she likes to share her daily life like a normal girl, then she will also show some moments of affection after having a boyfriend.
Although Wang Ning is currently living at home, many businesses want to ask him for endorsement, but he refuses in a tactful way, and is more enthusiastic about devoting himself to public welfare.
Looking back on Wang Ning's busy first half of his life, the firm choice he made in his married life is really rare.
Young people now think that being in a different place, having no house, and having no future are the "death sentences" of love, but Wang Ning and Liu Chunyan have successfully reversed these conditions.
Although becoming a news anchor relied on his wife's efforts to counterattack, Wang Ning still maintained his original intention after becoming famous, and his affection with Liu Chunyan was even greater.
When you're feeling down, she cheers up;When she is frustrated, you bring a smile to her face.
Wang Ning and Liu Chunyan's lives are like this, they enjoy a happy marriage that lasted for 33 years without any scandals.
