In 2013, "Seeing" was released nationwide.
At the press conference, Bai Yansong, Cui Yongyuan, Luo Yonghao, Chen Xiaoqing and other bigwigs were in charge, and Qiu Qiming presided over it, which was known as the "most powerful literary and artistic media lineup" that year. Within a few months, "Seeing" sold more than one million copies, and since then, it has been continuously reprinted, sweeping the borrowing lists of major bookstores and libraries in China. This is Chai Jing's last highlight moment. Two years later, she will usher in another "highlight", "Under the Dome" detonated the whole network. But this time it made the wrong bet, and the documentary was taken off the shelves at the speed of light, which attracted a lot of scolding. "* thief", "stinky public knowledge", "pseudo-Wenqing", "* person" and other labels have been affixed to the coat of the party. From a novice in the workplace to a well-known goddess, Chai Jing has been walking for ten years. And falling from the altar, Chai Jing only took two years. In 2015, the smog investigation documentary "Under the Dome" was broadcast on major platforms, and in just one week, the number of ** reached tens of millions, triggering ***
And the director of the documentary is the popular CCTV goddess and well-known host Chai Jing.
Chai Jing, but to the surprise of the parties, the reviews of this documentary were polarized.
Some netizens believe that the interview of "Under the Dome" is very "humane", rational, neutral and objective, which improves the public's awareness of environmental protection and accelerates the process of controlling smog in the north;
But more netizens feel that the data of this documentary film is fraudulent, attacking the oil monopoly, touting Western values, and full of Chai Jing's personal ideological bias.
However, these are only discussions on the surface.
What really made Chai Jing step down from the altar was because the sponsor behind this documentary was the American ** Association.
Chai Jing once put "Ford ** Club" in the end of the credits thank you list, which is a low-key and huge non-** organization, which is commonly known as "NGO".
Chai Jing Haze Investigation: Under the Dome" Many years later, the popular science since ** "Paperclip" was wanted by the whole network for the meat, eggs and milk incident, and the cause is also inextricably linked to this NGO organization.
With the continuous fermentation of **, the official finally came forward, and "Under the Dome" was removed from the major *** one after another.
Overnight, Chai Jing's label changed from "conscience of the republic" and "goddess of literature and art" to "* thief", and became the target of public criticism.
However, despite the surging public opinion, the person concerned did not intend to "apologize", but decisively "closed the net" and ignored the public's evaluation and discussion.
At the same time, Chai Jing was selected as one of the "Top 100 Global Thinkers" by the American media "Foreign Policy", and was included in the same list as then German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Swedish Foreign Minister Strom.
This year, Chai Jing was 39 years old.
Chai Jing. Two years ago, she brought new books to the whole network, and there was a grand occasion in the people that wherever there was a bookstore, there must be Chai Jingshu. After "Seeing", more young netizens became fans of Chai Jing.
A large number of interview clips were put on the Internet platform, and Chai Jing's sharp and keen interviews and sincere and friendly attitude left a deep impression on the audience.
But at the same time, it also laid a "mine" for the subsequent **.
Before the "Haze Storm", she had countless halos: CCTV host, best-selling author, industry benchmark, and goddess of Wenqing.
Some Weibo fans even left messages saying that she was the "conscience of the republic".
Back then, ** drama was popular, Lin Huiyin was named "** Goddess", Chai Jing was a representative of "Wenqing" and "Public Knowledge", and some male fans called it "Chai Huiyin". For a while, there was no difference in the limelight.
In the just coming 4G era, the Internet is undoubtedly a huge vanity fair. Countless people lined up to plunge into the "hot pot" of traffic. Some people have become demons, some have become gods, and some have become ghosts.
At that time, Chai Jing, who was pushed to the altar, was indulging in it, unaware of what was about to happen.
Until the night she flew to the United States.
In 1976, Chai Jing was born in a small city in Linfen, Shanxi.
His father is a famous local doctor, and his mother is a middle school teacher, which can be regarded as a standard middle-class family.
Childhood Chai Jing. Influenced by her mother, Chai Jing has loved reading since she was a child. At the age when her peers were still ignorant, she had already browsed a lot of literary and artistic works and various magazines and publications.
When she was in middle school, just in time for the "literary fever", Chai Jing contributed a lot of articles to the school radio station and the local publishing house.
At that time, announcer was a very popular profession, and she hoped that she would grow up to be a broadcast host and let others hear her voice rather than writing.
At the age of 16, Chai Jing was admitted to Changsha Railway College. During her studies, Chai Jing also worked as a part-time reporter for a period of time in "Sanlian Life Weekly", which strengthened her belief in going to the industry.
When she graduated, Chai Jing was not yet twenty years old, and she was assigned to work at the Taiyuan Railway Bureau. Whether it was then or now, this job is a rare "iron rice bowl" in the eyes of everyone, and it is rarely close to home.
But Chai Jing, who was arrogant at that time, was not satisfied with such a life.
So, Chai Jing wrote a letter to Hunan TV. A few months later, she received an invitation from the TV station, and after passing the interview, she worked as a host of the literary channel at the provincial radio station.
Chai Jing did not discuss with her family, and went to Changsha the next day after handing in her resignation letter.
Chai Jing and her family at that time Chai Jing was young and lively, full of literary and artistic style. This show can be called tailor-made for her.
When the ** sounded tonight, Fusheng had already crossed the Qianshan Road. ”
In the last years of the twentieth century, "Gentle Night" set off from both sides of the Xiangjiang River and became a compulsory late-night program on university campuses at that time.
But Chai Jing, who is new to the workplace, seems to have bigger dreams.
In 1998, while hosting "New Youth", Chai Jing entered the Beijing Broadcasting Institute (Communication University of China) for further study through special recruitment, majoring in TV editing.
This learning experience has had a great impact on her future news interviews and program production.
Around 2000, CCTV planned to absorb fresh blood and recruit hosts for the in-depth report column "**".
Chai Jing stood out from a group of young hosts and joined "** to become the left and right partner of the popular "pillar" Bai Yansong.
White rock pine of the period.
From this time on, Chai Jing's sweet and intellectual image began to appear on the TV screen of the audience's home.
In the first year of entering CCTV, Chai Jing also met the most important noble person in her career - Chen Fei.
At that time, Chen Yu was the producer of "**" and a well-known producer of CCTV. When he interviewed Chai Jing, the first question he asked the other party was:
If you were asked to do journalism, what would you care about most? ”
Chai Jing's answer was simple and firm:"I care about the people in the news. ”
Such a seemingly concise answer deeply moved Chen Fei. After that, Chai Jing was successfully selected into the "** column group" and started her 13-year CCTV career.
Chen Fly. But it really took hundreds of millions of viewers to remember her ** image until 2003.
That year, "SARS" spread across the country, and Chai Jing took the initiative to ask Ying to serve as a reporter for CCTV's "News Investigation".
In order to understand a more real on-site situation, Chai Jing went to the front line and talked face-to-face with SARS patients seven times, leaving precious first-hand information for CCTV and society.
Before going out for an interview, Bai Yansong gave two sentences to his younger sister:
"Sending you away today is so that you can come back better tomorrow, you will be one of the best hosts in China, but not yet, you need to hone it. ”
After the SARS epidemic, Chai Jing's image of being brave and firm and close to the people has gradually taken root in the hearts of the people. At the end of that year, Chai Jing was named "2003 Chinese Journalist of the Year" and officially entered the ranks of front-line reporters.
Chai Jing. In the next 10 years, as Bai Yansong said, Chai Jing shined on the stage of CCTV and became one of the most well-known hosts in China.
She traveled from south to north, went deep into the scene, practiced the news concept she believed in, and paid attention to the people in the story.
"An interview is a kind of arrival," she said.
Is this "arrival" the truth itself, or the stubbornness and wishful thinking of the news parties?
Now we don't know.
From a fledgling to a goddess who is loved by everyone, Chai Jing's "first sister" road took less than 10 years.
Of course, there is naturally the help of nobles behind this.
In addition to Chen Fei, who is also a teacher and friend, Chai Jing's fame is also closely related to the two lovers behind her.
The first is the well-known commentator Su Qun.
Su Qun Chai Jing. During her school days, Chai Jing met Su Qun, a smash hit NBA commentator at the time, through a party.
Although Su Qun's rank is not high, with a "famous mouth", he has a wide network of contacts in the hosting industry and the reporter circle. After some chatting, the two met late, and after a few meetings, Chai Jing and Su Qun quickly came together.
But what is surprising is that Su Qun already had a wife at that time, and his wife was pregnant.
Although Chai Jing was careful to keep it a secret, Su Qun was not satisfied with this "underground relationship", and quickly informed his family about the two. Not surprisingly, the whole family is against the relationship between Su Chai and the two.
But Su Qun, who has always been smart, seems to be carried away by this relationship, insisting on divorcing his wife and persuading the other party to kill the fetus in the womb.
A few months later, Su Qun officially announced his relationship with Chai Jing to the outside world, and announced that the two had lived together. During this period of time with Su **, Chai Jing successfully joined CCTV, and since then has hosted and recorded many important programs.
And Chai Jing and Chen Yu's acquaintance originated from Su Qun's matchmaking.
Su Qun. After participating in the recording of "**", Chai Jing became famous and gradually gained a firm position within CCTV. On the contrary, it was Su Qun's side, because of the divorce turmoil, his career quickly went downhill.
However, this relationship soon came to an end.
Just a year later, Chai Jing met her second lover and future husband, Zhao Jia.
Before SARS, CCTV planned to shoot a documentary program about Mount Everest. As an excellent backbone representative of Taili, Chai Jing signed up as soon as possible. The program invited Zhao Jia as Chai Jing's "queen" photographer.
With a shared love for photography, the two quickly fell in love.
Of course, when the matter reached Su Qun's ears, it was already a later story.
As a person who has experience in splitting legs, Su Qun never imagined that he would be "split" by others one day. How similar this is to his ex-wife's experience.
And between Su Qun and Zhao Jia, Chai Jing chose the younger and more attractive Zhao Jia.
Chai Jing Zhao Jia. Under the double pressure of ** and family, Su Qun had no bargaining chips, and finally completed the relationship between the two.
But the good times didn't last long, and only a year later, Zhao Jia announced their breakup because of a similar splitting plot.
Surprisingly, 10 years later, in 2013, Chai and Zhao miraculously got back together and received a marriage certificate.
At that time, Chai Jing was pregnant and resigned from CCTV in early 14. On the eve of her resignation, Chai Jing went to the United States to give birth and recuperate, and almost overnight broke the title of "the poorest host" posted by fans.
This scene is very similar to the later Dong Qing.
Half a year later, she left behind her children and nanny, and drifted back down the current.
Chai Jing. The first 10 years of the new century were 10 years of China's economic surge and 10 years of Chai Jing's career taking off.
In the past ten years, Chai Jing has participated in and planned many iconic programs such as "News Investigation", "Face to Face", "Observation of the Two Sessions" and "Seeing".
She participated in the reporting of many public events such as Wenchuan**, Beijing Olympics, Buxuan in the North Continent, and Yaojiaxin murder case, and conducted in-depth interviews with Zhang Chaoyang, Yu Minhong, Stephen Chow and other celebrities, and became a model for people to follow.
At the same time, she and Luo Yonghao, Zhang Hongjie, Wang Xiao, Liu Yu, Zhou Yunpeng and others are friends with each other, and the article talks for many men, and Lao Luo is his "best friend" among men. There are ** rumors that she once had an ambiguous relationship with Feng Tang.
She described Feng Tang as "an egg under the red flag". She wrote about him in "Hybrid Feng Tang":
In the university dormitory, I drank inferior jasmine tea every day, sat and watched the golden glazed ghost fire in the Forbidden City flicker, and when I went abroad to do consulting, I knew that the words written on an A4 piece of paper could be exchanged for 20,000 US dollars. ”
Between the lines, there is a taste of the literary and artistic tone of that era.
Facing the reporter's question, Feng Tang replied lightly: "Chai Jing is a good girl." ”
Chai Jing Feng Tang. Later, Feng Tang divorced, left China Resources and McKinsey, and became a poet in his small courtyard with peace of mind.
Chai Jing still maintains a strong sense of professionalism, drifting between the interview scene and Vanity Fair.
Until the night of the collapse of the edifice came.
An avalanche is not caused by a single snowfall.
Chai Jing's "collapse" was foreshadowed a few years before the "turmoil in the United States".
In 2009, the United Nations convened a climate conference in Copenhagen.
China sent Ding Zhongli, vice president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, as an expert representative, and the theme of the meeting was to discuss how much carbon dioxide countries should emit in the future to cope with global warming.
During the conference, Ding Zhongli had a confrontational discussion with the representatives of various countries, but in the end they could not reach an agreement.
In 2010, CCTV's "Face to Face" invited Academician Ding to record a program, and Chai Jing served as the interviewer.
There was a heated debate on what constitutes a fair plan to reduce emissions.
Face to face" Chai Jing talks to Ding Zhongli.
Chai Jing stands from the perspective of an environmentalist, insisting that carbon emissions should be taken on a national basis, and accepts the plan proposed by the IPCC (Committee on Climate Change);
Academician Ding Zhongli pointed out the advantages and disadvantages from the perspective of national development
He believes that this is a means used by the developed countries to restrict the economic growth of the developing countries in the name of "environmental protection," and the result is that the gap between the rich and the poor between the poor and the rich countries is getting wider and wider, and the people's living standards are falling instead of rising.
There is a key point here - that is, the developed countries have gone through the whole process of the industrial revolution and completed the accumulation of capital and wealth, but most of the developing countries have not completed industrialization.
When Chai Jing asked, "What do you understand to be fair?" Ding Zhongli gave a clear answer.
He regards emission rights as the right to development and basic human rights, that is, "there should be roughly equal emission space between people", and it is common sense to take it as a per capita unit, not a national unit.
Ding Zhongli. In order to avoid misunderstandings, Academician Ding Zhongli also gave a set of data:
For more than 100 years since 1900, the per capita carbon emissions of developed countries in the West have been 7% of those of developing countries5 times. Even under the current IPCC scheme, the per capita emissions of the G8 countries are 2 of China's3 times.
Therefore, this is an unequal "treaty" for both China and other developing countries.
For example, at the moment of economic downturn, the company wants to reduce salaries and reduce expenses, and the salary of an employee in the same position is 2 of the other3 times, his previous salary was higher than yours, but now his salary has not decreased, but the money you get is getting less and less.
In that case, who would do that?
It is regrettable that Chai Jing did not accept Academician Ding's views, but continued to give negative feedback.
She made a seemingly high-level but foolish mistake here
She sought to elevate environmental issues to a moral issue of the survival of all mankind, and dismissed the interviewees' responses as ideological and political issues.
This is a typical Western-centric way of thinking.
Chai Jing. In the face of the host's aggressiveness, Academician Ding issued that classic "torture":
"Do you say Chinese are human? Why should the same Chinese be less ranked? ”
Chai Jing did not answer this question.
According to the plan of that year, China's current emission space would only last for 10 years. After 2020, China will need to buy emission space from Western countries.
According to Academician Ding's calculations at that time, the annual carbon emission cost would exceed 1 trillion yuan.
It is true that from the perspective of the person concerned, we have reason to believe that Chai Jing is a staunch environmentalist and committed to building a "beautiful home". Although it carries a fair degree of idealism.
But we also have good reason to believe thatChoosing between survival and decency, smart as Chai Jing, it's impossible not to know how to choose.
Chai Jing's change actually had a precursor.
Since she resolutely ran away from the system, she recommended herself to the TV station several times, and then competed to be the "vanguard" in major events; and then went in and out from several relationships, went abroad in a low-key manner and then made a high-profile comeback.
It seems to prove that her character is born with the shadow of adventure and rebellion.
Chai Jing. In an era when information channels were not yet smooth, Chai Jing's independent, intellectual, and well-spoken image in front of the camera became a model for women to emulate in that era.
But is the "truth" and "essence" she pursues just a personal prejudice with filter bubbles?
From now on, time seems to have given the answer.
For example, "Under the Dome" does have its relevance, revealing the environmental problems that are common in contemporary China and arousing public awareness of smog pollution.
But at the same time, it has turned a deaf ear to China's performance in environmental governance in the north over the past 30 years, pointing the finger at state-owned enterprises such as PetroChina and Sinopec.
This method of "picking thorns in the basket" is undoubtedly a one-sided attribution, and it has also hurt the feelings of hundreds of millions of Chinese people.
Chai Jing. Secondly, in addition to personality factors,The most important thing is the change of the external environment.
in web1In the 0 era, the public has limited access to external information, and information access is still dominated by print media and television, and there are still layers of barriers from the information end to the receiving end.
Even if it is popular, the dominance of the content is still not in the hands of the "grassroots", but the traditional and celebrities who cater to the market, so in the past few years, a large number of well-known big Vs such as Chai Jing , Gao Xiaosong , ** Chu Yin , Sima Nan , Lang Xianping and even the genius red panda have been born.
More than ten years ago, these people often held the vane of information dissemination, influencing the public's thinking and trend.
This situation did not gradually disintegrate until the advent of the mobile Internet wave.
With the rise of the self-leading platform, netizens as viewers and readers finally have a channel to express their views and emotions, and the information is no longer single, and some public issues and hot phenomena that were originally shelved have also been re-discussed.
Chai Jing's point of view, Lu Yu's interview, the celebrity's outrageous remarks, the arrest of the local snake, the entertainment industry, campus bullying, and the unspoken rules of the workplace. A new generation of netizens began to stand up for them again.
Chai Jing became a well-known V, began to be "cowardly", the roles were reversed, and social ** became the "ring" of grassroots netizens.
The memory of the Internet is longer than the life span of people", the barriers of information have been broken year by year, which is also the reason why Chai Jing was repeatedly mentioned by some netizens after Gao Xiaosong, Fang Fang and other "public knowledge" fell down.
Of course, in addition to the above statements, there are still many factors in Chai Jing's "collapse". Hidden behind the **, there is also the confrontation and collision between the emerging middle class and the lower class.
They are good at making use of **, packaging their own needs as the needs of the majority, but they do not personally stand on the position of the masses, and then they are accustomed to expressing their views in an unquestioning tone, in order to achieve the purpose of educating society.
However, water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat. It is difficult for anyone to be able to harness the big ship of public opinion.
At the beginning, countless netizens sent Chai Jing to the "altar", and correspondingly, the next group of netizens pushed them off the altar. The times are noisy and the creation is busy, and the Internet will never lack myths.
Chai Jing's arrogance can be understood as the arrogance of the elite, or the arrogance of the literary youth of that era.
Chai Jing. They may have the ideal of transforming society, lamenting the misfortune of their people and angry with their people, but they are rarely willing to bow down and listen to what the people really think.
Because they don't trust their former compatriots, they just rudely classify them as a rabble.
They only see the shortcomings of a country and the ills of society, but they forget to look at their own shortcomings.
Until their wounds begin to rot.
