In today's Internet era, live broadcast has become a new way for many public figures to become popular, and Da Bing, who was once a smash hit, is one of them.
He broadcast live, and 100,000 fans watched. But Da Bing insisted on not bringing the goods, and sent pictures and texts last night in response to the suspension of the broadcast. Why is that?
The ice was hidden in the snow
Da Bing, born in 1980, formerly known as Yan Bing, comes from a scholarly family. Both parents are professors of traditional Chinese medicine, and Da Bing did not inherit his parents' medical career, but developed a strong interest in literature and art.
In college, he chose to major in landscape oil painting, and after graduation, he entered Shandong TV to work. In the early days, he was just an ordinary staff member behind the scenes, and participated in camera, art and other miscellaneous work.
Da Bing really walked in front of the screen and became a familiar face to the audience when he was 22 years old. At that time, Shandong Satellite TV launched the variety show "Sunshine Fast Lane", and Da Bing became the location host of the show.
Because his relaxed and natural hosting style is very different from traditional hosts, he quickly won the love of the audience. In 2002, he officially succeeded his predecessor as the show's resident host.
Liu Yifei, Zhang Jiani and other young stars at that time participated in his show, further expanding the influence of the show. At that time, Da Bing was not only the host of the show, but also like the "big brother next door".
However, Da Bing, whose career is on the rise, did not expect that he would fall into a workplace turmoil. Due to the change in the management of the TV station, a new director has been replaced, and the new leader obviously does not pay much attention to the "ratings guarantee" of Da Bing.
At that time, Da Bing was full of confidence in his program and popularity, and felt that with years of hosting experience and the support of the audience, he did not need to cater to the new director.
However, he refused to express his allegiance to the new director and missed the opportunity to win over the relationship, which soon made him an "outlier" in the eyes of the new director.
What followed was a cold treatment of the big ice. The station gradually reduced his appearance time on the show, and the most obvious change was that he was transferred to the second scene of "Sunshine Fast Lane".
In each episode of the show, Da Bing's appearance time was compressed to only about ten seconds, and he gradually became the "passer-by" in the show from the focus of the audience's eyes.
And that's not all. The TV station pays the salary according to the time of the host's appearance, and the considerable income brought by the high ratings is now only a few hundred yuan per month.
The winters in Jinan are cold and long, and Da Bing's monthly salary is difficult to maintain even basic living expenses, let alone heating bills. Seeing that the heating bill at home could not be paid, Da Bing's life gradually fell into trouble.
In such an embarrassing situation, Da Bing persisted for a while, but finally chose to leave Shandong Satellite TV.
Wandering around
After bidding farewell to the aura of the TV station, Da Bing started his life as a "backpacker" and became a free man who traveled all over the world.
At that time, Da Bing chose to leave the bustling city and go to Lijiang, Yunnan. Da Bing opened a bar in this tranquil land and lived a life away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
For him, this is not only a career, but also an opportunity to withdraw from the complicated Vanity Fair in the outside world and return to himself.
In the bars of Lijiang, Da Bing's lifestyle becomes free and fulfilling. During the day, he shares stories of his travels with visitors from afar; At night, he sat on the stage of the bar, playing the guitar and singing those folk songs with a touch of sadness and warmth.
His bar is not only a place for drinks and music, but also a space full of souls, gathering all kinds of travelers, their stories, their joys and sorrows, all collide and merge in this small space.
In addition to running a bar in Lijiang, Da Bing also traveled frequently and began his extensive backpacker life.
The Sichuan-Tibet line, the Yunnan-Tibet line, and the Qinghai-Tibet line, these remote and desolate places, have left his footprints. Carrying a simple bag, he crossed mountains and rivers, and walked through remote areas of Tibet and Xinjiang.
During a trip to Tibet, Da Bing met a group of children living in the Pamirs. He saw that the children were barely able to keep warm in the winter because of the harsh climate, and many of them were wearing worn clothes.
At that moment, Da Bing was deeply touched and he was determined to do something for these children. He began to collect winter clothes and, through his connections and influence, delivered batches of warm clothes to these children.
Da Bing felt the satisfaction of using his own power to change the lives of others. Since then, helping those living in poverty has become an important part of his backpacker life.
As the journey accumulated, Da Bing began to record what he saw, heard, and felt. Although he has never received formal training in writing, his writing has a natural sincerity and emotion.
This straightforward way of expression makes his words deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In 2013, he published his first book, They Are the Happiest.
Each story in the book comes from the real experience of his journey, and the ups and downs of the characters' lives, their pursuit and struggle for happiness, are vividly displayed through Da Bing's words.
"They Are the Happiest" was an instant seller after its publication, making Da Bing a best-selling author almost overnight.
Immediately afterwards, he successively launched works such as "Good, Touch Your Head" and "Amitabha Buddha", forming a series that was later called the "Jianghu Trilogy".
However, as Da Bing's works continued to sell well, so did the controversy about him. Some have questioned the overly idealistic nature of the stories in his books, and even doubted the veracity of some of the plots.
In the face of these doubts, Da Bing did not respond too much, but chose to express his attitude by continuing to create and travel.
At the same time, in addition to writing, Da Bing has also dabbled in music, photography and other fields, and his lifestyle has become more and more diversified.
The live broadcast helped him become popular
Time flies, after several years of precipitation and drifting, Da Bing's life trajectory gradually deviates from the public's field of vision. However, with the rise of short video platforms and the live broadcast industry, Da Bing ushered in an unexpected opportunity.
In 2024, Da Bing stepped into the field of live streaming and chose to show his unique lifestyle to the public through a short video platform.
At first, his live stream content was not specifically designed, just sharing his daily motorcycle riding journey with the audience. The live stream of the ride allows people to follow his footage, traverse endless highways and enjoy the spectacular scenery of nature.
Although Da Bing's live broadcast of riding was not outstanding at first, his calm and real attitude towards life touched many viewers. He rides along the road, stopping occasionally to share the scenery with the audience or to chat about the interesting stories he encounters.
Da Bing's live broadcast really began to become popular because he changed from simple riding to in-depth interaction with the audience. In this space, the audience can not only hear the stories of his journey, but also interact deeply with him, confiding in him the confusion and pain in his life.
Once, a netizen connected in Da Bing's live broadcast room and admitted that he was standing on the 28th floor, ready to end his life. The young man recounted the domestic violence and depression he had endured since he was a child, and he was beaten and scolded by his father.
When his mother left home, the whole family was torn apart, and he was even sent to a juvenile detention center because of a violent conflict with his father when he was a teenager.
After leaving the juvenile detention center, this young man never found hope in life, and felt that his life had been completely ruined. This heart-wrenching self-description touched everyone in the live broadcast room.
Da Bing listened quietly to the young man's confiding in front of the screen, and comforted and encouraged him in the most sincere language. He told the young man that no matter how difficult life is, there is always a chance to start over, and as long as you face it bravely, you can always find a way out.
Da Bing also advised him to leave that traumatic environment and go to sea to become a seafarer, change the environment, change the way of life, and find a new life.
In the end, with the help of everyone, the young man gave up the idea of suicide and rekindled his hope for life.
This kind of interaction makes Da Bing's live broadcast room no longer just a simple entertainment venue, it has become a community full of warmth and care.
The heartwarming stories in Da Bing's live broadcast are far more than this. On another occasion, a 17-year-old girl told her predicament online: her mother was sick, she was unemployed at home, and her family's financial situation was no longer able to maintain a normal life, and even three meals a day became a problem.
Faced with the girl in distress, Da Bing didn't say anything, but quickly asked his staff to transfer 1,000 yuan to the little girl to help her solve her urgent needs.
In addition, he also found a job for this girl with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan. This move moved the audience in the live broadcast room, and also made more people realize Da Bing's kindness and sincerity.
As these authentic and touching stories continue to emerge, Da Bing's live broadcast room has attracted more and more fans, and he has provided practical help to those living in difficult situations through live broadcasts, giving them the motivation to regain their strength.
In the live broadcast industry, in order to pursue traffic and profits, many anchors will frequently bring goods in the live broadcast room, and even over-commercialize. However, Da Bing rejected all these temptations.
Although the traffic in his live broadcast room has been considerable, and many merchants have thrown an olive branch to him with goods, he has always adhered to his bottom line and refused to monetize by bringing goods.
Da Bing said frankly that many of the viewers who are now following his live broadcast are children who grew up watching him host the show 20 years ago, and he can't bear to use the love and trust of these viewers in exchange for commercial benefits.
Just last night, Da Bing posted a response to the suspension of the broadcast, probably because the popularity was too great, and he wanted to drop it.
Today, Da Bing's live broadcast room has become a place where many people seek solace and strength.
Da Bing did not provide a shortcut to wealth or success, but through his words and deeds, he taught people how to find the meaning of life in difficult situations and how to regain hope in confusion.
