Preface
The death of the old artist Zhao Zhongxiang is a big blow to the Chinese people.
Although birth, old age, sickness and death are the norm of life, Zhao Zhongxiang is, after all, the mainstay of many "firsts" in the Chinese art circle.
The death of an old artist like him is a great loss for both the audience and the society and culture.
Three years have passed since the death of this cultural giant, and the grief should have faded.
But once Zhao Zhongxiang's will was exposed, it caused an uproar on the Internet.
When Zhao Zhongxiang was alive, he sighed many times that his wife had made a lot of sacrifices for her career.
But in Zhao Zhongxiang's will, he did not leave a single cent for his wife, and even his son, who has always loved and given public hope, did not get half of his son.
So Zhao Zhongxiang's family affairs were once again brought to the forefront, is there really an undercurrent of seemingly harmonious and beautiful families?
Love your grandson as your life
Zhao Zhongxiang and his wife Zhang Meizhu had only one child during their lifetime.
In fact, at the beginning, Zhao Zhongxiang was not in a hurry to have children after getting married, but put his career first.
Later, he felt a little lonely at home after returning home from work, so the couple planned to have a child.
After the birth of the child, Zhao Zhongxiang paid a lot of attention to him.
He named his son Zhao Fang, which means "Duan Fang", hoping that the child will walk straight and straight.
At that time, Zhao Zhongxiang himself had been working in the entertainment industry for many years, and he was already an old man in the circle.
But Zhao Zhongxiang is still willing to give his children the space to develop and grow freely, and does not require his son to follow his own old path and inherit the mantle.
The only son, Zhao Fang, did not live up to his parents' expectations, and he was invincible in his favorite IT industry.
Later, he was not only admitted to a well-known university in the UK, but also welcomed by teachers and classmates in the process of further study.
Not only that, but his son also works wholeheartedly and has achieved great success in his career.
At that time, Zhao Zhongxiang's family could be called harmonious and beautiful, and he was envious of others.
Zhao Zhongxiang himself is an old man in the circle, with a high rank and a loud voice, and no one in the circle does not call him a senior.
The wife of the family is mainly responsible for the housework and keeps the house in order.
The child is also very promising, and has become a rising star in the IT industry.
It is simply a model good family in China, and the old couple is very satisfied with their son.
But Zhao Zhongxiang later found out that his son was too obsessed with work, and he was nearly 30 years old and had not yet married.
Zhao Zhongxiang and his wife Zhang Meizhu also persuaded their son to think about major life events, but they were all rejected by his son on the grounds that he was busy with work.
At that time, Zhao Zhongxiang was very anxious, and later his friend Ni Ping came forward and helped his son introduce a girl.
Unexpectedly, the two people who met for the first time quickly saw each other, and the follow-up love and marriage were also smooth.
Soon after getting married, another big event was ushered in in the family.
In 2012, Zhao Zhongxiang's grandson was born.
Zhao Zhongxiang was very excited, and updated his grandson's photo on Weibo as soon as possible, and also affectionately called his grandson "Long'er".
Since he had a grandson, Zhao Zhongxiang has become an ordinary grandfather at home, and he is teasing his grandson at home with a loving face.
The arrival of this child can be regarded as giving Zhao Zhongxiang a lot of comfort in his heart, because the outside world was not peaceful at that time.
There is a lady named Rao Ying who is fighting a lawsuit with Zhao Zhongxiang, and the two sides are in a lot of trouble.
Only when he returned home to spend time with his grandson did Zhao Zhongxiang's heart be peaceful and tranquil.
He also enjoyed this time with his children very much, it can be said that this grandson was brought up by Zhao Zhongxiang since he was a child.
is also because of the intergenerational relatives, Zhao Zhongxiang and his grandson can almost be said to be inseparable.
This also explains why Zhao Zhongxiang asked in his will after his death to leave all the family property to his grandson.
With such a great love for his grandson, this will makes sense.
The pillar of the presiding world
There is always a Spring Festival Gala in the memory of a generation, which is about Ni Ping and Zhao Zhongxiang.
At that time, the two of them were superstars in the hosting industry, and the two of them appeared on the Spring Festival Gala, which made the joy of the New Year even thicker.
Zhao Zhongxiang, who has been extremely good in physique, appearance and voice since he was a child, seems to have been born to eat the bowl of rice.
At the age of 17, Zhao Zhongxiang, who had a try-out mentality to participate in the male announcer enrollment, stood out among thousands of people.
And his voice is also the first male voice in the history of Chinese broadcasting.
When he was 18 years old, he entered the Beijing TV station that many people dream of.
In the same year, there was just a National Day parade at that time, and Zhao Zhongxiang took the lead as soon as he joined the company, and at the age of 18, he took on the important task of broadcasting the National Day live broadcast.
And the first time he participated in this mission, he received unanimous praise from his superiors, and he subsequently presided over the National Day Celebration nine times.
At that time, the number of announcers in China was not large, and Zhao Zhongxiang was the leader of the boys.
I believe that in that era, many people's initial impression of the voice of a male announcer came from Zhao Zhongxiang.
Moreover, many historical events on the mainland were also recorded in his voice.
For example, when the first atomic bomb was successfully tested, it was Zhao Zhongxiang who broadcast this exciting good news to the whole country.
And now we watch "News Network" on time every day, and Zhao Zhongxiang's contribution is indispensable.
The original "News Network" used dubbing and broadcasting, and the host would not show up.
Later, the station leaders felt that this method was not close to the people enough, so they decided to let the host also appear and broadcast face-to-face with the audience.
At that time, this incident was a very innovative and revolutionary event, and the first news anchor to broadcast abroad was Zhao Zhongxiang.
And the highlights of his life don't stop there.
In 1979, at a time when relations between China and the United States were good, Premier Xiaoping led a delegation to visit the United States.
At that time, Zhao Zhongxiang also followed the entourage and became the first Chinese journalist to personally interview the president of the United States.
And because Zhao Zhongxiang has an amiable attitude, accurate and humorous words, and too strong professional strength, Zhao Zhongxiang took the lead when many important Chinese interviews with foreign countries.
And he has fulfilled his mission time and time again, and has successfully completed the task every time.
In addition to these serious news programs, the "Animal World" in many people's childhood memories is also closely related to Zhao Zhongxiang.
At that time, Zhao Zhongxiang was in charge of commenting "Animal World".
He later recalled that when he first aired it, he didn't think there was anything special about the show.
I thought it would be good to have a guide audience to protect the environment and love animals, but I didn't expect it to be welcomed by thousands of households.
And Zhao Zhongxiang's magnetic voice and wonderful pictures complement each other, and it also makes "Animal World" a national-level program.
Under the fame, there are also some other noisy voices entangled in Zhao Zhongxiang, and his acting career has become more and more controversial.
Scandal-ridden
Zhao Zhongxiang, as a famous person in the hosting circle, has naturally attracted the attention of others.
A scandal in 2004 almost brought Zhao Zhongxiang's career to an end.
At that time, a health care doctor came forward and took the initiative to accuse Zhao Zhongxiang, claiming that he was a person who was sanctimonious on the surface, but was actually a beast on the inside.
And this doctor named Rao Ying not only spoke wildly, but also did put out a lot of evidence.
According to Rao Ying, after she and Zhao Zhongxiang got to know each other, Zhao Zhongxiang liked to find her for physiotherapy.
Originally, the two got along very well, until one time Zhao Zhongxiang intended to mistreat her during the treatment.
After the matter was over, Zhao Zhongxiang also threatened her, asking her not to disclose the matter to a third person.
At that time, Zhao Zhongxiang was already a famous host in the country, but she herself was a little doctor who didn't have an accident, and the disparity between the identities of the two caused Rao Ying not to call the police at the first time.
And Zhao Zhongxiang is indeed quite charismatic, Rao Ying feels that she really likes this person.
This weird relationship has been pulling and pulling for seven years, and the threads are constantly broken.
During this period, Rao Ying once wanted to get out of this relationship, but Zhao Zhongxiang kept forcibly tying him back in the name of loving her.
Rao Ying felt deep pain in her heart, after all, she also had her own family.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and in the end, the relationship between the two was noticed by Rao Ying's husband.
Rao at the time
Ying went to Zhao Zhongxiang very painfully, and wanted to make him responsible, but she didn't expect Zhao Zhongxiang's attitude to make her heart cold.
Rao Ying was desperate and finally chose to expose this matter.
And she also took out an IOU with Zhao Zhongxiang's handwriting and several videotapes, claiming that this was the evidence of the two of them for seven years.
Although Rao Ying bit to death, Zhao Zhongxiang also refused to admit it, and the two made trouble all the way to the court.
Later, the court pronounced that Zhao Zhongxiang was wronged, and the tapes and handwriting were forged by Rao Ying with technology.
But Zhao Zhongxiang was still affected to a certain extent because of these things, and his reputation was also affected.
It was also from that time that he concentrated on raising his grandchildren at home, and almost did not appear on the show often.
Later, he fell in love with collecting antiques and name paintings, and the treasure collection at home was invaluable.
epilogue
Later, Zhao Zhongxiang died soon after being diagnosed with cancer, but who should these valuable family properties be entrusted to?
This made Zhao Zhongxiang in a dilemma.
As an old man in the circle, he knew too much about the separation of his wife because of money, so he had to be cautious.
He knew that after he left, his family property would definitely cause a bloody storm in the family, so he decided to leave all the family property to his grandson.
Although this seems very incomprehensible to others, it has his own reasons.
But if you leave it to your grandson, you can not only avoid the family fighting over money, but also ensure that the money will also be "Zhao" in the future.
I have to say that Zhao Zhongxiang made a good move.
His wife was also very understanding of this decision and gave a supportive attitude.
I have to say that Zhao Zhongxiang and Zhang Meizhu's ideas are very correct.
If the original harmonious family is torn apart because of the family property, it will indeed outweigh the losses.
He gave all his property to his grandson, which not only expressed his affection for his grandson, but also maintained the harmony of the family.
This is a perfectly correct idea from any point of view.
And Zhao Zhongxiang's death is also a pity for the Chinese people.
The pillars of the hosting industry have fallen, and his career is enough to be missed.
But Zhao Zhongxiang also left us a lot, left a happy family, and also left a good reputation in the hosting industry.
