Recently, however, the TV professional anchor named Zhao Dongyang was set on fire by netizens because the "expression management" in the live broadcast process was out of control. Whether his career can survive is unknown.
If you encounter similar accidents at work, how can you handle them to make everyone happy?
First, always do a good job in expression management. The reason why Zhao Dongyang was criticized by netizens has little to do with the cause of the accident-the teleprompter in the studio failed.
His "true feelings" in the face of sudden changes are the chief culprit that led him to be pushed to the forefront.
Anxious eyes, frowning brows, and pressing the right hand of the remote control crazily. ...
As a TV host, his public relations image should be calm, confident and calm, because he is not only an anchor, but also a symbol of the credibility of TV stations in the eyes of the audience.
Full credibility is the fundamental guarantee for TV stations to exert effective influence on public opinion. Credibility is inseparable from the support of "prestige". The formation of prestige mainly comes from "success", and the maintenance of prestige depends on the enjoyment of prestige, so it is necessary to keep a sufficient distance from the public.
It is no exaggeration to say that from the moment Zhao Dongyang's mistake was exposed to the public, his hope of staying in this post was already slim.
Zhao Dongyang taught us a truth with his own blood:
No matter what happens, you should always control your expression.
For example, even if you have a stomachache and are about to shit in your pants, you should act leisurely and convince others that you are still comfortable.
Second, pin your hopes on yourself. Many people blame Zhao Dongyang's mistake on his "unprofessional improvisation ability", but it is really unprofessional. At that time, there were many people in the studio who were more unprofessional than him.
Zhao Dongyang dared to pick up the remote control and press it wildly because someone told him in the earphone that "the teleprompter is broken, there is a delay, and it can be cut off"-so he dared to "show his true feelings" in front of the camera with confidence.
However, reality made a hard move on him, and the delay device was broken. As a result, this paragraph can't be cut.
Netizens who have been exposed to the live broadcast or media industry must know that the serious anchor in front of the camera may be a joke or a gossip in private-that is to say, Zhao Dongyang's "true feelings" is not "lack of professional quality".
He is just like those netizens who "went back to the city to read articles in situ, but they have already opened a shop to choose equipment, and then they were sent across the street to kill them alone".
Therefore, in daily work, in addition to managing your own expressions, you should also remember not to take chances, prepare for the worst in everything, and don't take it lightly before making sure you enter the "safe zone".
Don't expect others to wipe your ass.
Third, make a good response plan in advance. Zhao Dongyang's failure to manage his expression is his biggest personal problem, but the main responsibility for this accident is not on him.
Kang Hui also met the accident that the studio teleprompter stopped, but he didn't lose his manners like Zhao Dongyang, but naturally lowered his head and looked at the paper manuscript steadily. This kind of treatment can be described as crisp and neat, and it can be called textbook-level response.
The biggest problem exposed by the Zhao Dongyang incident is that his team lacks a response plan for similar situations. If Zhao Dongyang had a prepared paper manuscript at that time, I'm afraid things would not have evolved into such an embarrassing situation.
But the problem is that his team just didn't prepare a paper draft for him.
Therefore, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of one thousand. In our daily work, we must always make plans based on the "worst case" and prepare a "paper draft" in advance.
For example, although I am a copywriter by profession, I always take a TF card and a camera battery when I go out to shoot because of the carelessness of the cameraman. Even if no one ever knows I'm doing it, if something really goes wrong, my response plan will come in handy.
Conclusion To sum up, if we encounter "Zhao Dongyang-style" accidents in our daily work.
First of all, we must control our expressions and make ourselves appear leisurely in front of outsiders; Secondly, don't take chances, always plan for the worst and avoid making low-level mistakes; Finally, consider the possible changes in the work in advance, and prepare an emergency plan for yourself after weighing the advantages and disadvantages in many ways.
Although I feel hopeless, I still hope that Zhao Dongyang can stay in this position. After all, I am familiar with him, and I don't want to change it casually.
It would be a pity if a promising anchor ended his career just because of bad luck.
Even TV hosts should have a chance to make mistakes.
