After the time was set back to 2017, I didn't see Dong Qing on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. Every Spring Festival, as the standard program of Chinese New Year's Eve dinner-Spring Festival Gala, we can always call out the familiar names like a few treasures: Dong Qing, Li Yong, Zhou Tao, Zhu Jun, Zhu Xun, Kang Hui, ......
I don't know when it began, from the host to the performer, the familiar old faces have long disappeared, replaced by young and beautiful stars, but you can't name them. As the former first sister of CCTV, Dong Qing's national popularity is super high, and she is the third well-known female host after Ni Ping and Zhou Tao. With an elegant and intellectual temperament, the dignified and sensual conversation is widely acclaimed. 
For a long time, Dong Qing's label has an inseparable relationship with CCTV, and her appearance is also related to many grand festivals, her smile is a concrete "Guotai Min'an face", he is defaulted to the "perfect woman" in the new era, everything is impeccable. But for the evaluation of the outside world, Dong Qing said:"Don't deify me, I've had many moments of breakdowns, cries, and tantrums. ”
"Ordinary girl".Dong Qing was born in 1973, both of his parents graduated from Fudan University, and belongs to a family of senior intellectuals. Therefore, the parents' education of Dong Qing is more strict: study hard and work seriously. There are many more inadmissibles than alloweds in small life. 
Copying and reciting poems and ancient texts every day is a constant lesson. During the holidays, my mother would make a list of books, and she would not only read them but also copy down the idioms of the readings: I didn't even know what idioms were at that time. Dad said that all four words were idioms, so once I copied 'back to Vienna' in my notebook, and I was scolded. When I was in elementary school, my father asked Dong Qing to get up before dawn every day and go to the nearby school playground to run laps. 
During the meal, my father would continue to educate Dong Qing and point out her mistakes, even if she did it right, she could only get a better answer, and none of them were praise, so I always cried while eating. In Dong Qing's house, looking in the mirror will also be scolded, Dong's father thinks that a potato is a potato no matter how dressed it is, and loving beauty is a very delayed thing to study. 
During the winter and summer vacations, my father would contact old acquaintances everywhere: Do you need employees there? My daughter is on vacation and can go and help, no money. What a child grows up to depends on what kind of life network her parents can weave for her, show her what kind of life form, and then cultivate it in daily details. Dong's father believes that reading and social practice are far more important than loving beauty and dressing up, so since the age of 15, Dong Qing's winter and summer vacations have been spent in social practice. When she was young, she worked part-time for a very large scale, from announcer to dishwasher and hotel waiter. The strict suppressive education made the young Dong Qing self-disciplined, self-reflective, self-reliant, good at learning, brave and strong. But it also made her relationship with her father very tense for a while. 
During the college entrance examination, Dong Qing applied for the Zhejiang Academy of Arts, and his father strongly opposed it, but this time Dong Qing decided to "fight" with his father to the end, and finally his father finally compromised. During the first winter vacation of college, when I was having dinner again, my father suddenly said to Dong Qing: "I want to apologize to you, for so many years, I have been wrong with you in many ways, don't take it to heart." ”
At that moment, the grievances that had accumulated in Dong Qing's heart melted away little by little, and the hearts of the father and daughter were opened. The education of her parents is a huge "wealth" in Dong Qing's life, and she naturally understands it. Years from now, she will thank herself for her efforts today. And parents don't have to be thankful, as long as the child lives the way she likes, it's really enough. 
Enter CCTVIn 1994, Dong Qing, who had just graduated, was selected as the host of the program by Zhejiang TV, and later transferred to Shanghai Dragon TV. During his time at Dragon TV, he also studied for a bachelor's degree and an on-the-job master's degree at the Shanghai Theater Academy. After becoming famous in Shanghai, Dong Qing received an invitation from ** TV station. At first, she was hesitant, she was already 29 years old, is it really okay to go to the north and start over in a new environment? In the end, Dong Qing decided to go to Beijing alone: "I only know what I gave up, but I don't know what I will get." ”
Just two days before entering CCTV, Dong Qing hosted "Charm 12" on the Western Channel. CCTV is full of talents, Dong Qing's popularity accumulated in Shanghai Taiwan has long been a thing of the past, answering the rental room every night, pushing open the door, and seeing four boxes full of dust, sometimes, she wants to carry the boxes, turn around and leave. At that time, Dong Qing, if there was a little omission in her work, the leader said that she should pay attention in the future, and she was at the meeting site, in front of her colleagues, and shed tears.
Ni Ping remembered that she once met Dong Qing at the scene of the recording of "Art Life", when she had just been transferred to the variety show channel not long ago, Ni Ping said to her: "A soldier has to fight to become a general, if you are sent to the most important scene every time, you must go all out, and you will have no regrets in the future." Dong Qing suddenly held my hand with tears in both eyes. ”Dong Qing, who was strong, was unwilling to give up like this, she began to work harder, and once she was so tired that the fourth section of the tail vertebrae was cracked, but she still limped down and completed the hosting. From Dragon TV to ** TV, from "Charm 12", "Happy China Tour" to the Youth Song Competition, Dong Qing's efforts have finally been seen. In 2005, 32-year-old Dong Qing made her debut at the Spring Festival Gala and hosted the "Spring Festival Gala" for a total of 13 years.
On New Year's Day in 2007, on the program "Happy China Tour", after the last guest performed, there was a gap of two and a half minutes, and the director pinned his hopes on Dong Qing through the headset, but due to the director's misjudgment, two and a half minutes became one and a half minutes. So, in the instructions sent to Dong Qing again, the time was chaotic and the staff were in a hurry, but Dong Qing treated the smile and organized the language with a fast speed, which brought the atmosphere of the scene to the extreme. As soon as she finished speaking, the New Year's bell rang, not missing a second. This paragraph is known as the "golden three minutes" of Dong Qing's career.
In 2012, Dong Qing, who has been coming to CCTV for 16 years, has already become famous. But it was also in this year that Dong Qing found that she couldn't be 100% committed to anything, she didn't have the passion she used to have, and it was quite painful during that time, that is, all the programs handed over to you, you feel the same. Those entertainments — I don't know if it's good to say that —Now sometimes when I watch those shows, I still feel that I am just doing unnecessary consumption. At that time, I was far from knowing that there would be "Reader" in the future, but I already knew that there were some shows that I didn't want to do anymore, and I didn't want to repeat them like that. 」
So, she once again made a decision that shocked everyone - to suspend all work and study abroad.
The days abroad are unusually pleasant, Dong Qing said that this process cannot be said to be like rebirth, it is like polishing your soul. Slowly, I really switched to non-working mode. It was one of Harvin's ** who broke the peace. Harvin invited Dong Qing to host the 2015 Spring Festival Gala, but Dong Qing refused. But Ha Wen did not give up, and the "three visits to the thatched house" made Dong Qing feel a sense of trust and need from the organization. This return has given Dong Qing a new understanding of life, she wants to regain her value and do what she wants to do.
In 2016, Dong Qing took the planning case of "Reader" and found Taili. In the end, the project was unanimously approved, and Dong Qing began to wear many hats: sponsoring, inviting guests, theme drafting, copywriting, stage construction, floor selection, lighting and scenery ......"I cried more when I was preparing (the show), and I often saw that things were going to be done, but the result was not successful, again and again, and I felt why it was so difficult! A man sits on the ground crying, and after crying, he continues to work. ”
No one expected that "Reader" would be loved as soon as it was broadcast, and Dong Qing, who was familiar with classical poetry and foreign literature in the show, became a "true goddess" in the mouth of netizens. No one would have thought that an otherwise unpopular knowledge show would suddenly become popular.
In the show, Dong Qing wore a smart suit, but became more emotional. When interviewing 96-year-old academician Wu Mengchao, Dong Qing choked up several times. When Siqin Gaowa read "Write to Mother" aloud, Dong Qing, who was not confused, was deeply touched and burst into tears.
With the success of "Reader", Dong Qing's career once again ushered in a new peak. Dong's father, who has never praised his daughter, also sent a text message to praise his daughter: "I finally know what you want to do, I'm proud of you." Since then, Dong Qing has finally completed the reconciliation with himself and his father.
Having something to hold on to and striving for it, and feeling fulfilled and fulfilled in your heart, is where happiness and meaning in life lie. After the end of the second season of "Reader", Dong Qing entered a semi-retired state. Many times, some people leave not with a loud bang, but with a whimper. No one knows that after the end of the Spring Festival Gala in 2016, there will be no Dong Qing in the sentence "We'll see you next year".
Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer familiar faces in the Spring Festival Gala, the older generation has quietly left, and new people cannot replace this blank. What is left to us is endless thoughts. A generation has memories of a generation, but among all the narratives, Dong Qing has only one. This person may never come back, maybe tomorrow.
