Suffering from cancer in 2022, Cao Jingxing is still determined to update more than 400 news every day and continues to host the program of Phoenix Satellite TV.
You may not know Cao Jingxing, but you should always know the columns "Current Affairs Talk" and "Sonorous Three's Company", right? He planned all this behind his back.
He was praised as "the genius of Phoenix TV" by the vice president of Phoenix TV; Dou Wentao describes him as "a one-man news organization"; And Lu Yu jokingly called him "the killer of the grandmother".
Cao Jingxing is a leader in the four worlds of politics, economics and literature, and he founded "Current Affairs Talks", which is also a widely acclaimed program.
Every time I saw the founder, everyone respectfully called him "Mr. Old", and in the eyes of some new journalists, this old man is a legend.
He is even known as the "first person in the TV Times" in the industry, and is known as the "News Radar".
Everyone's attention was focused on the news of Cao Jingxing's death. Only to unexpectedly see that until two days before his death, his circle of friends was still very active, with dozens or hundreds of news almost a day.
His obsessive love for journalism. His professional integrity and deep knowledge of journalism make him one of the most valuable figures in journalism.
The true meaning of "devotion" is best interpreted in his life, and it is this love that makes him an irreplaceable figure in the media.
Cao Jingxing's life can be said to be colorful and rich. He first worked as a worker, then in the press, and finally in the media.
His career has gone through several different stages, including his tenure at Phoenix TV, his tenure as a faculty member at Tsinghua University, and his time directing talk shows on Oriental TV.
Cao Jingxing was diligent and conscientious before his death. In his circle of friends, there are more than 400 news every day, involving various news at home and abroad.
It can be said that his circle of friends has become a presence similar to a "news agency", through which many people get the latest news and information.
And the old man loves news so much, and he is also influenced by his father.
Cao Jingxing's father, Cao Juren, was also a very prestigious person.
He is both a scholar and a journalist, and in the past he had contacts with Chen Duxiu and Qu Qiubai.
Cao Jingxing was nurtured by his father since childhood, and has a strong interest in journalism and learning.
After Cao Jingxing's death, I don't know how many media people remembered his life, especially after being diagnosed with cancer in 2020.
He got advice from many people to let him rest for a while, and he could no longer run to the place where something went wrong as soon as there was news, as he had in the past.
Reflecting on the past, He Liangliang said: "He was a journalist-obsessed man, and despite being in his seventies, he still approached all new things with an open heart. ”
Cao Jingxing had the idea of creating his own program in more than a year after joining Phoenix Satellite TV, and eventually he created the program "Current Affairs Talk".
However, this column did not attract much attention at first, and even the person in charge of the station did not believe it, so it was put in the middle of the night.
However, Cao Jingxing was full of confidence, and for this only fifteen-minute program, Cao Jingxing's sharp comments finally became a boutique column of Phoenix TV.
Cao Jingxing not only made Phoenix TV's annual advertising expenses reach a staggering figure of tens of millions, but also became "China's first commentator on current affairs", which can be described as extraordinary.
After Cao Jingxing knew that he had cancer, after receiving treatment, he did not recuperate quietly at home, but planned to do a popular science program called "Intestinal Long-term Solution" to let everyone know about cancer.
Five days before his death, he was still sharing his knowledge online, and it has been a year since his death, and his spirit still inspires everyone in the media.
Looking back on the life of the old man, with his unique hosting art and high professional quality, he has won the love of a wide range of audiences.
Throughout his life's journey, the trials and tribulations he endured showed his perseverance and courage.
