In the land of Huaxia, those hosts who can step into the CCTV screen are undoubtedly the host superstars in the Chinese-speaking world.
Names such as Dong Qing and Zhu Jun have long become synonymous with household names, and behind them are all the deep labels of CCTV.
And to be selected by CCTV, isn't this the honor that every host dreams of? But Ren Luyu, this unique hosting genius, his choice is surprising.
When you think of Ren Luyu, you may first think of the female host on the Internet, but his story is far more ups and downs than the host you know. This CCTV's "first brother", who has hosted the Spring Festival Gala for seven consecutive years, has left a deep impression with his unique humor and witty words. However, behind his brilliance, there is a deep mental journey.
At the peak of his career, in 2021, Ren Luyu finally confessed his inner bitterness in a program, and his words were full of deep regret and pain, mentioning that if he had another chance, he would rather not come to Beijing. So, what exactly is it that makes him have such deep regrets?
Back in 2016, it was a critical period for Ren Luyu's career to rise. He has almost become the "iron man" of CCTV, with intensive recording and work every day, and it can be said that he is not idle for a moment. During this time, his father became increasingly weak and sick. As a son, he wished to go home to protect his father, who was drifting away, but the heavy work and professional pursuit made him unable to help himself. On every phone call, his mother told him: "Child, work is important, we are at home." Although this sentence made him feel a little comforted, the guilt and regret could not be erased.
And just when his career reached a new height and became the focus of the Spring Festival Gala, tragedy inadvertently struck. His father, after all, did not wait for his return and left forever. That kind of pain is heart-wrenching, and it is a regret that can never be remedied.
Three years later, in that program, Ren Luyu's eyes turned red, and he looked at the camera, seemingly looking at the distant starry sky: "Dad, how are you doing in the sky?" It's been a long time since I called you 'dad' in our Henan dialect." At this moment, the eyes of the audience were filled with tears.
But life always goes on, and pain and regret have also become the driving force for Ren Luyu to move forward. He was not crushed by this blow, but worked harder, hoping to make up for the regret that could never be recovered with his own efforts.
In life, there are always choices that we deeply regret, but it is these choices that shape a real and full us. Ren Luyu's story tells us to cherish the present and don't let regret become an eternal pain in life.
The enthusiasm for work and life stems in part from the words he once said on social platforms: Better life is the expectation of fathers. Ren Luyu, a name full of local feelings, represents both his roots in Shandong and the source of Henan. His father, a language teacher who knew the beauty of Chinese characters, hoped that his son would be as solid and enthusiastic as the two provinces.
Compared with his brothers and sisters in the family, this kid born in a family with a strong cultural atmosphere is quite rebellious, likes adventures on the streets, and sometimes causes trouble. His parents' bitter hearts did not let him retreat, which made Ren Luyu's father deeply worried. But fortunately, the strong cultural atmosphere at home made him fall in love with classical poetry.
He often recited enthusiastically in school and was praised by many teachers. In order to satisfy his son's enthusiasm, Ren Luyu's father bought many poetry books for him.
Gradually, his Mandarin pronunciation became pure, and he even became a regular guest on the school's radio station. When the teacher half-jokingly said that he would be an excellent host in the future, Ren Luyu seemed to have found the direction of life.
With a clear goal, he no longer idle, but devoted himself to his studies, just to get into a good university and further pursue his dream of being a host. His hard work paid off and he was successfully admitted to the Chinese Department of Henan University. And in college, he did not immerse himself in the euphoria of general youth, but firmly walked towards his dreams. His outstanding performance earned him an internship at Henan TV.
At the TV station, Ren Luyu never slackens, even if he does some chores, he always hopes to learn something from it. His dedication and enthusiasm were quickly appreciated by the top management, opening the door for him to enter the television station.
Despite the tight quota and complicated background of the TV station, Ren Luyu successfully stayed with his strength and determination. Soon, the premiere of "Henan Provincial News Network" hosted by him, he quickly won the love of the audience with his solid skills and unique hosting style, and steadily stood at the peak of Henan television.
But that's not the end for him. His vision has gone beyond Henan and looked at the larger stage of CCTV. Although the outside world believes that this is a risky choice, Ren Luyu knows that his future still has a long way to go.
Faced with the decision to go to the capital, the people around him were almost opposed, even his mother. But amid all the opposition, his father gave him a special advice: "Pursue your true dreams, fearless choices, as long as you firmly believe in yourself, you can go to the best result."
Things at home, you just need to rest assured and take care of yourself. With his father's encouragement, Ren Luyu confidently embarked on the road to the north and said goodbye to his TV job in Henan.
Starting over, while challenging, is not impossible for him who already has deep experience in the television industry.
When he first arrived, he had to do the most basic work with a group of enthusiastic interns, and he was naturally a little unwilling in his heart. But he persevered and believed that "gold will shine."
Soon, CCTV gave him more opportunities and promotions, and the leaders also saw his potential and gave him more tasks. However, everyone's career has bottlenecks, and Ren Luyu is no exception.
Fortunately, his father always believed in him and injected continuous motivation into him, and he gradually emerged with his own strengths, and soon occupied an important position in CCTV, becoming a well-known "CCTV brother".
In addition to the glory of his career, his emotional life is also enviable. Ren Luyu and the talented daughter Zhu Jing met when he first entered CCTV, when he had not yet achieved great achievements, and there was indeed a clear gap compared with Zhu Jing's family background. But Zhu Jing, with her unwavering love, has always supported him and believes that he will make a difference.
Their relationship is stronger as a result. In 2009, Ren Luyu's career reached its peak, and the two soon entered the palace of marriage and lived happily. Zhu Jing's understanding and support, especially when Ren Luyu experienced the grief of his father's death, made him feel a lot, and expressed his deep gratitude to her on social media many times.
Now, he is already the father of two babies, and he has shared his happy moments, with a bright smile, as if to tell everyone: Ren Luyu is already a winner in life.
