People sometimes don't take themselves too seriously, otherwise they will be disappointed.
Rui Chenggang, the former CCTV host, was too arrogant to play a good hand.
Rui Chenggang was born in an artistic family, and his family only has two children, him and his sister.
When they were born, their parents decided to give them the surname Huang and the surname Rui, which were the surnames of their parents.
Rui Chenggang's father, Huang Jiazuo, is a literary and artistic worker who walked out of the Central Academy of Drama.
He used the name of the character he wrote to give his son a resounding name called Chenggang.
It's not just a name, it's an expectation that he'll be as resilient as steel.
Rui Chenggang grew up in the dormitory of the Provincial Department of Culture since he was a child, and his childhood exuded a strong literary atmosphere.
Rui Shumin is his mother, and she is also a person with special skills.
She is not only an artist, but also a guide for Rui Chenggang's artistic path.
From an early age, Rui Shumin paid special attention to children's art education, and often maintained close contact with teachers to ensure that children's education is taken care of in the best way.
When Rui Chenggang was growing up, whether it was fishing, swimming, or any other hobby, his parents would always support him unreservedly.
Because his parents are both literary and artistic workers, Rui Chenggang and his sister almost did not miss any high-level theatrical performances.
And Rui Chenggang's academic Xi has always been the most top-notch.
He started in elementary school at the model middle school in Anhui Province, which is a dream school for many students.
Rui Chenggang's English teacher has witnessed the whole process of his transformation from an ordinary student to an English master.
From time to time, she praised Rui Chenggang's fluent spoken English in public, which was both an honor and a spur for Rui Chenggang.
Rui Chenggang was able to read the original English book "Lady Chatterley's Lover" independently in the third grade.
Since elementary school, with the encouragement of his mother and the advice of his primary school teacher, he has started to Xi learn English in depth.
When Rui Chenggang was in high school, his science grades were often unsatisfactory, but his liberal arts scores have always remained at a high score.
When the college entrance examination approached, Rui Chenggang set his sights on top universities in China, such as China Foreign Affairs University and Nanjing University.
His homeroom teacher, out of concern for him, suggested that he also apply for a private university for the sake of insurance.
But this suggestion is obviously to "look downon" Rui Chenggang's strength.
After all, he became the champion of liberal arts in Hefei back then.
However, this result surprised Rui Chenggang's family, and his sister even thought that the results were wrong.
But the facts are in front of him, and Rui Chenggang also entered the Foreign Affairs University with his excellent results.
Highlight reel moments
After Rui Chenggang stepped into the Foreign Affairs University, he quickly stood out.
His level of English, especially for academic purposes, has made him one of the best in the eyes of the crowd.
Interestingly, in order to motivate themselves, Rui Chenggang's classmates even pasted a small note on the bedside that exceeded Rui Chenggang.
However, Rui Chenggang is not satisfied with his achievements in the academic field alone.
There was a retired teacher who was so impressed with him that he encouraged him to actively participate in various activities outside of school.
It is also because of this all-round development that Rui Chenggang has become a star in the school.
In 1998, Rui Chenggang won the second place in the National College Student English Speech Competition, and then represented China in the London International Speech Competition.
Rui Chenggang became the only Asian player on this world-class stage, and eventually finished fourth.
Despite not winning the title, he was pleased with his performance, especially after beating the players from the United States and Australia.
Although Rui Chenggang benefited from the academic training at the Foreign Affairs University, he had his own views on the education system.
He believes that if given the opportunity to choose again, he would prefer to choose a comprehensive university that offers a liberal arts education for a more comprehensive humanities training.
During his four years at university, Rui Chenggang thought highly of himself for his excellent performance and grades.
Blogs are hotly debated
In 2007, a blog written by Rui Chenggang titled "Inviting Starbucks Out of the Forbidden City" caused heated discussions across the country.
The article points out that Starbucks' presence in the Forbidden City is an erosion of Chinese culture.
Rui Chenggang's words are like a fire, quickly spreading among young people.
They see more than just a blog, but a maintenance of their own cultural identity.
This article stimulates people's national emotions and makes the public begin to re-examine the relationship between foreign culture and local culture.
Starbucks' store in the Forbidden City has also become a point of contention.
Faced with growing pressure from public opinion, this international coffee had to make a compromise in the Forbidden City.
The result of this incident is seen by many as a kind of defense of the dignity of Chinese culture.
Rui Chenggang's name rose to prominence because of this cultural controversy.
His fan base has skyrocketed to more than 500,000 and he has even been hailed as a national hero by some.
This success not only gave him more attention, but also greatly satisfied his vanity.
However, Rui Chenggang did not stop there.
Influenced by the Starbucks incident, in 2011, he published a blog about the Forbidden City again.
This time, Rui Chenggang pointed out that the Jianfu Palace in the Forbidden City has been transformed into a top-level clubhouse for the enjoyment of the top rich.
The article once attracted public attention, but then the investigation confirmed that it was nothing more than a hype and could not be further from the truth.
Compared to the Starbucks incident, the hype did not cause much of a stir.
It did not have the same social impact as the former, nor did it arouse enthusiasm for cultural preservation.
In the aftermath of the incident, the public began to question Mr. Rui's motives and methods.
But Rui Chenggang didn't think there was anything wrong with his actions, and he later sent himself to prison for his vanity.
受贿入狱
In June 2014, a sudden storm swept through the corridors of CCTV.
Guo Zhenxi was investigated for bribery, and CCTV producer Tian Liwu was also involved.
This news exploded inside CCTV.
And Rui Chenggang, as a CCTV celebrity, experienced unprecedented panic and anxiety in the face of this sudden storm.
During that time, he constantly calculated in his heart, fearing that he would be implicated in this turmoil.
Every news report, every footsteps outside the door, made Rui Chenggang tremble.
As time passed, Rui Chenggang began to gradually let his guard down, thinking that he might have really escaped the catastrophe.
But just as he began to relax, the personnel of the procuratorate suddenly appeared in the CCTV building, and their target was directly aimed at Rui Chenggang.
At this moment, Rui Chenggang's world collapsed, and all his dreams and ambitions disappeared in an instant.
On the day of his trial, Rui Chenggang completely collapsed.
He burst into tears in the courtroom, and the appearance of crying was heartbreaking.
Rui Chenggang, who was once strong and arrogant and had no one in his eyes, no longer exists, and is replaced by an ordinary person who feels deep remorse.
After being released from prison, Rui Chenggang faced more doubts and challenges.
There are rumors that he was hired by a Hong Kong real estate company with an annual salary of 3 million, and the news has caused heated discussions among the public.
Rui Chenggang, who is already in his forties, has a disgraceful past, is there really anyone who will give him a chance?
But it is undeniable that Rui Chenggang's talent has never disappeared, all he needs is to let go of his past self, face himself honestly, and do things steadfastly.
If he can do that, the rest of his life may still be full of excitement and achievement.
