2. Tell the romantic love story of Mr. Li Yong and his wife, Ms. Harvin
When it comes to Mr. Li Yong's wife, Ms. Harwin, it is impossible to ignore the innocent love story of the lovers during their time at school. They are all classmates who were admitted to Radio and Television University from Ningxia, and they gradually developed deep feelings in the process of getting to know each other.
Mr. Li Yong's deep affection for Ms. Harvin is reflected in every subtlety of life. From time to time, during a break in class, he quietly sketched the profile of the girl he liked in his notebook, sketching her clear facial features again and again, and capturing every detail of her with full attention, and the concentration and dedication were moving.
The students in the class were all moved by Mr. Li Yong's persistence and speculated about the secret in his heart.
Since graduating from college, the two young people have bravely embraced the serious challenges of a long-distance relationship. Li Yong was assigned to work on the distant Xinjiang TV station, while Ha Wen successfully stepped into the door of CCTV. In this long-distance relationship, it was as unbearable as suffering. Li Yong always grasps every gap and expresses his deep thoughts about Harvin with affectionate words; And Haven did not hesitate to use his precious rest time to travel thousands of miles to Xinjiang to meet his beloved.
Perhaps moved by their steadfastness, not long after, Li Yong finally got the favor of fate, was transferred back to CCTV, reunited with the love of his heart, Harvin, and became a colleague. However, at this time, Harvin was already an important leader in CCTV, and in order to avoid causing unnecessary embarrassment, they always maintained an appropriate distance in the workplace.
In addition to their busy work, they returned to the role of lovers and worked together to create the popular variety show "Lucky 52" that swept the country, and their careers are thriving. With his outstanding hosting talent, Li Yong rose rapidly and became a household name as the "first brother of CCTV". As a director, Ha Wen, although he works silently behind the scenes, has always been Li Yong's strongest backing.
Until the last moment of his life, Harvin still adhered to his original intention for Li Yong. Even after Li Yong's death, she still took care of her daughter's life as always, and never considered entering the palace of marriage again. This eternal love undoubtedly proves the deep affection between the lovers.
3. Li Yong's anti-cancer experience in the 17 months before his death
What makes people sigh is that just as Li Yong's career was climbing to the peak, a sudden disaster came, ruthlessly depriving the "first brother of CCTV" of his life.
On October 25, 2018, Li Yong's wife Ha Wen sadly announced on social platforms: "Never lose my love." Just a few words, but all the people who care and love Li Yong fell into endless shock and sorrow.
It turned out that as early as a year ago in 2017, Li Yong, who was wearing many positions, was unfortunately diagnosed with cancer during a routine physical examination. In the face of such a heavy blow, he resolutely resigned from his position as the host of CCTV, took his family to the United States, and embarked on a long and arduous road to fight cancer.
However, even in the United States, which has the world's top medical resources, after 17 months of systematic treatment, this fatal disease ruthlessly took Li Yong's life at the age of 52. This host, who was once loved by the audience, died young and left us forever.
Over the past 18 months of her long treatment journey, the world seems to have completely drowned out the news of Li Yong. In fact, Li Yong never revealed the slightest information about his illness to his parents and friends, and they still simply believed that his son had only left his family for a short time to live in the United States, completely unaware that he was fighting a fierce battle with cancer. Until the end, Li Yong was never able to achieve the final reunion with his elderly parents, and his beloved wife Ha Wen was unable to fulfill her wish to let her in-laws see her son for the last time.
When I think of the last 18 months that this once energetic presenter spent under the torment of illness and treatment, everyone who knew him well could not help but feel deep sorrow and regret for him.
Fourth, the body was not returned to China for burial, causing controversy
When the news of Li Yong's death spread all over the Internet, it immediately caused a sensation. According to traditional Chinese customs, no matter where the deceased wandered during his lifetime, the body of the deceased should be returned to his homeland for rest. However, Li Yong's body was directly placed in the United States, which made many people feel extremely regretful and confused.
Li Yong's parents both live in China, but after the death of their son, they were unable to see him for the last time, which undoubtedly brought them endless pain and regret. Some netizens even bluntly accused, believing that Li Yong's wife Ha Wen deliberately placed her body overseas in order to avoid inheriting her husband's property, and this kind of remarks are like "traitors" and "unfilial sons" and other vicious words spread wantonly on the Internet.
In fact, Li Yong's farewell ceremony was held in a funeral home in New York, and although the ceremony process was complete, the overall atmosphere was extremely simple, and only eight relatives and friends attended the whole process. And the closest parents were unable to witness his last face, which made all the viewers who supported Li Yong feel frustrated and regretful.
The media interviewed the funeral home's staff about the matter, and learned that despite the small scale, the entire ceremony process was still very thorough. Many netizens have said that it is really surprising that Li Yong and his wife chose to die in a foreign country when they were at the peak of their careers and when they became famous. Some people even sighed: "After all, I paid my life by mistake!" There are many discussions on the Internet about the behavior of the two, and doubts have come and gone.
Fifth, the truth is revealed to resolve doubts
When Li Yong and his wife encountered all kinds of suspicions and gossip on the Internet, they remained silent and never gave any explanation or defense to this. It wasn't until years later that his wife, Harvin, could no longer tolerate the public's misunderstanding of them and decided to reveal the true nature of the incident, thus completely subverting people's previous misconceptions.
This is why Li Yong pleaded with his wife to put himself on American soil, even if he did not fulfill his wish to relive with his loved ones, and he could not even see each other for the last time. As a filial son, Li Yong's heart is full of deep apologies for not being able to give enough company to his parents when they are alive; Therefore, on the occasion of his death, he did not want to bring more grief and pain to the two old people.
After learning the sad news of the death of their beloved son, the elderly parents at home were naturally grief-stricken and remorseful.
At the moment of learning the truth, those netizens who had misunderstood Li Yong and his wife all felt extremely regretful and ashamed. They didn't expect that all the disputes would stem from a wish of Li Yong before his death and his entrustment to his family.
During his lifetime, he performed countless touching stories on the screen, however, who would have expected that in the last moments of his life, he showed the same moving scene with his own actions.
After Ms. Harwin's elaboration, everyone finally understood what was going on, and they were ashamed of their past words and actions. Li Yong answered all the doubts one by one in a unique way, and once again showed all those who cared for him what it means to have a frank and free attitude towards life.
