Autobiography
The first time when the idea of being an anchor or a host occurred to me was in my high school. One day my friends asked me – What would you like to be in the future? – a very commonly seen question in high schools. In response I said I wanted to be a TV host. When I said it, it was like a kind of response instinct, without any hesitation, which even surprised myself.
After graduation, I came a long way from Zhejiang province in south China to Beijing for my higher education in Beijing Language & Culture University. Interestingly, in the second year in the university, I was asked by the university to start up the radio service on the campus. And then in the third year I was invited by Beijing Radio to be a host of a call-in music programme. When I thought that’s the kind of job I was going to take when I graduated, I, surprisingly enough again, accepted the offer from the Ministry of Education. There I worked for nearly seven years as a civil servant, a life which is so different from being a host - a dream that I’ve been holding since high school.
Then in 1998, I got a chance to do an MBA in the University of Nottingham in England. It was a one-year full-time programme. Tough, but interesting. Every day we were surrounded by jargons like ‘core competence’ or ‘SWOT analysis’. It seemed I was going even further away from being a TV host.
However you will never know what’s going to happen next. In 1999, I came back to Beijing. And not long after that, in 2000, I got an offer from CCTV9. After a long way around, I am back, back to my dream - I become an anchor.
In “Notting Hill”, Hugh Grant says, ‘It’s real, but nice.’ Now I’ll say – It’s real, and nice!
