The fact that women hold up half the sky cannot be ignored. We can see some successful women in any industry, what stories they will bring to us as representatives of our inspirational women, what inspiration their deeds will bring to other women, and how much bitterness is hidden behind their success!
Idol Yang Lan
Net assets of $7 billion
Yang Lan is on the list with a net worth of 7 billion? 20 10 hurun rich list? The celebrity host who has interviewed countless celebrities has always maintained her elegance, and her temperament and cultivation have provided an example for women. And her dress is a standard that white-collar women can refer to and imitate. Let's look at Yang Lan, a woman who is always elegant and decent.

In an international art activity in Gao, the artistic director of a famous American ballet company deeply attracted Yang Lan's attention. It comes from a emerald blue brooch on her chest, so quiet but moving. When learning that it was originally China's jewel, Yang Lan was shocked and could not calm for a long time. The birth of Lan extended the symbolic meaning of love and glory to the beauty of oriental elements and the design of modern top technology. And then with Celine Dion CelineDion invited her to give a speech.
Yang Lan: The hardships and failures I have experienced.
My life, like drinking water, is not perfect Some people say that Yang Lan has been doing well, but I just smiled helplessly. I can't explain my hardships and failures to everyone. From 2000 to 2005, I was in this state for five years. This is true both in career and mentality.
1996, I came back from Columbia University. At that time, several major television networks in the United States wanted me to be their photojournalist, covering Asian affairs and Chinese communities in the United States, but I felt that this was still a long way from what I wanted to do. My professional orientation is cultural industry, which is completely different from IT, commerce, finance and industry. When I went to America, I knew I would definitely come back. When I got married, I told Wu Zhi that you already have your own business in America, but I will definitely go back later. You have to think clearly. He said, I'll go back with you. Used by the media at that time? Determined, decisive? These four words. I think these words are very suitable for him. He seems to have given up something, but I don't need to give up anything.
1997, I didn't work for a whole year, just gave birth to children and took care of them. 1998, I cut my hair short, went to Hong Kong Phoenix Satellite TV and started to work as Yang Lan's studio.
The first person I interviewed was Wang. No matter from the program or life level, she is a woman who has a great shock to me. By doing this program, I really established that I did this program to record the relationship between people and the times, and I hope to record history by interviewing people. I majored in English and minored in international economics in college, but my love for history began in middle school. I am Su Like Dongpo, Roosevelt and Churchill. I have read the book "The Leader" written by Nixon and "Interview with the Man of the World" written by farage for a long time. When I took the college entrance examination, I wanted to apply for the history department most. All these have a subtle influence on my career ideal.
I have cultural ideals, and I think China needs a TV platform with a sense of culture and values. I thought of it and did it. In 2000, I worked in Sunshine TV, producing and broadcasting documentary TV programs.
I made a mistake in business. I am a content-oriented person and don't want to be a channel. It seems that I don't want to be a big business chain. The starting point of my business is to make content and then equip this content with a matching operating mechanism. Wanting a glass of milk is a bit like raising a cow yourself. Because no one sells this cup of milk in the market, you must raise your own cows. But I don't think it's a waste of time. After a long time, you have a certain interest and affection for the cause of raising cattle. Cow means cow. Slowly, you see that there are many people like you on the grassland around you, and they also have their own cows or a group of cows, thus forming an industry.
Of course, I'm a little hard on myself. I studied international economy in college, but it's totally different from being a real enterprise. In order to raise this cow, I did something I didn't completely like, at least I didn't completely love. China is not like the United States. The media system in America is very perfect. You just have to do what you are best at. However, at the end of last century, China's media changed from a rigid system to a gradual opening, which required many vivid mechanisms to operate and grow, so as to have a market and personalized creation. This is the characteristic of this era. Maybe in another 30 years, I won't need to make such a choice.
Wu Zhi encouraged me from the beginning, but for me, the transition from being a program to being an enterprise was extremely difficult. From the beginning, I had a big fall, which was Sunshine TV. Now it seems that the impulse of my cultural ideal is far greater than my knowledge level and cognitive level of business and enterprise management.
When Sunshine TV was founded, I was not prepared for business judgment. I built a large TV production center in Hong Kong from the beginning, costing tens of millions, with a lot of original programs, hundreds of hours a year. In fact, this is not in line with market rules. Documentary is a niche market, and it is also based on the current situation that an overseas satellite TV cannot fully land. At that time, I should concentrate more on purchasing programs, reduce production costs, and try not to do so much originality and make such a big production center.
This shows my naivety. Doing business was childish at that time. I still remember that Wu Zhi was startled when I showed him around my newly-built production center with great interest. At that time, he told me that I didn't expect you to pull such a big stall and something would happen.
It must have been five years. I'm very tired. The key is that when your business model is wrong, you will get more and more tired and get twice the result with half the effort. Now it seems that the company actually had problems in capital operation at the beginning. Such a company whose income model has not been confirmed by stable sources and practice, listed at once, and then listed with financial statements, which often leads to contradictions between short-term revenue and long-term strategic positioning, which actually brings great trouble to the entire management team and myself.
I cried many times in those years. Wu Zhi knows me, and I have this cultural ideal. In the later period of Sunshine Satellite TV, a series of capital operations were carried out with companies such as Sina and Bertelsmann. Although many people question that he likes capital operation, in fact, he hopes to introduce different partners through capital operation, and at the same time, this satellite TV platform can last a little longer. I understand his painstaking efforts, which actually shows his love for me. I think so, too, so looking back, it's hard for him, really.
Wu Zhi finally persuaded me to give up. He said that cultural ideals can be realized in many ways, but in such an environment, your business model has gone wrong again. For the benefit of investors, you should also learn to give up. I didn't want to face and admit it at first, but for three years, it was repeated. I also quarreled with him and complained that he made the wrong business decision. We lived more in Shanghai at that time. Once, at home in Shanghai, he talked to me seriously about it. He said, you are an idealist, but now you must become a realist. You should consider this problem. Your withdrawal is the best responsible way for this cause, for investors and for the existing platform.
