In the 2009 National Day military parade, Bai Ying, who was attending college, walked through Tiananmen Square with tears in his eyes as a member of the mass parade.
At that time, she never thought that 11 years later, she could host the CCTV National Day Gala with Kang Hui, Zhang Lei and others.
This Tujia girl from the depths of the mountains, relying on her own efforts, stood on the stage of CCTV step by step.
Netizens all said that she had a "Spring Festival Gala face", and Dong Qing also praised her for her innate good qualifications as a literary and art host.
How did the mountain girl counterattack CCTV hosting? Today, let's talk about the story of CCTV rookie White Shadow.
In 1990, Bai Ying was born in Xiangxi, Hunan.
This Tujia girl who grew up in the mountains has had a great dream since she was a child, and she hopes that she can one day stand on the stage and become an excellent host.
At the age of 12, Bai Ying left the mountain and officially embarked on a journey to pursue his dreams.
After years of hard work, she was finally admitted to the Broadcasting Department of the Communication University of China.
During her time at the school, she not only focused on her studies, but also actively participated in various activities on campus.
In 2009, Bai Ying joined the mass parade phalanx of the National Day parade as a student representative, and when she slowly walked through Tiananmen Square with the phalanx, her inner excitement was beyond words.
Although she never spoke to anyone, at that time, she always longed to become a host of CCTV one day.
In 2012, Bai Ying graduated from the Media University, and she did not stay in Beijing as she wished, but returned to Hangzhou and became a host of "Hangzhou News Network".
Although Bai Ying was only a newcomer to the local tv station at that time, she soon became the head of Hangzhou TELEVISION station with her outstanding performance.
In the years after graduation, she has hosted nearly 300 large-scale activities, interviewed nearly 100 representatives of Zhejiang businessmen, and participated in the reports of the two sessions many times.
Hangzhou's local offline activities, from the animation festival to the G20, almost all can see the figure of the white shadow.
Although she is only the host of the local station, she has hosted the same stage with well-known hosts such as Bai Yansong and Chen Luyu of CCTV many times.
In addition to being a host, White Shadow also aspires to be a good journalist herself.
In 2018, Baiying participated in the Fifth Zhejiang Journalists " Good Journalists Tell Good Stories " Speech Contest sponsored by the Zhejiang Journalists Association.
Although the competition was only 3 hours, Bai Ying made unimaginable efforts for this competition, and she changed the manuscripts used during the competition 16 times.
During the day she traveled all over the factory floor to interview workers, and at night she spent the night sorting out interview materials, changing the manuscripts to be used for the competition over and over again.
Finally, the kung fu paid off, and White Shadow won the gold medal in this competition.
She let everyone know that she could be a good journalist except as a host.
In 2019, CCTV's "Host Competition" officially kicked off, and the dream of walking through Tiananmen Square 10 years ago once again surged into her heart, and she resolutely signed up for the competition, and this competition also made her career rise to a higher level again.
On her debut, she impressed Kang Hui and Dong Qing with her smooth and complete self-introduction.
As the last contestant to appear, she rushed directly to the first place in the group with a score of 96.355 points, which made everyone notice her.
In the following competition, she once again showed her advantages, and Zhu Guangquan commented that she could be "obvious but not shallow" when commenting on the news, which is very rare for a news host.
White Shadow can always use her grounded language style to close the distance between her and the audience, and after listening to her speech, even the non-judge Sabine can't help but praise her.
In the first three rounds of the competition, Bai Ying has twice won the first place in the group, and in one round even surpassed the seeded player Zou Yun.
On the final stage, Bai Ying drew a 1v1 duel with Zou Yun, which was called "Immortal Fight" by the on-site players, but unfortunately, Bai Ying finally lost to Zou Yun by less than 1 point and finally won the bronze award in the news category.
Bai Ying, who stopped the national top 6, was not discouraged by this, she told the national audience:
"The race is over, the results are temporary, the future career path is long, we'll see you on the way."
Although Bai Ying's performance in journalism is not top-notch, Dong Qing once commented that she has quite good qualifications as a literary and art host.
After the competition, Baiying not only hosted the "Our Chinese Dream" - Culture into Wanjia CCTV Cultural Activity held in Wufeng, Hubei Province, with Li Sisi on the same stage.
On September 30, 2020, he also hosted a special National Day program with Kang Hui, Zhang Lei and others.
Being able to appear on such a major occasion can be seen in CCTV's affirmation of Bai Ying.
Backstage at the party, Bai Ying said in an interview that she had always felt that Kang Hui and Zhang Lei were star-like beings, but now she could host with her idols, which she had never dared to think of before.
On April 21, 2021, White Shadow debuted on the Financial Channel's "Punctual Finance", and on May 16, she appeared again on the Financial Channel's "First Time", and if nothing else, White Shadow will become the resident host of the Financial Channel.
In addition, her unique literary and artistic host temperament can also allow her to appear on the scene of various evenings.
Many netizens have said that Baiying has a "Spring Festival Gala face", I believe that in the near future, she can not only become a qualified news host, but also an excellent party host, looking forward to the day when she lands on the Spring Festival Gala!
