Oprah Winfrey is another outstanding example of the American Dream.

She was born in the southern state of Mississippi, where more than a century after the Civil War, discrimination against blacks is still rampant, and the Ku Klux Klan, which pursues white supremacy, will have a very intuitive sense of this.

Her childhood was extremely bumpy, and it can even be said to be miserable, her biological father was serving a prison sentence, and her biological mother gave birth to several younger siblings with different boyfriends.

And that's not the worst of it, when she was 9 years old, she was assaulted by a cousin at an uncle's house, and after that, the experience became a regular occurrence - including her mother's boyfriend.

At the age of 14, she became pregnant, and with the support of her father, who had already been released from prison, she gave birth to the child, but the child died two weeks after birth.

But fortunately, after that, she lived with her father, finally entered college, and after graduation, successfully joined the ABC (American Broadcasting Corporation) Chicago branch WLS TV station.

At first, she was a reporter, but because she often couldn't maintain neutrality, to be specific, she was a bit like Daiyu, who often cried bitterly because of something during the interview or during the broadcast.

Finally, she went to interview a woman who had been sexually assaulted, and then in front of the camera, crying and talking about her childhood experience ......of the same abuse.

Such a noisy affair made her superiors think that she was not up to her job.

Naturally, there will be a Bole, the owner of WLS TV Dennis Swanson, who thinks that Oprah's personality may be suitable for hosting a talk show, and then handed over the lowest-rated talk show "Chicago Morning" to Oprah to host.

Here, most of the time it means some waste utilization.

But what I didn't expect was that Dennis's attempt made an outstanding talk show host.

Oprah, who was a very unsuccessful news reporter and host, finally found a platform that suits her

Although she, a black woman, first broke into the world of talk shows dominated by white men, and hosted "Chicago Morning," which set a record for the lowest ratings, she soon found her senses.

She boldly showed her true self in the show, shed tears when she likes to cry, disclosed her childhood experience of being sexually assaulted, and narrowed the distance with the audience with her "sincerity, confession" frank style, and quickly won the audience's favor.

A month later, the show became the first program of the year to break the record of high ratings.

Three months later, the show surpassed Phil Donner's to become the number one viewer in the gold medal program, which had dominated the industry for 10 years.

In September 1985, "Chicago Morning" was extended to an hour and named "Oprah Winfrey Talk Show" after her, and it was broadcast simultaneously in 120 cities across the country.

After that, a popular talk show and an American superstar were born.

On average, one show every two days attracted an average of more than 33 million U.S. residents every week, and even the president lined up to ...... her show.

She is so popular in the United States that many people say that if she runs for president of the United States, she will definitely succeed.

…………

"I've been in contact with the main creative team of the talk show several times, and they are very interested in interviewing people like Feng You, but in order to make the show more exciting, they need to know some of your preferences,"

On the way to Harp (Harpo is an inversion of Oprah's name) entertainment group, Buchanan, the facilitator of this matter, was a little excited, and it was not easy to be on such a popular talk show.

Moreover, if the effect is excellent, it can play a good role in promoting NEXTDOOR and Coin Star.

"I can understand," Feng Yiping nodded, whether the talk show is wonderful or not, in addition to the host's own skills, the wonderful interaction between the host and the guests is also very important.

If because they don't understand each other, the host and the guests have been reluctant to communicate, false communication, and ineffective communication, and the host and guests can't interact, and the guests on the scene can't interact with each other, then the effect of the show will naturally not be .......

Originally, Oprah's team should have collected relevant information on these issues, but they only had one show every two days on average, and if they only relied on themselves, when they met guests like Feng Yiping outside the United States, it was conceivable that the quality would not be too high.

It's just that when they arrived at the office building of Hapu Entertainment Group, everyone's faces were a little unpleasant, and they were greeted by just a small staff member of the public relations department.

No matter how powerful Oprah is, no matter what kind of situation McDonald's is in now, Hapu Entertainment Group is always inferior to McDonald's, even McDonald's has sent a vice president-level operations director downstairs to greet Feng Yiping, Hapu Entertainment Group's arrangement today is really quite inappropriate.

It was Feng Yiping who recovered first, he was not a person who liked to talk about pomp and circumstance, besides, he had heard of the arrogance of these people in the entertainment industry, and the Oprah talk show is currently so popular, it is natural for them to be more bullish.

Besides, with his current status, it would be too bad to deal with such a small staff, and he also thanked the other party, "Thank you!"

"A few of you here, please,"

Feng Yiping and the three of them, after drinking a cup of coffee in a conference room, only a few staff members with folders walked in, they didn't seem to be very old, naturally a few years older than Feng Yiping, but they should be less than 30.

A blonde clerk in the lead looked Feng Yiping up and down several times, "Mr. Feng?"

"I am," Feng Yiping sat at the conference table, clasped his hands, and put them on his upturned thighs, his movements were very ordinary, but he still looked inexplicably imposing.

But Americans have always disrespected authority, and on their home turf, the blonde clerk said, "If there is no problem, you will be the first Chinese to appear on our column,"

Among them, there is pride, and there is obvious contempt for China.

Feng Yiping was not annoyed by such a lack of attention, but this sentence really made him quite unhappy,"

"Each other, it's the first time I've agreed to be on a talk show,"

He is not only the richest man in Chinese mainland, but also a world-renowned young scholar, a young entrepreneurial idol of the world's youth, and a well-known entrepreneur in Silicon Valley, he believes that his first appearance on American TV will still be very attractive.

There is only one of them, but there are many talk shows in the United States, they are proud, and they can be equally proud.

Sure enough, as soon as he is hard, the other party is soft, after all, in terms of wealth, Feng Yiping threw them out a few streets, Hapu Entertainment has a talk show with a weekly audience of more than 30 million, and Feng Yiping also has an NEXTDOOR website with more than 20 million active registered users.

"Mr. Feng, our talk show column has always been closely focused on life and close to life, hoping to let the public care about social focus issues through the program, so as to play a certain preventive role, therefore, some issues may be more sensitive, can you accept these?"

"I believe in Miss Oprah's connotation and professional qualities, and I believe that she will strike a balance between respecting the privacy of the guests and satisfying the needs of the audience," Feng Yiping then pushed the topic back.

He has watched a few episodes of Oprah's show recently, and overall, Oprah looks like an aunt, and she is like the aunt next door in the show, and the overall style is still more humane.

It's just that her performance today is really not like the aunt next door, and guests like Feng Yiping came to her company without even showing their faces?

As if there was surveillance in this conference room, not long after Feng Yiping began to look around, Oprah, who was wearing a purple dress and had a self-contained face on his face, walked in with two people with a light smile, "Hello Feng, it's nice to meet you,"

"Hello Ms. Oprah,"

This is really an aunt, how to say it, wearing haute couture still doesn't highlight a bit of noble temperament, no wonder so many people will open their hearts to her, those celebrities, really don't feel that she will bring any threat - this is indeed a rare innate advantage.

However, the aunt was not very friendly, "Feng, we need more information about you,"

There wasn't much of a problem with the words, but the tone of the speech sounded really uncomfortable.

Feng Yiping thought, is this because she is too proud, or is it because she is too young? Or is it because of the color of her skin? Will the richest man in a white country have such an experience?

The phone vibrated in his pocket, and Feng Yiping looked at it, "I'm sorry, I have to answer a call,"

Today's series of encounters made him not too keen on this popular talk show now, they were not very polite, Feng Yiping felt that he didn't need to be too polite, so he picked it up at the table, "Hello, Mr. Cantalupo, tomorrow is it? Okay, then see you tomorrow," (To be continued.) )
