1. Time flies, looking back at Kan Lijun's life process, it started here!
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Kan Lijun has entered the year of her sixtieth birthday. When we look back on the road she has traveled, we seem to be able to see the ups and downs and struggles in the vicissitudes of life, and these hardships and challenges have also created her brilliant and extraordinary achievements.
When she was young, she was honored as "China's No. 1 host", and she was on the highest stage of CCTV's Spring Festival Gala three times, and quickly became popular with her unique and innovative hosting style, becoming the brightest star of that era.
However, just as her career was reaching its peak, rumors and suspicions quietly grew. Some began to question whether her success stemmed from "nepotism", and even her superiors put pressure on her to avoid controversy over her fiery "flame".
As a result, Kan Lijun was ostracized by her peers and superiors, and was forced to leave her beloved stage, and her career fell into a trough.
However, even in the most difficult days of middle age, Kan Lijun never gave up her persistent pursuit of her dreams and endless desire for her career. As a woman with strong perseverance, she always cherishes her dreams and moves forward bravely.
Second, an ordinary family gave birth to an extraordinary her
Kan Lijun was not born into a wealthy family, she came from an ordinary working family and grew up in a quiet town in Heilongjiang Province. There are two older brothers in the family, and although his father held a leadership position in the factory, he always stood firm and taught his children to always remember the family motto "The public is the greatest, never forget".
In such a simple and hard-working family atmosphere that pays attention to moral cultivation, Kan Lijun has cultivated the excellent qualities of integrity, kindness, diligence and studious since childhood.
In 1974, standing out among many competitors, Kan Lijun was admitted to the Provincial Quyi Troupe with excellent results. However, over the next three years of her studies, she had hoped to be able to make a big impact after graduation, but suffered her first setback – she was denied a job offer, reportedly because someone had fraudulently used her place.
In the face of such injustice, although Kan Lijun felt very aggrieved, she did not give up her dream because of this, but decided to continue to forge ahead on the road of art.
In that youthful years full of dreams, the young Kan Lijun sprouted extraordinary ambitions in an ordinary family environment, and she bravely moved forward to the future, laying a solid foundation for her emergence in the entertainment industry.
Although the road ahead is tortuous and bumpy, she has never hesitated at all, and has always walked firmly on the road of struggle.
III. Everything originated from the host of the Spring Festival Gala that caused a huge sensation
Back in 1979, Kan Lijun, who was only 21 years old at the time, decided to go to the south to perform, and in just three months, she had mastered the local language and customs.
In the course of each performance, she was able to skillfully use dialect to establish a cordial interaction with the audience, thus winning the warm cheers and thunderous applause of the audience.
This wonderful performance opened the door for her to host and became the starting point of her brilliant hosting career in the future.
At the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala the following year, Kan Lijun appeared for the first time as an independent host, when she was only 21 years old. At the beginning, she politely and humbly greeted "Good evening, everyone", and the audience expected that she would proceed in the traditional way of hosting.
However, the next scene left everyone dumbfounded—she suddenly blurted out "dear", an intimate title that was particularly bold in the social environment of the time.
As we all know, in the 80s of the last century, people's ideas were relatively conservative, and the use of such intimate titles in public is undoubtedly a break from the norm.
Suddenly, the audience was in an uproar, and some people even directly accused Kan Lijun of being too pretentious and behaving debauched.
In fact, Kan Lijun does not have any bad intentions, she just hopes to bring a new audio-visual feast to the audience through this novel hosting method, so that they can feel a different kind of joyful atmosphere.
As it turned out, her unique hosting style impressed the audience present, sparked a wide range of discussions, and became famous overnight.
Since then, Kan Lijun's popularity has continued to rise, rising rapidly, and has appeared on the stage of CCTV Spring Festival Gala for three consecutive years, hosting the highest standard party. Her hosting strength has been highly recognized and praised by the industry, and she has become a leader among first-line hosts.
IV. When she was suppressed at the peak of her career, did she choose to leave or return?
Time flies, Kan Lijun has stood on the stage of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala for three consecutive years, hosting the highest standard party. This fully proves that her hosting strength has been widely recognized and affirmed by the industry, and her career has reached its peak.
However, at this critical moment, Kan Lijun was suppressed and excluded like never before.
All unpleasantness begins with malicious speculation and doubts among peers. Some people silently spread rumors in the dark, claiming that Kan Lijun was able to appear on the main stage of the Spring Festival Gala only because of "nepotism", rather than relying on real strength and talent.
Kan Lijun knew that those gossips were groundless, however, deep down in her heart, she suffered a huge trauma and a heavy blow to her self-esteem.
What is even more unbearable is the ruthless suppression from the superiors. Whenever a program invited her to be the host, the unit leader always refused mercilessly, the reason was that "I don't want her to show off her talent outside".
Kan Lijun's mood at that time can be imagined, extremely disappointed and angry.
With the passage of time, the accusations and slanders against Kan Lijun in the regiment intensified, and the higher-level leaders also tried to suppress this "rising bird" by various means and make him return to the state of "keeping to himself".
So, in the 1990s, Kan Lijun broke out into a fierce conflict with the leaders of the unit, and was finally banned from continuing to host any programs, so she had no choice but to temporarily bid farewell to the stage and change her career to the film and television industry.
Just when Kan Lijun's career fell to the bottom, CCTV seemed to have insight into her predicament and transferred her from her original unit. However, after only two months of working at CCTV, Kan Lijun resolutely chose to return to her original unit and was quickly promoted to deputy head of the regiment.
made this seemingly "capricious" decision because Kan Lijun knows that her popularity and influence come from the grassroots and from the recognition of the audience, and CCTV alone cannot be sustained for a long time.
She would rather go back to the starting point and gradually accumulate popularity from the grassroots level than easily abandon the solid foundation she has built over the years.
Fifth, the missed love, the strict criteria for choosing a mate, lead to the regret of having no children and no daughters
For Kan Lijun, the development of her career is of course crucial, but her personal marriage cannot be ignored. However, she has always had an overly strict attitude and high expectations when dealing with emotional issues, which made her unmarried and childless for the rest of her life, leaving her with endless regrets.
Before becoming famous, Kan Lijun's mate selection criteria were reasonable. However, when she achieved certain achievements in her career, the mate selection conditions became extremely harsh, and almost all the opposite sex was rejected.
Once upon a time, the sincere feelings of an ordinary worker were vented, however, his lover Kan Lijun responded to him mercilessly - just because the other party's economic situation and social status did not meet her expectations, she abandoned this innocent person like a piece of paper, and did not show the slightest mercy.
In the face of all this, Kan Lijun's family was worried, and repeated persuasion could not change her mind. When the parents are old, their greatest wish is to see their daughter get rid of the regrets in her heart and find a virtuous husband to spend the rest of her life with.
However, Kan Lijun turned a deaf ear to this, and still went her own way, always categorically refusing to go on a blind date.
As the number of suitors gradually decreased, she also knew deep down that that precious true love might be far away from her forever. However, Kan Lijun is not a ruthless person.
Although she has no children under her knees, she treats her nephews and nieces as her own, and embraces them tightly in her arms with motherly love.
Time flies, time flies, although Kan Lijun's career has gone through twists and turns, she has never given up the pursuit of ideals. By the 2000 years, she had entered the stage of life at the age of 41 and ushered in a new chapter in her career.
Sadly, however, the opportunity for true love never seemed to come to her life again.
