Dou Wentao's stuttering overcome
When he was a child, Dou Wentao always stammered because of his congenital stuttering, and others couldn't hear what he was saying. This caused a lot of inconvenience to his life and also made him lack self-confidence.
Whenever Dou Wentao opened his mouth to speak, his brother would sneer and sometimes even slap him and sternly shut him up. Dou Wentao could only endure it silently, he knew that his brother also wanted him to correct his stuttering.
At first, Dou Wentao thought that stuttering was an incurable fate, and he could only let it mess up his life. Until one day, the Chinese teacher saw his lonely appearance and asked him what was wrong.
Dou Wentao confided in the teacher about his stuttering. The teacher said mildly: "Stuttering can be corrected by training, don't give up hope." The school is going to hold a speech contest, and I suggest you give it a try, it will be very helpful to boost your self-confidence.
Dou Wentao was a little hesitant at first, but with the encouragement of his teacher, he still mustered up the courage to sign up for the competition. He struggled to memorize his speeches in the hope of completing them fluently.
However, when he actually went on stage, seeing the audience, Dou Wentao was still so nervous that he stammered, fled the stage after only saying two words, and was embarrassed to pee his pants on the spot.
The next day at school, Dou Wentao didn't dare to look at anyone, he knew that everyone was snickering at his failure. Unexpectedly, the Chinese teacher still found him, recognized his good reading of the first two sentences, and encouraged him to make persistent efforts to represent the school in the municipal competition.
The teacher's encouragement gave Dou Wentao strength, and he decided to challenge himself again. This time, he worked hard to Xi situational control during his speech, and his family took turns acting as an audience member to help him adjust to the pressure of facing the audience.
After hard work, Dou Wentao finally successfully completed his speech in the municipal competition and won the championship.
This experience greatly boosted Dou Wentao's self-confidence and corrected his stuttering problem. Since then, he has had the courage to express himself on various occasions and has become an excellent presenter.
Many years later, Dou Wentao is still grateful to the teacher who encouraged him, without the teacher's support, there would be no later success.
The pain of first love is unforgettable
After going to college, Dou Wentao met his first girlfriend Li Mei (pseudonym). Li Mei has long hair, and the two dimples are cute when she laughs. She is warm and generous, and soon the two get acquainted with each other, and they are often tired of being together.
Dou Wentao experienced the beauty of love for the first time, and he tried every means to please Li Mei. Knowing that Li Mei likes cats, he traveled thousands of miles home during the holidays and took the cat to the school for dozens of hours by train to give it to Li Mei as a gift.
Receiving the surprise of Dou Wentao's cat, Li Mei was very happy. She took a photo of herself and the cat and sent it to Dou Wentao, and the two of them chatted nong. Dou Wentao felt that the relationship between the two was heating up, and he finally had the opportunity to develop a stable relationship.
However, at this moment, Li Mei suddenly said that she was going to break up, for unknown reasons. Dou Wentao asked the reason, Li Mei just shook her head and said nothing, and then quickly packed her luggage and left the school.
The sudden blow of the breakup made Dou Wentao difficult to accept. He was depressed all day long, and he couldn't let go of Li Mei's departure. He kept looking at the photos of the two, nostalgic for the sweet times in the past.
Dou Wentao's life became rotten, and his studies and Xi were all abandoned. He began to drink heavily, trying to forget the pain in the alcohol. But every time in the dead of night, he still cries in the bottom of his heart, sad why he lost Li Mei.
This first love experience became an incurable wound for Dou Wentao for many years. It also made him hesitate about his feelings, and he didn't dare to give his sincerity easily. Whenever he mentions this past, he still can't help but redden, because it was his most sincere love, but it ended in pain.
Guangdong Radio has worked hard for years
After graduating from university, Dou Wentao came south to Guangdong and found a job at Guangdong People's Radio.
When he first started, he was assigned to the Children's Channel as a host of children's programs. In this regard, Dou Wentao was a little disappointed, because he wanted to be a more serious host.
But he was not discouraged, but worked actively, hoping to gain recognition and promotion from his leadership through hard work.
In the 7 years he has been the host of children's programs, Dou Wentao has worked hard and is deeply loved by children. He will use a variety of voice intonations to match the effect of the show, and has won the nickname of "Brother Wentao".
Outside of work, he writes children's stories and occasionally works as a screenwriter. Although the work is hard, Dou Wentao doesn't care, because these are all opportunities to accumulate hosting experience.
He aspires to be an important presenter on the TV station and can do anything to do so.
During this period, Dou Wentao repeatedly expressed to the leaders his desire to transform into a serious news program host, but he was never approved. The leader believes that his current position is very suitable for the children's channel, and will not consider letting him change the guard for the time being.
Dou Wentao was a little disappointed by this, but he was not discouraged. Because as a host, he knows that any opportunity and platform is precious. Through these 7 years of work, he has accumulated the experience of speaking in front of people, and has also practiced the ability to react quickly, which are necessary abilities for him to dream of becoming a star host of a TV station.
So although the years of Guangdong Radio were not exactly as he imagined, Dou Wentao still kept his dream and worked hard and was positive in his post. He believes that as long as he doesn't give up, the opportunity will eventually come.
Hong Kong TV meets a confidant
In 1996, at the age of 29, Dou Wentao left Guangzhou and went to Hong Kong to join the newly established Phoenix Satellite TV.
Coming to the unfamiliar Hong Kong, Dou Wentao initially felt lost and at a loss. Fortunately, the company arranged a dormitory, and he quickly got acquainted with the two roommates, Xu Gehui and Lu Yu.
Xu Gehui is a passionate and unrestrained northern girl, and she can always drive the atmosphere of the room. Lu Yu is gentle and generous, and often takes care of the two of them. The three young people lived together, chatted about work, ideals, and life day and night, and soon became close friends.
The three had limited financial conditions and could only rent in a cramped rental house. Sometimes, to save money, they have to sleep in a bed. Dou Wentao smiled and said that he was like a sausage sandwiched between two slices of bread, and everyone laughed happily.
When they are away on business, they often stay in the same room to save money. The three of them have nothing to do with this, because their relationship is as pure as siblings. It's too familiar, but it doesn't have any idea of over-distance, just treat each other as brothers and sisters.
At work, the three of them often cooperate together to do their best in each program. Colleagues saw that they were inseparable, and sometimes thought they were a pair of lovers.
In fact, their relationship is very pure, and they just regard each other as family-like existence.
Day after day, they know each other inside and out. Anything can be said freely, without any concealment. This no-talk friendship is very valuable, and under the double run-in of life and work, their relationship has become stronger and stronger, and they have almost become destined confidants.
The years when we worked together at Hong Kong TV were Dou Wentao's happiest years. Xu Gehui and Lu Yu became important treasures in his life. Although he went his separate ways later, whenever he remembered those days, Dou Wentao would still cry, because it was his purest friendship, which was unforgettable in this life.
Faye Wong and other actresses have constant scandals
During his work in Hong Kong, Dou Wentao had scandals with many actresses. One of the most well-known is the scandal with the singer Faye Wong.
In 2002, not long after Faye Wong and Li Yapeng divorced, some media suddenly took photos of Dou Wentao and Faye Wong dating alone in Singapore. The two were eating in the restaurant, smiling and in an ambiguous atmosphere.
As soon as the photo came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the entertainment industry. Faye Wong was photographed dating a man for the first time after her divorce, and the object was still a well-known host in the mainland, and this bomb news immediately occupied major headlines.
In the face of everyone's suspicion, Dou Wentao hurriedly clarified that the two were just ordinary friends, but the public still couldn't believe his statement that Faye Wong was just friends.
In the following years, the scandal between Dou Wentao and Faye Wong continued to ferment. Every time the two appear in the same public place, public opinion will boil again, speculating whether there is an ambiguous relationship between them.
In addition to Faye Wong, Dou Wentao has also been photographed more than once intimate with other female artists. Every time, he denied it with a smile, saying that everyone thought too much and was just an ordinary friend.
But such rumors still had a negative impact on his reputation after all.
In fact, Dou Wentao's heart is not like the rumored playboy. In the face of these scandals, he was also helpless. However, the public's excessive attention to the artist's private life has made him feel exhausted over the years.
He began to grow tired of Vanity Fair and longed for a simple life.
Marriage is hopeless, and I am comfortable being single
Time flies, Dou Wentao has gone from a high-spirited young man to middle age. At 56 years old, he remains single.
In fact, Dou Wentao also longed for a happy married life when he was young. He once loved a girl deeply and wanted to spend his life with her. But in the end, due to various reasons, the two did not come together, which became a trauma that Dou Wentao was difficult to fully heal.
The first love that broke up suddenly in college made him more protective and autistic about his relationship from then on, and he didn't dare to give his heart as he wanted. In life, he behaves cheerfully and enthusiastically, but his inner loneliness and sensitivity have never disappeared.
In addition, frequent scandals also made him more and more sluggish in his feelings. He no longer believes in the so-called love at first sight, because too many suspicions and misunderstandings make sincere feelings nowhere to take root.
Marriage became out of reach for him, and he was afraid of being hurt again.
In fact, Dou Wentao is enthusiastic and generous by nature, and he has also thought about starting a family. But for various reasons, he has not been able to achieve happiness on the emotional road. Family and friends advised him to stop being picky and seize true love while there was still a chance.
But Dou Wentao still chooses to believe that his wife is not a random choice, and he must wait for someone who is 100% compatible with him. He is no longer in a hurry, but enjoys his current single life.
For him, life is also good for a person, and he can work and live as he wants. Even if he is occasionally lonely, when he thinks of the pain he once suffered, he still admonishes himself to be patient and not to give his sincerity easily.
Who knows? Maybe one day, she will appear. And now, Dou Wentao is happy to devote himself to work and friends, and live a free and free single life.
He believes that good things always happen when you least expect them.
A young confidant is the essence of life
Although the road of marriage and love is not very smooth, Dou Wentao does have another rare happiness, that is, he has made close friends.
While working at Hong Kong TV, he met two confidants, Xu Gehui and Lu Yu. The three of them live under the same roof because of their work, and they have become each other's closest confidants.
They are inseparable, and all their troubles and joys will be told to each other as soon as possible. Not to mention the road and car etiquette, they will take care of each other when they are sick. I also encourage each other at work, and share difficulties with each other.
This kind of brotherly warmth is especially precious to them living in a foreign land. When I was studying abroad and looking for a job, my friends were my home. The care of friends becomes their spiritual sustenance.
Because of this, their friendship has stood the test of time. Even if they go their separate ways later, gather less and leave more, that splendid youth memory still becomes each other's most valuable wealth.
Life is a long road, and it is not easy to meet a heartfelt confidant. For Dou Wentao, this pure friendship that transcends gender is the happiest essence of his life.
When the emotional road repeatedly hits a wall, he will understand the value of himself better. In the face of worldly misunderstandings, he also chose to believe in this sincerity. No matter how the external changes are, the feelings of confidants will always exist in his heart, always warming his heart.
Relationships and careers are not satisfactory, but as long as there is a confidant by your side, life will not be lonely. It is the luck of my life to meet you.
