On a sunny and warm afternoon, 51-year-old Guan Tong sat on a comfortable sofa at home and closed his eyes to take a nap. She had a satisfied smile on her face and was surrounded by an atmosphere of serenity and serenity.
As a senior CCTV host, although Guan Tong does not appear on major stages as frequently as other colleagues in the workplace, she is conscientious about her work and loves this profession.
Guan Tong never puts fame and fortune first, she cherishes ordinary and happy family life more. Dressed in home clothes, she played with an old photo album in her hand, reminiscing about the bits and pieces with her husband and son.
In the album, the warm group photos tell their happy life.
"Mom, what are you looking at?" A childish voice interrupted Guan Tong's memories, she looked sideways, and saw her 9-year-old son walk in, with an innocent smile on his little face.
Guan Tong rubbed his son's hair dotingly, and sighed with satisfaction that this child was very sensible, and never complained that she was busy with work and had no time to accompany her.
Guan Tong knows that all this is due to her considerate husband, who uses wisdom to teach his son carefully, so that the child can understand his mother's contribution from an early age. As a mother, she is sincerely grateful for her husband's support behind her.
This year happens to be their 10th wedding anniversary, and Guan Tong rarely shared the happy moment with her husband on social media. The image of an intimate husband and wife is enviable.
Today's Guan Tong no longer has too high career expectations, she focuses more on family life, and does her best to play the role of a virtuous wife and a loving mother.
Artistic vision
Guan Tong's ancestral home can be traced back to Fengxian District, Shanghai, but she was born into an ordinary family in Beijing's Dongcheng District. Her father is a senior engineer and her mother is a chemical expert, Guan Tong is the youngest daughter in the family, who has been cared for and pampered by her parents and brother since she was a child, and her childhood life is carefree.
Unlike his heroic brother, Guan Tong has given people the impression of being introverted and shy since he was a child. At home, she rarely takes the initiative to talk to people, and always stays quietly by the sidelines.
It wasn't until she made new friends after school that this shy little girl gradually opened up her inner world and became lively and cheerful.
Although their personalities are different, Guan Tong and his brother are very different in terms of interests and hobbies. The elder brother inherited his parents' love for science and engineering, while Guan Tong has a unique eye and has a different love for art and literature since he was a child.
Whenever she comes home from school, she can always be seen happily humming beautiful melodies she learned from TV.
Once, after Guan Tong participated in the hosting of the campus art evening, he couldn't put down the feeling of affinity in front of the stage. Since then, she has secretly made a wish, hoping to stand on the stage of CCTV like the popular host Ni Ping in the future.
The family saw that she was so fascinated by music, and they did not hesitate to buy a piano for her, but who knew that she insisted on embarking on a new path as a host.
Gain experience
A chance encounter in high school made Guan Tong take a big step away from his dream of being a host. One day in her third year of high school, she was fortunate to participate in the recording of a CCTV program, although she only interviewed young painters from Taiwan as a non-professional host, but this short work experience undoubtedly deepened her yearning and longing for the hosting career.
After the college entrance examination, Guan Tong was admitted to Beijing Broadcasting Institute (now Communication University of China) as he wished, and became classmates with famous anchors such as Luo Jing, Kang Hui, and Bai Yansong. In this environment of rare opportunities, she opened a new chapter on the road to hosting.
At the beginning of enrollment, because Guan Tong already had some hosting experience and her appearance was also extremely outstanding, the school seconded her to serve as a reporter on the spot, responsible for the filming of agricultural themes.
For ordinary people, this is an excellent opportunity for development given by God, but Guan Tong felt extremely panicked and anxious at that time, for fear that he would not be able to take on such a heavy responsibility, and finally had to give up this job.
Although this experience ended in failure, it did not break Guan Tong's determination. After returning to school, she redoubled her efforts and was determined to make up for her past regrets. In her sophomore year, Guan Tong also participated in the filming of her first film and television work "Youth Testimony", cooperating with Faye Wong's ex-husband Li Yapeng, which further enriched her knowledge and experience.
With his unremitting efforts during the university, Guan Tong's comprehensive quality has been comprehensively improved, and his introverted and shy personality is also a perfect match for the elegant and calm temperament that the host should have.
After graduating, Beijing Cable TV Station knew Zhu Zhu and hired her to host "Happy Weekend" and other columns, and since then she has a big stage to show herself. With her outstanding performance, she soon attracted the attention of CCTV.
Stand your ground
In 1997, this year was an important turning point in Guan Tong's life. After years of hard work, she finally relied on her excellent professional ability and outstanding conditions to be recognized by CCTV and transferred to the opera music department.
After entering the new environment of CCTV, Guan Tong was like a fish in water, and soon integrated into the life here. Not only can she continue to pursue her career as a host, but she can also get in touch with the music field she has loved for a long time, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Guan Tong shined on the stage of CCTV and showed his talented side. With her profound singing skills and steady hosting style, she has hosted many high-profile programs, such as "New Year's Concert", "Happy Heroes", "Heroes", "Very 6+1", etc., and quickly became a new star host.
In addition to these fixed programs, Guan Tong also has the courage to challenge himself and frequently hosts various major celebrations and evening activities, such as the 97 Hong Kong Return Gala, the China-Korea Song Club, the Youth Song Competition, etc., which can be said to show his talents in an all-round way.
What is surprising is that although Guan Tong is a powerful person on the same stage or even surpassing the popular hosts Dong Qing and Li Sisi in terms of hosting ability and personal image, she has always been a low-key person and does not seem to be keen on fame and fortune.
Therefore, although she has been working on CCTV for many years, she only appeared on the stage of the high-profile Spring Festival Gala once in 2017, and only hosted the program of the Harbin branch venue.
may have seen that Guan Tong has regrets about the Spring Festival Gala, and CCTV specially tailored "Countdown to the Spring Festival Gala", "Young in the Spring Festival Gala" and other related programs for her, hoping to give appropriate compensation.
In general, since Guan Tong entered CCTV, his career has maintained a steady upward trend, and the prospects are infinitely broad.
Questioned
Although his career has been smooth sailing, Guan Tong's love life has been shrouded in fog, often causing suspicion and criticism from the outside world. For example, for a while, because she was tight-lipped about her marital status, she was misrepresented as a "homosexual".
The most concerning thing is the close friendship between her and her friend Han Hong. The two have frequent interactions and close relationships, which makes the outside world begin to wonder if there is something else going on between them.
Rumors are boiling on the Internet, and some people even broke the wild news that "Guan Tong and Han Hong have registered their marriage in the United States".
As soon as this blockbuster news was exposed, it immediately set off a monstrous wave on the Internet. As a party to Guan Tong, she suddenly fell into a situation of being hotly discussed and questioned by everyone, and her personal image and reputation also suffered a heavy blow.
Faced with layers of rumors, Guan Tong and Han Hong had to come forward at the same time to clarify the truth to the public.
Han Hong first made it clear that she has not stepped into the palace of marriage at present, which is inconsistent with the rumors. And Guan Tong bluntly announced: "Han Hong and I are just two close friends who are like brothers and sisters, not another kind of relationship called by the outside world."
In order to more forcefully refute the questioning voices, Guan Tong, who never talks about private matters in public, finally resolutely revealed the truth of his marriage. She revealed that in fact, as early as 2012, she had married a business elite and entered the palace of marriage.
The husband surnamed Zhao has a prominent family background, and his personal career has also made great achievements, and his family is well-off. In order to avoid too much attention, the wedding of the two was held in a low-key and secret manner, without alarming the public's attention.
In the second year after marriage, the 42-year-old Guan Tong bravely decided to become a mother and gave birth to a healthy and lively son for the family. Since then, this low-key couple has been inseparable and intimate.
The current Guan Tong is always low-key and humble about some trivial things in life, and she has no shelves, which also makes some people mistakenly think that she is single in the past, which eventually led to scandals and rumors with Han Hong.
Fortunately, after the joint explanation of both sides, the turmoil was gradually calmed down.
Although she rarely shares her family life in public, Guan Tong is actually a very loving mother. She is sincerely grateful to her husband for his education behind her, so that although her 9-year-old son is still young, he has no complaints about his mother's busy career and has no time to accompany him.
Not long ago, on the occasion of their 10th wedding anniversary, Guan Tong rarely shared a happy picture of a family of three cutting a cake on social media.
It can be seen that now she no longer has too many expectations for her career as before, and she has put more energy into family life, striving to play the role of a virtuous wife and a loving mother.
