First, Lao Chunyan's dream of being a journalist began in childhood. In that era when television was still a rarity, Xiao Chunyan developed a strong interest in journalism. She often sits in front of the TV with a small bench, watching news programs intently, and her little hands unconsciously imitate the gestures of the anchor.
Whenever she sees reporters rushing to the front line to report on current affairs, her eyes always shine with longing. As she grew older, Lao Chunyan's ambition became more and more determined.
She knows that to be a good journalist, you need not only solid writing skills, but also broad knowledge and a broad vision. To this end, she has put in extraordinary efforts in her studies.
In high school, Chunyan studied without sleep or food, and her grades climbed steadily. She not only studied hard in textbooks, but also read all kinds of newspapers and magazines extensively, and worked hard to improve her overall quality.
The hard work paid off, and with excellent results, Lao Chunyan was finally admitted to the coveted journalism department of Fudan University as she wished. The moment she stepped onto campus, she felt extremely excited, as if she was one step closer to her dream of being a journalist.
During her time at Fudan University, Lao Chunyan was hungry for knowledge. She not only studied professional courses seriously, but also actively participated in various practical activities, laying a solid foundation for her future career.
She joined the school's journalism club and used her spare time to cover campus news and write reports. Each practice excites her and makes her more determined to make her career choice.
Second, Lao Chunyan in college always flashed with longing and enthusiasm for the future in her eyes. She firmly believes that as long as she works hard, one day she will become an excellent journalist and spread the truth in her own way and influence more people.
This perseverance and love has become an important driving force to support her through difficult years. After graduating from university, Lao Chunyan did not choose to work in a well-known media in Beijing, but returned to her hometown and interned at Shanghai TV Station.
She is well aware that TV work requires solid basic skills and rich experience. Starting from the most basic editor, Chunyan is diligent and hardworking, never complaining about the hard work.
Lao Chunyan, who is new to the workplace, has a little nervousness in her eyes, but more of an expectation for the future. She is the first to arrive at the office and the last to leave every day, working hard to learn various business skills.
Whether it's putting together a press release or assisting with the recording of a show, she puts her heart and soul into doing her best. This seriousness and dedication were quickly recognized by colleagues and superiors.
With solid professional knowledge and professionalism, Lao Chunyan quickly stood out and became an excellent program planner and host. From "News Report" to "Oriental Night News", to "News Perspective", "Oriental 110" and "News Observation", the programs she hosts are becoming more and more popular, and her reputation among peers and viewers is getting better and better.
In front of the camera, Lao Chunyan is always calm and calm, able to accurately grasp the key points of each news event, and convey the news to the audience with sharp and warm language.
Her eyes are firm and her tone is calm, which makes people feel her love and sense of responsibility for journalism. In the program, she not only presented the beginning and end of the incident, but also dug deeper into the social significance behind it, and interpreted the responsibilities and responsibilities of journalists in her own way.
Third, as time went by, Lao Chunyan gradually became a pillar of Shanghai TV, and her career also reached a new height. Her hard work has paid off, and she has won many important awards in the industry, becoming an "intellectual, elegant, and powerful" female anchor in the eyes of the audience.
However, behind the success is endless bitterness and dedication. In order to ensure the quality of the program, Lao Chunyan always prepares carefully, from topic selection to interviews, to editing the film, every link is meticulous.
At the recording site, her professional and dedicated attitude won the respect and praise of her colleagues. Just when her career was thriving, life gave her a problem. Faced with her upcoming marriage and possible family responsibilities, Lao Chunyan began to think about how to balance her career and personal life, which became an important turning point in her life.
In 2004, 32-year-old Lao Chunyan met his other half at the peak of his career. The man, who also graduated from Fudan University, shares the same passion for journalism.
The two hit it off at first sight and quickly fell in love. After a short period of love, they entered the palace of marriage hand in hand. Lao Chunyan's eyes flashed with happiness, and she thought that she had finally found the perfect balance between career and love.
However, life after marriage is not as sweet as imagined. The busy schedule of work makes it difficult for Lao Chunyan to take care of her family, and the rapid development of her career makes her unwilling to give up her hard-won opportunities.
Every time she came home late at night from overtime and saw her husband's lonely figure, she would feel a wave of guilt in her heart. She began to think frequently: Should I give up my career and focus on my family? After careful consideration, Lao Chunyan made a decision that surprised many: to separate from her husband.
She plans to stay in Shanghai to continue her career, while her husband stays in his hometown to work. This decision undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on both parties, but it is gratifying that the husband has given full understanding and support.
Fourth, when Lao Chunyan announced this decision to her parents, her parents' faces were full of confusion and worry. In their opinion, their daughter chose to separate just after getting married, which is tantamount to self-destruction of the marriage.
The mother persuaded with tears in her eyes: "Now that you have a successful career, you should settle down." Don't compromise yourself for work. The father was silent, but the disappointment in his eyes made Lao Chunyan's heart like a knife.
With complicated feelings, Lao Chunyan began a 16-year long-distance life. During this time, she devoted all her energy to her work and worked hard to improve her professional skills.
Whenever she was alone in the dead of night in an empty room, she would question whether she had made the right choice. But every time she sees a show she hosts getting a good review, or receives a text message from her husband encouraging, she regains her confidence.
In 2009, Lao Chunyan ushered in another important moment in her life - she became a mother. When she picked up her child for the first time, the happiness and joy was unprecedented.
However, the joy of being a first-time mother is quickly diluted by the realities of predicament. Her busy work schedule prevents her from taking care of her children wholeheartedly, and her husband is far away from home to share the burden of childcare.
Every day, Lao Chunyan struggles between her career and her motherhood. She struggled to find time in her busy schedule to take care of her children, but she always felt overwhelmed. When she confidently hosted the show in the studio, she felt guilty that she couldn't be with her children.
After painful thinking, Lao Chunyan made another difficult decision: to send the child back to her hometown and be taken care of by her parents. When she handed the child into the hands of her parents, her heart was like a knife.
Fifth, she is well aware that she will miss many important moments in her child's development. This decision made Lao Chunyan feel tormented. Whenever she thinks of the child, her eyes unconsciously moisten.
She was well aware that she was missing out on precious moments of her child's development. The first time she turned over, the first time she smiled, and the first time she called "Mom", these happy moments that should have belonged to her mother, she didn't have the opportunity to experience them personally.
However, the reality is always cruel. Every time she talked on the phone, she heard the child crying "grandma" instead of "mother", Lao Chunyan would burst into tears. She began to question her decision, filled with contradictions and struggles.
Sometimes, she would cry alone in the middle of the night, blaming herself for not being able to fulfill her responsibilities as a mother. In order to alleviate the pain of thinking about her son, Lao Chunyan will take time to go home to visit her children after work.
But brief reunions are always accompanied by more painful separations. Every time she left, the child's cry was like a sharp blade, piercing her heart deeply. She held back her tears and told herself that it was all temporary and that one day she would make up for the lost time.
This torment has continued, and it has become an eternal pain in Lao Chunyan's heart. She began to think, what is the most important thing in life? Is it the success of your career, or the company of your family? This question has always haunted her mind, making her constantly weigh her career and family.
Sixth, in these 16 years of separation, Lao Chunyan's career has reached a new peak. The ratings of the programs she hosted have reached new highs, and she has also become an "intellectual, elegant, and powerful" female anchor in the eyes of the audience.
Every time she stands in front of the camera, Lao Chunyan can accurately and vividly present news events to the audience with a professional attitude and sharp insight. However, behind the success is endless bitterness and dedication.
In order to ensure the quality of the program, Lao Chunyan always prepares carefully, from topic selection to interviews, to editing the film, every link is meticulous. At the recording site, her professional and dedicated attitude won the respect and praise of her colleagues.
Sometimes she would work for days on end, barely sleepless, for an important news story. However, when the camera went out and the hustle and bustle dispersed, Lao Chunyan's loneliness became stronger and stronger.
Every time she returns to her empty home and looks at the pictures of her husband and children on the wall, she falls into deep longing and self-blame. She began to reflect on her choices, wondering if it was worth sacrificing so much for her career.
As she grew older, Lao Chunyan felt more and more the importance of family. She began to miss those warm moments with her family, and she also missed her husband and children far away.
Every time she talked on the phone, hearing the child's innocent laughter, her heart was both sweet and sour. In the past 16 years, Lao Chunyan's heart has experienced countless struggles and self-denial.
Seventh, she often asks herself: If she had chosen her family and given up her career, what kind of life would she have now? But whenever this thought comes to mind, she will tell herself that there is no if, only to face reality and move on.
Despite her career success, Ms. Lao knew that these achievements would not fill the void in her family's life. She began to think about how to find a balance between career and family.
She realized that true success is not only about a brilliant career, but also about a happy family life. The 16 years of separation have brought Lao Chunyan professional achievements, but they have also made her pay a huge emotional price.
She began to reassess her life goals and think about how she could make up for what she owed to her family in the days to come. In 2016, after 12 years of long-distance marriage and 16 years of separation, Lao Chunyan made an important decision: it was time to return to the family.
She feels that she owes her husband and children so much over the years that she is determined to rebalance her career and family. This decision was fully supported by the family. The husband readily agrees to move to Shanghai, and the children are excited to finally be able to spend time with their mother.
When the whole family was finally reunited, Lao Chunyan's eyes flashed with tears of happiness, and the guilt and longing for many years were released at this moment. After the reunion, Lao Chunyan worked hard to make up for the lack of these years.
She began to learn how to be a competent wife and mother, while also finding a new balance in her work. Although there will inevitably be friction and discomfort in the process, she believes that with love and understanding, all difficulties can be overcome.
Eighth, today's Lao Chunyan has finally found a balance between career and family. She is still the radiant host, but she is also a gentle and considerate wife and loving mother.
Looking back, she is no longer entangled in whether the original choice was correct, but is grateful for everything life has given her and cherishes the happy time of the present. On the balance of career and family, Lao Chunyan finally found her own balance.
Her story has also provided food for thought and inspiration for many professional women.
