During the 2-hour lecture, Chai Jing, as usual, calmly and resolutely recounted her inner thoughts during the interviews. Chai Jing, 36 years old this year, began working as a radio host at the age of 19, before moving on to CCTV. In 2003, Chai Jing’s interviews in SARS wards began to attract public attention. She said she began doing investigative reporting in her 20s, which is unprecedented in the history of world journalism. Looking back on her experiences over the years, she used a quote from the movie \"Shaolin Temple\": \"Both monks and journalists are in professions that require self-discipline,\" to describe the external temptations and internal struggles she faced during her career as a journalist. What I like the most are her responses when answering students’ questions. One student asked, \"Chai Jing, are you happy?\" The clever Chai Jing did not reveal anything about her personal life; instead, she replied with a quote from Hu Shi: “Why worry? Truth is infinite – with each step forward, there is joy.” Even if you’re driving an old, rundown car, as long as it’s moving forward, with a gentle breeze from time to time, that’s happiness.
Are you happy? Answering this question in philosophical terms, I can only say that I personally do not appreciate it.

Chai Jing believes that this way of asking questions is crude and brutal, ignoring the emotional feelings of the person being interviewed. However, she also mentioned the idea that \"initiative equals freedom,\" arguing that although CCTV is constrained by the system, a journalist still has room to exert their abilities
