In 1983, the first CCTV Spring Festival Gala kicked off, which became an eternal memory of the Spring Festival Gala in people's hearts, and at the same time, Zhao Zhongxiang, the CCTV host, left an indelible mark in the hearts of the public.
As an outstanding host of ** TV station, Zhao Zhongxiang has devoted his life to the hosting career, and has hosted the Spring Festival Gala 12 times, becoming an indisputable excellent host in the hearts of the audience.
On January 6, 2020, Mr. Zhao Zhongxiang said goodbye to this world, and his passing made the national audience deeply saddened, and they jointly remembered this old man who made outstanding contributions to China's broadcasting industry.
In addition to mourning, Mr. Zhao Zhongxiang's will was also made public, originally everyone thought that he would leave all the inheritance to his wife Zhang Meizhu, who had spent most of his life with him, but the content of the will was very puzzling.
What is puzzling is that he did not leave the inheritance to his wife, which sparked speculation among netizens, some people thought that Zhao Zhongxiang had problems with his wife's relationship, and the rumors about Zhao Zhongxiang's love life were once again dug up by the audience.
Everyone can't help but wonder why Zhao Zhongxiang didn't leave an inheritance worth 1 billion to this great woman who gave up her career for the sake of her family and has been silently supporting him.
In fact, Zhao Zhongxiang's will is not as complicated as everyone thinks. There are good reasons behind his decision. By observing Zhang Meizhen's current situation, we can clearly see how shrewd Zhao Zhongxiang's original will was.
The love story of Zhao Zhongxiang and Zhang Meizhu stems from their common love - broadcasting. Zhang Meizhu was admitted to China National Radio with excellent results and got the broadcasting job she dreamed of.
And Zhao Zhongxiang also worked in Taili during the same period. By chance, they met at a party under the introduction of a colleague, thus starting a beautiful marriage.
Zhang Meizhu, a perfect girlfriend born in a scholarly family, gentle and elegant, sincere and kind, and outstanding appearance. Zhao Zhongxiang admired her talent and character very much, and the relationship between the two sprouted in mutual appreciation, and finally entered the palace of marriage.
Despite her family's wealth, she did not complain about the hardships of life. When Zhao Zhongxiang's career started and the economy was difficult, she chose to face it with him, even if she lived in a small house in the unit, she could keep her home warm and tidy.
Her love story tells us that love doesn't care about material things, as long as there is sincerity, it can make home the warmest harbor.
Zhao Zhongxiang is deeply grateful to his wife for her family, and in order to give her a better life, he works harder in his career. Their lives are poor, but they are full of happiness.
However, due to social reasons, Zhao Zhongxiang was sent to Huaiyang Cadre School in Henan Province and separated from his wife. The inconvenience of communication technology has forced them to rely on writing letters. Although Zhao Zhongxiang was very reluctant, he still had no other choice.
Zhang Meizhu firmly told him that she would wait for him and let him work with peace of mind. Although they have been separated for many years, their love has not faded. At the end of the turmoil, Zhao Zhongxiang finally returned home and reunited with his wife Zhang Meizhu, and the two hugged and cried, promising to be together forever.
After the reunion, the couple's relationship took to the next level, and soon after, they welcomed a lovely son named Zhao Fang. The family of three began their happy life, and Zhao Zhongxiang's career gradually reached its peak and became a TV host.
Zhang Meizhu took care of the children at home, silently supported Zhao Zhongxiang's career, and kept things at home in order. She can be said to be the woman behind Zhao Zhongxiang's success and his spiritual pillar.
The husband and wife have always been in harmony and have a very happy family, but the appearance of a female doctor named Rao Yi broke their originally peaceful life.
One day in 2004, Rao Ying wept silently in court to expose Zhao Zhongxiang's ugly deeds. She accused Zhao of misconduct towards her and tried to forcibly have sex with her.
She even revealed that Zhao Zhongxiang had promised to give her a name, and she even paid the price of divorce for Zhao Zhongxiang.
The lady claimed that she had been dating Zhao Zhongxiang for 7 years, but he had been cheating in marriage and had multiple lovers. Rao Ying thought that Zhao Zhongxiang was sincere to her, so she did not publicly disclose the matter.
But when she found out that Zhao Zhongxiang was a scumbag with a beast's heart, she sued him in court. In addition, Rao Ying has a diary that records her relationship with Zhao Zhongxiang in detail, and even accuses him of some shameful lewd hobbies.
The content of the diary is very unbearable, which has aroused heated discussions among netizens, and also caused Zhao Zhongxiang's reputation to decline sharply. However, Zhao Zhongxiang said that Rao Ying was only his health worker, and he was not in good health before, so he asked her to come and take care of him.
He said that the person in the recording was not him at all, and Rao Ying just wanted to cheat him out of money.
Due to the lack of conclusive evidence, Rao's accusations were eventually rejected by the court, and Zhao Zhongxiang successfully proved his innocence. However, this incident still sparked widespread heated discussions in the society, after all, as an important member of the CCTV hosts, Zhao Zhongxiang's reputation was inevitably affected somewhat.
For a long time, Zhao Zhongxiang has been committed to developing his hosting career in CCTV, leaving an impression of integrity and reliability on the audience. Now, a woman is making her intimate information public and trying to expose Zhao Zhongxiang, who is also dragging him into the controversy regardless of her reputation.
However, the specific experiences of the two remain a mystery.
Although Zhao Zhongxiang was proven innocent on objective evidence, this did not prevent his reputation from plummeting. His career over the years has allowed him to accumulate a lot of wealth and status in the industry, so many juniors will come to his door for guidance, so as to get a chance to succeed.
However, the occurrence of this kind of incident now makes Zhao Zhongxiang encounter the dilemma of being unable to protect his late season when he is close to retirement, and the relationship between him and his wife Zhang Meizhu has also been questioned by the outside world.
However, Zhang Meizhu stood up to support her husband and firmly believed that he would never do such a thing. Years of married life have made her familiar with Zhao Zhongxiang's character.
Zhao Zhongxiang experienced the severe blow of the Rao Ying incident, but Zhang Meizhu always trusted him and accompanied him out of the haze. But in fact, Zhang Meizhu is the biggest victim, she gave everything for the family, but now she is damaged by her husband's false accusations.
As a woman who gave up her career to pay for her family, it is truly sympathetic that she has suffered a major blow to her family.
She is an extremely brave and resilient woman, in the face of difficulties and dangers, she did not cry and scream, nor did she doubt her partner, but stayed by her husband's side, faced difficulties together, and did her best to maintain the peace of the family.
Ms. Zhang Meizhu is undoubtedly an incomparably strong, calm and rational person, and her presence ensures the harmony and stability of Zhao Zhongxiang's family.
After a major incident, Zhang Meizhu was appreciated by more people. It is widely believed that Zhao Zhongxiang should have left his entire inheritance to his wife, with whom he spends time. The network also agreed that Zhang Meizhu was the most suitable person to obtain this inheritance, however, Zhao Zhongxiang chose his underage grandson Long'er.
After Zhao Zhongxiang retired, he was physically and mentally devastated, unable to get rid of the trouble of extramarital affairs, his reputation was damaged, and his mood was depressed.
The birth of Zhao Zhongxiang's grandson Long'er brought him a new ray of light. In 2012, the former CCTV celebrity welcomed the child of his only son Zhao Fang.
In Chinese culture, there is a common phenomenon called:"Intergenerational parenting", i.e., grandparents often love their grandchildren more than they love their own children.
Zhao Zhongxiang's son Zhao Fang has always adhered to the spirit of independence, started a business with his own ability, and rarely enjoyed his father's fiery love, so his feelings for his father were not deep.
However, Zhao Zhongxiang doted on this little grandson, and would go to play with his grandson almost every few days, and the time spent with his grandson was the most precious time in his later years.
Gradually, the news he posted on social platforms became richer and richer, most of which were details of getting along with his grandson, revealing his deep love for his little grandson.
may be because he was accustomed to seeing the chaos and complexity of society when he was young, and suffered some bad words, which made him physically and mentally exhausted realize that only the innocence and happiness of children can cleanse his soul.
In his more than 60 years of hosting career, Zhao Zhongxiang has become an elite in the industry, accumulating a wealth of nearly 1 billion, and his hosting expenses at his peak are as high as hundreds of thousands or even millions, and his every word is worth a fortune.
Now that he is entering his old age, he is beginning to think about the future of his grandson. His wife has a stable income**, and his son and daughter-in-law are living well, but he also has a lovely grandson who is not yet an adult and has no ability to live independently.
Zhao Zhongxiang believes that this wealth is his grandson's only chance to cope with possible difficulties in the future.
Zhao Zhongxiang's life in his later years lacked companionship, and his relationship with his son was estranged, and only his grandson Long'er was the highlight of his life. Therefore, he decided to leave all of his nearly one billion fortune to his grandson Long'er to inherit.
Zhao Zhongxiang was worried that his children would question his decision, so he privately found his old friend Ni Ping to discuss. Ni Ping expressed support for Zhao Zhongxiang's idea, because the distribution of the inheritance could lead to family conflicts and brothers' rebellion.
Although Zhao Zhongxiang has only one son, there have always been some "vampires" among his relatives and Zhang Meizhu's relatives over the years.
In order to avoid the greed of his relatives, Zhao Zhongxiang decided to leave his entire inheritance to his grandson Long'er. Ni Ping agreed with his decision and assisted Zhao Zhongxiang in persuading his son Zhao Fang and daughter-in-law.
Both Zhao Fang and his daughter-in-law expressed their support. Although Zhao Fang and Zhao Zhongxiang do not have a very deep relationship, he is a reasonable person. His wife is also very understanding, she thinks that giving to children is giving to parents, and they will do their best to raise Long'er to become a talent, and educate Long'er to understand his grandfather's painstaking efforts.
In this way, families can live in harmony and the greed of relatives can be controlled.
After Zhao Zhongxiang passed away, he left a huge fortune of nearly 1 billion, which was eventually inherited by his youngest grandson. He received the understanding and support of his children and wife Zhang Meizhu, and finally passed away with peace of mind.
Although Zhang Meizhu felt very sad when Zhao Zhongxiang passed away, she was not bothered by the distribution of the inheritance, but has always supported Zhao Zhongxiang.
This is not the case, Zhang Meizhu is now taken care of by her son and is living well, and her grandson has inherited her grandfather's property, received a better education, and gained more resources, while also relieving the financial pressure on Zhao Fang and his wife to raise their son.
Isn't this exactly Zhao Zhongxiang's compensation for his son Zhao Fang?
Zhao Zhongxiang's life is full of diligence and love, he is passionate about his career, and he also cherishes his family. He is lucky that he has a good wife who understands him, supports him, and accompanies him, as well as a mature and sensible son and reasonable daughter-in-law.
However, his life was also full of setbacks and difficulties, he suffered unwarranted false accusations and frame-ups, his reputation was damaged, and his health was extremely poor in his later years, and he finally died of illness, which undoubtedly brought him great pain.
Life is full of ups and downs, but it is also full of happiness, and we are full of deep nostalgia for this outstanding old artist, hoping that he can find eternal peace in another world.
Mr. Zhao Zhongxiang's contribution to China's broadcasting industry cannot be erased, and his teachings are worthy of our eternal respect and learning.
Long'er, grandpa hopes that you can understand his deep meaning, don't forget grandma's expectations, properly handle this legacy, let it play a role in meaningful causes, just like grandpa, and still devote himself to charity and contribute to society in his old age.
Grandpa is gone, but we have to live out his spirit and fulfill his last wish.
