Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Family name hatnote Шаблон:Distinguish Шаблон:Update Шаблон:Infobox person Шаблон:Infobox YouTube personality Chai Jing (Шаблон:Zh; born on January 1, 1976) is a Chinese journalist and author.

In 1995, Chai began her broadcast career as a radio host in Hunan Province. From 2001 to 2013, she worked for China Central Television (CCTV) as a well respected investigative reporter and host. In 2012 she published an autobiography, Insight (Шаблон:Zh), which sold more than 1 million copies. Chai is known for her direct, get-to-the point interview technique.

In 2014, Chai produced and self-financed the environmental documentary Under the Dome (Шаблон:Zh), which sparked widespread discussion about pollution in China.[1] Chai and her documentary were banned in China on March 7, 2015.[2] The same year she was named one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people.[3]

Career

Hunan Radio

In 1991, Chai enrolled in Changsha Railway Institute (now Central South University Railway Campus) in Changsha, Hunan Province, majoring in accounting. While still a college student, Chai wrote a letter to Shang Neng, her favorite host at local radio station, asking for an job opportunity. Shang offered her a job at the station. After graduation in 1995, Chai hosted a radio program, Gentle Moonlight (Шаблон:Zh). Three years later, at age 22, she enrolled in Beijing Broadcasting Institute (now Communication University of China) to study television production, while hosting another Hunan radio program, New Youth, (Шаблон:Zh). In 2001, she joined China Central Television (CCTV) as a reporter and presenter, meanwhile working on a Master of Fine Arts at Peking University.

China Central Television

In 2001, Chai became a host and reporter for Horizon Connection (Шаблон:Zh) at CCTV. Two years later, as an investigative reporter, she covered the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) crisis, appearing on camera in white protective clothing and looking pale and thin herself.

After the 2008 Sichuan earthquake in Wenchuan County, Chai went on scene to live with the refugees to experience their severe living conditions. She later compiled the experiences into a program called Seven Days at Yangping. The report raised her reputation as a television reporter.

In 2009, Chai left investigative reporting to anchor 24 Hours (Шаблон:Zh) and host One on One (Шаблон:Zh) for CCTV News. In 2011, she became one of the hosts of the weekend edition of Insight (Шаблон:Zh).

In 2013, Chai delivered her daughter in the United States.[4]

Under the Dome

Шаблон:Main While still pregnant, Chai was told her daughter had a benign tumor. Some rumour says her daughter's tumor may be caused by her smoking during pregnancy, meanwhile some of her friends denied she has the smoking habit. Following her daughter's birth, Chai undertook her own year-long investigation into China's environmental problems, spending nearly 1 million yuan ($167,000) producing a documentary called Under the Dome (Шаблон:Zh), which was released for free online viewing on March 1, 2015.[1] The documentary, with Chai as a matter-of-fact on-stage presenter, was viewed more than 150 million times by March 3 and has since been censored in China.[5]

Stranger: Talking to Jihadists

In July 2017, she moved to Barcelona, Spain with her husband and daughter. In August of the same year, she personally witnessed the terrorist attack on La Rambla and used the incident as an inspiration to investigate Islamic terrorism in Europe. It took several years to produce the six-episode documentary series Шаблон:Ill (Шаблон:Zh). It had been broadcast on her personal YouTube channel on August 17, 2023, with one episode per week. The end of the film shows that her husband Zhao Jia is the camera director of the film.[6] On August 13, the trailer posted on WeChat was quickly blocked.[7]

Controversy

Corruption allegations

On September 19, 2009, a blogger, Wujinger1 (Шаблон:Zh), posted a false article, "Famous CCTV hostess Chai Jing arrested today on suspicion of taking bribes". The next day, Chai herself blogged a denial of the rumor. Several months later, on July 13, 2010, Wujinger1 ran another false article, "CCTV hostess Chai Jing was taken away by the procuratorate again today", alleging that she was again being investigated on corruption charges. It was later discovered that Wujinger1 was Wu Zhibo, who wanted to seek attention. He apologized to Chai, saying she was his idol, and he wanted the public to know more about Chai.[8][9][10]
