People who like to watch the news must be no stranger to the show "Economic Half Hour", especially the host Zhao He, whose upright appearance and deep voice have attracted many fans.
Colleagues often recall that every moment of cooperation with Zhao He is full of laughter and warmth. His passion for work and love for life infects everyone around him.
However, on January 10, 2022, the host Zhao He, who was loved by countless people, passed away due to cancer, and the news was like a cold wind in winter, which made people's hearts feel cold.
Zhao He's long-term partner, host Jing Yidan, couldn't hide his grief after learning the bad news.
As a tall boy who grew up in Beijing, Zhao He has been different since he was a child. The children around him were playful, but he became interested in recitation.
In high school life, Zhao He chose an unusual path - recitation.
At home on weekends, you can often hear his enthusiastic voice.
Towards the end of his high school career, Zhao He is faced with an important life decision. He realized that it is not enough to have the talent of recitation, but more importantly, to find a way to show himself and realize his self-worth.
It was at this time that he learned that the TV station was hiring, and among the many competitors, Zhao He stood out with his talent and appearance and won this precious opportunity.
Zhao He's success made the parents extremely proud and excited, and they saw a bright future for their son.
However, the cruelty of fate came at this time. When Zhao He was twenty years old, the sudden death of his father brought a huge blow to the family.
In order to make a living, he went to the railway department, where Zhao He lived an ordinary but fulfilling life.
He is also glad that he was able to provide stable support to his mother. Deep down, however, the love for recitation has never been extinguished.
As the days passed, he realized that maybe he should really be brave enough to follow his dreams and find a stage where he could shine.
In 1982, his mother's condition improved, and Zhao He was able to start again. So he picked up the book again and forgot to sleep and eat to supplement his knowledge.
His persistence soon paid off, and the acceptance letter from the Beijing Broadcasting Institute announced his new identity as a student.
For Zhao He, his college years were a precious period of dedication to his studies and active participation in various host competitions. This stage of the experience laid a solid foundation for his future career.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhao He graduated, he found his own place on Beijing TV with his talent and knowledge reserves.
However, Zhao He's journey did not stop, and only a year later, he joined CCTV.
On CCTV, "Comprehensive Economic Information" has become a stage for Zhao He to display his talents. Not satisfied with the status quo, he will bring forth the new in the program, and continue to explore and break through.

With the passage of time, "Economic Half Hour" has gradually become an indispensable column of CCTV with the joint efforts of Zhao He and the team.

In 2020, a sudden cancer diagnosis struck him and his family like a bolt from the blue.
In the face of this cruel reality, Zhao He did not tell the outside world the news of his illness, and chose to silently endure the torture caused by the illness, continue his work, and still shine on the stage of CCTV.
At home, Zhao He's wife is heartbroken every day for his strength.
Seeing that the people she loved loved were suffering from illness and still insisted on working, her heart was filled with endless pain and worry.
Zhao He's wife knows that the reason why he did this was because of his love for life, his responsibility for work, and his reluctance to give up his family.
