Hello brothers and sisters, the protagonist of our story today can be called a "household name" - the title of Officer Tan should be familiar to everyone, right?
Since 2005, "Tan Talking about Traffic" hosted by Tan Qiao has been broadcast on Chengdu TV, unlike most of the serious preachy popular law programs "Tan Talking about Traffic", which is simple and pro-people, edutainment and education, and has become popular all over the country.
But who would have thought? As the most high-profile protagonist in the show, Tan Qiao, who stepped out of the camera, became a depressed middle-aged man who even wanted to commit suicide. What did he go through in this ups and downs of his life?
Today we will tell you about this!
The main content of the show "Tan Talks About Traffic" is that Officer Tan is looking for traffic violations on the road. When they met, they stopped the other party, and then used his unique "pretzel Mandarin" to chat for two sentences, "by the way" to carry out some persuasion.
In that era when road traffic was called "the dance of the demons", Officer Tan's daily attendance was like "opening a blind box", never knowing what strange things he would encounter at the next stop.
For example, he stopped a driver who was smoking while driving, opened the trunk, and found 4 men huddled inside playing mahjong.
There was also an uncle who was reading while riding an electric car, stopped down, and only then did he know that he was watching "Four Psychological Roots that Induce One-Night Stands".
There is a spirit boy who claims to have practiced waist and horse unity and fell a in the blink of an eye.
There is a red hair that kills Matt for fear of the helmet crushing the hairstyle
Of course, there is also the most out-of-the-loop "Uncle Erxian Bridge"
"Where are you going?"
"To the Erxian Bridge!"
"To what Erxian Bridge, which path do I mean you should take?"
"Walk chenghua avenue!"
"What Chenghua Avenue... Your car can pull..."
"Can pull a little!"
Since then, the people of the whole country have known that to go to the Erxian Bridge, they have to walk chenghua avenue.
Like the above kinds of jokes, "interview subjects" can be described as endless in "Tan Talks About Traffic", but Officer Tan's own funny talent has not fallen.
Someone used a small motor to pull two large sofas, and he opened a "high-end interview" on the side of the road with props on the spot.
The eldest brother and Officer Tan came and went, and they were stunned to pull environmental problems, financial crises, and people's livelihood matters from second-hand furniture...
However, in addition to a variety of interesting dialogues, "Tan On Traffic" occasionally discovers some sad and touching stories.
For example, "Brother Balloon", he said that he had sold crooked cigarettes and wine before, earned money, and his family was happy, but then the business was destroyed, he was poor, and his wife ran away with people.
So he can only pedal three wheels and run the construction site, and now he makes a living by selling balloons, but when asked if the balloon is also "crooked", he replied - "This is made of environmentally friendly plastic"
"This is for the growth of the next generation of the motherland"
There is also "Uncle Fugui"
In 2011, Uncle Tan was stopped by Tan Qiao because of the violation, and after a chat, he said that he was 69 years old. The father died for 11 years, the brother died for 18 years, the mother died for more than 20 years, and even the wife had difficulty giving birth, and died with the children.
Now the only sustenance for uncle is his brother with intellectual disabilities in the car and an old dog that is dying
His life experience is simply as bleak as Fugui in "Alive"
In the face of such a life encounter, Officer Tan had some doubts, "Why is it so miserable, but it seems that I am still very happy to see you?" ”
The old man answered only three words
"Looking Forward"
This courage in the face of suffering not only made Tan Qiao admire, but also made countless netizens break the defense.
In fact, speaking of this, everyone should also be able to feel that "Tan Talks About Traffic" is not just a popular law program. Its real charm is to truly show the life of the people at the bottom, so that everyone can touch the rough and warm human fireworks.
However, as the core character of the show, as well as a witness who has experienced the scene and the first perspective.
Officer Tan used his eyes and hands to measure the beauty and temperature of those people's lives, but many people ignored that he was also one of the rolling red dust.
Officer Tan was born in an ordinary family in the south of Chengdu, and he loved to listen to crosstalk since he was a child, so he spoke with joy.
When interviewing a traffic police officer in 1995, the interviewer asked," "Why did you want to be a police officer?" Tan Qiao did not pretend to be like this, and sang a children's song "A Penny".
"I was on the side of the road, picked up a penny, and handed it to the police uncle"
He told the interviewer that his mother had told him since he was a child that the police were the protector of everyone
The interviewer at the time did not know that under Tan Qiao's seemingly humorous words, there was actually a heavier reason behind it, and he had a sense of mission for this profession
When he was 16 years old, Tan Qiao went out, driving a road roller on the road, and was paving the asphalt road
Seven or eight meters away, a woman rode a bicycle, and in the back seat carried a little girl of about 5 years old
Suddenly, an accident happened
The mother braked sharply, and the child fell in the middle of the rollers in front of and behind the roller
At that time, everyone called out "ah" out
But the roller was particularly loud, and the machine still pressed past the little girl's head...
That picture caused a particularly big impact on Tan Qiao
At that time, he thought to himself - I will become a traffic policeman in the future
Be sure to let everyone know the importance of traffic safety
After becoming a real traffic policeman, Tan Qiao did a great job
Not only do they do their duty every day, but they also do not let go of the leaders' violations
In order to reduce traffic jams, he would open the computer to draw the intersection plan after work
Unfortunately, I handed it over, and most of them did not respond
Until 2004, in order to cooperate with the implementation of the new Dao Law
The television station and the Traffic Management Bureau decided to produce a program
Tan Qiao is close to the people because of his good expression
Not surprisingly, I was chosen
At the beginning of the production of the show
Internal regulations: Words that are not related to the correction of traffic violations cannot be said
But Tan Qiao is still as "sharp" as ever.
Each issue will say a lot of homely words, show funny words
Of course, it's not just about being funny
Rather, it is to better spread the concept of safety
"Let me ask more, care more, is it related to correcting traffic violations?"
"I think it's relevant, I'm going to punish him, not to punish the result, but to know why he broke the law"
"That's the difference between me and other traffic police enforcement."
"The work of the traffic police is not to issue tickets, but to care about everyone's life"
With that in mind
When the violation is found, Officer Tan never condescends to say so
"You're out of tune"
It's about being able to think from the other person's point of view—
"You are pulling goods in violation of regulations like this, in case you lose your body into it, wouldn't it be more of a loss?"
Sometimes, there is a real pain in the encounter
Tan Qiao will also help others pay fines himself, or donate living expenses
You see
The significance of this show has long been more than just a simple "popularization of law"
It's fun, it's authentic, it's warm, it's educational
How can "Tan Talk Traffic" not be popular?
After the show went viral
Small traffic policeman Tan Qiao also embarked on the "peak of life"
People will be recognized when they walk on the street, and everyone will treat him as a guest at the meeting
Olive branches were also thrown
Hunan Tv dug him up and said his show was worth a hundred million
CCTV also wants people, let him go to Beijing to open a column, with a monthly salary of 30,000
However, Tan Qiaotong, who earned four thousand a month, refused
The reason is simple -
He said he was part of the Sichuan traffic police and he hoped to receive honors for the collective
The heart of a child will not change for ten years
Such an original intention is worthy of praise in any story
But in real life, for Tan Qiao
This doesn't seem like a good decision
Because he missed the opportunity to promote and monetize
Soon a crisis ensued
After becoming famous, he will always be criticized
Touching the poor violated the rules
Some people say that he "only knows how to catch peasants and bully these poor and honest people."
Encounter ordinary car violations
Someone said, "You see he only knows how to catch those skimmed (dialect: bad) cars."
"The luxury car does not dare to catch it at all, do you see that Rolls-Royce, he dares to be scared to death"
Wait for Tan Qiao to really stop a luxury car
Those people's words changed again, "Oh, the fart is a big thing, on the line"
"Don't you just look at the luxury cars that people drive, Qiu Fu?"
With the attention, controversy also came
For a moment, it seemed as if everything he did was wrong
But these are bad things
In Tan Qiao's mind, it was not even digested
It's just hiding, forgetting
Then shoot the next issue
Worse than that, there is the "no shore at both ends" colleague relationship
Because I spend most of the day on the road, I can't see anyone
So the traffic police bureau thinks he's from a TV station
The TV station thought he was from the Traffic Police Bureau
Not only did his colleagues not take him as a friend, but the leaders did not value him
Sometimes in the unit of that kind of "if there is nothing" exclusion
It made him feel extremely uncomfortable
And from a realistic point of view
Tan Qiao did the show though was booming
But from the perspective of real money and status
He's no different than he was when he first started
But almost all the police officers who joined the company at the same time were promoted and raised
And in the past 13 years, more than 3,000 programs have been supported by him
Tan Qiao, who was more and more uninspired, had deeper and deeper anxiety in his heart
In addition, coupled with the marriage is not going well, the parents are sick
Officer Tan finally couldn't resist
"Tan On Traffic" announced that it would be suspended
After the program was suspended, Tan Qiao's life still did not return to the past
He probably never thought about it
The image you create on TV will actually devour yourself in turn
During that time, even if I had stepped out of the camera
But still have to play Wei Guangzheng's "Police Officer Tan" all the time
Winter 2016
Because the community where they live has to increase parking fees, a group of owners outside are blocking the door to defend their rights
And Tan Qiao was just passing by, and he was forcibly sealed as the "owner's representative"
The police thought he was taking the lead in making trouble, so they directly stuffed him into the van and took him to the police station
Rumors abounded for a time
"Officer Tan, who always takes people back to the police station, was taken away by the police!"
Later, Tan Qiao, who was living a miserable life, opened a live broadcast
Originally, I just wanted to chat with everyone, but many people began to brush gifts
Tan Qiao dissuaded, and suddenly someone came out again, saying that he just felt that everyone brushed too little
Tan Qiao was most afraid of being misunderstood, and he couldn't help but explode a foul mouth
Unexpectedly, it was recorded and posted on the Internet, and it suddenly exploded
Tan Qiao quickly apologized and was punished again
I was very aggrieved
"I am obviously Tan Qiao, a man with seven passions and six desires"
"But Officer Tan is like a god being, and there can be no flaws"
"Can't even say a foul mouth"
The mood took another hit
Tan Qiao's depression also became more and more serious, even to the point of wanting to commit suicide
Coincidentally, there was another suicide case in my community at that time
Afraid of doing something stupid himself, he moved
Deliberately lowered from the 22nd floor to the 2nd floor
As a result, not long after moving, some people in the new community committed suicide again
Depressed to the extreme, Tan Qiao suddenly thought of the "Fugui Uncle" of that year.
I thought that maybe from him, I could find some motivation for life
Later, after several searches, Tan Qiao really found uncle
At that time, the uncle lied about his age because he was afraid of being punished
In fact, he is only 60 this year
But the other parts of the experience are real
now
Although the old dog was stolen, the younger brother was still stupid
But the uncle had a wife and gave birth to a 5-year-old daughter
After the government built a house, uncles made a living by collecting waste
Despite the low income, life is still difficult
But it's much better than before
Uncle Da's attitude towards life is also the same as when he first met
When there is a difficulty, it is overcome
As long as you live, there is hope for everything
This time "Fugui Uncle" words
It is undoubtedly the best comfort and encouragement for Tan Qiao
He suddenly realized that "those will eventually pass"
After reconciling with yourself
Tan Qiao became an ordinary middle-aged man again
Take care of parents and daughters
Every day I go to work, buy groceries and cook, and worry about what little hair I have left
However, the only difference from before is that
He started taking occasional videos
Revisit people you've met in the past and talk about the latest situation
For example, Uncle ErxianQiao
Ten years later, his body is much tougher
There is also Boss Lu who sells second-hand
After 12 years, he no longer has to pull a couch on the road
Instead, it has a big shop
The name is "High-end Interview Showcase Store"
Now, Tan Jo's show may not be as funny as it used to be
But you can see it too
After the precipitation, he had more feelings about the years and fate
This is the new meaning that Tan Qiao brings now
Hope is on the way to picking up those fragments of time
Tan Qiao can get back to the free self he once was
Forget about your pain and troubles and just move on
This time, we stopped calling him "Officer Tam."
He is Tan Jo
A man of flesh and blood, with seven passions and six desires
An ordinary, but not so ordinary person
